< Acts 15 >
1 And certain men which came down from Judæa taught the brethren, [and said], Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
Nyi meegonv Judia lokv Antiok lo aanya toku okv mvngjwngnv vdwa tamsar sarab toku, “Nonu Moses gv Pvbv aingbv ayakmvu sudubv rinya mabolo nonuv ringnama paamare.”
2 When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.
Paul okv Barnabas bunyi so gv lvgabv bunua lvkobv achialvbv larmi sunya toku, vkvlvgabv Paul okv Barnabas okv Antiok gv nyi meegonv Jerusalem lo vngla okv Apostol vdwa okv nyigagatv vdwgv lvkobv soogv raagv dvnam sum kaarung svgo vla japmi sunya toku.
3 And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
Gvrja lokv bunua kanam toku bunuv lamtv lo vngdungto; okv bunu vbv Poenesia okv Samaria bv vngpik nyato, bunua oguaingbv Jentail vdwv Pwknvyarnv gvlo aadu kudw um mimpa kartoku; so yunying ngv mvngjwngnv vdwlo gwlwk jinamv mvnwng ngv achialvbv himpu nyatoku.
4 And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and [of] the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.
Vdwlo bunu Jerusalem lo vngchi tokudw, bunua gvrja vdwv alvbv naarwk sinyatoku, Apostol vdwa, okv nyigagatv vdwa, Paul la Barnabas bunyi Pwknvyarnv oguaingbv bunyi am rinv la ripvkudw um japji toku.
5 But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command [them] to keep the law of Moses.
Vbvritola Parisis apam lokv mvngjwngnv meegonv dakto la okv minto, “Jentail vdwv ayakmvu rirungtoka okv Moses gv Pvbv nga tvvdubv mintoka.”
6 And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter.
Apostol vdwv okv nyigagatv vdwv so tvvka nam um alv bvju vla kaarwk sunyato.
7 And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men [and] brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
Achialvbv raakwng minsuro kochingbv Pitar dakrap la minto, “Ngoogv ajin vdwv, nonu chinyado kvvlo gvngv Pwknvyarnv nga nonugv pingko loka goklinto Jentail nyi vdwgvlo Alvnv Yunying nga japji dubv, vkvlvgabv ho bunu tvvria tvla okv mvngjwng dubv.
8 And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as [he did] unto us;
Okv Pwknvyarnv yvvdw nyichar mvnwng gv mvngnam saknama chinv, ngonua rinam aingbv Jentail nyi vdwaka Darwknv Dowa ninyigv jinama kaatam jito.
9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
Hv ngonua okv bunua pingkolo yvvnyika akusubv mvngnam kaama; hv bunugv rimur am mvngnga jipvku ogulvgavbolo bunuka mvngjwngto.
10 Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
Vbvrikunamv, vjak nonu ogulvgabv mvngjwngnv vdwgv koching lo vge nga tulwk tola Pwknvyarnvnyi ingka dunv vmalo ngonugv abuapa ngvka malo ngonu mvnwng vka um baknyure?
11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.
Vv makv! Ngonu mvngjwngnam lvgabv okv Ahtu Jisu gv anyuaya ngv ringpv kunv, vbvching bunu nyika rdunv.”
12 Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles by them.
Nyitwng dopam mvnwng ngv Barnabas okv Paul bunyi gvlo Pwknvyarnv gv Jentail nyi vdwlo lamrwpadubv okv kaasartabo dubv rinam am bunyi gv mimpa jiku nama tvvriala choibv doonyato.
13 And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men [and] brethren, hearken unto me:
Vdwlo bunu japnya kunam gola, Jems japrapto: “Ngoogv ajin vdwa, nga tvriato!
14 Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.
Saimon vjv mimbwk jigv ibv oguaingbv Pwknvyarnv Jentail nyi vdwa ninyigv chigudabia nga kaatam kunama okv bunua ninyigv nyigvbv laatulake bv naarwk suku nama.
15 And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
Nyijwk vdwgv gaam vdwv so sum lvkobv tulwk minggvto. Kitap lo vbv mindu,
16 After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:
‘Ahtu minto, So kochingbv ngo akur riku, okv Dabid gv karv nga lvkodv laakumlaapa riku. Ngo darmwk kunama um mvdin rikunv okv lvkodv um gwlwk dukubv mvdin riku.
17 That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.
Okv vkvlvgabv nyi mvnwng ngv ngo gvlo aariku, Jentail nyi mvnwng vka yvv bunua ngo atubogv bv mvngla gokku nam vdwa.
18 Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world. (aiōn )
Vkvlvgabv vbvching Ahtu minto, yvvdw sum krimklu lokv chimu dukubv mvkunv.’ (aiōn )
19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:
“So si ngoogv mvngnamv,” Jems japdungto, ho ngonu mvnwng ngv Pwknvyarnv gvlo aakur kunv “Jentail vdwa ridwkriku jimabv.
20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and [from] fornication, and [from] things strangled, and [from] blood.
Vmabvya, ngonuya bunua siti go lvkto kula mimpa lajuka darwkmanv ogugoka dvma bvkv ogulvgavbolo ho vv morti lo jilwknamv; bunua yoomur minsu mabvka; okv svnwngsvmin hoksar nama vmalo oyi am dvma bvkv vla miya lajukv vla minto
21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
Moses gv pvbv nga kvvlo lokv Jius kumkunaamlo doonu aludwkibv puri rijikito okv ninyigv gaam nga banggu mvnwnglo japjito.”
22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; [namely], Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:
Vbvrikunamv Apostol vdwvla okv nyigagatv vdwv, Pwknvyarnv gv nyi mvnwng ngv doodum toku, bunugv ajin lokv darlin gvrikula Paul okv Barnabas gv vngkulo Antiok bv vngmu dubv mintoku. Vbvrikunamv mvngjwngnv vdwgv mvngdv kunam nyi anyigo Barnabas vnam Judas nyila Silasnyi darlin toku.
23 And they wrote [letters] by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren [send] greeting unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia:
Okv bunua siti meego lvkto kula bunua lvkobv vngmu toku: “Ngonu, Apostol okv nyigagatv vdwv, nonugv abwngboru, Jentail doonv Sairia, okv Silisia gv Antiok lo rinyabu vdwa kumrwk sidunv.
24 Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, [Ye must] be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no [such] commandment:
Ngonugv apam lokv nyi meegonv ngonua vbvkv vla mingkuriku mabv vngla nonua mindwkmingku pvkv vla ngonu tvvpa pvku.
25 It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
Okv vkvlvgabv ngonu mvnwng ngv doodum toku okv nyi meego darlin laku nonu gvlo vngmu dukubv vla tulwk pvkunv bunu ngonugv ajin Paul okv Barnabas bunyia lvkobv vngriku,
26 Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
yvvbunudw atugv singdung nga mvngmabv Ahtu Jisu Kristo gv kudungkua lvgabv mvngla rinvgo.
27 We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell [you] the same things by mouth.
Ngonu nonu gvlo vngmure, vbvrikunamv, Judas okv Silas bunyi nonua nyidum bv ngonugv lvknam so apia bv mimpa jire.
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
Darwknv Dow vla okv ngonu tulwk minsu pvnv so gv ridung aba so gv lvvyalo nonu gvlo oguaingbv adwkaku go lvkmare vla:
29 That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.
Morti lo erinpeelwknam dvnama dvma bvka, oyi dvma bvka; svnwngsvmin hoksar nama dvma bvka; okv nonu atubongv yoomur nyama bvka. Nonu so vdw sum rimabv ribamdobam bolo alvre. Ngonugv ayanam mvnglwk lvkobv doming gvvre.”
30 So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle:
Gingdung mvnwng ngv vngnya toku okv Antiok lo vngchi nyalaku, hoka bunu mvngjwngnv apam mvnwng ngv dookum tokula okv bunua siti nga jinya toku.
31 [Which] when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.
Nyitwng ngv siti nga purila, tamsar doin nga puri ripa tokula, bunu mvnwng ngv himpu punya toku.
32 And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed [them].
Judas okv Silas, bunu atubongvka nyijwk go, bunugv lvkobv mvngchigo japnya la doonyato, bunua mintvmiru jito okv vngdwng mooto.
33 And after they had tarried [there] a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles.
Hoka meego doopi kula koching nga, bunu mvnwng ngv mvngjwngnv lvkobv sarsopoyo pikula okv mvngjwngnv vdwv bunua kanam nvgv dokubv vngkur motoku.
34 Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still.
Vbvritola Silas hokaku doodu kubv mvngtoku.
35 Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
Paul okv Barnabas apogo Antiok lo dootoku, okv bunugv lvkobv nyi meegonyi tamsar nyala okv Ahtu gv gaam nga japnyato.
36 And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, [and see] how they do.
Meego nvgv dw kochingso Paul Barnabasnyi minto, “Kvlai ngonu vngkur lakuju ogolo ngonu Ahtu gv gaam nga banggu mvnwnglo ngonugv mvngjwngnv vdwa japji kunam nga kaakar lakuju, okv kvlai ngonu bunu ogu ripvkudw kaanya lakuju.”
37 And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark.
Barnabas Jon Marknyi bunua lvkobv vnggv dubv mvngkato,
38 But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.
vbvrinamv Paulnyi vnggv dubv um mvngka mato, vkvlvgabv ninyia bunugv risv nga lvkobv rinya gvla doomin gvvmado, vbvritola bunua Pampilia lo topak pikula okv vngkur toku.
39 And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed asunder one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto Cyprus;
Hokaku achialvbv larkwng minsu pikula, okv Barnabas Marknyi svpw lokv Saipras bv vnggv toku,
40 And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God.
hoka Paul Silasnyi gaktoku, okv vnglintoku, mvngjwngnv vdwv Ahtu gv anyuaya nga alv bvkv hvming gvvtoku.
41 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.
Hv Sairia bvla Silisia bv vngpik kunam, Gvrja vdwa gwlwk ha jitoku.
