Acts 10
1 And there was a certain man in Caesarea, by name Cornelius, a centurion from a cohort that is called Italian,
Caesarea khua ah Cornelius a kici khat om hi, ama sia Italy ngalkap hon, a kici ngalkap zakhat uk ngalkapmang a hihi,
2 pious, and fearing God with all his house, also doing many kind acts to the people, and always imploring God;
Ama sia biakna sang ah a kipia khat hi a, a innkuan bup taw Pathian zakta, mizawng te huna tampi pia a, tatsat ngawl in Pathian tung ah thu a ngen pa a hihi.
3 he saw in a vision openly, as it were the ninth hour of the day, a messenger of God coming in to him, and saying to him, “Cornelius”;
Nitak nai thum kiim pawl in a thiangtak in a mangmuna sung ah, Pathian vantungmi khat a kung ah hongpai a, Cornelius, ci in sam hi.
4 and he having looked earnestly on him, and becoming afraid, said, “What is it, Lord?” And he said to him, “Your prayers and your kind acts came up for a memorial before God,
Tua vantungmi laukawm in en a, bang thu ziam, Topa? ci hi. Vantungmi in, na thungetna te le mizawngte na hu nate Pathian mai ah theng a, Pathian in hong ciamte hi.
5 and now send men to Joppa, and send for a certain one Simon, who is surnamed Peter;
Tu in mihing pawlkhat Joppa ah paisak in, Simon Peter kici pa samsak tan.
6 this one lodges with a certain Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea; this one will speak to you what you must do.”
Ama sia tuipi hui ah a teang savun vawt Simon inn ah zintung hi: hi Simon inn sia tuihui ah om a, ama in na vawt tu a kiphu te hong son tu hi, ci hi.
7 And when the messenger who is speaking to Cornelius went away, having called two of his servants, and a pious soldier of those waiting on him continually,
Cornelius a paupui vantungmi a heakkik zawkciang in, a naseam ni le biakna sang ki pia a, tatsat ngawl in ama a cing ngalkap khat sam hi;
8 and having expounded all things to them, he sent them to Joppa.
Hi thu te theampo a son zawkciang in, Joppa ah paisak hi.
9 And on the next day, as these are proceeding on the way, and are drawing near to the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour,
A zingciang in, amate khual a haw uh laitak, Joppa a thet dektak uh ciang, Peter sia sun nai sawmleni kiim pawl in, inn tung ah thungen tu in kato hi:
10 and he became very hungry, and wished to eat; and they making ready, there fell on him a trance,
Peter sia a ngilkial mama a, an ne nuam napi: an neak tu a vawt laitak in mangmu hi.
11 and he beholds Heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending to him, as a great sheet, bound at the four corners, and let down on the earth,
Van kihong a, puan a ki pheak kingli nei a lian mama na koina taw akibang khat leitung ama kung ah hong ki khiasuk mu hi:
12 in which were all the four-footed beasts of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of the sky,
A sung ah peang li nei nganhing a tatuam, sapi te, a bokvak te le van a leang vacim te om hi.
13 and there came a voice to him: “Having risen, Peter, slay and eat.”
Aw khat in ama tung ah, Peter awng; tho in, ngo in a, ne in, ci hi.
14 And Peter said, “Not so, Lord; because at no time did I eat anything common or unclean”;
Ahihang Peter in, hi ngawl hi, Topa awng; banghangziam cile a nin le a thiangtho ngawl te ne ngei ngawl khi hi, ci hi.
15 and [there is] a voice again a second time to him: “What God cleansed, you do not declare common”;
Pathian in a thianthosak te nin hi ci heak in, taciang tua aw in a nivei na son thua hi.
16 and this was done three times, and again was the vessel received up to Heaven.
Hisia thumvei dong tabang in vawt hi: taciang tua na koina sia van ah ki lato kik hi.
17 And as Peter was perplexed in himself what the vision that he saw might be, then, behold, the men who have been sent from Cornelius, having made inquiry for the house of Simon, stood at the gate,
Peter in hi mangmuna a mu sia a khiakna a lungman laitak in, en vun, Cornelius kung pan a paisak te in Simon inn zong in kongbiang mai ah ding uh hi.
18 and having called, they were asking if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, lodges here.
Taciang a sap zawkciang in, Peter a kici Simon sia hiak ah hong tung ziam, ci in dong uh hi.
19 And Peter thinking about the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men seek you;
Peter in tua mangmuna thu a ngaisut laitak in, Thaa in, en in, mihing thum in nang hong zong hi.
20 but having risen, go down and go on with them, doubting nothing, because I have sent them”;
Tua ahikom tho in a, tuaksuk in, bangma lungmang heak in, banghangziam cile amate sia keima i sawl a hihi, ci hi.
21 and Peter having come down to the men who have been sent from Cornelius to him, said, “Behold, I am he whom you seek, what [is] the cause for which you are present?”
Tua zawkciang in Peter sia Cornelius i sawl te kung ah tuaksuk a, en vun, na zon uh sia keima khi hi: banghang in hongpai nu ziam? ci hi.
22 And they said, “Cornelius, a centurion, a man righteous and fearing God, well testified to, also, by all the nation of the Jews, was divinely warned by a holy messenger to send for you, to his house, and to hear sayings from you.”
Amate in, ngalkap zakhat uk ngalkap mangpa, mi thutang, Pathian a zakta le Judah minam theampo sung ah minpha, Cornelius in Pathian kung pan kidop piakna thu theng a, a thiangtho vantungmi in ama inn ah hongsawl tu hi, taciang na thu ngai tu hi, ci hi.
23 Having called them in, therefore, he lodged them, and on the next day Peter went forth with them, and certain of the brothers from Joppa went with him,
Tua zawkciang in Peter in amate sia innsung ah sam a, zan taam hi. Taciang a zingciang in Peter sia amate taw pai khawm a, Joppa ah suapui te in zong zui uh hi.
24 and on the next day they entered into Caesarea; and Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his relatives and near friends,
A zingciang in amate sia Caesarea ah tum uh hi. Taciang Cornelius in a mealheak te le a lawmte kaikhawm khol in ngak tek uh hi.
25 and as it came that Peter entered in, Cornelius having met him, having fallen at [his] feet, worshiped [him];
Peter a tum ciang in, Cornelius in muak a, a peang ah kun in bia hi.
26 and Peter raised him, saying, “Stand up; I am also a man myself”;
Ahihang Peter in ama kaito a, ding in; keima zong mihing ma khi hi, ci hi.
27 and talking with him he went in, and finds many having come together.
Peter in a paupui kawm in innsung ah tum uh ha, a pai tam mama mu hi.
28 And he said to them, “You know how it is unlawful for a man, a Jew, to keep company with, or to come to, one of another race, but God showed to me to call no man common or unclean;
Peter in amate tung ah, Judah mi khat mi namdang te taw ki thawl tu, a hibale, a kung ah pai tu sia ngeina om ngawl hi, ci na he tek uh hi; ahihang khatpo sia a nin, a hibale, a thiangtho ngawl, kici ngawl tu in Pathian in hong lak zo hi.
29 therefore also without contradicting I came, having been sent for; I ask, therefore, for what matter you sent for me?”
Tua ahikom note kung ah hong sawl pociang, nial ngawl in kongpai hi: tua ahikom bang deina atu in hong sam nu ziam? ci kong dong hi, ci hi.
30 And Cornelius said, “Four days ago until this hour, I was fasting, and [at] the ninth hour praying in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in radiant clothing,
Taciang Cornelius in, a bosa ni li lai in hi hun ciang dong an ka tang a; nitak nai thum ciang in ka innsung ah thungen khi hi, taciang, en in, puan pak sil mikhat ka mai ah hong ding a,
31 and he said, Cornelius, your prayer was heard, and your kind acts were remembered before God;
Cornelius awng, Pathian in na thungetna hong za zo hi, mizawng te na hu nate ciamte hi.
32 send, therefore, to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter; this one lodges in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea, who having come, will speak to you;
Tua ahikom Peter a kici Simon sia hiak ah sam tu in Joppa ah mi sawl in; ama sia tuihui ah savun vawtpa Simon inn ah tung hi: taciang hongpai ciang in ama in thu hong hil tu hi, ci hong son hi.
33 at once, therefore, I sent to you; you also did well, having come; now, therefore, we are all present before God to hear all things that have been commanded you by God.”
Tua ahikom tasia pociang in na kung ah mi hongpaisak khi hi; taciang nongpai man in pha hi. Tua ahikom tu in Pathian kung pan na thupiak theampo ngai tu in, ka vekpi in hi mun Pathian mai ah om khawm khu hi, ci hi.
34 And Peter having opened his mouth, said, “Of a truth, I perceive that God is not favoring by appearance,
Tua zawkciang in Peter in a kam hong a, Pathian sia mi doidan nei ngawl hi, a ci thuman sia ka he hi:
35 but in every nation he who is fearing Him, and is working righteousness, is acceptable to Him;
Ahihang Ama a zakta te le thutanna a vawt minam peuma sia Pathian in sang hi.
36 the word that He sent to the sons of Israel, proclaiming good news—peace through Jesus Christ (this One is Lord of all),
Na theampo i Topa: Jesus Christ tungtawn in a ki pualak kilemna thu sia Pathian in Israel te kung ah paisak hi:
37 you have known the word that came throughout all Judea, having begun from Galilee, after the immersion that John preached;
Tua thu ka sonna sia note in na he uh a, tuiphumna a man ciang in John in pualak hi, taciang Galilee pan kipan a, Judah ngamsung theampo ah tangko hi;
38 Jesus who [is] from Nazareth—how God anointed Him with the Holy Spirit and power; who went through, doing good, and healing all those oppressed by the Devil, because God was with Him;
Nazareth mi Jesus sia Pathian in Tha Thiangtho le vangletna taw sathau buak hi: napha vawt in pai a, doai i nencip te theampo damsak hi; banghangziam cile Ama sia Pathian in ompui hi.
39 and we are witnesses of all things that He did, both in the country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem—whom they slew, having hanged [Him] on a tree.
Kote sia Jerusalem pan kipan in Judah ngamsung ah a vawt theampo sung ah, a tetti te ka hi uh hi; amate in Jesus sia that uh a, thing tung ah khai uh hi:
40 This One God raised up [on] the third day, and gave Him to become visible,
Pathian in Ama sia ni thum ni ciang in thokiksak a, a kilang in lak hi;
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses, to those having been chosen before by God—to us who ate with [Him], and drank with Him, after His rising out of the dead;
Mi theampo tung ah hi ngawl in, Pathian mai ah tealsa tetti te, thina pan a thawkkik zawkciang in Ama taw a ne le a dawn khawm kote tung ah hong lak hi.
42 and He commanded us to preach to the people, and to fully testify that it is He who has been ordained judge of living and dead by God—
Taciang midang te tung ah phuang tu le Ama sia mihing le mithi te thukhen tu in Pathian in nasep a piak a hihi, ci tettipang tu in thu hong pia hi.
43 to this One do all the Prophets testify, that through His Name everyone that is believing in Him receives forgiveness of sins.”
Kamsang theampo in ama huvau son siat uh hi. Ama a umte theampo mihing sim in ama min vangletna taw a mawna uh ki maisak tu hi ci in son uh hi, ci hi.
44 While Peter is yet speaking these sayings, the Holy Spirit fell on all those hearing the word,
Peter in hi thu te a son laitak in Pathian thu a za te tung ah Tha Thiangtho hong theng hi.
45 and those of circumcision [who were] believing were astonished—as many as came with Peter—because the gift of the Holy Spirit has also been poured out on the nations,
Taciang Peter taw hongpai te theampo, vunteap tanna a um te in lamdangsa mama uh hi, banghangziam cile Gentile te tung ah zong Tha Thiangtho letsong buak hi.
46 for they were hearing them speaking with tongues and magnifying God.
Banghangziam cile amate in, kam tatuam in a pau uh za uh hi. Taciang Pathian pok uh hi. Tua zawkcang in Peter in zo kik a,
47 Then Peter answered, “Is anyone able to forbid the water, that these may not be immersed, who received the Holy Spirit—even as us also?”
Koma bangma in Tha Thiangtho a sang te tuiphumna sang ngawl tu in, khatpo in tui a khak thei tu ziam? ci hi.
48 He commanded them to also be immersed in the Name of the LORD; then they implored him to remain certain days.
Taciang Peter in Topa min taw tuiphumna sang tu in thupia hi. Tua zawkciang in amate in Peter kung ah ni tampi taam tu in ngen uh hi.
