Acts 16
1 Paul went first to Derbe, and then on to Lystra, where he met a believer by the name of Timothy. He was the son of a Jewish Christian mother, and his father was Greek.
Bulus tak bou Darbe kange listira, la nii bwankako kange co ti ki Timoti wiwi, bibwe nawiye Yahuda wo nii bilenke, dila Tee ce Baheline.
2 The brothers at Lystra and Iconium spoke well of him.
Cii tok dikero kenti dorcer nyi nubo wo Listira kange Ikoniya.
3 Paul wanted Timothy to travel with him, so he circumcised him because the Jews in the area all knew that Timothy's father was Greek.
Bulus cui naci ya yam kange co, la cin to cho, cin biye cinen laro ker yahudawa wo fiye tini curo nineu. wori gwamce nyimom ki tece nii heline.
4 As they went through the different towns they gave them the requirements the apostles and elders in Jerusalem had said should be observed.
Kambo ci cukenti mor cinanlore, ciin nerang nyal tinimbo nob tomangebo wo kange. nubo dur tinimbo wo mor Ursalima ciya cike ri, naci bwangten.
5 The churches were strengthened in their trust in the Lord and every day their numbers increased.
La nubo bikur wabereu fiya bikwan neret mor bilenke la ciin kila cii cobten ti diye ki diye.
6 They traveled through the districts of Phrygia and Galatia, since the Holy Spirit prevented them from going to the province of Asia to speak the word.
Bulus kange nubo tikan co tiyeu ya mor cungko Phrygia kange Galatiaya, wori yuwa tangbe kwamako ywanmci tokka ker cero cunga ko Asia.
7 When they arrived at the border of Mysia they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not allow them to enter.
Ki kwama wo cii bow bidom kange Misiyari, cii cuwa na ci do mor Bitiniya, dila yuwa tangbe Yesu ywamci.
8 So they passed by Mysia and went down to Troas.
Kambo ci dou Mysia ri, ciin yirau mor cinanlor Troas.
9 There Paul saw in vision during the night a man from Macedonia standing up, pleading with him, “Please come over to Macedonia and help us!”
Bulus ma dukumbo ki kume; nii Makidoniya tiim wi, kinong coti ki, “Bou fou Makidoniya na mwi tikang nyo”.
10 After Paul saw this vision, we immediately made arrangements to go to Macedonia, since we concluded that God had called us to share the good news with them.
Kambo Bulus to dumeri, dangjang do naci yaken Makidoniya, cin kwabi nercer ki kwama cuo nyo nyi tok ker cero Makidoniya.
11 We set sail from Troas and made straight for Samothrace. The next day we went on to Neapolis,
Kambo ci dob mor Troas ri, nyin yaken ciyer nyin yaken Samothrace, la cel fini ceri nyin bow Neapolis.
12 and from there to Philippi, the most important town in Macedonia, and also a Roman colony. We stayed in this city for several days.
La nyi kwen wiri nyin cuo Philippi, wo co cinan lor Makidoniya, cinan lor la tangnumbo mor biten Roma; La nyin cerum wi cinan lor nen kume ni kila.
13 On the Sabbath day we went out of the town gates down to the riverside where we thought people would come to pray. We sat down and talked with the women that had gathered there.
Ki diye fobka Yahudawa ri nyin cer ken nyilo cinan lor kong chaci ki kwa nere ki nysn fiya fiye kwobka dilo wi. La nyin yiken ri, nyon tok ker. kange natubo wo mwerum wiyeu.
14 One of them was called Lydia, who sold purple cloth from the town of Thyatira. She worshiped God, and she listened to us. The Lord opened her mind to what Paul was saying, and she accepted what he told her.
Nawiye kange dendo ki Lidiya, wo wiye kwilen tiyeu, ci ceru cinan lor Tiyatira, wo wab kwamatiyeu, cuwa tu nuwa nyo. La Teluwe wumom neer cero cin cuwa tu ki dike Bulus tok tiyeu nen.
15 After she and all her household were baptized, she pleaded with us, “If you really think that I'm truly committed to the Lord, then come and stay at my house.” She kept on insisting until we agreed!
Kambo co kange nubo loceri, cin kenyo ciki, no kom ciya komki min yilam ki bilenke kwama nin di kom bou ko cerum lomi. “La cin dok nyo nyin ciya.
16 One day when we were going down to the place of prayer we met a slave girl possessed by an evil spirit. She earned her masters a great deal of money by fortune-telling.
Nyori, ki kwamawo nyin yaken ti fiye kwob ka diloke, bibuya canga kange woki ninga tokake wab kang nyo. Ci bou teluwe ce nen ti ki kyemer ducce ki to kako ci totiyeu.
17 This girl followed Paul and the rest of us around, shouting, “These men are the servants of Almighty God. They are telling you how to be saved!”
La bubiya wo bwnag ten Bulus ti kange nyo la ci kwabang dir, ti ki “Nubo buro cangab kwama dureb. ciki yi kom nure fuloka”.
18 She went on doing this for several days. This bothered Paul so he turned around and told the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to leave her!” The spirit immediately left her.
Ciki mai nyo ki kume tini kila. Dila kambo Bulus kangum neer cero kayam meri, yi kangi la yico “mi nyal nenti ki den Yesu Kiristi, ceru cinen”. La ciin cerum ki kwama co.
19 But when her masters saw they had lost their means of making money, they grabbed hold of Paul and Silas and dragged them before the authorities at the marketplace.
Kambo teb teluweb cebo tori yoka neerek fiya ka mweb kemerceu cuwe ri, ciin tam Bulus kange cila kwob kanci yaken ki cii fiye tubo miyem diker tiye kabum nob bolangeb.
20 They brought them in front of the magistrates, and accused them: “These Jewish men are causing a great disturbance in our town,” they said.
kambo ci bou ki ci ka bum nob bolangebri, cii ki “Nubo buro kum cnag cinan lor beroti. ciin yahudawa.
21 “They're advocating things that are illegal for us as Romans to accept or to practice.”
Cii merang nure ti wo kebo dong-dong kange dike nubo Roma ciye ciya cuko naci bwang tenneu.
22 The crowd joined together in an attack on them. The magistrates tore off Paul and Silas' clothes, and ordered them beaten with rods.
La mwerkan nubo ko gwam kwinang Bulus ce kange Silas, nob bolangebo wob rangum kwilen cero cii nen ri ne nyallo naci makanci ki Belyange kwamangi nyeu.
23 After giving them a severe beating, they threw them into prison, ordering the jailer to keep them locked up.
Kambo malli ciyeri? Ciin dokken cii mor Furcina, ri ciin yi nii to furcina tiyeu na kii ca kum cii yorak.
24 The jailer followed his orders. He threw Paul and Silas into the inner cell and shackled their feet in the stocks.
kambo ci yo nyallo weri, nii to ka Furcinako dokken cii kuwe more ri cin kum na tini ceko.
25 Around midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing praises to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.
Kina ciinkume Bulus kange Silas, kwob dilo rila cii ka nuwe wabka kwama tii la tangnum nubo furcinau cuwa tuu nuwa ciiti.
26 Suddenly a tremendous earthquake shook the foundations of the prison. Immediately all the doors flew open and everyone's chains fell off.
Dang jangri ka mikanka dor bitiner wo dok kwar kur furcinau mikangume la danjang nyilok tininmbo gwam womangum kang nubo bwambwabeu kwiya.
27 The jailer woke up and saw the doors of the prison wide open. He drew his sword and was about to kill himself, thinking that the prisoners had escaped.
Nii to furcinatiyeu yuram dumbo ri, cin to nyiloko wumom, la cin co ku kulen cero ri, cin cui naci twallum dor cero, wori cin kwabi ki nubo furcinau cirangum.
28 But Paul shouted out, “Don't hurt yourself—we're all still here!”
La Bulus kwa cinen dir kibi kwan ki, “Nuware dor mwe ro nen twirak, wori nyin wi fou gwam nye.
29 The jailer asked for lights to be brought and rushed in. Shaking with fear he fell down before Paul and Silas.
Nii to furcina tiyeu me naci bo cinen ki kirak, la cin doken mor wulom mor taiye, ciin cungi kabum Bulus kange Silas.
30 He escorted them out and asked them, “Sirs, what do I have to do so I can be saved?”
La ciin coku ci kaleri, ciki “Nubo dur miik nye ma mati nami fiya fuloka?
31 “Trust in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your whole household,” they replied.
Ciin yico ki “Neken bilenke teluwe Yesu nen, namwi fiya fuloka mo kang nubo lomeu gwam.
32 Then they shared the word of the Lord with him and everyone who lived in his house.
Ciin yico ker Teluwero, kange nubo loceu gwam.
33 Even though it was late at night he bathed their wounds, and he was baptized right away, along with all his family.
La nii yo furcina tiyeu tu ci ki kume cuo, la cin nirom dercero, ri co loce gwam cin yum mwem kwamam bo dang jang.
34 He took them home and had a meal prepared for them. The jailer and his whole family were full of joy because they trusted in God.
la kambo ci bou ti Bulus kange Silas loco ri, ci tik cinen carito kaciye, cin bilangi ducce kange nubo mor luwe ceu, wori cin ne bilenke kwama nen.
35 Early the next day the magistrate sent officials to the jailer, telling him, “Release those men.”
La kambo fini celumeri, nob bolangebo tom nobo to cinanlor tiye nen ker, ciki “Dob nubo co a yaken ti”.
36 The jailer told Paul, “The magistrates have sent word to release you. So you can leave, and go in peace.”
nii to furcinan tiyeu yi Bulus kero couki “Nob bolangebo tunguo tomange minen na dob kom ko yakenti. na weu dila kom ceru ri nako yakenti ki luma.
37 But Paul told them, “They publicly beat us without a trial—and yet we're Roman citizens! Then they threw us in prison. Now they want to quietly let us go? No, they should come themselves and release us!”
Dila Bulus kane silas ciya cinen ki “Cii malli nyo nyanglang bolang mani, ri nyi nubo Roma keneu- la ciin mer ken nyo mor furcina. La ciki cui wona weu naci yoken ki yurangka ka? mani nyo! Ciya bou ki bwici naci cok nyo kale”.
38 The officials went back and reported this to the magistrates. When they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens they were really worried,
La nii to kakkawo ya yi nob bolangebo kereburo. Kambo ci nuwa ki Bulus kange Silas nubo Roam ri cin cuwam tai.
39 and went to apologize to them. They escorted them out and begged them to leave town.
Nob bolangebo bou la ciin ken ci rila cii cokangum kale, la cin yici ki ciya cerum mor cinan loro nen.
40 So Paul and Silas left the prison and went to Lydia's house. There they met with the believers, encouraged them, and then went on their way.
La Bulus kange Silas cerangum furcina ri cin bou to Lidiya. Kambo Bulus kange Silas to nuberi, ciin neci bikwan neret, cin dubom cinan loro.
