When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a Jewish false prophet whose name was Bar-Jesus,

who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of understanding. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul, and sought to hear the word of God.
8 Tusruktu mwet susfa sac (su pangpang Elymas in kas Greek) el lainultal, ac el srike elan kifasulla governor liki moul in lulalfongi uh.
But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn aside the proconsul from the faith.
9 Na Saul (su pangpang pac Paul) el sessesla ke Ngun Mutal, ac el ngetang suiya mwet susfa sac
But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him,

and said, "Full of all deceit and all fraud, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
11 Poun Leum God ac fah putati nu fom ingena. Kom ac fah kunla, ac tia ku in liye kalem lun len uh nwe ke sie pacl God El ac fah pakiya.” In pacl sacna Elymas el pulauk ohk se fahsryak kosrala mutal, ac el forfor suk sie mwet ah in pwanul.
Now, look, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you will be blind, unable to see the sun for a time." Immediately a mist and darkness fell on him. He went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.
12 Ke governor el liye ma sikyak inge, na el lulalfongila, ac el arulana lut ke mwe luti ke Leum Jesus.
Then the proconsul, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.

Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos, and came to Perga in Pamphylia, and John departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.

The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they stayed as foreigners in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm, he led them out of it.
18 ac ke yac angngaul, El mutangalos in acn mwesis.
For a period of about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.
19 El kunausla mutunfacl itkosr in facl Canaan, ac sang acn inge tuh in ma lac lun mwet lal. Ma inge nukewa orekla ke inmasrlon yac angfoko lumngaul.
When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance.

Afterward they asked for a king, and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.
22 Tukun God El sisella Saul, God El akleumyalak David elan tokosra lalos. Pa inge ma God El fahk kacl: ‘Nga konauk lah David, wen natul Jesse, el kain mwet se ma nga insewowo se, su ac oru ma nukewa ma nga lungse elan oru uh.’
When he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, to whom he also testified, 'I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who will do all my will.'
23 Jesus, sin fwilin tulik natul David, pa God El tuh orala in Mwet Lango nu sin mwet Israel uh, oana ke El tuh wulela kac ah.
From this man's offspring, according to his promise, God has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus,

As John was fulfilling his course, he said, 'What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. But look, one comes after me the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.'

For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they did not know him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled them by condemning him.
28 Ac elos finne tia konauk kutena sripa fal in anwuki el kac, a elos kwafe sel Pilate elan unilya.
Though they found no cause for death, they still asked Pilate to have him killed.
29 Ac tukun elos orala ma nukewa su Ma Simusla uh fahk kacl, elos eisya manol liki sakseng, ac fililya in kulyuk uh.
When they had fulfilled all things that were written about him, they took him down from the tree, and placed him in a tomb.
30 Tusruktu God El akmoulyalak liki misa,
But God raised him from the dead,
31 ac ke len pus, el sikyang nu sin mwet su tuh welul in fufahsryesr lal Galilee me nu Jerusalem. Inge elos mwet loh kacl nu sin mwet Israel.
and he was seen for many days by those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.
32 Ac kut tuku in use Pweng Wo ma God El tuh wulela nu sin mwet matu lasr meet ah,
We bring you good news of the promise made to the fathers,
33 ac inge El akpwayei nu sesr su ma natulos, ke El akmoulyalak Jesus. Oana ma simla in Psalm luo uh, su fahk, ‘Kom wen nutik; Misenge nga papala tomom.’
that God has fulfilled for us, their children, in that he raised up Jesus. As it is also written in the second psalm, 'You are my Son. Today I have become your Father.'
34 Ac pa inge ma God El fahk ke El ac akmoulyalak liki misa uh, tuh elan tia kulawi in kulyuk uh: ‘Nga fah sot nu sum mwe insewowo mutal ac pwaye Su nga tuh wulela kac nu sel David.’
"Concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: 'I will give to you the faithful sacred things of David.'
35 Aok, El oayapa fahk ke sie pac verse ma fahk mu, ‘Kom fah tia lela mwet kulansap oaru lom in kulawi in kulyuk uh.’
Therefore he says also in another psalm, 'You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.'
36 Tuh ke pacl David el moul el akfalye ma lungse lun God, na el misa, ac pukpuki el yurin mwet matu lal, ac manol kulawi in kulyuk uh.
For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was placed with his fathers, and saw decay.
37 Tusruktu el su God El akmoulyauk liki misa, el tia wi kulawi.
But he whom God raised up saw no decay.
38 Ke ma inge, mwet Israel wiuk, lela in arulana kalem suwos lah nunak munas ke ma koluk su kut fahkak nu suwos uh, ma tuku ke mwet se inge, Jesus.
Be it known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you forgiveness of sins,
39 Kowos in etu pac lah mwet nukewa su lulalfongi in el, elos sukosokla liki ma koluk nukewa su Ma Sap lal Moses uh tia ku in aksukosokyekowosla liki.
and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the Law of Moses.
40 Ke ma inge kowos liyekowosyang tuh kas inge ma fwackyak sin mwet palu fah tia tuku nu fowos:
So beware, lest what is said in the Prophets should come about:
41 ‘Ngetma, kowos su aksruksrukye God! Kowos in lut ac misa! Tuh ma nga oru misenge ye motowos, Sie ma su kowos ac tia ku in lulalfongi Mwet finne aketeya nu suwos!’”
'Look, you scoffers, and be amazed, and perish; for I am working a work in your days, a work which you will not believe, if one tells it to you.'"
42 Ke Paul ac Barnabas illa liki iwen lolngok uh, mwet uh kwafe eltal in sifilpa foloko ke Sabbath se tok uh, ac sifilpa akyokye srumunyen ma inge.
So when they went out they urged them to speak about these things on the next Sabbath.
43 Tukun mwet uh fahsrelik liki toeni sac, mwet puspis sin mwet Jew ac oayapa mwet saya ma forla ac weang alu lun mwet Jew, elos ukwalla Paul ac Barnabas. Mwet sap uh kaskas nu selos ac akkeyalos elos in oaru na in fungyang nu ke kulang lun God.
Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.
44 Ke Sabbath se tok ah, apkuran mwet nukewa in siti uh tuku in lohng kas lun Leum.
The next Sabbath almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of the Lord.
45 Ke mwet Jew elos liye pusiyen mwet uh elos sokyak na pwaye. Elos sramsram lainul Paul ac sufanul.
But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and reviled him.
46 Ne ouinge a fahkak lal Paul ac Barnabas arulana pulaik liki meet ah, ac eltal fahk: “Kowos pa kut enenu na in fahkak kas lun God nu se oemeet. Tuh ke kowos pilesru ac sifacna nunku mu kowos sufal in eis moul ma pahtpat, kut ac fahsr liki kowos ac som nu yurin mwet pegan uh. (aiōnios g166)
Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, and said, "It was necessary that God's word should be spoken to you first. Since indeed you thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, look, we turn to the non-Jewish people. (aiōnios g166)
47 Tuh pa inge ma Leum God El sapkin nu sesr: ‘Nga oakikomi tuh kom in sie kalem se nu sin mwet pegan, Tuh faclu nufon fah ku in moliyukla.’”
For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, 'I have set you as a light to the nations, that you may bring salvation to the farthest part of the earth.'"
48 Ke mwet pegan elos lohng, elos arulana engan ac kaksakin pweng wo lun God; ac elos su solla tari nu ke moul ma pahtpat elos mwet lulalfongila. (aiōnios g166)
As the non-Jewish people heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord. As many as were appointed to everlasting life believed. (aiōnios g166)
49 Kas lun Leum uh fahsrelik in acn nukewa in polo acn sac.
The Lord's word was spread abroad throughout all the region.
50 Tusruktu mwet Jew elos purakak nunak lun mwet kol in siti sac, oayapa mutan kacto sin mwet pegan su wi pac alu nu sin God uh. Elos mutawauk in kalyael Paul ac Barnabas, ac luselosla liki acn selos uh.
But the Jews stirred up the devout women of prominence and the chief men of the city, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and threw them out of their borders.
51 Na mwet sap uh osrokla kutkut ke nialos in akkalemye lah elos lain mwet in acn sac, na elos som nu Iconium.
But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.
52 Mwet lulalfongi in Antioch elos arulana sessesla ke engan ac ke Ngun Mutal.
The disciples were filled with joy with the Holy Spirit.
