< Asan'ny Apostoly 16 >

1 Nimb’e Derbe naho mb’e Listra añe t’i Paoly le nanjo ty mpiòke atao Timoty, ana’ ty rakemba Jiosy, mpiato; Grika ty rae’e.
He came also to Derbe and Lystra. And look, a certain talmid was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who believed; but his father was a Greek.
2 Nitalili-soa aze o rahalahy e Listra naho Ikaoniomao.
The brothers who were at Lystra and Iconium gave a good testimony about him.
3 Niteà’ i Paoly ty hindreza’e lia, le rinambe’e vaho nisavare’e ty amo Jiosy nitobokeo, amy te songa nahafohiñe ty rae’e ondatio t’ie Grika.
Paul wanted to have him go out with him, and he took and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts; for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
4 Ie niranga i rova rey le nitaroñe o fañè najado’ i Firàheñe naho i beim-pivory e Ierosaleme añe rey hambenañeo.
As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered the decrees to them to keep which had been ordained by the emissaries and elders who were at Jerusalem.
5 Aa le niventèñe am-patokisañe o Fivorio vaho nitovoñe lomoñandro.
So the congregations were strengthened in the faith, and increased in number daily.
6 Nañariary mb’e Frigià naho am-paripari’ i Galate iereo, amy te rinara’ i Arofo Masiñey tsy hitaroñe i tsaray an-tane’ Asia añe.
When they had gone through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, they were forbidden by the Ruach ha-Kodesh to speak the word in Asia.
7 Ie pok’ e Misià eo, le nipay higodañe mb’e Bitinia fe tsy napo’ i Arofo’ Iesoày.
When they had come opposite Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Ruach of Yeshua did not allow them.
8 Aa le rinio’ iereo ty Misià vaho nizotso mbe Troasy mb’eo.
Passing by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
9 Nisodehañe amy Paoly haleñe añ’ aroñaroñe t’indaty nte Makedonia nijohañe eo nihalaly ama’e ty hoe: Mitsa­hà mb’e Makedonia mb’ etoa hañolots’ anay.
A vision appeared to Paul in the night. There was a man of Macedonia standing, begging him, and saying, "Come over into Macedonia and help us."
10 Ie niaroñaroña’ i Paoly, le nikotepe amy zao zahay hionjoñe mb’e Makedonia añe, fa napota’ay ty hatò t’ie kinanjin’ Añahare hitaroñe am’iereo i talili-soay.
When he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go out to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to proclaim the Good News to them.
11 Aa le nijon-dàkañe boak’ e Troasy naho nivantañe mb’e Samotrakia, vaho nimb’e Neapolia añe amy loak’ àndroy.
Then, setting sail from Troas, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and the day following to Neapolis;
12 Boak’ ao le nimb’e Filipy, ty rova-fiaolo amy fari’ i Makedoniay, fa aman-tobe ty ao. Nitobok’ amy rovay andro tsy ampeampe zahay.
and from there to Philippi, which is a principle city of that district of Macedonia, a colony. We were staying some days in this city.
13 Ie ami’ty andro Sabotse, niavotse i rovay nimb’ añ’olon-tsaka mb’eo, fa inao toem-pitalahoañe ty ey, le nitoboke nifanaontsy amo rakemba nivorivorio.
On the Sabbath day we went forth outside of the gate by a riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, and we sat down, and spoke to the women who had come together.
14 Nahatsendreñe ty rakemba atao Lidiae, mpanao balike lamba malò-mavo an-drova atao Tiatira, mpitalaho aman’ Añahare; le sinoka’ i Talè ty arofo’e vaho hinao’e ty nitaroña’ i Paoly.
A certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one who worshiped God, heard us; whose heart the Lord opened to listen to the things which were spoken by Paul.
15 Ie nalipotse naho o añ’anjomba’eo le nambarà’e ami’ty hoe: Naho atokisa’ areo ty fiatoako amy Talè, le mihovà an-trañoko vaho mañialoa ao. Le nazì’e zahay.
When she and her household were immersed, she urged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and stay." So she persuaded us.
16 Teo t’ie nimb’am-pitalahoam-beo ro nifanojeha ami’ty ampela amam-pañahy nahafitoky, ie nanontoñe vara maro amo talè’eo amy fizeke’ey.
It happened, as we were going to prayer, that a certain girl having a spirit of Python met us, who brought her masters much gain by fortune telling.
17 Norihe’e t’i Paoly naho zahay nitazataza ty hoe: Mpitoron’ Añahare Andindimoneñey ondati-retia, mpanoro antika i lalam-pandrombahañey.
She followed Paul and us, shouting, "These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to you the way of salvation."
18 Andro maro t’ie nitolom-panao izay. Aa ie niembetse t’i Paoly, nitolike le nanoe’e ty hoe amy angatsey: Lilieko amy tahina’ Iesoà Norizañey, Iakaro! Le nifaok’ ama’e amy oray avao.
She was doing this for many days. But Paul, becoming greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, "I command you in the name of Yeshua the Messiah to come out of her." And it came out at once.
19 Aa ie nirendre’ o tompo’eo te nifaok’ am’iereo ka ty fitama’ iareo vara, le tsinepa’ iereo t’i Paoly naho i Silasy vaho kinovovò’ iereo mb’ an-tsena mb’ aolo’ ondaty beio mb’eo,
But when her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they seized Paul and Silas, and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers.
20 le nase­se añatrefa’ o bei’ i rovaio, naho nanoa’ iareo ty hoe: Mampirehoreho ty rova toy ondaty retiañe, fa Jiosy,
When they had brought them to the magistrates, they said, "These men, being Jews, are agitating our city,
21 vaho mandrisike sata faly tsy mete rambesentika ndra hambenan-tika nte-Roma.
and set forth customs which it is not lawful for us to accept or to observe, being Romans."
22 Aa le nitrao-piongake hiatreatre am’ iareo i lahialeñey; naho nihaloe’ o beio am’iareo o saro’eo vaho linily t’ie ho fofohen-kobaiñe.
The crowd rose up together against them, and the magistrates tore their clothes off of them, and commanded them to be beaten with rods.
23 Aa ie kinabo­kabo’ iareo fofoke, le natafasiotse am-pandrohizañe ao vaho nafantok’ amy mpigarim-balabeiy te hambenañe soa.
When they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely,
24 Kanao izay ty nandiliañe aze, le najo’e am-po’ ty efetse làlek’ ao iereo, vaho nazi’e an-dabarò o fandia’eo.
who, having received such a command, threw them into the inner prison, and secured their feet in the stocks.
25 Aa ie nimatokalembey, naho niloloke naho nisabo aman’ Añahare avao t’i Paoly naho i Silasy am-pijanjiña’ o mpirohio,
But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.
26 le nivovoa’ ty ezeñezen-tane ra’elahy, nahafiozoñozoñe o faha’ i porozòio, songa sinoka’e o lalam-beio vaho sindre binala’e o silisilio.
Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone's bonds were loosened.
27 Tsekak’ amy firota’ey i mpi­garim-balabeiy le naheo’e te nidañadaña o lalam-beim-balabeio vaho napontsoa’e ty fibara’e hamoy aiñe amy te natao’e te nibolatitse o rinohio.
The jailer, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.
28 Fe pinaza’ i Paoly ty hoe: Ko mijoy vatañe! Hene atoan-jahay!
But Paul shouted loudly, saying, "Do not harm yourself, for we are all here."
29 Aa le nitoka jiro i mpigaritsey naho nihitrike mb’eo nititititike vaho nihotrak’ am-pandia’ i Paoly naho i Silasy eo.
He called for lights and sprang in, and, fell down trembling before Paul and Silas,
30 Nakare’e le nanoe’e ty hoe: O androanavio, ino ty hanoeko handrombahako fiaiñe?
and brought them out and said, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?"
31 Le hoe iereo: atokiso i Talè Iesoà, le ho rombaheñe—ihe naho o añ’an­jomba’oo,
They said, "Believe in the Lord Yeshua, and you will be saved, you and your household."
32 le nitaroña’e ty tsara’ Iehovà vaho amo añ’ anjomba’e iabio.
They spoke the word of the Lord to him, and to all who were in his house.
33 Nindese’e amy ora’ i haleñeiy iereo nanasa o fereo, le nalipotse, ie naho o aze iabio;
He took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes, and was immediately immersed, he and all his household.
34 naho nampihovae’e añ’anjomba’e ao iereo naho nanjotsoa’e vaho nirebeke te niatoa’e t’i Andria­nañahare, ie naho o keleia’e iabio.
He brought them up into his house, and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly, with all his household, having believed in God.
35 Ie nazava i àndroy, le nirahe’ o beio o lahindefoñeo ami’ty hoe: Avotsoro indaty rey.
But when it was day, the magistrates sent the sergeants, saying, "Let those men go."
36 Aa le natalili’ i mpigaritsey amy Paoly i entañey, ami’ty hoe: Fa nampañitrike ty hoe o beio t’ie ho hahàñe. Miavota arè, mañaveloa am-panintsiñañe.
The jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, "The magistrates have sent to let you go; now therefore come out, and go in peace."
37 Fa hoe t’i Paoly am’iereo: Vinangovango’ iareo am-batraike tsy aman-jaka, zahay nte-Roma, vaho najo’ iareo am-balabey ao. Aa vaho haronjeñe mb’eo hao henaneo am-pianjiñañe? Aiy! Soa te ie ro homb’ etoa hañavotse anay.
But Paul said to them, "They have beaten us publicly, without a trial, men who are Romans, and have cast us into prison. Do they now release us secretly? No indeed. Let them come themselves and bring us out."
38 Ie natalili’ i mpigaritse rey amo beio i saontsiy, le nihembañe te nahajanjiñe t’ie nte-Roma.
The sergeants reported these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Romans,
39 Aa le nimb’ eo iereo nifelek’ am’ iareo, nanese vaho nihalaly t’ie hiavotse i rovay.
and they came and apologized to them. When they had brought them out, they asked them to depart from the city.
40 Niakatse i porozòy iereo le nimb’ añ’ anjomba’ i Lidiae mb’ eo naho nahaoniñe o rahalahio naho nañohò iareo, vaho nienga.
They went out of the prison, and entered into Lydia's house. When they had seen the brothers, they encouraged them, and departed.
