Orekma 21
1 Kut wilkas nu selos ac oayak. Ke kut kal suwosla liki acn we kut sun acn Cos, ac len tok ah kut oai Rhodes, ac sifil kalla nu Patara.
And when it came to pass, that we having been farewelled by them, embarked, sailing straight forward, we arrived at Cos, and on the following day to Rhodes, and thence to Patara.
2 Ke kut sun acn we, kut konauk lah oasr oak soko ac som nwe Phoenicia, na kut sroang wela.
And finding a ship sailing into Phoenicia, having embarked, we moved out.
3 Kut kal nwe ke kut liyauk acn Cyprus, na kut ut layen nu eir in Cyprus ac kalla nu Syria. Kut srola Tyre, yen ma koanon oak uh ah titila we.
And coming in sight of Cyprus, and leaving it on the left, we sailed to Syria, and disembarked at Tyre: for there the ship was delivering her cargo.
4 Kut konauk kutu mwet lulalfongi in acn we, ac muta yorolos ke wik se. Ke ku lun Ngun Mutal elos fahkang nu sel Paul elan tia som nu Jerusalem.
And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who continued to say to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go to Jerusalem.
5 Na ke safla wik sac, kut mukuiyak in som. Elos nukewa, wi mutan kialos ac tulik natulos, wi kut som liki siti uh nu wekof ah, ac kut nukewa sikukmutunteiyak ac pre.
And when it came to pass that we refitted during those days, having come out, we departed, all sending us forth, along with the women and children, out of the city: and putting down the knees on the shore, having prayed,
6 Kut wilkas nu sin sie sin sie, na kut sroak nu fin oak uh, ac elos folokla nu yen selos.
we farewelled one another, and went up into the ship; and they returned to their own homes.
7 Ke kut kalot liki acn Tyre kut sun acn Ptolemais, ac kut paing mwet lulalfongi in acn we, ac muta yorolos len se.
And we continuing our voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais, and having saluted the brethren, we remained with them one day.
8 In len tok ah kut som ac sun acn Caesarea, ac kut tuh muta in lohm sel Philip, mwet fahkak ke Pweng Wo, su sie sin mwet itkosr ma tuh solla mwet kasru in Jerusalem.
And on the following day, having come out, we came into Caesarea: and having entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, being one of the seven, we abode with him.
9 Oasr mutan fusr lolap akosr natul, su wi pac fahkak kas lun God.
And there were to him four virgin daughters, prophesying.
10 Kut muta we ke kutu len, na mwet palu se pangpang Agabus el tuku Judea me.
And we remaining many days, a certain prophet, by name Agabus, came down from Judea;
11 El tuku nu yorosr, eisla ma losyen infulwal Paul ac sifacna sang kapriya paol ac nial kac. Na el fahk, “Pa inge ma Ngun Mutal fahk: Mwet Jew in acn Jerusalem elos ac fah kapriya mwet se la mwe lohl se inge uh in lumah se inge, na elos ac fah eisalang nu inpoun mwet pegan.”
and having come to us, and taking the girdle of Paul, binding his own feet and hands, said, These things says the Holy Ghost, The man whose girdle this is, will the Jews in Jerusalem bind and deliver into the hands of the Gentiles.
12 Ke kut lohng ma inge, kut ac mwet wiasr in acn sac, tukeni kwafe na sel Paul elan tia som nu Jerusalem.
And when we heard these words, both we, and the citizens, exhorted him not to go up to Jerusalem.
13 A el topuk ac fahk, “Mea kowos oru an ku kowos tung ouingan, ac aktoasrye insiuk? Nga akola tari in kapiri in acn Jerusalem, ac nga akola pac in misa we ke sripen Leum Jesus.”
Then Paul responded and said, What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? for I am ready not only to be bound, but to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
14 Kut tia ku in furokla nunak lal ah, pwanang kut tari fuhleak ac fahk, “Kut pre tuh ma lungse lun Leum in orek.”
And he not being persuaded, we acquiesced, saying, Let the will of the Lord be done.
15 Tukun kut muta we ke kutu pacl, kut apweni ma lasr ac som nu Jerusalem.
And after those days, taking our luggage, we went up to Jerusalem:
16 Kutu sin mwet lulalfongi ma tuku Caesarea me elos wi kut pac som, ac pwenkutla nu ke lohm sin mwet se ma kut ac muta yoro ah — inel pa Mnason, sie mwet Cyprus, su nuna sie mwet lulalfongi emeet me.
and some of the disciples from Caesarea went along with us, bringing Mnason a certain Cyprian, an old disciple, with whom we should lodge.
17 Ke kut sun acn Jerusalem, mwet lulalfongi in acn we arulana engan in paing kut.
And we being in Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.
18 Ke len tok ah Paul el wi kut som in osun yorol James; ac mwet kol nukewa lun church muta we.
And on the following day, Paul goes with us to James; and all the elders assembled.
19 Paul el paingulos, na el fahkak ke ma nukewa ma God El kasrel in oru ke pacl el orekma inmasrlon mwet pegan uh.
And having saluted them, he related each one of those things which God did among the Gentiles through his ministry.
20 Tukun elos lohng ma el fahk, elos nukewa kaksakin God. Na elos fahk, “Paul, mwet lili lasr, kom ku in liye lah tausin puspis sin mwet Jew elos wela lulalfongi, ac elos arulana moniyuk in akos Ma Sap uh.
And they hearing, continued to glorify God, and said to him, You see, brother, how many myriads there are of those who believe; and they are all zealots of the law:
21 Fwackyang tari nu selos lah kom luti mwet Jew nukewa su muta in facl sin mwet pegan uh elos in sisla Ma Sap lal Moses, ac kom fahk tuh elos in tia kosrala tulik natulos, ku fahsr tukun ouiya lun mwet Jew uh.
and they have been informed concerning thee, that thou art teaching all the Jews who are among the Gentiles apostasy from Moses, saying that they are not to circumcise their children, nor to walk according to the customs.
22 Kalem lah elos lohng tari lah kom sun acn inge. Na mea ac orek uh?
Then what is it? it is altogether necessary that the multitude come together: for they will hear that you have come.
23 Pa inge ma kut lungse kom in oru uh. Oasr mwet akosr inmasrlosr su orala wulela ku nu sin God.
Therefore do this which we tell thee. There are four men among us having a vow upon them;
24 Welulos som ac tukeni wi alu in aknasnas, ac sang molin kalkul lalos, na elos fah ku in mangsrasrala. Kom fin oru ouinge, na mwet nukewa ac fah etu lah tiana pwaye kas elos lohng mu kom fahk uh, ac lah kom moul fal nu ke Ma Sap lal Moses uh.
taking them, be purified along with them, and be at charges for them, that they may shave their head: and all shall know that there is nothing of those things they have been informed concerning thee; but that thyself art walking, keeping the law.
25 A funu mwet pegan ma wela lulalfongi uh, kut supwala leta se nu selos ac fahk lah kut wotela mu elos in tia kang kutena mwe mongo ma kisala nu sin ma sruloala, ku kutena srah, ku kosro ma loksakiyuki, ac elos in liyalosyang liki ouiya fohkfok lun mwet kosro.”
But concerning the Gentiles who have believed, we have sent to them, adjudicating that they keep themselves from idolatry, and blood, and strangulation, and fornication.
26 Na Paul el eis mwet akosr inge, ac ke len tok ah el orala alu in aknasnas yorolos. Na el som nu in Tempul ac akkalemye len lula in safla pacl in aknasnas uh, na fah pacl in orek kisa ke kais sie selos.
Then Paul, having taken the men, the next day being purified along with them, enters into the temple, proclaiming the fulfillment of the days of purification, until an offering may be made for each one of them.
27 Tusruktu ke fahsr in safla len in aknasnas itkosr ah, na kutu mwet Jew su tuku Asia me elos liyalak Paul in Tempul uh. Elos purakak insien mwet puspis, ac sruokilya Paul.
And when the seven days were about to have an end, the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the temple, stirred up the whole multitude, and laid hands on him, crying out,
28 Na elos wowoyak ac fahk, “Mwet Israel, kasrekut! Pa inge mwet se forfor yen nukewa ac luti nu sin mwet nukewa in lain mwet Israel, ac lain Ma Sap lal Moses, ac lain Tempul se inge. Ac inge el use pac mwet pegan nu in Tempul uh ac akfohkfokyela acn mutal se inge!” (
Israelitish men, help: this is the man, teaching all everywhere against the people, and the law, and this place, and he has even yet led Greeks into the temple, and polluted this holy place.
29 Elos fahk ma inge mweyen elos tuh liyalak Trophimus, sie mwet Ephesus ke el welul Paul in siti uh, ac elos nunku mu Paul el usalak nu in Tempul.)
For they saw Trophimus the Ephesian in the city with him, whom they supposed that Paul led into the temple.
30 Fohs lulap sikyak in siti sac nufon, ac mwet uh kasreni nu sie, sruokilya Paul ac amakunulla liki Tempul uh. Na elos sulaklak na kaliya srungul ke Tempul.
And the whole city was excited, and there was a commotion of the people: and taking Paul, they dragged him out of the temple; and immediately the doors were closed.
31 Ke un mwet uh srike in unilya Paul, supweyukla kas nu sin leum lun mwet mweun Rome uh, fahk mu acn Jerusalem nufon arulana fohsak.
And seeking to kill him, the report went up to the chiliarch of the band, that all Jerusalem is in commotion;
32 In pacl sacna leum sac el eis kutu mwet mweun wi mwet kol lalos, ac sulaklak na oatui nu yen lokoalok uh orek we. Ke mwet uh liyal wi mwet mweun uh, elos tila onel Paul.
who immediately, taking soldiers and centurions, ran to them: and they, seeing the chiliarch and the soldiers, ceased beating Paul.
33 Leum sac som nu yorol Paul, sruokilya ac sap kapiri el ke sein lukwa. Na el siyuk, “Su mwet se inge, ac mea el orala uh?”
Then the chiliarch, having come nigh, took Paul, and commanded that he should be bound with two chains; and was making inquiry who he might be, and what he had done.
34 Kutu mwet uh wowoyak fahk sie ma, ac kutu fahk kutepacna ma. Yokla fohs uh, oru leum sac tia ku in konauk na pwaye lah mea sikyak uh. Na el sap mwet lal uh in usalak Paul nu ke nien muta ku lun mwet mweun.
And they continued to cry aloud in the multitude, some one thing, and some another: and he, being unable to know the certainty on account of the uproar, commanded that he should be led into the castle.
35 Elos usal nwe sun nien fan nu inkul selos uh, na mwet mweun uh sraklalak usal, mweyen arulana upa kasrkusrak lun mwet uh.
Then when he was on the threshold, it happened that he was carried by the soldiers, on account of the violence of the mob;
36 Elos nukewa tuku tokol wowoyak ac fahk, “Unilya!”
for the multitude of the people were following, crying out, Take him away.
37 Ke mwet mweun uh akola in usalak Paul nu inkul uh, na Paul el kasla nu sin leum sac ac fahk, “Nga ku in fahk ma se nu sum?” Leum sac siyuk, “Kom etu kas Greek?
And Paul, being about to be led into the castle, says to the chiliarch, Is it lawful for me to say something to thee? And he said, Do you speak Greek?
38 Fin angan, kalem lah tia kom pa mwet Egypt se ma tuh oru fohs se nwe pwanla tausin akos mwet akmas nu yen mwesis ah!”
Are you not that Egyptian who before these days rising up and leading away into the desert four hundred men of daggers?
39 Na Paul el fahk, “Nga mwet Jew se. Nga isusla Tarsus, sie siti pwengpeng in acn Cilicia. Nunak munas, lela ngan kaskas nu sin mwet uh.”
But Paul said, I am indeed a Jewish man, a Tarsean, a citizen of Cilicia, no mean city: but, I pray you, permit me to speak to the people.
40 Leum sac fuhlela elan kaskas, na Paul el tu fin nien fan uh, ac kolak paol mwet uh in misla. Ke elos misla, Paul el kaskas nu selos in kas Aramaic.
And he permitting, Paul, standing on the threshold, beckoned with his hand to the people: and there being great silence, he spoke to them in the Hebrew tongue, saying:
