1 Esime Apolo ganɔ Korinto la, Paulo hã zɔ mɔ to Terki nutowo me va ɖo Efeso. Ekpɔe be xɔsetɔ aɖewo le afi ma, eye le woƒe nyamedzodzro me la,
Pea ʻi he kei nofo ʻa ʻApolosi ʻi Kolinitō, naʻe ʻalu ʻa Paula ki ʻEfesō, ʻi he hili ʻa ʻene fononga ʻi he ngaahi potu tukuʻuta; pea ne ʻilo ai ʻae ākonga niʻihi,
2 Paulo bia wo be, “Esi miexɔ se la, miexɔ Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la mahã?” Ke woɖo eŋu be, “Ao, míexɔ Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la o, eye le nyateƒe me la, míese eŋkɔ kpɔ gɔ̃ hã o.”
Pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Kuo mou maʻu ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni talu hoʻomou tui?” Pea naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku teʻeki ai te mau fanongo pe ʻoku ai ha Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.”
3 Paulo yi edzi bia wo be, “Ekema nu ka dzie miexɔ se hafi wode mawutsi ta na mi?” Woɖo eŋu be, “Wode mawutsi ta na mí ɖe Yohanes Mawutsidetanamela ƒe nufiafia nu.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Pea ne mou papitaiso ki he hā?” Pea nau pehē, “Ki he papitaiso ʻa Sione.”
4 Esi Paulo se nya sia la, egblɔ na wo be, “Yohanes Mawutsidetanamela ɖeko wòwɔe be yeafia ale si ame nadzudzɔ nu vɔ̃ wɔwɔ, atrɔ va Mawu gbɔ eye emegbe la, wòaxɔ Yesu Kristo, ame si ƒe nya Yohanes gblɔ be ele vava ge la dzi ase, ale be woade mawutsi ta nɛ ɖe eƒe ŋkɔ me.”
Pea toki pehē ʻe Paula, “Ko e moʻoni naʻe papitaiso ʻaki ʻe Sione ʻae papitaiso ki he fakatomala, ʻo ne pehē ki he kakai, ke nau tui kiate ia ʻe fakamuimui ʻiate ia, ʻa ia, ko Kalaisi Sisu.
5 Esi wose nya sia la, wo katã wolɔ̃, eye Paulo de mawutsi ta na wo ɖe Aƒetɔ Yesu ƒe ŋkɔ me.
Pea ʻi he nau fanongo eni naʻa nau papitaiso ʻi he huafa ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu.
6 Esi Paulo da asi ɖe wo dzi la, woxɔ Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la, eye woƒo nu kple gbegbɔgblɔ bubuwo hegblɔ nya ɖi hã.
Pea kuo hilifaki ʻae nima ʻo Paula kiate kinautolu, pea hoko kiate kinautolu ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni; pea naʻa nau leaʻaki ʻae lea kehekehe, mo nau kikite.
7 Ameawo ƒe xexlẽme nɔ ame wuieve.
Pea ko e tangata ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua nai ʻakinautolu.
8 Paulo yi ɖe ƒuƒoƒe la me nɔ mawunya gblɔm kple dzideƒo ɣleti etɔ̃ sɔŋ, eye wòle mawufiaɖuƒe la ŋutinya ƒom ɖe wo nu ale be woxɔe se.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ki he falelotu, ʻo ako mālohi ʻi he māhina ʻe tolu, ʻo ne fakamatala mo fakapapau atu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoe puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.
9 Ame aɖewo mexɔ eƒe nya o, ale wotsi tsitre ɖe eŋu vevie hegblɔ busunya geɖe ɖe Mɔ la ŋu le dutoƒo. Nu sia na be Paulo dzo le wo gbɔ. Ke ekplɔ nusrɔ̃lawo ɖe asi yi Tirano Takpexɔa me, afi si wòƒoa nu na wo le gbe sia gbe.
Kae ʻi he fakafefeka ʻae niʻihi, mo ʻikai tui, kae lea kovi ki he hala ko ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai, naʻa ne mahuʻi ʻiate kinautolu, mo ne vahevahe [mei ai ]ʻae kau ākonga, pea malanga ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻi he fale lautohi ʻoe tangata ko Tilano.
10 Ewɔ nu sia ƒe eve sɔŋ ale be Yudatɔwo kple Grikitɔ siwo katã le Asia la katã se Aƒetɔ la ƒe nya la.
Pea ne fai ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe ua; ko ia naʻe fanongo ai ki he folofola ʻae ʻEiki ko Sisu ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe nofo ʻi ʻEsia, ʻae kakai Siu mo e Kiliki.
11 Mawu wɔ nukunu tɔxɛwo to Paulo ƒe asi dzi
Pea naʻe fai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi mana fakaofo ʻi he nima ʻo Paula:
12 ale gbegbe be wòtsɔa takuviwo kple akɔtawuiwo kaa dɔnɔwo ŋu wohayana, eye gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo hã doa go le wo me.
He naʻe ʻave mei hono sino ʻae ngaahi holoholo mo e noʻo, ki he kakai mahaki, pea naʻe mahuʻi ʻae mahaki ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻalu ʻiate kinautolu ʻae kau laumālie kovi.
13 Yudatɔ aɖewo hã nɔ tsatsam tso du me yi du me henɔ gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo nyam le amewo me. Ame siawo va ɖo be yewoayɔ Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ƒe ŋkɔ anya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃e kpɔ be adze edzi na yewo mahã? Woɖoe be ne yewotu ame si me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ le la, yewoado ɣli ɖe eta be, “Meɖe gbe na wò le Yesu Kristo, ame si ƒe nya gblɔm Paulo le la ƒe ŋkɔ me be nàdo go!”
Pea ko e kau Siu niʻihi naʻe feʻaluʻaki fano, ko e kau fie mana, naʻa nau fai ke ui ʻaki ʻae huafa ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu kiate kinautolu naʻe ulusino ai ʻae ngaahi laumālie kovi, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku mau fekau mālohi kiate kimoutolu ia Sisu, ʻaia ʻoku malangaʻaki ʻe Paula.”
14 Ame siwo nɔ nu sia wɔm la woe nye Yudatɔwo ƒe nunɔlagã aɖe si woyɔna be Skeva la ƒe viŋutsuvi adreawo.
Pea naʻe fai pehē ʻae ngaahi foha ʻe toko fitu ʻo Siva, ko e Siu, pea ko e taulaʻeiki lahi.
15 Wova ke ɖe ame aɖe si me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ le la ŋu vavã, eye wote kpɔ be yewoanya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la le Yesu ƒe ŋkɔ me. Ke gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la bia wo be, “Yesu la medze sii eye Paulo la menyae nyuie, ke miawo ɖe, ame kawoe mienye?”
Pea naʻe lea ʻae laumālie kovi, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻa Sisu, pea ʻoku ou ʻilo mo Paula; ka ko hai ʻakimoutolu?”
16 Enumake ame si me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ le la dzo dze wo dometɔ eve dzi, heɖu wo dzi, ƒo wo, eye wòvuvu awu le wo ŋu ale be wosi do go le aƒea me amamae.
Pea naʻe ʻoho kiate kinautolu ʻae tangata naʻe ulusino ai ʻae laumālie kovi, pea naʻa ne ikuna ʻakinautolu, mo fai mālohi kiate kinautolu, pea naʻa nau feholaki mei he fale ko ia kuo nau telefua mo makafokafo.
17 Nya sia kaka ɖe Yudatɔwo kple Helatɔwo siaa dome le Efeso dua me. Ale vɔvɔ̃ tɔxɛ aɖe dze wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe dzi, eye wode bubu Aƒetɔ Yesu ƒe ŋkɔ ŋu.
Pea naʻe ʻilo eni ʻe he Siu mo e Kiliki kotoa pē naʻe nofo ʻi ʻEfesō; pea naʻe tō ʻae manavahē kiate kinautolu kotoa pē, pea naʻe ongoongolelei ai ʻae huafa ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu.
18 Ame geɖe siwo xɔe se la va eye woʋu woƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiwo wɔwɔ me.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae tokolahi naʻe tui, ke vete mo fakahā ʻenau ngaahi faianga.
19 Ame siwo nye afakalawo la tsɔ woƒe agbalẽwo kple nu kpotokpotoewo vɛ, eye wotɔ dzo wo le dutoƒo. Nu siwo wotɔ dzoe la ƒe home anɔ abe siɖi akpe blaatɔ̃ ene.
Pea ko e tokolahi, ʻiate kinautolu naʻe ngāue fakafiemana, naʻa nau ʻomi ʻo fakataha ʻenau ngaahi tohi, ʻo tutu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai: pea naʻa nau lau hono totongi [ʻoe ngaahi tohi], ko e paʻanga siliva ʻe nima mano.
20 Esia nye dzesi be Aƒetɔ la ƒe nya la xɔ aƒe kple ŋusẽ le nuto la me vavã.
He naʻe mātuʻaki tupulekina pea mālohi ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua.
21 Emegbe la, Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la dee Paulo me be wòayi Makedonia kple Akaya nuto me hafi atrɔ ayi Yerusalem. Eya ŋutɔ hã ɖoe be tso afi ma la, ele be yeayi Roma hã.
Pea kuo hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe maʻu ʻae loto ʻo Paula ke ʻalu ki Selūsalema, ʻoka hili ʻene ʻalu ʻi Masitōnia, mo ʻAkeia, pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻOka hili ʻeku ʻalu ki ai, ʻe totonu ke u vakai foki ki Loma.”
22 Eɖo eƒe kpeɖeŋutɔ eve siwo nye Timoteo kple Erasto la ɖa be woado ŋgɔ ayi Makedonia, Hela nuto me, ke eya ŋutɔ gatsi Asia vie.
Pea fekau ʻe ia ke ō ki Masitōnia ʻae toko ua ʻiate kinautolu naʻe tauhi kiate ia, ko Timote mo Eleasito; ka naʻe kei nofo siʻi ia ʻi ʻEsia.
23 Ke le ɣe ma ɣi la, masɔmasɔ gã aɖe va Efeso dua me le Kristotɔwo ta.
Pea naʻe tupu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia ʻae maveuveu lahi, ko e meʻa ʻi he lotu ko ia.
24 Ame si he masɔmasɔ sia vɛ lae nye Demetrio. Ame sia nye klosalotula, eye dɔsrɔ̃viwo nɔ esi fũu. Wonɔa Helatɔwo ƒe mawu, Artemis ƒe legbawo wɔm kple klosalo.
He ko e tangata ko Temetelio hono hingoa, ko e tufunga ngaohi siliva, naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae teunga siliva ki he fale lahi ʻo Taiena, pea naʻe lahi ʻae koloa naʻe maʻu ai ʻe he kau tufunga;
25 Gbe ɖeka la, Demetrio ƒo eƒe dɔwɔlawo kple ame siwo katã wɔa klosalotutu dɔ le dua me la nu ƒu, eye wòƒo nu na wo ale, “Mía tɔwo, miawo ŋutɔwo mienya be klosalotutu siae míewɔna ɖuna.
Pea naʻa ne fakakātoa ʻakinautolu, mo e kakai naʻa nau kaunga faiva fakataha mo ne pehē, “ʻAe kau matāpule, ʻoku mou ʻilo ko e meʻa ʻi he faiva ni ʻoku tau maʻu ai ʻetau koloa.
26 Ke ele nyanya me na mi katã be Paulo va le tagbɔ gblẽm na amewo be mawu siwo wotsɔ asi wɔe la menye mawu gbagbe o, eye esia na be míaƒe dɔ megale edzi yim tututu le Efeso afi sia kple Asia nuto la katã me o.
Pea ko eni, ʻoku mou mamata mo fanongo kuo fakalotoʻi mo fakatafoki ʻe Paula ni ʻae kakai tokolahi, ʻikai ʻi ʻEfesō pē, kae meimei ʻi ʻEsia kotoa pē, ʻi heʻene pehē, ʻOku ʻikai ko e ngaahi ʻotua ʻaia ʻoku ngaohi ʻe he nima:

Pea ʻe ʻikai ngata ʻi he manukiʻi ʻo ʻetau faiva ni; ka ʻe taukaea foki mo e fale lahi ʻoe ʻotua fefine ongoongo ko Taiena, pea ʻe maumau mo hono nāunau, ʻaia ʻoku hū ki ai ʻa ʻEsia mo māmani kotoa pē.”
28 Nya sia de adã ta me na ameha la ale wode asi ɣlidodo me sesĩe be, “Artemis, Efesotɔwo ƒe mawu la lolo!”
Pea ʻi heʻenau fanongo, naʻa nau fonu ʻi he ʻita, mo nau kalanga, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku lahi ʻa Taiena ʻoe kakai ʻEfesō.”
29 Ɣlidodo sia na be amewo ƒo zi be yewoakpɔ nu si le edzi yim la ɖa, eye le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe la, du blibo la katã tɔ zi. Ame sia ame ƒu du yi ƒuƒoƒe la, eye wolé Gayo kple Aristako, ame siwo nye Paulo ƒe mɔzɔhatiwo tso Makedonia.
Pea naʻe maveuveu ʻae kolo kotoa pē: pea kuo nau puke ʻa Keio mo ʻAlisitako, ko e ongo tangata Masitōnia, ko e kau fononga ʻo Paula, naʻa nau feʻohofi fakataha ki he fale faiva.
30 Paulo di vevie be yeadze wo yome ayi ƒuƒoƒe la, gake nusrɔ̃la bubuawo meɖe mɔ nɛ o.
Pea naʻe fie ʻalu atu ʻa Paula ki loto ki he kakai, ka naʻe taʻofi ia ʻe he kau ākonga.
31 Romasrafo siwo le nutoa me la dometɔ siwo nye Paulo xɔlɔ̃wo hã ɖo ame ɖe egbɔ gblɔ nɛ be megado ta ɖe afi ma o.
Pea ko e niʻihi ʻi he kau matāpule ʻo ʻEsia, ko hono kāinga, naʻa nau fekau atu, ʻo kole kiate ia ke ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa ʻalu ia ki he fale faiva.
32 Takpekpe la ŋutɔ tɔ zi kɔtɔɔ. Ame sia ame nɔ ɣli dom, nɔ nya sia nya ƒomevi si dze eŋu la gblɔm. Vavã, wo dometɔ geɖe hã menya nu si tututu ta wova ƒo ƒu ɖe afi ma ɖo gɔ̃ hã o.
Pea kalanga ʻaki ʻe he niʻihi ha meʻa ʻe taha, pea ko e niʻihi ha meʻa kehe: he naʻe puputuʻu ʻae kakai, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he tokolahi pe ko e hā kuo nau fakataha ai.
33 Yudatɔ aɖewo kpɔ Aleksandro le ameawo dome, eye enumake wohee do goe wòva tsi tsitre ɖe ameha la ŋkume. Ekɔ asi dzi, eye ɖoɖoe zi, ale wòde asi nuƒoƒo me na wo.
Pea naʻa nau taki mai ʻa ʻAlekisānita, mei he kakai, pea fokotuʻu ia ʻe he kakai Siu. Pea taʻalo ʻaki ʻe ʻAlekisānita hono nima, ʻo fie fakamatala ki he kakai.
34 Ke esi ameha la kpɔe dze sii be Yudatɔ wònye la, wogade asi ɣlidodo me be, “Artemis, Efesotɔwo ƒe mawu la lolo! Artemis, Efesotɔwo ƒe Mawu la lolo!”
Ka ʻi heʻenau ʻilo ko e Siu ia, naʻa nau kalanga fakataha kotoa pē ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ʻe ua, “ʻOku lahi ʻa Taiena ʻoe kakai ʻEfesō.”
