Acts 28
1 And, when we were safely through, then, we knew that the island was called, Melita.
जिब हम बच लिकड़े, तो बेरा लाग्या के यो माल्टा टापू कुह्वावै सै।
2 And, the natives, began to shew us no common philanthropy; for, kindling a fire, they received us all, because of the rain that had set in, and because of the cold.
ओड़ै के बासिन्दयां नै म्हारै पै अनोक्खी दया करी, क्यूँके मिह बरसण कै कारण ठण्ड थी, ज्यांतै आग सुलगाकै हम सारया ताहीं ठहराया।
3 But, when Paul had gathered a certain lot of firewood into a bundle, and laid it on the fire, a viper, by reason of the heat, coming forth, fastened on his hand.
जिब पौलुस नै लाकड़ियाँ का भरोटा कठ्ठा करकै आग पै धरया, तो एक साँप आँच पाकै लिकड़या अर उसकै हाथ तै लिपट गया।
4 And, when the natives saw the brute hanging out from his hand, they began to say, one to another—Doubtless, this man is, a murderer, whom, though brought safely through out of the sea, Justice, hath not suffered, to live.
जिब उन बासिन्दयां नै साँप ताहीं उसकै हाथ तै लिपटे होड़ देख्या, तो आप्पस म्ह कह्या, “साच्चए यो माणस खून्नी सै के फेर भी समुन्दर तै बच ग्या, तोभी न्याय नै जिन्दा कोनी रहण दिया।”
5 He, however, shaking of the brute into the fire, suffered no harm;
फेर उसनै साँप ताहीं आग म्ह झटक दिया, अर उस ताहीं किमे नुकसान कोनी होया।
6 whereas, they, were expecting, that he was about to become inflamed, or to fall down suddenly dead; —but, when they had been long expecting, and had observed, nothing unusual, happening unto him, they changed their minds, and began to say he was a god.
पर वे लोग बाट देक्खै थे के वो सूज जावैगा या चाणचक पड़कै मर जावैगा, पर जिब वे घणी वार ताहीं देखदे रहे अर देख्या के उसका किमे भी कोनी बिगड़या, तो अपणा विचार बदलकै कह्या, “यो तो कोए देवता सै।”
7 Now, in the neighbourhood of that place, were lands, belonging to the chief man of the island, by name Publius, —who, making us welcome, for three days, hospitably entertained us.
उस जगहां कै लोवै-धोवै उस टापू कै प्रधान पुबलियुस की धरती थी। उसनै म्हारै ताहीं अपणे घरां ले जाकै तीन दिन मित्तर की ढाळ सेवा-पाणी करी।
8 And it so happened that, the father of Publius, with feverish heats and dysentery distressed, was lying prostrate: unto whom Paul entering in and praying, laid his hands on him, and healed him.
पुबलियुस का बाप बुखार अर बवासीर तै बीमार पड्या था। आखर म्ह पौलुस नै उसकै धोरै कमरे म्ह जाकै प्रार्थना करी अर उसपै हाथ धरकै उस ताहीं ठीक करया।
9 And, when this happened, the rest also, even they in the island who were sick, were coming in and getting cured;
जिब इसा होया तो उस टापू के बाकी बीमार पौलुस कै धोरै आये अर वे चंगे करे गये।
10 who also, with many honours, honoured us, and, when we were about to sail, put on board such things as we might need.
उननै म्हारा घणा आदर-मान करया, अर जिब हम चाल्लण लाग्गे तो जो किमे म्हारै खात्तर जरूरी था, उननै जहाज पै धर दिया।
11 And, after three months, we sailed in a ship which had wintered in the island, [a ship] of Alexandria, whose ensign was The Twin Brothers;
तीन महिन्ने कै पाच्छै हमनै सिकन्दरिया जावण आळे जहाज पै सफर शरु करया, यो जहाज ठण्ड़ के कारण इस टापू म्ह ठैहरा होया था, इस जहाज के आगले भाग पै एक जोड़ी देवत्यां का एक निशान था। (दियुसकूरी गढ़ी होई थी)
12 and, touching at Syracuse, we tarried three days;
सुरकूसा नगर म्ह लंगर गेर कै हम तीन दिन टिके रहे।
13 whence, going round, we reached Rhegium; and, after one day, a south wind springing up, on the second day, we came to Puteoli;
ओड़ै तै आग्गै बढ़कै हम रेगियुम नगर म्ह आये, अर एक दिन कै पाच्छै दक्षिणी हवा चाल्ली, फेर हम दुसरे दिन पुतियुली नगर म्ह आये।
14 where, finding brethren, we were entreated to tarry, with them, seven days; —and, thus, towards Rome, we came.
ओड़ै हमनै बिश्वासी भाई मिले, उनकै कहणे तै हम उनकै उरै सात दिन ताहीं रहे, अर इस तरियां तै हम रोम देश कान्ही चाल्ले।
15 And, when from thence the brethren heard the tidings concerning us, they came to meet us, as far as The Market of Appius and the Three Taverns—seeing whom, Paul thanked God, and took courage.
कुछ बिश्वासी भाई रोम देश तै म्हारी खबर सुणकै अप्पियुस कै चौक अर तीन-सराए ताहीं म्हारै तै फेटण नै लिकड़ आये, जिन नै देखकै पौलुस नै परमेसवर का धन्यवाद करया अर बड़ा उत्साहित होया।
16 And, when we entered into Rome, Paul was suffered to abide by himself, with the soldier that guarded him.
जिब हम रोम नगर म्ह पोहचे, तो पौलुस ताहीं एक सिपाही कै गेल्या जो उसकी रुखाळी करै था, एक्ले रहण का हुकम मिलग्या।
17 And it came to pass, after three days, that he called together those who were the chief of the Jews; and, when they came together, he began to say unto them—I, brethren, though I had done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, as a prisoner, out of Jerusalem, was delivered into the hands of the Romans;
तीन दिन कै पाच्छै उसनै यहूदियाँ कै खास माणसां ताहीं बुलाया, अर जिब वे कठ्ठे होए तो उनतै कह्या, “हे भाईयो, मन्नै अपणे माणसां कै या बाप-दाद्या कै बीवारां कै बिरोध म्ह किमे भी कोनी करया, तोभी कैदी बणाकै यरुशलेम नगर तै रोमी सरकार कै हाथ्थां सौंप्या गया।
18 who, indeed, when they had examined me, were minded to set me at liberty, because there was, nothing worthy of death, in me.
उननै मेरै ताहीं जाँचकै छोड़ देणा चाह्या, क्यूँके मेरै म्ह मौत कै जोग्गा कोए कसूर कोनी था।
19 But, as the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar, —not as though, against my nation, I had anything to bring by way of accusation.
पर जिब यहूदी अगुवें इसकै बिरोध म्ह बोल्लण लाग्गे, तो मन्नै कैसर की दुहाई देणी पड़ी यो न्ही के मन्नै अपणे माणसां पै कोए दोष लाणा था।
20 For this cause, therefore, have I called for you, to see and to speak with you; for, on account of the hope of Israel, this chain, have I about me!
ज्यांतै मन्नै थारे ताहीं बुलाया सै के थारे तै मिलूं अर बतळाऊँ, क्यूँके इस्राएल की आस कै खात्तर वो मसीह इस बेल तै जकड़े होए सै।”
21 And, they, said unto him—We, have neither received letters concerning thee from the Jews, nor hath anyone of the brethren who hath arrived reported or spoken concerning thee, anything ill.
उननै उसतै कह्या, “ना हमनै तेरे बारै म्ह यहूदिया परदेस तै चिट्ठी पाई, अर ना बिश्वासी भाईयाँ म्ह तै किसे नै आकै तेरे बारै म्ह किमे बताया अर ना बुरा कह्या।
22 But we deem it well, that, from thee, we should hear what are thine opinions; for, indeed, concerning this sect, it is, known to us, that, everywhere, is it spoken against.
पर तेरा विचार के सै? वोए हम तेरे तै सुणणा चाहवां सां, क्यूँके हमनै बेरा सै के हरेक जगहां इस पंथ कै बिरोध म्ह माणस बात करै सै।”
23 And, having arranged with him a day, there came unto him, to the lodging, a larger number; unto whom he proceeded to expound, bearing full witness as to the kingdom of God, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses, and from the prophets, —from morning till evening.
फेर जो यहूदी पौलुस कै गैल थे, उननै उसकै खात्तर एक दिन ठहराया, अर घणे माणस उसकै उरै कठ्ठे होए, अर वो परमेसवर कै राज्य की गवाही देंदा होया, अर मूसा नबी के नियम-कायदे अर नबियाँ की किताबां तै यीशु कै बारै म्ह समझा-समझाकै सबेरै तै साँझ ताहीं वर्णन करदा रहया।
24 And, some, indeed, were persuaded by the things that were spoken, whereas, others, disbelieved;
फेर कुछां नै उन बात्तां ताहीं मान लिया, अर कुछां नै बिश्वास कोनी करया।
25 and, not being, agreed, among themselves, they began to leave, —Paul having said one thing—Well, did, the Holy Spirit, speak through Isaiah the prophet, unto your fathers,
जिब वे आप्पस म्ह एक पंथ कोनी होए, तो पौलुस की इस बात कै कहण पै चाल्ले गये “पवित्र आत्मा नै यशायाह नबी कै जरिये थारे बाप-दाद्या तै सही ए कह्या था,”
26 saying—Go thy way unto this people, and say—Ye shall, surely hear, and yet will in nowise understand. And, surely see, and yet will in nowise perceive;
“जाकै इन माणसां तै कह, के सुणदे तो रहोगे, पर ना समझोगे, देखदे तो रहोगे, पर ना बुझ्झोगे!
27 For the heart of this people, hath become dense, and, with their ears, heavily, have they heard, and, their eyes, have they closed, —lest once they should see with their eyes, and, with their ears, should hear, and, with their hearts, should understand, and return, —when I would certainly heal them.
क्यूँके ‘इन माणसां का मन मोट्टा अर उनके कान भारया हो गये सै, अर उननै अपणी आँख मूंद ली सै, इसा ना हो के वे कदे आँखां तै देक्खै अर कान्ना तै सुणै अर मन तै समझै अर पलटै, अर मै उन ताहीं ठीक करुँ।’
28 Be it, known unto you, therefore, that, unto the nations, hath been sent forth this salvation of God: they, will also hear.
“इस करकै थम जाणो सो के परमेसवर कै इस उद्धार की कथा गैर यहूदियाँ कै धोरै भेज्जी गयी सै, अर वे स्वीकार करैगें।”
जिब उसनै न्यू कह्या तो यहूदी आप्पस म्ह घणे बहस करण लाग्गे अर ओड़ै तै चले गये।
30 And he abode two whole years in his own hired house, and made welcome all who were coming in unto him, —
वो पूरे दो साल अपणे किराए कै घर म्ह रहया,
31 proclaiming the kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ, with all freedom of speech, without hindrance.
अर जो उसकै धोरै आवै थे, उन सारया तै मिलदा रहया अर बिना रोक-टोक घणा निडर होकै परमेसवर कै राज्य का प्रचार करदा अर प्रभु यीशु मसीह की बात सिखान्दा रहया।
