< Acts 18 >
1 After that, Paul left Athens [city] and went to Corinth [city].
Maniyere hakon P'awlos Atenitse tuut K'orontosi bíami,
2 There he met a Jew whose name was Aquila, who grew up in Pontus [province]. Aquila and his wife Priscilla had recently come from [Rome, in] Italy. [They had previously left Rome] because Claudius, [the Roman Emperor], had ordered that all the Jews must leave Rome. Paul later went to see Aquila and Priscilla.
Manoke P'ant'os datsatse shuwek wottso Ak'ili eteetso Ayhudi ash iko b́daatsi, Rom naashi naasho K'elawudiwos Ayhudi jamo Romitse bokeshetuwok'o azazat b́ teshtsotse Ak'il b́ máátsu P'rsk'lntoon It'aaliyitse manoora b́waa, mann P'awlos book amt bonton b́daneyi,
3 Those two made tents [to earn] ([money/a living]). Paul also made tents, so he stayed with them, and they all worked together.
B́fiino ari bokok'o dunkani shipo b́teshtsotse bonton towaat beedek'tn b́fiinefo.
4 Every Sabbath, Paul [went] to the Jewish meeting place, where he spoke forcefully to both Jews and non-Jews. He repeatedly tried to persuade them [that Jesus is the Messiah].
Sanbati aaw aawonowere ayhudiwots Ik' k'oni mootse datseyar mooyr ayhudiwotsnat Grik dats ashuwots keewman bo dek'etwok'o b́wooshfoni.
5 Then Silas and Timothy arrived there from Macedonia province. After they arrived, Paul [did not make tents any more. He] used all his time preaching [the message about Jesus in the Jewish meeting place]. He continued to tell the Jews [that] the Messiah they had been waiting for was Jesus.

6 But the Jews began to oppose Paul and to say evil things about him. So he shook [the dust from] his clothes [to show them that they were displeasing God. Then] he said to them, “If God punishes you, it will be your [SYN] own fault [MTY], not mine! From now on I will go [and preach] to non-Jewish people!”
Ernmó bín k'efat boc'ashor b́ tahatsi k'úndo tebatt «Eshe itats angsheyal it took t'afiyonee! taan bítse aateratse, haniyak Ik' ash woterawwotsok k'ay ametuwe!» bí eti.
7 So Paul left [the Jewish meeting place] and went into a house that was next to it, [and preached there]. Titius Justus, the owner of the house, was a non-Jewish man who had accepted what the Jews believe.
Mann boatse k'aleyat Titos Iyost'osi eteets asho mook k'azbiami, ashaan Ik'o Ik'if asha b́tesh, b́moonwere ayhudiwots Ik' k'oni mooniyere beshaatni b́tesh.
8 [After that], the ruler of the Jewish meeting place, [whose name was] Crispus, and all of his family [MTY] believed in the Lord [Jesus]. Many other people in Corinth who listened [to Paul] also believed [in Jesus]. Then they were baptized. [But there were people who still opposed Paul and his preaching].
K'ersp'osi eteefo ayhudiyots Ik' k'oni maa jishiruwo b́meytsi ash jamonton Doonzo bíamani, ay K'orontos ashuwotswere P'awlos b́ keewufere shisht amanat bogúpeyi.
9 One night Paul had a vision in which the Lord [Jesus] said to him, “Do not be afraid [of those who oppose you]. Instead, you should continue speaking [to people about me]. Do not stop,
Doonzonuwere t'ú bek'on P'awlossh hank'o bíeti, «Shatk'aye, keewwe, s'k etk'aye,
10 because I [will help] you, and no one will be able to harm you [(sg) here. Keep telling people about me], because there are many in this city who will [believe in] me.”
Taaye neentonye tfa'oni, kitanitsere ay asho tdetstsotse gondo niyats betsosh falituwo konuworu aaliye.»
11 So Paul stayed in Corinth for a year and a half, teaching people the message from God [about Jesus].
Mansh P'awlos Ik' aap'o ashuwotssh danifere ik natonat badosh manoke b́teshi.
12 When Gallio was the [Roman] governor of Achaia [province], the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] there got together and seized Paul. They took him before Gallio [and accused him],
Galiyos Akayiya datso altsi wotat b́ naashor ayhudiyots ik wotdek't P'awlosats botuwi, angshituwots shinatso bín dek'amt,
13 saying, “This man is teaching people [a false religion, leading them] to worship God in ways that are contrary to our [Jewish] laws.”
«Ashaan Muse nemo b́ k'efts weratse ashuwots Ik'o bo ik'ituwok'o b́ woshiri!» boeti.
14 When Paul was about to speak [MTY] [to defend himself], Gallio said to the Jews, “If this man had acted deceitfully or disobeyed [any of our Roman] laws, I would listen [patiently] to what you Jews [want to tell me].
P'awlos boosh aaniyosh k'andek't b́befere Galyos ayhudiwotssh hank'owa bíet, «It Ayhudi jirwotso! itats gondo wee weralo finere wotink'ere it t'intsts s'aamiyo k'amde tk'ebank'oni b́teshi,
15 However, you are merely arguing about words and names and your own [Jewish] laws, so you yourselves need to resolve this. I refuse to judge these things!”
Ernmó aap'uwotsnat shúts jango it nemi jangosha it mooshiri wotiyal man it took kis'e, taa keewanotsats angshosh geeratse.»
16 After Gallio [had said that], he [commanded some soldiers/guards] that [they] expel those [Jewish leaders] from the courtroom.
Hank'o ett moosh mooshiruwoke boon b́kishi.
17 Then [the mob outside] grabbed the leader of the Jewish meeting place, Sosthenes [because they considered that he was responsible for those accusations against Paul]. They beat him, right there in front of the courthouse. But Gallio did nothing about it.
Manoor jamwots ayhudiyots Ik' k'oni maa jishiruwo Sostensn detsdek'et angishiruwots shinatse boojot'i, jaman b́wotefere Galyos kis'odeshatse.
18 Paul stayed on with the believers in Corinth for (many days/some time). Then he left the believers there, and went with Priscilla and [her husband] Aquila. They went down to Cenchrea, [a port city]. There Paul had his head shaved {[someone] shave his head} in order to partially complete a vow that he had taken. Then they got on a ship and sailed for Syria [province].

19 They arrived at Ephesus [city], and Priscilla and Aquila stayed there. [Before Paul left Ephesus], he entered the Jewish meeting place and lectured to the Jews.
Efesoni bobodtsok'ono P'rsk'lonat Ak'ilon manoke oori bok'ri, bímó Ayhudi Ik' k'oni moots kindt ayhudiyotssh keewo b́ keewufoni.
20 They asked him to stay longer, but he refused.
Ay aawosh bonton b́teshetuwok'o bok'oniyalor eekeratse.
21 But, as he left, he told them, “I will come back, if God wills/desires [me to do that].” Then, [because he wanted to be in Jerusalem to finish completing his vow], he got on [a ship that] sailed from Ephesus.
Ernmó «Ik'o bí eteetka wotiyal k'oshoor itok aanarr weetuwe» etk'raat Efesonitsere markabots kinddek't k'azbíami.
22 When the ship arrived at Caesarea, Paul [got off. He] went up [to Jerusalem] and greeted the believers there. Then he went back down to Antioch [city in Syria province].
K'isarimaantsowere b́bodtsok'on maniyere Iyerusalem maants kesht Ik'i meyitsi ashuwotssh jamo b́ t'intsiyakon aanat Ans'okiyi maants k'az b́ oot'i.
23 Paul spent some time [with the believers] there. Then he left Antioch and traveled to several towns [that he had visited previously] in Galatia and Phrygia [provinces]. He taught all of the believers more [of the message from God about Jesus].
Manoknowere muk'i b́teshi, maniyere hakon Gelatiynat Frgiy datsatse ikoke tuut ikok gúúrefetst amantsuwotsi b́ kup'iyi.
24 [While Paul was traveling in Galatia and Phrygia], a Jewish man whose name was Apollos came to Ephesus. He was a native of Alexandria [city]. He [spoke eloquently] and he knew the Scriptures thoroughly.
Iskndri datsatse shuwetso Ap'losi eteets Ayhudi asho Efesoni b́weyi, bí S'ayin mas'aafwotsi t'iwintsdek't dankoonat noon keewonowere sheengshdek't keewo falk asha b́tesh.
25 [Other believers] had taught him [some things] about how the Lord [Jesus desires that people] should conduct themselves, and he taught those things very enthusiastically [to people. He had heard about] some of the things that Jesus did and said, and he taught those facts accurately [to people. However, he was teaching incompletely about Jesus, because] he knew only what John [the Baptizer had taught people whom he] baptized.
Doonzo weerindi jangonowere dandek't S'ayin shayronowere aat'k wotat Iyesus jangonowere kaatsdek' nabfetst b́danifoni, wotowa eree bí b́danfo Yohans gupo s'uzi b́tesh.
26 Apollos went to the Jewish meeting place, and he told the people there very confidently the things that he had learned. When Priscilla and Aquila heard what Apollos taught, they invited him [to their home]. There they explained more accurately to him the way [that] God [gives people eternal life].

27 When Apollos decided that he would like to go to Achaia [province], the believers in Ephesus told him that it would be good for him to do that. So they wrote a letter to the believers [in Achaia saying that they] should welcome Apollos. [So Apollos got on a ship to go to Corinth]. After he arrived, he greatly helped those whom [God] had kindly enabled to believe [in Jesus].

28 Apollos was vigorously arguing publicly with [the leaders of] the Jews while many other people listened. [By quoting] from the Scriptures, he proved to people that Jesus was the Messiah.
