Acts 28
1 After we [(exc)] had arrived safely [on the shore], we learned that it was an island called Malta.
Sata tino umerum, bati kunna agi wa ra usibiri umalita.
2 The people who lived there received us kindly. They lit a fire and invited us to come and warm ourselves, because it was raining and it was cold.
Ana nipin me wabe zin duru imumu iriri kan wa huren duru ura tikun na udimdim, barki nan tiwui sa azin nu wuza me.
3 Paul gathered some sticks and put them on the fire. But [among those sticks was] a snake that had come out [from the fire to escape] from the heat, and it fastened itself on Paul’s hand.
Ba sa bulus ma oro muri mumu titi barki ma hure urani, ba akem biwa barki ubambam ura, bisuri bi gbinciko tari tume.
4 [The islanders knew that the snake was poisonous, so] when they saw it hanging from Paul’s hand, they said to each other, “Probably this man has murdered someone. Although he has escaped from being drowned, [the god] ([who] pays [people back/who punishes people]) for their [MTY] sins will cause him to die.”
Sa ana ticukum tini pin me sawa ira biwa ba gbincirko tari tume, bawa gun na ce-ce, ''tabas unugeme unu huzanu mani, konu innu guna suburka usuro uraba udang, uweki utize tini kubu udida cekime me mavengize ba.''
5 But Paul simply shook the snake off into the fire, and nothing happened to him.
Bama zarika biwame anyimo ura daki innu guna ba kunna me iwono ba.
6 The people were expecting that Paul’s body would soon swell up or that he would suddenly fall down and die. But after they had waited a long time, they saw [that the snake] had not harmed him [at all]. So then the people changed their minds and said [to one another], “This man is not a murderer! Probably he is a god!”
Watonno daan wa iri nani bidi bo bi rizi ikizi a sawabe uhana uganiya cin da wa ira ire imum yakemba bawa cori ubasa abanga awe wagu me are asere ani.
7 Near where the people had made the fire, there were some fields that belonged to a man whose name was Publius. He was the chief official on the island. He invited us to [come and stay in] his home. He took care of us for three days.
Amamu nan na hira agino me tire tiru tunu udang ahira agino, unaniza Babiliyas. Makaban duru manyan duru imum be sa ti nyara uhana atiye ti taru.
8 [At that time] Publius’ father had a fever and dysentery, and he was lying [in bed]. So Paul visited him and prayed [for him. Then] Paul placed his hands on him and healed him.
Arani asenke unu yo u Babiliyas mazin nu zito innu tuma uni pum nan nu tiza umaye. Bulus maribe mawume biringara ma tarime, mahuma.
9 After Paul had done that, the other people on the island who were sick came [to him] and [he] healed them, too.
Sa anime yakem, ukasu anu zatu ni huma sawa ra ahira agino me wa e wakem ni huma.
10 They brought us gifts and [showed in other ways that] they greatly respected us. When we were [ready] to leave [three months later], they brought us food and other things that we would need [for the trip].
Anume wa wuna duru gonogon. Satizinnu bara apum atanu wa nyan duru vat imumbe sati nyara.
11 After [we had stayed there] three months, we [got on] a ship [that was going to Italy and] sailed away. The ship had been in [a harbor on] the island during the months when there are many storms. It had come from Alexandria [city]. On the front of the ship there were carved images of the twin gods [whose names were Castor and Pollux].
Adumo ati petitaru, tiribe uzirgi u iskandariya ugesa dati innu puturu wara ahira agino me inni hori inde kasi ibara ahana aruma.
12 We [sailed from the island and] arrived at Syracuse [city on Sicily island] and stayed there three days.
Sata tino ani pinnu sarakus, tiwu tiye ti taru ahirame.
13 Then we traveled on by ship and arrived at Rhegium [port in Italy]. The next day, the wind was blowing from behind us, [so we sailed along fast]. The day after that, we reached Puteoli [town, where we left the ship].
Abinime ti dusa, ti'e anipinnu Rigiyum. U aka uniye ni inde upebu uni kara uhiri usuro ukudu, anyimo atiye tire tibiki ubatiyoli.
14 In Puteoli we met some believers who invited us to stay with them for a week. [After visiting them], we [left there and started to travel by land] to Rome.
Abirkome tikem are anu henu wa ikinduru ti cukuno nigome nanwe uhana utiye usunare. Una uginome uni ta'e u Roma.
15 [A group of] believers [who lived in Rome] had heard that we [(exc) were coming]. So they came out [from Rome] to meet us. [Some of] them met us at [the town called] ‘The Market on Appian [Road’, ] and others met us at [the town called] ‘The Three Inns’. When Paul saw those believers, he thanked God and was encouraged.
Abirko sa anu henu wa kunna abanga aru, wa suri barki wagurin duru usuro ukasuwa u Abiyas in madangga mataru. Sa Bulus ma irawe, mawuzi Asere an koi makuri makem ushew.
16 After we [(exc)] arrived in Rome, Paul was permitted {[a Roman official who was responsible for guarding Paul] permitted Paul} to live [in a house] by himself. But [there was always] a soldier there to guard him.
Abinime tiribe u Roma, ahenmin Bulus macukuno isisi me nigome nan anani kara nini koni sa wa zinnu be ume.
17 After [Paul had been there] three days, he sent a message to the Jewish leaders [to come and talk with him. So] they came, and Paul said to them, “My fellow Jews, although I have not opposed our people nor spoken against the customs of our ancestors, [our leaders] in Jerusalem [seized] [MTY] [me. But before they could kill me, a Roman commander rescued me and later sent me] to Caesarea for Roman [authorities/officials to put me on trial].
Sa tiye ti taru ta aka, Bulus ma titi anu aje amayahudawa. Sa wa orno, bama gunew, ''anu henu daki ma wuza uye ti cari ba nani ma hribe utanda an ka co uruba, vat in anime anyare mi in tirza usuro a urshalima uhana atari tanu Roma.
18 The Roman authorities/officials questioned me and wanted to release me, because I had not done any [bad] thing for which I should be executed {they should kill me}.
Sawa igizom, wanyari uceki um, barki sadaki macara abanga sa adakr awum iwono ba.
19 But when the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] there opposed [what the Roman authorities wanted to do], I had to formally request that the Emperor [judge me here in Rome]. But my reason for doing that was not that I wanted to accuse our leaders about anything.
Sa ayahudawa walonno anyimo u' uri iriba iwe, i cukuno gbas in ziki time uhana akaisar, daki in nu guna in zin binyo bu zika utize tanu am ani ba.
20 So I have requested you [to come] here so that I can tell you why I am a prisoner. It is because I believe in [MTY] our Messiah, the one [God long ago promised to send] to us [(inc)] Jews.”
Barki anime ani ma mara u'ira u shi in buki tize nan shi. Barki u inko iruba sa a isaraila wazin nui wawuna in tiri inyan iginome.
21 Then [the Jewish leaders] said, “We [(exc)] have not received any letters from [our fellow Jews] in Judea about you. Also, none of our fellow Jews who have arrived [here from Judea] has said anything bad about you.
Sa wa gunme, ''daki takaba unyettike usuro uyahudawa abanga aweba, daki uye anyimo ani henu desa ma ayen duru inna banga nani tire tize anice unwe.
22 But we [(exc)] want to hear what you [(sg)] think about this [Christian] sect/group, because we know that in many places [HYP] bad things are being said {people are saying bad things} about it.”
A anime ti nyara ti kuuna ahu imum be sawa basa wakuru wa ira ahira anu darika, iye tisa rusa azinnu nonsi u uni koba.''
23 So they [talked with Paul and decided that they would come back on another day to hear him. When that day arrived], those Jews came back to the place where Paul was staying, and they brought more Jews with them. Paul talked to them from morning until evening. He talked to them about how God wants to rule [people’s lives] [MET]. He tried to convince them that Jesus [is the Messiah] by reminding them what Moses and the other prophets had written [MTY].
Sa wa inko me ueui, ma zin nu anu gbardang wakem me haira me sama tunno ni. Ma bezi timumum me ahira awe, ma zin nu inso u ira uti gomo ta Asre. Anime manyari u hunguko uwe abanga a Yeso, uzika atara a musa uhana uma anabawa, ma igi me usuro insiszo uhana awunjoro.
24 Some of those Jews believed that what was said [by Paul] {what [Paul] said} about Jesus [was true], but others did not believe [that it was true].
Aye wakari ma'aye imumbe sa abuka, a anime aye daki wa hemba.
25 So they began to argue with one another. [Paul realized that some of them did not want to listen to him, so] when they were about to leave, he said, “The Holy Spirit said something to your/our(incl) ancestors. He spoke these words to Isaiah the prophet, [and what he said is also true about you]:
Barki sa daki wa hem inna ce aweme ba wa dusa uhana umar imumbe sa bulus ma buka ni gurran ni inde, ''bibe bilau babu ka tize usuro anyo Ishaya unu kurzuzo utize ni uhana acokoro ashime.
26 Go to your fellow Israelites and tell them, ‘You repeatedly listen [to the message of God], but you never understand [what God is saying]. You repeatedly look at and see [the things that God is doing], but you never understand [what they mean].
Magu, 'hana ahira anu zatu urusa utize ta Asere aginome agu, anyimo u kunna idi kunna in anime idi da tin shiba; Idi iri anime idida rusa shiba.''
27 God also said to the prophet, These people do not understand, because they have become stubborn. They have ears, but they do not understand what they hear, and they have closed their eyes [because they do not want to see]. If they wanted to obey what I say to them, they might understand what they see [me doing] and what they hear [me saying]. Then they might turn from their sinful behavior and I would save them.’
Anime ani muraba manu aginome mawuna makotoras, titui tuwe ta kunna inni jasi, wakorso aje awe; Barki kati wa iri wa rusi, wakuri wakuuna inti tuituwe me, nani watinka in mu ruba muwe, barki wa gamirka mi'in human we.
28 [That is what God said to the prophet Isaiah about our ancestors. But you Jews today do not want to believe God’s message]. Therefore, I am telling you that [God] has sent to the non-Jews this message about how he saves people, and they will listen [and accept it]!”
Barki anime, rusani ubara ugino me wa Asere atuman uni ahira anu zatu rusa utize ta Asere, wadi kunna.
(Sa ma buka tize tiginome, mayahudawa wa dusa wakuri, wa meki matara inna ce-ce awe).
30 For two whole years Paul stayed [there] in a house that he rented. Many people came to see him, and he received them all gladly [and talked with them].
Bnulus macukuno tiwe tire anyimo akura sa meki ma nyinza ikirfi imeni, mazinnu wuza vat anu mahabi sawa aye ahira ame.
31 He preached [and taught people] about how God could rule [their lives] [MET] and taught them about the Lord Jesus Christ. He did that without being afraid, and no one tried to stop him.
Ma zin tize titi gomo ta Asere, mazi innu dungara abanga ugomo Yeso kiristi sarki ma aye. Daki uye karti me ba.
