< Acts 17 >
1 After Paul and Silas had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia they arrived at Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.
Bolo amola Sailase, da A: mafiboulisi moilai bai bagade amola A: bolounia moilai baligili, Desalouniga moilai bai bagadega doaga: i. Amo moilai ganodini da sinagoge diasu galu.
2 As usual, Paul went into the synagogue and over the course of three Sabbaths he debated with them using the Scriptures.
Ea musa: hamonanu hou defele, Bolo da sinagoge diasuga golili sa: i. Sa: bade eso udianaga, e da dunuma gilisili sia: dasu.
3 He explained what the Scriptures meant, proving that the Messiah had to die and rise from the dead. “This Jesus I'm telling you about—he is the Messiah,” he told them.
E da Gode Sia: Dedei olelei. Musa: dedei da Mesaia (Gode Ea ilegei dunu) da fa: no se nabimu amola bogole, wa: legadomu, e da amo dedei noga: le olelei. Bolo da amane sia: i, “Amo dunu Yesu Gelesu na da dilima olelesa, amo da Mesaia.”
4 Some of them were convinced and joined Paul and Silas, along with many Greek-speaking worshipers and some leading women of the town.
Mogili da dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le, Bolo amola Sailase elama madelagi. Mogili ouligisu dunu ilia uda amola Galigi fi Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu dunu, ilia Bolo amola Sailase elama madelagi.
5 But the Jews became jealous and with some rabble-rousers they gathered from the marketplace they formed a mob. They rioted in the town, and attacked Jason's house. They tried to find Paul and Silas so they could bring them before the people.
Be Yu dunu da mudabeba: le, ilia da wadela: i hamosu udigili esalebe dunu bagohame gilisi. Amo dunu da sia: ga gegebeba: le, dunu huluane Desalouniga moilai ganodini da wili gala: su. Wadela: i hamosu dunu da Bolo amola Sailase ela da Ya: isane ea diasuga esala, amo dawa: i galu. Ilia da ela dunu gilisisu amoga hiouginana masusa: dawa: i. Amaiba: le ilia Ya: isane ea diasuga gegemusa: doaga: la: i.
6 When they couldn't find them they dragged Jason and some of the other believers before the town leaders, shouting, “These people are famous for causing trouble, turning the world upside down. Now they've come here,
Be Bolo amola Sailase hame ba: beba: le, ilia da Ya: isane amola eno Yesu Ea hou lalegagui dunu, hiougili, moilai fofada: su dunuma doaga: le, ilima amane halasu, “Amo dunu da soge huluane ganodini wili gala: su. Wali ilia da ninia moilaiga doaga: i dagoi.
7 and Jason has made them welcome in his house. They all defy Caesar's decrees, committing treason by saying there is another king called Jesus.”
Ya: isane da amo dunu ea diasu ganodini aowasu. Ilia huluane da ninia Louma Hina ea sema wadela: sa. Hina bagade eno Ea dio amo Yesu da esalebe, ilia da ogogole sia: daha!”
8 The people and the leaders of the town were very disturbed when they heard this.
Amo sia: beba: le, dunu huluane gilisi amola moilai fofada: su dunu, da gilisili ougili sia: ga gegenana halasu.
9 So they made Jason and the others post bail before they let them go.
Amalalu, fofada: su dunu da Ya: isane amola eno fa: no bobogesu dunu ilima ilia se dabe iasu diasu logo doasima: ne dabe lai dagole, ilima fisili masa: ne sia: i.
10 The believers had Paul and Silas leave for Berea that very night. When they arrived in Berea they went to the Jewish synagogue.
Gasi doaga: beba: le, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu da Bolo amola Sailase amo Belia moilaiga asunasi. Amoga doaga: loba, ela da sinagoge diasu ganodini golili sa: i.
11 The people there had a better attitude than those in Thessalonica in that they were very quick to accept the word, and every day they examined the Scriptures to make sure what they were told was right.
Amo moilai dunu ilia nabasu hou da Desalouniga dunu ilia hou baligi dagoi. Ilia hanaiwane Yesu Ea sia: nabasu. Eso huluane, Bolo ea sia: i liligi ado ba: ma: ne, ilia Gode Sia: Dedei Buga idili, bai hogolalu.
12 As a result many of them became believers, along with some highly-placed Greek women and men.
Bagohame da lalegagui dagoi. Bagade gagui Galigi uda bagohame amola Galigi dunu bagohameda lalegagui dagoi.
13 But when the Jews in Thessalonica heard that Paul was also spreading the word of God in Berea, they went there and caused the same kind of trouble, stirring up the crowds.
Be Yu dunu Desalouniga moilaiga esalu, amo da Bolo da Belia moilai bai bagadega esalebe amola Gode Ea sia: olelei dagoi, amo nabi. Ilia da misini, Belia dunu Boloma ougima: ne wili gala: su.
14 Immediately the believers sent Paul to the coast, while Silas and Timothy remained behind.
Amaiba: le, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu da Bolo hano wayabo bagade bega: doaga: ma: ne asunasi. Be Sailase amola Dimodi da Belia moilaiga esalu.
15 Those escorting Paul took him as far as Athens, and then returned with instructions from Paul to Silas and Timothy that they should join him there as soon as possible.
Be Bolo ea ouligisu dunu da Bolo oule asili, A:denese moilai bai bagadega doaga: le, Belia moilai bai bagadega buhagi. Bu doaga: le, ilia Sailase amola Dimodi, elama Bolo ea olelei sia: i amo, Boloma hedolowane bu gilisima: ne sia: i.
16 While Paul was waiting for them in Athens he was very troubled to see all the idolatry in the city.
Bolo da A: denese moilai bai bagadega Sailase amola Dimodi, ema bu gilisimusa: ouesalea, e da amo moilai ganodini ogogosu ‘gode’ loboga hamoi liligi bagohame ba: beba: le, se bagade nabi.
17 He debated in the synagogue with the Jews and those who worshiped God, as well as in the marketplace with those he happened to meet from day to day.
Amaiba: le, e da sinagoge diasu ganodini, Yu dunu amola Dienadaile Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu dunu, ilima bagade sia: dasu. Amola e da dunu bidi lama: ne diasu sogebi amo ganodini amola dunu amo da udigili manebeba: le, ilima sia: olelei.
18 Some Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also argued with him. “What is he going on about?” they wondered. Others concluded, “He seems to be teaching about some foreign gods,” because he was speaking about Jesus and the resurrection.
Eno olelesu dunu fi ilia dio amo Ebigiulia: ne amola Sidouigi, ili amola Bolo, da gilisili fofada: su. Mogili ilia amane sia: i, “Amo gasa fi dadousa dunu da adi sia: dasula: ?” Be eno dunu da bu adole i, “Amabela: ? E da ‘gode’ liligi hisu amo ilia hou olelesala: ?” Bolo da Yesu Gelesu Ea hou amola Ea wa: legadosu hou, amo olelebeba: le, ilia agoane sia: dasu.
19 So they took him to the Areopagus, and asked him, “Please tell us about this new teaching that you're promoting.
Amaiba: le, ilia da Bolo Gasolo dunu gilisisu ilima oule asi. Gasolo gilisisu ea dio amo Eliobagase. Ilia ema amane adole ba: i, “Ninia da dia gaheabolo olelesu liligi amo bai nabimu hanai gala.
20 We're hearing from you things that sound odd to us, so we'd like to know what they mean.”
Dia olelesu liligi mogili ninia fofogadigili naba. Ninia da amo bai dawa: mu hanai gala!”
21 (All the Athenians, including foreigners who lived there, spent their whole time doing nothing except explaining or listening to something new.)
(A: denese fi dunu amola ga misi dunu amo moilai ganodini esalu, da eso huluane gaheabolo hou sia: sa: imusa: dawa: lalu. Hou eno hame hamosu - amo fawane.)
22 Paul stood up right in the middle of the Areopagus and said, “People of Athens, I notice you are very religious about everything.
Bolo da wa: legadole, Gasolo dunu huluane nabima: ne amane sia: i, “Dilia A: denese dunu huluane da a: silibu liligi ilima bagadewane dawa: lala, amo na da ba: sa.
23 As I was walking along, looking at your shrines, I found an altar that had the inscription, ‘To an Unknown God.’ This unknown God whom you worship is the one I'm describing to you.
Na da dilia moilai ganodini dilia sia: ne gadosu sogebi ba: musa: ahoabeba: le, na da oloda ba: i. Amo da: iya dedei diala amane, “‘gode’ amo ninia hame dawa:” amo na ba: beba: le, dili da a: silibu liligi ilima bagadewane dawa: lala, na dawa: i. Amaiba: le, dilia hame dawa: su liligi, dilia ilima udigili sia: ne gadosu liligi, amo na da dilima olelemu.
24 The God who created the world and everything in it, the Lord of heaven and earth, doesn't live in temples we make.
Godedafa, E da osobo bagade amola amo ganodini liligi huluane, hahamoi dagoi. E da mu amola osobo bagade, amoma Hina Gode esala. E da dunu ili loboga gagui debolo diasu amo ganodini hame esala.
25 He doesn't need to be served by us as if he needed anything, since he is the source of all life for every living being.
Hisu da defele esala. Ninia da hawa: hamobeba: le, Ea hou fidimu da hamedei. Hisu da esalusu, mifo, liligi huluanedafa amola dunu huluanedafa ilima iahabeba: le, ninia da Ea hou afadenemusa: hame dawa:
26 From one man he made all the peoples who live on the earth, and decided beforehand when and where they should live.
Gode da dunu afadafa hamoi galu. Amo ea mano da osobo bagade fifi asi gala wali osobo bagade ganodini esala. Gode Hisu da ilia soge ilegei alalo amola ilia esalusu ode, amo ilegei dagoi.
27 God's purpose was that they should seek him, hoping they would reach out for him and find him—though he isn't far from any one of us.
Bai E da osobo bagade dunu Gode hogoi helele ba: musa: , amo hanai galu. Be Gode da sogebi sedaga amo ganodini hame esala. E da nini huluanema gadenenewane esala.
28 In him we live, move, and exist. Just as one of your own poets wrote, ‘We are his family.’
Musa: dunu da amane sia: i, ‘Ninia da Godema madelagiba: le, esalebe amola lalebe, hou hamosu dawa:’ Dilia gesami hea: su dedesu dunu enoda amane dedei, ‘Ninia amola da Ea mano esala.’
29 Since we are his family we shouldn't think that God is like gold, or silver, or stone, shaped by human artistry and thinking.
Ninia da Gode Ea mano esalebeba: le, ninia da E da hame esala ogogosu ‘gode’ gouliga ma silifaga ma igiga amo osobo bagade dunu ea gasaga hamoi, E da amo liligi defele ninia dawa: mu da defea hame galebe.
30 God disregarded people's ignorance in the past, but now he commands everyone everywhere to repent.
Musa: , dunu da Gode Ea hou hame dawa: beba: le, amo liligi ilia loboga hamonoba, amo hou Gode da gogolema: ne olofoi dagoi. Be wali, E da gasa bagadewane, dunu da ilia wadela: i hou yolesili, Ema sinidigima: ne sia: sa.
31 For he has set a time when he will rightly judge the world by the man he has appointed, and he proved to everyone that he is the one by raising him from the dead.”
Bai E da fofada: su eso ilegei dagoi. Amo ganodini E da moloiwane osobo bagade dunu huluanema fofada: mu. Amola E da Fofada: su Dunu ilegei dagoi. E da dunu huluane amo hou noga: le dawa: ma: ne, amo Fofada: su Dunu Ea bogoi wa: lesi dagoi!”
32 Some of them laughed when they heard about the resurrection of the dead, while others said, “Please come back so we can hear more about this later.”
Ilia da Bolo ea sia: amo da bogoi dunu Godema wa: lesi amo sia: nababeba: le, mogili da Boloma oufesega: su. Be mogili amane sia: i, “Amo sia: ea bai ninia hobea bu nabimu hanai gala!”
Amalalu, Bolo da amo gilisisu yolesili, asi.
34 A few men joined him and trusted in God, including Dionysius, a member of the Areopagus, as well as a woman called Damaris, and some others.
Dunu mogili ilia Boloma madelagili, Yesu Ea hou lalegagui dagoi. Afae da Gasolo dunu ea dio amo Daionisiase. Eno da uda ea dio amo Da: malisi. Eno dunu amolawane da lalegagui.
