Acts 13
1 Among [the people in] the congregation at Antioch there were (prophets/those who spoke messages from God) and those who taught [people about Jesus. They were] Barnabas; Simeon, who was also called Niger/Blackman; Lucius, from Cyrene [city]; Manaen, who had grown up with [King] Herod [Antipas]; and Saul.
| لە کڵێسای ئەنتاکیادا چەند پێغەمبەر و مامۆستایەک هەبوون: بەرناباس، شیمۆنی ناسراو بە ڕەش، لوکیوسی کورێنی، مەناینی شیربرای هێرۆدسی ئەنتیپاس پاشا، لەگەڵ شاول. |
2 While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said [to them], “Appoint Barnabas and Saul to [serve] me and to [go and do] the work that I have chosen them [to do]!”
| کاتێک عیسای خاوەن شکۆیان دەپەرست و بەڕۆژوو بوون، ڕۆحی پیرۆز فەرمووی: «بەرناباس و شاولم بۆ تەرخان بکەن، بۆ ئەو کارەی بانگم کردوون بۆی.» |
3 So they continued (to fast/to abstain from eating food) and pray. Then having put their hands on Barnabas and Saul and [praying that God would help them], they sent them off [to do what the Holy Spirit had commanded].
| ئینجا بەڕۆژوو بوون و نوێژیان کرد، دەستیان لەسەر دانان و بەڕێیانکردن. |
4 Barnabas and Saul, guided by the Holy Spirit, went down [from Antioch] to Seleucia [port]. From there they went by ship to Salamis [port on Cyprus Island].
| ئەوانیش کە بە ڕۆحی پیرۆز نێردران، بەرەو سولوکیا دابەزین و لەوێشەوە بە دەریادا بۆ قوبرس. |
5 While they were in Salamis, [they went] to the Jewish meeting places. There they proclaimed the message from God [about Jesus]. John [Mark went with them and] was helping them.
| کاتێک گەیشتنە سەلامیس، پەیامی خودایان لە کەنیشتەکانی جولەکە ڕاگەیاند، یۆحەناش وەک یاریدەدەر لەگەڵیان بوو. |
6 [The three of] them went across the entire island to Paphos [city]. There they met a magician whose name was Bar-Jesus. He was a Jew who falsely [claimed] (to be a prophet/to speak messages from God).
| بە هەموو دوورگەکەدا گەڕان هەتا گەیشتنە پافۆس. لەوێ تووشی جادووگەرێکی جولەکە بوون بە ناوی باریەشوع کە پێغەمبەرێکی درۆزن بوو. |
7 He often accompanied the governor [of the island], Sergius Paulus, who was an intelligent man. The governor sent [someone] to ask Barnabas and Saul to come to him, because he wanted to hear God’s message. [So Barnabas and Saul came and told him about Jesus].
| باریەشوع لەگەڵ سرگیۆس پۆڵسی فەرمانڕەوا بوو، کە پیاوێکی تێگەیشتوو بوو. سرگیۆس بەرناباس و شاولی بانگکرد، چونکە دەیویست گوێی لە پەیامی خودا بێت. |
8 However, the magician, whose name was Elymas [in the Greek language], was opposing them. He repeatedly tried to persuade the governor not to believe [in Jesus].
| بەڵام ئەلیماس کە جادووگەر واتای ناوەکەی بوو، بەربەرەکانێی کردن و هەوڵی دا فەرمانڕەوا لە باوەڕ لابدات. |
9 Then Saul, who now called himself Paul, empowered by the Holy Spirit, looked intently at the magician and said,
| کەچی شاول کە پۆڵسی پێ دەگوترا، پڕبوو لە ڕۆحی پیرۆز و تێیڕوانی و |
10 “You [(sg)] are serving the devil and you oppose everything that is good! You are always lying [to people] and doing [other] evil things to them. (You must stop saying that the truth about the Lord [God is a lot of lies!]/When will you stop changing what is true about the Lord [God and saying] what is not true about him?) [RHQ]
| گوتی: «ئەی پڕ لە هەموو جۆرە فرتوفێڵێک! کوڕی شەیتان! دوژمنی هەموو ڕاستودروستییەک! لە خوارکردنی ڕێگای ڕاستی یەزدان ناوەستی؟ |
11 Right now the Lord [God] [MTY] is going to punish you! You will become blind and not [even] be able to see light for [some] time.” At once he became [blind, as though he was] in a dark mist, and he groped about, searching for someone [to hold him by the] hand and lead him.
| ئەوەتا دەستی یەزدان لە دژی تۆیە و کوێر دەبیت، بۆ ماوەیەک خۆر نابینی.» دەستبەجێ تەم و تاریکی دایپۆشی و بەدوای یەکێکدا گەڕا تاکو دەستی بگرێت. |
12 When the governor saw what had happened [to Elymas], he believed [in the Lord Jesus]. He was amazed by [what Paul and Barnabas] were teaching about the Lord [Jesus].
| کاتێک فەرمانڕەواکە بینی چ ڕوویدا، باوەڕی هێنا، لە فێرکردنەکەی مەسیحی خاوەن شکۆ سەرسام بوو. |
13 [After that], Paul and the two men with him went by ship from Paphos to Perga [port] in Pamphylia [province. At Perga] John [Mark] left them and returned to [his home in] Jerusalem.
| پۆڵس و هاوڕێیانی بە دەریادا لە پافۆسەوە چوونە پەرگە لە پامفیلیا. بەڵام یۆحەنا لێیان جیا بووەوە و گەڕایەوە ئۆرشەلیم. |
14 Then Paul and Barnabas traveled [by land] from Perga, and arrived in Antioch [city] near Pisidia [district in Galatia province]. (On the Sabbath/On the Jewish rest day) they entered the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place and sat down.
| ئەوانیش بە پەرگەدا هاتنە ئەنتاکیای پیسیدیا، شەممەش چوونە کەنیشت و دانیشتن. |
15 [Someone] read [aloud] from what [Moses had written. Then someone read from what the other] prophets [had written] [MTY]. Then the leaders of the Jewish meeting place gave [someone this] note [to take] to Paul and Barnabas: “Fellow Jews, if [one of] you wants to speak to the people [here] to encourage them, please speak [to us(exc) now].”
| پاش خوێندنەوەی تەورات و پەڕتووکی پێغەمبەران، پێشەوایانی کەنیشتەکە پەیامیان نارد و پێیان گوتن: «برایان، ئەگەر شتێکتان هەیە گەلی پێ هانبدەن، بیڵێن.» |
16 So Paul stood up and motioned with his right hand [so that the people would listen to him]. Then he said, “Fellow Israelis and you [non-Jewish people] who [also] worship God, [please] listen [to me]!
| پۆڵس هەستا و بە دەست ئاماژەی کرد و گوتی: «پیاوانی ئیسرائیل و ئەو ناجولەکانەی کە لە خودا دەترسن، گوێ بگرن: |
17 God, whom we [(inc)] Israelis worship, chose our ancestors [to be his people], and he caused them to become very numerous while they were foreigners living in Egypt. [Then after many years], God helped them [MTY] powerfully and led them out of there.
| خودای ئەم گەلەی ئیسرائیل باوباپیرانی ئێمەی هەڵبژارد و لە کاتی ئاوارەبوونیان لە خاکی میسردا کردنی بە گەلێکی مەزن، ئینجا بە بازووێکی بەهێز لەوێ دەریهێنان. |
18 [Even though they repeatedly disobeyed him, he] cared for them for about 40 years [while they were] in the desert.
| نزیکەی چل ساڵیش لە چۆڵەوانی بەرگەی ڕەفتاری ئەوانی گرت، |
19 He [enabled the Israelis] to conquer seven tribal groups [who were then living] in Canaan [region], and he gave their land to us Israelis for us to possess.
| ئینجا حەوت نەتەوەی لە خاکی کەنعان لەناوبرد و خاکەکەیانی بە میرات پێدان. |
20 [Our ancestors began to possess Canaan] about 450 years after [their ancestors had arrived in Egypt].” Acts 13:20b-22 “After that, God appointed leaders [to rule the Israeli people. Those leaders continued to rule our people] until the time when the prophet Samuel [ruled them].
| ئەمە هەمووی نزیکەی چوار سەد و پەنجا ساڵی خایاند. «لەدوای ئەمە خودا دادوەری بۆ دانان هەتا سەردەمی ساموئێل پێغەمبەر. |
21 Then, [while Samuel was still their leader], the people demanded that he [appoint] a king [to rule them. So] God appointed Saul, the son of Kish, from the tribe of Benjamin, [to be their king]. He [ruled them] for 40 years.
| ئینجا نەوەی ئیسرائیل داوای پاشایان کرد، خوداش لە تیرەی بنیامین، شاولی کوڕی قیشی پێدان، کە بۆ ماوەی چل ساڵ پاشایەتی کردن. |
22 After God had rejected Saul [from being king], he appointed David to be their king. God said about him, ‘I have observed that David, son of Jesse, is exactly the kind of man that I desire [IDM]. He will do [everything that] I want [him to do].’”
| پاشان لایبرد و داودی کردە پاشایان، ئەوەی شایەتی بۆ دا و فەرمووی: [داودی کوڕی یەسام دۆزییەوە، پیاوێکە بە دڵی خۆم، ئەوەی هەموو خواستی من جێبەجێ دەکات.] |
23 “From [among] David’s descendants, God brought one of them, Jesus, to [us] Israeli people to save us, just like he had told [David and our other ancestors] that he would do.
| «خودا بەگوێرەی بەڵێنەکەی، عیسای ڕزگارکەری لە نەوەی ئەوەوە بۆ ئیسرائیل هێنا. |
24 Before Jesus began his work, John [the Baptizer] preached to all of our Israeli people [who came to him. He told them] that they should turn away from their sinful behavior [and ask God to forgive them. Then he] would baptize them.
| پێش هاتنی عیسا، یەحیا لەئاوهەڵکێشانی تۆبەی بۆ هەموو گەلی ئیسرائیل ڕاگەیاند. |
25 When John was about to finish the work [that God gave him to do], he frequently said [to the people], ‘Do you think [RHQ] that I am [the Messiah whom God promised to send]? No, I am not. But listen! The Messiah will [soon] come. [He is so much greater than I am that] I am not [even] important enough to be his slave [MET].’”
| کاتێک یەحیا خەریک بوو ئەرکەکەی تەواو دەکرد، گوتی:”وا دەزانن من کێم؟ ئەو نیم. ئەوەتا ئەوەی لەدوای من دێت، ئەوەی من شایانی ئەوە نیم کە قەیتانی پێڵاوەکانی بکەمەوە.“ |
26 “Fellow Israelis, you who are descendants of Abraham, and [you non-Jewish people who] also worship God, [please listen! It is] to [all of] us that [God] has sent the message about [how he] saves people.
| «خەڵکینە، برایان، کوڕانی پشتی ئیبراهیم و ئەو ناجولەکانەی لەنێوتاندا لە خودا دەترسن، پەیامی ئەم ڕزگارییە بۆ ئێمە نێردراوە. |
27 The people who were living in Jerusalem and their rulers did not realize that this man [Jesus was the one whom God had sent to save them]. Although messages from [MTY] the prophets have been read [aloud] {someone has read [aloud] messages from [MTY] the prophets} every (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest), they did not understand [what the prophets wrote about the Messiah. So] the [Jewish leaders] condemned Jesus [to die], which was just like the prophets predicted.
| دانیشتووانی ئۆرشەلیم و ڕابەرەکانیان مەسیحیان نەناسی، کەچی کاتێک تاوانباریان کرد وتەی پێغەمبەرانیان هێنایە دی کە هەموو شەممەیەک دەخوێنرێتەوە. |
28 [Many people accused Jesus of doing wicked things], but they could not prove that he had done anything for which he deserved to die. They insistently asked Pilate [the governor] to command that Jesus be executed {to command soldiers to execute Jesus}. [So Pilate did what they asked him to do].
| جا لەگەڵ ئەوەی هیچ هۆیەکیان بۆ مردن نەدۆزییەوە، داوایان لە پیلاتۆس کرد بیکوژێت. |
29 They did [to Jesus] all the things that [the prophets long ago had] written [that people would do to] him. [They killed Jesus by nailing him to a cross. Then] his body was taken {[some people took] his body} down from the cross and placed it in a tomb.
| دوای ئەوەی هەموو ئەو شتانەیان تەواو کرد کە لەسەری نووسراوە، لە دار هێنایانە خوارەوە و خستیانە گۆڕ. |
30 However, God (raised him from the dead/caused him to live again after he had died)
| بەڵام خودا لەنێو مردووان هەڵیستاندەوە، |
31 and for many days he [repeatedly] appeared to [his followers] who had come along with him from Galilee [province] to Jerusalem. Those [who saw him] are telling the [Jewish] people about him now.”
| ماوەیەکی درێژیش بۆ ئەوانە دەرکەوت کە لە جەلیلەوە هەتا ئۆرشەلیم لەگەڵیدا هاتبوون. ئێستا ئەوان لەبەردەم گەل شایەتی ئەمە دەدەن. |
32 “[Right] now we [two] are proclaiming to you this good message. We want to tell you that God has fulfilled what he promised to [our Jewish] ancestors!
| «ئێمەش مزگێنیی ئەو بەڵێنەتان پێدەدەین کە بۆ باوباپیرانمان هات، |
33 He has now done that for us [(inc) who are] their descendants, [and also for you who are not Jews], by causing Jesus to live again. That is just like what [David] wrote in the second Psalm that [God said when he was sending his Son], You [(sg)] are my Son; Today I have shown everyone [that I really am] your Father.
| ئەوەی خودا بۆ ئێمەی هێنایە دی کە وەچەی ئەوانین، بە هەستانەوەی عیسا. وەک لە زەبووری دووەمدا نووسراوە: «[تۆ کوڕی منی، من ئەمڕۆ بوومە باوکت.] |
34 [God] has (raised [the Messiah] from the dead/caused [the Messiah] to live again after he had died) and will never let him die again. [Concerning that, God] said [to our Jewish ancestors], ‘I will surely help you, as I [promised] David [that I would do].’
| خودا ئاوا دەفەرموێت سەبارەت بەوەی لەنێو مردووان هەڵیستاندەوە بۆ ئەوەی هەرگیز نەڕزێت: [ئەو بەڵێنە پیرۆز و مسۆگەرەتان دەدەمێ کە بە داودم دابوو.] |
35 So [in writing] another [Psalm, David] said this [to God about the Messiah]: ‘Because I am devoted to you and always obey [you, when I die] you [(sg)] will not let my body decay.’
| بۆیە لە زەبوورێکی دیکە دەفەرموێ: [ڕێگا نادەیت دڵسۆزەکەی تۆ لەناو گۆڕ بۆگەن بێت.] |
36 While David was living, he did what God wanted him to do. And when he died [EUP], his [body] was buried, [as] his ancestors’ [bodies had been buried], and his body decayed. [So he could not have been speaking about himself in this Psalm].
| «چونکە داود دوای ئەوەی بەگوێرەی مەبەستی خودا خزمەتی نەوەی خۆی کرد، نوست و چووە پاڵ باوباپیرانی و تەرمەکەی بۆگەن بوو. |
37 [Instead, he was speaking about Jesus. Jesus also died], but God (raised him from the dead/caused him to live again), and [therefore] his body did not decay.”
| بەڵام ئەوەی خودا هەڵیستاندەوە بۆگەنی نەبینی. |
38 “Therefore, [my] fellow Israelis [and other friends], it is important for you to know that [we(exc)] are declaring to you [that God] can forgive you for your sins as a result of [what] Jesus [has done]. Because of [what] Jesus [has done], [God] considers that everyone who believes [in Jesus] is no longer guilty (OR, the record has been erased {[God] has erased the record}) concerning everything that they [have done that displeased God. But] when [God] does [that for you], it is not as a result of [your obeying] the laws [that] Moses [wrote].
| «بۆیە برایان، با لەلاتان زانراو بێت کە لە ڕێگەی عیساوە بەخشینی گوناه بە ئێوە ڕاگەیەنرا. |
| بە باوەڕهێنان بە ئەو بێتاوان دەکرێن لە هەموو ئەو شتانەی نەتانتوانی بە تەوراتی موسا لێی بێتاوان بکرێن. |
40 Therefore be careful that [God] does not judge you [MTY], as one of the prophets said [MTY] that God would do!
| جا ئاگاداربن، ئەوەی پێغەمبەران گوتوویانە بەسەرتاندا نەیەت: |
41 [The prophet wrote that God said], You who ridicule [me], you will [certainly] be astonished [when you see what I am doing], and [then] you will be destroyed. You will be astonished because I will do something [terrible to you] while you are living. You would not believe [that I would do that] even though someone told you!”
| «[ئەی گاڵتەجاڕەکان سەیر بکەن، سەرسام بن و بمرن، چونکە لە سەردەمی ئێوەدا کارێک دەکەم، کارێک کە هەرگیز باوەڕ ناکەن ئەگەر بۆتان باس بکرێت.]» |
42 After Paul [finished speaking], while he and Barnabas were leaving the Jewish meeting place, [many of] the people there repeatedly requested that on the next (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) [the two of them] should speak to them [again] about those things [that Paul had just told them].
| کاتێک پۆڵس و بەرناباس لە کەنیشت دەهاتنە دەرەوە، داوایان لێ کرا شەممەی داهاتووش ئەم قسانەیان بۆ بکەن. |
43 After they began to leave [that meeting], many [of them] went along with Paul and Barnabas. They consisted of Jews and also of non-Jews who had accepted the things that the Jews believe. Paul and Barnabas continued talking to them, and were urging them to continue [believing the message that] God kindly [forgives people’s sins because of what Jesus did].
| دوای کۆبوونەوەکە، زۆر لە جولەکە و خواپەرستەکان کە ببوونە جولەکە، بەدوای پۆڵس و بەرناباس کەوتن، ئەمانیش قسەیان بۆ دەکردن و هانیان دەدان لە نیعمەتی خودا بمێنن. |
44 On the next Jewish rest day, most of the [people in Antioch came to] the Jewish meeting place to hear [Paul and Barnabas] speak about the Lord [Jesus].
| لە ڕۆژی شەممەی داهاتوودا نزیکەی هەموو دانیشتووانی شارەکە کۆبوونەوە، تاکو گوێ لە پەیامی مەسیحی خاوەن شکۆ بگرن. |
45 But [the leaders of] [SYN] the Jews became extremely jealous, because they saw that large crowds of [non-Jewish people were coming to hear Paul and Barnabas. So] they began to contradict the things that Paul was saying [and also] to insult [him].
| کاتێک جولەکە خەڵکەکەیان بینی، ئیرەیی دایگرتن و بەربەرەکانێی قسەکانی پۆڵسیان دەکرد و جنێویان پێدەدا. |
46 Then, speaking very boldly, Paul and Barnabas said [to those Jewish leaders], “[We two] had to speak the message from God [about Jesus] to you [Jews] first [before we proclaim it to non-Jews, because God commanded us to do that. But] you are rejecting God’s message. [By doing that], you have shown that you are not worthy (to have eternal life/to live eternally [with God]). [Therefore], we are leaving [you, and now we] will go to the non-Jewish people [to tell them the message from God]. (aiōnios g166)
| پۆڵس و بەرناباسیش بە چاونەترسییەوە وەڵامیان دانەوە: «پێویست بوو یەکەم جار پەیامی خودا بۆ ئێوە باس بکەین. بەڵام لەبەر ئەوەی ڕەتتان کردەوە و خۆتان بە شیاوی ژیانی هەتاهەتایی نەزانی، ئەوەتا دەچینە لای ناجولەکەکان، (aiōnios g166) |
47 [We are doing that also] because the Lord [God] has commanded us [to do it]. He said to us, ‘I have appointed you [to reveal things about me] to non-Jewish people [MET] that will be [like] a light to them. [I have appointed] you to tell people everywhere [MTY] in the world [about the one who came] to save [them].’”
| چونکە مەسیحی باڵادەست بەم جۆرە ڕایسپاردین: «[من تۆم کردووەتە ڕووناکی بۆ نەتەوەکان، تاکو ڕزگاری بەوپەڕی زەوی بگەیەنیت.]» |
48 While the non-Jewish people were listening [to those words], they began to rejoice, and they repeatedly said that the message about the Lord [Jesus] was wonderful. And all of the non-Jewish people whom [God] had chosen (to have eternal [life/to live eternally with God]) believed [the message about the Lord Jesus]. (aiōnios g166)
| کاتێک ناجولەکەکان گوێیان لەمە بوو، زۆر دڵشاد بوون و پەیامی مەسیحی خاوەن شکۆیان شکۆدار کرد، هەموو ئەوانەش کە بۆ ژیانی هەتاهەتایی دەستنیشان کرابوون، باوەڕیان هێنا. (aiōnios g166) |
49 [At that time, many of the believers] traveled around throughout that region. As they did that, they were proclaiming the message about the Lord [Jesus] [MTY].
| پەیامی مەسیحی خاوەن شکۆ لە هەموو ناوچەکەدا بڵاو بووەوە. |
50 However, [some leaders of] [SYN] the Jews incited the most important men in the city, and [some] important/influential women who had accepted what the Jews believe, to oppose [Paul and Barnabas. So those non-Jewish people] incited [other people also] to persecute Paul and Barnabas. As a result they expelled the two men from their region.
| بەڵام ڕابەرانی جولەکە خانمە ڕێزدارە لەخواترسەکان و پیاوماقوڵانی شاریان جۆشدا، چەوساندنەوەیان لە دژی پۆڵس و بەرناباس بەرپا کرد و لە سنوورەکانی خۆیان دەریانکردن. |
51 So, [as the two apostles were leaving, they] shook the dust from their feet [to show those Jewish leaders that God had rejected them and would punish them. They left Antioch] and went to Iconium [city].
| ئەوانیش تۆزی پێیان تەکاند و بەرەو شاری کۆنیا ڕۆیشتن. |
52 Meanwhile, the believers [in Antioch] continued to rejoice greatly, and they continued to be completely controlled by the Holy Spirit.
| قوتابییەکانیش پڕدەبوون لە خۆشی و ڕۆحی پیرۆز. |
