< Acts 18 >

1 And after these things, having left Athens, he came to Corinth;
Lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí, Paulu jáde kúrò ni Ateni lọ sí Kọrinti.
2 and finding a certain Jew by name Aquila, of Pontus by race, just come from Italy, and Priscilla his wife, (because Claudius had ordered all the Jews to leave Rome, ) came to them,
Ó sì rí Júù kan tí a ń pè ní Akuila, tí a bí ni Pọntu, tí ó ti Itali dé ní lọ́ọ́lọ́ọ́, pẹ̀lú Priskilla aya rẹ̀; nítorí tí Kilaudiu pàṣẹ pé, kí gbogbo àwọn Júù jáde kúrò ní Romu. Ó sì tọ̀ wọ́n lọ láti rí wọn.
3 and because they were of the same trade abode with them, and wrought. For they were tent-makers by trade.
Nítorí tí òun náà jẹ́ oníṣẹ̀-ọwọ́ kan náà, ó bá wọn jókòó, ó sì ń ṣiṣẹ́: nítorí àgọ́ pípa ni iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wọn.
4 And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks.
Ó sì ń fi ọ̀rọ̀ wé ọ̀rọ̀ pẹ̀lú wọn nínú Sinagọgu lọ́jọjọ́ ìsinmi, ó sì ń yí àwọn Júù àti àwọn Giriki lọ́kàn padà.
5 And when both Silas and Timotheus came down from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in respect of the word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
Nígbà tí Sila àti Timotiu sì tí Makedonia wá, ọ̀rọ̀ náà ká Paulu lára, ó ń fihàn fún àwọn Júù pé, Jesu ni Kristi náà.
6 But as they opposed and spoke injuriously, he shook his clothes, and said to them, Your blood be upon your own head: I [am] pure; from henceforth I will go to the nations.
Nígbà tí wọ́n sì sàtakò rẹ̀, tí wọ́n sì sọ̀rọ̀-òdì, ó gbọ́n aṣọ rẹ̀, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ̀jẹ̀ yin ń bẹ lórí ara yin; ọrùn mi mọ́: láti ìsinsin yìí lọ, èmi yóò tọ àwọn aláìkọlà lọ.”
7 And departing thence he came to the house of a certain [man], by name Justus, who worshipped God, whose house adjoined the synagogue.
Ó sì lọ kúrò níbẹ̀, ó wọ ilé ọkùnrin kan tí a ń pé ní Titu Justu, ẹni tí o ń sin Ọlọ́run; ilé rẹ̀ sì wà lẹ́gbẹ̀ Sinagọgu tímọ́tímọ́.
8 But Crispus the ruler of the synagogue believed in the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing, believed, and were baptised.
Krisipu, olórí Sinagọgu, sì gba Olúwa gbọ́ pẹ̀lú gbogbo ilé rẹ̀, àti ọ̀pọ̀ nínú àwọn ara Kọrinti, nígbà tí wọ́n gbọ́, wọ́n gbàgbọ́, a sì bamitiisi wọn.
9 And the Lord said by vision in [the] night to Paul, Fear not, but speak and be not silent;
Olúwa sì sọ fún Paulu lóru ni ojúran pé, “Má bẹ̀rù, ṣá máa sọ, má sì ṣe pa ẹnu rẹ̀ mọ́.
10 because I am with thee, and no one shall set upon thee to injure thee; because I have much people in this city.
Nítorí tí èmí wà pẹ̀lú rẹ, kò sì sí ẹni tí yóò dìde sí ọ láti pa ọ lára: nítorí mo ní ènìyàn púpọ̀ ni ìlú yìí.”
11 And he remained [there] a year and six months, teaching among them the word of God.
Ó sì jókòó níbẹ̀ ní ọdún kan àti oṣù mẹ́fà, ó ń kọ́ni ní ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run láàrín wọn.
12 But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one consent rose against Paul and led him to the judgment-seat,
Nígbà tí Gallioni sì jẹ baálẹ̀ Akaia, àwọn Júù fi ìfìmọ̀ṣọ̀kan dìde sí Paulu wọn sì mú un wá síwájú ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́.
13 saying, This [man] persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.
Wọ́n wí pé, “Ọkùnrin yìí ń yí àwọn ènìyàn lọ́kàn padà, láti máa sin Ọlọ́run lòdì sí òfin.”
14 But as Paul was going to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If indeed it was some wrong or wicked criminality, O Jews, of reason I should have borne with you;
Nígbà tí Paulu ń fẹ́ dáhùn, Gallioni wí fún àwọn Júù pé, “Ìbá ṣe pé ọ̀ràn búburú tàbí tí jàgídíjàgan kan ni, èmi ìbá gbè yín, ẹ̀yin Júù,
15 but if it be questions about words, and names, and the law that ye have, see to it yourselves; [for] I do not intend to be judge of these things.
Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ti ṣe ọ̀ràn nípa ọ̀rọ̀ àti orúkọ, àti ti òfin yín ni, ki ẹ̀yin bojútó o fúnra yín; nítorí tí èmi kò fẹ́ ṣe onídàájọ́ nǹkan báwọ̀nyí.”
16 And he drove them from the judgment-seat.
Ó sì lé wọn kúrò ní ibi ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́.
17 And having all laid hold on Sosthenes the ruler of the synagogue, they beat him before the judgment-seat. And Gallio troubled himself about none of these things.
Gbogbo àwọn Giriki sì mú Sostene, olórí Sinagọgu, wọ́n sì lù ú níwájú ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́. Gallioni kò sì bìkítà fún nǹkan wọ̀nyí.
18 And Paul, having yet stayed [there] many days, took leave of the brethren and sailed thence to Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila, having shorn his head in Cenchrea, for he had a vow;
Paulu sì dúró sí i níbẹ̀ lọ́jọ́ púpọ̀, nígbà tí ó sì dágbére fún àwọn arákùnrin, ó bá ọkọ̀ ojú omi lọ si Siria, àti Priskilla àti Akuila pẹ̀lú rẹ̀; ó tí fá orí rẹ̀ ni Kenkerea, nítorí tí ó ti jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́.
19 and he arrived at Ephesus, and left them there. But entering himself into the synagogue he reasoned with the Jews.
Ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá sí Efesu, ó sì fi wọ́n sílẹ̀ níbẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n òun tìkára rẹ̀ wọ inú Sinagọgu lọ, ó sì bá àwọn Júù fi ọ̀rọ̀ wé ọ̀rọ̀.
20 And when they asked him that he would remain for a longer time [with them] he did not accede,
Nígbà tí wọ́n sì bẹ̀ ẹ́ pé, kí ó bá àwọn jókòó díẹ̀ sí i, ó kọ̀.
21 but bade them farewell, saying, [I must by all means keep the coming feast at Jerusalem]; I will return to you again, if God will: and he sailed away from Ephesus.
Ṣùgbọ́n ó dágbére fún wọn, ó sì wí pé, “Èmi ó tún padà tọ̀ yín wá, bí Ọlọ́run bá fẹ́.” Ó sì lọ kúrò láti Efesu.
22 And landing at Caesarea, and having gone up and saluted the assembly, he went down to Antioch.
Nígbà tí ó sì tí gúnlẹ̀ ni Kesarea, ó gòkè lọ si Jerusalẹmu láti kí ìjọ, lẹ́yìn náà ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí Antioku.
23 And having stayed [there] some time, he went forth, passing in order through the country of Galatia and Phrygia, establishing all the disciples.
Nígbà tí ó sì gbé ọjọ́ díẹ̀ níbẹ̀, ó n lọ, láti káàkiri ni agbègbè Galatia àti Frigia, o ń mu àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn lọ́kàn le.
24 But a certain Jew, Apollos by name, an Alexandrian by race, an eloquent man, who was mighty in the scriptures, arrived at Ephesus.
Júù kan sì wà tí a ń pè ni Apollo, tí a bí ni Alekisandiria, ó wá sí Efesu. Ó ní ẹ̀bùn ọ̀rọ̀ sísọ, ó sì mọ ìwé mímọ́ púpọ̀.
25 He was instructed in the way of the Lord, and being fervent in his spirit, he spoke and taught exactly the things concerning Jesus, knowing only the baptism of John.
Ọkùnrin yìí ni a tí kọ́ ní ọ̀nà tí Olúwa; ó sì ṣe ẹni tí ó ní ìtara tí ẹ̀mí, ó ń sọ̀rọ̀ ó sì ń kọ́ni ní àwọn ohun tí i ṣe ti Jesu dáradára; kìkì bamitiisi tí Johanu ní ó mọ̀.
26 And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue. And Aquila and Priscilla, having heard him, took him to [them] and unfolded to him the way of God more exactly.
Ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí fi ìgboyà sọ̀rọ̀ ni Sinagọgu. Nígbà tí Akuila àti Priskilla gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n mú un sọ́dọ̀, wọ́n sì túbọ̀ sọ ọ̀nà Ọlọ́run fún un dájúdájú.
27 And when he purposed to go into Achaia, the brethren wrote to the disciples engaging them to receive him, who, being come, contributed much to those who believed through grace.
Nígbà tí ó sì ń fẹ́ kọjá lọ sì Akaia, àwọn arákùnrin gbà á ní ìyànjú, wọ́n sì kọ̀wé sí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn kí wọ́n gbà á, nígbà tí ó sì dé, ó ràn àwọn tí ó gbàgbọ́ nípasẹ̀ oore-ọ̀fẹ́ lọ́wọ́ púpọ̀.
28 For he with great force convinced the Jews publicly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.
Nítorí tí o sọ àsọyé fún àwọn Júù ní gbangba, ó ń fi í hàn nínú ìwé mímọ́ pé, Jesu ni Kristi.
