Acts 22
1 “Brothers and fathers, listen to the defence which I now make to you.”
LALAJE mañelo yan mañaena, jingog y dumefiendeyo pago guiya jamyo!
2 When they heard that he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, they were even more quiet. He said,
(Ya anae majungog na mancuinentuse sija ni y fino Hebreo, ninafanmamatquilo mas; ) ya ilegña:
3 “I am indeed a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, instructed according to the strict tradition of the law of our fathers, being zealous for God, even as you all are today.
Guajo magajet taotao na Judio, mafañagon Tarso, un siuda guiya Silisia; lao mapogsaeyo güine na siuda gui adeng Gamaliel, mafanagüeyo taemanoja y minagajet y lay y mañaenata, ya eggoyo para as Yuus, taegüenao iya jamyo pago na jaane.
4 I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women,
Ya jupetsigue sija gui este jinanao asta junafanmapuno, jugogode ya juentrerega gui catset y lalaje yan y famalaoan.
5 as also the high priest and all the council of the elders testify, from whom also I received letters to the brothers, and travelled to Damascus to bring them also who were there to Jerusalem in bonds to be punished.
Ya parejoja y magas mamale locue numaeyo testimonio, yan todo y manada y manamco: guinin iya sija locue nae manresibeyo catta para y mañelo, ya jumanaoyo para Damasco, para jucone ayo sija ni y sinedajo güije ya jugode guato Jerusalem para ufanmasapet.
6 “As I made my journey and came close to Damascus, about noon suddenly a great light shone around me from the sky.
Ya susede anae jumajanaoyo, ya esta jijotyo para Damasco gui taloane, enseguidas manina güije guinin y langet un dangculon candet gui oriyajo,
7 I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?’
Ya podongyo gui jilo tano, ya jujungog un inagang na ilegña nu guajo: Saulo, Saulo, sa jafa na unpetsisigueyo?
8 I answered, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ He said to me, ‘I am Yeshua of Nazareth, whom you persecute.’
Ya juope ilegco: Jayejao Señot? Ya ilegña nu güajo: Guajo si Jesus Nasareno ni y unpetsisigue.
9 “Those who were with me indeed saw the light and were afraid, but they didn’t understand the voice of him who spoke to me.
Ya ayo y mangachochongjo jalie magajet y candet, ya ninafanmaañao; lao ti jajungog y inagang ayo y cumuentuseyo.
10 I said, ‘What shall I do, Lord?’ The Lord said to me, ‘Arise, and go into Damascus. There you will be told about all things which are appointed for you to do.’
Ya ilegco: Jafa jufatinas Señot? Ya y Señot ilegña nu guajo: Cajulo ya janao falag Damasco; ya ayonae umasangane todo güinaja ni y matancho para chechomo.
11 When I couldn’t see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of those who were with me, I came into Damascus.
Ya anae ti siñayo manlie pot y minalag y candet, mapipetyo ni ayo sija y guinin mangachochongjo, ya maconeyo guato Damasco.
12 “One Hananiah, a devout man according to the Torah, well reported of by all the Jews who lived in Damascus,
Ya si Ananias, un taotao na deboto jaftaemanoja y lay, ya guaja mauleg na testimonio para todo y Judios sija ni y mañasaga güije,
13 came to me, and standing by me said to me, ‘Brother Saul, receive your sight!’ In that very hour I looked up at him.
Mato guiya guajo, ya tumojgue, ya ilegña nu guajo: Chelujo Saulo, resibe y liniemo. Ya ayoja na ora nae juatan güe.
14 He said, ‘The God of our fathers has appointed you to know his will, and to see the Righteous One, and to hear a voice from his mouth.
Ya ilegña: Y Yuus mañaenata umayegjao, na para untungo y minalagoña, ya unlie Ayo Tunas, yan unjungog y inagang y pachotña.
15 For you will be a witness for him to all men of what you have seen and heard.
Sa jago utestiguña todo gui taotao, jafa y liniemo yan y jiningogmo.
16 Now why do you wait? Arise, be immersed, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.’
Ya pago jafa na sumasagajaoja? Cajulo ya unmatagpange, ya ufinagase y isaomo, agang y naanña.
17 “When I had returned to Jerusalem and while I prayed in the temple, I fell into a trance
Ya susede anae tumaloyo guato Jerusalem, ya mientras mananaetaeyo gui templo, malingo y jinasoco,
18 and saw him saying to me, ‘Hurry and get out of Jerusalem quickly, because they will not receive testimony concerning me from you.’
Ya julie güe, ya ilegña nu guajo: Laguse, ya unjanao juyong Jerusalem; sa ti manmalago maresibe y testemoniumo pot guajo.
19 I said, ‘Lord, they themselves know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue those who believed in you.
Ya ilegco: Señot, jatungoja sija na manpresoyo yan mañaulag gui cada sinagoga ni ayo sija y jumonggue jao;
20 When the blood of Stephen, your witness, was shed, I also was standing by, consenting to his death, and guarding the cloaks of those who killed him.’
Ya anae machuda y jâgâ Esteban ni y testigomo, estabajayo na tumotojgue gui oriya, ya jucousienteja y mapunoña, ya juadaje y magagon ayo sija y pumuno güe.
21 “He said to me, ‘Depart, for I will send you out far from here to the Gentiles.’”
Ya ilegña nu guajo: Janao; sa guajo tumagojao chago desde este para y Gentiles.
22 They listened to him until he said that; then they lifted up their voice and said, “Rid the earth of this fellow, for he isn’t fit to live!”
Ya majungog güe asta este na sinangan, ya entonses jajatsa y inagangñija, ya ilegñija: Najanao ayo na taotao gui jilo tano, sa ti combiene na ulâlâ.
23 As they cried out, threw off their cloaks, and threw dust into the air,
Ya anae managang, yan jayute y magagonñija, ya manmanyute oda gui aire,
24 the commanding officer commanded him to be brought into the barracks, ordering him to be examined by scourging, that he might know for what crime they shouted against him like that.
Y magas inetnon jatago na umacone güe guato gui jalom castiyo, ya manago na umasaulag para umaegsamina, para utungo pot jafa causa na manaagang contra güiya.
25 When they had tied him up with straps, Paul asked the centurion who stood by, “Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and not found guilty?”
Ya anae magode güe ni y coreas, ilegña si Pablo ni y senturion ni y tumotojgue gui oriya: Tunas para jago na unsaulag un taotao na Romano sin umacondena?
26 When the centurion heard it, he went to the commanding officer and told him, “Watch what you are about to do, for this man is a Roman!”
Ya anae jajungog ayo y senturion, mapos ya jasangane y magas inetnon ilegña: Adaje jafa y unquequechogüe, sa este na taotao Romano.
27 The commanding officer came and asked him, “Tell me, are you a Roman?” He said, “Yes.”
Ayonae y magas inetnon mato ya ilegña: Sanganeyo, jago Romano? Ya güiya ilegña: Junggan.
28 The commanding officer answered, “I bought my citizenship for a great price.” Paul said, “But I was born a Roman.”
Ya y magas inetnon manope ilegña: Pot y minegae salape na juchule este na linebre. Ya si Pablo ilegña: Lao guajo Romanoyo na finañago.
29 Immediately those who were about to examine him departed from him, and the commanding officer also was afraid when he realised that he was a Roman, because he had bound him.
Ayonae manjanao guiya güiya ayo sija y para umegsamina güe: ya y magas inetnon ninamaañao locue, despues di jatungo na Romano, sa güiya munamagode.
30 But on the next day, desiring to know the truth about why he was accused by the Judeans, he freed him from the bonds and commanded the chief priests and all the council to come together, and brought Paul down and set him before them.
Ya y inagpaña, malago na utungo magajet cao jafa na mafaaela güe ni y Judios, ya masotta gui mapresuña, ya manago na ufanmato y magas mamale, yan y mangachongña, ya macone papa si Pablo ya mapolo gui menañija.
