Acts 21
1 And when, having got away from them, we at last sailed away, we came by a direct course to Cos, and on the morrow to Rhodes, and thence to Patara.
Ngonu bunua alvbv doolakukv vpi kula vngyu toku. Ho koching bv sidakala bv durapla, Kos lo ngonu raplwk toku; logo nvnga ngonu Rodes lo vngchi toku, okv hokv ngv ngonu vngdavngrala Patara bv vngtoku.
2 And having found a ship passing over into Phoenicia, we went on board and sailed;
Ngonu hoka svpw go Poenesia bv vngjinvgo paatoku, vkvlvgabv ngonu hoka aalwk la vngdavngra toku.
3 and having sighted Cyprus, and left it on the left hand, we sailed to Syria, and made the land at Tyre, for there the ship was to discharge her cargo.
Ngonu Saipras bokpin am kaapa dukubv aato, okv vbvrikunamv yorko kiambv dulu la Sairia lo aatoku. Ngonu Taire gv svgambv vngto ogulvgavbolo svpwlo gvvnama hoka gvvpv dokubv.
4 And having found out the disciples, we remained there seven days; who said to Paul by the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.
Ngonu hoka mvngjwngnv nyi meego kaapa minsu la okv bunua lvkobv alu kanwgo doobamto. Bunu Darwknv Dow gv jwkrw lokv Paulnyi Jerusalem bv vngma bvkv vla minto.
5 But when we had completed the days, we set out and took our journey, all of them accompanying us, with wives and children, till [we were] out of the city. And kneeling down upon the shore we prayed.
Vbvritola bunua lvkobv ngonugv doobam namgv dwv vngnya kunamv, ngonu vngyu tokula okv atugv lamtv bv vngtoku. Bunu mvnwng gv, nywng kuu mvnwng ngv lvkin gobv, ngonua lvkobv pamtv agum bv vnglintoku, hoka ngonu mvnwng ngv isi agum lo lvbwng kumpv tokula kumbam toku.
6 And having embraced one another, we went on board ship, and they returned home.
Vbvrikunamv ngonu asakv alv bvkv vmi sopi kula, okv ngonu svpwlo aatoku okv bunu naam bv vngkur nyatoku.
7 And we, having completed the voyage, arrived from Tyre at Ptolemais, and having saluted the brethren, we remained one day with them.
Ngonu atugv svpwlo vngdungla, Taire lokv Ptolimais lo dulin toku, hokaku ngonu mvngjwngnv vdwa alvbv raami solaku okv bunua lvkobv alu logo bv dooming gvvto.
8 And leaving on the morrow, we came to Caesarea; and entering into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was of the seven, we abode with him.
Alu gonv nga ngonu vnglaku okv Kaisaria lo vngchi kunam. Hoka ngonu ebenjelist Pilips gv naam lo dooto, hv Jerusalem lo nyi kanwgo riduryanv gubv darlin kunam lokv akonv.
9 Now this man had four virgin daughters who prophesied.
Ninyi gvlo nyibu vngmadvnv Pwknvyarnv gv doina japgo yanv umvnyijar api go dooto.
10 And as we stayed there many days, a certain man, by name Agabus, a prophet, came down from Judaea,
Ngonu hoka alu mvngchikgo dookunamv Agabas vnam nyijwk go Judia lokv aalwk toku.
11 and coming to us and taking the girdle of Paul, and having bound his own hands and feet, said, Thus saith the Holy Spirit, The man whose this girdle is shall the Jews thus bind in Jerusalem, and deliver him up into the hands of [the] Gentiles.
Hv ngonu dookulo aato, Paul gv hok am naala, hv atugv lvpa laak lo um leelwk sutola okv minto, “So svbv Darwknv Dowv mindo: Soogv hok atua Jerusalem lo Jius nyi vdwv vbv leeri, okv bunu ninyia Jentail nyi vdwgv laak lo laklwk riku.”
12 And when we heard these things, both we and those of the place besought [him] not to go up to Jerusalem.
Vdwlo ngonu sum tvvpanamgola, hoka ngonu la kvvbi vdwv Paulnyi Jerusalem bv vngma bvkv vla kumla minto.
13 But Paul answered, What do ye, weeping and breaking my heart? for I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
Vbvritola hv mirwksito, “Nonu ogubv svbv kapnyarinya la ngoogv haapok ka mvngdwk modunv? Ngo Jerusalem mvngchik lo leemwng koodubv mvngma vbvritola hoka ngo Ahtu Jisu gv lvgabv sidubv mvngta dunv.”
14 And when he would not be persuaded, we were silent, saying, The will of the Lord be done.
Ngonu ninyia mintap nyumato, vkvlvgabv ngonu topu tokula, “Ahtu gv mvngnam bv rila kuka.”
15 And after these days, having got our effects ready, we went up to Jerusalem.
Kochingso hoka meego ripikula, ngonu atugv yikungyira nga mvgemvrap tokula okv Jerusalem bv vngtoku.
16 And [some] of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, bringing [with them] a certain Mnason, a Cyprian, an old disciple, with whom we were to lodge.
Kaisaria lokv lvbwlaksu meego ngonua vngming gvvto okv ngonugv lvkobv naam doojiku ninyigv naam bv ngonua vnggv toku—Mnason, Saipras lokv, hv kvvlogv lokv mvngjwng nvgobv rinv.
17 And when we arrived at Jerusalem the brethren gladly received us.
Vdwlo ngonu Jerusalem lo vngchi tokudw, mvngjwngnv nyi vdwv mvngpu nyala ngonua alvbv aamuto.
18 And on the morrow Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders came there.
Logo nvnga Paul Jemsnyi kaabv ngonua lvkobv vngming gvvtoku; okv gvrja nyi nyigagatv vdwv mvnwng ngv lvkobv rinya kunam.
19 And having saluted them, he related one by one the things which God had wrought among the nations by his ministry.
Paul bunu mvnwng nga alvbv kaarwk sito okv ninyigv lokv Pwknvyarnv oguaingbv Jentail vdwgv pingkolo ripvkudw um mvnwng nga bunua mimpa jitoku.
20 And they having heard [it] glorified God, and said to him, Thou seest, brother, how many myriads there are of the Jews who have believed, and all are zealous of the law.
Hvkv gvlo tvvronam kochingso, bunu mvnwng ngv Pwknvyarnvnyi hartv nyatoku. Vbvrikunamv bunu minto, “Achiboru Paul, no kaakw tvka vdwnvgo hejarhejar Jius nyi vdwv mvngjwng nvbv rinya dukunv, okv bunu mvnwng ngv achialv bv Pvbv ngaka mvnggap nyadunv.
21 And they have been informed concerning thee, that thou teachest all the Jews among the nations apostasy from Moses, saying that they should not circumcise their children, nor walk in the customs.
Bunu vbv chimpa duku no Jius nyi mvnwng nga Jentail vdwgv mooku lo rinv doonv vdwa Moses gv Pvbv nga topu dukubv tamsar duku, bunua umvuu vdwa ayakmvu kuma dvbv okv Jius vdwgv krimklu gv ridungdodung nga riming gvvku madubv minduku vla tvvpa nyapvku.
22 What is it then? a multitude must necessarily come together, for they will hear that thou art come.
Bunu noogv so aalwk nama tvvpa rungriku. Vbvrikunamv ngonu ogugo risv ngvkudw? Vbvritola, ogugo rinam ngaka?
23 This do therefore that we say to thee: We have four men who have a vow on them;
Ngonu nam svbv risv go vla mvngdunv. So sika nyi api go milvminsu tvla dopvnv.
24 take these and be purified with them, and pay their expenses, that they may have their heads shaved; and all will know that [of those things] of which they have been informed about thee nothing is [true]; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, keeping the law.
Bunua lvkobv vngnyika okv mvdurridur kolo aapwng minggv laka okv bunugv rijo minjo nga joji tvka; vbvrikubolo bunu bunugv dwmw am mwkga sito. Vbvrila mvnwng ngv chinriku bunugv nam minam lo ogu jvjv go dokumanyi vla, vbvritola bunu nonua Moses gv Pvbv lo doobwng dvnvnyi vla chiya rikunv.
25 But concerning [those of] the nations who have believed, we have written, deciding that they should [observe no such thing, only to] keep themselves both from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication.
Vbvritola Jentail mvngjwngnv vdwa yugwngmvrwng lo lwknam dvnamtvngnam okv oyi ngaka okv oksarnam svnwngsvmin ngaka dvku madubv, okv bunua yoomur minsu madubv ngonu mimpv kunv vla bunua siti lo lvkla pau pvkunv.”
26 Then Paul, taking the men, on the next day, having been purified, entered with them into the temple, signifying the time the days of the purification would be fulfilled, until the offering was offered for every one of them.
Vkvlvgabv Paul logo nvnga nyi vdwa vnggv laku, bunua mvdurridur kolo lvkobv rimutoku. Vbvrikunamv hv Pwknvyarnvnaam lo vngtoku okv bunu mvnwng gv lvgabv mvdurridur kunama vdw lonyi bunu akinakinv risvmvsv ngvdw um minggo jito.
27 And when the seven days were nearly completed, the Jews from Asia, having seen him in the temple, set all the crowd in a tumult, and laid hands upon him,
Vbvritola vdwlo alu lokkanwv vngnya tvku namv, Asia mooku lokv Jius nyi meego Paulnyi Pwknvyarnvnaam lo kaapa toku. Bunu nyitwng nga nvngyak nvngpak la okv Paulnyi naatung toku.
28 crying, Israelites, help! this is the man who teaches all everywhere against the people, and the law, and this place, and has brought Greeks too into the temple, and profaned this holy place.
Bunu goknyato, “Israel gv nyi vdwa!” “Ridurto! So nyi angv si mooku lo vngkarla nyi mvnwng lo Israel nyi vdwa okv Moses gv Pvbv aka okv so Pwknvyarnvnaam am miyakaya la tamsar sargonv. Okv vjak hv Jentail meegoka Pwknvyarnvnaam so aagvla darwknv naam am darwk madubv mvdu!”
29 For they had before seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.
(Bunu svbv minam si ogulvgavbolo bunu Epesus lokv Tropimusnyi Paul gv lvkobv pamtv lo ridubv kaato, okv bunu mvngtoku Paulnyi Pwknvyarnvnaam lo aagv pvnv vla.)
30 And the whole city was moved, and there was a concourse of the people; and having laid hold on Paul they drew him out of the temple, and immediately the doors were shut.
Tvvbwktvlo kumanam lokv pamtv mvnwng lo dupwng toku, okv nyi vdwv lvkin gobv jokbam nyala, Paulnyi naatungto, okv ninyia Pwknvyarnvnaam agum bv tunglin nyato. Okv Pwknvyarnvnaam gv agi vdwa vjakpigobv koktum nyatoku.
31 And as they were seeking to kill him, a representation came to the chiliarch of the band that the whole of Jerusalem was in a tumult;
Nyitwng ngv Paulnyi mvki dubv gwngto, vbvrikunamv Roman sipai kamandar lo yunying ngv aatoku Jerusalem mvnwng lo yalungyachung bv ridu vla.
32 who, taking with him immediately soldiers and centurions, ran down upon them. But they, seeing the chiliarch and the soldiers, ceased beating Paul.
Vjakpigobv kamandar angv nyigam meego okv sipai twnggo naalaila nyitwng apam lo juklu toku. Vdwlo nyitwng ngv ninyia sipai atwng am kaapa tokudw, bunu Paulnyi jvngkumato.
33 Then the chiliarch came up and laid hold upon him, and commanded [him] to be bound with two chains, and inquired who he might be, and what he had done.
Kamandar angv Paul dokubv aato, okv ninyia naatung toku, okv ninyia jaako sonyi go leedu kubv milin toku. Vbvrikunamv hv tvvkato, “So nyi si yvvla, okv ninyi ogugo ripvla?”
34 And different persons cried some different thing in the crowd. But he, not being able to know the certainty on account of the uproar, commanded him to be brought into the fortress.
Nyitwng apam lokv meegonv ogugo goknyato, kvvbi vdwv aku subv goknyato. Hoka ho vkvnv abwkalo kuma bv rikunamv Kamandar angv kaabwk nyumato ogugo ripvnvdw, vkvlvgabv hv ninyigv nyi vdwa Paulnyi sipai naam lo vnggv dukubv minto.
35 But when he got upon the stairs it was so that he was borne by the soldiers on account of the violence of the crowd.
Bunu ninyia baatunglo vngchi minggv toku, okv vbvrikunamv sipai vdwv ninyia jootoku vkvlvgavbolo nyitwng ngv iki svrv bv rinyato.
36 For the multitude of the people followed, crying, Away with him.
Bunu mvnwng ngv ninyigv kochingbv aaming gvvtola, “Ninyia mvkito!” vla goknyato.
37 But as he was about to be led into the fortress, Paul says to the chiliarch, Is it allowed me to say something to thee? And he said, Dost thou know Greek?
Sipai vdwv Paulnyi sipai naam arwngbv aagv tvvrilo, hv kamandar anga minto: “Ngo nam gaam lo gamgo minla ridw?” “No Grik gaambv minto, no minyure?” Vla kamandar angv tvvkato.
38 Thou art not then that Egyptian who before these days raised a sedition and led out into the wilderness the four thousand men of the assassins?
“Vbvrikunamv no kvvlo kvcho gv Ijipt nyi ako yalungyachung dula hejar api alvmanv nyi go rigvla chukrimooku lo riram la ramgvnv angv mai?”
39 But Paul said, I am a Jew of Tarsus, citizen of no insignificant city of Cilicia, and I beseech of thee, allow me to speak to the people.
Paul mirwksito, “Ngo Jius nyi ngv, Silisia gv Tarsus lo bvngnamv, Pamtv kai nvlo doonv ngv. Ayala nga nyi vdwa gaam japmu labv.”
40 And when he had allowed him, Paul, standing on the stairs, beckoned with his hand to the people; and a great silence having been made, he addressed them in the Hebrew tongue, saying,
Kamandar angv ninyia japdubv jitoku, vkvlvgabv Paul baatung lo dakpv tvla ninyigv laakv nyi vdwa choi bvkv vla minto. Vdwlo bunu choi bv dooto kudw, Paul bunua Hebru gaambv japtoku:
