< Acts 8 >

1 Saul now was there consenting to the killing of him. Arose then on that [very] day a persecution great against the church which [was] in Jerusalem; All (then *N(k)O*) were scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria except the apostles.
शाऊल उसकै मारण म्ह सहमत था। उस्से दिन यरुशलेम नगर की कलीसिया म्ह घणा दंगा शरु होग्या अर प्रेरितां नै छोड़कै सारे के सारे यहूदिया अर सामरिया परदेस म्ह खिंड-मिंड होग्ये।
2 Buried now Stephen men devout and (they made *N(k)O*) lamentation great over him.
कुछ परमेसवर भगतां नै स्तिफनुस ताहीं कब्र म्ह धरया अर उसकै खात्तर घणा बिलाप करया।
3 Saul however was destroying the church by houses entering, dragging off then men and women he was delivering [them] to prison.
शाऊल कलीसिया नै सताण लागरया था, अर घर-घर म्ह बड़कै माणसां अर लुगाईयाँ ताहीं घिसड़ा-घिसड़ा कै जेळ म्ह गेरै था।
4 Those indeed therefore having been scattered they went about evangelising the word.
जो बिश्वासी खिंड-मिन्ड होए थे, वे सुसमाचार सुणान्दे होए हान्डे,
5 Philip now having gone down to (the *no*) city of Samaria was proclaiming to them the Christ.
अर फिलिप्पुस सामरिया परदेस के एक नगर म्ह जाकै माणसां म्ह मसीह का प्रचार करण लाग्या।
6 Were giving heed (now *N(k)O*) the crowds to the [things] being spoken by Philip with one accord in the [time] to hear them and to see the signs that he was performing;
जो बात फिलिप्पुस नै कही उन ताहीं आदमियाँ नै सुणकै अर जो चमत्कार वो दिखावै था उन ताहीं देख देखकै, एक चित्त होकै मन लगाया।
7 (many *N(k)O*) for of those having spirits unclean crying voice in a loud (were coming out, *N(k)O*) many now paralyzed and lame were healed;
क्यूँके घणखरयां म्ह तै भुंडी ओपरी आत्मा ठाड्डू आवाज म्ह किल्की मारदी होई लिकड़ग्यी, अर घणखरे लकवे के बीमार अर लंगड़े भी ठीक करे गये,
8 (and *k*) There was (then *no*) (much *N(k)O*) joy in the city that.
अर उस नगर म्ह घणी खुशी मनाई गई।
9 A man now certain named Simon was formerly in the city practicing sorcery and amazing the people of Samaria declaring to be someone himself great;
उस नगर म्ह शमौन नाम का एक माणस था, जो जादू-टोणा करकै सामरिया परदेस के आदमियाँ नै हैरान करदा अर खुद ताहीं एक बड्ड़ा माणस बतावै था।
10 to whom were giving heed all from small until great saying; This [one] is the power of God which (is called *NO*) Great.
छोट्या तै लेकै बड्डयाँ ताहीं सारे उसका आदर करकै कहवै थे, “यो माणस परमेसवर की वा शक्ति सै, जो महान् कुह्वावै सै।”
11 They were giving heed now to him because the long time with the magic arts to have amazed them;
उसनै घणे दिनां तै उन ताहीं अपणे जादू के काम्मां तै हैरान कर राख्या था, ज्यांतै वे उसकी घणी मान्नै थे।
12 When however they believed Philip evangelising (*k*) concerning the kingdom of God and the name (*k*) of Jesus Christ, they were baptized men both and women.
पर जिब माणसां नै परमेसवर के राज्य अर यीशु मसीह के नाम का सुसमाचार, फिलिप्पुस के संदेश म्ह सुण्या, तो सारे माणसां अर लुगाईयाँ नै बिश्वास करया अर सब नै बपतिस्मा ले लिया।
13 And Simon also himself believed, and having been baptized he was steadfastly continuing with Philip, Beholding then [the] signs and miracles great being performed he was amazed.
फेर शमौन नै खुद भी फिलिप्पुस के संदेश का बिश्वास करया अर बपतिस्मा लेकै उसकै गेल्या रहण लाग्या। वो चमत्कार अर बड़े-बड़े सामर्थ के काम होन्दे देखकै हैरान होवै था।
14 Having heard now the in Jerusalem apostles that has received Samaria the word of God, they sent to them (*k*) Peter and John;
जिब प्रेरितां नै जो यरुशलेम नगर म्ह थे, सुण्या के सामरिया परदेस के माणसां नै परमेसवर का वचन मान लिया सै तो पतरस अर यूहन्ना ताहीं उनकै धोरै भेज्या।
15 who having come down they prayed for them that they may receive [the] Spirit Holy.
उननै ओड़ै जाकै उनकै खात्तर प्रार्थना करी के पवित्र आत्मा पावै।
16 (Not yet *N(k)O*) for He was upon none of them having fallen, only however baptized they were being into the name of the (Lord *NK(O)*) Jesus.
क्यूँके वो इब ताहीं इन म्ह तै किसे पै भी कोनी उतरया था, उननै तो सिर्फ प्रभु यीशु कै नाम तै बपतिस्मा लिया था।
17 Then they were laying the hands upon them and they were receiving [the] Spirit Holy.
फेर प्रेरितां नै उनपै हाथ धरे अर उननै पवित्र आत्मा पाया।
18 (having seen *N(k)O*) now of Simon that through the laying on of the hands of the apostles was given the Spirit (holy *KO*) he offered to them money
जिब शमौन नै देख्या के प्रेरितां कै हाथ धरण तै पवित्र आत्मा दिया जावै सै, तो उनकै धोरै रपिये ल्याकै कह्या,
19 saying; do give also to me also to me authority this, that on whom (when *N(k)O*) I shall lay the hands he may receive [the] Spirit Holy.
“या शक्ति मन्नै भी द्यो, के जिस किसे पै हाथ धरुँ वो पवित्र आत्मा पावै।”
20 Peter however said to him; The silver of you with you would [that] it be to destruction, because the gift of God you thought through money to be obtained!
पतरस नै उसतै कह्या, “तेरे रपिये तेरे गेल्या नाश होज्या, क्यूँके तन्नै परमेसवर का दान रपियाँ तै मोल लेण का विचार करया।
21 No there is to you part nor lot in matter this; the for heart of you not is right (before *N(k)O*) God.
इस बात म्ह ना तेरा हिस्सा सै, ना हक, क्यूँके तेरा मन परमेसवर कै आग्गै सच्चा कोनी।
22 do repent therefore of the wickedness of yours this and do pray earnestly to the (Lord, *N(K)O*) if indeed will be forgiven you the intent of the heart of you.
इस करकै अपणी इस बुरी सोच नै छोड़कै प्रभु तै प्रार्थना कर, हो सकै सै वो तेरे मन का यो बुरा विचार माफ करदे।
23 in for [the] gall of bitterness and [the] bond of iniquity I see you being.
क्यूँके मै देक्खूँ सूं के तू कड़वाहट तै भरया सै अर पाप के चुंगल म्ह फँसा सै।”
24 Answering now Simon said; do pray earnestly you yourselves on behalf of me to the Lord, so that nothing may come upon me myself of which you have spoken.
शमौन नै जवाब दिया, “थम मेरै खात्तर प्रभु तै प्रार्थना करो के जो बात थमनै कही, उन म्ह तै कोए भी मेरै पै न्ही आवै।”
25 They indeed therefore having earnestly testified and having spoken the word of the Lord (were travelling back *N(k)O*) to Jerusalem, to many then villages of the Samaritans (they were evangelising. *N(k)O*)
आखर म्ह वे गवाही देकै प्रभु यीशु का वचन सुणाकै यरुशलेम नगर नै बोहड़गे, अर सामरिया के घणखरे गाम्मां म्ह सुसमाचार सुणान्दे गये।
26 An angel now of [the] Lord spoke to Philip saying; do rise up and do go toward [the] south to the road which is going down from Jerusalem to Gaza; This is [the] desert [road].
फेर प्रभु कै एक सुर्गदूत नै फिलिप्पुस तै कह्या, “उठ अर दक्षिण की ओड़ उस राह पै जा, जो यरुशलेम नगर तै गाज़ा नगर म्ह जावै सै।” यो बियाबान राह सै।
27 And having risen up he went; And behold a man an Ethiopian a eunuch a potentate of Candace (the *k*) queen of Ethiopians, who was over all the treasure of her, who had come to then worship to Jerusalem,
वो उठकै चल दिया, अर देक्खो, कूश देश का एक माणस आण लागरया था जो खोजा (किन्नर) अर कूशियों की राणी कन्दाके का मंत्री अर खजांची था। वो आराधना करण खात्तर यरुशलेम नगर म्ह आया था।
28 he was (then *NK(o)*) returning and sitting in the chariot of him and he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
वो अपणे रथ पै बेठ्या होया था, अर यशायाह नबी की किताब पढ़दा होया बोहड़ण लागरया था।
29 Said then the Spirit to Philip; do go near and do be joined to the chariot this [one].
फेर पवित्र आत्मा नै फिलिप्पुस ताहीं कह्या, “लोवै जाकै इस रथ कै गेल्या हो ले।”
30 Having run up then Philip heard when he is reading Isaiah the prophet and said; Surely not also understand you what you are reading?
फिलिप्पुस दौड़ कै रथ कै धोरै पोहचा अर उस ताहीं यशायाह नबी की किताब पढ़ते होए सुण्या, अर बुझ्झया, “तू जो पढ़ै सै, के उसनै समझै भी सै?”
31 And he said; How for maybe would I be able only unless someone (will guide *N(k)O*) me? He invited then Philip having come up to sit with him.
वो बोल्या, “जिब ताहीं कोए मेरै ताहीं न्ही समझावै तो मै किस ढाळ समझूँ।” अर फिलिप्पुस तै बिनती करी के वो रथ पै चढ़कै उसकै धोरै बेठ्ठै।
32 Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this: As a sheep to slaughter He was led, and as a lamb before the [one who] (shearing *N(k)O*) him [is] silent, so not He opens the mouth of Him.
पवित्र ग्रन्थ का जो पाठ वो पढ़ै था, वो यो था: “वो भेड़ की ढाळ मारण खात्तर पोहचाया गया, अर जिस तरियां मेम्‍ना अपणे ऊन काट्टण आळा कै स्याम्ही बोल-बाल्ला रहवै सै, उस्से तरियां ए उसनै भी अपणा मुँह कोनी खोल्या।”
33 In the humiliation of Him justice from Him was taken away, The (now *k*) generation of Him who will describe? For is removed from the earth the life of Him.
“उस ताहीं अपमानित करया गया अर उस ताहीं कोए न्याय न्ही मिल्या। उसकै बखत के माणसां का ब्यौरा कौण देवैगा? क्यूँके धरती तै उसका प्राण ठा लिया जावै सै।”
34 Answering now the eunuch to Philip said; I pray you, concerning whom the prophet says this? Concerning himself, or concerning other some?
इसपै खोजे (किन्नर) नै फिलिप्पुस तै बुझ्झया, “मै तेरे तै बिनती करुँ सूं, न्यू बता के नबी यो किसकै बारै म्ह कहवै सै, अपणे या किसे दुसरे कै बारै म्ह?”
35 Having opened then Philip the mouth of him and having begun from Scripture this he evangelised to him [about] Jesus.
फेर फिलिप्पुस नै बताणा शरु करया, अर इस्से पवित्र ग्रन्थ तै शरु करकै उस ताहीं यीशु का सुसमाचार सुणाया।
36 As then they were going along the road, they came upon some water and says the eunuch; Behold water; what prevents me to be baptized?
राह म्ह चाल्दे-चाल्दे वे किसे तालाब कै धोरै पोहचे। फेर खोजे नै कह्या, “लखा उरै पाणी सै, इब मन्नै बपतिस्मा लेण म्ह के रोक सै।”
37 (said now Philip: if believe you from all the heart it is lawful. answering now said: I believe the son of God to be Jesus Christ. *K*)
फिलिप्पुस बोल्या, “जै तू पूरे मन तै बिश्वास करै सै तो ले सकै सै।” उसनै जवाब दिया, “मै बिश्वास करुँ सूं के यीशु मसीह परमेसवर का बेट्टा सै।”
38 And he commanded to stop the chariot, And they went down both to the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him.
फेर उसनै रथ खड्या करण का हुकम दिया, अर फिलिप्पुस अर खोजा (किन्नर) दोन्नु तालाब म्ह बड़गे, अर उसनै खोजा (किन्नर) ताहीं बपतिस्मा दिया।
39 When now they came up out of the water, [the] Spirit of [the] Lord carried away Philip, and not saw him no longer no longer the eunuch; he was going for the way of him rejoicing.
जिब वे पाणी म्ह तै लिकड़कै ऊपरान आये, तो प्रभु का आत्मा फिलिप्पुस ताहीं ठा लेग्या, अर खोजे नै उस ताहीं दुबारा न्ही देख्या, अर वो खुश था क्यूँके परमेसवर नै उस ताहीं बचा लिया सै।
40 Philip however was found at Azotus, and passing through he was evangelising to the towns all until coming of him to Caesarea.
फिलिप्पुस अशदोद नगर म्ह आ लिकड़या, अर जिब ताहीं कैसरिया नगर म्ह न्ही पोंहच्या, तब तक नगर-नगर सुसमाचार सुणान्दा गया।
