Acts 14
1 At Iconium Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish meeting place and spoke very convincingly [about the Lord Jesus]. As a result, many Jews and also non-Jews believed [in Jesus].
தௌ த்³வௌ ஜநௌ யுக³பத்³ இகநியநக³ரஸ்த²யிஹூதீ³யாநாம்’ ப⁴ஜநப⁴வநம்’ க³த்வா யதா² ப³ஹவோ யிஹூதீ³யா அந்யதே³ஸீ²யலோகாஸ்²ச வ்யஸ்²வஸந் தாத்³ரு’ஸீ²ம்’ கதா²ம்’ கதி²தவந்தௌ|
2 But [some of] the Jews refused to believe [that message, and] told the non-Jews not to believe it. They told the non-Jewish people that the message [about Jesus] was not true. As a result, [some of] the non-Jews became angry towards the believers [there].
கிந்து விஸ்²வாஸஹீநா யிஹூதீ³யா அந்யதே³ஸீ²யலோகாந் குப்ரவ்ரு’த்திம்’ க்³ராஹயித்வா ப்⁴ராத்ரு’க³ணம்’ ப்ரதி தேஷாம்’ வைரம்’ ஜநிதவந்த: |
3 So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there speaking boldly for the Lord, and the Lord Jesus enabled them to do many miracles. In this way he showed [people] that the message about how the Lord saves us in a way that we do not deserve is true.
அத: ஸ்வாநுக்³ரஹகதா²யா: ப்ரமாணம்’ த³த்வா தயோ ர்ஹஸ்தை ர்ப³ஹுலக்ஷணம் அத்³பு⁴தகர்ம்ம ச ப்ராகாஸ²யத்³ ய: ப்ரபு⁴ஸ்தஸ்ய கதா² அக்ஷோபே⁴ந ப்ரசார்ய்ய தௌ தத்ர ப³ஹுதி³நாநி ஸமவாதிஷ்டே²தாம்’|
4 The people [who lived] in [Iconium] city strongly disagreed with each other [concerning the message about Jesus]. Some of them agreed with the Jews [SYN] [who did not believe that message]. Others agreed with Paul and Barnabas.
கிந்து கியந்தோ லோகா யிஹூதீ³யாநாம்’ ஸபக்ஷா: கியந்தோ லோகா: ப்ரேரிதாநாம்’ ஸபக்ஷா ஜாதா: , அதோ நாக³ரிகஜநநிவஹமத்⁴யே பி⁴ந்நவாக்யத்வம் அப⁴வத்|
5 Then the non-Jewish people and the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] [who opposed those two] talked among themselves about how they could mistreat them. Some of the important men in that city agreed to help them. Together, they decided that they would [kill Paul and Barnabas by] throwing stones at them.
அந்யதே³ஸீ²யா யிஹூதீ³யாஸ்தேஷாம் அதி⁴பதயஸ்²ச தௌ³ராத்ம்யம்’ குத்வா தௌ ப்ரஸ்தரைராஹந்தும் உத்³யதா: |
6 But Paul and Barnabas heard about that, so they quickly went away to Lycaonia [district. They went] to Lystra and Derbe [cities in that district] and to the area surrounding [those cities].
தௌ தத்³வார்த்தாம்’ ப்ராப்ய பலாயித்வா லுகாயநியாதே³ஸ²ஸ்யாந்தர்வ்வர்த்திலுஸ்த்ராத³ர்ப்³போ³
7 [While they were] in that area, they continually told people the message [about the Lord Jesus].
தத்ஸமீபஸ்த²தே³ஸ²ஞ்ச க³த்வா தத்ர ஸுஸம்’வாத³ம்’ ப்ரசாரயதாம்’|
8 [Once while Paul was preaching to people] in Lystra, a man was sitting there who was crippled in his legs. When [his mother] bore him he had crippled legs, so he was never able to walk.
தத்ரோப⁴யபாத³யோஸ்²சலநஸ²க்திஹீநோ ஜந்மாரப்⁴ய க²ஞ்ஜ: கதா³பி க³மநம்’ நாகரோத் ஏதாத்³ரு’ஸ² ஏகோ மாநுஷோ லுஸ்த்ராநக³ர உபவிஸ்²ய பௌலஸ்ய கதா²ம்’ ஸ்²ருதவாந்|
9 He listened as Paul was speaking [about the Lord Jesus]. Paul looked directly at him and could see [in the man’s face] that he believed that [the Lord Jesus] could make him well.
ஏதஸ்மிந் ஸமயே பௌலஸ்தம்ப்ரதி த்³ரு’ஷ்டிம்’ க்ரு’த்வா தஸ்ய ஸ்வாஸ்த்²யே விஸ்²வாஸம்’ விதி³த்வா ப்ரோச்சை: கதி²தவாந்
10 So Paul called out [to him], “Stand up!” [When the man heard that], he [immediately] jumped up and began to walk [normally].
பத்³ப்⁴யாமுத்திஷ்ட²ந் ரு’ஜு ர்ப⁴வ| தத: ஸ உல்லம்ப²ம்’ க்ரு’த்வா க³மநாக³மநே குதவாந்|
11 When the crowd saw what Paul had done, [they thought that Paul and Barnabas] [were/must be]) [the gods that they worshipped]. So they shouted [excitedly] in their [own] Lycaonia language, “[Look! These people are] the gods [that we(inc) worship! They] made themselves look like people and have come down [from the sky/heaven to help us]!”
ததா³ லோகா: பௌலஸ்ய தத் கார்ய்யம்’ விலோக்ய லுகாயநீயபா⁴ஷயா ப்ரோச்சை: கதா²மேதாம்’ கதி²தவந்த: , தே³வா மநுஷ்யரூபம்’ த்⁴ரு’த்வாஸ்மாகம்’ ஸமீபம் அவாரோஹந்|
12 They began to say that Barnabas was [probably the chief god, whose name was]. And [they began to say that] Paul was Hermes, [the messenger/spokesman for the other gods. They mistakenly thought that] because Paul was the one who had been speaking.
தே ப³ர்ணப்³பா³ம்’ யூபிதரம் அவத³ந் பௌலஸ்²ச முக்²யோ வக்தா தஸ்மாத் தம்’ மர்குரியம் அவத³ந்|
13 Just outside [the gates of] the city there was a temple [where the people worshipped Zeus. The priest who was there heard what Paul and Barnabas had done, so he came] to the city gate, where many people had already gathered. He brought [two] bulls with wreaths [of flowers around their necks]. The priest and the other people wanted to kill the bulls [as part of a ceremony] to worship Paul and Barnabas.
தஸ்ய நக³ரஸ்ய ஸம்முகே² ஸ்தா²பிதஸ்ய யூபிதரவிக்³ரஹஸ்ய யாஜகோ வ்ரு’ஷாந் புஷ்பமாலாஸ்²ச த்³வாரஸமீபம் ஆநீய லோகை: ஸர்த்³த⁴ம்’ தாவுத்³தி³ஸ்²ய ஸமுத்ஸ்ரு’ஜ்ய தா³தும் உத்³யத: |
14 But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard about that, [and understood that the people thought that they were gods and wanted to sacrifice the bulls to worship them], they [were very distressed], so they tore their own clothes. They rushed among the people, shouting,
தத்³வார்த்தாம்’ ஸ்²ருத்வா ப³ர்ணப்³பா³பௌலௌ ஸ்வீயவஸ்த்ராணி சி²த்வா லோகாநாம்’ மத்⁴யம்’ வேகே³ந ப்ரவிஸ்²ய ப்ரோச்சை: கதி²தவந்தௌ,
15 “Men, (you must not kill those bulls [to worship us(dl)!]/why are you doing this?) [RHQ] [We are not gods]! We are just human beings like you! We have come to tell you some good news! [We have come to tell you about] God who is all-powerful. He wants you to stop worshipping other gods, because they cannot help you. This true God made the heaven/sky and the earth and the oceans and everything in it.
ஹே மஹேச்சா²: குத ஏதாத்³ரு’ஸ²ம்’ கர்ம்ம குருத²? ஆவாமபி யுஷ்மாத்³ரு’ஸௌ² ஸுக²து³: க²போ⁴கி³நௌ மநுஷ்யௌ, யுயம் ஏதா: ஸர்வ்வா வ்ரு’தா²கல்பநா: பரித்யஜ்ய யதா² க³க³ணவஸுந்த⁴ராஜலநிதீ⁴நாம்’ தந்மத்⁴யஸ்தா²நாம்’ ஸர்வ்வேஷாஞ்ச ஸ்ரஷ்டாரமமரம் ஈஸ்²வரம்’ ப்ரதி பராவர்த்தத்⁴வே தத³ர்த²ம் ஆவாம்’ யுஷ்மாகம்’ ஸந்நிதௌ⁴ ஸுஸம்’வாத³ம்’ ப்ரசாரயாவ: |
16 In the past, all of you non-Jewish people [worshipped whatever gods that you wanted to]. God let you worship them, [because you did not know him].
ஸ ஈஸ்²வர: பூர்வ்வகாலே ஸர்வ்வதே³ஸீ²யலோகாந் ஸ்வஸ்வமார்கே³ சலிதுமநுமதிம்’ த³த்தவாந்,
17 But he has shown us [LIT] [that] he acts kindly [toward us(inc)]. He is the one who causes it to rain and causes crops to grow. He is the one who gives you plenty of food, and makes you very happy.”
ததா²பி ஆகாஸா²த் தோயவர்ஷணேந நாநாப்ரகாரஸ²ஸ்யோத்பத்யா ச யுஷ்மாகம்’ ஹிதைஷீ ஸந் ப⁴க்ஷ்யைராநநதே³ந ச யுஷ்மாகம் அந்த: கரணாநி தர்பயந் தாநி தா³நாநி நிஜஸாக்ஷிஸ்வரூபாணி ஸ்த²பிதவாந்|
18 The people heard what [Paul] said, but they still thought that they should sacrifice those bulls to worship Paul and Barnabas. [But finally, the people decided not to do it].
கிந்து தாத்³ரு’ஸா²யாம்’ கதா²யாம்’ கதி²தாயாமபி தயோ: ஸமீப உத்ஸர்ஜநாத் லோகநிவஹம்’ ப்ராயேண நிவர்த்தயிதும்’ நாஸ²க்நுதாம்|
19 [However], after that, some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and persuaded many of the people of Lystra [that the message Paul had been telling them] was not true. The people [who believed what those Jews said became angry with Paul. They let the Jews] throw stones at him [until he fell down, unconscious]. They [all] thought that he was dead, so they dragged him outside the city [and left him lying there]. But some of the believers [in Lystra had followed them outside the city].

20 They came and stood around Paul, [where he was lying on the ground]. And Paul [became conscious! He] stood up and went back into the city [with the believers]. Acts 14:20b-23 The next day, Paul and Barnabas [left Lystra and] traveled to Derbe.

21 They [stayed there several days and they kept telling] the people the good message [about Jesus]. Many people became believers. After that, Paul and Barnabas [started on their way back. They] went again to Lystra. [Then they went from there] to Iconium, and [then they went] to Antioch [in Pisidia province].
தத்ர ஸுஸம்’வாத³ம்’ ப்ரசார்ய்ய ப³ஹுலோகாந் ஸி²ஷ்யாந் க்ரு’த்வா தௌ லுஸ்த்ராம் இகநியம் ஆந்தியகி²யாஞ்ச பராவ்ரு’த்ய க³தௌ|
22 [In each city], they helped the believers [SYN] to become strong [spiritually], and they urged them to keep on trusting in [the Lord Jesus]. They told [the believers], “It is necessary that [we endure] people often persecuting us [(inc)] before we enter the place where God will rule [over us forever].”
ப³ஹுது³: கா²நி பு⁴க்த்வாபீஸ்²வரராஜ்யம்’ ப்ரவேஷ்டவ்யம் இதி காரணாத்³ த⁴ர்ம்மமார்கே³ ஸ்தா²தும்’ விநயம்’ க்ரு’த்வா ஸி²ஷ்யக³ணஸ்ய மந: ஸ்தை²ர்ய்யம் அகுருதாம்’|
23 Paul and Barnabas appointed leaders for each congregation. [And before Paul and Barnabas left each town, they gathered the believers together and spent some time] praying and (fasting/not eating any food). Then Paul and Barnabas entrusted the [leaders and other believers] to the Lord [Jesus], in whom they had believed, [in order that he would care for them].

24 After Paul and Barnabas had traveled through Pisidia [district], they went [south] to Pamphylia [district].
பிஸிதி³யாமத்⁴யேந பாம்பு²லியாதே³ஸ²ம்’ க³தவந்தௌ|
25 [In that district], they [arrived] at Perga and preached God’s message [about the Lord Jesus to the people there. Then] they went down [to the seacoast] at Attalia.
பஸ்²சாத் பர்கா³நக³ரம்’ க³த்வா ஸுஸம்’வாத³ம்’ ப்ரசார்ய்ய அத்தாலியாநக³ரம்’ ப்ரஸ்தி²தவந்தௌ|
26 There they got on a ship and went back to Antioch [in Syria province]. That was the place where Paul and Barnabas had been appointed {where [believers] had sent Paul and Barnabas} to go [to other places] and preach. [Antioch was the place where the believers] had asked God to kindly help Paul and Barnabas in the work that they had now completed.

27 When they arrived in Antioch, they called the believers together. Then Paul and Barnabas told them all that God had helped them to do. [Specifically, they told them how God] had enabled [IDM] [many] non-Jewish people to believe [in Jesus].
தத்ரோபஸ்தா²ய தந்நக³ரஸ்த²மண்ட³லீம்’ ஸம்’க்³ரு’ஹ்ய ஸ்வாப்⁴யாம ஈஸ்²வரோ யத்³யத் கர்ம்மகரோத் ததா² யேந ப்ரகாரேண பி⁴ந்நதே³ஸீ²யலோகாந் ப்ரதி விஸ்²வாஸரூபத்³வாரம் அமோசயத்³ ஏதாந் ஸர்வ்வவ்ரு’த்தாந்தாந் தாந் ஜ்ஞாபிதவந்தௌ|
28 Then Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch with the [other] believers for several months.
