Acts 13
1 Now there were in Antioch, distributed through the existing assembly, —prophets and teachers: both Barnabas and Symeon who was called Niger, and Lucius the Cyrenian, Manaen also, Herod the tetrarch’s foster-brother, and Saul.
Ary teo amin’ ny fiangonana tany Antiokia nisy mpaminany sy mpampianatra: Barnabasy sy Simeona, izay atao hoe Nigera, sy Losio Kyreniana sy Menahema (izay niolonono tamin’ i Heroda mpanapaka) ary Saoly.
2 And, as they were publicly ministering unto the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said—Separate forthwith unto me, Barnabas and Saul, unto the work whereunto I have called them.
Ary raha nanao fanompoam-pivavahana ho an’ ny Tompo sy nifady hanina ireo, dia hoy ny Fanahy Masìna: Atokàny ho Ahy Barnabasy sy Saoly hanao ny asa izay efa niantsoako azy.
3 Then, fasting and praying, and laying their hands upon them, they sent them away.
Ary rehefa nifady hanina sy nivavaka ary nametra-tanana taminy izy, dia nandefa azy.
4 They, therefore, being sent forth by the Holy Spirit, went down unto Seleucia, and, from thence, sailed away unto Cyprus;
Ary rehefa nirahin’ ny Fanahy Masìna izy roa lahy, dia nidina nankany Seleokia izy ka niondrana an-tsambo teo hankany Kyprosy.
5 And, coming to be in Salamis, they declared the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews; —and they had, John also, as an attendant.
Ary nony tonga tany Salamisy izy, dia nitory ny tenin’ Andriamanitra teny amin’ ny synagogan’ ny Jiosy; ary nitondra an’ i Jaona koa ho mpanampy azy izy.
6 And, passing through the whole island, as far as Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a false-prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesus;
Ary rehefa namaky ny nosy ka tonga tany Pafo izy, dia nahita Jiosy anankiray atao hoe Barjesosy, mpanao ody sady mpaminany sandoka,
7 Who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man. The same, calling for Barnabas and Saul, sought to hear the word of God.
izay nitoetra tao amin’ i Serygio Paolo, governoran’ ny tany sady lehilahy hendry; ary izy nampaka an’ i Barnabasy sy Saoly hankao aminy ka naniry mba hahare ny tenin’ Andriamanitra.
8 But Elymas the magician, —for so, when translated, is his name, —withstood them; seeking to turn aside the proconsul from the faith.
Fa Elyma, mpanao ody (fa izany no anarany, raha adika), nanohitra azy roa lahy sady nitady hampivily ny governora tsy hanaiky ny finoana.
9 But Saul, who is also Paul, filled with Holy Spirit, looking steadfastly at him,
Fa Saoly kosa, izay atao hoe koa Paoly, feno ny Fanahy Masìna, dia nibanjina azy
10 Said—O full of all guile, and all recklessness! Son of an adversary! Enemy of all righteousness!—Wilt thou not cease to pervert the straight ways of the Lord?
ka nanao hoe: Ialahy feno ny fitaka rehetra sy ny fahafetsena rehetra, ialahy zanaky ny devoly sady fahavalon’ ny fahamarinana rehetra, tsy hitsahatra tsy hamily ny lala-mahitsin’ ny Tompo va ialahy?
11 Now, therefore, lo! the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun, until a fitting time. And, instantly, there fell upon him a mist and darkness; and, going about, he was seeking such as might lead him by the hand.
Ary, indro, ankehitriny ny tanan’ ny Tompo hamely an’ ialahy, dia ho jamba ialahy ka tsy hahita masoandro aloha. Dia latsaka tao aminy niaraka tamin’ izay ny mampanjambena sy ny aizina, ary niraparapa nitady olona hitantana azy izy.
12 Then, the proconsul, seeing what had happened, believed, being amazed at the teaching of the Lord.
Ary ny governora, nony nahita izay efa natao, dia nino sady talanjona tamin’ ny fampianaran’ ny Tompo.
13 And, setting sail from Paphos, Paul’s company came into Perga of Pamphylia; but, John, withdrawing from them, returned unto Jerusalem.
Ary Paoly sy ny namany, rehefa niondrana an-tsambo niala avy tany Pafo, dia tonga tany Peryga any Pamfyha; fa Jaona nandao azy ka niverina nankany Jerosalema.
14 They, however, passing through from Perga, arrived at Antioch of Pisidia; and, going into the synagogue on the sabbath-day, sat down.
Ary rehefa niala tany Peryga izy ireo, dia nandroso nankany Antiokia any Pisidia, dia niditra tao amin’ ny synagoga tamin’ ny andro Sabata ka nipetraka teo.
15 And, after the reading of the law and the prophets, the synagogue-rulers sent unto them, saying—Brethren! if there is in you a word of exhortation unto the people, say on.
Ary rehefa vita ny famakiana ny lalàna sy ny mpaminany, ny mpanapaka ny synagoga dia nampilaza taminy ka nanao hoe: Ry rahalahy, raha misy fananarana hataonareo amin’ ny olona, dia ataovy.
16 And Paul, standing up, and making a sign with his hand, said—Ye men of Israel! and such as revere God! hearken: —
Ary Paoly nitsangana, dia nanofa tanana azy ka nanao hoe: Ry lehilahy Isiraely sy ianareo izay matahotra an’ Andriamanitra, mihainoa;
17 The God of this people Israel, chose our fathers, and, the people, he exalted, by their sojourn in the land of Egypt, —and, with a high arm, brought he them out of it;
Andriamanitr’ izao olona Isiraely izao efa nifidy ny razantsika ka nanandratra ny olona, raha nivahiny tany amin’ ny tany Egypta izy, ary sandry avo no nitondrany azy nivoaka avy tany.
18 And, for the time of about forty years, bare with their manners in the desert;
Ary Izy nandefitra tamin’ ny nataony tany an-efitra tokony ho efa-polo taona.
19 And, overthrowing seven nations in the land of Canaan, gave them their land as an inheritance—about four hundred and fifty years.
Ary rehefa nandrava firenena fito tany amin’ ny tany Kanana Izy, dia nampandovainy ny tanin’ ireny izy
20 And, after these things, he gave them judges, until Samuel the prophet.
tokony ho dimam-polo amby efa-jato taona; ary rehefa afaka izany, dia nomeny mpitsara izy hatramin’ i Samoela mpaminany.
21 And, from that time, they asked for themselves a king, and God gave them Saul, son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, during forty years;
Ary rehefa afaka indray izany, dia nangataka mpanjaka izy; ka dia nomen’ Andriamanitra azy efa-polo taona Saoly, zanak’ i Kisy, lehilahy avy tamin’ ny firenen’ i Benjamina.
22 And, setting him aside, raised up, David, unto them for king, —of whom he also said, bearing witness—I have found David, the son of Jesse, —[a man] according to my heart, who will do all my will.
Ary rehefa nanaisotra an’ i Saoly Izy, dia nanandratra an’ i Davida ho mpanjakany sady nanambara azy hoe: Izaho nahita an’ i Davida, zanak’ i Jese, lehilahy araka ny foko, izay hanao ny sitrapoko rehetra.
23 From this man’s seed, hath God, according to promise, brought unto Israel, a saviour—Jesus:
Avy tamin’ ny taranak’ izany lehilahy izany no nitondran’ Andriamanitra an’ i Jesosy araka ny teny fikasana ho Mpamonjy ny Isiraely,
24 John, beforehand proclaiming, before the face of his coming in, an immersion of repentance, unto all the people of Israel.
rehefa notorin’ i Jaona tamin’ ny olona Isiraely rehetra aloha ny batisan’ ny fibebahana, fony tsy mbola tonga Izy.
25 And, as John was fulfilling his course, he was saying—Whom are ye supposing that I am? I, am not he! But lo! there cometh, after me, one of whom I am not worthy, the sandals of his feet, to loosen.
Ary Jaona, rehefa nadiva no nahatanteraka ny nalehany, dia nanao hoe: Ataonareo ho iza moa aho? Tsy Izy aho; fa, indro, misy Anankiray avy ao aoriako, ka izaho tsy miendrika hamaha ny kapa eo an-tongony akory.
26 Brethren! sons of the race of Abraham, and those who among you revere God, —unto you, hath this word of salvation been sent forth.
Ry rahalahy, taranak’ i Abrahama, sy izay rehetra eo aminareo matahotra an’ Andriamanitra, dia ho amintsika no nampitondrana ny tenin’ izao famonjena izao.
27 For, they who were dwelling in Jerusalem, and their rulers, not recognising him, have, by judging him, fulfilled, the very voices of the prophets which every sabbath are being read;
Fa izay monina any Jerosalema sy ny loholony, satria tsy mba nahafantatra Azy, na ny feon’ ny mpaminany izay vakina isan-tSabata, dia nahatanteraka izany tamin’ ny nanamelohany Azy.
28 And, though no single cause of death they found, yet claimed they of Pilate that he should be slain.
Ary na dia tsy hitany aza izay tokony hanamelohana Azy ho faty, dia nangataka tamin’ i Pilato ihany izy hamonoana Ary.
29 And, when they had finished all those things which, concerning him, had been written, taking him down from the tree, they put him in a tomb.
Ary rehefa nahatanteraka izay rehetra voasoratra ny amin’ i Jesosy izy, dia nanaisotra Azy tamin’ ny hazo ka nandevina Azy tao am-pasana.
30 But, God, raised him from among the dead:
Fa Andriamanitra kosa nanangana Azy tamin’ ny maty.
31 Who appeared, during many days, unto them who had come up with him from Galilee unto Jerusalem; who, indeed, [now] are his witnesses unto the people.
Ary Izy niseho andro maro tamin’ izay niara-niakatra taminy avy tany Galilia ho any Jerosalema, ka dia ireo no vavolombelony amin’ ny olona ankehitriny.
32 We, therefore, unto you, bring the good news, as to the promise which, unto our fathers, was made, —
Ary izahay mitory ny filazantsara aminareo, dia ilay teny fikasana nolazaina tamin’ ny razana,
33 That God hath fulfilled, the same, for our children, by raising up Jesus: as also, in the second psalm, it is written—My son, art, thou: I, this day, have begotten thee.
dia ny nahatanterahan’ Andriamanitra izany tamin’ ny zanatsika, raha nanangana an’ i Jesosy Izy, araka ny voasoratra eo amin’ ny Salamo faharoa hoe: Zanako Hianao, Izaho niteraka Anao androany.
34 And, in that he raised him from among the dead, no more destined to return unto corruption, on this wise hath he spoken—I will give unto you the faithful lovingkindnesses of David.
Ary ny amin’ ny nananganany Azy tamin’ ny maty, ka tsy hiverina ho amin’ ny lò intsony Izy, dia izao no voalazany: Homeko anareo ny famindram-po mahatoky nampanantenaina an’ i Davida.
35 Wherefore also, in a different [place], he saith—Thou wilt not give thy man of lovingkindness to see corruption.
Fa hoy Izy ao amin’ ny Salamo hafa koa: Tsy hamela ny Iray Masinao ho tratry ny lò Hianao.
36 For, David, indeed, unto his own generation having done service, by the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was added unto fathers, and saw corruption;
Fa Davida, rehefa nahatanteraka ny sitrapon’ Andriamanitra hahasoa ny olona niara-belona taminy, dia nodi-mandry ka nangonina ho any amin’ ny razany izy ary tratry ny lò;
37 But, he whom God hath raised, did not see corruption.
fa Izay natsangan’ Andriamanitra no tsy mba tratry ny lò.
38 Be it known unto you, therefore, brethren, —that, through this man, unto you, remission of sins is declared;
Ary aoka ho fantatrareo, ry rahalahy, fa izany Lehilahy izany no itoriana famelan-keloka aminareo;
39 And, from all things from which ye could not, by the law of Moses, be justified, by this man, everyone that believeth, is justified.
ary ao aminy no anamarinana izay rehetra mino ho afaka amin’ ny heloka rehetra izay tsy azo nanamarinana anareo tamin’ ny lalàn’ i Mosesy.
40 Be taking heed, therefore, lest that come upon you which hath been spoken in the prophets—
Koa tandremo fandrao hihatra izay voalaza eo amin’ ny mpaminany hoe:
41 See, ye despisers, and marvel, and disappear: in that, a work, am, I, working in your days, —a work, which in nowise will ye believe, though one relate it in full unto you.
Izahaonareo mpamotsifotsy, dia gagà, ka levona; Fa Izaho manao asa amin’ ny andronareo, Dia asa izay tsy hinoanareo akory, na dia hisy hilaza aminareo aza
42 And, as they were going out, they kept on beseeching that, on the ensuing sabbath, might be spoken unto them these things.
Ary rehefa nivoaka izy, dia nangatahiny holazaina aminy indray izany teny izany amin’ ny Sabata manaraka.
43 And, when the congregation was broken up, there followed many of the Jews, and of the devout proselytes, with Paul and Barnabas; who, indeed, in speaking unto them, went on persuading them to abide in the favour of God.
Ary rehefa nirava ny fiangonana, dia maro tamin’ ny Jiosy sy ny proselyta izay nanompo an’ Andriamanitra no nanaraka an’ i Paoly sy Barnabasy, izay niteny taminy ka namporisika azy haharitra amin’ ny fahasoavan’ Andriamanitra.
44 And, on the coming sabbath, almost all the city, was gathered together, to hear the word of God.
Ary nony tamin’ ny Sabata manaraka, dia saiky tafangona avokoa ny tao an-tanàna hihaino ny tenin’ Andriamanitra.
45 But, the Jews, seeing, the multitudes, were filled with jealousy, —and began speaking against the things which, by Paul, were being spoken, defaming them.
Nefa ny Jiosy kosa, raha nahita ny vahoaka betsaka, dia feno fialonana ka nanohitra ny teny nolazain’ i Paoly, sady niteny ratsy.
46 And Paul and Barnabas, speaking boldly, said—Unto you, was it necessary, that the word of God should first be spoken: seeing ye are thrusting it from you, and, unworthy, are judging yourselves of the age-abiding life, lo! we turn unto the nations; (aiōnios g166)
Ary Paoly sy Barnabasy dia niteny tamin’ ny fahasahiana ka nanao hoe: Hianareo no tsy maintsy nitoriana ny tenin’ Andriamanitra aloha; fa rehefa mandà izany ianareo ka manao ny tenanareo ho tsy miendrika hahazo fiainana mandrakizay, dia indro, mitodika mankany amin’ ny jentilisa izahay; (aiōnios g166)
47 For so hath the Lord commanded us—I have set thee for a light of nations, that thou mayest be for salvation unto the end of the earth.
fa izao no nandidian’ ny Tompo anay: Efa nanendry Anao ho fahazavan’ ny jentilisa Aho, Mba ho famonjena hatrany amin’ ny faran’ ny tany Hianao.
48 And they of the nations, hearing [this], began to rejoice, and to be glorifying God, and they believed—as many as had become disposed for life age-abiding. (aiōnios g166)
Ary rehefa nandre izany ny jentilisa, dia faly izy ka nankalaza ny tenin’ Andriamanitra; ary izay voalahatra ho amin’ ny fiainana mandrakizay dia nino. (aiōnios g166)
49 And the word of the Lord went on to be carried through the whole country.
Ary ny tenin’ ny Tompo dia naely eran’ izany tany rehetra izany.
50 But, the Jews, urged on the devout women of the higher class, and the chief men of the city, and roused up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, —and thrust them out from their bounds.
Fa ny Jiosy nampitaitra ny vehivavy manan-kaja izay nivavaka sy ny lehibe tao an-tanàna, dia nahatonga fanenjehana tamin’ i Paoly sy Barnabasy ireny ka nandroaka azy niala tamin’ ny taniny.
51 But they, shaking off the dust of their feet against them, came into Iconium.
Fa izy roa lahy kosa nanintsana ny vovoka tamin’ ny tongony hiampanga ireo, dia nankany Ikonioma.
52 And, the disciples, were filled with joy, and with Holy Spirit.
Ary dia feno fifaliana sy ny Fanahy Masìna ny mpianatra.
