Acts 24
1 Five days later Ananias the high priest, [having heard that Paul was now in Caesarea], went down [there from Jerusalem], along with some [other Jewish] elders and a lawyer [whose name was] Tertullus. There they formally told the governor what Paul had done [that they considered] wrong.
Кала прожыле панч деса, баро рашай Анания, коисавэ пхурэдэра, тай мануш саво жанэл законо Тертуло авиле андэ Кесария, соб тэ ужылисарэл англав баро рай лэ Павлос.
2 [The governor commanded] Paul to be brought {[a soldier] to bring Paul} in. [When Paul arrived], Tertullus began to accuse him. He said [to the governor], “Honorable Governor Felix, during the many years that you [(sg)] have ruled us, we [(exc)] have lived well/peacefully. By planning wisely, you have improved many things in this province.
Ай сар заандярдэ лэ Павлос, о Тертуло ашыля тэ ужылисарэл лэс. — Пативало Фэликсо! Ту и тирэ годятирэ парувима важ амаро народо андярэн амэнди састо миро. Амэ пэ всаворэ тхана и андэ всавори вряма прилас када и наисарас тут.
3 [Therefore], sir, we [(exc)] always gratefully acknowledge everything that [you have done] for all [of us], wherever [you have done those things].
4 But, so that I will not take up too much of your time, I earnestly request that you kindly listen to me very briefly.
Кай тэ на залав тири вряма, мэ мангав тут пав пэско мищимос выашун мэрно налунгуно лав.
5 We [(exc)] have observed that this man, [wherever he goes], causes trouble. [Specifically], he causes all the Jews everywhere [HYP] to riot. [Also], he leads the entire group [whom people call] ‘the followers of the Nazarene’, a [false] sect.
Амэ аракхас, со кадва мануш — сар найлащи дукх. Вов ваздэл лэ иудеёнэн пай всавори люма и исин пхурэдэр пай назаретоско стидимос.
6 He even tried to do things in the Temple [in Jerusalem] that would (defile it/make it unholy). So we [(exc)] seized him.
Вов кадя ж камэлас тэ магрисарэл о храмо. Колэсти амэ схутилдэ лэс.
7 But Lysias, the commander at the Roman fort, came with his soldiers and forcefully took him away from us [SYN].
8 Lysias also commanded Paul’s accusers to come here and accuse Paul before you. If you question him yourself, you will be able to learn that all these things about which we are accusing him are true.”
Кала ту допушэса лэс, ту ежэно ужанэса пала вся, андэр со амэ ужылисарас лэс.
9 When the Jewish [leaders who were listening heard that, they] told [the governor that] what Tertullus had said was true.
Иудеёря кадя ж ужылисарэнас лэ Павлос и пхэнэнас, со када вся чячимос.
10 Then the governor motioned with [his hand to Paul that] he should speak. So Paul replied. He said, “[Governor Felix, I know that you(sg) have judged this Jewish] province for many years. Therefore I gladly defend myself, confident [that you will listen to me and will judge me fairly].
Баро рай сикадя лэ Павлости, кай вов тэ дэл дума, и кодва ашыля тэ пхэнэл: — Мэ жанав, со ту бут бэрша сындос кадва народо, и колэсти лошаса пхэнава лав пала пэстэ.
11 You [(sg)] can [easily] ascertain that (it has not been more than twelve days since/only twelve days ago) I went up went up to Jerusalem to worship [God. That is not enough time to cause a lot of trouble].
Тути напхарэс авэла тэ ужанэс кода, со на майбут, сар дэшудуй деса палпалэ мэ авилем тэ тэлював Дэвлэсти андо Иерусалимо.
12 No one [can claim legitimately that they] saw me arguing with anyone at the Temple courts [because I did not do that. No one can claim legitimately that they saw me] causing people to riot in [any Jewish meeting place], or causing trouble anywhere [else] in [Jerusalem] city, [because I did not do that].
Кола, савэ ман ужылисарэн, на дикхле, кай мэ тэ спорисавав варикаса андо храмо и тэ ваздав лэ манушэн андэ синагоги тай андэ саво-то тхан фороско.
13 So they cannot prove to you the things about which they are now accusing me.
Онэ на допхэнэна кода, андэр со икхатар ман ужылисарэн.
14 But I admit to you [(sg) that this is true]: I do worship the God that our ancestors [worshipped. It is true that] I follow the way that [Jesus taught us]. The Jewish leaders call that a false religion/teaching. I also believe everything that was written [by Moses] {that [Moses wrote]} in the laws that [God gave him], and everything that was written by the [other] prophets {that the [other] prophets wrote} [in their books] [MTY].
Мэ прижандював тути, со жав пав Дром Раеско, саво онэ акхарэн хохавно сытяримос. Мэ тэлював Дэвлэсти амарэ дадэнго, патяв всаворэсти, со пистросардо андо Законо тай андэ пророкондирэ лила.
15 I confidently expect, just like [some of] these men also expect, that [some day God] will cause everyone who has died to become alive again. He will (cause to become alive again/raise from the dead) both those who were righteous and those who were wicked.
Мандэ кацави ж надия по Дэл, сар и колэндэ манушэндэ, — надия, со чячимастирэ и найчячимастирэ жундёна мулэндар.
16 [Because I am confidently waiting for that day], I always try to do what pleases God and what other people think is right.
Важ кода мэ терав вся, кай тэ жував жужаса пативаса англав Дэл и англай мануша.
17 After I [had been in other places for] several years, I returned to Jerusalem. I went there to deliver some money to my fellow Jews [who are] poor, and to offer sacrifices [to God].
Мэ на сымас катэ коискачи бэрша, ай тунчи авилем андо Иерусалимо, кай тэ пэрэдав мэрнэ народости ловэ, савэ стидэ важ чёрорэ, и тэ анав жэртва.
18 Some [Jews] saw me in the temple [courts] after I had completed the ritual by which a person is made {that makes a person} pure. There was no crowd with me, and I was not causing [people] to riot.
Ай ман дикхле андо храмо, кала мэ теравас жужаримаско обрядо. Катэ на сас нисаво цыписаримаско стидимос, и нико на ваздэласпэ.
19 But it was some [other] Jews [who had come] from Asia [province who really caused people to riot. They] should be here in front of you [(sg)] to accuse me, if they thought that I [did] something [wrong].
Жыкай кала авиле коискачи иудеёря андай Цыкни Азия. Лэнди и трэбуй сас ман тэ ужылисарэн, сар исин андэр со.
20 [But if they] do not [want to do that] (OR, [But because they] are [not] here), these [Jewish] men who are here should tell you [(sg)] what [they think] I did that was wrong, when I [defended myself] before their Council.
Мэк мануша, савэ катэ исин, пхэнэн, саво найчячимос онэ аракхле андэ кода, со мэ теравас, кала ман допушэлас Синедрионо.
21 [They might say that] one thing that I shouted as I stood before them [was wrong. What I said] was, ‘You are judging me today because I believe that [God] will (cause [all people] who have died to become alive again/raise [all people] from the dead).’”
Мэ домукав, со ужыло андо кода, со, кала тэрдювавас котэ, цыписайлем: — Ман сындосарэн пала кода, со мэ патяв, со жундёна мулэ!
22 Felix already knew quite a lot about [what people called] ‘the way [of Jesus’]. But he did not let Paul or his accusers continue to speak. [Instead], he said [to them], “[Later], when Commander Lysias comes down here, I will decide these matters that concern you all.”
Тунчи Фэликсо, саво майфэдэр жанэлас пала Дром, пхэндя: — Мэ пхэнава пэско лав палав кадва рындо, кала авэла пхурэдэр мия халавдэн Лисиё.
23 Then he told the officer [who was guarding Paul] to [take Paul back to the prison and] make sure that he was guarded all the time. But he said that Paul was not to be chained {that the officer was not to fasten chains on him}, and if his friends came to visit him, [the officer] should allow them to help Paul [in any way that they wished].
Вов припхэндя пхурэдэрэсти шэлэн халавдэн тэ дикхэл палав Павло, нэ тэ дэл лэсти найбут воля и тэ домукэл лэстирэ амалэн тэ подритярэн лэ Павлос.
24 Several days later Felix and his wife Drusilla, who was a Jew, came [back to Caesarea after having been away for a few days]. Felix [commanded] Paul to be brought in {[a soldier to] bring Paul in}. Then Felix listened to what Paul [said to him]. Paul spoke about what [Christians] believe about the Messiah Jesus.
Кала прожыле коискачи деса, о Фэликсо авиля пэстиря ромняса, сави сас иудейка, ла акхарэнас Друзила. Вов бишалдя палав Павло, кай тэ поашунэн палав лэско патявимос андо Исусо Христосо.
25 Paul explained [to them about what God requires people] to do in order to please him. [He also explained about God requiring people to] control how they act. [Paul also told him that there will be a time when God] will judge [people]. Felix became alarmed [after hearing those things. So] he said to Paul, “That is all I [want to hear] now. When there is a time that is convenient I will ask you [(sg)] to come [to me again].”
Павло дэлас дума палав жужымаско жувимос, со трэбуй тэ ритярэл пэс андэ васта и палав сындо, саво авэла. Фэликсо пэрэдарайля тай пхэндя: — Хутилэла пэ адес! Жатар! Сар трэбуй авэла, мэ тут акхарава.
26 [Felix said that because] he hoped that Paul would give him some money [to allow Paul to get out of prison]. So he repeatedly sent for Paul to come, and Paul [repeatedly went and] talked with him. [But he] did not [give Felix any money, and Felix did not command his soldiers to release Paul from prison].
Вов кадя ажутярэлас, со Павло дэла лэсти ловэ, колэсти бут молоря припхэнэлас тэ анэн лэс и дэлас дума лэса.
27 Felix let Paul remain in prison, because he wanted to please the Jewish [leaders and he knew that they did not want him to release Paul]. But when two years had passed, Porcius Festus became governor in place of Felix.
Прожыля дуй бэрш, по Фэликсоско тхан тэрдиля Порцыё Фэсто. Ай о Фэликсо камля тэ терэл мишто иудеёнди и ашадя лэ Павлос андо баруно.
