Acts 25
1 Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days he ascended from Caesarea to Jerusalem.
Hanchu Festus'n ha ramhuol hah a tunga, sûnthum suole chu Caesarea renga Jerusalema a sea.
2 Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him,
Mahan ochaisingei le Juda ruoipungeiin Paul hah an hong tuonga an nônna Festus kôm han an ngêna
3 And desired favour against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him.
an nuomna thope ngeia Paul hah Jerusalema hong tuong rangin, asikchu lampuia lei that rang an bôk sikin.
4 But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he himself would depart shortly thither.
Festus a thuona, “Paul hi Caesarea intâng ina lei dar ania male keima khom mason se nôk lei rang ki ni.
5 Let them therefore, said he, which among you are able, go down with me, and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him.
Nin ruoipungei Caesarea tena mi jûi senla ngei ma miriem hah a tho lei minchâina aomin chu juong nôn rese ngei,” a tia.
6 And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down unto Caesarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to be brought.
Festus hah sûn riet mini, sûn sôm mini, anni ngei leh ala châma male Caesarea tieng a se zoi. Anangtûka chu roijêkna ânsunga Paul hah hong tuong rangin chong a pêka.
7 And when he was come, the Jews which came down from Jerusalem stood round about, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul, which they could not prove.
Paul hah a hong tung lechu a kôm han Jerusalem renga juong Judangei hah a rihîla an indinga an nônna thurchi tamtak an misîra, minthârna man mak ngei.
8 While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Caesar, have I offended any thing at all.
Aniatachu Paul han athenin ânrunga: “Judangei balam roia, Biekin roia nônchu Caesar chunga khom ite minchâiin doina lei tho mu-ung,” a tia.
9 But Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and said, Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me?
Hannirese Festus han Judangei modômna man rang a nuomna, masikin Paul kôm han a rekela, “Jerusalema sea, ka makunga nang an nônna ngei hih khi taka hôn jêk rang nu nuom mo?” a tia.
10 Then said Paul, I stand at Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest.
Paul'n, “Caesar roijêkna makunga ko roi an jêkna muna jêk pea om rang piela inding ki ni. Judangei chunga ite minchâina dôn mu ung ti nangma khom ni riet sai ania.
11 For if I be an offender, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be none of these things whereof these accuse me, no man may deliver me unto them. I appeal unto Caesar.
Balam ki minchâia, thi rang dôrin minchâina ko dôn anîn chu, thi rang khomin kên phal. Hannirese min nônna ngei hi adikloi anin chu tutên an kôm mi pêk thei no ni ngei Caesar kôm tung ki tih,” a tia.
12 Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed unto Caesar? unto Caesar shalt thou go.
Hanchu Festus roijêkpungei, a chongpui suole chu, “Caesar kôm tung rang nu nuom lam angtakin tung ni tih,” a tia.
13 And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came unto Caesarea to salute Festus.
Sûn idôr mini avun suole chu Rêng Agrippa le Bernice Caesarea an hong tunga Festus mirit an pêka.
14 And when they had been there many days, Festus declared Paul's cause unto the king, saying, There is a certain man left in bonds by Felix:
Sûn tamtak an om nûkin, Festus'n Paul thurchi ngei hah Rêng kôm han a misîr pea Felix han mi inkhat intâng ina hin a mâka.
15 About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me, desiring to have judgment against him.
Jerusalema ke sea han, Juda Ochaisingei le Juda ruoipungeiin asân an lei nônna dikloi minchang ngêt rangin ko kôm an ngêna.
16 To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before that he which is accused have the accusers face to face, and have licence to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him.
Aniatachu hi anghin ki tipe ngei, “An nônpu le a nônpungei mâi intongin, an nônpu han an nônna roia han a dikna thurchi misîr rang a riet khâi noa, dikloi ani ti ânlang mân chu mojôk rang hih Rom mingei balam nimak.
17 Therefore, when they were come hither, without any delay on the morrow I sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought forth.
Mahin an juong tung suo nûkin zora sôtloiin anangtûka roijêkna taka kên sunga, ama hah hong tuong rangin chong ke pêka.
18 Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought none accusation of such things as I supposed:
A nônpungei hah an indinga, aniatachu Paul chunga han ma dôra dikloina khoite an misîr angin riet mu-ung.
19 But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and of one Yahushua, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.
An inkhalnangei senkhat ha chu sakhuo roia ania mi inkhat a riming Jisua an ti, ama hah a thia; aniatachu Paul'n ama hah aring nôk a tia.
20 And because I doubted of such manner of questions, I asked him whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters.
Keiman chu ma thurchi ngei ha chu a jêkna chang khom riet mu-ung, masikin keiman Paul ke rekela Jerusalema a sea mahan ajêk rangin nu nuom mo? tiin ke rekela.
21 But when Paul had appealed to be reserved unto the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I might send him to Caesar.
Aniatachu Paul han Caesar jêk pe rangin a ngên sikin, ki min se thei mân chu lei donsûi rangin chong ke pêk ngei ani,” a tia.
22 Then Agrippa said unto Festus, I would also hear the man myself. To morrow, said he, thou shalt hear him.
Agrippa han Festus kôm, “Kei khom ma miriem hah a chong rangâi rang ku nuom,” a tia. Festus'n “Nangtûka rangâi ni tih,” tiin a thuona.
23 And on the morrow, when Agrippa was come, and Bernice, with great pomp, and was entered into the place of hearing, with the chief captains, and principal men of the city, at Festus' commandment Paul was brought forth.
Anangtûka chu Agrippa le Bernice han inlal takin mipuingei intûpna an va lûta, râlmi ulienngei le khopuilien sûnga ulienngei khom an oma. Hanchu Festus chongpêkin Paul an hong tuonga.
24 And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men which are here present with us, ye see this man, about whom all the multitude of the Jews have dealt with me, both at Jerusalem, and also here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.
Festus han, “Rêng Agrippa le kin kôma omngei murdi, hi mi hih nin mu ania, Judangei murdi'n hi taka omngei le Jerusalema omngei murdi'n ko kôm an juong nônna min ring khâiloi rangin an in-iek.
25 But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and that he himself hath appealed to Augustus, I have determined to send him.
Hannisenla thina rang dôr ite tho minchâina dôn mak ti ki rieta. Aniatachu ama'n Ceasar kôm tung rang a nuom sikin tîr rangin ki ti ani.
26 Of whom I have no certain thing to write unto my master. Wherefore I have brought him forth before you, and specially before thee, O king Agrippa, that, after examination had, I might have somewhat to write.
Aniatachu, a thurchi hi Ceasar kôm ki miziek rang hi ânthârin riet mu-ung, masikin nin kôm ko hong tuong ani hi, Rêng Agrippa nangma kôm hin ani uol, a chungroi nin phuol suole, a miziek rang imakhat ko dôn thei rang.
27 For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not withal to signify the crimes laid against him.
Asikchu mi intâng ina om, an nônna bi inthârlaka ril loia tîr rang chu keima rangin omzie boi aphuo rang,” a tia.
