Acts 25
1 Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days he ascended from Cæsarea to Jerusalem.
Festus-na lam aduda lakpa numit humnigi matungda mahakna Caesarea-dagi Jerusalem-da chatlammi.
2 Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him,
Mapham aduda athoiba purohitsing amadi Jihudisinggi luchingbasingna mahakki mangda laklaga Paul-gi mathakta wakatsing pukhatlammi.
3 And desired favour against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him.
Paul-bu Jerusalem-da thabinaba Festus-ki maphamda makhoina thoujal nijarammi. Maramdi makhoina Paul-bu lambida lumlaga hatnanaba sarou ama sillammi.
4 But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Cæsarea, and that he himself would depart shortly thither.
Festus-na paokhum pirak-i, “Paul-di Caesarea-da phadok ama oina thamli aduga ei isamak mapham aduda thuna hallagani.
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.
Eihakka loinana Caesarea-da nakhoigi luchingbasingga chattuna mapham aduda nupa aduna karigumba aranba touramba oirabadi mangonda maral sisanu.”
6 And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down unto Cæsarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to be brought.
Adudagi Festus-na numit nipani nattraga tarani makhoiga loinana leitharaba matungda Caesarea-da chatlammi. Mathanggi numitta mahakna wayel phambeida phamduna Paul-bu pusilaknaba yathang pirammi.
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-na maphamduda thunglabada Jerusalem-dagi lakpa Jihudisingna mahakki akoibada leplammi aduga khudam piba ngamdaba luraba wakat kaya magi maiyokta piba hourammi.
8 While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Cæsar, have I offended any thing at all.
Adubu Paul-na masa ngakthokchaduna hairak-i, “Jihudisinggi Wayel Yathang nattraga Mapugi Sanglen-gi mayokta nattraga Rome-gi ningthourelgi maiyokta aranba amata eina toukhide.”
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?
Adubu Festus-na Jihudisingdagi chanbiba phangba pamlammi. Maram aduna mahakna Paul-da hanglak-i, “Nahakna Jerusalem-da chattuna wakatsing asigidamak mapham aduda eigi mangda wayenba nahak yaningbra?”
10 Then said Paul, I stand at Cæsar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest.
Maduda Paul-na khumlak-i, “Eibu wayel tougadaba Ningthourelmakki wayel phambei mamangda ei lepchari. Jihudisingda eina aranba amata toukhide haibasi nahak nasamakna ningthijana khangbiribani.
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 Cæsar.
Karigumba eina wayel thugaikhiba leiraba amadi sibagi cheirak phangbada matik chaba karigumba ama toukhiba leiramlabadi eihak sibada yadaba toude. Adubu karigumba makhoina eigi ithakta siriba iralsing asi amata chumdrabadi, kana amatana eibu makhoida sinnaba ngamloi. Eina Ningthourelda wakatchari.”
12 Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed unto Cæsar? unto Cæsar shalt thou go.
Adudagi Festus-na mahakki phamnaibasingga wa tanaraga khumlak-i, “Nahakna Ningthourelda wakatchare maram aduna nahak Ningthourelgi maphamda chatlagani.”
13 And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came unto Cæsarea to salute Festus.
Numit khara leiraga Ningthou Agrippa amasung Bernice Caesarea-da Festus-pu makhoigi ikai khumnaba utnaba laklammi.
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:
Mapham aduda numit khara kuina leiraba matungda Festus-na ningthouda Paul-gi phibhamgi maramda sandokna takladuna hairak-i, “Felix-na phadok oina thamlamba mi ama mapham asida lei
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.
aduga eina Jerusalem-da chatpa matamda Jihudisinggi athoiba purohitsing amasung ahal lamansingna magi mathakta wakatsing puraktuna amadi mahak maral leire hainaba eingonda haijakhi.
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.
Adubu maral theijillaba mahak aduna maral siribasing aduga maiyoknabagi khudongchaba leiba tai aduga mangonda maral siribasing adugi maiyokta mahakna masa ngakthokchanaba wa ngangbagi khudongchaba phangdringeida mi adubu makhoida pithokpa haibasi eikhoi Rome-gi misinggi chatnabi natte haina eina makhoida hai.
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.
Adudagi makhoina mapham asida lakpa matamda thinthadana mathanggi numitta eina wayel phambeida phamkhi amasung nupa adubu pusillaknaba yathang pirammi.
18 Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought none accusation of such things as I supposed:
Mahakki maiyokta maral siribasing aduna lepkhatlaklammi, adubu eina khallubagumna karigumba phattaba amata toukhibagi maral amata makhoina mangonda siramde.
19 But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and of one Jesus, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.
Adugi mahutta makhoina toukhiba haibabu makhoigi laininggi maramda aduga sikhraba adubu Paul-nadi hingli haiba Jisu kouba nupa amagi maramda makhoiga wa khara yetnakhi.
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.
Hiramsing asigi maramda karamna eina pao phanggadage haiba chamamnarabada eina Paul-da mahak Jerusalem-da chattuna mapham aduda theijilliba maralsing asigi maramda wayenba pambra haina hangkhi.
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 Cæsar.
Adubu Paul-na mahakpu ngak senduna thambinaba amadi Ningthourelna warep adu tahanbinaba haijarakkhi. Maram aduna eina mahakpu Ningthourelgi maphamda thadriphaoba mahakpu ngak senduna thamnanaba yathang pire.”
22 Then Agrippa said unto Festus, I would also hear the man myself. To morrow, said he, thou shalt hear him.
Maduda Agrippa-na Festus-ta hairak-i, “Ei isamak mi asina haiba taning-i.” Festus-na paokhum pirak-i, “Nahakna hayeng mahakki wa tagani.”
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.
Mathanggi numitta Agrippa amasung Bernice achouba sem sabaga loinana miyam tinnapham aduda lanmigi makoksing amadi sahar adugi masak naiba misingga loinana changlakkhi. Aduga Festus-na yathang piduna Paul-bu manungda pusillakkhi.
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-na hairak-i, “Ningthou Agrippa amadi eikhoiga loinana tilliba mi pumnamak: Nakhoina uriba mi asi mapham asida leiba amadi Jerusalem-da leiba Jihudi pumnamakna mahakki mathakta wakat purak-i. Mahak hingbada matik chadre haina makhoina kanna lao-i.
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.
Adubu sibagi cheirak phangba yaba kari amata mahakna toukhide haiba eina khangle. Adubu mahakna mahakki wakat adu Ningthourelda haijaba maramna eina mabu Rome-da thanaba leple.
26 Of whom I have no certain thing to write unto my lord. 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.
Magi maramda Ningthourelda inaba areppa wa karisu leitri. Maram aduna mahakki maramda thijillaba matungda karigumba khara i-ba yanaba eina mapham asida nakhoi pumnamakki mangda thoidok hendokna Ningthou Agrippa-gi mamangda mahakpu purakpani.
27 For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not withal to signify the crimes laid against him.
Maramdi phadok amabu magi mathakta leiba maral adu haidana Rome-da thaba haibasi maram chade haina eina khalli.”
