Acts 22
1 “Men, brothers, and fathers, hear my defense now to you.”
«Ti eeshuwotsnat tnihotso! eshe and itsh tt'intsiru aani tdek'etuwo tiko k'ewere!»
2 and they having heard that he was speaking to them in the Hebrew dialect, they became even more silent, and he says,
Ibrayist'i noon keewu keewon b́ keewufere boshishtsok'on iki s'k etbowtsi, P'awloswere b́keewiru keewo b́ need'irawo hank'o bí eti.
3 “I, indeed, am a man, a Jew, having been born in Tarsus of Cilicia, and brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, having been taught according to the exactness of a law of the fathers, being zealous of God, as all you are today.
«Taa Kilk'iyitse daatseyiru T'erses kitotse shuwets ayhudiwi taane, tieenmó Iyerusalem Kitmanitsne. Taan danifonuwere Gemalyailiye b́teshi, nih nihwots nemono shengshdek'at danre, hambets it k'aliruwank'o Ik'osh ookorona tfinefoni.
4 And this Way I persecuted to death, binding and delivering up to prisons both men and women,
Krstni imneti shuuts sha'iryiru jamwotsi k'irosh borfetso t gishfoni, nungushuwotsnat máátsuwotsn tifde'er tipi moots bokindituwok'o twoshfoni.
5 as also the chief priest testifies to me, and all the eldership; from whom also having received letters to the brothers, to Damascus, I was going on, to bring also those there bound to Jerusalem that they might be punished,
Manuwere ar b́wottsok'o kahni naashonat eenashuwots taash gawitune. Eshe Demask'on fa'a ashaanotsi tifde'er Iyerusalem maants dewar boon Seziyosh taan falituwo Demask'on fa'a jirwotsoke guut'ets worek'ato tdek'iye boowokne.
6 and it came to pass, in my going on and coming near to Damascus, about noon, suddenly out of Heaven there shone a great light around me;
«Taa Demask'o maants amfetsat kituk tt'infere aawu taalon t gawuraniyere een shááno darotse t gúratse b́goli.
7 I also fell to the ground, and I heard a voice saying to me, Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?
Manoor dattsats dihi twutsi, ‹Sawulo! Sawulo! eegishe taan ngishiri?› etiru k'aaro tshshi.
8 And I answered, Who are You, Lord? And He said to me, I am Jesus the Nazarene whom you persecute—
Taawere ‹Doonzono! kone nee?› t eti, bíwere ‹Taahe nee ngishiruwo Nazrettso Iyesus taane› bí eti.
9 and they who are with me saw the light, and became afraid, and they did not hear the voice of Him who is speaking to me—
Taanton beyiru ashuwotswere shaanmani bobek'i bako taan b́keewiyor b́k'aaro shiyatsne.
10 and I said, What will I do, Lord? And the LORD said to me, Having risen, go on to Damascus, and there it will be told you concerning all things that have been appointed for you to do.
Taawere ‹Doonzono! eeg k'aluta!› t eti. Doonzonuwere ‹Tuur Demask'o maants amee, k'alo neen b́geyit keewu jamo manoke neesh keewetuwe› bí eti.
11 And when I did not see from the glory of that light, being led by the hand by those who are with me, I came to Damascus,
Shanman goltsatse tuutson bek'o tfalrawotse taanton teshts ashuwots tkisho detsdek't taan jishfere Demask'oyi bobetsi.
12 and a certain one, Ananias, a pious man according to the Law, being testified to by all the Jews dwelling [there],
«Manoke Hananiy eteef ash iko fa'e b́teshi, Demask'oyitse beyiru Ayhudi jamwotsoke udetso, Muse nemo kottsonat shayiri ashe b́teshi.
13 having come to me and stood by [me], said to me, Saul, brother, look up; and the same hour I looked up to him;
Bí waat t ganok need' dek't ‹Tieshu Sawulo! ni'aawo aani be'e!› taash bíeti, manorun tiaawo b́ bek'i, bínowere tbek'i.
14 and he said, The God of our fathers chose you beforehand to know His will, and to see the Righteous One, and to hear a voice out of His mouth,
Bíwere hank'o taash bíeti, ‹Nonihotsko Izar Izeweriye bíettso ndanetuwok'o kááwono be'er b́k'aronowere nshishetwok'o shin shino neen marat'ere,
15 because you will be His witness to all men of what you have seen and heard;
Man b́k'aluwere bín bek'aat nshishtsotse ash jami shinatse bísh gawu nwotishe.
16 and now, why do you linger? Having risen, immerse yourself, and wash away your sins, calling on the Name of the LORD.
Eshe and eebi nkotiri? tuur b́shútso s'eer gúpeyowe, nmorratsnowere mashowe.›
17 And it came to pass, when I returned to Jerusalem, and while I was praying in the temple, I came into a trance,
«Maniyerehakon Iyerusalem maants aanat Ik'i mootse Ik'o tk'onfere tgitsotse t'iwintson bek'o tbek'i.
18 and I saw Him saying to me, Hurry and go forth in haste out of Jerusalem, because they will not receive your testimony concerning Me;
Doonzonwere taash be'eyat ‹Nee t jangosh n imet gawo bode'awotse nja'arawo káári Iyerusalemitse kee› bí eti
19 and I said, LORD, they know that I was imprisoning and was scourging those believing on You in every synagogue;
Taawere hank'o tieti, ‹Doonzono! Ayhudi Ik' k'oni maa mootse neen amants jamwotsi t tiptsok'onat tjot'tsok'o bo botookon danfnee.
20 and when the blood of your witness Stephen was being poured forth, I was also standing by and assenting to his death, and keeping the garments of those putting him to death;
N gawu teshtso Ist'ifanos úd'ewor taawere ttookon úd'iruwots ganok need'dek'at bonton keewumanats shiyeyatniye tteshi, botaahono tekotfere b́teshi, ›
21 and He said to me, Go, because I will send you to far-off nations.”
Doonzonuwere ‹Wokooke fa'a Ik' ash Woteraw ashuwotsok neen twoshitwotse tuur amee!› bí eti.»
22 And they were hearing him to this word, and they lifted up their voice, saying, “Away from the earth with such a one; for it is not fit for him to live.”
Han b́ borfetsosh ash jamwots P'awlos keewiru keewo bok'ebfere boteshi, maniyre hakon bok'aaro eenshdek't, «Hank'o ashaan datsatse t'afuwe! hank'o ashaan kashon beyo bísh geyiratse!» ett bokuhi.
23 And they crying out and casting up their garments, and throwing dust into the air,
Bowere kuhefetst botaho shap'fetst shawono darots bobad'ri.
24 the chief captain commanded him to be brought into the stronghold, saying, “Let him be examined by scourges,” that he might know for what cause they were crying so against him.
Altsonuwere man b́bek'tsok'on P'awlosi kes' kes'fuwots galots bokindshituwok'o bíazazi, ash ashonwere eegosh hank'o bíats bokúhiruwok'o danosh jod'fetsr aatetuwok'o bíazazi.
25 And as he was stretching him with the straps, Paul said to the centurion who was standing by, “Is it lawful to you to scourge a man, a Roman, uncondemned?”
Ernmó shaak'on tifde'er jot'osh bok'anefere P'awlos b́ganoke need'iru bali naashosh «Rom dats ash iko tafiyalo njot'etuwok'o neesh faletuwá?» bí eti.
26 And the centurion having heard, having gone near to the chief captain, told, saying, “Take heed what you are about to do, for this man is a Roman”;
Bali naashonuwere han b́shishtsok'on alirwok amt «Eeg k'alishe? Ashaan Rom datsi ashe!» bí eti.
27 and the chief captain having come near, said to him, “Tell me, are you a Roman?” And he said, “Yes”;
Mansh alirwo P'awlos maants t'int «Ab taash keewwe, nee Rom datsatsi ashneneya?» bíeti, bíwere «Ee taane» bí eti.
28 and the chief captain answered, “I, with a great sum, obtained this citizenship”; but Paul said, “But I have even been born [so].”
Azazefonuwere «Rom dats ashok'o taaweyosh ay gize tkishi» bíet, P'awloswere «Taayere Rom dats asho woto tdaats shuweyonee» bí eti.
29 Immediately, therefore, they departed from him, those being about to examine him, and the chief captain was also afraid, having learned that he is a Roman, and because he had bound him,
Mansh bín aatosh k'andek't teshts ashuwots manoor bíyatse k'azbowoki, azazirwonuwere Rom dats asho habliyon b́tipo danb́k'rtsok'on shatb́wtsi.
30 and the next day, intending to know the certainty for what reason he is accused by the Jews, he loosed him from the bonds, and commanded the chief priests and all their Sanhedrin to come, and having brought down Paul, he set [him] before them.
Yaatsok'on azaziruwo, ayhudiwots P'awlosi bos'amitso arikon eegosh b́wottsok'o dano b́geyi, mansh kahni naashuwotsnat mooshiruwotsitsi jamwots bokakuweetuwok'o bí azazi, P'awlosnowere bits dek'amt boshinaats bí t'intsi.
