Acts 24
1 Pans-din pichete mukhyo purohit Ananias aru kunba bura khan aru ekjon ukil jun laga naam Tertullus asele, taikhan arubi ahikena Governor ke Paul bhirodh te kotha koise.
After five days, Ananias the chief priest, certain elders, and an orator named Tertullus went there. These men brought charges against Paul before the governor.
2 Aru jitia Paul ke Governor age te anise, Tertullus taike golti dikene eneka koise, “Apuni karone amikhan bisi shanti thaki ase, aru etu desh te apuni laga gyaan pora bodli korise;
When Paul stood before the governor, Tertullus began to accuse him and said to the governor, “Because of you we have great peace, and your foresight brings good reform to our nation;
3 Amikhan laga sob jagah te aru hodai etu karone khushi pora apuni ke dhanyavad kori thake.
so with all thankfulness we welcome everything that you do, most excellent Felix.
4 Hoilebi, apuni laga homoi aru bhi nolobole, ami apuni logot te anurodh ase, morom kori amikhan laga ekta kotha huni bhi.
So that I detain you no more, I ask you to briefly listen to me with kindness.
5 Kelemane etu manu to mara-mari kore aru duniya te thaka Yehudi khan laga sob jagah te bhirodh aru gondugol kori thaka Nazareth manu ekjon cholawta ase, amikhan jani paise.
For we have found this man to be a pest and one who causes all the Jews throughout the world to rebel. He is a leader of the Nazarene sect.
6 Tai mondoli ke bhi apobitro kori bole bisarisele, etu nimite amikhan taike dhuri loise, aru ami laga niyom pora taike bisar koribo thakise.
He even tried to desecrate the temple, so we arrested him.
7 Kintu henapoti pora Lysias te ahi kene joborjosti amikhan laga hath pora taike dhori loi jaise.
8 Taike golti diya khan ke apuni usorte ahi kobole koise, kintu apuni nijor hudile jani jabo amikhan taike ki karone golti di ase.”
When you question Paul about all these matters, you will be able to learn about these charges we are bringing against him.”
9 Aru Yehudi khan bhi mili kene taike etu sob kotha to hosa ase koi dise.
The Jews also joined in the accusation, affirming that these charges were true.
10 Titia Governor Paul ke kotha kobole nimite koise, titia Paul koise, “Ami bujhi ase apuni bisi saal pora etu jati khan laga bisar kori ahi thakise, etu karone moi khushi pora ami laga sob kotha apuni ke kobole ase.
But when the governor motioned for Paul to speak, Paul answered, “I understand that for many years you have been a judge to this nation, and so I gladly explain myself to you.
11 Kelemane apuni nijor jani jabo moi jitia pora aradhana kori bole Jerusalem te ahise, baroh-din pora bisi huwa nai.
You will be able to find out that it has not been more than twelve days since I went up to worship in Jerusalem.
12 Aru taikhan moike mondoli aru mondoli aru sheher te kun logot te bhi kotha namila, nohoile gondugol lagi thaka pa-a nai.
When they found me in the temple, I did not argue with anyone, and I did not stir up a crowd, either in the synagogues, or in the city.
13 Aru taikhan ki kotha loi moike bodnam lagai ase, etu kun bhi sakhi dibo na paribo.
They cannot prove to you the accusations they are now making against me.
14 Kintu moi apuni ke hosa kotha koi ase, taikhan juntu Rasta ke ekta dol mati ase, eneka laga rasta pora Isor ke sewa kori ahise. Ki niyom te ase aru ki bhabobadi khan pora likhise, etu sob te moi bhal pora mani kene ahise.
But I admit this to you, that according to the Way that they call a sect, in that same way I serve the God of our fathers. I am faithful to all that is in the law and the writings of the prophets.
15 Aru ami Isor ke mon dangor laga etu asha ase, juntu etu manu khan nijor bhi rukhi ase, juntu to ase mori kene jinda hobole thaka, dharmik aru adharmik khan sob bhi.
I have the same confident hope in God as these men, that there will be a resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked.
16 Etu karone moi Isor phale bhi aru manu phale bhi sapha bhabona bhal thakibo karone kosis kori thakise.
So I always strive to have a clear conscience before God and human beings.
17 Aru bisi saal pichete moi nijor jati khan ke poisa dibole anise, dukh thaka jati khan ke daan dibole anise.
Now after many years I came to bring help to my nation and gifts of money.
18 Taikhan ami etu kori thaka dikhise, mondoli pora sapha kori loi kene, bhir nohoile gondugol bhi thaka nai.
When I did this, certain Jews from Asia found me in a purification ceremony in the temple, not with a crowd or an uproar.
19 Aru kunba Yehudi khan Asia pora ahise, taikhan ami laga bhirodh te thakile, taikhan apuni usorte ahi kene kobo lage.
These men ought to be before you now and say what they have against me, if they have anything.
20 Nohoile, yate etu manu thaka khan bhi jodi moi kiba golti kaam kora paise koile moi Yehudi sabha usorte khara thaka homoi te koi dibi,
Or else, these same men should say what wrong they found in me when I stood before the Jewish council,
21 khali ekta kotha karone ase, juntu moi sob manu usorte koisele, ‘Mora khan aru jee uthibo, etu kotha ke loi aji moike apuni usorte khara kori bisar kori ase.’”
unless it is about this one thing that I shouted out when I stood among them, 'It is concerning the resurrection of those who have died that I am on trial before you today.'”
22 Jitia Felix etu kotha hunise, tai aru poritran Rasta ke bhal pora janibo mon hoi kene, taikhan ke rukhai dise. Tai koise, “Jitia sipahi laga senapoti Lysias Jerusalem pora ahibo, moi tumi laga bisar koribo.”
Then Felix, who was well informed about the Way, ajourned the hearing. He said, “When Lysias the commander comes down from Jerusalem, I will decide your case.”
23 Aru tai henapoti ke koi kene Paul ke bondhi ghor te rakhise, hoilebi taike bhi bandi narakhikena khula chari dibole koise, aru tai sathi khan tai logote ahibole bhi mana na koribi koise.
Then he commanded the centurion that Paul should be kept under guard, but to have some freedom so that none of his friends would be prevented from attending to his needs.
24 Aru olop din pichete Felix tai laga Yehudi maiki Drusilla logote wapas ahise, jun Yehudini asele, aru tai Paul ke mati bole pathaise aru tai Paul dwara hunise Jisu Khrista ke biswas laga kotha.
After some days, Felix returned with Drusilla his wife, a Jewess, and he sent for Paul and he heard from him about faith in Christ Jesus.
25 Aru jitia Paul pora taike dhormikta aru nijorke rukhabo para aru aha dinte bisar hobole thaka kotha khan thik pora koi dise, Felix bisi bhoi koi kene koise, “Etu bar to jai jabi. Jitia moi homoi pabo titia tumike aru matibo.”
But when Paul reasoned with him about righteousness, self-control, and the coming judgment, Felix became frightened and said, “Go away for now. But when I have the opportunity later on, I will send for you.”
26 Tai Paul pora poisa bhi pabo bhabikena tai hodai Paul ke mati ani kotha kori thakisele.
At the same time he wanted Paul to give money to him, so he often sent for him and spoke with him.
27 Kintu dui saal pichete Porcius Festus he Felix jagah te Governor hoi jaise, kintu Felix to Yehudi khan ke khushi kori bole mon asele, aru tai Paul ke bondh kora jagate he aru bhi thaki bole dise.
But when two years passed, Porcius Festus became the governor after Felix, but Felix wanted to gain favor with the Jews, so he left Paul to continue under guard.
