Acts 28
1 When we had escaped, then they learned that the island was called Malta.
Vdwlo ngonu dvpw lo linpv kudw, ngonu chintoku vv Malta bokpin vkunyi vla.
2 The natives showed us uncommon kindness; for they kindled a fire and received us all, because of the present rain and because of the cold.
Mooku gv nyi vdwv ngonua achialv bv ajinarum bv ritoku. Hoka nyido ngv hoto okv achialvbv sikarto, vkvlvgabv bunu vmv parto la okv ngonu mvnwng nga higu motoku.
3 But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened on his hand.
Paul takiotaram rvkgo darkamto okv vmv partoku vmvgv agu lokv hinla ikula Tabw sogo linto okv ninyigv laak lo leedak lwkto.
4 When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet Justice has not allowed to live.”
Mooku gv nyi vdwvka kaaria nyatoku Paul gv laak lo tabw sogo bvyo dubv kaatola okv bunu mimisitoku, “So nyi si gwngrw siyin gunyi, hv svmasa lo simato, vbvritola vjak sinamv ninyia topu kumare.”
5 However he shook off the creature into the fire, and wasn’t harmed.
Vbvritola Paul oguka ungv gvvmabv okv ninyigv laak lokv tabw am vmvlo orlwkto.
6 But they expected that he would have swollen or fallen down dead suddenly, but when they watched for a long time and saw nothing bad happen to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.
Bunu ninyia biungridw okv dvminmabv tapv la siridw vla kaaria nyato. Vbvritola achialvbv kaariaro kochingbv okv ninyia oguka riku mato, bunu mvngkur la okv minto, “hv Pwknvyarnv ako!”
7 Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us and courteously entertained us for three days.
Adu yomaku mooku lo ho Puplius gv rongo mooku meego dooto, bokpin gv nyigam kaiyachok nvgo. Hv ngonua alvbv aamuto ayala okv ninyi gvlo ngonu alu loum gv nyen bv ritoku.
8 The father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery. Paul entered in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.
Puplius gv abuv gadw lo karto, chilirampin lvvmala okv eeching chila Paul ninyigv karchung bv aatoku, ninyi, kumtoku, ninyigv laakv lakpo tvla okv ninyi mvpu jitoku.
9 Then when this was done, the rest also who had diseases in the island came and were cured.
Vdwlo sibv ripvkudw, bokpin gv kvvbi lvvmanv mvnwng ngv aakumto okv mvpu toku.
10 They also honored us with many honors; and when we sailed, they put on board the things that we needed.
Bunu mvnwng ngv ngonua amin awgo jitoku, vdwlo ngonu durup pvkudw, mooying vngtunglo ngonu ogugo mvngrung pvkudw bunu um vvpv jitoku.
11 After three months, we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose figurehead was “The Twin Brothers.”
Poolu pwkgum gv koching lo ngonu svpwlo vngraptoku Alekjandaria lokv aanvgo vbv minamgo “Pwknvyarnv anyi vnamgo,” ho gv bokpin lo kamching vdwa ho doonvgo.
12 Touching at Syracuse, we stayed there three days.
Ngonu Sirakas gv Pamtv lo vngchi toku okv alu loum go dootoku.
13 From there we circled around and arrived at Rhegium. After one day, a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,
Hokv ngonu vngrap la okv Regiam gv pamtv lo vngchi toku. Logo nvngaku dooriv mooko peelvbv rirapto, okv ngonugv Putioli banggu lo aalwk la lonyi lo.
14 where we found brothers, and were entreated to stay with them for seven days. So we came to Rome.
Ngonu mvngjwngnv meego kaapato hoka bunu minto hopta go lvkobv doola bvkv ngonua vla, vkvlvgabv ngonu Rom bv vngtoku.
15 From there the brothers, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.
Rom gv mvngjwngnv vdwa ngonugv lvkwng bv tvvpato okv aduadu gv Appius gv banggu bajar lokv okv hotel Tri Inns vnamgo ngonua paamuto. Vdwlo Paul bunua kaapa pvkudw, hv Pwknvyarnvnyi hartv toku okv kairungbv mintvmiru toku.
16 When we entered into Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard, but Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.
Vdwlo ngonu Rom lo vngchi pvkudw, Paulnyi atubonga dongu sumu toku sipai a ninyia dakgv motola.
17 After three days Paul called together those who were the leaders of the Jews. When they had come together, he said to them, “I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,
Alu loum gv koching bv Paul goklwkto Jius vdwgv rigv nvnga paami sidubv. Vdwlo bunu aakum tokudw, hv minto bunua, ngoogv Israel gv ajin richam vdwv, ngo ogugo gungnying malachin ngonugv nyi vdwv vmalo abuapa gv ridungsingdung rinama, ngo Jerusalem gv patwk lo tumto okv Roman vdwlo jilwkto.
18 who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.
Nga tvvkaro kochingbv, Roman vdwv nga topu nwngtoku, ogulvgavbolo bunu hoka nga mvki dubv oguguka mapa matoku.
19 But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.
Vbvritola vdwlo Jius vdwv maakv vpvdw sum, ngo kwngkwng alvbv dvbvyachoknyi koodwkkrwkla kooto, ngoogv atu nyi vdwa ngo gungnying go lwksu majeka.
20 For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.”
Vkvlvkwngbv ngo nam kaarwk sila okv lvkobv mindunv. Ogulvgavbolo ngo silu Israel nyi mvnwng gv mvngtinnam ninyigv lvgabv ngo laak gv rvngja sum gvvdunv.
21 They said to him, “We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.
Bunu ninyia mintoku, “Ngonu Judia lokv siti guka paama noogv lvkwnglo, ngonugv nyi akonvka Judia lokv aanv ngv ogu yunying alvmanv goka gvvlwkma noogv lvkwng lo.
22 But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against.”
Vbvritola ngonu tvvnwngdo noogv mvngnam am, ogulvgavbolo ngonu chindo nyi mvnwng ngv noogv so apum sum gungnying bv mindu.
23 When they had appointed him a day, many people came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying about God’s Kingdom, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning until evening.
Vkvlvgabv bunu alu go mirw pvvtoku Paulnyi paami sidubv, okv bunu nyitwng ngv alu lo aakumto Paul ogolo doopvdw. Arukamchi lokv arium lobv hv minjito ninyigv doina Pwknvyarnv gv Karv lvkwng lo, hv gwngkwto bunua Jisunyi mvngjwng modubv Moses gv Pvbv lokv okv nyijwk vdwgv lvknama minvla.
24 Some believed the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved.
Kvvgonv bunu mvngjwngto ninyigv minam lokv, vbvritola kvvgonv mvngjwngjvjv kuma toku.
25 When they didn’t agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one message: “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,
Vkvlvgabv bunu vngyu rapto, bunugv pingkolo tolwktoak minsu mabv rila, ho koching nga Paul gaamgo mindvto, Darwknv Dowv jvjvbv mindunv noogv abuapa nga nyijwk Aijaya lokv!
26 saying, ‘Go to this people and say, in hearing, you will hear, but will in no way understand. In seeing, you will see, but will in no way perceive.
Hoka hv mintoku, ‘Vngla okv minji lak so nyi sum: Nonu tvvre okv tvvriare, vbvritola vdwloka tvvchinma; nonu kaare okv kaariare vbvritola vdwloka kaachin mare,
27 For this people’s heart has grown callous. Their ears are dull of hearing. Their eyes they have closed. Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, then I would heal them.’
Ogulvgavbolo so nyi vdwsi mvngchin madu, okv bunu tvvnwng mabv tvvdu okv kaanwng mabv kaadu. Ho manv guilo, bunugv nyikv kaapare, bunugv nyarung ngv tvvpare, bunu mvngchin riku, okv bunu ngo gvlo aalwkre, Pwknvyarnv minto, okv ngo bunua mvpure.”’
28 “Be it known therefore to you that the salvation of God is sent to the nations, and they will listen.”
Okv Paul minyabv mintoku: “Nonuno chinto laka, Vkvlvgabv, ho Pwknvyarnv gv Turnam doinv Jentail vdwlo jilwk toku. Bunu vdwv tvvriare!”
29 When he had said these words, the Jews departed, having a great dispute among themselves.
Paul gv minro kochingbv, Jius vdwv bunugv pinkolo achialvbv larmi sudula vngyu toku.
30 Paul stayed two whole years in his own rented house and received all who were coming to him,
Anying nyingnyi go Paul atubongv dookudaku go morko jila doosuto, okv hoka Paul nyi vdwa yvvbunudw ninyia kaabv aanv mvnwng nga alvrungbv aamuto.
31 preaching God’s Kingdom and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.
