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”;
Mararah mina loong ah Judia nawa Entiok ni wang rum haano hanpiite loong asuh phang nyootsoot rumta, “Moses Hootthe jun ih khoopkhan banlam lahoon kanbah sen ih khopiiroidong ah tachoh kan.”
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;
Erah jengkhaap ah thoidi Pool nyia Barnabaas ah neng damdi rapne ih daanmui nyuuta, erah raangtaan Entiok nawa wasiitnyi Pool nyia Barnabaas damdoh Jerusalem nah wakkah ano kamwah nyia mihak phokhoh loong asuh erah tiit ah chengkaat theng ngeh ih roongwaan rumta.
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.
Erah thoidi neng loong ah chaaste ih wangthuk rumta; eno Phoenesia nyia Samaria lam ih kah rum adi, Ranglajatte loong ah Rangte mendi mamah lek rumta tiit ah banbaat rumta; erah chaat rum ano hanpiite loong ah rapne ih roon rumta.
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;
Jerusalem ni thokrum kano, kamwah loong, chaas nawa te nyia mihak phokhoh loong ih rapniine ih bantho rumta, neng suh Rangte ih mamah ih maak rumta erah tiit ah baat ih rumta.
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.”
Enoothong mararah hanpiite Pharisis nawa angta loong ah toonchap rum ano jeng rumta, “Ranglajatte loong ah ih khoopkhan banlam ah hoon jaatjaat etheng eno Moses Hootthe kap ah baat etheng.”
6 And there were gathered together the apostles and the elders, to see about this matter,
Kamwah nyia mihak phokhoh loong ah erah tiit ah phanwaan suh lomtong rumta.
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;
Rekam daanmui rum ah lilih Pitar ah toonchap ano jengta, “Phoh ano loong, sen ih jat ehan, ngah jaakhoh di Rangte ih Ranglajatte suh Ruurang Ese tiit baat suh danje tahang, timnge liidi neng ih erah japchaat ano toom hanpi rum ah ngeh ah.
8 and the heart-knowing God bore them testimony, having given to them the Holy Spirit, even as also to us,
Eno mirep thung atak jatte Rangte ih, seng suh kohali ah likhiik Esa Chiiala ah koh rum ano heh ih Ranglajatte loong ah uh kap etheng ngeh ih noisok ha.
9 and also put no difference between us and them, having purified their hearts by faith;
Rangte ih seng loong asuh phoosiit siit li hali; neng loong ah ih hanpi ih kano neng rangdah uh biin anaan eha.
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?
Emah ang abah, sengte sengwah ih lajen huika nyia seng ih lajen huike huijih ah neng tam ni toonhui thuk eno, Rangte ah tiim esuh thaak phate hi?
11 But through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, we believe to be saved, even as also they.”
Emah tah angka! Teesu Jisu minchan ih seng puipang ih tahe ah likhiik neng uh hanpi ih rum kano puipang ih rumha.”
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;
Pool nyia Barnabaas ah Rangte ih Ranglajatte damdi mih paatjaajih mamah ih re thuk nyuuta, erah baatnyu kano mih loong ah tikpakpak ih tong rumta.
13 and after they were silent, James answered, saying, “Men, brothers, listen to me:
Pool nyia Barnabaas ah thoonjeng nyu kano, Jeems we jengta: “Nga phono loong chaat thaak he!
14 Simeon expounded how at first God looked on [us] to take a people out of [the] nations for His Name,
Jaakhoh di Rangte ih Ranglajatte dung dowa heh mih raangtaan ih poon ano neng mamah ih riikoi sokboita erah ah Simoon ih baat ih tahan.
15 and to this the words of the Prophets agree, as it has been written:
Khowah loong ih baatta jengkhaap ah pun ela, Rangteele ni liiha,
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—
‘Teesu jengta, arah lidoh Ngah ngaak hangno, Dewid hasong ah ngaak seesiit ih raahang. Thet eta ah rongtangtang ih we seesiit angno ese we angthuk ang.
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.
Eno loongtang mina nga taangnah thok ha, Ranglajatte loongtang nga noksong raangtaan ih poonhang loong ra ah.
Arah jengkhaap ah Teesu ih, ehakdi dook jatthukta.’ (aiōn g165)
19 For this reason I judge: not to trouble those who turn back to God from the nations,
“Nga thung ni bah amah,” ngeh ih li ano Jeems ah jangjeng kata, “Marah Rangte reeni thok hala Ranglajatte loong ah seng ih laphaang phaktheng.
20 but to write to them to abstain from the defilements of the idols, and the whoredom, and the strangled thing, and the blood;
Erah nang ebah, khojoop phaksat nyia esot loong ah laphaksat theng ngeh ih le thong raangmaat ih; adoleh mih damdoh roomjup roomtong lah ang theng, khoisat luiamaan nyia hesipan laphak theng ngeh ah.
21 for Moses has those preaching him from former generations in every city—being read every Sabbath in the synagogues.”
Tiimnge liidi, Moses Hootthe ah Jehudi rangsoomnok ni naangtongsa rookwet jaakhoh dowa ih weh koha, enooleh noongrep ni samnuh ko ih tumbaat rumha.”
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—
Eno kaamwah loong nyia chaas phokhoh loongtang roongwaan rum ano, neng dung dowa mina danje rumta eno Pool nyia Barnabaas damdi Entiok ni wakkaat thuk rumta. Hanpiite loong ih rapne ih choomjoh arah mina wanyi danje rumta, Judas Barsabbas ngeh ih men rumta nyia Silas ah;
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;
eno neng ih arah le ah raangmaat rumta: “Senphoh senno seng loong ah, kaamwah nyia mihak phokhoh loong ah ih, Entiok, Sairia nyia Silisika dowa Ranglajatte phoh ano loong suh jengkhaapse ra hi.
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,
Sengdung nawa ra taha loong ah ih sen loong ah neng jengkhaap nawa ih phaangphak ra halan ngeh ih chaat ehi; neng suh, seng ih, renbaat muh.
25 it seemed good to us, having come together with one accord, to send to you chosen men, with our beloved Barnabas and Paul—
Eno khoontong eno kongphaak kotte sen reenah kaat thuk suh kheemui li. Seng moongnook joonte Barnabaas nyia Pool damdoh wakra rumha,
26 men who have given up their lives for the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ—
neng loong ah ih Teesu Jisu Kristo raangtaan ih ba seng roidong ah mamah ang abah uh toomang ah ngeh ih jaan jen chaang rumha.
27 we have sent, therefore, Judas and Silas, and they are telling the same things by word.
Erah raangtaan ih Judas nyia Silas kaat thuk hali, seng ih tiimjih raang hi nengnyi tui ih uh erah ah baat ehan.
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay no more burden on you, except these necessary things:
Arah banlam tiit khotok doh sen laphaangphak theng ngeh ih Esa Chiiala nyia seng loong ah ih tiit thiin hi:
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!”
Khojoop phaksat laphaksat theng; hesih laphak theng; khoisat luiamaan laphak theng; eno mih damdoh roomjup roomtong laje theng. Ethih ekhah lare kanbah senmoot senkaat jirep ah ese ang ah. Eno sen suh jengseera hi.”
30 They then, indeed, having been let go, went to Antioch, and having brought the multitude together, delivered the letter,
Kongphaak kotte ah Entiok ni wang thuk rumta, eno miloong thutpoon rum ano hanpiite loong asuh le ah chokoh ih rumta.
31 and having read [it] they rejoiced for the consolation;
Mina loong ah ih le ah weh rum ano, chaankot jengkhaap asuh rapne ih roon rumta.
32 Judas also and Silas, also being prophets themselves, through much discourse exhorted the brothers, and confirmed,
Judas nyia Silas, nengnyi uh khowah angta, nengnyi miloong ah damdi rekamdook ih chaankot jengkhaap jeng koh nyuuta.
33 and having passed some time, they were let go with peace from the brothers to the apostles;
Erah ni cheesah tongnyu adi, miloong ah ih romseetam jengkhaap ah jeng koh rum ano o ih kaat thuk nyuuta erah loong ah reeni ngaak wang thuk rumta.
34 [[and it seemed good to Silas to remain there still.]]
Enoothong Silas ah erah ni tangtong suh liita.
35 And Paul and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and proclaiming good news—with many others also—the word of the LORD;
Pool nyia Barnabaas Entiok ni cheesah tongthiin nyuuta, nengnyi damdi wahoh loong ah nep ih Rangte Jengkhaap nyootsoot thiin rumta.
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.”
Rekam tongnyu ano Pool ih Barnabaas suh liita; “Sek ih Teesu tiit nyootsootti tih hanpiite loong ah samnuh harep nah ngaak kah tiino sokkah thaak tih mamah ih tongtha rumla.”
37 And Barnabas resolved to take with [them] John called Mark,
Eno Barnabaas ih Joon Maak ah nengnyi damdi waksiit thung,
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;
Pool langkoleh heh waksiit ah tapunka ngeh ih thunta, timnge liidoh, Joon Maak ah nengnyi damdi thoon moot kaatmuh, heh Pamphilia nawa ngaak soonta.
39 there came, therefore, a sharp contention, so that they were parted from one another, and Barnabas having taken Mark, sailed to Cyprus,
Nengnyi rapne daanmui nyu ano pheesoon nyuuta: Barnabaas ah Maak ah siit ano Sipras ko juulam ih daansoonta,
40 and Paul having chosen Silas, went forth, having been given up to the grace of God by the brothers;
Pool ih Silas ah siit ano kata, hanpiite loong ah ih nengnyi ah phoongpha rum ano Teesu lak ni look haatkoh rumta.
41 and he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the assemblies.
Pool ah Siria nyia Silisia lam ih kah ano chaas rookweh ni chaan tum kota.
