Acts 18
1 After these things Paul left Athens and went to Corinth.
Lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí, Paulu jáde kúrò ni Ateni lọ sí Kọrinti.
2 There he met a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. Paul went to them,
Ó sì rí Júù kan tí a ń pè ní Akuila, tí a bí ni Pọntu, tí ó ti Itali dé ní lọ́ọ́lọ́ọ́, pẹ̀lú Priskilla aya rẹ̀; nítorí tí Kilaudiu pàṣẹ pé, kí gbogbo àwọn Júù jáde kúrò ní Romu. Ó sì tọ̀ wọ́n lọ láti rí wọn.
3 and because he worked at the same trade, he stayed with them and worked, for they were tentmakers by trade.
Nítorí tí òun náà jẹ́ oníṣẹ̀-ọwọ́ kan náà, ó bá wọn jókòó, ó sì ń ṣiṣẹ́: nítorí àgọ́ pípa ni iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wọn.
4 So Paul reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath. He persuaded both Jews and Greeks.
Ó sì ń fi ọ̀rọ̀ wé ọ̀rọ̀ pẹ̀lú wọn nínú Sinagọgu lọ́jọjọ́ ìsinmi, ó sì ń yí àwọn Júù àti àwọn Giriki lọ́kàn padà.
5 But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit to testify to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
Nígbà tí Sila àti Timotiu sì tí Makedonia wá, ọ̀rọ̀ náà ká Paulu lára, ó ń fihàn fún àwọn Júù pé, Jesu ni Kristi náà.
6 When the Jews opposed and insulted him, Paul shook out his garment at them and said to them, “May your blood be upon your own heads; I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”
Nígbà tí wọ́n sì sàtakò rẹ̀, tí wọ́n sì sọ̀rọ̀-òdì, ó gbọ́n aṣọ rẹ̀, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ̀jẹ̀ yin ń bẹ lórí ara yin; ọrùn mi mọ́: láti ìsinsin yìí lọ, èmi yóò tọ àwọn aláìkọlà lọ.”
7 Then he left from there and went to the house of Titius Justus, a man who worshiped God. His house was next to the synagogue.
Ó sì lọ kúrò níbẹ̀, ó wọ ilé ọkùnrin kan tí a ń pé ní Titu Justu, ẹni tí o ń sin Ọlọ́run; ilé rẹ̀ sì wà lẹ́gbẹ̀ Sinagọgu tímọ́tímọ́.
8 Crispus, the leader of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, together with all those who lived in his house; and many of the Corinthians who heard about it believed and were baptized.
Krisipu, olórí Sinagọgu, sì gba Olúwa gbọ́ pẹ̀lú gbogbo ilé rẹ̀, àti ọ̀pọ̀ nínú àwọn ara Kọrinti, nígbà tí wọ́n gbọ́, wọ́n gbàgbọ́, a sì bamitiisi wọn.
9 The Lord said to Paul in the night in a vision, “Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent.
Olúwa sì sọ fún Paulu lóru ni ojúran pé, “Má bẹ̀rù, ṣá máa sọ, má sì ṣe pa ẹnu rẹ̀ mọ́.
10 For I am with you, and no one will try to harm you, for I have many people in this city.”
Nítorí tí èmí wà pẹ̀lú rẹ, kò sì sí ẹni tí yóò dìde sí ọ láti pa ọ lára: nítorí mo ní ènìyàn púpọ̀ ni ìlú yìí.”
11 Paul lived there for a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
Ó sì jókòó níbẹ̀ ní ọdún kan àti oṣù mẹ́fà, ó ń kọ́ni ní ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run láàrín wọn.
12 But when Gallio became governor of Achaia, the Jews rose up together against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat;
Nígbà tí Gallioni sì jẹ baálẹ̀ Akaia, àwọn Júù fi ìfìmọ̀ṣọ̀kan dìde sí Paulu wọn sì mú un wá síwájú ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́.
13 they said, “This man persuades people to worship God contrary to the law.”
Wọ́n wí pé, “Ọkùnrin yìí ń yí àwọn ènìyàn lọ́kàn padà, láti máa sin Ọlọ́run lòdì sí òfin.”
14 Yet when Paul was about to speak, Gallio said to the Jews, “You Jews, if indeed it were a matter of wrong or a crime, it would be reasonable to deal with you.
Nígbà tí Paulu ń fẹ́ dáhùn, Gallioni wí fún àwọn Júù pé, “Ìbá ṣe pé ọ̀ràn búburú tàbí tí jàgídíjàgan kan ni, èmi ìbá gbè yín, ẹ̀yin Júù,
15 But since these are questions about words and names and your own law, settle it yourselves. I do not wish to be a judge of these matters.”
Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ti ṣe ọ̀ràn nípa ọ̀rọ̀ àti orúkọ, àti ti òfin yín ni, ki ẹ̀yin bojútó o fúnra yín; nítorí tí èmi kò fẹ́ ṣe onídàájọ́ nǹkan báwọ̀nyí.”
16 Gallio made them leave the judgment seat.
Ó sì lé wọn kúrò ní ibi ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́.
17 So they all seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the judgment seat. But Gallio did not care what they did.
Gbogbo àwọn Giriki sì mú Sostene, olórí Sinagọgu, wọ́n sì lù ú níwájú ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́. Gallioni kò sì bìkítà fún nǹkan wọ̀nyí.
18 Paul, after staying there for many more days, left the brothers and sailed for Syria with Priscilla and Aquila. Before he left the seaport, Cenchrea, he had his hair cut off because of a vow he had taken.
Paulu sì dúró sí i níbẹ̀ lọ́jọ́ púpọ̀, nígbà tí ó sì dágbére fún àwọn arákùnrin, ó bá ọkọ̀ ojú omi lọ si Siria, àti Priskilla àti Akuila pẹ̀lú rẹ̀; ó tí fá orí rẹ̀ ni Kenkerea, nítorí tí ó ti jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́.
19 When they came to Ephesus, Paul left Priscilla and Aquila there, but he himself went into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.
Ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá sí Efesu, ó sì fi wọ́n sílẹ̀ níbẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n òun tìkára rẹ̀ wọ inú Sinagọgu lọ, ó sì bá àwọn Júù fi ọ̀rọ̀ wé ọ̀rọ̀.
20 When they asked Paul to stay a longer time, he declined.
Nígbà tí wọ́n sì bẹ̀ ẹ́ pé, kí ó bá àwọn jókòó díẹ̀ sí i, ó kọ̀.
21 But taking his leave of them, he said, “I will return again to you if it is God's will.” He then set sail from Ephesus.
Ṣùgbọ́n ó dágbére fún wọn, ó sì wí pé, “Èmi ó tún padà tọ̀ yín wá, bí Ọlọ́run bá fẹ́.” Ó sì lọ kúrò láti Efesu.
22 When Paul had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the Jerusalem church and then went down to Antioch.
Nígbà tí ó sì tí gúnlẹ̀ ni Kesarea, ó gòkè lọ si Jerusalẹmu láti kí ìjọ, lẹ́yìn náà ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí Antioku.
23 After having spent some time there, Paul departed and went through the regions of Galatia and Phrygia and strengthened all the disciples.
Nígbà tí ó sì gbé ọjọ́ díẹ̀ níbẹ̀, ó n lọ, láti káàkiri ni agbègbè Galatia àti Frigia, o ń mu àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn lọ́kàn le.
24 Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, came to Ephesus. He was eloquent in speech and mighty in the scriptures.
Júù kan sì wà tí a ń pè ni Apollo, tí a bí ni Alekisandiria, ó wá sí Efesu. Ó ní ẹ̀bùn ọ̀rọ̀ sísọ, ó sì mọ ìwé mímọ́ púpọ̀.
25 Apollos had been instructed in the teachings of the Lord. Being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, but he knew only the baptism of John.
Ọkùnrin yìí ni a tí kọ́ ní ọ̀nà tí Olúwa; ó sì ṣe ẹni tí ó ní ìtara tí ẹ̀mí, ó ń sọ̀rọ̀ ó sì ń kọ́ni ní àwọn ohun tí i ṣe ti Jesu dáradára; kìkì bamitiisi tí Johanu ní ó mọ̀.
26 Apollos began to speak boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately.
Ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí fi ìgboyà sọ̀rọ̀ ni Sinagọgu. Nígbà tí Akuila àti Priskilla gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n mú un sọ́dọ̀, wọ́n sì túbọ̀ sọ ọ̀nà Ọlọ́run fún un dájúdájú.
27 When he desired to pass over into Achaia, the brothers encouraged him and wrote to the disciples in Achaia to welcome him. When he arrived, he greatly helped those who believed by grace.
Nígbà tí ó sì ń fẹ́ kọjá lọ sì Akaia, àwọn arákùnrin gbà á ní ìyànjú, wọ́n sì kọ̀wé sí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn kí wọ́n gbà á, nígbà tí ó sì dé, ó ràn àwọn tí ó gbàgbọ́ nípasẹ̀ oore-ọ̀fẹ́ lọ́wọ́ púpọ̀.
28 Apollos powerfully refuted the Jews in public debate, showing by the scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.
Nítorí tí o sọ àsọyé fún àwọn Júù ní gbangba, ó ń fi í hàn nínú ìwé mímọ́ pé, Jesu ni Kristi.
