Acts 8
1 And Saul was consenting to his death. And there arose on that day a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and all were scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.
Stephen tek haat thukte ah Sool angta. Erah sa adi Jerusalem hah ni kristaan loong ah rapne ih siiwi rumta. Samaria nyia Judia hah noongrep ni Kristaan loong ah tiisoon rumta, Heliphante loong ah ba soon muh.
2 And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him.
Rangte jatte mina loong ah ih Stephen mang ah rongrongwah ih hu ari damdi bengkaat rumta.
3 But Saul ravaged the church, entering house after house, and dragging both men and women, committed them to prison.
Sool ih chaas jeeje ah thet haat taat chungta; nokrookwet ni tumkhoom ano, minuh miwah Jisu suh hanpiite loong ah thoontang dok hoom kaat ano phaatak ni sakkaat rumta.
4 Now those that had been scattered abroad went through the country preaching the word.
Noongrep ni tiisoonta hanpiite loong ah ih Rangte tiit ah tumbaat rumta.
5 And Philip went down to a city of Samaria, and preached to them the Christ.
Samaria hah ko samnuthung longthoon ni tongte miloong asuh Philip ih Kristo tiit ah baat kaatta.
6 And the multitudes with one accord gave heed to the things spoken by Philip, when they heard and saw the signs which he wrought.
Philip ih baat rumta tiitkhaap ah mih lomkhoonta loong ah ih rapniine ih thaangchaat rumta, heh jeng boichaat rum adi Philip ih paatjaajih loong ah reeraang nyia noisok rumta.
7 For from many that had unclean spirits came they out crying with a loud voice; and many that were palsied, and that were lame, were cured.
Chiithih laakhah ah mina loong sak nawa riihu leh doksoon eta, erah damdi huimu nyia ekoong loong ah de ih rumta.
8 And there was great joy in that city.
Erah thoidi erah hadaang adi rapne tenroon woksoon ih tong rumta.
9 But before their arrival a certain man, named Simon, was in the city, a man practising sorcery, and amazing the people of Samaria, saying that he himself was some great person;
Erah samnuh hah adi Simoon ngeh ih mih wasiit angta, heh ih Samaria dowa mina loong asuh pootsiit maantaan kanoisok rumta. Heh ih liita ngah mina elong esiit,
10 to whom they gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the Power of God, which is called Great.
eno erah samnuthung dowa, kurep wangrep ih, heh jeng ah naaririh ih boichaat rumta. Miloong ah ih liita, heh jiinni juuba “Rangte chaan aphaan “Eloongthoon Chaan aphaan” ah jeela.
11 And to him they gave heed, because they had for a long time been amazed by his sorceries.
Miloong asuh maantaan ah rekamdook ih noisok rum kano heh jeng boichaatte totoh ang rumta.
12 But when they believed Philip, publishing the glad tidings concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
Enoothong Philip ih Rangmong Hasong nyia Jisu Kristo ruurang ese tiit ah baat rum kano, hanpi ih rumta, eno minuh miwah loong ah juutem rumta.
13 And Simon himself also believed, and having been baptized he continued with Philip, and was amazed when he beheld the miracles and signs which were wrought.
Simon ih nep hanpiita; eno heh uh juutemta, erah lih adi Philip damdam tong ano paatjaajih ah noisok kano Simon ah rapne ih paatjaata.
14 And the apostles at Jerusalem, hearing that Samaria had received the word of God, sent to them Peter and John;
Kamwah loong ah Jerusalem ni angrum adi Samaria nok hah ih Rangte jengkhaap kap eha ngeh ih japchaat rum ano, neng reeni Pitar nyia Joon kaat thuk rumta.
15 who, having come down, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit.
Erah ni thoknyu ano, Kristaan loong sak nah Esa Chiiala toom pah ah ngeh ih rang ah soomkoh ih nyuuta.
16 For it had not yet fallen upon any of them; but they had only been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.
Esa Chiiala ah o sak ni uh maangpat angra taha; Teesu mendi juutem luulu phang kap rumta.
17 Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
Pitar nyia Joon ih neng khoh ni nengnyi lak ih tajoh nyu ano rangsoom kot kano ba Esa Chiiala ah pah ra taha.
18 But Simon, seeing that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, offered them money,
Kamwah loong ah ih Kristaan loong khoni joh ano rangsoom kot kano Chiiala pah arah Simon ih japtupta. Erah thoidi Simon ih Pitar nyia Joon suh ngun ah konyu ano
19 saying, Give me also this power, that on whomever I lay my hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit.
baat nyuuta, “Arah chaan ah ngasuh nep koh weehe tih, mikhoh nah taajoh angdoh Esa Chiiala toom pah raaha suh ah.”
20 But Peter said to him, Thy money perish with thee! because thou didst think to obtain the gift of God with money.
Eno Pitar ih ngaak liita, “Rangte lakkot ah ngun ih reh ang ngeh ih thun hu bah, an ngun ah hui uno soolam nah toom wang uh!
21 Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter; for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
Rangte mootkaat nah seng damdoh an tami room ru, timnge liidoh Rangte miksok di an tenthun ah kaateng tah angko.
22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray the Lord, if haply the thought of thy heart may be forgiven thee.
Erah raangtaan, an ih sekthun ih uh, an tenthun mongtham ethih thunhu, eno erah likhiik ethih thunhu ah biin anaan toom eh ho asuh Teesu rangsoom uh.
23 For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.
An thidokdok mih siikhaamte nyia rangdah khui ni ang uh rah tup hala.”
24 And Simon answering said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of the things which ye have spoken may come upon me.
Simon ih Pitar nyia Joon suh li nyuuta, set ih Teesu suh rangsoom koh weehe tih, erah li hansih ah likhiik nga taangnah nak toom thok weethuk ha.”
25 They then, when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, were returning to Jerusalem, and publishing the glad tidings in many villages of the Samaritans.
Nengnyi khiikkhi nyia Teesu jengkhaap ah baat nyu ano, Jerusalem ni ngaakwang nyuuta. Samaria ni hadaang hantek ni Ruurang Ese tiit ah lam jangtang ih baatwan nyuuta.
26 But an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, Arise, and go towards the south, to the way that goeth down from Jerusalem to Gaza. This is a desert way.
Teesu rangsah ih Philip suh liita, “Jerusalem dowa ih Gaja ko kala lam adoh juumeh ko ih kaat suh khookhaam uh” (Arah lam adi mih amadi tah khoomka.)
27 And he arose and went; and lo! a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch, a high officer of Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem to worship,
Erah baat kano, Philip ah khookhaam ano dokkhom kata. Eno Ethopia wangcha nuh ngun thiinte, daamhun wasiit, heh nok ni ngaakwangte chomuita. Erah warah Jerusalem ni Rangte rangsoom kah ano mokkaari ni nok ni ngaak wangte angta. Heh lamni soon adi, Isaia khowah ih raang arah leedap weta.
28 was returning and sitting in his chariot; and he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
29 And the Spirit said to Philip, Go near and join thyself to this chariot.
Esa Chiiala ih Philip suh baatta, “Mokkaari ko kah uno heh re tiittiit ih chap kah uh.”
30 And Philip ran up, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, Well, but dost thou understand what thou art reading?
Philip soon kata adi khowah Isaia leedap banweh arah japchaat kata. Eno Philip ih chengta, “An ih wehu adi tiimjih liiha jat nih hu?”
31 And he said, How can I, unless some one shall guide me? And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
Saahaap ah ih ngaakbaatta, “O ih uh lahuk sekbaat rangbah mamah ma jat ang?” Eno Philip ah mokkaari adi heh damdi roongtong suh duupoonta.
32 And the passage of the scripture which he was reading was this: “He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so he openeth not his mouth.
Rangteele erah weta adi amah raangta: Saap ah dook esuh siitkaat ah likhiik, saapsah heh roon sui adi lahu lari thang kah ang ah likhiik, heh khaapsiit taan uh jengmuh.
33 In his humiliation judgment was refused him; and who shall describe his generation? for his life is taken away from the earth.”
Heh kaanju ih rumta, tiim lathika di thetbaat rumta. Heh sutoom satoom loong tiit ah o ih uh tajen baatka, timnge liidi arah hah adi heh roidong ah thoon ih kata.”
34 And the eunuch answering said, I pray thee, of whom doth the prophet say this? Of himself, or of some other man?
Saahaap ah ih Philip suh chengta, “Baat thaak hang, khowah ih liiha ah o suh liiha? Heh teewah tiit tam wahoh tiit baat ha?”
35 And Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this scripture declared to him the glad tidings concerning Jesus.
Eno Philip ih phangbaatta; Rangteele erah dowa phangbaat ano, Jisu Ruurang Ese tiit ah baatta.
36 And as they went along the road, they came to a certain water; and the eunuch saith, See, here is water; what is there to hinder my being baptized?
Philip nyia saahaap ah lamdat ko ih daatsoon kanyu adi, joisah esiit japtup nyuuta, eno saahaap ah ih liita, “Arah di ju cheesah je ah. Ngah laang ah juutem suh tanih nook kang?”
Philip ih liita, “An ten nawa ih jen hanpi ubah juutem ah ejen tem ih uh.” “Hanpi ih hang,” heh ih ngaak baatta; “Nga ih Jisu Kristo ah Rangte Sah ngeh ih hanpi ehang.”
38 And he commanded that the chariot should stop; and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
Saahaap ah ih mokkaari ah tangchap thukta, eno nengnyi Philip ju ko ih daatkhoom kanyu ano, Philip ih heh ju ah temta.
39 But when they had come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more, for he went on his way rejoicing.
Ju nawa dokkhoom nyuuha di, Teesu Chiiala ih Philip ah soonsiitta. Saahaap ah ih Philip ah takah chotupta, eno tenroon woksoon heh lamko ih wangta.
40 But Philip was found at Azotus; and passing through, he published the glad tidings in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.
Philip heh teewah Ajotaas ni ang arah japtupta; eno Ruurang Ese tiit ah hadaang rep ni lam jangtang ih Kaisiria maang thokthok ih baat wanta.
