Acts 19
1 It came about that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the upper country and came to the city of Ephesus, and found certain disciples there.
Abolose da Golidia moilai ganodini esalea, Bolo da Gala: isia amola Falidia, amo soge ganodini lalu. E da Efesase moilaiga doaga: loba, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi dunu mogili ba: i.
2 Paul said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” They said to him, “No, we did not even hear about the Holy Spirit.”
E da ilima amane adole ba: i, “Dilia Gode Ea hou lalegaguiba: le, dilia dogo ganodini Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala da aligila sa: ibela: ?” Be ilia da bu adole i, “Ninia da Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala da esalebe hamedafa nabi!”
3 Paul said, “Into what then were you baptized?” They said, “Into John's baptism.”
Bolo da bu adole ba: i, “Dilia ba: bodaise hamoi amo ea bai da adi baila: ?” Ilia da bu adole i, “Ninia Yone Ba: bodaise ea olelei, amo hanoga fane salasu hou bai hamomusa: gini hamoi!”
4 So Paul replied, “John baptized with the baptism of repentance. He told the people that they should believe in the one who would come after him, that is, in Jesus.”
Bolo da bu adole i, “Yone da dunu ilia wadela: i hou dawa: beba: le, sinidigima: ne, fane salasu hou hamoi. Be e da Isala: ili dunuma amane olelei, ‘Nama fa: no misunu Dunu ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: ma. Yesu Gelesu Ea hou lalegaguma!’”
5 When the people heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Amo sia: nababeba: le, ilia da Hina Gode Yesu Ea Dioba: le hanoga fane sanasi dagoi.
6 Then when Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them and they spoke in other languages and prophesied.
Bolo da ea lobo ili da: iya ligisili, Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala da ilia dogo ganodini aligila sa: i. Amalalu, ilia sia: hisu hisu amoga sia: nanu, amola Gode Ea Sia: olelesu.
7 In all they were about twelve men.
Dunu fagoyale gala agoane hamoi.
8 Paul went into the synagogue and spoke boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading them about the kingdom of God.
Amalalu, oubi udiana amoga, Bolo da sinagoge diasu ganodini, dunu huluane Gode Hinadafa Hou noga: le dafawaneyale dawa: ma: ne, e da ilima gilisili sia: dasu.
9 But when some Jews were hardened and disobedient, they began to speak evil of the Way before the crowd. So Paul left them and took the disciples from him, reasoning with them every day in the lecture hall of Tyrannus.
Be mogili ilia odagi igiwane hamoiba: le, dafawaneyale hame dawa: i. Dunu huluane ilia midadi, ilia Hina Gode Ea Logo Ahoasu amoma lasogole sia: i. Amaiba: le, Bolo da ili fisili asili, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu oule asili, eso huluane e amola ili da Daila: nase olelesu diasu amo ganodini sia: dasu.
10 This continued for two years, so that all who lived in Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.
Amo hou da ode aduna amoga hamosu. Amaiba: le, dunu huluane, Yu dunu amola Dienadaile dunu A: isia soge amo ganodini esalu, ilia da Hina Gode Ea Sia: nabi dagoi.
11 God was doing mighty deeds by the hands of Paul,
Gode da Bolo ea loboga musa: hame ba: su gasa bagade hou hamonanu.
12 so that even handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched him were taken to the sick and their illnesses left them and the evil spirits came out of them.
Eno dunu da Bolo ea finimu doga: su amola hawa: hamosu abula, amo ema lale, gaguli asili, oloi dunu digili ba: ma: ne gaguli asi. Oloi da digili ba: beba: le, ilia oloi da uhi amola eno Fio liligi ilia dogo ganodini sa: i galea da fadegale fasi.
13 But there were Jewish exorcists traveling through the area. They called on the name of the Lord Jesus so they could have power over evil spirits when they said, “By the Jesus whom Paul proclaims, I command you to come out.”
Eno Yu dunu ilia da Fio liligi fadegale fasisu dawa: dunu, ilia amola Hina Gode Yesu Ea Dioba: le amo hou hamomusa: dawa: i galu. Ilia Fio a: silibu amoma amane sia: i, “Dilia! Yesu, amo Ea hou Bolo da olelesa, amo Ea Dioba: le fadegale fasima!”
14 The Jewish high priest, whose name was Sceva, had seven sons who were doing this.
Yu gobele salasu Hina dunu ea dio amo Sifa, amo ea dunu mano fesuale gala da agoane hamonanebe ba: i.
15 An evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?”
Be wadela: i a: silibu da ilima bu adole i, “Na da Yesu dawa: ! Amola na da Bolo dawa: ! Be Dilia! Dilia da nowala: ?”
16 The evil spirit in the man leaped on the exorcists and overpowered them and beat them up. Then they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
Amalalu doulasi dunu (amo ea dogo ganodini Fio liligi aligila sa: i) e da gasa bagade ilima doagala: le, ili huluane fananu, sefasi. Ea da ili da: i fa: gili, ili abula gadelale fadegale, sefasili, ilia diasu fisili, da: i nabadowane hobea: i.
17 This became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who lived at Ephesus. They became very afraid, and the name of the Lord Jesus was honored.
Yu dunu amola Dienadaile dunu, Efesase moilai ganodini esalu, amo sia: nababeba: le beda: i bagade ba: i. Ilia Hina Yesu Gelesu amo Ea Dio nodone dawa: i.
18 Also, many of the believers came and confessed and admitted the evil things they had done.
Yesu Ea hou lalegagui dunu bagohame da misini, dunu huluane ba: ma: ne, ilia wadela: i hou hamoi olelelalu, fofada: i dagoi.
19 Many who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of everyone. When they counted the value of them, it was fifty thousand pieces of silver.
Mogili da sema nabi hou amola wamuli dawa: su hou hamobeba: le, ilia amo hou olelesu buga gaguli misini, dunu huluane ba: ma: ne, laluga gobesi dagoi. Amo buga ea bidi lasu ilegei idili, amo da50,000 gina agoane ba: i.
20 So the word of the Lord spread very widely in powerful ways.
Amaiba: le, Gode Ea hou da gasa bagadewane heda: i amola dunu bagohame soge huluane amo ganodini da Gode Ea sia: nabi.
21 Now after Paul completed his ministry in Ephesus, he decided in the Spirit to pass through Macedonia and Achaia on his way to Jerusalem; he said, “After I have been there, I must also see Rome.”
Amo hou dagoloba, Bolo da Ma: sidounia soge amola Aga: ia soge, baligili, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade amoga masusa: dawa: i galu. E amane sia: i, “Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade ba: lalu, na da Louma moilai bai bagade ba: la masunu.”
22 Paul sent to Macedonia two of his helpers, Timothy and Erastus, who had helped him. But he himself stayed in Asia for a while.
Amaiba: le, Bolo da ea fidisu dunu aduna amo Dimodi amola Ila: sadase, Ma: sidounia sogega asunasi. E da bu A: isia soge ganodini eno hawa: hamomusa: dawa: i galu.
23 At about that time there was no small disturbance in Ephesus concerning the Way.
Amo esoga, Efesase moilai ganodini dunu ilia Hina Yesu Gelesu amo ea Logoga ahoabeba: le, gegesu da doaga: i.
24 A certain silversmith named Demetrius, who made silver statues of Artemis, brought in much business for the craftsmen.
Dunu afae ea dio amo Demidaliase da silifa amoga liligi hamosu. Efesase moilai ganodini, debolo diasu amo ganodini dunu ilia uda ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ea dio amo Adema: se, ema nodone sia: ne gadosu. Amo debolo diasu defele, Demidaliase da debolo diasu fonobahadi silifaga hamone, dunuma bidi labeba: le, ea hawa: hamosu dunu da muni bagade lasu.
25 So he gathered together the workmen of that occupation and said, “Sirs, you know that in this business we make much money.
Amaiba: le ea hawa: hamosu dunu amola eno agoaiwane hawa: hamosu dunu, e sia: beba: le fofada: musa: gilisili, e da ilima amane sia: i, “Defea! Dilia huluane dawa: Ninia amo hawa: hamobeba: le muni bagade laha.
26 You see and hear that, not only at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people. He is saying that there are no gods that are made with hands.
Be dilisu da amo dunu Bolo ea wali hawa: hamonanebe ba: sa. Ninia loboga hamoi liligi da ogogosu ‘gode’ e da sia: daha. Dunu bagohame Efesase moilaiga amola A: isia soge amo ganodini, amo Bolo ea sia: nababeba: le, dafawaneyale dawa: sa.
27 Not only is there danger that our trade will no longer be needed, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis may be considered worthless. Then she would even lose her greatness, she whom all Asia and the world worships.”
Amaiba: le, ninia hawa: hamosu amoma dunu ilia da lasogole sia: sa: besa: le, na beda: i. Be amo fawane hame. Be ninia uda ‘gode’ Adema: se (A: isia dunu huluane amola osobo bagade fi dunu huluane, da ema nodone sia: ne gadosa) amo amola ea debolo diasu amola amoga dunu ilia lasogole sia: beba: le, amo da hamedei dafai liligi agoane ba: mu!”
28 When they heard this, they were filled with anger and cried out, saying, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians.”
Dunu bagohame gilisi amo sia: nababeba: le, ougi bagade ba: i. Ilia ha: giwane ha lale amane wele sia: i, “Efesase ‘gode’ Adema: se da bagadedafa!”
29 The whole city was filled with confusion, and the people rushed together into the theater. They had seized Paul's travel companions, Gaius and Aristarchus, who came from Macedonia.
Dunu huluane Efesase moilai ganodini amo sia: nababeba: le, halalalu. Ha lai gilisi dunu ilia Ma: sidounia dunu amo ela dio amo Ga: iase amola A: lisadagase, (ela da Bolo amola gilisili ahoasu) amo ilia gasawane gagulaligili, hehenane, moilai dunu ilia gilisisu diasu amoga hiouginana asi.
30 Paul wanted to enter in among the crowd of people, but the disciples prevented him.
Bolo da amo dunu gilisisu ilia midadi fofada: musa: dawa: i galu. Be Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu da ea masunu logo hedofai.
31 Also, some of the officials of the province of Asia who were his friends sent him a message strongly requesting him not to enter the theater.
Mogili gamane fofada: su dunu, Boloma asigi dunu, ilia amola Bolo da gilisisu amoga mae masa: ne ema ha: giwane adole ima: ne, sia: adole iasi.
32 Some people were shouting one thing, and some another, for the crowd was in confusion. Most of them did not even know why they had come together.
Be dunu gilisisu amo ganodini wili gala: su agoane ba: i. Mogili da liligi afadafa halasu, eno da liligi eno bagade wesu. Dunu bagohame da ilia gilisi da abuliba: le gilisibayale, hame dawa: beba: le, udigili halasu.
33 Some of the crowd informed Alexander, whom the Jews were pushing to the front, and so Alexander motioned with his hand, wanting to give an explanation to those who were assembled.
Yu dunu da gilisisu midadi, dunu ea dio amo A: legesa: nede amo asunasiba: le, e da amo gegesu bai hamoyale, mogili ilia dawa: i galu. A: legesa: nede da dunu huluane ouiya: ma: ne ea loboga welalu, e da hi hou gaga: musa: , sia: sa: imusa: dawa: i galu.
34 But when they became aware that he was a Jew, they all cried out for about two hours with one voice, saying, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians.”
Be A: legesa: nede da Yu dunu amo ilia da ba: beba: le, ilia huluane gilisili bagadewane welalu amane, “Efesase ‘gode’ Adema: se da bagadedafa!”
35 When the town clerk had quieted the crowd, he said, “You men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple keeper of the great Artemis and of the image which fell down from heaven?
Halalalu, amalalu moilai sia: dedesu dunu da sia: beba: le, olofosu da doaga: i. E amane sia: i, “Na fi Efesase dunu! Ninia Efesase dunu fi da Adema: se Bagadedafa amo ea debolo amola sema igi da muagado misini, ninima doaga: i amola amo da ninia ouligisa, dunu huluanedafa dawa:
36 Seeing then that these things are undeniable, you ought to be quiet and do nothing rash.
Amo sia: da moloidafa. Dunu da ‘Amo sia: da ogogosa’ amo sia: mu da hamedei. Amaiba: le, ougi yolesili, olofoma. Udigili wili gala: su mae hamoma.
37 For you have brought these men to this court who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of our goddess.
Amo dunu dilia waha hiouginana misi da debolo diasu liligi hame wamolasu. Ilia Adema: sema hame lasogole sia: su. Be dilia amo udigili gagulaligili hiouginana misi.
38 Therefore, if Demetrius and the craftsmen who are with him have an accusation against anyone, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. Let them accuse one another.
Demidaliase amola ea hawa: hamosu dunu, da nowa dunuma fofada: musa: dawa: sea, defea, ninia da fofada: su dunu gala amola fofada: su eso ilegei dagoi. Ilia da fofada: su diasuga ilima fofada: mu da defea galu.
39 But if you seek anything about other matters, it shall be settled in the regular assembly.
Be dilia eno liligi fofada: musa: dawa: sea, dilia gamane ea sema defele, moilai fofada: su dunu gilisili hahamoma.
40 For indeed we are in danger of being accused concerning this day's riot. There is no cause for this disorder, and we will not be able to explain it.”
Be wali udigili wili gala: beba: le, gamane da ninima sia: sa: besa: le, yolema! Amo gegesu da bai hamedafa gala. Gamane da ninima adole ba: sea, ninia da bai olelemusa: logo hogoi helele, hame ba: mu.”
41 When he had said this, he dismissed the assembly.
Amo sia: nanu, e da dunu gilisi huluane amo muguluma: ne sia: i.
