Acts 13

1 Now there were in Antioch, in the Church there--as Prophets and teachers--barnabas, Symeon surnamed 'the black,' Lucius the Cyrenaean, Manaen (who was Herod the Tetrarch's foster-brother), and Saul.

Anyimo udenge unigura sa wa rani vantakiya, anu ukurzuzo utize nan anu dungura wa rani. We wani Barnabas, saminu (sa a tisa we agenu) nan lukiya Barkurame nan manayin (desa wa hiri nigoo me nan ugomo Hiridus) nan shawulu.

2 While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for Me, now at once, Barnabas and Saul, for the work to which I have called them."

Uganiya sa zin ni nonzo na Asere nan unu canti ikono, abini me bibe bi Asere bi dusa bi gu, ''suso ri mi Barnabas nan shawulu bati katuma me sa ma tit we wa wuzi.''

3 So, after fasting and prayer and the laying on of hands, they let them go.

Sa nigura me na mara wa wuzi biringira nan u'inta ikoma, wa tari we tari wa gun we dusa.

4 They therefore, being thus sent out by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleuceia, and from there sailed to Cyprus.

Abini me shawulu nan Barnabas wa dusa wa kunna imum sa bibe bi ugomo Asere ba, buki wa dusa uhana usulukiya; wa kafa udusa ani zabu ku kuburus.

5 Having reached Salamis, they began to announce God's Message in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John as their assistant.

Uganiya sa wa raa anipin ni usalami, wa dunguri tize ti ugomo Asere udenge unigura umayahudawa, waa zin ingoo me nan Yahaya Markus unu benki uwe.

6 When they had gone through the whole length of the island as far as Paphos, they there met with a Jewish magician and false prophet, Bar-Jesus by name,

Sa wa kafa anizabu nu Bafusa, wa dusa wakem ure ubire uyahuadwa una niza Bat Yeshua.

7 who was a friend of the Proconsul Sergius Paulus. The Proconsul was a man of keen intelligence. He sent for Barnabas and Saul, and asked to be told God's Message.

Unu umakiri nanu desa mazi nigoo me nan unu kkpanku udang me sajus Bulus unu rusa mani. Ma dusa ma titi shawalu nan Barnabas barki maa nyari ma kunna tize ta Asere.

8 But Elymas (or 'the Magician,' for such is the meaning of the name) opposed them, and tried to prevent the Proconsul from accepting the faith.

Me Elimas ''ubire mani (imum sa nize nime me na buka ini) ma wuzi ni'eru nan we; Ma nyari ma hunze unu kpanku udang nibaba ni'inko iriba.

9 Then Saul, who is also called Paul, was filled with the Holy Spirit, and, fixing his eyes on Elymas,

Abini me shawulu desa me Bulus maa myinci in bibe ba ASere ma riki me aje.

10 said, "You who are full of every kind of craftiness and unscrupulous cunning--you son of the Devil and foe to all that is right--will you never cease to misrepresent the straight paths of the Lord?

Ma dusa magu, ''hu vana unu uburi mani, u myinci unu hunzuze abanga nan imum iburi. Hu uruni u'eru uwuza utimum ti riri mani uda kini we umangara uti na tu ugomo Asere ba?''

11 The Lord's hand is now upon you, and you will be blind for a time and unable to see the light of day." Instantly there fell upon him a mist and a darkness, and, as he walked about, he begged people to lead him by the hand.

Ana me, tari ta Asere be azesere anice ni we me, udi cukuno urubo. Uda ira we uwui ba ana me aku uganiya ku cing, ''Abini me uputuru nan maree wa korso kase unyara anabu sa wadi benki me.

12 Then the Proconsul, seeing what had happened, believed, being struck with amazement at the teaching of the Lord.

Sa unu kpanku udang ma ira imum be sa ya kem ma dusa ma nya uhem a tize ti ugomo Asere.

13 From Paphos, Paul and his party put out to sea and sailed to Perga in Pamphylia. John, however, left them and returned to Jerusalem.

Bulus nan aroni ame me wa barka wa dusa wa kafa anyimo ujirgi umei usuro Bafusa uhana Fijiya u bamfiliya. Yahaya maa ceki we ma kuri uhana a urshalima.

14 But they themselves, passing through from Perga, came to Antioch in Pisidia. Here, on the Sabbath day, they went into the synagogue and sat down.

Bulus nan aroni ameme wadusa usuro firjiya uhana u'antakiya amanyanga Bisidiya. Abini me wa ribe udenge unigura uni wui Asabar wa cukuno.

15 After the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the Wardens of the synagogue sent word to them. "Brethren," they said, "if you have anything encouraging to say to the people, speak."

Sa amara ubasa i hori i'uinso utize nan anu ukurzizo utize, anu adang udenge ubi gura wa dusa wa tuburko kadura wa gu, ''ni henu, ingi izin kare kadura ka unya uni kara ahira anabu i nya.''

16 So Paul rose, and motioning with his hand for silence, said, "Israelites, and you others who fear God, pay attention to me.

Bulus ma dusa ma hiri ma bezi wen in tari magu, ''shi anu u'isra'ila nan shi andesa iwono Asere, kuna nin.

17 The God of this people of Israel chose our forefathers, and made the people great during their stay in Egypt, until with wondrous power He brought them out from that land.

Ugomo Asere u'israi'la maa zauka acokoro aru, maa kinki ugbardang uweme uganiya me sa rani umasar nan usuro akatuma kadang ka meme maa suso we anyimo me.

18 For a period of about forty years, He fed them, like a nurse, in the Desert.

Maa nati iriba nan we uhana tiwe akuri anaze anyimo anija.

19 Then, after overthrowing seven nations in the land of Canaan, He divided that country among them as their inheritance for about four hundred and fifty years;

Sama mara uhua uti pinping tini usunare a ma nyanga mu kan'ana maa nya acokoro aru ukalu.

20 and afterwards He gave them judges down to the time of the Prophet Samuel.

Vat timum tiginome taa kem anyimo ati we akuri anazi unu cibi sa taa aki sa igono me ya aka ugomo maa wuzi u'inko utize nan se sa ya biki uganiya u'aye samaila unu ukurzuzo utize maa ē.

21 Next they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a Benjamite, who reigned forty years.

Anabu wa dusa wa iki wa gu anya we ugomo, ugomo Asere ma nya we saul vana ukish, unu unilem ni Benjamin maa cukuno we ugomo uhana utiwe akuri anazi.

22 After removing him, He raised up David to be their king, to whom He also bore witness when He said, "'I have found David the son of Jesse, a man I love, who will obey all My commands.'

Ugomo Asere maa tuzo me ukpanku utigomo, ma hirza Dauda ma cukuno ugomo uwe.

23 "It is from among David's descendants that God, in fulfilment of His promise, has raised up a Saviour for Israel, even Jesus.

Usuro ubisana bi unu ugino me, ugomo Asere maa suso Yeso unu bura, gusi u'inko sa anu inko.

24 Before the coming of Jesus, John had proclaimed to all the people of Israel a baptism of repentance.

Igene me ya kem uduku u aye u Yeso u'e, Yahaya ma buu abanga uzurso ukaba utize wa anu Isara'ila.

25 But John, towards the end of his career, repeatedly asked the people, "'What do you suppose me to be? I am not the Christ. But there is One coming after me whose sandal I am not worthy to unfasten.'

Sa Yahaya ma mara katuma ka meme, ma dusa magu, ''ibasa mi aveni? Daki mi mani ba. Kunna nin uye ma rani sa ma'eze adumo am de besa in bari in sofi tizin ta kwatak ameme ba.

26 "Brethren, descendants of the family of Abraham, and all among you who fear God, to us has this Message of salvation been sent.

Ni henu, ahana usuro ubisana bi Ibrahim, nan an desa wa tarsa Asere anyimo ashi me, barki haru wani a nyan duru kadura kubura kageme.

27 For the people of Jerusalem and their rulers, by the judgement they pronounced on Jesus, have actually fulfilled the predictions of the Prophets which are read Sabbath after Sabbath, through ignorance of those predictions and of Him.

Barki an desa wa aki anyimo urushalima, nan anu atigomo tiwe me, daki wa rusa me ba, wa kuri wa myinca uboo anu kurzuzo utize ta Asere sa a basa konde uya uwui wa Asabar abanga uhuna ume.

28 Without having found Him guilty of any capital offence they urged Pilate to have Him put to death;

Vat sa daki wa kem imum besa idi wu wa hume ba, wa dusa iki Bilatus ma hu me.

29 and when they had carried out everything which had been written about Him, they took Him down from the cross and laid Him in a tomb.

Sa wa mara me asesere utiti me sa agangirka me, wa soki anyimo icau.

30 "But God raised Him from the dead.

Ugomo Asere ma hirza me usuro iwono.

31 And, after a few days, He appeared to the people who had gone up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem and are now witnesses concerning Him to the Jews.

Anabu sa wa e nigo me nan me usuro ugalili nan urshalima wa meki uhura ume uhana uti ye gbardang. Anu aginome we wani anu tonno umeme ana me.

32 And we bring you the Good News about the promise made to our forefathers,

Ta ayen shi in utize ti urunta, aban utira utize me sa a wuzi acoro ashime ni.

33 that God has amply fulfilled it to our children in raising up Jesus; as it is also written in the second Psalm, 'Thou art My Son: to-day I have become Thy Father.'

Ugomo Asere ceki duru utira utize ti ge me. Barki anime ma hirza Yeso usuro icau gusi uzina me sa tizi anyimo uzabura ukure, ''hu vana um mani kani me, ma cukuno acoo aweme kani me.''

34 And as to His having raised Him from among the dead, never again to be in the position of one soon to return to decay, He speaks thus: 'I will give you the holy and trustworthy promises made to David.'

Imum sa ya kuri iwu ahirza usuro icau ine ini kati nipum nimeme niwici, ma buki ana, ''indi nya shi ure aje u Dauda ulau, tikadura.''

35 Because in another Psalm also He says, 'Thou wilt not give up Thy Holy One to undergo decay.'

Ige me ure uzabura, ''be sa ya wuna ma kuri ma buka a ure uzabura, ''uda aki unu lau um wici ba.

36 For David, after having been useful to his own generation in accordance with God's purpose, did fall asleep, was gathered to his forefathers, and did undergo decay.

Sa Dauda ma wuzi nirere ni tarsa Asere anyimo iriba ime me nan imum besa ugomo Asere ma unyara, maa wi, avati nigoo me nan acoro ameme, maa wici.

37 But He whom God raised to life underwent no decay.

Desa ugomo Asere maa hirza daki maa iri uwuco ba.

38 "Understand therefore, brethren, that through this Jesus forgiveness of sins is announced to you;

Ni henu, rusani usuro unu ugino me uni, adunguri shi tize ti ugomo Asere barki aperkin in madini mashi me.

39 and in Him every believer is absolved from all offences, from which you could not be absolved under the Law of Moses.

Usuro umeme uni vat desa ma nya nice made kem ubura usuro u'inko utize ti Musa daki ta ceki fong ba.

40 Beware, then, lest what is spoken in the Prophets should come true of you:

Barki anime tarsa nin seke in timum sa anu kurzu utize ta Asere sa waa buki kati myinca ace ashi me.

41 'Behold, you despisers, be astonished and perish, because I am carrying on a work in your time--a work which you will utterly refuse to believe, though it be fully declared to you.'"

Shi anu zatu kunna utize, idi wu hem, i kunna biyau, i kuri imari, barki in zin katuma atiye tishi me, katuma sa ida hem ba, inki uye ma buka shi.

42 As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people earnestly begged to have all this repeated to them on the following Sabbath.

Usuro wan Bulus nan Barnabas waazigino me, anu wa dusa wa meki utira uwe tari, bati wa kuri wa buu usasana utize tigino me roni Asabar ukuro.

43 And, when the congregation had broken up, many of the Jews and of the devout converts from heathenism continued with Paul and Barnabas, who talked to them and urged them to hold fast to the grace of God.

Sa biringira ba mara, mayahudawa gbardang nan an desa wa kabi tize ta mayahudawa wa tarsi bulus nan Barnabas, wa gbarika uguna wa rī aje in katuma ka Asere.

44 On the next Sabbath almost the whole population of the city came together to hear the Lord's Message.

Sa Asabar akuro vat nipin wa gurna bati wa kunna tize ta Asere.

45 Seeing the crowds, the Jews, filled with angry jealousy, opposed Paul's statements and abused him.

Sa mayahudawa wa ira nigura na anabu, wa myinca in ni riba ibiit (ni'eru). Wa dusa boo utize tizenzen anice ni tize ti Bulus wa zogizi me.

46 Then, throwing off all reserve, Paul and Barnabas said, "We were bound to proclaim God's Message to you first. But since you spurn it and judge yourselves to be unworthy of the Life of the Ages--well, we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)

Bulus nan Barnabas wa wuzi tize in ni iriba ihu wa gu, ''ya wunna uri atubi she wani tize ta Asere shi ya gashi tini ya tuburko ni tini ani kira, ya kurzo ni ace ashi me gusi andesa daki wa bari u kem uvengize uzati umarsa akura Asere ba, kunna nin, tidi gamirka uhana ahira anu zatu urusa Asere.'' (aiōnios g166)

47 For such is the Lord's command to us. "'I have placed Thee,' He says of Christ, 'as a light to the Gentiles, in order that Thou mayest be a Saviour as far as the remotest parts of the earth.'"

Barki anime, ugomo Asere ma guna, ''ma wuna we u cukuno masaa ahira andesa wa ta we Asere ba, bati ucukuno una ukem ubura antimo unee vat.''

48 The Gentiles listened with delight and extolled the Lord's Message; and all who were pre-destined to the Life of the Ages believed. (aiōnios g166)

Sa anu zatu rusa Asere wa kunna abanga age me, wa wuzi iriba irum, wa nonziko tize ugomo Asere. Maroo ma an de be sa amu inko uguna wa kem uvengize uzatu marsa wa hem. (aiōnios g166)

49 So the Lord's Message spread through the whole district.

Tize ti ugomo Asere taa ribe vat anyimo a manyanga me.

50 But the Jews influenced the gentlewomen of rank who worshipped with them, and also the leading men in the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas and drove them out of the district.

Sa ya cukuno anime, mayahudawa wa dusa wa turi ane age be sa wa wito ace awe atize ta Asere nan anu kaba wan ananu anipin, imum i ge me yaa hunguko ijasi anice ni Bulus nan Barnabas, wa gidi we anyimo a manyanga ma we me.

51 But they shook off the dust from their feet as a protest against them and came to Iconium;

Bulus nan Barnbas wa dusa wa zamir ususur me sa wa rani atbuna ti we me, ya bezi imum ubasa, wa dusa uhana ikoniya.

52 and as for the disciples, they were more and more filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.

Anu tarsa u Yeso waa myinca ni ni riba irum nan bibe bi lau ba Asere.
