Acts 19
1 NOW it came to pass that during the time Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, after passing through the upper provinces, came to Ephesus; and finding certain disciples,
Ri Apolos kꞌo pa ri tinimit Corinto, are kꞌu ri Pablo xikꞌow pa taq tinimit ri naqaj e kꞌo wi, kꞌa te riꞌ xopan pa ri tinimit Éfeso, chilaꞌ xuꞌriq wi e kꞌi kojonelabꞌ.
2 said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not even heard if the Holy Ghost is given.
Xuta chike: ¿La xikꞌamawaꞌj ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel are xixkojonik? Man xqakꞌamawaꞌj taj, xechaꞌ. Man e qetaꞌm taj we kꞌo Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel.
3 And he asked them, Into what then were ye baptised? And they replied, Into John’s baptism.
¿Jachin chike qasanaꞌ xikꞌamawaꞌj ix? Are ri qasanaꞌ rech ri Juan, xecha che.
4 Then said Paul, John indeed baptised with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people, That they should believe on him who was coming after him, that is, in Christ Jesus.
Ri Pablo xubꞌij chike: Ri qasanaꞌ ri xubꞌan ri Juan, xubꞌano rech kakikꞌex kikꞌuꞌx ri winaq che kimak xubꞌij kꞌu chike ri winaq chi rajawaxik kekojon che ri kape na, ri Jesús.
5 Now when they heard it, they were baptised into the name of the Lord Jesus.
Are xetoꞌtaj chutatabꞌexik ri xbꞌix chike, xbꞌan kiqasanaꞌ pa ri ubꞌiꞌ ri Ajawxel Jesús.
6 And Paul laying on them his hands, the Holy Ghost came upon them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
Are xuya ri uqꞌabꞌ ri Pablo pa kiwiꞌ, xqaj ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel pa kiwiꞌ, xechꞌaw pa juleꞌ taq chꞌabꞌal chik, xuqujeꞌ xkiqꞌalajisaj ri utzij ri Dios.
7 And the men were in all about twelve.
E kabꞌlajuj achyabꞌ chkonojel.
8 And entering into the synagogue, he spake boldly during three months, reasoning and persuading the things that concern the kingdom of God.
Ri Pablo oxibꞌ ikꞌ xtzijonik xuqujeꞌ xmenkꞌetinik chirij ri ajawarem rech ri Dios pa ri Sinagoga.
9 And when some were hardened, and infidel, speaking evil of the way before the people, he withdrew from them, and separated the disciples, discoursing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
E kꞌo jujun man xkaj taj xekojon che ri utzij ri Jesús, xkichapleꞌj ubꞌixik itzel taq jastaq chike ri kojonelabꞌ chikiwach konojel ri winaq. Rumal riꞌ, ri Pablo xel bꞌik pa ri Sinagoga, xuꞌkꞌam bꞌik ri kojonelabꞌ, amaqꞌel, xtzijon kukꞌ pa ri ja tijobꞌal re ri achi ubꞌiꞌnam Tirano. Xuchoqꞌ uwach ri xbꞌix che.
10 And this he did for two years; so that all who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
Kebꞌ junabꞌ jewaꞌ xkꞌulmatajik xaq jeriꞌ ri winaq aꞌj Israel xuqujeꞌ ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj ri e kꞌo pa taq ri tinimit rech Asia, xkitatabꞌej ri utzij ri Ajawxel.
11 And God wrought by the hands of Paul extraordinary miracles;
Ri Dios kꞌut xuya kwinem che ri Pablo kubꞌan nimaq taq kꞌutbꞌal xuqujeꞌ kunanik.
12 so that even from his skin there were brought handkerchiefs and aprons unto the diseased, and their disorders were chased from them, and the evil spirits came out of them.
Ri yawabꞌibꞌ kekunatajik are kaya ri kisuꞌt xuqujeꞌ chꞌuqbꞌal taq kichꞌek chirij ri Pablo xuqujeꞌ ri itzel taq uxlabꞌal keꞌl bꞌik chike.
13 Then certain of the Jews, who went about as exorcists, attempted to make mention of the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.
Kꞌo kꞌu jun wok winaq aꞌj Israel ri kewaꞌkat pa taq kiꞌ tinimit, keꞌkesaj itzel taq uxlabꞌal, kakikoj ri ubꞌiꞌ ri Ajawxel Jesús, kakibꞌij: Pa ri ubꞌiꞌ ri Jesús ri kutzijoj ri Pablo, katqesaj bꞌik itzel uxlabꞌal.
14 And they were seven sons of Sceva a Jew, a chief priest, who did this.
Ri kebꞌanow we riꞌ are ri e wuqubꞌ ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Esceva, jun pare kꞌamal bꞌe.
15 Then the evil spirit replied, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
Junmul kꞌut are xkaj jewaꞌ xkibꞌano, ri itzel uxlabꞌal xubꞌij chike: Wetaꞌm uwach ri Jesús, xuqujeꞌ wetaꞌm jachin riꞌ ri Pablo, ¿ix jachin kꞌu ri ix?
16 And the man sprang upon them, in whom was the evil spirit, and getting the mastery over them, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
Ri achi kꞌut ri kꞌo itzel uxlabꞌal che, xukꞌyaq ribꞌ chikij rukꞌ chꞌuꞌjilal, xkixiꞌxitej kꞌu kibꞌ, xkiriq kꞌax xuqujeꞌ kechꞌanchꞌatik xebꞌe cho kachoch.
17 And this was known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who dwelt at Ephesus: and fear fell on them all, and they magnified the name of the Lord.
We kꞌulmatajik riꞌ xetaꞌmataj kumal konojel ri winaq ri e kꞌo pa ri tinimit Éfeso, winaq aꞌj Israel, xuqujeꞌ winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj, konojel xkixiꞌj kibꞌ, rumal riꞌ xkinimarisaj uqꞌij ri Ajawxel Jesús.
18 And many of those who believed came, confessing and declaring their practices.
E kꞌi chike ri winaq ri xekojonik, xkitzujuj kibꞌ che ri man utz taj ri kibꞌanom kan nabꞌe.
19 And many of those who practised magical arts brought the books, and burned them before all men; and they calculated the prices of them, and found them worth fifty thousand pieces of silver.
E kꞌi xuqujeꞌ chike ri kakibꞌan kan itzinik nabꞌe xkikꞌam loq ri kiwuj ri rech itzibꞌal, xkiporoj chkiwach konojel ri winaq. Ri rajil ri wuj ri xkiporoj, are kawinaq lajuj mil qꞌana pwaq.
20 So mightily did the word of God increase and prevail.
E kꞌi winaq xekojonik rumal ronojel ri xkꞌulmatajik.
21 Now when these things were accomplished, Paul purposed by the Spirit, passing through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, That after I have been there, I must see Rome also.
Ri Pablo xuchomaj kisolixik ri tinimit rech Macedonia, rech Acaya, are majaꞌ keꞌ pa ri tinimit Jerusalén. Xuchomaj chi we xtoꞌtaj pa Jerusalén, rajawaxik keꞌ pa ri tinimit Roma.
22 Then he dispatched into Macedonia two of those who attended upon him, Timothy and Erastus; while he himself continued a while longer in Asia.
Xuꞌtaq kꞌu bꞌik ri Timoteo rachiꞌl ri Erasto, kebꞌ chike ri ketobꞌan rukꞌ, xebꞌe pa Macedonia. Are kꞌu ri areꞌ xkanaj kan jun janipa qꞌij pa Asia.
23 And there happened at that time no small disturbance about this way.
Pa taq ri qꞌij riꞌ xchapleꞌtaj jun chꞌoꞌj chkixoꞌl ri winaq pa ri tinimit Éfeso rumal ri utz laj tzij rech ri kꞌakꞌ taq tzij.
24 For a person named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made little temples in silver to represent that of Diana, brought to the artificers no small gain;
Kꞌo kꞌu jun achi ubꞌiꞌ Demetrio. Jun chꞌayal chꞌichꞌ ri kubꞌan alaj taq ja che saq pwaq karesaj uwach ri rachoch ri Diana ri kidios ri winaq aꞌj Éfeso, nima pwaq kakichꞌek ri achyabꞌ ri kechakun rukꞌ.
25 whom collecting together, with the workmen also of such trinkets, he said, Sirs, ye know that by this employment we make our advantageous livelihood:
Ri Demetrio xuꞌmulij ajchakibꞌ, xuqujeꞌ nikꞌaj achyabꞌ ri junam kichak rukꞌ, xubꞌij chike: Iwetaꞌm chi nim tajin kiqachꞌek chrij we chak riꞌ.
26 and ye see and hear how not only at Ephesus, but almost through all Asia, this fellow Paul, by his persuasions, hath perverted a vast multitude, affirming that they are not gods which are made with hands:
Kiwil bꞌa ri achi Pablo, kubꞌij chi we tzꞌaq riꞌ e winaq e bꞌanowinaq man e dios taj. Man xwi ta kꞌu ukojom kikꞌuꞌx ri winaq pa Éfeso, xane ukojom kikꞌuꞌx konojel ri winaq ri e kꞌo pa ri tinimit Asia.
27 so that not only is this our trade in danger of falling into contempt, but also that this temple of the great goddess Diana should be counted as nothing, and that henceforth also her magnificence should be utterly destroyed, whom all Asia and the whole world worshippeth.
We man nim chik kilik ri templo rech ri Diana, kasach uwach waꞌ we qakꞌay, sibꞌalaj kꞌax riꞌ. Man kaya ta chi kꞌu uqꞌij we nimalaj dios ri kaqꞌijilax kumal konojel ri winaq aꞌj Asia, xuqujeꞌ kumal konojel ri winaq ri e kꞌo cho ri uwachulew.
28 On hearing this then, and being filled with rage, they cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
Ri winaq are xkita ri xbꞌix chike, sibꞌalaj xpe koyawal, xkiraq kichiꞌ, xkibꞌij: ¡Nim uqꞌij ri Diana ri kidios ri aꞌj Éfeso!
29 And the whole city was filled with confusion; and they rushed unanimously into the theatre, dragging with them Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, Paul’s travelling companions.
Konojel ri winaq ri e kꞌo pa ri tinimit xkikꞌyaq kibꞌ chikij ri Gayo, xuqujeꞌ ri Aristarco are waꞌ ri achyabꞌ aꞌj Macedonia e rachiꞌl ri Pablo. Ri winaq xeꞌkicharchatej bꞌik xeꞌkikꞌam bꞌik pa ri kꞌolibꞌal ri kakimulij wi kibꞌ ri winaq.
30 But though Paul wished to go in to the people, the disciples would not permit him.
Ri Pablo are xraj xok bꞌik chikixoꞌl ri winaq, ri kojonelabꞌ man xkiya ta bꞌe che.
31 And some of the Asiarchs also, who were his friends, sent unto him, admonishing him not to venture himself into the theatre.
E kꞌo xuqujeꞌ jujun qꞌatal tzij rech ri tinimit Asia, kech chꞌabꞌeꞌn ri Pablo, xkitaq ubꞌixik che chi man kok ta chkixoꞌl ri winaq.
32 So they were crying out some one thing and some another: for the assembly was a scene of confusion, and the greater part knew not on what account they were collected together.
Ri winaq ri kimulim kibꞌ xkiraq kichiꞌ, xkibꞌij jaljoj taq jastaq. E kꞌi chike man ketaꞌm taj jas che kimulim kibꞌ.
33 Then out of the crowd they brought forward Alexander, the Jews pushing him on: and Alexander, waving his hand, would fain have addressed his apology to the people.
Kꞌo kꞌu jun achi aj Israel chilaꞌ ubꞌiꞌ Alejandro, xkichꞌikmayij bꞌik rech kubꞌij jas tajin kakꞌulmatajik. Ri Alejandro xuyak ri uqꞌabꞌ rech man kechꞌaw ta na ri winaq.
34 But when they knew he was a Jew, one shout burst from all, crying for about the space of two hours, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
Ri winaq are xkichꞌobꞌo chi ri Alejandro aj Israel, konojel xkiraq kichiꞌ, xkibꞌij: ¡Nim uqꞌij ri Diana, ri kidios ri aꞌj Éfeso!
35 Then the recorder having quieted the multitude, said, Men of Ephesus, who indeed is the man that doth not know that the city of the Ephesians is wholly devoted to the great goddess Diana, and to the image which fell down from Jupiter?
Xpe kꞌu jun qꞌatal tzij rech ri tinimit xkwinik xuꞌtanabꞌa ri winaq, xubꞌij chike: Achyabꞌ aꞌj Éfeso, konojel ri winaq ketaꞌm chi we tinimit Éfeso are e chajil re ri utemplo ri qadios Diana, ri utzꞌaqil xa xqaj loq chikaj.
36 These things being then incontrovertible, it becomes you to be quiet, and to do nothing with precipitation.
Qetaꞌm kꞌut chi man kꞌo ta jun ri mat retaꞌm. Xaq jeriꞌ makiyak ta chꞌoꞌj, qas chichomaj na ri kibꞌano.
37 For ye have brought hither these men, neither robbers of the temple, nor blasphemers of your goddess.
We achyabꞌ we iꞌkꞌamom loq man kꞌo ta jun awas kibꞌanom, maj jastaq keleqꞌam pa ri templo, man e yoqꞌoꞌwinaq ta che ri qaDiana, ri qadios.
38 If then indeed Demetrius and the artificers that are with him have a charge against any man, the courts are held, and there are proconsuls: let them implead one another.
Ri Demetrio xuqujeꞌ ri rajchakibꞌ we kꞌo kichꞌoꞌj rukꞌ jachinaq, are kipatan ri qꞌatal taq tzij xuqujeꞌ ri qꞌatbꞌal taq tzij ri e kꞌolik. Chilaꞌ jeꞌkibꞌij wi jachike ri kꞌo pa kanimaꞌ.
39 And if ye have any dispute about other matters, it shall be terminated in a lawful assembly,
We kꞌo chi ne jun jastaq ri kiwaj, kuyaꞌo kibꞌij chaqe rech kaqamulij qibꞌ chuchomaxik.
40 For we are even in danger of being called to account for this day’s insurrection, there being no cause on account of which we can justify this tumultuary concourse:
Xibꞌibꞌal riꞌ we kabꞌix chaqe chi xa man kujniman ta chike ri ketaqan pa qawiꞌ, xa rumal ri xbꞌantaj waral kamik. Jas kꞌu kaqabꞌij riꞌ we xta chaqe ri xkꞌulmataj kamik qetaꞌm uj chi man kꞌo ta rumal.
41 and so saying, he dissolved the assembly.
Are xtoꞌtaj ri qꞌatal tzij chubꞌixik we tzij riꞌ xuꞌtaq bꞌik ri winaq cho taq kachoch.
