Acts 15
1 And certain having come down from Judea, were teaching the brothers, “If you are not circumcised after the custom of Moses, you are not able to be saved”;
Bi nitianba yaaba n den ñani Jude ki cua Sili ya Antiosa den bangi ti kpiiba ki tua: Yi yaa kua ku koanciagu nani Musa n bili maama yi kan tindi.
2 there having been, therefore, not a little dissension and debate to Paul and Barnabas with them, they arranged for Paul and Barnabas, and certain others of them, to go up to the apostles and elders to Jerusalem about this question;
Polo leni Banabasa den yie bipo ki waagi ki nia leni ba leni u paalu. Lani yaapo li kani yaaba den jagi ki bili ke Polo leni Banabasa leni bi siiga bi tianba baa gedini laa maama Jelusama Jesu tondiba leni li kani nikpeliba po.
3 they indeed, then, having been sent forward by the assembly, were passing through Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the nations, and they were causing great joy to all the brothers.
Kilisiti n yini yaaba Antiosa po den todi ba li sancenli po. Bi den poandi Fenisi leni Samali diema kuli ki togidi bi nilanba n den lebidi ki daani maama ki teni ke lanpo bi kpiiba kuli pala mangi hali boncianla laa maama po.
4 And having come to Jerusalem, they were received by the assembly, and the apostles, and the elders; they also declared as many things as God did with them;
Ban den pundi Jelusalema, Kilisiti n yini yaaba, bi tondiba leni bi nikpeliba den biali ba. Bi den togidi U Tienu n tuuni leni ba ki tiendi yaala kuli.
5 and there rose up certain of those of the sect of the Pharisees who believed, saying, “It is required to circumcise them, to command them also to keep the Law of Moses.”
Li sua ke Falisieninba cagili siiga, bi tianba yaaba n den daani den fii ki yedi ke li tie tiladi bi nilanba n kua ku koanciagu ki go waani ba ban kubi Musa balimaama.
6 And there were gathered together the apostles and the elders, to see about this matter,
Jesu tondiba leni bi nikpeliba den taani ki baa juogi laa maama po.
7 and there having been much disputing, Peter having risen up said to them, “Men, brothers, you know that from former days God made choice among us, through my mouth, for the nations to hear the word of the good news, and to believe;
Ban den juogi juogi ŋali boncianla Pieli den fii ki yedi ba: N kpiiba yibani ke li waagi leni U Tienu n den gandi nni yi siiga, ke min yaa wangi bi nilanba o laabaaliŋamo maama, ke ban tuo ki daani.
8 and the heart-knowing God bore them testimony, having given to them the Holy Spirit, even as also to us,
U Tienu yua n bani bi niba pala kuli den tieni bi po seedi wan den puni ba U Tienu Fuoma Yua nani wan den puni ti moko maama.
9 and also put no difference between us and them, having purified their hearts by faith;
Waa den tieni gagidima ba kuli tinba leni bani siiga kelima o den ŋuudi ki ŋanbi bani moko yaa pala kelima ban den daani yeni po.
10 now, therefore, why do you tempt God, to put a yoke on the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
Lanwani be yaa po ke yi moadi ki baa biigi U Tienu, ki bua ki tuni bi ŋoadikaaba ya tugili ke tinba leni ti yaajanba kuli n kaa fidi ki tugi yaali.
11 But through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, we believe to be saved, even as also they.”
Ama ti daani ke ti tindi kelima ti Diedo Jesu kilisiti ŋanbili po nani bani moko yeni.
12 And all the multitude kept silence and were listening to Barnabas and Paul expounding as many signs and wonders as God did among the nations through them;
Li nitaanli yeni kuli den ŋmini suo ki cengi Banabasa leni Polo n bi togidi U Tienu n den teni ke bi tieni ya bancianma leni ya bonlidinkaala bi nilanba siiga.
13 and after they were silent, James answered, saying, “Men, brothers, listen to me:
Ban den maadi ki gbeni, Jaka den yedi:
14 Simeon expounded how at first God looked on [us] to take a people out of [the] nations for His Name,
N kpiiba, cengi mani nni. Simono togidi U Tienu n den kpa noanli ki laa bi nilanba po maama, ki gandi bi siiga ya niba n baa tie o nibuolu.
15 and to this the words of the Prophets agree, as it has been written:
Laa maama taa leni bi sawalipuaba maama nani lan diani i diani nni maama ki yedi:
16 After these things I will return, And I will rebuild the dwelling place of David that has fallen down, And I will rebuild its ruins, And will set it upright—
Lani yaa pendi n baa goa cua ki go sieni Dafidi diegu yaagu n baa. N baa fiini ku diegbebuona, ki go maa ki sieni gu.
17 That the remnant of men may seek after the LORD, And all the nations on whom My Name has been called, Says the LORD, who is doing all these things.
lanwani yaa nisaali n sieni kuli baa lingi o Diedo, bani min yini yaaba ke ban tua n niba yeni.
O Diedo, yua n tiendi wan jagi yaala, ŋali yogu yeni n yedi yeni. (aiōn g165)
19 For this reason I judge: not to trouble those who turn back to God from the nations,
Jaka den pugini ki yedi: Lani tin sua yaala tie ke tin da bili bi nilanba po yaala n pa, bani yaaba n lebidi ki ŋoadi U Tienu yeni.
20 but to write to them to abstain from the defilements of the idols, and the whoredom, and the strangled thing, and the blood;
Ama tin diani ki waani ba ke ban kubi bi yula, ki da biidi bi yula ki je i buli padijiema kuli, ki go kubi bi yula leni mi conconma buoli, ki da ŋmani ti yansoadikaadi ki da ŋmani mi soama.
21 for Moses has those preaching him from former generations in every city—being read every Sabbath in the synagogues.”
Kelima ki cili ŋali yogu li den pia dogu nni kuli yaaba n wangi Musa balimaama, kelima bi den cogi ma mi fuodima daali kuli li balimaama bangima diena nni.
22 Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole assembly, to send to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas chosen men out of themselves—Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, leading men among the brothers—
Lane Jesu tondiba leni bi nikpeliba leni kilisiti n yini yaaba kuli den sua ke li pundi ban gandi bi siiga bi nitianba, ki soani ba ban yegi leni Polo leni Banabasa ki gedi Antiosa. Bi den gandi Jude ke bi yi o Basabasa, leni Silasa bani bi kpiiba n den jigindi yaaba.
23 having written through their hand thus: “The apostles, and the elders, and the brothers, to those in Antioch, and Syria, and Cilicia, brothers, who [are] of the nations, greeting;
Bi den soani ba leni li tili ke li yedi: Tinba, yi kpiiba, Jesu tondiba leni bi nikpeliba, ti fuondi yinba yaaba n tie nilanba ki tie kpiiba ki ye Antiosa, Sili, leni Silisi yaa diema nni kuli.
24 seeing we have heard that some having gone forth from us troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying to be circumcised and to keep the Law, to whom we gave no charge,
Ti gbadi ke ti siiga yaaba bi tianba den gedi yipo, ti ki den teni yaaba ñoabonli ba kuli, ke bi ban maadi ya maama n yagi yi yama ki jieni yi.
25 it seemed good to us, having come together with one accord, to send to you chosen men, with our beloved Barnabas and Paul—
Li tie lani yaapo ke ti kuli taani yanyenma ki sua ke li ŋani tin gandi bi niba ki soani ba ban yegi leni ti buakaaba Banabasa leni Polo,
26 men who have given up their lives for the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ—
yaaba n den luni bi miana ti Diedo Jesu Kilisiti yaa yeli po.
27 we have sent, therefore, Judas and Silas, and they are telling the same things by word.
Lani yaa po ti soani yi kani Jude leni Silasa ke ban yaadi ki maadi leni yi tin diani yaala li naa tili nni.
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay no more burden on you, except these necessary things:
U Tienu Fuoma Yua leni tinba kuli taa yanyenma ki sua ke li ŋani tin da tuni yi tugitoali kali yaali n tie tie tiladi na.
29 to abstain from things offered to idols, and blood, and a strangled thing, and whoredom; keeping yourselves from which, you will do well; be strong!”
Lani n tie yin kubi yi yula ki da je i buli padijiema ki da go ŋmani mi soama, ki da ŋmani ti yansoadikaadi, ki go kubi yi yula ki da conbi conconbuoluba kuli. Li baa ŋani yipo yin yaa kubi yi yula ki da tieni lankuli. U Tienu n waani ti tiyaba!
30 They then, indeed, having been let go, went to Antioch, and having brought the multitude together, delivered the letter,
Lani Kilisiti n yini yaaba den cabi bi tondiba yeni ke bi guani Antiosa. Bi den teni li tili yaa nilugu n den taani yeni.
31 and having read [it] they rejoiced for the consolation;
Bi den cogi li ke li mangi ba ki go paagi bi pala.
32 Judas also and Silas, also being prophets themselves, through much discourse exhorted the brothers, and confirmed,
Jude leni Silasa, yaaba n tie bani biba sawalipuaba, den tundi bi kpiiba ki paagi bi pala ke ban yaa se ke li pa li dandanli nni.
33 and having passed some time, they were let go with peace from the brothers to the apostles;
Ban den tieni li kani danaba, bi kpiiba den cabi ba leni mi yanduanma ke ban lebidi ki guani yaaba n den soani ba po.
34 [[and it seemed good to Silas to remain there still.]]
Ama Silasa den sua ke li ŋani wan go sedi li kani waamu.
35 And Paul and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and proclaiming good news—with many others also—the word of the LORD;
Polo leni Banabasa den waagi Antiosa, bani leni nitoaba boncianla ki bangi ki go wangi o Diedo maama.
36 and after certain days, Paul said to Barnabas, “Having turned back again, we may look after our brothers, in every city in which we have preached the word of the LORD—how they are.”
Danaba n den pendi, Polo den yedi Banabasa: Tin guani tin den wangi o Diedo laabaaliŋamo yaa dogi nni kuli, ki ban le lan tie ti kpiiba po maama.
37 And Barnabas resolved to take with [them] John called Mark,
Banabasa den bua ki ta Jan ban yi yua Maka wan yegi leni ba.
38 and Paul was not thinking it good to take him with them who withdrew from them from Pamphylia, and did not go with them to the work;
Ama Polo den sua ke laa pundi ban go taa yua n den paadi leni ba Panfila diema nni kaa go ciani ba bi tuonli nni.
39 there came, therefore, a sharp contention, so that they were parted from one another, and Barnabas having taken Mark, sailed to Cyprus,
Mi niama den tieni bi siiga ŋali ke bi paadi leni bi yaba. Banabasa den ta Maka ke bi duodi ki kua ku ñinbiagu ki duodi ki gedi Sipila kpendegili po.
40 and Paul having chosen Silas, went forth, having been given up to the grace of God by the brothers;
Polo den gandi Silasa wan yegi leni o. Bi kpiiba den mia o Diedo wan yaa ŋanbidi bi po, ke o fii ki gedi lipo.
41 and he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the assemblies.
O den goagoadi Sili diema nni leni Silisi yaa diema nni kuli ki pugindi Kilisiti nitaanli li papaali.
