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.
A, no te mutunga o te ngangau, ka karangatia e Paora nga akonga, ka tohutohu i a ratou, ka poroporoaki, a turia atu ana e ia, haere ana ki Makeronia.
2 Passing through those parts, however, and exhorting them with much discourse, he came into Greece;
A ka haereerea e ia aua wahi, me te whakahau i a ratou ki nga kupu maha, a haere ana ia ki Kariki;
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.
A, ka toru ona marama ki reira, i nga Hurai ano e whakatakoto whakaaro ana mona, i a ia meake rere ki Hiria, ka whakaaro ia kia hoki ma Makeronia.
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.
A i haere tahi i a ia tae noa ki Ahia, a Hopate o Peria, te tama a Piru; a Kaiu o Rerepe; a Timoti hoki ratou ko Tikiku, ko Toropimu o Ahia.
5 And, these, came and were waiting for us at Troas.
Otira kua haere atu enei i mua, a e tatari mai ana ki a matou i Toroa.
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.
Na i te mutunga o nga ra o te taro rewenakore ka rere atu matou i Piripai, a po rima ka tae atu ki a ratou ki Toroa; a e whitu nga ra i noho ai ki reira.
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.
Na i te ra tuatahi o te wiki, i te mea kua huihui matou ki te whawhati taro, ka kauwhau a Paora ki a ratou, e mea ana hoki ki te haere i te aonga ake; a ka kumea roatia tana korero a waenganui po ra ano.
8 Now there were a good many torches in the upper room, where we were gathered together.
A he maha nga rama i te ruma i runga, i te wahi i huihui ai matou.
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.
Na tera tetahi taitamariki, ko Utiku te ingoa, i te matapihi e noho ana, kua tino parangia e te moe: a, ka roa tonu te kauwhau a Paora, na ka pehia rawatia ia e te moe, na ka taka iho i te toru o nga whakapaparanga o nga ruma, tangohia rawatia ak e kua mate.
10 Going down, however, Paul fell upon him, and, embracing him, said—Be not making confusion; for, his soul, is, in him.
Na ka heke iho a Paora, a hinga ana ki runga ki a ia, awhi ana i a ia, ka mea, kei ngangau koutou; kei roto hoki i a ia tona wairua.
11 And, going up, and breaking the loaf, and tasting, —for a good while also conversing, until dawn, thus, he departed.
Na ka kake atu ano ia, ka whawhati taro, ka kai, a ka roa rawa te korero a puao noa, ka haere.
12 And they brought the boy alive, and were comforted beyond measure.
Heoi arahina oratia atu ana e ratou taua taitama, kihai hoki i nohinohi te koa.
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.
Na ko matou kua riro i mua ki te kaipuke, a rere ana ki Aho, i mea kia utaina a Paora i reira: nana hoki i whakarite, i mea hoki ko ia me ra uta.
14 And, when he fell in with us in Assos, we took him on board, and came into Mitylene;
A ka tutaki ki a matou ki Aho, ka utaina ia, a rere ana matou ki Mitirini.
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.
Rere atu ana matou i reira, a i te aonga ake ka taea te ritenga atu o Kio; ao ake ano ka u ki Hamo a noho ana ki Torokiriuma; ao ake ano ka u ki Miretu.
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.
I mea hoki a Paora kia rere i waho ake o Epeha, kei roa ia ki Ahia: i porangi hoki me kore e rokohanga atu ia e te ra o te Petekoha ki Hiruharama.
17 But, from Miletus, he sent unto Ephesus, and called for the elders of the assembly.
Na ka tono tangata atu ia i Miretu ki Epeha, hei tiki i nga kaumatua o te hahi.
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,
A, no to ratou taenga mai ki a ia, ka mea ia ki a ratou, E matau ana koutou ki taku tikanga i roto i a koutou i nga ra katoa, no te ra tuatahi iho ano o toku taenga mai ki Ahia,
19 doing service unto the Lord, with all humility and tears, and temptations which befell me through the plots of the Jews:
Papaku noa iho te ngakau i mahi ai ahau ki te Ariki, he maha ia nga roimata me nga whakamatautau i pa ki ahau, i nga Hurai e whakatakoto whakaaro ana moku:
20 in what manner I in nowise shrank from announcing unto you anything that was profitable and teaching you publicly and in your homes;
Kihai i puritia e ahau tetahi o nga mea pai; i whakakitea atu ano ki a koutou, i akona nuitia ki a koutou, i tenei whare, i tenei whare;
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.
I kauwhautia hoki ki nga Hurai, ki nga Kariki, te ripeneta whaka te Atua, me te whakapono ki to tatou Ariki, ki a Ihu Karaiti.
22 And, now, lo! I, bound in my spirit, am journeying unto Jerusalem; the things which therein shall befall me, not knowing, —
Na, tenei ahau te haere nei ki Hiruharama, he hereherenga na te wairua, kahore hoki e mohio ki nga mea e pa ki ahau i reira:
23 save that, the Holy Spirit, from city to city, doth bear me full witness, saying that, bonds and tribulations, await me.
Heoi ano ko ta te Wairua Tapu e whakaatu nei ki ahau i tenei pa, i tenei pa, e mea ana, kei te taria mai ahau e nga mekameka, e nga mate.
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.
Otira kahore ahau e ihupuku ki te ora, hei painga ki ahau ake, engari kia taea taku e whai nei, me te mahi i homai ki ahau e te Ariki, e Ihu, ara kia whakaaturia te rongopai o te aroha noa o te Atua.
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.
Na e mohio ana tenei ahau, heoi ano kitenga o toku mata e tetahi o koutou, e te hunga i kauwhau haere nei ahau i te rangatiratanga o te Atua i roto i a koutou.
26 Wherefore I take you to witness, on this very day, that, pure am I from the blood of all;
Koia ahau ka mea nei ki a koutou aianei, Kahore oku poke i nga toto o tetahi tangata.
27 for I have not shrunk from announcing all the counsel of God unto you.
Kihai hoki ahau i manawapa ki te kauwhau i te whakaaro katoa o te Atua ki a koutou.
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.
Na kia tupato ki a koutou, ki te kahui katoa ano i meinga ai koutou e te Wairua Tapu hei kaitirotiro, whangaia te hahi a te Atua i hokona nei e ia ki ona ake toto.
29 I, know, that there will enter, after my departure, grievous wolves into your midst, not sparing the little flock;
E mohio ana hoki ahau ki tenei ka riro ahau, tera e puta mai ki a koutou he wuruhi nanakia, e kore nei e tohu i te kahui;
30 and, from among your own selves, will arise men speaking distorted things, to draw away the disciples after themselves.
A ka whakatika ake etahi tangata i roto i a koutou ano, korero ai i nga mea parori ke, hei kukume i nga akonga kia whai i a ratou.
31 Wherefore, be on the watch, remembering that, for three years, night and day, I gave myself no rest, with tears, admonishing each one.
Na reira, kia mataara, kia mahara ano ki nga tau e toru kihai nei ahau i mangere i te po, i te ao, ki te whakatupato i tenei, i tenei o koutou, me te tangi ano ahau.
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.
Na, tenei ahau, te tuku nei i a koutou ki te Atua, ki te kupu hoki o tona aroha noa, e kaha nei ki te whakatupu ake, ki te hoatu hoki i tetahi wahi ki a koutou i roto i te hunga katoa kua oti te whakatapu.
33 The silver or gold or apparel of no one, did I covet:
Kihai i hiahiatia e ahau te hiriwa, te koura, te kakahu ranei, o tetahi.
34 yourselves, acknowledge that, for my necessities and for those who were with me, hard wrought these hands!
E mohio ana ano koutou, na enei ringa i mahi nga mea i matea e ahau, e oku hoa hoki.
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!
I nga mea katoa i hoatu e ahau he tauira ki a koutou, kia penei ta koutou mahi kia atawhaitia ai e koutou te hunga ngoikore, me te mahara ki nga kupu a te Ariki, a Ihu, i mea ra ia, Ko te whakawhiwhi, nui atu te hari i to te whiwhi.
36 And, these things saying, kneeling down with them all, he prayed.
I te mutunga o tenei whai kupu ana ka tukua ona turi ki raro, ka inoi tahi ia me ratou katoa.
37 And they all wept much, and, falling upon Paul’s neck, they were tenderly kissing him;
He nui hoki te tangi o te katoa; hinga iho ratou ki runga ki te kaki o Paora, ka kihi i a ia;
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.
I tino mamae pu hoki ratou i te kupu i mea ai ia, heoi ano to ratou kitenga i tona mata. Na ka arahi ratou i a ia ki te kaipuke.
