< Acts 23 >

1 And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brothers, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.
Paulus losa naa ma, ara denu e nasalaꞌe ao na. Ana mete namemeu basa atahori naa ra, ma olaꞌ nae, “Toronoo nggare! Au umburiiꞌ sia ia, no rala ndos. Lamatualain bubꞌuluꞌ, rala ngga meuꞌ.”
2 And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to smite him on the mouth.
Ara rena e olaꞌ taꞌo naa ma, Ananias, malangga monaeꞌ agama Yahudi a, namanasa. De ana parenda atahori mana rambariiꞌ deka Paulus ra nae, “Toꞌo bafa na!”
3 Then said Paul to him, God shall smite you, you white washed wall: for sit you to judge me after the law, and command me to be smitten contrary to the law?
Boe ma Paulus naselu no Ananias nae, “Dei fo Lamatualain toꞌo baliꞌ nggo. Ho atahori mana onaꞌ rii neneroseꞌ no cet sia deaꞌ, te mbaꞌi a namanaa tungga ralaꞌ. Ho endoꞌ sia ia, fo tao ao ma onaꞌ ndos e. Ma mae hukun au tungga hita atoran adꞌat na. Te ho mulena-langga neu atoran naa, leleꞌ ho denu ara toꞌo au.”
4 And they that stood by said, Revile you God’s high priest?
Atahori mana sia naa ra rena Paulus olaꞌ taꞌo naa ma, ara ai e rae, “Heh! Ho nda mundaa olaꞌ taꞌo naa neu hita malangga agama malangga monaen na sa!”
5 Then said Paul, I knew not, brothers, that he was the high priest: for it is written, You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people.
Ma Paulus olaꞌ nae, “Tebꞌe, do? Mete ma taꞌo naa, au oꞌe maꞌaf. Au nda bubꞌuluꞌ eni, hita malangga agama malangga monaeꞌ na sa. Memaꞌ Lamatualain pake atahori fo suraꞌ, nae ‘Afiꞌ olaꞌ deꞌulakaꞌ neu malangga mara.’”
6 But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brothers, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.
Paulus nita atahori mana endoꞌ nggero dedꞌeat agama ra ma, ana bubꞌuluꞌ nae, ara babꞌanggi dadꞌi partei rua. Ruma tungga partei Saduki, fo ramahere oi atahori mates ra nda rasodꞌa baliꞌ sa. Ara ramahere oi Lamatualain nda ma ateꞌ sia sorga sa. Ma atahori nda ma samanaꞌ saꞌ boe. Ruma fai tungga partei Farisi fo ramahere oi Lamatualain bisa tao nasodꞌa baliꞌ atahori mates ra. Ara o ramahere rae Lamatualain ma ate sia sorga, ma atahori o ma samanaꞌ boe. Boe ma Paulus olaꞌ nahereꞌ nae, “Toronoo nggare! Sadꞌi basa nggi bubꞌuluꞌ, au ia, atahori Farisi. Au ama ngga, no baꞌi ngga atahori Farisi. Ia naa, hei mae hukun au, huu au umuhere ae, Lamatualain bisa tao nasodꞌa baliꞌ atahori mates ra.” Paulus olaꞌ taꞌo naa ma, atahori Saduki ro Farisi ra rareresi, de ara esa nda maloleꞌ no esa sa. Boe ma ara saranggaa reu rua.
7 And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees: and the multitude was divided.
8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both.
9 And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisees’ part arose, and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him, let us not fight against God.
Dadꞌi basa atahori naa ra rareresi losa basa se ramue-raanggiꞌ. Basa ma, meser hira mia partei Farisi rambariiꞌ de rasalaꞌe Paulus rae, “Atahori ia nda sala sa! Seka bubꞌuluꞌ, seꞌu te atahori mates sa samana na, do, Lamatualain ate Na esa mia sorga, nema olaꞌ no e!”
10 And when there arose a great dissension, the chief captain, fearing lest Paul should have been pulled in pieces of them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring him into the castle.
Meser naa ra, olaꞌ taꞌo naa ena, te ara bau rareresi, losa malangga soldꞌadꞌu a namatau. Ana duꞌa, afiꞌ losa ara momoko risa Paulus. Naa de, ana denu soldꞌadꞌu nara onda, fo ro Paulus nisiꞌ mamana neneaꞌ a.
11 And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as you have testified of me in Jerusalem, so must you bear witness also at Rome.
Temba neu ma, Lamatuaꞌ Yesus natudꞌu ao na neu Paulus. Ana tao manggatee Paulus ralan, nae “Paul! Afiꞌ mumutau! Ia naa, ho olaꞌ soꞌal au sia Yerusalem ia ena. Musunedꞌa malolole! Dei fo ho o musi olaꞌ taꞌo naa sia Roma boe.”
12 And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul.
Mbila fefetun ma, atahori Yahudi haa nulu lena maꞌiraꞌ fo rae risa Paulus. Ara sumba rae, “Mete ma hai nda feꞌe misa Paulus sa naa, hai nda nau mia-minu sa.”
13 And they were more than forty which had made this conspiracy.
14 And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves under a great curse, that we will eat nothing until we have slain Paul.
Ara sumba basa ma, reu rafadꞌe malangga monaeꞌ agama ra no lasi-lasi adꞌat Yahudi ra rae, “Ama nggaree! Hai sumba mae, mete ma hai nda feꞌe misa Paulus sa naa, hai nda mia-minu sa.
15 Now therefore you with the council signify to the chief captain that he bring him down to you to morrow, as though you would inquire something more perfectly concerning him: and we, or ever he come near, are ready to kill him.
Hai hihii ma taꞌo ia: Amaꞌ se musi mindaa mo malangga soldꞌadꞌu monaeꞌ a, fo moꞌe e mo Paulus misiꞌ mamana nggenggero dedꞌeat agama. Tao onaꞌ a amaꞌ se rae paresaꞌ seluꞌ dedꞌea na. Dei fo hai tefa e sia dalaꞌ taladꞌan, fo misa e.”
16 And when Paul’s sister’s son heard of their lying in wait, he went and entered into the castle, and told Paul.
Te Paulus dadꞌis tou na esa rena ara maꞌiraꞌ onaꞌ naa, de ana nela nisiꞌ mamana neneaꞌ a, fo nafadꞌe toꞌo Paulus.
17 Then Paul called one of the centurions to him, and said, Bring this young man to the chief captain: for he has a certain thing to tell him.
Paulus rena basa anaꞌ a dudꞌui na ma, ana noꞌe nala malangga soldꞌadꞌu esa nae, “Ia, au ana ngga. Mo e lai-lai nisiꞌ malangga soldꞌadꞌu monae ma. Te ana nae nafadꞌe dalaꞌ esa.”
18 So he took him, and brought him to the chief captain, and said, Paul the prisoner called me to him, and prayed me to bring this young man to you, who has something to say to you.
Boe ma malangga soldꞌadꞌu a no anaꞌ a nisiꞌ malangga soldꞌadꞌu monaeꞌ a. Ana nafadꞌe nae, “Amaꞌ! Paulus, fo hai mineaꞌ a, noꞌe au fo o anaꞌ ia nema nandaa no amaꞌ. Ana nae nafadꞌe dalaꞌ esa.”
19 Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went with him aside privately, and asked him, What is that you have to tell me?
Boe ma malangga a nore nendi anaꞌ a nisiꞌ mamanaꞌ esa de akaꞌ a ruꞌa se. Ana natane nae, “Ho mae mufadꞌe au saa?’.
20 And he said, The Jews have agreed to desire you that you would bring down Paul to morrow into the council, as though they would inquire somewhat of him more perfectly.
Anaꞌ a nafadꞌe nae, “Atahori Yahudi hira maꞌiraꞌ rae risa toꞌo Paul. Ara rae rema roꞌe amaꞌ, fo fetun na, amaꞌ no toꞌo Paulus misiꞌ mamana nggenggero dedꞌeat agama. Ara eꞌedik rae paresaꞌ ramemeu toꞌo dedꞌean.
21 But do not you yield to them: for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, which have bound themselves with an oath, that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him: and now are they ready, looking for a promise from you.
Te amaꞌ afi tungga hihii nara. Huu atahori haa nulu lenaꞌ ra rae tefa amaꞌ atahori nara sia dalaꞌ, fo rae risa toꞌo Paul. Basa se sumba rae, mete ma sira nda feꞌe risa toꞌo Paul sa naa, sira nda raa-rinu sa. Basa se rahehere ena. Ara rahatiꞌ a amaꞌ nataa nae saa.”
22 So the chief captain then let the young man depart, and charged him, See you tell no man that you have showed these things to me.
Malangga a rena nala anaꞌ a dudꞌuin ma, ana nae, “Afiꞌ mufadꞌe esa boe mae, ho uma mufadꞌe au dalaꞌ ia.” Basa ma ana denu anaꞌ a baliꞌ.
23 And he called to him two centurions, saying, Make ready two hundred soldiers to go to Caesarea, and horsemen three score and ten, and spearmen two hundred, at the third hour of the night;
Basa ma, malangga soldꞌadꞌu monaeꞌ a noꞌe malangga soldꞌadꞌu rua. Ana parenda se nae, “Sadꞌia soldꞌadꞌu mana lao eiꞌ, natun rua; ma soldꞌadꞌu mana sae ndara, hitu nulu; ma soldꞌadꞌu mana toꞌu tee ra, natun rua. Tetembaꞌ ia liiꞌ sio, ama lao misiꞌ Kaisarea leo.
24 And provide them beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring him safe to Felix the governor.
Ama o sadꞌia ndara esa fee neu Paulus. Ama musi mo e malolole losa hofernor Feliks.”
25 And he wrote a letter after this manner:
Basa ma, ana suraꞌ susura fee hofernor Feliks, taꞌo ia:
26 Claudius Lysias to the most excellent governor Felix sends greeting.
“Amaꞌ hofernor Feliks. Sodꞌa-moleꞌ mia au, Klaudius Lisias.
27 This man was taken of the Jews, and should have been killed of them: then came I with an army, and rescued him, having understood that he was a Roman.
Atahori fo au haituaꞌ ia, nara na Paulus. Atahori Yahudi ra toꞌu rala e, ma raꞌe a tao risa e. Te au soldꞌadꞌu nggara rasalaꞌe e mia atahori Yahudi ra lima na. Basa ma, au bubꞌuluꞌ ana toꞌu hak atahori Roma.
28 And when I would have known the cause why they accused him, I brought him forth into their council:
Au ae bubꞌuluꞌ taꞌo bee, de atahori Yahudi ra rae tao risa e. Naa de, au o e nisiꞌ atahori Yahudi ra mamana nggenggero dedꞌeat agama na.
29 Whom I perceived to be accused of questions of their law, but to have nothing laid to his charge worthy of death or of bonds.
Te nda hambu sala na saa saꞌ boe. Memaꞌ ana nda tao deꞌulaka saa saꞌ boe. De atahori ia nda bisa masoꞌ bui sa, ma nda nandaa no hukun mate sa. Atahori sia mamana nggenggero dedꞌeat agama ra ratofa, huu nenori agama nara esaꞌ a ena na. Naa de, au o baliꞌ atahori ia nisiꞌ mamana naneaꞌ a.
30 And when it was told me how that the Jews laid wait for the man, I sent straightway to you, and gave commandment to his accusers also to say before you what they had against him. Farewell.
Te mbilaꞌ na ma, au rena oi atahori Yahudi ruma ralaꞌ esa rae risa e. Naa de, au parenda ro tuteꞌ atahori ia nisiꞌ amaꞌ. Au o ufadꞌe atahori Yahudi mana nae tao dedꞌeat labꞌan e, fo rema risiꞌ amaꞌ e. Naa fo amaꞌ rena rae fee salaꞌ saa neu e. Au susura ngga, taꞌo a ia. Makasi!”
31 Then the soldiers, as it was commanded them, took Paul, and brought him by night to Antipatris.
Basa ma, soldꞌadꞌu ra raote fo tao tungga malangga a parenda na. Tetembaꞌ naa, ara ro Paulus losa kotaꞌ esa, nara na Antipatris.
32 On the morrow they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the castle:
Mbilaꞌ na ma, soldꞌadꞌu mana sae ndara ra ro Paulus rakandoo losa kota Kaisarea. Te soldꞌadꞌu feaꞌ ra, baliꞌ Yerusalem reu.
33 Who, when they came to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, presented Paul also before him.
Ara losa Kaisarea ma, rendi susura a nisiꞌ hofernor. Ma ara fee Paulus nisiꞌ hofernor lima na.
34 And when the governor had read the letter, he asked of what province he was. And when he understood that he was of Cilicia;
Hofernor baca basa susura a ma, ana natane Paulus nae, “Ho atahori bee se?” Paulus nataa nae, “Au, atahori mia nusaꞌ Kilikia, amaꞌ.”
35 I will hear you, said he, when your accusers are also come. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod’s judgment hall.
Hofernor rena nala Paulus naꞌo naa ma, ana nahine oi Paulus toꞌu hak atahori Roma. De ana olaꞌ nae, “Au toꞌu parendaꞌ sia ia. Dei fo au mana nggero dedꞌeat ma. Te, ata musi tahani atahori mana rae radꞌedꞌea ro hoꞌ ra losa ia dei, fo au feꞌe paresaꞌ dedꞌeat ma.” Boe ma, ana denu soldꞌadꞌu ra tao Paulus nisiꞌ sira mamana na, sia ume panggat hofernor sodꞌa na, fo dalahulu na mane Herodes nafefelaꞌ a.
