< Acts 23 >

1 Paul looked directly at the council members and said, “Brothers, I have lived before God in all good conscience until this day.”

Paul'n roijêkpungei hah a en ngita, “Ka champui Isrealngei aviensûn ten hin Pathien mâkunga sielesarietna diktak dônin ko tho rang ngei murdi ko hong tho ani,” a tia.

2 The high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to strike him on the mouth.

Ochai Inlaltak Ananias han, Paul kôma inding ngei kôm han Paul hah a bâikuo bên pe roi, a ti pe ngeia.

3 Then said Paul to him, “God will strike you, you whitewashed wall. Are you sitting to judge me by the law, yet order me to be struck, against the law?”

Paul'n a kôm, “Nangma, bang rusûk minchekpu Pathien'n nang bên atih, a tia. Mahan nên sunga Balam anga roijêk rangin nên sunga balam khêlin mi min bên rang ni ti mo!” a tipea.

4 Those who stood by said, “Is this how you insult God's high priest?”

Paul kôm inding ngei han, Paul kôm han “Pathien Ochai Inlaltak khom jâ loiin khoi ithomo no ngo,” an tia.

5 Paul said, “I did not know, brothers, that he was high priest. For it is written, You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.”

Paul'n “Ka champuingei Ochai Inlaltak ani ti ki riet loi sika kêng, Pathien lekhabu'n ‘Ni mi, roijêkpungei chunga chong saloi ni ti rang nimak ati,’” a tia.

6 When Paul saw that the one part of the council were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he spoke loudly in the council, “Brothers, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees. It is because I have the certain hope of the resurrection of the dead that I am being judged.”

Paul'n Sadduceengei senkhat, Pharisee ngei senkhat le anni ti a riet lechu, roijêkpungei lâia han inringtakin “Ka champui Isrealngei keima Pharisee ki ni, Pharisee nâipasal ki ni, keiman mithi inthoinôkna aom ti sabeina ko dôn sikin ma angtaka intakna ko om ani,” a ti pe ngeia.

7 When he said this, an argument began between the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the crowd was divided.

Maha a ti suole chu, Pharisee ngei le Sadduceengei bâiinkhamin pâl inikin an insena.

8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, no angels, and no spirits, but the Pharisees acknowledge all of them.

(Sadduceengeiin chu mithi inthoinôkna reng om mak, vântîrtonngei, rathangei ommak, aniatachu Pharisee ngeiin chu anin thumin an iem sikin.)

9 So a large uproar occurred, and some of the scribes belonging to the Pharisees stood up and argued, saying, “We find nothing wrong with this man. What if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?”

Hanchu an iniek hah ânring uola, Pharisee tienga Balam minchupungei senkhat an indinga asân an makhala, “Hi miriem hih a tho minchâina khoite mu mak me, vântîrton le ratha'n a chongpui tatak khom nisenla khoimo asiet?” an tia.

10 When there arose a great argument, the chief captain feared that Paul would be torn to pieces by them, so he commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among the council members, and bring him into the fortress.

Hanchu asân an inkhal sikin Paul hah khêr nôinek ni ngei tiin râlmi ulientak han a chia, râlmingei hah lokongei lâia han juong sea, Paul hah hong tuonga kulpui sûng tieng tuong pai rangin chong a pêka.

11 The following night the Lord stood beside him and said, “Do not be afraid, for as you have testified about me in Jerusalem, so you must also bear witness in Rome.”

Mani jân han Pumapa hah, Paul kôm a juon dinga, a kôm, “Chi no roh! Jerusalema ko chong ni min riet angdên han Rom khopuia khom ko chong la min riet nôk ni tih,” a tipea.

12 When it became day, some Jews formed a conspiracy and called a curse down upon themselves with an oath not to eat nor drink anything until they had killed Paul.

Anangtûk jînga chu Juda senkhatngei an intûpkhôma, huongvâr an sina Paul an that mân chu ite sâkloi rang nêkloi rang tiin khomâk an insâma.

13 There were more than forty men who formed this conspiracy.

Ma anga tho ngei hi mi sômminli nêkin an tama.

14 They went to the chief priests and the elders and said, “We have put ourselves under a great curse, to eat nothing until we have killed Paul.

Hanchu anni ngei hah ochaisingei le upangei kôm an sea, “Paul kin that mân chu ite sâkloi rang nêkloi rangin khomâk kin insâm ke ani zoi.

15 Now, therefore, let the council tell the chief captain to bring him down to you, as if you would decide his case more precisely. As for us, we are ready to kill him before he comes here.”

Masikin atûn hin, nangnin roijêkpungei le a roi asa uola jêk rang angin Paul hi nin kôm juong tuong rangin Rom râlmi ulientak kôm chong hong pêk roi, nin kôm a juong tung mân khom lei that rangin kin insiem suo ke ani zoi,” an tia.

16 But Paul's sister's son heard that they were lying in wait, so he went and entered the fortress and told Paul.

Hannirese ma thurchingei hah Paul a tupa'n a lei rieta, kulpui sûnga a va lûta, Paul a va rîla.

17 Paul called one of the centurions and said, “Take this young man to the chief captain, for he has something to tell him.”

Hanchu Paul han râlmi razakhat ruoipu inkhat a koia, “Hi ruotharte hi râlmi ulientak kôm tuong roh, râlmi ulientak kôma chong khat ril rang a dôn,” a tipea.

18 So the centurion took the young man and brought him to the chief captain and said, “Paul the prisoner called me to him, and asked me to bring this young man to you. He has something to say to you.”

Râlmi ulientakpu kôm a tuonga, “Intâng ina ompu Paul han mi koia hi ruotharte hi no kôm hong thak rangin mi tia, no kôm hin chong inkhat ril rang a dôn tiin chong mi be sa,” a tia.

19 The chief captain took him by the hand to a private place and asked him, “What is it that you have to tell me?”

Râlmi ulientak han a kut a sûra, mun ânkilna uola a tuonga “Imo mi ril rang no dôn,” tiin a rekela.

20 The young man said, “The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring down Paul tomorrow to the council, as if they were going to ask more precisely about his case.

Ama han, “Juda rachamneipungei Paul a roi hi adik uola jêk rang tiin nangtûka roijêkpungei kôma tuong rang minlêmin nang an hong zong rang ani.

21 But do not give in to them, because there are more than forty men who are lying in wait for him. They have called a curse down on themselves, neither to eat nor to drink until they have killed him. Even now they are ready, waiting for consent from you.”

Hannirese an chong lei don no roh, an lâia mi sômminli nêka tam uolin Paul an that mân chu ite sâkloi rang nêkloi rang tiin chong an inkhâm, atûn hin that rangin an insiem chak kêng ani zoi no chong vai ke an ngâk,” a tipea.

22 So the chief captain let the young man go, after instructing him, “Tell no one that you have said these things to me.”

Râlmi ulientak han, “Hi thurchi hi ko kôma ni misîr pêna chu tute kôm misîr khâi no roh,” tiin chong a bea. Male ruotharte hah a min se zoi.

23 Then he called to him two of the centurions and said, “Get two hundred soldiers ready to go as far as Caesarea, and seventy horsemen also, and two hundred spearmen. You will leave at the third hour of the night.”

Hanchu, “Râlmi razanik ruoipu inik a kôia, avien jân, dârkuo dôrin Caesarea se rangin râlmi razanik le, sakor chung chuong thei sômsari le isei a chôi râlmi razanik insiem roi,

24 He also ordered them to provide animals which Paul could ride, and to take him safely to Felix the governor.

Mapêna han Felix kôm a tung ngêt theina rangin, Paul a chuongna rang sakorngei khom mintuo pe sa rangin chong a be sa zoi.”

25 Then he wrote a letter like this:

Male Râlmi ulienpu han, hi anghin lekhamuthuon a mizieka.

26 “Claudius Lysias to the most excellent Governor Felix, greetings.

“Claudius Lysias Râiôt jâ omtak Felix: chibai a pêk.

27 This man was arrested by the Jews and was about to be killed by them, when I came upon them with soldiers and rescued him, since I learned that he was a Roman citizen.

Hi miriem hih Judangei an sûra, that rang an ti lâitakin ka râlmingei juong kêlsuo rangin ke sea, Rom mi ani ti ki riet sikin ko hong sanminjôka.

28 I wanted to know why they accused him, so I took him down to their council.

An nônna bi riet rang ku nuom sikin, an roijêkpungei kôm khom ku tuonga.

29 I learned that he was being accused about questions concerning their own law, but that there was no accusation against him that deserved death or imprisonment.

Anni an balama a lekti sikin an nôn pai ani ti ki rieta, hannirese thi rak rang dôr le intâng ina omna rang dôr ite minchâi mak.

30 Then it was made known to me that there was a plot against the man, so I immediately sent him to you, and instructed his accusers also to bring their charges against him in your presence. Farewell.”

Male Judangei that rangin an pût tit ti min rîla, masikin no kôm ku juongtîr kelen ani. A nônpungei khom a thurchi misîr rang a nônpungei murdi chu no kôm hong misîr rangin chong ke pêk ngei,” a tia.

31 So the soldiers obeyed their orders. They took Paul and brought him by night to Antipatris.

Hanchu râlmingeiin a chongpêk angin Paul hah an tuonga mani jân han Antipatris khuo an tungpuia.

32 On the next day, most of the soldiers left the horsemen to go with him and they themselves returned to the fortress.

Anangtûka chu râlmi kea se ngei hah chu rukulpui tieng an kîr nôka, sakor chunga chuong mingei vai hah Paul sepui tit rangin an oma.

33 When the horsemen reached Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they also presented Paul to him.

Hanchu Caesarea an tuonga, Râiôt kôm lekha hah an pêka, male Paul ha khom a kuta an bang kelena.

34 When the governor read the letter, he asked what province Paul was from. When he learned that he was from Cilicia,

Râiôt'n lekha hah a pore suole chu Paul omna ram a rekela, Cililia ram mi ani ti a riet lechu a kôm,

35 he said, “I will hear you fully when your accusers come here.” Then he commanded him to be kept in Herod's government headquarters.

“Nang nônpungei an juong tung lehan no roi hih keiman rangâi ki tih,” a tipea. Hanchu Paul hah râiôt omna munpuia han dara vêng bang rangin chong a pêk ngeia.
