Acts 23
1 And when Paul had looked on the assembly of them, he said: Men, my brethren; I have lived in all good conscience before God up to this day.
Pawl ni sanhedrin lawkcengkungnaw hah takuetluet a khet teh, hmaunawnghanaw, kai teh atu totouh ka tawksak e dawk kahawi e thoehawi panuenae lungthin hoi Cathut hmalah a thoung, ati pouh.
2 And Ananias, the priest, commanded those who stood by his side, to smite Paul on the mouth.
Hatnavah vaihma kacue Ananias ni a teng ka kangdout e taminaw koe, Pawl e a pahni tambei pouh awh telah kâ a poe.
3 And Paul said to him: God is here-after to smite thee, thou Whited Wall! For, sittest thou judging me agreeably to law, while thou transgressest the law, and commandest to smite me?
Pawl nihai, ka pangaw hluk e tangkom, Cathut ni nama na hem han atipouh. Nang ni kai heh tahung laihoi kâlawk patetlah lawk na ceng nahlangva vah, kâlawk na tapoe teh kai hem hanelah kâ na poe maw, atipouh.
4 And those standing by, said to him: Dost thou reproach the priest of God!
Ateng ka kangdout e naw nihai, nang ni Cathut e vaihma kacue na dudam, ati pouh awh.
5 Paul said to them: I was not aware, my brethren, that he was the priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not curse the ruler of thy people.
Pawl nihai, hmaunawnghanaw, ahni hah vaihma kacue tie ka panuek hoeh, Cakathoung ni na miphun ka ukkungnaw na pathoe mahoeh telah a dei, atipouh.
6 And, as Paul knew that a part of the people were of the Sadducees, and a part of the Pharisees, he cried out, in the assembly: Men, my brethren; I am a Pharisee the son of a Pharisee; and for the hope of the resurrection of the dead, I am judged.
Pawl ni haw kaawm e tami atangawn teh Sadusinaw, alouknaw teh Farasinaw tie a panue dawkvah, hmaunawnghanaw kai teh Farasi buet touh lah ka o. Farasi e a capa lahai ka o. Kai teh kadoutnaw boutthawnae ngaihawinae kecu dawk hoi akungkhei e lah ka o telah sanhedrin lawkcengnae hmalah hram laihoi a dei.
7 And when he had said this, the Pharisees and Sadducees fell upon one another, and the people were divided
Hottelah Pawl ni a dei torei teh, Farasinaw hoi Sadusinaw hai lawk apap awh teh, kahni touh lah a kâkapek awh.
8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor angels, nor a spirit: but the Pharisees confess all these.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Sadusinaw ni boutthawnae awmhoeh, kalvantami awmhoeh, muitha awmhoeh telah ati awh. Farasinaw ni teh hotnaw koung ao telah a yuem awh.
9 And there was great vociferation. And some Scribes of the party of the Pharisees rose up, and contended with them, and said. We have found nothing evil in this man: for if a spirit or an angel hath conversed with him, what is there in that?
Hahoi, hoe a hram awh teh Farasinaw koe e cakathutkungnaw bangpatet ni a kangdue awh teh, ahni koe a yonnae tica hai ka hmawt awh hoeh, Muitha nahoeh pawiteh, kalvantami buetbuet touh ni a dei pouh thai, telah a oun awh.
10 And, as there was great commotion among them, the Chiliarch was afraid lest they should tear Paul in pieces. And he sent Romans, to go and pluck him from their midst, and bring him into the castle.
Hoe kâounnae ao dawkvah ransabawi ni, Pawl hah vekrasen lah sawn a langvaih ati dawkvah, ransanaw koe Pawl hah amamae ransaim imthung lah a ceikhai hane kâ a poe.
11 And when night came, our Lord appeared to Paul, and said to him: Be strong; for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so also art thou to testify at Rome.
Hatnae tangmin lah Pawl koe Bawipa a kangdue teh, lakueng hanh, Jerusalem vah kaie ka kong na kampangkhai e patetlah, Rom kho hai na kampangkhai han atipouh.
12 And when it was morning, several of the Jews assembled together, and bound themselves by imprecations that they would neither eat nor drink until they had slain Paul.
Khodai toteh Judahnaw ni kho a khan awh teh, Pawl thei hoe roukrak banghai canei hoeh hanelah thoe a kâbo awh.
13 And they who had established this compact by oath, were more than forty persons.
Hottelah arulah ka kâdei e naw, abuemlah tami 40 touh hlai a pha awh.
14 And they went to the priests and Elders, and said: We have bound ourselves by imprecations, that we will taste of nothing, until we shall have slain Paul.
Ahnimouh ni vaihma bawinaw hoi kacuenaw koe a cei awh teh, kaimouh ni Pawl ka thei awh hoeh roukrak banghai ka cat a mahoeh, telah thoe ka kâbo awh toe.
15 And now, do ye and the chiefs of the congregation request of the Chiliarch, that he would bring him unto you, as if ye were desirous to investigate truly his conduct: and we are prepared to slay him, ere he shall come to you.
Hatdawkvah nangmouh hoi sanhedrin lawkcengkungnaw ni ahnie a kong kahawicalah pacei han na ngai awh e patetlah ka sak vaiteh nangmouh koe Pawl a hrawi awh thai nahan Rom ransabawi koe thaisak awh. Hi a pha hoehnahlan thei hanlah coungkacoelah ka o awh han, atipouh.
16 And the son of Paul's sister, heard of this plot: and he went into the castle, and informed Paul.
Hote kho a khangnae hah Pawl e tawncanu e a capa ni a thai navah thongim thung a kâen teh Pawl koe a dei pouh.
17 And Paul sent and called one of the centurions, and said to him: Conduct this youth to the Chiliarch; for he hath something to tell him.
Hatnavah Pawl ni ransabawi buet touh a kaw teh, ransabawi koevah hete nawsai ni lawk dei hane a tawn dawkvah, ahni hah ransabawi kalen koe cetkhai haw atipouh.
18 And the centurion took the young man, and introduced him to the Chiliarch, and said: Paul the prisoner called me, and requested me to bring this youth to thee, for he hath something to tell thee.
Ransabawi ni a ceikhai teh ransabawi kalen koe a thokhai. Thongkabawt e Pawl ni, kai hah na kaw teh, hete nawsai ni nang koe hrawi hanelah a kâhei. Ahni ni nang koe lawk dei hane ao atipouh.
19 And the Chiliarch took the young man by his hand, and led him one side, and asked him: What hast thou to tell me?
Ransabawi ni hote nawsai e kut a kuet pouh teh, aloukcalah a kaw teh, kai koe na dei hane lawk teh bangmaw atipouh.
20 And the young man said to him: The Jews have projected to ask thee to bring down Paul to-morrow to their assembly, as if wishing to learn something more from him.
Hote nawsai ni, Judahnaw ni Pawl hah, hoe kamceng lah pacei hane boiboe lah a kâsak awh teh, tangtho vah sanhedrin lawkcengnae koe kaw hanelah nang koe kâhei hanelah a kâcai awh.
21 But be not thou persuaded by them: for, lo, more than forty persons of them watch for him in ambush, and have bound themselves by imprecations, that they will neither eat nor drink until they shall have slain him: and lo, they are prepared, and are waiting for thy promise
Hatei ahnimae lawk tang pouh hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh ahnimouh thung dawk tami 40 touh hlai ni arulah hoi Pawl hah a pawp awh. Pawl ka thei awh hoehroukrak ka catnet a mahoeh ati awh teh, thoe a kâbo awh. Atu patenghai coungkacoe lah ao awh teh, bawipa, nange lawk doeh a ring awh toe atipouh.
22 And the Chiliarch dismissed the young man, after charging him: Let no man know, that thou hast showed me these things.
Ransabawi ni, hete kongnaw kai koe na dei e heh api koehai dei pouh hanh lah atipouh teh hote nawsai hah bout a ban sak.
23 And he called two centurions, and said to them: Go and prepare two hundred Romans to go to Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and shooters with the right hand two hundred; and let them set out at the third hour of the night.
Hathnukkhu, ransabawi kalen e ni ransabawi kahni touh a kaw teh, Kaisarea cei hanelah ransa cumhni touh sut kârakueng awh. Hahoi marangransanaw 70 touh, tahroe ka patuem thai e cumhni touh hai kârakuengkhai awh nateh, atu tangmin suimilam tako nah kamthaw hanlah sut kârakueng awh.
24 And provide also a saddle beast, that they may set Paul on it, and carry him safely to Felix the governor.
Pawl kâcui nahanelah marang sut hmoun pouh awh. Khobawi Felik koe kahawicalah phatkhai awh telah lawk a thui.
25 And he wrote a letter and gave them, in which was, thus:
Hathnukkhu ransabawi ni ca a thut teh telah a patawn.
26 Claudius Lysias to the excellent governor Felix; greeting.
Klaudias Lisias ni khobawi Felik koevah ca na patawn. Nang koevah hnâroumnae awmseh.
27 The Jews seized this man, in order to kill him; but I came with Romans, and rescued him, when I learned that he was a Roman.
Judahnaw ni hete tami heh a man awh teh thei han toe ati awh navah, ahni teh Rom tami doeh tie ka panue toteh ransanaw hoi ka rungngang awh.
28 And as I wished to know the offence, for which they criminated him, I brought him to their assembly.
Yon a hnei awh e hah bangne tie panue han ka ngai dawkvah, sanhedrin lawkcengnae hmalah ka kaw navah,
29 And I found, that it was about questions of their law they accused him, and that an offence worthy of bonds or of death, was not upon him.
ahni teh amamae kâlawk hoi kâkuen e kamcan hoi yon a pen awh teh, duekhai kawi hoehpawiteh, thongim kamungkhai kawi yonnae a tawn tie ka hmawt hoeh.
30 And when the wiles of a plot formed by the Jews against him came to my knowledge, I forthwith sent him to thee. And I have directed his accusers, to go and contend with him, before thee. Farewell.
Hatei, Judah tami tangawn ni ahni thei hanelah a kâcai awh tie ka thai dawkvah nang koe karanglah ka thak. Yon kapen e naw hai nang na hmalah a dei awh nahanelah kâ ka poe toe.
31 Then the Romans, as they had been commanded, took Paul by night, and brought him to the city of Antipatris.
Hat toteh, ransabawi ni kâ a poe e patetlah Pawl hah Antipatris kho totouh karum vah a thak awh.
32 And the next day, the horsemen dismissed the footmen their associates, that they might return to the castle.
Atangtho teh marangransanaw ni pou a ceikhai awh. Alouknaw teh a ban awh.
33 And they brought him to Caesarea: and they delivered the letter to the governor, and set Paul before him.
Kaisarea totouh a ceikhai awh teh, khobawi koe, ca a poe awh teh, Pawl hai ama kut dawk a poe awh.
34 And when he had read the letter, he asked him of what province he was? And when he learned that he was of Cilicia,
Khobawi ni ca a touk teh Pawl teh nâ ram e maw telah a pacei. Cilicia dawk e doeh tie a panue hoi teh,
35 he said to him: I will give thee audience, when thy accusers arrive. And he ordered him to be kept in the Praetorium of Herod.
na katoekungnaw a tho torei vah, nange lai teh na ceng pouh han telah a titeh, Pawl hah Herod siangpahrang im vah khoup ring awh telah ransanaw kâ a poe.
