< Acts 16 >

1 He came also to Derbe and Lystra. And look, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who believed; but his father was a Greek.
Paul-na Derbe amadi Lystra-da chatlammi, mapham aduda Timothy kouba tung-inba ama leirammi. Mahakki mamadi thajabi Jihudi oirammi aduga mahakki mapana Greek-ni.
2 The brothers who were at Lystra and Iconium gave a good testimony about him.
Lystra amadi Iconium-da leiba thajabasingna mahakki maramda phajana hainarammi.
3 Paul wanted to have him go out with him, and he took and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts; for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
Paul-na Timothy-bu puduna chatpa pamlammi maram asina mahakpu un kaklammi maramdi maphamsing aduda leiba Jihudi pumnamakna mahakki mapa Greek-ni haiba khanglammi.
4 As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered the decrees to them to keep which had been ordained by the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem.
Adudagi makhoina sahar amadagi sahar amada chattuna Jerusalem-da Pakhonchatpasing amadi ahal lamansingna lepkhiba warepsing adu thajabasingda hairammi amadi madu ngaknaba makhoida hairammi.
5 So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and increased in number daily.
Maram aduna singlupsingna thajabada kankhatlammi amasung numit khudinggi masing hen-gatlammi.
6 When they had gone through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.
Asia-gi lamda Pao sandokpa Thawai Asengbana thingbagi maramna makhoina Phrygia amadi Galatia-gi lam phaoduna chatlammi.
7 When they had come opposite Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them.
Mysia-gi ngamkhei yourabada makhoina Bithynia-gi lamda changnaba hotnarammi adubu Jisugi Thawaina makhoibu maduda changba yaramde.
8 Passing by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
Maram aduna makhoina Mysia phaoraga Troas-ta chatlammi.
9 A vision appeared to Paul in the night. There was a man of Macedonia standing, begging him, and saying, "Come over into Macedonia and help us."
Aduga ahing aduda Macedonia-gi nupa amana leptuna mangonda “Macedonia-da lakpiduna eikhoibu pangbiyu” haina haijaba amagi uhanbiba ama Paul-na urammi.
10 When he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go out to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to proclaim the gospel to them.
Uhanbiba adu Paul-na ubaga, Macedonia-da khongsannaba eikhoi sem sarammi maramdi mapham adugi misingda Aphaba Pao sandoknaba Tengban Mapuna eikhoibu koubire haina eikhoina leplammi.
11 Then, setting sail from Troas, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and the day following to Neapolis;
Eikhoina hi tongduna Troas-tagi Samothrace-ta chatlammi aduga mathanggi numitta Neapolis-ta chatlammi.
12 and from there to Philippi, which is a principle city of that district of Macedonia, a colony. We were staying some days in this city.
Aduga mapham adudagi eikhoina Macedonia-gi athoiba sahar ama oiriba amasung Rome-na loi chanba Philippi saharda chatlammi. Mapham aduda eikhoi numit kayanimuk leirammi.
13 On the Sabbath day we went forth outside of the gate by a riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, and we sat down, and spoke to the women who had come together.
Potthaba numitta eikhoina sahar adugi thongjao mapanda thoklaga turel torban amada chatlammi, mapham aduda Jihudisingna pullaga haijanaba mapham ama leiramgani haina eikhoina khallammi. Aduga eikhoina phamtharabada tillamba nupising aduda wari saba hourammi.
14 A certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one who worshiped God, heard us; whose heart the Lord opened to listen to the things which were spoken by Paul.
Eikhoina haiba taribising adugi manungda Thyatira-dagi manggra machugi phi lalonbi Lydia koubi Tengban Mapubu ningjabi nupi ama yaorammi. Paul-na hairiba adu pukning changna tananaba mahakki thamoi Mapu Ibungona hangdokpirammi.
15 When she and her household were baptized, she urged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and stay." So she persuaded us.
Mahak amadi mahakki imung manunggi misingbu baptize touraba matungda mahakna eikhoida hairak-i, “Eibu Mapu Ibungobu thajabini haina nakhoina khanbirabadi eigi yumda lakpiduna leibiyu.” Asumna mahakna eikhoida kanna haijarammi.
16 It happened, as we were going to prayer, that a certain girl having a spirit of Python met us, who brought her masters much gain by fortune telling.
Nongma eikhoina haijanaba mapham aduda chatlingeida phattaba thawai changbi minai leisabi ama eikhoina thengnare. Mahakna laibao phaobagi mapanna mahakki mapusinggidamak sel yamna tanbirammi.
17 She followed Paul and us, shouting, "These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to you the way of salvation."
Leisabi asina Paul amadi eikhoigi itung illaga laorak-i, “Karamna kanbiba phanggani haina nakhoida laothokliba mising asi Wangthoiraba Tengban Mapu mahakki manaisingni.”
18 She was doing this for many days. But Paul, becoming greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, "I command you in the name of Jesus (the) Messiah to come out of her." And it came out at once.
Asumna mahakna numit kayamarum chattharammi. Akonbada Paul-na yamna nungaitaduna onsillaklaga thawai aduda hairak-i, “Jisu Christtagi mingda mangondagi thokkhinaba eina nangonda yathang piri!” Khudak aduda thawai adu nupi adudagi thokkhirammi.
19 But when her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they seized Paul and Silas, and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers.
Mahakki mapusing aduna makhoigi sel tanbagi khudongchaba adu mangkhre haiba khanglabada makhoina Paul amadi Silas-pu pharaga angambasinggi manak tanna keithel manungda chingduna puraklammi.
20 When they had brought them to the magistrates, they said, "These men, being Jews, are agitating our city,
Makhoina wayel mapusinggi mangda makhoibu puraklaga hairak-i, “Mising asi Jihudisingni makhoina eikhoigi sahar asi irang langhalle.
21 and set forth customs which it is not lawful for us to accept or to observe, being Romans."
Eikhoigi wayelda kaiba chatnabising makhoina tambi; eikhoi Rome-gi mi ama oina chatnabising adu louba nattraga ngakpa yade.”
22 The crowd rose up together against them, and the magistrates tore their clothes off of them, and commanded them to be beaten with rods.
Aduga miyam adusu yaona Paul amadi Silas-ki maiyokta houraklammi. Maduda wayel mapusing aduna makhoi anigi maphi segairaga phunaba yathang pirammi.
23 When they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely,
Makhoibu tamthina phuraba matungda keisumsangda thamjillammi aduga keisumsang panaba aduda makhoibu cheksinna ngak sennaba yathang pirammi.
24 who, having received such a command, threw them into the inner prison, and secured their feet in the stocks.
Yathang asi phanglabada keisumsang panaba aduna makhoibu keisumsanggi manung thangba ka aduda thamlammi aduga makhoigi makhong adu kurao hang challammi.
25 But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.
Ahing nongyai aduwaida Paul amadi Silas-na Tengban Mapuda haijarammi amadi thagat isei saklammi madu atei phadoksing aduna tarammi.
26 Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone's bonds were loosened.
Khanghoudana kanna yuhar haraktuna keisumsang adugi yumpham adu nikkhi. Khudakta keisumsang adugi thong pumnamak hangdoklammi aduga phadok pumnamakki yotlising adu nanthokkhi.
27 The jailer, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.
Keisumsang panaba aduna tumbadagi hougatlakkhi aduga keisumsanggi thongsing adu hangdokpa ubada phadoksing nanthokkhre haina mahakna khallammi. Maram aduna mahak masa mathanta sijanaba mahakna mahakki thangsang satlammi.
28 But Paul shouted loudly, saying, "Do not harm yourself, for we are all here."
Adubu Paul-na khonjel wangna laorak-i, “Nasa nathantabu manghanjaganu! Eikhoi pumnamak mapham asida leiri!”
29 He called for lights and sprang in, and, fell down trembling before Paul and Silas,
Keisumsang panaba aduna mei puraknaba kouraga mahakna chensillaklammi aduga kibana nikladuna Paul amadi Silas-ki mangda tutharammi.
30 and brought them out and said, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?"
Adudagi mahakna makhoibu mapanda puthoklaga hairak-i, “Ibungokhoi, kanbiba phangnaba ei kari toujaba tabage?”
31 They said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household."
Maduda makhoina khumlak-i, “Ibungo Jisubu thajou aduga nahak amadi nahakki imung manungna kanbiba phanggani.”
32 They spoke the word of the Lord to him, and to all who were in his house.
Adudagi makhoina Mapu Ibungogi wahei adu mahak amadi mahakki imungda leiminnaba pumnamakta sandoklammi.
33 He took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes, and was immediately baptized, he and all his household.
Ahing adugi pungpham adumaktada keisumsang panaba aduna makhoibu puraga makhoigi asok apansing adu chamthokpirammi aduga khudakta mahak amadi mahakki imunggi mi pumnamak baptize lourammi.
34 He brought them up into his house, and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly, with all his household, having believed in God.
Adudagi mahakna Paul amadi Silas-pu mahakki yumda pusillaga makhoida chana thaknaba pirammi. Tengban Mapubu thajabagi maramna mahak amadi mahakki imung manung pumnamak haraobana thallammi.
35 But when it was day, the magistrates sent the sergeants, saying, "Let those men go."
Nongngallaklabada wayel mapusing aduna phamnaibasing tharaktuna keisumsang panaba aduda yathang piduna hairak-i. “Mising adu thadokkhro.”
36 The jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, "The magistrates have sent to let you go; now therefore come out, and go in peace."
Maram aduna keisumsang panaba aduna Paul-da hairk-i, “Wayel mapusing aduna nahak amadi Silas-pu thadoknaba yathang pirakle. Houjikti chatpikhiba yarani, ingthana lengbiro.”
37 But Paul said to them, "They have beaten us publicly, without a trial, men who are Romans, and have cast us into prison. Do they now release us secretly? No indeed. Let them come themselves and bring us out."
Adubu phamnaibasing aduda Paul-na hairak-i, “Wayen toudana Rome-gi mi oiba eikhoibu miyam mamangda phuraga keisumsangda thamjinbire aduga houjikna makhoina eikhoibu lonna thadokpa pamlibra? Madu khak yaroi! Makhoi masamak mapham asida laktuna eikhoibu thindoksanu.”
38 The sergeants reported these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Romans,
Phamnaibasing aduna waphamsing asi wayel mapusing aduda tamlure maduda makhoina Paul amadi Silas asi Rome-gi mini haiba tabada makhoi yamna kirammi.
39 and they came and apologized to them. When they had brought them out, they asked them to depart from the city.
Maram aduna makhoina chattuna makhoida nonjarammi aduga makhoina keisumsangdagi makhoibu puthokle aduga sahar adu thadoktuna chatpikhinaba haijarammi.
40 They went out of the prison, and entered into Lydia's house. When they had seen the brothers, they encouraged them, and departed.
Paul amadi Silas-na keisumsang adudagi thoraklaga Lydia-gi yumda chatlammi. Mapham aduda thajabasing unaraga makhoida pukning thougatpa wasing haibiramlaga chatkhirammi.
