Acts 18
1 After this he left Athens and came to Corinth.
Erah lih dophi, Pool Ethen nawa Korin ni wangta.
2 Here he found a Jew, a native of Pontus, of the name of Aquila. He and his wife Priscilla had recently come from Italy because of Claudius's edict expelling all the Jews from Rome. So Paul paid them a visit;
Erah ni Jehudiite wasiit Akuila ngeh ih chomuita, heh Poontus ni tup arah angta, nengnyi heh minuh Prisilla ah langla, Luuwanglong Kladius ih Room hah nawa Jehudi loong ah dokphan rum kano erah ngangah ih Itali nawa ra nyuutaha. Eno Pool ah erah nyi damdi,
3 and because he was of the same trade--that of tent-maker--he lodged with them and worked with them.
ngunbi suh nok roonghoon waktong wangta, tiimnge liidi Pool uh nengnyi likhiikkhiik ih hetui hewok raang ih nok hoon nawa ngun kabiita.
4 But, Sabbath after Sabbath, he preached in the synagogue and tried to win over both Jews and Greeks.
Pool Jehudi rangsoomnok ni Naangtongsa rookweh Jehudi nyia Grik damdi roongwaan leh kataat nuune rumta.
5 Now at the time when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was preaching fervently and was solemnly telling the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.
Mesidonia nawa Silas nyia Timothi ah thoknyu kano, Pool ih saapoot ah saarookwet Rangte tiit baat suh kota, Jehudi loong suh Jisu juuba Kristo ngeh ih baat rumta.
6 But upon their opposing him with abusive language, he shook his clothes by way of protest, and said to them, "Your ruin will be upon your own heads. I am not responsible: in future I will go among the Gentiles."
Mina loong ah ih ethih ethih jeng rum ano Pool suh liirum kano, neng jeng daan lakbi ah heh nyuh dowa botla ah jaabuh ano li rumta, “Sen mat e an bah sen teeteewah suh joong an! Nga mat tah angka, Arah dophi bah ngah Ranglajatte taangko ih kah ang.”
7 So he left the place and went to the house of a person called Titius Justus, a worshipper of the true God. His house was next door to the synagogue.
Erah lih adi neng re dowa doksoon kah ano, Ranglajatte mina Rangte rangsoomte ih hoon arah, heh men Taitias Justus kapoon rumta nok ni tong kata; heh nok ah Jehudi rangsoomnok reeni angta.
8 And Crispus, the Warden of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, and so did all his household; and from time to time many of the Corinthians who heard Paul believed and received baptism.
Kispus ah Jehudi rangsoomnok ni mihak phokhoh angta, heh teewah nyia heh jaatang loongtang Teesu hanpiite ang rumta; Korin ni uh Rangte jengkhaap ah chaat rum ano hanpiite rapne ih dong ano ju ah tem ih rumta.
9 And, in a vision by night, the Lord said to Paul, "Dismiss your fears: go on speaking, and do not give up.
Pheesiit Pool suh motmang ni heh Teesu ih baatta, “An nakcho uh, erah nang ebah larit haat thang ih baat ba jangbaat theng,
10 I am with you, and no one shall attack you to injure you; for I have very many people in this city."
timnge liidi an damdi ngah eje. O ih uh tajen thet haatru; samnuthung adi nga mih rapne ih je ah.”
11 So Paul remained in Corinth for a year and six months, teaching among them the Message of God.
Erah raangtaan ih Pool paangsiit paangthom tongthiin ano, mina loong asuh Rangte Jengkhaap ah nyootsoot thiin rumta.
12 But when Gallio became Proconsul of Greece, the Jews with one accord made a dead set at Paul, and brought him before the court.
Akaia hah ni Gallio ah, Room nawa kobono angta doh, Jehudi loong lomkhoon rum ano, Pool ah joh ih rumta; eno mat hoon thengni siitkaat rumta.
13 "This man," they said, "is inducing people to offer unlawful worship to God."
“Arah mih” rah ih seng “Hootthe ni lajeeka rah Rangte rangsoom thuk suh miloong asuh laatbaat rumha!”
14 But, when Paul was about to begin his defence, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it had been some wrongful act or piece of cunning knavery I might reasonably have listened to you Jews.
Pool ah jeng ih ang ngeh taat thun adi Gallio ih Jehudi loong asuh liita, “Arah matthih changkhah tiit ang dobah, Ngah ih mat ah hoon etheng tang Jehudi noksong loong.”
15 But since these are questions about words and names and your Law, you yourselves must see to them. I refuse to be a judge in such matters."
Enoothong, sen loong ah jengkhaap thoidi nyia sen Hootthe tungdi ba daanmui lan, erah tiit abah sensen ih hoonjih. Arah likhiik ah ngah ih tapaat korumra!”
16 So he ordered them out of court.
Eno matpaat theng nawa phanhaat rumta.
17 Then the people all set upon Sosthenes, the Warden of the synagogue, and beat him severely in front of the court. Gallio did not concern himself in the least about this.
Erah lih adi Jehudi rangsoomnok dowa mihak phokhoh, Sosthens ah joh rum ano mat hoon theng nokka adi nobuh rumta. Enoothong tiim ih rum abah uh Gallio ah tasoot saamta.
18 After remaining a considerable time longer in Corinth, Paul took leave of the brethren and set sail for Syria; and Priscilla and Aquila were with him. He had shaved his head at Cenchreae, because he was bound by a vow.
Hanpiite loong damdi Pool Korin hani rekamdook tongthiinta, eno Prisilla nyia Akuila damdi Siria ni juulam ih daan soon wangta. Seneria ni maang daansoon kaadi, heh ih thoomhoon thoidi heh khoh ah suihaat eta.
19 They put in at Ephesus, and there Paul left his companions behind. As for himself, he went to the synagogue and had a discussion with the Jews.
Ephesas ni thokrum ano, Pool ih Prisilla nyi Akuila ah thiinhaat ih nyuuta. Pool Jehudi rangsoomnok ni kah ano, Jehudi loong damdi roongwaan kata.
20 When they asked him to remain longer he did not consent,
Miloong ah ih rekam tongthiin taatbaat rumta, eno Pool tanookta.
21 but took leave of them with the promise, "I will return to you, God willing." So he set sail from Ephesus.
Erah nang ebah Pool ih kaat elang ngeh ih baatthiin rum ano amah jeng thiinta, “Rangte tenthun mongtham ang abah sen jiinnah we ngaakwang ehang.” Erah baat rum ano Ephesas nawa juulam ih daansoon kata.
22 Landing at Caesarea, he went up to Jerusalem and inquired after the welfare of the Church, and then went down to Antioch.
Pool Kaisiria ni thok ano, Jerusalem chaas ni kata, eno jengseera ano, Entiok ni wangta.
23 After spending some time in Antioch, Paul set out on a tour, visiting the whole of Galatia and Phrygia in order, and strengthening all the disciples.
Erah ni chomroe tongthiin ano, Galitia nyia Phrigia hah lam ih wang ano chaankot jengkhaap ah hanpiite loong asuh jeng koh thiinta.
24 Meanwhile a Jew named Apollos came to Ephesus. He was a native of Alexandria, a man of great learning and well versed in the Scriptures.
Erah tokdi Korin Jehudi mih wasiit, heh men ah Apollos, erah warah Alejandria ni tup dowa, eno Ephesas ni ra taha. Heh tiitwah loong angta eno Rangte Jengkhaap uh jat eta.
25 He had been instructed by word of mouth in the way of the Lord, and, being full of burning zeal, he used to speak and teach accurately the facts about Jesus, though he knew of no baptism but John's.
Teesu lampo ni khoom suh heh renbaat choi nyia nyootsoot choi angta, erah thoidi Jisu thoilam ah naririh ih nyootsootta. Erabah uh, heh ih Joon Juutem luulu ba jatta.
26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue, and Priscilla and Aquila, after hearing him, took him home and explained God's way to him more accurately.
Heh Jehudi rangsoomnok ni lacho laphaan ih phang jengkongta. Prisilla nyia Akuilla ih heh jeng ah chaat nyu ano, nengnyi damdi nok ni siitwan nyuuta, eno Rangte lampo ah rapniine ih hukbaat nyuuta.
27 Then, as he had made up his mind to cross over into Greece, the brethren wrote to the disciples in Corinth begging them to give him a kindly welcome. Upon his arrival he rendered valuable help to those who through grace had believed;
Erah lih adi Apollos Akaia ni kaat chungta, erah raangtaan ih Ephesas dowa hanpiite loong ah ih Akaia nok hah suh rapniine ih sokboi an ngeh ih le ah raangmaat ih rumta. Apollos thokkhoom ano, Rangte minchan di kristaan loong ah raangtaan ih neng moot chosok suh rapne ese angta.
28 for he powerfully and in public overcame the Jews in argument, proving to them from the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.
Tiimnge liidi, Apollos ah Jehudi loong damdi rapne daanmui ano Rangteele nawa ih Jisu ah Kristo ngeh ih jatthuk rumta.
