< Acts 19 >

1 It happened that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having passed through the upper country, came to Ephesus, and found certain talmidim.
A ni ansau Apolus mi Korint, Paulus kotin kakan sili sap en pali poa kan, ap lele dong Episus wasa a diarada tounpadak kai.
2 He said to them, "Did you receive the Ruach ha-Kodesh when you believed?" They said to him, "No, we have not even heard that there is a Ruach ha-Kodesh."
A kotin masani ong irail: Komail aleer Ngen saraui ni omail posonlar? Irail potoan ong i: Se sota man rong, me Ngen saraui mia.
3 He said, "Into what then were you immersed?" They said, "Into John's immersion."
A ap kotin masani: A is, me komail paptais ong? Irail inda: Ong paptais en Ioanes.
4 Paul said, "John indeed immersed with the immersion of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe in the one who would come after him, that is, in Yeshua."
Paulus masani: Ioanes paptais ki paptais en kalula, ni a masani ong aramas akan, me ren poson i me pan pwarado mur i, i Iesus.
5 When they heard this, they were immersed in the name of the Lord Yeshua.
Irail lao rongadar met, re ap paptais ong mar en Kaun Iesus.
6 When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Ruach ha-Kodesh came on them, and they spoke with other tongues and prophesied.
Paulus lao kotin pwil po’rail lim a kan, Ngen saraui ap kotidi po’rail, irail ari lokaia ngil toror pasang o deideikop.
7 They were about twelve men in all.
A ir ol oko me ekriamen.
8 He entered into the synagogue, and spoke boldly for a period of three months, reasoning and persuading about the things concerning the Kingdom of God.
I ari kotin purepure nan sinakoke o aima padapadak saunipong silu, kapakaparok o kawewedar meakan duen wein Kot.
9 But when some were hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the crowd, he departed from them, and separated the talmidim, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.
A akai lao kapitakailar, o so poson, o lokelokaia sued ong aramas akan duen lamalam, a ap saupei sang irail o katorela tounpadak kan, o padapadaki ong irail nan im en padak en Tiranus
10 This continued for two years, so that all those who lived in Asia heard the word of the Lord Yeshua, both Jews and Greeks.
Mepukat wiauier saunpar riau; toun Asien karos ari rongada masan en Kaun o, men Sus o men Krik karos.
11 God worked special miracles by the hands of Paul,
O Kot me kotin wia kida lim en Paulus manaman kapuriamui akan.
12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and the evil spirits went out.
Re pil aleer lim en pudo o likau moa sang pali war a, pwilikidi ong me somau kan, somau o ap sare sang, o ngen sued akan keredi sang.
13 But some of the itinerant Jews, exorcists, took on themselves to invoke over those who had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Yeshua, saying, "I adjure you by Yeshua whom Paul preaches."
Men Sus widingok kai, me kin koko sili kati ani, ap song sakaraki dong irail, me tanwar en ngen sued kai, mar en Kaun Iesus, indada: Kit kaukilang komail Iesus, me Paulus kin padapadak due.
14 There were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jewish cohen hagadol, who did this.
A ol isimen mia nain samaro lapalap Skepas, ol en Sus amen, me wiadar mepukat.
15 The evil spirit answered, "Yeshua I know, and Paul I know, but who are you?"
A ngen sued sapeng irail indada: I asa Iesus, o i asa duen Paulus, a komail, is komail?
16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was, having leapt on them, having overpowered them all, prevailed against them so that they fled from that house naked and wounded.
A aramas o, me ngen sued mi poa, ap luse dong irail o kaloe irail edi. Ir ari tanga sang nan im o kiliso o kili olar.
17 This became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who lived at Ephesus. Fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Yeshua was magnified.
A met lok sili ren men Sus o Krik akan, me kauson Episus. O masak kipa irail edi, o mar en Kaun Iesus me lomuinlar kaualap.
18 Many also of those who had believed came, confessing, and declaring their deeds.
O me iang posonlar me toto kodo weokadar o kasaledar arail wiawia kan.
19 Many of those who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. They counted the price of them, and found it to be fifty thousand pieces of silver.
O pil me toto, me kati ani, wa pena nairail puk o isik ir ada mon karos; ir ari wadok pwain ar o diar, me a dok ong moni limenen.
20 So the word of the Lord was growing and becoming mighty.
Masan en Kaun ari pwaidar kaualap.
21 Now after these things had ended, Paul determined in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."
Murin mepukat Paulus ap kotin inong iong ni ngen e kakan sili wein Masetonien o Akaia, ap kotilang Ierusalem masanidar: I lao milar wasa o, i pil pan kilang Rom.
22 Having sent into Macedonia two of those who served him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.
I ari kadarala Masetonien riamen, kisan me papa i: Timoteus o Erastus. A pein i kotikoteta mas nan Asien.
23 About that time there arose no small stir concerning the Way.
I ansau me moromorong laud wiauier pweki lamalam.
24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Artemis, brought no little business to the craftsmen,
Pwe amen, me ad a Demetrius, saunmata amen, me kin wiada im en kaudok silper kan ong Diana, me kare ong irail, me kin wiawiada, moni toto.
25 whom he gathered together, with the workmen of like occupation, and said, "Sirs, you know that by this business we have our wealth.
I ap kapokon irail pena o toun dodok en song ota indada: Maing ko, komail asa, me dodok wet meid kadepa ong kitail, pwe i me kitail kapwapwaki.
26 You see and hear, that not at Ephesus alone, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are no gods, that are made with hands.
A komail kilekilang o rongerong, me Paulus men et kin kaloedi o kawukila aramas toto a kaidin nan Episus eta, pwe pil koren iong nan Asien pon, ni a kin padaki ong aramas akan, me dene kaidin irail kot akan, me wiaui pan pa en aramas akan.
27 Not only is there danger that this our trade come into disrepute; but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be counted as nothing, and that she should even be deposed from her magnificence, whom all Asia and the world worships."
Mepukat meid apwal ong kitail. Pwe kaidin atail dodok eta me pan kamala, pwe pil im kaudok en kot Diana lapalap o a lingan, me toun Asien o sappa karos kin kaudoki ong pan sorela.
28 When they heard this they were filled with anger, and began to shout, saying, "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians."
Irail lao ronger mepukat, re ap makara kida kaualap o weriweradar indada: Meid lapalap Diana en men Episus!
29 The city was filled with confusion, and they rushed with one accord into the theater, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, Paul's companions in travel.
A karos toun kanim o ap pingidar, wiaki eu, tangalang im en madong, tangaki Kaios o Aristarkus men Masetonien, me waroki ong Paulus oko.
30 When Paul wanted to enter in to the people, the talmidim did not allow him.
A Paulus lao pan kotilong nan pokon o, tounpadak kan ap sota mueid ong i.
31 And also some of the Asiarchs, who were his friends, sent to him and urged him not to venture into the theater.
O saumas en Asien kai, me kompokepa kan, ilake dong i, panaui i, ender kotilang im en madong o.
32 Some therefore shouted one thing, and some another, for the assembly was in confusion. Most of them did not know why they had come together.
Ari, akai wia eu song en lokaia, a akai eu, pwe pokon o pingidar. A me toto re’rail sasa karep en ar pokon pena.
33 They brought Alexander out of the crowd, the Jews putting him forward. Alexander beckoned with his hand, and would have made a defense to the people.
Irail sikon sang nan pokon o Aleksander; Sus oko me sikonla i. A Aleksander olol ong irail, ap men sapeng pokon o.
34 But when they perceived that he was a Jew, all with one voice for a time of about two hours shouted, "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians."
Irail lao asa, me i kisan Sus oko, re ap wiaki eu weriwerada auer riau: Meid lapalap Diana en men Episus!
35 When the town clerk had quieted the crowd, he said, "You men of Ephesus, is there anyone who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple keeper of the great Artemis, and of the image which fell down from Zeus?
A sauninting en kanim o lao kadukiedi pokon o, ap indada: Komail ol oko en Episus, is aramas, me sasa, me kanim en men Episus kin kaukaudoki ong Diana lapalap o dikedik, me pupedi sang nanlang?
36 Seeing then that these things cannot be denied, you ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rash.
A ma sota, me pan kak kalikame mepukat, komail en nenenla o der wiada me sapung!
37 For you have brought these men here, who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of our goddess.
Pwe komail ukedo ol pukat, me sota kin kuliada im en kaudok o, pil sota lalaue omail kot li.
38 If therefore Demetrius and the craftsmen who are with him have a matter against anyone, the courts are open, and there are proconsuls. Let them press charges against one another.
A ma Demetrius o iang a kan mauki meakot ren amen, kapung ap pan wiaui, pwe saunkapung kai mia, ren kapukapung re’rail.
39 But if you seek anything further, it will be settled in the regular assembly.
A ma komail mauki eu song toror, i me pan kapungala nan kapung o.
40 For indeed we are in danger of being accused concerning this day's riot, there being no cause. Concerning it, we would not be able to give an account of this commotion."
Pwe kitail pan pukoki morong en ran wet, pwe sota karepen, me kitail en kapungki pokon wet ar tangatang pena.
41 When he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
A lao masani ong irail mepukat, ap kadar pasang pokon o.
