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 we separated from them, and proceeded in a straight course to the island of Coos: and the next day, we reached Rhodes, and from there Patara.
2 Ke kut sun acn we, kut konauk lah oasr oak soko ac som nwe Phoenicia, na kut sroang wela.
And we found there a ship going to Phenicia; and we entered it, and proceeded on.
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 we came up with the island of Cyprus, and leaving it on the left we came to Syria; and from there we went to Tyre, for there the ship was to discharge 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, as we found disciples there, we tarried with them seven days: and they, by the Spirit, told Paul not to 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 after those days, we departed and went on our way; and they all clung to us, they and their wives and their children, until we were without the city; and they fell on their knees by the seaside, and prayed.
6 Kut wilkas nu sin sie sin sie, na kut sroak nu fin oak uh, ac elos folokla nu yen selos.
And we kissed one another: and we embarked in the ship, and they returned to their 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 sailed from Tyre, and arrived at the city Acco; and we saluted the brethren there, and stopped 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 the next day, we departed and came to Cesarea; and we went in and put up in the house of Philip the Evangelist, who was one of the seven.
9 Oasr mutan fusr lolap akosr natul, su wi pac fahkak kas lun God.
He had four virgin daughters, who were prophetesses.
10 Kut muta we ke kutu len, na mwet palu se pangpang Agabus el tuku Judea me.
And as we were there many days, a certain prophet came down from Judaea, whose name was Agabus.
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 he came in to us, and took the girdle of Paul's loins, and bound his own feet and hands, and said: Thus saith the Holy Spirit, So will the Jews in Jerusalem bind the man, who owns this girdle; and they will deliver him 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, we and the residents of the place begged of him, that he would not go 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 answered and said: What do ye, weeping and crushing my heart? For I am prepared, not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem, for the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah.
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 as he was not to be persuaded by us, we desisted; and we said: Let the pleasure of our Lord take place.
15 Tukun kut muta we ke kutu pacl, kut apweni ma lasr ac som nu Jerusalem.
And after those days, we prepared ourselves and 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 disciples of Caesarea went along with us, taking with them a brother from among the earlier disciples, whose name was Mnason, and who was from Cyprus; that he might entertain us at his house.
17 Ke kut sun acn Jerusalem, mwet lulalfongi in acn we arulana engan in paing kut.
And when we arrived at Jerusalem, the brethren received us joyfully.
18 Ke len tok ah Paul el wi kut som in osun yorol James; ac mwet kol nukewa lun church muta we.
And the next day, with Paul, we went unto James, when all the Elders were with him.
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 we gave them salutation: and Paul narrated to them, with particularity what God had wrought among the Gentiles by 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 when they heard it they glorified God. And they said to him: Our brother, Thou seest how many myriads there are in Judaea who have believed: and these are all zealous for 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 it hath been told them, of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews that are among the Gentiles to depart from Moses, by telling them not to circumcise their children, and not to observe the rites of the law.
22 Kalem lah elos lohng tari lah kom sun acn inge. Na mea ac orek uh?
Now, because they have heard that thou hast arrived here,
23 Pa inge ma kut lungse kom in oru uh. Oasr mwet akosr inmasrlosr su orala wulela ku nu sin God.
do thou what we tell thee. We have four men, who have vowed to purify themselves.
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.
Take them, and go and purify thyself with them, and pay the expenses along with them, as they shall shave their heads; that every one may know, that what is said against thee is false, and that thou fulfillest and observest 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.”
As to those of the Gentiles who have believed, we have written, that they should keep themselves from an idol's sacrifice, and from whoredom, and from what is strangled, and from blood.
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 took those men, on the following day, and was purified with them; and he entered and went into the temple, manifesting to them the completion of the days of the purification, up to the presentation of the offering by each 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 seventh day arrived, the Jews from Asia saw him in the temple: and they excited all the people against him, and laid hands on him,
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!” (
crying out and saying: Men, sons of Israel; help. This is the man, who teacheth in every place, against our people, and against the law, and against this place; and he hath also brought Gentiles into the temple, and hath 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 had previously seen with him in the city Trophimus the Ephesian; and they supposed, that he had entered the temple with Paul.
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 in commotion; and all the people assembled together, and laid hold of Paul, and dragged him out of the temple: and instantly the gates 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 while the multitude were seeking to kill him, it was reported to the Chiliarch of the cohort, that the whole city was in uproar.
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.
And immediately he took a centurion and many soldiers, and they ran upon them. And when they saw the Chiliarch and the soldiers, they desisted from 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?”
And the Chiliarch came up to him, and seized him, and ordered him to be bound with two chains: and he inquired respecting him, who he was, 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 persons from the throng vociferated against him this thing and that. And, because he could not, on account of their clamor, learn what the truth was, he commanded to conduct him to 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.
And when Paul came to the stairs, the soldiers bore him along, because of the violence of the people.
36 Elos nukewa tuku tokol wowoyak ac fahk, “Unilya!”
For a great many people followed after him, and cried out, saying: Away with him.
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 when he came near to entering the castle, Paul said to the Chiliarch: Wilt thou permit me to speak with thee? And he said to him: Dost thou know 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!”
Art not thou that Egyptian who, before these days, madest insurrection, and leadest out into the desert four thousand men, doers of evil?
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.”
Paul said to him: I am a Jew, a man of Tarsus, a noted city in Cilicia, in which I was born: I pray thee, suffer 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 when he permitted him, Paul stood upon the stairs, and waved to them his hand; and when they were quiet, he addressed them in Hebrew, and said to them:
