Asan'ny Apostoly 15
1 Ary ny olona sasany izay nidina avy tany Jodia nampianatra ny rahalahy hoe: Raha tsy forana araka ny fanaon’ i Mosesy ianareo, dia tsy azo vonjena.
And certain ones having come down from Judea were teaching the brethren that, Unless you may be circumcised, according to the custom of Moses, you are not able to be saved.
2 Ary rehefa nifanditra sy niady hevitra be ihany tamin’ ireo Paoly sy Barnabasy, dia nifanarahana ny hiakaran’ izy roa lahy sy ny sasany koa hankany Jerosalema ho any amin’ ny Apostoly sy ny loholona hanadina izany teny niadian-kevitra izany.
And there being no small contention and disputation to Paul and Barnabas against them, they delegated Paul and Barnabas, and certain others of them, to go up to the apostles and elders in Jerusalem concerning this question.
3 Ary rehefa nanatitra azy ny fiangonana, dia nandeha namaky an’ i Foinika sy Samaria izy ka nilaza ny niovan’ ny jentilisa; dia nampifaly ny rahalahy rehetra indrindra izy.
Then indeed they having been sent away by the church, traveled through both Phoenicia and Samaria, relating the conversion of the Gentiles: and they continued to make great joy to all the brethren.
4 Ary rehefa tonga tany Jerosalema izy, dia noraisin’ ny fiangonana sy ny Apostoly ary ny loholona, ka dia nilaza izay rehetra efa nataon’ Andriamanitra tamin’ ny nombany azy.
And arriving into Jerusalem, they were received by the church, and the apostles, and the elders, and they proclaimed so many things as God did with them.
5 Fa ny mino sasany, izay isan’ ny antokon’ ny Fariseo kosa, dia nitsangana ka nanao hoe: Tsy maintsy forana ireny ka asaina mitandrina ny lalàn’ i Mosesy.
And certain one of those from the sect of the Pharisees having believed arose up, saying that, It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.
6 Ary dia nivory ny Apostoly sy ny loholona mba hihevitra izany zavatra izany.
And the apostles and elders were convened to see about this problem.
7 Ary rehefa nisy ady hevitra be ihany, dia nitsangana Petera ka nanao taminy hoe: Ry rahalahy, fantatrareo fa hatramin’ ny ela Andriamanitra dia efa nifidy teo aminareo fa amin’ ny vavako no handrenesan’ ny jentilisa ny tenin’ ny filazantsara ka hinoany.
And there being much disputation, Peter, having arisen, said to them, Men, brethren, you know that from ancient days God chose among you, that the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel through my mouth, and believe.
8 Ary Andriamanitra, Izay mahalala ny fo, dia vavolombelony tamin’ ny nanomezany azy ny Fanahy Masìna tahaka antsika koa;
And God, who knows the heart, witnessed to them, giving to them the Holy Ghost, as also to us;
9 fa tsy nataony misy hafa isika sy izy, fa nodioviny tamin’ ny finoana ny fony.
and made no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
10 Koa nahoana ianareo no maka fanahy an’ Andriamanitra amin’ ny fametrahanareo zioga amin’ ny vozon’ ny mpianatra, izay tsy zakan’ ny razantsika na isika ho entina?
Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke on the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
11 Fa mino isika fa ny fahasoavan’ i Jesosy Tompo no hamonjena antsika, dia tahaka ny azy ihany koa.
But through the grace of our Lord Jesus, we believe that we are saved, in the same manner in which they are also.
12 Dia nangina ny olona rehetra ka nihaino an’ i Barnabasy sy Paoly, izay nilaza ny famantarana sy ny fahagagana nampanaovin’ Andriamanitra azy tany amin’ ny jentilisa.
And the whole multitude became silent, and continued to hear Barnabas and Paul, relating how many miracles and wonders God wrought among the Gentiles through them.
13 Ary rehefa nitsahatra tsy niteny izy roa lahy, dia namaly Jakoba ka nanao hoe: Ry rahalahy, mihainoa ahy:
And after they became silent, James responded, saying, Men, brethren, hear me.
14 Simeona efa nanambara izay nitsinjovan’ Andriamanitra ny jentilisa tamin’ ny voalohany hanalany olona aminy hankalazana ny anarany.
Symeon hath related how God in the first place interposed to take a people from the Gentiles, in His name.
15 Ary mifanaraka amin’ izany ny tenin’ ny mpaminany, araka ny voasoratra hoe:
And to this corresponds the words of the prophet; as has been written,
16 Rehefa afaka izany, dia hiverina Aho Ka hanangana ny trano-lain’ i Davida izay efa nianjera; Ary hanangana izay efa rava ao Aho Ka hanamboatra azy indray;
After these things I will return, and will build again the throne of David, which has fallen down; and will build again the ruins of the same, and will set it up again:
17 Mba hitady ny Tompo ny olona sisa sy ny jentilisa rehetra, Izay efa niantsoana ny anarako, hoy Jehovah,
in order that the residue of men may seek out the Lord, even all the Gentiles, on whom my name has been called upon them, says the Lord, who doeth these things
known from the beginning. (aiōn g165)
19 Koa dia izao no hevitro: Tsy mety raha isika manome fahasahiranana ny avy amin’ ny jentilisa izay miverina ho amin’ Andriamanitra;
Therefore I judge, that we should not burden those from the Gentiles turning to God:
20 fa aoka hanoratra epistily aminy isika mba hifadiany ny hena fahavetavetana aterina amin’ ny sampy sy ny fijangajangana ary ny zavatra kendaina sy ny rà.
but to command them to abstain from things offered to idols, and from fornication, and from strangulation, and from blood.
21 Fa hatramin’ ny razana fahiny dia manana izay mitory azy ao amin’ ny isan-tanàna Mosesy, fa vakina ao amin’ ny synagoga rehetra isan-tSabata ny teniny.
For Moses from ancient generations, has those preaching him in every city, being read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.
22 Ary sitraky ny Apostoly sy ny loholona mbamin’ ny fiangonana rehetra ny hifidy olona amin’ ny namany mba hirahina hiaraka amin’ i Paoly sy Barnabasy hankany Antiokia, dia Joda, izay atao hoe Barnabasy, sy Silasy, izay lehilahy samy tsara laza eo amin’ ny rahalahy;
Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, along with the whole church, to send men chosen from them into Antioch along with Paul and Barnabas; Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, leaders among the brethren:
23 ary nanoratra taratasy izy ho entin’ ireo, dia izao: Ny Apostoly sy ny rahalahy loholona miarahaba ny rahalahy avy amin’ ny jentilisa izay any Antiokia sy Syria ary Kilikia.
having written through their hand; The apostles and elders, brethren to the brethren who are from the Gentiles throughout Antioch and Syria and Cilicia greeting.
24 Satria efa renay fa ny sasany izay avy tany aminay efa nanao teny nampitabataba anareo ka namadika ny sainareo, kanefa tsy nasainay nanao izany izy,
Since we heard that certain ones having come out from us troubled you, disturbing your souls with words which we did not command:
25 dia sitrakay, rehefa nifanara-kevitra, ny hifidy olona hirahina hankatỳ aminareo hiaraka amin’ i Barnabasy sy Paoly malalanay,
it seemed good to us, being of one accord, having chosen men to send them to you along with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
26 lehilahy izay nanao ny ainy tsy ho zavatra ho voninahitry ny anaran’ i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika.
men who have imperiled their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
27 Dia nirahinay Joda sy Silasy, sady hilaza vava izany teny izany koa izy.
Therefore we have sent Judas and Silas, themselves also proclaiming the same things by speech.
28 Fa sitraky ny Fanahy Masìna sy izahay tsy hampitondra enta-mavesatra anareo afa-tsy izao zavatra tsy maintsy hotandremana izao ihany:
For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no more burden than these necessary things,
29 dia ny hifadianareo ny hena aterina amin’ ny sampy sy ny rà sy ny zavatra kendaina ary ny fijangajangana; raha mahatandrin-tena hifady izany ianareo, dia ho soa. Veloma ianareo.
to abstain from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which keeping yourselves, you will do well. Fare ye well.
30 Ary rehefa nalefany izy ireo, dia nidina nankany Antiokia; ary namory ny olona maro izy, dia natolony ilay epistily.
Then indeed they, having been sent away, came down into Antioch, and convening the multitude, they delivered the letter.
31 Ary nony efa namaky izany ny olona, dia nifaly noho ny anatra tsara.
And having read it, they rejoiced over the consolation.
32 Ary satria mpaminany Joda sy Silasy, dia namporisika ny rahalahy tamin’ ny teny maro izy ka nampahery azy.
Both Judas and Silas, themselves also being prophets, exhorted the brethren with elaborate speech, and strengthened them;
33 Ary rehefa nitoetra elaela teo izy ireo, dia nampandehanin’ ny rahalahy soa aman-tsara ho any amin’ izay naniraka azy.
and having spent the time, they were discharged by the brethren with peace back to the apostles who sent them.
35 Ary Paoly sy Barnabasy kosa nitoetra tany Antiokia; dia nampianatra sy nitory ny tenin’ ny Tompo izy roa lahy mbamin’ ny maro koa.
And Paul and Barnabas tarried in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, also along with many others.
36 Ary rehefa afaka andro vitsivitsy, dia hoy Paoly tamin’ i Barnabasy: Andeha isika hiverina hamangy ny rahalahy any amin’ ny tanàna rehetra izay efa nitoriantsika ny tenin’ ny Tompo, hahitantsika izay toetrany.
And after many days Paul said to Barnabas, Having returned let us now visit the brethren in every city in which we preached the word of the Lord, how they are doing.
37 Ary tian’ i Barnabasy ny hitondra an’ i Jaona, izay atao hoe Marka, hiaraka aminy.
But Barnabas advised to take with them John, also called Mark.
38 Nefa nataon’ i Paoly fa tsy tokony ho entiny miaraka aminy izy, satria nandao azy tany Pamfylia ka tsy niaraka taminy ho any amin’ ny raharaha.
But Paul thought that he would not take with them, him who having departed from them from Pamphylia, and not having gone along with them into the work.
39 Ary nifanditra mafy izy roa lahy ka nisaraka; ary Barnabasy nitondra an’ i Marka, dia niondrana an-tsambo nankany Kyprosy.
But there was a paroxysm, so that they parted from one another, and Barnabas, taking Mark, sailed away into Cyprus.
40 Fa Paoly kosa nifidy an’ i Silasy, dia niainga, rehefa natolotry ny rahalahy ho amin’ ny fahasoavan’ ny Tompo izy.
And Paul, having chosen Silas, went out, committed to the grace of the Lord by the brethren;
41 Dia nandeha namaky an’ i Syria sy Kilikia izy nampahery ny fiangonana tany.
and he traveled through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.
