< Acts 22 >

1 'Men, brethren, and fathers, hear my defence now unto you;' —
«Ti eeshuwotsnat tnihotso! eshe and itsh tt'intsiru aani tdek'etuwo tiko k'ewere!»
2 and they having heard that in the Hebrew dialect he was speaking to them, gave the more silence, and he saith, —
Ibrayist'i noon keewu keewon b́ keewufere boshishtsok'on iki s'k etbowtsi, P'awloswere b́keewiru keewo b́ need'irawo hank'o bí eti.
3 'I, indeed, am a man, a Jew, having been born in Tarsus of Cilicia, and brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, having been taught according to the exactitude of a law of the fathers, being zealous of God, as all ye are to-day.
«Taa Kilk'iyitse daatseyiru T'erses kitotse shuwets ayhudiwi taane, tieenmó Iyerusalem Kitmanitsne. Taan danifonuwere Gemalyailiye b́teshi, nih nihwots nemono shengshdek'at danre, hambets it k'aliruwank'o Ik'osh ookorona tfinefoni.
4 'And this way I persecuted unto death, binding and delivering up to prisons both men and women,
Krstni imneti shuuts sha'iryiru jamwotsi k'irosh borfetso t gishfoni, nungushuwotsnat máátsuwotsn tifde'er tipi moots bokindituwok'o twoshfoni.
5 as also the chief priest doth testify to me, and all the eldership; from whom also having received letters unto the brethren, to Damascus, I was going on, to bring also those there bound to Jerusalem that they might be punished,
Manuwere ar b́wottsok'o kahni naashonat eenashuwots taash gawitune. Eshe Demask'on fa'a ashaanotsi tifde'er Iyerusalem maants dewar boon Seziyosh taan falituwo Demask'on fa'a jirwotsoke guut'ets worek'ato tdek'iye boowokne.
6 and it came to pass, in my going on and coming nigh to Damascus, about noon, suddenly out of the heaven there shone a great light round about me,
«Taa Demask'o maants amfetsat kituk tt'infere aawu taalon t gawuraniyere een shááno darotse t gúratse b́goli.
7 I fell also to the ground, and I heard a voice saying to me, Saul, Saul, why me dost thou persecute?
Manoor dattsats dihi twutsi, ‹Sawulo! Sawulo! eegishe taan ngishiri?› etiru k'aaro tshshi.
8 'And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? and he said unto me, I am Jesus the Nazarene whom thou dost persecute —
Taawere ‹Doonzono! kone nee?› t eti, bíwere ‹Taahe nee ngishiruwo Nazrettso Iyesus taane› bí eti.
9 and they who are with me the light did see, and became afraid, and the voice they heard not of him who is speaking to me —
Taanton beyiru ashuwotswere shaanmani bobek'i bako taan b́keewiyor b́k'aaro shiyatsne.
10 and I said, What shall I do, Lord? and the Lord said unto me, Having risen, go on to Damascus, and there it shall be told thee concerning all things that have been appointed for thee to do.
Taawere ‹Doonzono! eeg k'aluta!› t eti. Doonzonuwere ‹Tuur Demask'o maants amee, k'alo neen b́geyit keewu jamo manoke neesh keewetuwe› bí eti.
11 'And when I did not see from the glory of that light, being led by the hand by those who are with me, I came to Damascus,
Shanman goltsatse tuutson bek'o tfalrawotse taanton teshts ashuwots tkisho detsdek't taan jishfere Demask'oyi bobetsi.
12 and a certain one, Ananias, a pious man according to the law, being testified to by all the Jews dwelling [there],
«Manoke Hananiy eteef ash iko fa'e b́teshi, Demask'oyitse beyiru Ayhudi jamwotsoke udetso, Muse nemo kottsonat shayiri ashe b́teshi.
13 having come unto me and stood by [me], said to me, Saul, brother, look up; and I the same hour did look up to him;
Bí waat t ganok need' dek't ‹Tieshu Sawulo! ni'aawo aani be'e!› taash bíeti, manorun tiaawo b́ bek'i, bínowere tbek'i.
14 and he said, The God of our fathers did choose thee beforehand to know His will, and to see the Righteous One, and to hear a voice out of his mouth,
Bíwere hank'o taash bíeti, ‹Nonihotsko Izar Izeweriye bíettso ndanetuwok'o kááwono be'er b́k'aronowere nshishetwok'o shin shino neen marat'ere,
15 because thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard;
Man b́k'aluwere bín bek'aat nshishtsotse ash jami shinatse bísh gawu nwotishe.
16 and now, why tarriest thou? having risen, baptize thyself, and wash away thy sins, calling upon the name of the Lord.
Eshe and eebi nkotiri? tuur b́shútso s'eer gúpeyowe, nmorratsnowere mashowe.›
17 'And it came to pass when I returned to Jerusalem, and while I was praying in the temple, I came into a trance,
«Maniyerehakon Iyerusalem maants aanat Ik'i mootse Ik'o tk'onfere tgitsotse t'iwintson bek'o tbek'i.
18 and I saw him saying to me, Haste and go forth in haste out of Jerusalem, because they will not receive thy testimony concerning me;
Doonzonwere taash be'eyat ‹Nee t jangosh n imet gawo bode'awotse nja'arawo káári Iyerusalemitse kee› bí eti
19 and I said, Lord, they — they know that I was imprisoning and was scourging in every synagogue those believing on thee;
Taawere hank'o tieti, ‹Doonzono! Ayhudi Ik' k'oni maa mootse neen amants jamwotsi t tiptsok'onat tjot'tsok'o bo botookon danfnee.
20 and when the blood of thy witness Stephen was being poured forth, I also was standing by and assenting to his death, and keeping the garments of those putting him to death;
N gawu teshtso Ist'ifanos úd'ewor taawere ttookon úd'iruwots ganok need'dek'at bonton keewumanats shiyeyatniye tteshi, botaahono tekotfere b́teshi, ›
21 and he said unto me, Go, because to nations far off I will send thee.'
Doonzonuwere ‹Wokooke fa'a Ik' ash Woteraw ashuwotsok neen twoshitwotse tuur amee!› bí eti.»
22 And they were hearing him unto this word, and they lifted up their voice, saying, 'Away from the earth with such an one; for it is not fit for him to live.'
Han b́ borfetsosh ash jamwots P'awlos keewiru keewo bok'ebfere boteshi, maniyre hakon bok'aaro eenshdek't, «Hank'o ashaan datsatse t'afuwe! hank'o ashaan kashon beyo bísh geyiratse!» ett bokuhi.
23 And they crying out and casting up their garments, and throwing dust into the air,
Bowere kuhefetst botaho shap'fetst shawono darots bobad'ri.
24 the chief captain commanded him to be brought into the castle, saying, 'By scourges let him be examined;' that he might know for what cause they were crying so against him.
Altsonuwere man b́bek'tsok'on P'awlosi kes' kes'fuwots galots bokindshituwok'o bíazazi, ash ashonwere eegosh hank'o bíats bokúhiruwok'o danosh jod'fetsr aatetuwok'o bíazazi.
25 And as he was stretching him with the thongs, Paul said unto the centurion who was standing by, 'A man, a Roman, uncondemned — is it lawful to you to scourge;'
Ernmó shaak'on tifde'er jot'osh bok'anefere P'awlos b́ganoke need'iru bali naashosh «Rom dats ash iko tafiyalo njot'etuwok'o neesh faletuwá?» bí eti.
26 and the centurion having heard, having gone near to the chief captain, told, saying, 'Take heed what thou art about to do, for this man is a Roman;'
Bali naashonuwere han b́shishtsok'on alirwok amt «Eeg k'alishe? Ashaan Rom datsi ashe!» bí eti.
27 and the chief captain having come near, said to him, 'Tell me, art thou a Roman?' and he said, 'Yes;'
Mansh alirwo P'awlos maants t'int «Ab taash keewwe, nee Rom datsatsi ashneneya?» bíeti, bíwere «Ee taane» bí eti.
28 and the chief captain answered, 'I, with a great sum, did obtain this citizenship;' but Paul said, 'But I have been even born [so].'
Azazefonuwere «Rom dats ashok'o taaweyosh ay gize tkishi» bíet, P'awloswere «Taayere Rom dats asho woto tdaats shuweyonee» bí eti.
29 Immediately, therefore, they departed from him who are about to examine him, and the chief captain also was afraid, having learned that he is a Roman, and because he had bound him,
Mansh bín aatosh k'andek't teshts ashuwots manoor bíyatse k'azbowoki, azazirwonuwere Rom dats asho habliyon b́tipo danb́k'rtsok'on shatb́wtsi.
30 and on the morrow, intending to know the certainty wherefore he is accused by the Jews, he did loose him from the bonds, and commanded the chief priests and all their sanhedrim to come, and having brought down Paul, he set [him] before them.
Yaatsok'on azaziruwo, ayhudiwots P'awlosi bos'amitso arikon eegosh b́wottsok'o dano b́geyi, mansh kahni naashuwotsnat mooshiruwotsitsi jamwots bokakuweetuwok'o bí azazi, P'awlosnowere bits dek'amt boshinaats bí t'intsi.
