Acts 20
1 But, after the tumult had ceased, Paul, sending for the disciples and exhorting them, took leave, and went forth to be journeying unto Macedonia.
Ary rehefa nitsahatra ny tabataba, dia nampaka ny mpianatra Paoly ka nananatra azy sy nanao veloma azy, dia lasa nankany Makedonia izy.
2 Passing through those parts, however, and exhorting them with much discourse, he came into Greece;
Ary rehefa nitety izany tany izany sy nananatra ny olona tamin’ ny teny maro izy, dia tonga tany Grisia.
3 and, spending three months, when a plot was laid against him by the Jews, as he was about to sail to Syria, he determined to turn back through Macedonia.
Ary nony efa nitoetra telo volana teo izy ka efa hiondrana an-tsambo hankany Syria, ary nisy Jiosy nanotrika azy, dia niova hevitra izy ka lasa niverina namaky an’ i Makedonia.
4 Now there were accompanying him, Sopater, son of Pyrrhus a Beroean; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe and Timothy; and, of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.
Ary niaraka taminy hatrany Asia Sopatera, zanak’ i Pyro, avy any Beria, ary Aristarko sy Sekondo avy any Tesalonika, ary Gaio avy any Derbe, ary Timoty, ary Tykiko sy Trofimo avy any Asia.
5 And, these, came and were waiting for us at Troas.
Ireo dia efa nialoha ka niandry anay tany Troasy.
6 And, we, sailed forth, after the days of unleavened bread, from Philippi, and came unto them in Troas in five days, where we tarried seven days.
Dia niondrana an-tsambo niala tany Filipy izahay, rehefa tapitra ny andro fihinanana ny mofo tsy misy masirasira, dia nankany aminy tany Troasy izahay nony afaka hadimiana; ary tany no nitoeranay hafitoana.
7 And, on the first of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul went on to discourse with them, being about to depart on the morrow; and he prolonged his discourse until midnight.
Ary tamin’ ny andro voalohany amin’ ny herinandro, rehefa niangona hamaky mofo izahay, Paoly dia nitori-teny taminy, fa nikasa handeha maraina izy; dia naharitra nitori-teny mandra-paha-mamatonalina izy.
8 Now there were a good many torches in the upper room, where we were gathered together.
Ary nisy jiro maro teo an-trano ambony izay niangonanay.
9 And there sat, a certain young man by name Eutychus, in the window, who was getting overpowered by a deep sleep; and, while Paul was discoursing yet further, being overpowered by his sleep, he fell, from the third story, down, and was taken up dead.
Ary nisy zatovo anankiray atao hoe Eotyka nipetraka teo am-baravarankely ka sondrian-tory; ary raha naharitra ela ny toritenin’ i Paoly, dia niraika noho ny torimaso ilay zatovo ka nianjera tamin’ ny tany avy eny amin’ ny rihana intelo mifanongoa, ary nony narenina izy, dia indro fa efa maty.
10 Going down, however, Paul fell upon him, and, embracing him, said—Be not making confusion; for, his soul, is, in him.
Ary Paoly nidina, dia niankohoka taminy sy nanohona azy ka nanao hoe: Aza mihorikorika ianareo, fa mbola misy aina ihany izy.
11 And, going up, and breaking the loaf, and tasting, —for a good while also conversing, until dawn, thus, he departed.
Ary niakatra Paoly, dia namaky ny mofo, ary rehefa nihinana sy niresaka ela ambara-pahamarain’ ny andro izy, dia lasa nandeha.
12 And they brought the boy alive, and were comforted beyond measure.
Ary nitondra ilay zatovo efa velona izy ireo ka faly dia faly.
13 And, we, going forward unto the ship, set sail for Assos, from thence being about to take up Paul; for, so, had he arranged, being about, himself, to go on foot.
Ary izahay nialoha ho any an-tsambo, dia niondrana nankany Aso, fa eo no handraisana an’ i Paoly, satria eo no fotoana nataony, fa nikasa handeha an-tanety izy.
14 And, when he fell in with us in Assos, we took him on board, and came into Mitylene;
Ary rehefa nihaona taminay tany Aso izy, dia noraisinay, ary dia lasa nankany Mitylena izahay.
15 and, from thence sailing away on the morrow, we came over against Chios, and, on the next day, we thrust aside into Samos, and, on the succeeding day, we came into Miletus.
Ary rehefa niondrana an-tsambo niala teo izahay, dia tonga tandrifin’ i Kio nony ampitso; ary nony ampitso indray dia niantsona tao Samo; ka tonga tany Mileto izahay nony ampitson’ iny.
16 For Paul had determined to sail past Ephesus, lest he should happen to lose time in Asia; for he hastened, if it were possible for him, against the day of Pentecost, to arrive, in Jerusalem.
Fa Paoly efa nikasa handeha an-tsambo handalo any Efesosy mba tsy hitoerany ela any Asia; fa maika izy, raha azony hatao, hamonjy ny andro Pentekosta any Jerosalema.
17 But, from Miletus, he sent unto Ephesus, and called for the elders of the assembly.
Ary raha tany Mileto Paoly, dia naniraka hankany Efesosy izy ka nampaka ny loholon’ ny fiangonana hankeo aminy.
18 And, when they were come to him, he said unto them—Ye yourselves, well know, from the first day when I set foot in Asia, in what manner came to be with you all the time,
Ary nony tonga teo aminy ireo, dia hoy izy taminy: Fantatrareo hatramin’ ny andro voalohany nahatongavako teto Asia izay toetry ny fitondran-tenako taminareo tamin’ izany andro rehetra izany,
19 doing service unto the Lord, with all humility and tears, and temptations which befell me through the plots of the Jews:
dia ny nanompoako ny Tompo tamin’ ny fanetren-tena rehetra sy ny ranomaso ary ny fakam-panahy izay nanjo ahy tamin’ ny fanotrehan’ ny Jiosy,
20 in what manner I in nowise shrank from announcing unto you anything that was profitable and teaching you publicly and in your homes;
ka tsy mba nafeniko izay mahasoa, fa nambarako sy nampianariko anareo teo imason’ ny olona ary tao amin’ ny isan-trano;
21 bearing full witness, both to Jews and to Greeks, as to the repentance due unto God, and as to belief on our Lord Jesus.
ary nambarako tamin’ ny Jiosy sy ny jentilisa koa ny fibebahana amin’ Andriamanitra sy ny finoana an’ i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika.
22 And, now, lo! I, bound in my spirit, am journeying unto Jerusalem; the things which therein shall befall me, not knowing, —
Ary ankehitriny, indro, terỳ am-panahy hankany Jerosalema aho, nefa tsy fantatro izay hanjo ahy any,
23 save that, the Holy Spirit, from city to city, doth bear me full witness, saying that, bonds and tribulations, await me.
afa-tsy izay ambaran’ ny Fanahy Masìna amiko amin’ ny isan-tanàna, fa hisy famatorana sy fahoriana hanjo ahy.
24 But, for no cause whatever, am I making my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I have received from the Lord Jesus, to bear full witness as to the good news of the favour of God.
Nefa tsy ataoko ho zavatra akory ny aiko, mba hahavita ny alehako, dia ny fanompoana izay noraisiko tamin’ i Jesosy Tompo hanambara ny filazantsaran’ ny fahasoavan’ Andriamanitra.
25 And, now, lo! I, know that, no more, shall ye see my face, —ye all, among whom I have gone about proclaiming the kingdom.
Ary, indro, ankehitriny fantatro fa tsy hahita ny tavako intsony ianareo rehetra izay nalehako nitoriako ny fanjakana.
26 Wherefore I take you to witness, on this very day, that, pure am I from the blood of all;
Koa manambara aminareo aho anio fa afaka amin’ ny ranareo rehetra aho.
27 for I have not shrunk from announcing all the counsel of God unto you.
Fa tsy nafeniko anareo, fa notoriko taminareo avokoa ny saina rehetra natolotr’ Andriamanitra.
28 Be taking heed unto yourselves, and unto all the little flock in which the Holy Spirit hath set, you, as overseers, —to be shepherding the assembly of God which he hath acquired through means of the blood of his own.
Tandremo ny tenanareo sy ny ondry rehetra izay nanaovan’ ny Fanahy Masìna anareo ho mpitandrina’, hiandrasanareo ny fiangonan Andriamanitra, izay novidiny tamin’ ny ràny.
29 I, know, that there will enter, after my departure, grievous wolves into your midst, not sparing the little flock;
Fantatro fa rehefa lasa aho dia hisy amboadia masiaka hiditra eo aminareo izay tsy hiantra ny ondry.
30 and, from among your own selves, will arise men speaking distorted things, to draw away the disciples after themselves.
Ary avy aminareo no hiposahan’ ny olona sasany mitory teny tsy marina hitaona ny mpianatra hanaraka azy.
31 Wherefore, be on the watch, remembering that, for three years, night and day, I gave myself no rest, with tears, admonishing each one.
Koa miambena, ary tsarovy fa telo taona mipaka aho tsy nitsahatra nananatra anareo rehetra andro aman’ alina tamin’ ny ranomaso.
32 Now, therefore, I commend you unto the Lord, and unto his word of favour, —which is able to build up and give the inheritance among all the hallowed ones.
Ary ankehitriny izaho manolotra anareo ho amin’ Andriamanitra sy ho amin’ ny tenin’ ny fahasoavany, izay mahay mampandroso sy manome lova anareo eo amin’ izay rehetra nohamasinina.
33 The silver or gold or apparel of no one, did I covet:
Tsy mba naniry volafotsy na volamena na lamban’ olona aho.
34 yourselves, acknowledge that, for my necessities and for those who were with me, hard wrought these hands!
Fa fantatrareo ihany fa ireto tanako ireto no niasa mba hahazoako sy ny niaraka tamiko izay nilainay.
35 In all things, I gave you to understand, that, thus toiling, it behoves to be helping the weak, also to be keeping in mind the words of the Lord Jesus, that, he himself, said—Happy is it, rather to give than to receive!
Efa nasehoko anareo tamin’ ny zavatra rehetra fa tokony hiasa toy izany koa ianareo, mba hiantra ny mahantra ka hahatsiaro ny tenin’ i Jesosy Tompo, izay manao hoe: Mahasambatra kokoa ny manome noho ny mandray.
36 And, these things saying, kneeling down with them all, he prayed.
Ary rehefa niteny izany izy, dia nandohalika teo ka niara-nivavaka tamin’ izy rehetra.
37 And they all wept much, and, falling upon Paul’s neck, they were tenderly kissing him;
Ary nitomany mafy izy rehetra, dia namihina ny vozon’ i Paoly ka nanoroka azy,
38 being most distressed for the word which he had said, —That, no more, should they, his face, behold. And they accompanied him unto the ship.
sady nalahelo loatra noho ny nilazany fa tsy hahita ny tavany intsony izy. Dia nanatitra azy teny an-tsambo izy.
