< Acts 20 >
1 And after the uproar was ceased, Paul called unto [him] the disciples, and embraced [them], and departed for to go into Macedonia.
Olpungnah a paa van neh hnukbang rhoek te Paul loh a tah tih a hloep. A toidal tih Makedonia ah caeh hamla suntla.
2 And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much exhortation, he came into Greece,
Te rhoek pingpang a hil vaengah khaw amih te olka neh muep a thaphoh phoeiah Greek la pawk.
3 And [there] abode three months. And when the Jews laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria, he purposed to return through Macedonia.
Hla thum a om phoeiah Syria la kat ham cai dae Judah rhoek loh anih te mangtaengnah a khueh dongah Makedonia longah bal ham lungbuei om.
4 And there accompanied him into Asia Sopater of Berea; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheus; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.
Te vaengah anih te Berea kah Purrhu capa Sopataru, Thesaalonika kah Aristarkhu neh Sekundu, Derbi kah Kaiyu neh Thimothy, Asia kah Tukhiko neh Trophimu loh a puei uh.
5 These going before tarried for us at Troas.
Te rhoek loh lamhma uh tih Troas ah kaimih n'rhing uh.
6 And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came unto them to Troas in five days; where we abode seven days.
Kaimih tah vaidamding khohnin phoeiah Philipi lamkah ka kat uh tih, hnin nga khuiah Troas kah amih taengla ka pawk uh. Te ah te hnin rhih ka om uh.
7 And upon the first [day] of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.
Te vaengkah Sabbath a voeikhat dongah tah kaimih taengkah aka tingtun rhoek ham Paul loh vaidam a aeh pah tih amih te a thuingong puei. A vuen ah bal ham a cai dongah ihdulh duela olka te a yueng.
8 And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were gathered together.
Te vaengah ka tingtun nah imhman ah hmaiim muep om.
9 And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul was long preaching, he sunk down with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead.
Te vaengah cadong pakhat, a ming ah Eutukhu tah bangbuet ah ngol. Paul kah a thui te a sen dongah a ih te muelh rhoi. Ih a rhoi vaengah imhman boengthum lamkah tla thuk tih a duek la a phoel uh.
10 And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing [him] said, Trouble not yourselves; for his life is in him.
Paul khaw suntla tih anih te a bakop thil tih a sambai phoeiah, “Sarhingrhup la om uh boeh. A khuiah a hinglu om pueng,” a ti nah.
11 When he therefore was come up again, and had broken bread, and eaten, and talked a long while, even till break of day, so he departed.
A yoeng hang phoeiah vaidam te a aeh pah tih yulh a ten uh. Te phoeiah mincang duela a thui tih khoe uh.
12 And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.
Tedae cadong te a hing la a khuen uh vaengkah a ngaimong uh te a phoeng mai moenih.
13 And we went before to ship, and sailed unto Assos, there intending to take in Paul: for so had he appointed, minding himself to go afoot.
Kaimih tah Asso la kat ham sangpho taengla ka lamhma uh. Te lamkah tah Paul te loh ham cai uh coeng. Amah khaw lan hamla a cai tangtae la a om coeng dongah a uen van coeng.
14 And when he met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene.
Te dongah Asso ah ka humcui uh vaengah anih te ka loh uh tih Mitulene la ka pawk uh.
15 And we sailed thence, and came the next [day] over against Chios; and the next [day] we arrived at Samos, and tarried at Trogyllium; and the next [day] we came to Miletus.
Te lamloh a vuen ah ka kat uh tih Khios rhalvangan ka pha uh. A vuen bal ah Samos te ka pha uh tih hnin at a om phoeiah Miletu la ka pawk uh.
16 For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, because he would not spend the time in Asia: for he hasted, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost.
Paul tah Asia ah yulh a koe ham a om pawt dongah Ephisa te poeng ham mulmet uh. Pentekos hnin ah amah om thai atah tila Jerusalem pha ham te a rhingda.
17 And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church.
Te vaengah hlangboel kah a ham rhoek te Miletu lamloh Ephisa la a tah tih a khue.
18 And when they were come to him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all seasons,
Te dongah a taengla ha pawk uh vaengah amih te, “Asia ah ka cawt khohnin lamhma lamloh ka om tue khuiah nangmih neh metla ka om khaw na ming uh.
19 Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews:
Tlayaenah, mikphi boeih neh Boeipa sal ka bi vaengah he Judah rhoek kah a mangtaengnah loh kai taengah noemcainah a thoeng sak.
20 [And] how I kept back nothing that was profitable [unto you], but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house,
Nangmih taengah puen ham pawt tih im takuem ah langya la nangmih thuituen ham tah aka rhoei rhoek taengah khaw ka tonga moenih.
21 Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
Pathen taengah yutnah neh mamih Boeipa Jesuh ah tangnah khueh ham te Judah rhoek neh Greek rhoek taengah khaw ka laipai coeng.
22 And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
Tedae Jerusalem la caeh ham ni Mueihla loh kai m'pin coeng he. Te ah te kai taengah aka thoeng ham khaw ka ming pawh.
23 Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.
Tedae hloong neh phacipphabaem loh kai n'naeh thil te Mueihla Cim loh kai ham kho takuem ah laipai tih a thui.
24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
Pathen kah lungvatnah olthangthen te laipai puei tih, Boeipa Jesuh taengkah ka dang bibi neh ka hmatoeng khah hamla ka hinglu lungthen pataeng ol hong lam ni ka khueh coeng.
25 And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
Ram te hoe ham ka hil he a khuiah nangmih loh kai maelhmai boeih na hmu uh voel mahpawh tila ka ming ngawn coeng he.
26 Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I [am] pure from the blood of all [men].
Te dongah hlang boeih kah a thii lamloh a caih la ka om te tihnin khohnin ah nangmih ham ka laipai coeng.
27 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.
Pathen kah mangtaengnah te nangmih taengah boeih ka thui mahnim? Te dongah ka tonga moenih.
28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
Namamih neh boiva boeih te khaw ngaithuen uh. Te khuiah nangmih tah Pathen kah hlangboel, a thii neh a kutloh te dawndah ham Mueihla Cim loh hiphoelkung la n'khueh coeng.
29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
Ka caehnah hnukah nangmih taengla uithang aka tlung te ha kun vetih boiva khaw hlun mahpawh tila ka ming.
30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
Te vaengah nangmih khui lamkah namah rhoek ha phoe ni. Hnukbang rhoek te amah hnukla mawt ham paimaelh ol a thui ni.
31 Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.
Te dongah hak uh laeh. Kum thum khuiah, khoyin khothaih mikphi neh toeng mueh la pakhat rhip kan rhalrhing sak te poek uh.
32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
A lungvatnah olka dongah hlinsai thai ham neh a ciim tangtae rhoek boeih khuiah rho phaeng ham khaw Pathen taengah nangmih kan tloeng coeng he.
33 I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel.
Tangka khaw, sui khaw, pueinak khaw ka nai moenih.
34 Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands have ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were with me.
Kamah neh ka taengkah aka om rhoek kah a ngoengaih dongah ka kut loh a bi te khaw na ming uh.
35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
Tattloel rhoek bomcen ham a kuek dongah ka thakthae te khaw nangmih taengah boeih kan tueng coeng. Te dongah Boeipa Jesuh amah loh, “N'dang lakah m'paek dongah yoethen om ngai,” a ti olka te poek ham om.
36 And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all.
He he a thui phoeiah a khuklu a cungkueng tih amih boeih te a thangthui puei.
37 And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul’s neck, and kissed him,
Te vaengkah hlang boeih te a rhah neh boeih om uh. Paul kah a rhawn te a kop thil uh tih a mok uh.
38 Sorrowing most of all for the words which he spake, that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him unto the ship.
Olpuei la a mikhmai hmuh ham om voel mahpawh tila a thui ol loh hlang boeih a yuek. Te phoeiah anih te sangpho taengla a thak uh.
