Asan'ny Apostoly 28
1 Ie nihaha amy varatay, le naharendreke te atao Melita i tokonosey.
And when they were come safe, then they knewe that the Yle was called Melita.
2 Nisoa ty fitretreza’ o tompo-taneo: ie namiañe afo naho nanao an-traño anay, amy te niavy ty orañe vaho nangoratsake.
And the Barbarians shewed vs no litle kindnesse: for they kindled a fire, and receiued vs euery one, because of the present showre, and because of the colde.
3 Nanontoñe fehen-katae t’i Paoly naho napo’e añ’afo ao, fe nakare’ i hafanañey ty mereñe nipitek’ am-pità’e eo.
And when Paul had gathered a nomber of stickes, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heate, and leapt on his hand.
4 Ie niisa’ o tompo-taneo i mereñe niradorado am-pità’ey, le hoe ty vesoveso’ iareo: Tsy mete tsy mpamono, ondatio, le ndra t’ie nivotsotse amy riakey tsy nenga’ ty toly ho veloñe.
Nowe when ye Barbarians saw the worme hang on his hand, they said among themselues, This man surely is a murtherer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet Vengeance hath not suffered to liue.
5 Fe nahifi’e añ’afo ao i mereñey, le tsy niore.
But he shooke off the worme into the fire, and felt no harme.
6 Nitokoe’ iereo ke hiboenatse hera hikorovoke hikenkañe aniany, f’ie nandiñe ela naho tsy nahaoniñan-joy, le nibalintoa ty fivetsevetse’ iareo vaho ndrañahare ka ty nanoeñ’ aze.
Howbeit they wayted whe he should haue swolne, or fallen downe dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and sawe no inconuenience come to him, they changed their mindes, and said, That he was a God.
7 Marine eo ty tane’ i mpiaolo i tokonoseiy, Poplio ty tahina’e. Nandrambe anay antalatala-saba re naho nanoe’e añ’ anjomba’e telo andro.
In the same quarters, the chiefe man of the Yle (whose name was Publius) had possessions: the same receiued vs, and lodged vs three dayes courteously.
8 Ie amy zao, natindry ty hamae-sandriñe naho niazo’ ty tsora-dio ty rae’ i Poplio. Nimoak’ ama’e ao t’i Paoly, le nihalaly naho nampitongoa’e fitàñe, nampijangañ’ aze.
And so it was, that the father of Publius lay sicke of the feauer, and of a bloodie flixe: to whom Paul entred in, and when he prayed, he laide his hands on him, and healed him.
9 Heneke izay, le songa nipoteake eo ze narare ila’e amy tokonosey vaho nijanganeñe.
When this then was done, other also in the Yle, which had diseases, came to him, and were healed,
10 Nanoly fiasiañe ama’ay iereo, le ie ho nionjoñe, natoro’ iereo ze he’e pinai’ay.
Which also did vs great honour: and when we departed, they laded vs with things necessarie.
11 Ie nahamodo telo volañe, le nionjoñe ami’ty lakañe niasotry amy tokonosey. Nte-Aleksandria i lakañey le i Mpihambañe rey ro viloñe andoha’e eo.
Nowe after three moneths we departed in a shippe of Alexandria, which had wintred in the Yle, whose badge was Castor and Pollux.
12 Ie nitoly e Sirakosa, le nitofa telo andro.
And when we arriued at Syracuse, we taried there three dayes.
13 Boak’ ao, nañariary naho nivotrake e Regioma, aa ie nahamodo andro raike, le namaoke ty tiok’ atimo, vaho nipotìtse e Potioly añe amy loak’ àndroy;
And from thence we set a compasse, and came to Rhegium: and after one day, the South wind blewe, and we came the seconde day to Putioli:
14 Nanjo roahalahy eo zahay, naho nampihovae’ iereo hañialo ao fito andro; izay vaho nionjoñe mb’e Roma mb’eo.
Where we found brethren, and were desired to tary with them seuen dayes, and so we went toward Rome.
15 Aa ie nahajanjiñe ty ama’ay o roahalahy añeo, le nihitrike naho nifanalaka ama’ay an-Tsenan’ Apio, amy Hotely Teloy; aa ie tendreke i roahalahy rey t’i Paoly le nañandriañe an’ Andrianañahare vaho nirearea an-troke.
And from thence, when the brethren heard of vs, they came to meete vs at the Market of Appius, and at the Three tauernes, whom when Paul sawe, he thanked God, and waxed bolde.
16 Ie nandoake e Roma ao, le nengañe hiambesatse ie raike t’i Paoly mindre amy lahin-defoñe mpiambeñe azey.
So when we came to Rome, the Centurion deliuered the prisoners to the generall Captaine: but Paul was suffered to dwell by him selfe with a souldier that kept him.
17 Ie nimodo ty telo andro le kinai’ i Paoly o mpiaolo’ o Jiosio, aa naho nifanontoñe, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Ry roahalahy, ndra te tsy nandilatse am’ondatio ndra amo satan-droaen-tikañeo iraho, le nasese an-drohy boak’ Ierosaleme ao mb’am-pità’ o nte-Romao.
And the third day after, Paul called the chiefe of the Iewes together: and when they were come, he said vnto them, Men and brethren, though I haue committed nothing against the people, or Lawes of the fathers, yet was I deliuered prisoner from Hierusalem into the handes of the Romanes.
18 Nalohi’ iareo, le ho hinaha amy te tsy aman-taly hamonoañe ahy.
Who when they had examined me, would haue let me goe, because there was no cause of death in me.
19 Fe nanjehatse o Tehodao, le nazitse iraho hipay to amy Kaisara—tsy t’ie hanese sisý amy tanekoy.
But when the Iewes spake contrary, I was constrained to appeale vnto Cesar, not because I had ought to accuse my nation of.
20 Izay ty nikanjiako anahareo hifankaoniñe naho hifanaontsy. Fa ty fitamàko Israele ty nandrohizañe ahy amo silisilio.
For this cause therefore haue I called for you, to see you, and to speake with you: for that hope of Israels sake, I am bound with this chaine.
21 Hoe iareo tama’e: Mbe tsy nandrambe taratasy boake Iehodà ty ama’o zahay, vaho tsy amo roahalahy boak’ añeo ty nitalily ndra nisaontsy raha tsy mete ty ama’o,
Then they saide vnto him, We neither receiued letters out of Iudea concerning thee, neither came any of the brethren that shewed or spake any euill of thee.
22 f’ie te hijanjiñe azo, o fivetsevetse’oo, fa i firimboñañe zay, fohi’ay te mavoeñe tok’aia tok’aia.
But we will heare of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we knowe that euery where it is spoken against.
23 Ie nifamantañe andro, le maro ty niheo mb’añ’akiba’e mb’eo, le nampalangese’e am’iereo an-taroñe i Fifehean’ Añaharey, le nimanea’e osike ty amy Iesoà boak’ amy Hà’ i Mosè naho hirik’ amo Mpitokio handro pak’ amy hàleñey.
And when they had appointed him a day, there came many vnto him into his lodging, to whom he expounded testifying the kingdome of God, and persuading them those things that concerne Iesus, both out of the Lawe of Moses, and out of the Prophets, from morning to night.
24 Niantoke i enta’ey ty ila’e; tsy nipaoke ka ty ila’e.
And some were persuaded with ye things which were spoken, and some beleeued not.
25 Ie nifanao lie-drokoñe, naho ho niavotse, le nagado’ i Paoly ami’ty saontsy zao: To ty nisaontsie’ i Arofo Masiñey añam’ Isaia mpitoky aman-droae’ areo, ty hoe:
Therefore when they agreed not among themselues, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, to wit, Well spake the holy Ghost by Esaias the Prophet vnto our fathers,
26 Akia am’ondaty retiañe naho taroño ty hoe: Hijanjiñe nainai’e nahareo fe tsy hahafohiñe, vaho hitolom-pañisake f’ie tsy hahaoniñe.
Saying, Goe vnto this people, and say, By hearing ye shall heare, and shall not vnderstand, and seeing ye shall see, and not perceiue.
27 Fa gàñe ty arofo’ ondaty retiañe; le mivalagìñe o ravembia’eo, mbore nakipe’e o fihaino’eo. Tsy mone hahaoniñe am-pihaino, naho hahajanjiñe an-dravembia, naho hahafohiñe añ’arofo, naho hibalintoa, vaho ho jangañeko iereo.
For the heart of this people is waxed fatte, and their eares are dull of hearing, and with their eyes haue they winked, least they shoulde see with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and vnderstand with their heartes, and should returne that I might heale them.
28 Mahafohina arè, te nafantoke ho amo kilakila’ ndatio o fandrombahan’ Añahareo, ie ro hijanjiñe!
Be it knowen therefore vnto you, that this saluation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they shall heare it.
And when he had saide these things, the Iewes departed, and had great reasoning among themselues.
30 Nimoneñe roe taoñe garagadìñe añ’anjomba nafondro’e ao re vaho nampihovà’e iaby ze niheo mb’ama’e,
And Paul remained two yeeres full in an house hired for himselfe, and receiued all that came in vnto him,
31 nitaroñe i Fifehean’ Añaharey naho nañoke i Talè Iesoà Norizañey am-pidadàñe vaho tsy nisebañeñe.
Preaching the kingdome of God, and teaching those things which concerne the Lord Iesus Christ, with all boldnesse of speache, without let.
