Acts 21
1 After we had torn ourselves away from them, we sailed directly to Cos, and the next day on to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.
Neng damdi raajeng thiin eno kati. Ju adi phangla ih daan jopkaat eno, Kos ni thok tahe, erah saalih adi Rhodes ni, erah dowa ih Patara ni kati.
2 Finding a ship crossing over to Phoenicia, we boarded it and set sail.
Erah ni kah eno Phoenesia ni wangte juukaari esiit japtup kati, erah di duukah eno daansoon wangti.
3 After sighting Cyprus and passing south of it, we sailed on to Syria and landed at Tyre, where the ship was to unload its cargo.
Erah di Kipras ah japtup kati, juumeh ko ih Siria ni daanjoop wanti. Tair hah adi juukaang ko wang eno, juukaari ah ih huikhaak loong ah datthiin eta.
4 We sought out the disciples in Tyre and stayed with them seven days. Through the Spirit they kept telling Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
Erah hah adi hanpiite loong ah damdi sa sinat tongthiinti. Chiiala chaan nawa ih Pool suh neng ih Jerusalem nah nak kaat theng ngeh ih baat rumta.
5 But when our time there had ended, we set out on our journey. All the disciples, with their wives and children, accompanied us out of the city and knelt down on the beach to pray with us.
Enoothong neng damdi jen roong tongthiin eno, seng kaat theng lamko ih dokchap kati. Samnuthung dowa miloong ah neng sanuh nyia neng sah loong ah siit ano juukaang adi roongra rum taha, erah di seng lakuh ni tong eno rangsoomti.
6 And after we had said our farewells, we went aboard the ship, and they returned home.
Eno seng loong ah raajeng mui eno, juukaari ni toon du ti neng ah engaak wang ih rumta.
7 When we had finished our voyage from Tyre, we landed at Ptolemais, where we greeted the brothers and stayed with them for a day.
Seng Tair dowa juulam ih karoh karoh eti eno Ptomais ni tong kati, erah ni hanpiite loong asuh jengse ah ra eno sasiit tong kati.
8 Leaving the next day, we went on to Caesarea and stayed at the home of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the Seven.
Erah saalih adi dokchap eno Kaiseria ni thokti. Erah ni Ewanjelist Philip nok ni jam kati, wasinat tung dowa heh Jerusalem ni tongte kristaan loong chosokte danje dowa.
9 He had four unmarried daughters who prophesied.
Heh sah jaalah wabajiiji hasong maangkah ang rumta eno neng Rangte tiit baatte ang rumta.
10 After we had been there several days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.
Agubas khowah Judaia nawa thok taha doh seng erah ni sa sinat tongti.
11 Coming over to us, he took Paul’s belt, bound his own feet and hands, and said, “The Holy Spirit says: ‘In this way the Jews of Jerusalem will bind the owner of this belt and hand him over to the Gentiles.’”
Heh seng reeni wang haano, Pool romkhe ah suh eta, eno romkhe ah ih heh teewah lak alah ah kit ano jengta, “Esa Chiiala ih amah liiha: Roomkhe changte warah Jerusalem nah Jehudi loong ih emamah ih khak ano Ranglajatte loong suh korum ah.”
12 When we heard this, we and the people there pleaded with Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
Erah chaat eno, erah hah dowa phoh ano loong nep roongjeng taha, Jerusalem nah lakaat weetheng ngeh ih taat chuut hu ti.
13 Then Paul answered, “Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.”
Eno Pool ih ngaakli tahe, “Sen tiimte hu lan, nga tenthun tiim esuh saap thuk lan? Ngah Jerusalem nah emah ih kitsuh luulu takhookham kang, Teesu Jisu raangtaan ih etek esuh nep khookham hang.”
14 When he would not be dissuaded, we fell silent and said, “The Lord’s will be done.”
Lakah jen nuune baattaan keeno liiti, “Teesu tenthun mongtham ju toom ang ah.”
15 After these days, we packed up and went on to Jerusalem.
Chomroe tong eno, seng huikhaak ah jamjaang eno Jerusalem ni kaat suh dok chapti.
16 Some of the disciples from Caesarea accompanied us, and they took us to stay at the home of Mnason the Cypriot, an early disciple.
Kaisiria nawa heliphante mararah ah seng damdi roong ra taha eno Mnason nok ni naangjam suh siitkaat tahe—heh langla Kipras hah nawa angta maang ih dook Rangte menjatte ah.
17 When we arrived in Jerusalem, the brothers welcomed us joyfully.
Jerusalem ni thok kino, Rangte menjatte loong ih tenroon woksoon ih lam banchoh tahe.
18 The next day Paul went in with us to see James, and all the elders were present.
Erah saalih adi Jeems damdoh chomui suh Pool seng damdi roong ra taha; eno erah ni chaas nawa mihak phokhoh loong eje ang rumta.
19 Paul greeted them and recounted one by one the things that God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.
Pool ih jengkhaapse ah ra rum ano Ranglajatte loong damdi heh teewah Rangte ih mamah ih maakta nyia mootkaat thukta tiit ah baat rumta.
20 When they heard this, they glorified God. Then they said to Paul, “You see, brother, how many thousands of Jews have believed, and all of them are zealous for the law.
Pool jeng ah boichaat rum ano loongtang ih Rangte rangphoong rumta. Eno li rumta, “Seng loong phoh ano Pool, an ih tup eh hu haajaat mathan Jehudi loong ah rangsoomte eh hoonla, enoothong neng loong ah Hootthe lam ah phanroh ih rumha.
21 But they are under the impression that you teach all the Jews who live among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or observe our customs.
Jehudi loong ih jen japchaat eta, an ih Ranglajatte deek akaan ni songte Jehudi loong suh Moses Hootthe ah lakah kap theng nyia nengsuh nengsah khoopkhan banlam ah lahoon theng adoleh Jehudi banlam ah lakah kap theng ngeh ih nyootsoottu rah ah.
22 What then should we do? They will certainly hear that you have come.
Neng ih an thok ah jat jaatjaat eha. Eno, mamah etheng ah?
23 Therefore do what we advise you. There are four men with us who have taken a vow.
Seng ih thun hi abah an ih emah re udoh phan ah. Arah di thoomhoon choi mih wabaji je ah.
24 Take these men, purify yourself along with them, and pay their expenses so they can have their heads shaved. Then everyone will know that there is no truth to these rumors about you, but that you also live in obedience to the law.
Chingkhothook thengnah neng damdoh roong kah uno neng lakkhoom ladi thaang ah koh eh uh; eno juuba neng khoh ah sui eh ah. Emah ang ano ba mirep ih an tiit waanla ah tiit hu ruurangla ngeh ih thun rum ah, erah nang ebah heh teewah jaatjaat eh Moses Hootthe jun ih songtongla ngeh ih thun rumho.
25 As for the Gentile believers, we have written to them our decision that they must abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality.”
Enoothong Ranglajatte dowa o mina ih Rangte men jat ha, erah loong asuh seng roongwaanti tiit ah le jen raangmaat eti; romchoi phaksat ah laphaksat theng, khoisat luiamaan ah laphak theng, hesih laphak theng, adoleh mih damdoh roomjup roomtong laje theng adoleh sak lapiin theng ngeh ah.”
26 So the next day Paul took the men and purified himself along with them. Then he entered the temple to give notice of the date when their purification would be complete and the offering would be made for each of them.
Erah raangtaan ih Pool ih miloong ah siit ano erah saalih adi neng damdi chingkhothook roong kata. Eno Pool Rangteenok ni wang ano leeraang ah amah raang ano rapwanta; chingkhothook ah sa mathan doh thoon ah adoleh khojoop ah wasiit wasiit suh mabah hoonkot theng ah.
27 When the seven days were almost over, some Jews from the province of Asia saw Paul at the temple. They stirred up the whole crowd and seized him,
Sa sinat thoon nanah di, Esia hah nawa Jehudi loong ih Pool Rangteenok ni japtup wang rum taha. Neng loong ah ih mih khoontongta loong ah phaangdat thuk rum ano Pool ah jokhak eh rumta.
28 crying out, “Men of Israel, help us! This is the man who teaches everywhere against our people and against our law and against this place. Furthermore, he has brought Greeks into the temple and defiled this holy place.”
Neng loong ah riiraak rumta, “Ijirel noksong loong!” “Roong johe! Arah mih ah langbo ah noongrep ni Ijirel mih thetbaatte, Moses Hootthe thetbaatte nyia arah Rangteenok thetbaatte ra ah. Eno Ranglajatte mih nep siitwan haano arah esa Rangteenok ah nyaansaan wang hala!”
29 For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, and they assumed that Paul had brought him into the temple.
(Erah jeng rumta ah langla Epheses nawa Triphimus ah Pool damdi samnuh ni japtup rumta, eno neng ih thunta Rangteenok ni Pool ih nopsiit eh wan hala ngeh ah.)
30 The whole city was stirred up, and the people rushed together. They seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple, and at once the gates were shut.
Samnuh thungtang hoongrok haphaang chikrokta, miloong ah khoonsoon ano, Rangteenok nawa Pool ah dok hoom ih kaat rumta. Lakdamdam eh Rangteenok paakaalu ah tangsak eh rumta.
31 While they were trying to kill him, the commander of the Roman regiment received a report that all Jerusalem was in turmoil.
Room nok hah arami saahaap ih Jerusalem ni chikrokla ah japchaat tokdi miloong ah ih Pool tek haat taatchung rumta.
32 Immediately he took some soldiers and centurions and ran down to the crowd. When the people saw the commander and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.
Erah japchaat ano arami loong nyia saahaap wahoh loong ah siit ano saahaap elong ah lakdamdam eh miloong ah taangko karumta. Arami loong ah siit ano kaat kano, miloong ah ih Pool buh rumta ah toihaat eh rumta.
33 The commander came up and arrested Paul, ordering that he be bound with two chains. Then he asked who he was and what he had done.
Saahaap elong ah Pool taangko wang ano jowangta eno jaanruh enyi ih kit thuk rumta. Erah lih adi chengta, “Arah mih ah o angla, tiimjih thet kota?”
34 Some in the crowd were shouting one thing, and some another. And since the commander could not get at the truth because of the uproar, he ordered that Paul be brought into the barracks.
Mih lomkhoon rumta dowa wasiit maama wasiit maama eh riiraak rumta. Hoongrok haphaang ang kano saahaap elong ah ih tiimjih mamah angla erah tajat jota, erah raangtaan eh heh mina loong asuh Pool ah sipaahi tongtheng adi siitkaat thuk rumta.
35 When Paul reached the steps, he had to be carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the mob.
Miloong ah Pool likapkap eh kaat rum kano sipaahi loong ah ih Pool ah toonhui eh rumta tiimnge liidi miloong ah woma si thung ang rumta.
36 For the crowd that followed him kept shouting, “Away with him!”
Miloong helih helih phanri rumta, “Tek haat etheng tek haat etheng ngeh ah!”
37 As they were about to take Paul into the barracks, he asked the commander, “May I say something to you?” “Do you speak Greek?” he replied.
Arami loong ah ih Pool ah sipaahi tongtheng ah noppi nanah di saahaap elong asuh chengta: “An suh tiim atiim tambaat weeha?” “Grik jenglam ih waanho, miijeng nih kah eh uh?” Saahaap elong ah ih chengta.
38 “Aren’t you the Egyptian who incited a rebellion some time ago and led four thousand members of the ‘Assassins’ into the wilderness?”
“Miinyah marang changrook donghoom uno hajaat baji mina phisang hah ni siiara hoonkaat thukte Ijip mih ah an tanih angko?”
39 But Paul answered, “I am a Jew from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no ordinary city. Now I beg you to allow me to speak to the people.”
Pool ih baatta, “Ngah Jehudi nok hah, Kilia dowa Tarsas samnuthung ni tup hang ah. Miloong ah damdoh roongwaan weethuk hang.”
40 Having received permission, Paul stood on the steps and motioned to the crowd. A great hush came over the crowd, and he addressed them in Hebrew:
Saahaap elong ah ih jeng thukta, eno Pool ah diihutok adi toonchap ano miloong asuh nak hoopti an ngeh ih heh lak japta. Miloong ah tikdat kano Pool Hebru jengdi baatta:
