Pakhonchatpa 15
1 Judea-dagi mi khara Antioch-ta laklaga “Moses-ki Wayel Yathanggi matung inna nakhoina un-kaktrabadi nakhoi kanbiba phangloi” haina thajabasingda tambirammi.
And, certain persons, coming down from Judea, began to teach the brethren—Except ye be circumcised according to the custom of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
2 Masigi matangda Paul amasung Barnabas-na makhoiga yamna kanna yetnarammi. Maram aduna Paul amasung Barnabas amadi Antioch-tagi thajaba kharaga loinana Jerusalem-da masigi matangda pakhonchatpasing amadi ahal lamansing unaba chatnaba leplammi.
And, when Paul and Barnabas had had no little dissension and discussion with them, it was arranged that Paul and Barnabas and certain others from among them should go up unto the Apostles and Elders in Jerusalem concerning this question,
3 Singlupna makhoibu thabirammi aduga makhoina Phoenicia amadi Samaria phaoduna chatpada Jihudi nattabasingna Tengban Mapuda mai onsillakpagi pao makhoina tamlammi maduda thajaba pumnamak yamna haraorammi.
They, therefore, being set forward by the Assembly, began passing through Phoenicia and Samaria, fully relating the conversion of them of the nations, and were causing great joy unto all the brethren.
4 Makhoina Jerusalem-da thungbada singlup amasung pakhonchatpasing amadi ahal lamansingna makhoibu taramna oklammi aduga Tengban Mapuna makhoigi mapanna toubikhiba thabak pumnamak makhoida tamlammi.
And, having arrived in Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the Assembly and the Apostles and the Elders; and they recounted all things God had done with them.
5 Adubu Pharisee-singgi kangluptagi thajaraba mioi kharana lepkhatlaktuna hairak-i, “Jihudi nattaba makhoi un-kakpa tai aduga Moses-ki Wayel Yathang innaba haiba tai.”
But there [had] stood forth some of those who, from the sect of Pharisees, had believed, saying—It is needful to be circumcising them, also to charge them to be keeping the law of Moses.
6 Maram aduna wapham asi khannanaba pakhonchatpasing amadi ahal lamansing punna unarammi.
And the Apostles and Elders were gathered together to see about this matter.
7 Makhoina kuina khannaraba matungda Peter-na lepkhattuna hairak-i, “Ichil-inaosa, Jihudi nattaba phurupsingna eigi chindagi Aphaba Pao asi taraga thajaraknaba matam kharagi mamangda nakhoigi naraktagi eibu Tengban Mapuna khandopikkhiba adu nakhoina khang-i.
And, when much discussion had arisen, Peter standing up, said unto them—Brethren! Ye yourselves, well know that, in days long past, amongst you, God chose that, through my mouth, the nations should hear the word of the glad tidings, and believe.
8 Mi pumnamakki thamoibu khangbiba Tengban Mapu mahakna makhoibu yabi haibasi Ibungo mahakna eikhoida Thawai Asengba pibibagumna makhoidasu Thawai Asengba pibiduna utpire.
And, the heart-observing God, bare witness, —unto them, giving the Holy Spirit, just as, even unto us;
9 Ibungona eikhoiga makhoigagi marakta karisu khennaba thambide, maramdi makhoigi thajabagi mapanna Ibungona makhoigi thamoibu sengdokpire.
and made no distinction at all betwixt us and them, by their faith, purifying their hearts.
10 Maram aduna eikhoigi ipa ipusingnasu aduga eikhoinasu puba ngamdaba potlum adubu thajabasinggi mathakta thanggattuna eikhoina karigi Tengban Mapubu chang yenggadouribano?
Now, therefore, why are ye proving God, that ye should put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which, neither our fathers, nor we, have been able to bear.
11 Madu touroidabani! Makhoida oibagumna, eikhoisu Ibungo Jisugi thoujalna kanbiba phangle haiba eikhoina thajei.”
But, through the favour of the Lord Jesus, we believe we shall be saved, in like manner as, even they.
12 Tengban Mapuna makhoigi mapanna Jihudi nattabasinggi marakta angakpa thabaksing amadi khudamsing toukhiba adu Paul amadi Barnabas-na paodamba aduda miyam pumnakna tumin leiduna tarammi.
And all the throng held their peace, and began to hearken unto Barnabas and Paul relating how many signs and wonders God had done among the nations, through them.
13 Makhoina ngangba loirabada Jacob-na hairak-i, “Ichil-inaosa, eina haiba tabiyu.
And, after they held their peace, James answered, saying—Brethren! hearken unto me.
14 Jihudi nattabasingdagi Ibungo mahakki oiba mising khandokpiduna Tengban Mapuna makhoigidamak khanbi haibasi ahanba oina utpiba adu Simon-na sandokna haibikhre.
Symeon, hath fully told how God, first visited, to take out of the nations, a people for his name.
15 Masigi thoudok asi Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba maichousingna haikhiba wasing aduga chanei. Mapugi puyada asumna iduna lei,
And, with this, agree the words of the prophets, according as it is written—
16 ‘Masigi matungda ei hallakkani, haibi Ibungona, aduga David-ki tukhraba phiyum amuk sagatpigani. Ningkhaikhraba adu eina amuk sagatkani aduga hannagi phibhamda thambigani.
After these things, will I return, and will rebuild the tent of David that hath fallen, and, the ruins thereof, will I rebuild, and will set it up again:
17 Aduga mioi atei pumnamak MAPU IBUNGO-bu thijagani, eigi oinaba koukhraba Jihudi nattabasing pumnamaksu.
That the residues of men may seek out the Lord, and all the nations upon whom my name hath been called, saith the Lord that doeth these things,
Known from age-past times. (aiōn g165)
19 Jacob-na makha tana hairak-i, “Eigi oinadi, Jihudi nattabasingna Tengban Mapuda mai onsillakpada eikhoina wahanba oihan-gumsi.
Wherefore, I, judge, not to be troubling them who, from the nations, are turning unto God;
20 Madugi mahutta lai murtida kattuna mangthoklaba chinjak, nupa nupi oktaba lamchat chatpa, mangak leithattuna hatpa sa amadi ee chaba hairibasing asidagi lapthoknaba eikhoina makhoida i-si.
but to write unto them, to abstain from the pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from what is strangled, and from blood.
21 Maramdi mamangngeidagi houna Moses-ki Wayel Yathang asi synagogue-singda Potthaba numit khudingda pari aduga mahakki waheisingbu sahar khudingda sandokli.”
For, Moses, out of ancient generation, hath, in every city, them who proclaim him; seeing, that in the synagogues, every sabbath, he is read.
22 Adudagi makhoigi maraktagi mi khara khallaga Paul amadi Barnabas-ka loinana Antioch-ta thanaba pakhonchatpasing, ahal lamansing amasung singlup apunbana lepnarammi. Thajabasinggi marakta luchingba oiriba mioi ani haibadi Barsabbas hainasu kouba Judas amadi Silas-pu makhoina khallammi.
Then, seemed it good unto the Apostles and the Elders with the whole Assembly to send chosen men from among them unto Antioch, with Paul and Barnabas, —even Judas who is called Barsabbas, and Silas, men taking a lead among the brethren:
23 Makhoina masigi ayiba che adu makhoida puhallammi: “Pakhonchatpasing, ahal lammansing amasung nakhoigi nachin nanaosing eikhoina, Antioch, Syria amadi Cilicia-da leiba eikhoigi Jihudi nattaba ichil inaosing nakhoibu khurumjari.
writing through their hand—The Apostles and the Elder Brethren, unto the brethren throughout Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, who are from among the nations, wish joy!
24 Eikhoigi iraktagi chatkhiba mioi kharana haiba waphamdagi nakhoigi pukning olang onsaonahalle amasung nungaihandre. Adubu makhoidi eikhoidagi ayaba yaoraga chatkhiba natte.
Inasmuch as we had heard that, certain from among us, had troubled you with words, dismantling your souls, —unto whom we had given no instructions,
25 Maram aduna eikhoi punna tinnare aduga nakhoigi nanakta thananaba pao puba khara eikhoina khandokpa yanare. Eikhoigi Mapu Ibungo Jisu Christtagidamak thawai katthoklaba nungsijaraba marup Paul amadi Barnabas-ka loinana makhoi chatminnagani.
It seemed good unto us, coming to be of one accord, that we should choose men and send them unto you, with our beloved Barnabas and Paul, —
men who have given up their lives in behalf of the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
27 Maram aduna eikhoina i-khraba adumak makhoimakna hainanaba nakhoigi nanakta Judas amadi Silas-pu eikhoina thare.
We have sent, therefore, Judas and Silas, who also, themselves, by word of mouth, can tell you the same things.
28 Maru oiba hiramsing asi nattana atoppa potlum amamuk nakhoida thanggattaba haibasi Thawai Asengbanasu eikhoinasu phei haina khalle:
For it hath seemed good unto the Holy Spirit and unto us, no greater burden, to be laying upon you, than these necessary things: —
29 madudi lai murtida katpa chinjak chadaba; ee chadaba; mangak leithattuna hatpa sa chadaba; nupa nupigi oiba lamchat naidaba thabaktagi lapthokpa hairibasing asini. Nakhoina hairibasing asi toudaba haibasi nakhoigi aphabani. Kainarasi.”
To be abstaining from idol sacrifices, and from blood, and from what is strangled, and from fornication, —From which, if ye keep yourselves, ye shall prosper. Fare ye well.
30 Pao pubasing adu thakhrabada makhoina Antioch-ta chatlammi aduga mapham aduda makhoina thajabasingbu khomjillaga ayiba che adu makhoida sinnarammi.
They, therefore, being let go, came down unto Antioch; and, having gathered together the throng, delivered the letter,
31 Mising aduna madu parammi aduga madugi pukning thougatpa waheising aduda makhoi haraorammi.
and, when they read it, they rejoiced for the consolation.
32 Judas amadi Silas makhoi animak Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpa maichou oiba maramna makhoibu pukning thougatpiduna amadi panggal happiduna matam sangna wa nganglammi.
And, both Judas and Silas, being themselves also prophets, with much discourse, consoled and confirmed the brethren.
33 Mapham aduda matam khara leiraba tungda thajabasing aduna makhoibu thabirakpasing adugi maphamda ingthana thabire.
And, when they had spent a time, they were let go, in peace, from the brethren, unto them who had sent them.
34 [Adum oinamak Silas-nadi mapham aduda leithaba phagani haina khankhi.]
35 Adubu Paul amasung Barnabas-ti mi kaya amaga loinana tambiduna amasung Mapu Ibungogi wa sandoktuna matam khara Antioch-ta leitharammi.
But, Paul and Barnabas, tarried in Antioch, teaching and telling the joyful tidings, —along with many others also, —of the word of the Lord.
36 Matam khara leiraga Paul-na Barnabas-ta hairak-i, “Eikhoina Mapu Ibungogi wa sandoklamba saharsingda amuk hanna chattuna thajabasing adu karam touribage haibadu yenglusi.”
And, after certain days, Paul, said unto Barnabas—Let us now return, and visit the brethren in every city in which we have declared the word of the Lord, and see how they are.
37 Barnabas-na John Mark-pu makhoiga loinana puba pamlammi
And, Barnabas, was minded to take with them John also, called Mark;
38 adubu mahakna thabak loiba phaoba makhoiga leiminnadana mahakna Pamphylia-da makhoibu thadoklamlaga hankhiba maramna Paul-nadi mahak puba haibasi chumde haina khallammi.
but Paul deemed it right, as to him who had withdrawn from them, back from Pamphylia, and had not gone with them unto the work, not to be taking with them, this, man.
39 Kanna yetnaba thorakpadagi makhoi ani khainarammi: Barnabas-na Mark-pu puduna Cyprus-ta hi tongduna chatkhi
And there arose an angry feeling, so that they separated one from the other: and, Barnabas, taking Mark, sailed away unto Cyprus, —
40 adubu thajabasingna makhoibu Mapu Ibungogi thoujalda sinnabiraga Paul-na Silas-pu khallaga chatkhirammi.
whereas, Paul, choosing Silas, went forth, committed unto the favour of the Lord by the brethren,
41 Mahakna Syria amadi Cilicia phaoduna chatlaga singlupsingbu panggal happirammi.
and proceeded to pass through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the assemblies.
