Acts 17
1 And, travelling through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews;
Pool nyia Silas Thesalonika ni Amphipolis nyia Apollonia lam ih kanyuuta, erah hah adi Jehudi rangsoomnok eje angta.
2 and, according to Paul’s custom, he went in unto them, and, for three sabbaths, reasoned with them from the Scriptures, —
Saahoh di kakah ah likhiik Pool ah Jehudi rangsoomnok ni kata. Jehudi Naangtongsa rangwu di sa jom kah ano miloong ah damdi roongwaan kata,
3 opening up, and setting forth, that it was needful for, the Christ, to suffer, and to arise from among the dead; and [saying], This, is the Christ, —Jesus, whom, I, am declaring unto you.
eno Rangteele tiitkhaap ah baattaan rumta, Kristo ah cham jaatjaat etheng angta eno tek nawa we ngaaksaat ih ah. Pool ih baat rumta, “Erah Jisu tiit ah baat rumhala,” eno “erah juuba Kristo ang ah.”
4 And, some from among them, were persuaded, and cast in their lot with Paul and Silas; also, of the devout Greeks, a great throng, and, of the chief women, not a few.
Mararah loong ah ih erah tiit ah kap ih rum ano Pool nyia Silas damdi roongroop rumta; minuh ejat esam loong nyia Grik nok hah Rangte ra choote loong ah nep roongroop rumta.
5 But the Jews, being, jealous, and taking unto themselves certain wicked men, of the rabble, and making a riot, were setting the city in an uproar; and, besieging the house of Jason, were seeking to lead them forth unto the populace, —
Enoothong Jehudi loong ah ih miksuk ih rum ano pheehoon thaangsang theng dowa mih lajak loong khoonpoon rumta. Erah miloong ah ih samnuthung ah rapne ih phaanghoom rumta, eno Pool nyia Silas ah nokwah dungni siitkaat suh li rum ano Jaasoon nok ah kooknak ih rumta.
6 and, not finding them, they began dragging Jason and certain brethren unto the city-rulers, shouting—They who have thrown the inhabited earth into confusion, the same, hither also, are come, —
Pool nyia Silas laje kokaano, Jaasoon nyia Teesu liphante wahoh loong ah samnuthung dowa saahaap loong reeni dok hoom kaat rum ano riiraak rumta, “Arah miloong ah ih seng hadaang noongrep ni haphaang hoom rumha! Haphaang hoomte loong ah seng hah ni thok rumhala,
7 unto whom Jason hath given welcome; and, these all, contrary to the decrees of Caesar, are acting, —saying that there is another king, Jesus.
eno Jaasoon ih heh nok ni jamthuk nyuula. Luuwanglong Hootthe ah arah loong ah ih thet hoom rumha, neng ih liiha bolam Luuwang wahoh eje, heh men ah angkoleh Jisu ngeh ih poon rumha.”
8 And they troubled the multitude and the city-rulers, when they heard these things;
Erah jeng ah chaat rum ano, samnuthung dowa miloong ah nyia saahaap loong ah neng thung rapne phaangdat rumta.
9 and, taking security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.
Saahaap loong ah ih Jaasoon nyia heh joon loong ah chang rum ano daap haat rumta.
10 But, the brethren, straightway, during the night, sent away both Paul and Silas unto Beroea, who, indeed, arriving, unto the synagogue of the Jews, went off;
Rang ah nak kano, Teesu liphante loong ah ih Pool nyia Silas ah Beria ni kaat thuk rumta. Erah ni thoknyu ano, Jehudi rangsoomnok ni kanyuuta.
11 and, these, were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they welcomed the word with all readiness of mind, daily, searching the Scriptures, —whether these things could be so.
Erah hah dowa miloong ah Thesalonika mih thaknang ih roongwaan roongtiit ang rumta. Neng loong ah ih rangte tiit ah tenroon woksoon ih boichaat rumta, eno Pool nyia Silas ih baat nyuuta Rangteele ah ami aha jat suh ngeh ih saarookwet ih weh rumta.
12 Many, therefore, from among them, believed, and, of the Grecian women of the higher class, and of men, not a few.
Mih hantek ih hanpi rumta, Grik nok hah minuh ejat esam loong ih nyia miwah loong ih uh hanpi ih rumta.
13 But, when the Jews from Thessalonica came to know that, in Beroea also, had the word of God been declared by Paul, they came thither also, stirring up and troubling the multitudes.
Enoothong Thesalonika dowa Jehudi loong ah ih Pool ih Beria ni Rangte tiit baat japchaat rum ano Beria ni miloong ah roonphak ra rum haano daanmui thuk rumta.
14 Howbeit, then, immediately, the brethren sent away, Paul, to be journeying as far as unto the sea; and both Silas and Timothy stayed behind, there.
Rangte ra choote loong ah ih Pool ah juukaang ko ih hotsoon kaat thuk rumta; enoothong Silas nyia Timothi ah Beria ni tangtong nyuuta.
15 But, they who were conducting Paul, brought him as far as Athens, and, receiving a commandment unto Silas and Timothy, that with, all possible speed, they would come unto him, they departed.
Pool siitkaatte miloong ah Ethen ni maang thokthok ih siitkaat rumta eno Beria ni maang ngaakwang rumka di Pool ih Silas nyia Timothi ah kharok ih toom chokhoom nyuuha ngeh ih maatbaat rumta.
16 But, while, in Athens, Paul was expecting them, his spirit within him was being urged on, seeing how the city was given to idols.
Pool ih Silas nyia Timothi Ethen ni ban nyu adi, erah samnuthung dowa miloong ah sok ano rapne ih thungthita.
17 So then, he began reasoning in the synagogue with the Jews, and with them who worshipped; and, in the market-place, every day, with them who happened to be at hand.
Erah raangtaan ih Pool ah Jehudi rangsoomnok ni Jehudi nyia Ranglajatte Rangte rangsoomte eh hoon rumta loong ah damdi roongwangta, eno erah di o mina thaangsangte daankhoomta loong ah damdi nep roong waanta.
18 But, certain both of the Epicurean and of the Stoic philosophers, were encountering him; and some were saying—What might this picker-up-of-scraps wish to be saying? And, others—Of foreign demons, he seemeth to be a declarer: because, of Jesus and the Resurrection, he was announcing the joyful tidings.
Epikuria nok hah nyia Stoik nyootsootte nep ih Pool damdi daanmui rumta. Mararah ih cheng rumta, “Arah ih tiim uh lajat kaadi tiim jengte jengla?” Wahoh loong ah ih ngaak baatta, “Mideek mikaan Rangte tiit ta baat ha nih.” Arah jengkhaap ah Pool ih Jisu nyia ngaaksaat tiit baat kano li rumta.
19 And so, laying hold of him, they brought him up, to the Hill of Mars, saying—Can we get to know what this new teaching is, which, by thee, is being spoken.
Erah thoidi Pool ah samnuthung ni Ariopagus Ngoongthum thengni siitkaat rum ano cheng rumta, “An ih ena ena nyootsoot hu ah tiimjih suh liihu.
20 For, certain foreign things, art thou bringing into our hearing: We are minded to get to know, therefore, what these things please to be!
Mararah ah seng ih dookdah ih chaat hi, erah ah ju tiimsuh liiha ngeh ih jat suh liihi.”
21 Now, all Athenians and the sojourning foreigners, unto nothing else, were devoting their leisure, than to be telling or hearing, something newer.
(Ethen nok hah nyia mideek nawa thok songtongta loong ah ena ena tiitwaan chaat suh nyia jat suh karam rumta.)
22 And Paul taking his stand in the midst of the Hill of Mars, said—Ye men of Athens! In every way, how unusually reverent of the demons ye are, I perceive.
Pool samnuthung dowa Ngoongthumte ngathong ni toonchap ano jengta, “Sen Ethen nok hah loong ah thooroom mina.
23 For, passing through, and carefully observing your objects of devotion, I found an altar also, in which was inscribed—Unto an Unknown God. What, therefore, not knowing, ye reverence, the same, do, I, declare unto you.
Tiimnge liidi sen hadaang ni tumkhoom lang adi sen rangsoom theng ni, thong ni raanghan ah emah raang arah japtuptang, ‘Lajatke Rangte suh.’ Heh men lajat kan ah soomtu han, ngah ih erah laangbo nyootsoot rumhala.
24 The God that made the world and all things that are therein, the same, being, Lord, of heaven and earth, not in hand-made shrines, doth dwell,
Mongrep nyia erah khui ni tongtongla hoonte Rangte ah juuba rang nyia hah raangtaan ih Teesu eno heh mabah uh mina ih hoon hi rangsoomnok nah tatongka.
25 nor, by human hands, is waited upon, as though in want of anything, himself, giving unto all life and breath and all things;
Adoleh seng jiin nawa tiim uh tasuh ri, seng roidong, sengtak senglak jaatrep heh teeteewah ih koh hali.
26 he made also, of one, every nation of men to dwell upon all the face of the earth, —marking out fitting opportunities, and the bounds of their dwelling place,
Mina wasiit dowa warep waraang loong jaat thuk ano mongrep noongrep ni songtong thukla. Rangte heh teeteewah ih maang edook mathan saajang nyia marah hah adoh songtong theng ah erah thiin choi.
27 that they might be seeking God—if, after all, indeed, they might feel after him and find him, —although, in truth, he is already not far from any one of us.
Erah ah tiim esuh liita, mina ih Rangte ah jam ih ah, adoleh erah jam rum adoh mok chojam ih rum ah. Ang ah bah uh Rangte ah seng loong taangnawa haloot ni bah tah angka;
28 For, in him, we live and move and are: as, even some of your own poets, have said—For, his offspring also, we are.
o ih bah uh li eta, ‘Heh damdi tongli, heh damdi khoomli, heh dam di hak li.’ Boongkaat seehoon leedap raangte sengdung dowa ih liita, ‘Seng loong ah uh hesuh hesah.’
29 Being, then, offspring, of God, we ought not to be supposing that, unto gold or silver or stone, graven by art and device of man, the Divine, is like.
Seng Rangte suh hesuh hesah lek angleh, lamok thun theng hebanlam ih hun adoleh kom nyia jong, mina lak ih miihoon ha likhiik ang ah ngeh ah.
30 The times of ignorance, therefore, overlooking, God, as things now are, is charging all men everywhere to repent,
Maangdoh bah jirep ah Rangte ih heh men maang jat doh tasam sokta, enoothong amadi mirep suh sekthun etheng ngeh ih baat ha.
31 inasmuch as he hath appointed a day, in which he is about to be judging the habitable earth in righteousness, by a man whom he hath pointed out, —offering faith unto all, by raising him from among the dead?
Tiimnge liidi, heh ih danjeeta loong asuh arah hah ah dande thuk suh rangwu saakaan thiin eha. Tek nawa saatsiitta warah jun ih mirep suh heh ih jat ih thuk hali!”
32 Now, when they heard of raising the dead, some, indeed, began to mock, while, others, said—We will hear thee, concerning this, even again.
Pool ih tek nawa ngaaksaat tiit baat kano mararah ah doondaak siitkook ih rumta, eno mararah ih liita, “Seng suh arah jengkhaap ah we bootbaat ih weehe.”
33 Thus, Paul, came forth out of their midst.
Erah lomkhoon rumta dowa Pool ah doksoon ih kata.
34 But, certain persons, joining themselves unto him, believed; among whom were even Dionysius the Mars-hill judge, and a woman by name Damaris, and others with them.
Miwah mararah ih hanpi ih rum ano roongroop rumta, neng damdi Dionisius nep roong roopta, minuh nusiit Damaris nyia, mih wahoh loong ah uh eje angta.
