< Acts 20 >

1 After the uproar had ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, took leave of them, and departed to go into Macedonia.
Aa naho nijihetse i koràkey, le nampihitrife’ i Paoly mb’ ama’e o mpiòkeo naho nifetrehe’e vaho nionjoñe mb’e Makedonia añe.
2 When he had gone through those parts and had encouraged them with many words, he came into Greece.
Nirangae’e o taneo, nañosike ondatio an-tsara maro vaho nandoake e Grisia añe,
3 When he had spent three months there, and a plot was made against him by Jews as he was about to set sail for Syria, he determined to return through Macedonia.
Nañialo telo volañe añe re. Aa naho nivoñoñ’ aze o Tehodao ie ho nijon-dakañe mb’e Sirià mb’eo, le sinafiri’e ty hibalik’ am-pirangañe i Makedonia.
4 These accompanied him as far as Asia: Sopater of Beroea, Aristarchus and Secundus of the Thessalonians, Gaius of Derbe, Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus of Asia.
Nindre ama’e t’i Sopatera ana’ i Pìro nte Berea naho i Aristarko naho i Sekondo nte Tesalonika naho i Gaio nte Derbe, le i Timoty naho i Tikìko vaho i Trofimo nte-Asia.
5 But these had gone ahead, and were waiting for us at Troas.
Niaolo anay iereo vaho nandiñe e Troasy ao.
6 We sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and came to them at Troas in five days, where we stayed seven days.
Aa naho niheneke o andro-Mofo-po-dalivaio le nijon-dakañe boak’e Filipy zahay; ie nimodo ty andro lime le nifanampe am’iereo e Troasy ao vaho nitambats’ ao fito andro.
7 On the first day of the week, when the disciples were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day; and continued his speech until midnight.
Ie tsofotse ty andro’ i Sabotsey, ie fa nivory hamolake mofo o mpiòkeo, le nitaroñe am’iereo t’i Paoly, fa satri’e ty hiavotse amy loak’ àndroy, aa le nitolom-pilañoñe ampara’ te antets’ aleñe re.
8 There were many lights in the upper room where we were gathered together.
Nimaro ty jiro am-batsa nivoria’ay ao,
9 A certain young man named Eutychus sat in the window, weighed down with deep sleep. As Paul spoke still longer, being weighed down by his sleep, he fell down from the third floor and was taken up dead.
le nitobok’ an-dalan-kede eo ty ajalahy atao Eotika naho nikonkoñe, aa ie tinohitohi’ i Paoly i lañona’ey, le nilañake ty roro i ajalahiy naho nikapotrake intelo riha mb’an-tane mb’eo vaho fola-manta te nongaheñe.
10 Paul went down and fell upon him, and embracing him said, “Don’t be troubled, for his life is in him.”
Nizotso mb’eo t’i Paoly nihohok’ amy ajalahiy, ie nifihine’e, le hoe re, Ko hembañe, fa ama’e ty fiai’e!
11 When he had gone up, had broken bread and eaten, and had talked with them a long while, even until break of day, he departed.
Niañambone indraike t’i Paoly namolake mofo naho nikama, le nitolom-pitaroñe ampara’ te niporea ty maraindray vaho nienga.
12 They brought the boy in alive, and were greatly comforted.
Nindese’ iareo veloñe, am-panintsiñañe, i ajalahiy.
13 But we, going ahead to the ship, set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there; for he had so arranged, intending himself to go by land.
Fa niaolo aze an-dakan-jahay, nionjoñe mb’e Aso mb’eo, hampijoñe i Paoly añe amy namotoaña’ey, ie nañavelo am-pandia.
14 When he met us at Assos, we took him aboard and came to Mitylene.
Aa ie nifanampe ama’ay e Aso ao, le najo’ay vaho nitolom-b’e Mitilena mb’eo.
15 Sailing from there, we came the following day opposite Chios. The next day we touched at Samos and stayed at Trogyllium, and the day after we came to Miletus.
Nionjoñe boak’ao zahay le niporopotìtse tandrife’ i Kio te loak’ àndro. Amy hamarai’ey ka le nivotrake e Samo, vaho nandoake e Mileto añe amy loak’ àndroy.
16 For Paul had determined to sail past Ephesus, that he might not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hastening, if it were possible for him, to be in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.
Sinafiri’ i Paoly ty handrioñe i Efesosy tsy handrìta’e andro maro e Asia ao, fa sinda te hañambeñe ty andro’ i Halimampoloy e Ierosaleme ao.
17 From Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called to himself the elders of the assembly.
Nampihitrike Efesosy añe boak’e Mileto re, nikoike o beim-Pivorio.
18 When they had come to him, he said to them, “You yourselves know, from the first day that I set foot in Asia, how I was with you all the time,
Ie nitotsak’ ama’e, le hoe re: Fohi’ areo, boak’amy andro valoha’e nivotrahako Asia atoiy, ty fivelomako ama’ areo ze hene sà nitraofan-tika rezay,
19 serving the Lord with all humility, with many tears, and with trials which happened to me by the plots of the Jews;
nitoroñe i Talè am-pirèhan-troke naho ranomaso maro ndra te teo ty fitsohañe ahy amo fikinià’ o Tehodaoo;
20 how I didn’t shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, teaching you publicly and from house to house,
tsy nitsikifotse tsy hitaroñako ze mete mañasoa, fe nanoro anahareo an-tameañe vaho ki-anjomba-anjomba.
21 testifying both to Jews and to Greeks repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus.
Nafèko amo Jiosio naho amo Grikao ty fisolohoañe aman’Añahare naho ty fatokisañe Iesoà Talèntika Norizañey.
22 Now, behold, I go bound by the Spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there;
Ie henanekeo, oniño te mionjoñe mb’e Ierosaleme mb’eo an-troke mirohy le nofiko o raha mete hizò ahy añe;
23 except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions wait for me.
naho tsy te mañatahata ahy amy ze rova iaby i Arofo Masiñey t’ie mandiñe rohy naho sarerake.
24 But these things don’t count; nor do I hold my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to fully testify to the Good News of the grace of God.
Fe tsy volilieko ho vara amako ty fiaiko, hañenefako an-drebeke ty filaisako naho i fitoroñañe rinambeko am’ Iesoà Talèy, t'ie mitaroñe i talili-soa’ o falalàn’ Añahareoy.
25 “Now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I went about preaching God’s Kingdom, will see my face no more.
Inao, apotako henane zao te tsy hahaisake ty tareheko ka nahareo nindre amako amy fitaroñako i fifeheañeiy.
26 Therefore I testify to you today that I am clean from the blood of all men,
Ataliliko ama’ areo androany, te malio tahin-draho amy ze hene lio’ ondaty,
27 for I didn’t shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.
le tsy nifimpìñe tsy hitaroñe ama’ areo ze fonga famerean’ Añahare.
28 Take heed, therefore, to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the assembly of the Lord and God which he purchased with his own blood.
Mitaoa, naho itaò o mpirai-lia’e iabio, o nampiandraze’ i Arofo Masiñeio, hamahana’ areo i Fivorin’ Añahare vinili’e amy lio’eiy.
29 For I know that after my departure, vicious wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
Apotako te izaho fa nienga, le hizilik’ ama’ areo ao o amboa romotseo vaho tsy hapo’e i lia-raikey.
30 Men will arise from among your own selves, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.
Toe hiboak’ ama’ areo ty ‘ndaty hiongake naho hivolan-kamengohañe, hanintake ty mpiòke ho am’iereo.
31 Therefore watch, remembering that for a period of three years I didn’t cease to admonish everyone night and day with tears.
Aa le mitomira! naho mitiahia te nañeneke ty telo taoñe iraho tsy nitroatse namere anahareo haleñe naho handro an-dranomaso.
32 Now, brothers, I entrust you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
Aa ie henaneo, tolorako aman’ Añahare naho ami’ty Tsara’ i hasoa’ey, ie ty mahatomambao anahareo, hanolotse anjara lova amy ze hene ondaty navaheñe.
33 I coveted no one’s silver, gold, or clothing.
Tsy eo ty nikirañako volafoty ndra volamena ndra sarimbo.
34 You yourselves know that these hands served my necessities, and those who were with me.
Toe fohi’ areo te nañeneke o nipaiakoo naho o nitraok’ amakoo o tañako retoa.
35 In all things I gave you an example, that so laboring you ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
Fa nitoroako amy ze he’e amy fifanehafañe zay, ty hañimbà’ areo o malemeo, ie mitiahy ty tsara’ i Talè Iesoà manao ty hoe: Haha ty manjotso ta ty mandrambe.
36 When he had spoken these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
Ie niheneke i saontsi’ey, le nitongaleke vaho nitrao-pilolok’ am’iereo iaby.
37 They all wept freely, and fell on Paul’s neck and kissed him,
Sindre nirovetse, namontititse ty fititia’e naho nañondrok’ aze.
38 sorrowing most of all because of the word which he had spoken, that they should see his face no more. Then they accompanied him to the ship.
Loho nampihontoke iareo i tsara nanoe’e te tsy ho isa’ iereo ka i lahara’eiy; le nase­se’ iereo mb’ an-dakañe mb’eo.
