Wiawia 28
1 KIT lao pitilar, se ap rongadar, me dake o adaneki Melite.
And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita.
2 A men liki kan me kadek ong kit kaualap, pwe irail saunda kisiniai o kasamo kit karos, pweki katau moremor o pweki kapau.
And the barbarous people shewed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.
3 Paulus lao wasai tui pena o kidi ong nani iai, serpent men ap lusadar sang nani iai pweki karakar o teng ong ni lim a.
And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.
4 A men liki ko lao udial man o a tengeteng ni lim a, re ap kasokasoi nan pung arail: Melel aramas men et me kamelar aramas, a piti sanger nan madau, ap rialar.
And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.
5 I ari sipede wong man o nani iai o sota mesued kot lel ong i.
And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.
6 Irail masamasan, ma a sota pan umposada de pupedi matala, a re lao masamasan warai o kilang, me a so suedi ong, re wukidalar ar lamelam o katitiki, me dene kot amen.
Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.
7 Saupeidi en dake o, me maraneki Puplius, kin sapaneki wasa o, kasamo o apapwali kit ran silu.
In the same quarters were possessions of the chief man of the island, whose name was Publius; who received us, and lodged us three days courteously.
8 A sam en Puplius wononeki somau karakar o somau nta. I me Paulus koti dong re a kapakapaki, pwil lim a kan po a, kakeladar i.
And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on him, and healed him.
9 Men en lao wiauier, karos me somau nin dake, ap kodo kakelailadar.
So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed:
10 O re pil kaka kin kit kaualap. Kit lao maseldar, irail ari kidang pon sop o at kapinwar kasampwal.
Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they laded us with such things as were necessary.
11 A murin saunipong silu se iang sop en Aleksandrien pot, me mimi ni dake o ni ansaun kapau, me kilel en mpor.
And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.
12 A se keredi Serakus o kairu wasa o pong sili pong.
And landing at Syracuse, we tarried there three days.
13 O sang wasa o se pidok tangatang lela dong Rekium, o manda ang air irepokedo o pong ta pong se lel ong Puteoli.
And from thence we fetched a compass, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli:
14 I wasa o se tu ong ia saulang kai, me poeki re at, sen mondi re’rail pong isi pong. Kit ari tangatang kokolang Rom.
Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome.
15 O saulang kan en wasa o lao rongadar duen kit, re ap kodo tu ong kit Apipor o Tretapern; Paulus lao diar ir ada, ap kapinga Kot o kaporopor maular.
And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage.
16 Kit lao lel Rom, kaun en saunpei ap pangalang kaun en silepa kan me salidi ko, a Paulus me saladok kotikot wasa toror, saunpei men me sinsila i.
And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself with a soldier that kept him.
17 Kadekadeo murin ran silu Paulus ap molipe pena saumas en Sus akai. Irail lao pokon penaer, a ap masani ong irail: Ri ai ko, nan sota mesued kot, me i wiadar ong aramas, de ong lamalam en sam atail akan, ari so, ngai me salidi o pakadara dong ni pa en men Rom akan sang Ierusalem.
And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
18 Irail lao kalekalelapoki ia, ap men lapwa ia dar, pwe sota dip ai, me i en kame kila.
Who, when they had examined me, would have let me go, because there was no cause of death in me.
19 A Sus oko lao palian ia, i ap dorolang Sisa, kaidin ai men mpimpäki toun sap ai.
But when the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Cæsar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation of.
20 I me i ekera komail ki pena, i en kilang komail o kasokasoi ong komail, pweki en Sus akan ar kaporopor, me i salikidi sal mata pot et.
For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see you, and to speak with you: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.
21 Irail sapeng i: Sota kisin likau, me se ale sang Iudäa duen komui, pil sota saulang amen, me kodido, me kaire kin kit o kadedeki, me dip omui mia.
And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judæa concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any harm of thee.
22 A se men ronga sang komui duen omui lamelam, pwe se ronger duen pwin wet, me re kin palian wasa karos.
But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
23 Irail ari kileledi ong i ran eu, ap pokon dong re a nan im en kairu. I ari kawewe ong irail o katitiki duen wein Kot, kapakaparok ki ong irail Iesus sang nan kapung en Moses o saukop akan, sang ni mansang lel nin sautik.
And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.
24 Akai irail me kamelele a padak a akai so.
And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.
25 Irail ari sota minimin pena nan pung arail, re ap pur pasang ni en Paulus a katitiki masan pot et: Melel, saukop Iesaia kopadar ren Ngen saraui ong sam atail akan.
And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Isaiah the prophet unto our fathers,
26 Masani: Ko wong ren aramas pukat indada: Komail kin rong ap so lelapok ki o ngingar, ap sota dedeki.
Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:
27 Pwe mongiong en aramas pukat suedalar, o salong arail ponlar, o mas arail mair penaer, pwe re de ngar kida wasa mas ar, o rong kida wasa salong arail, o asaki nan mongiong arail o sapaledo, o I en kakele ir ada.
For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
28 Komail ari en asa, me maur wot sang Kot mueidalang men liki kan o re pil pan peiki ong.
Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.
29 I lao masanier mepukat, Sus oko ap ko pasang o kapakaparok nan pung ar kaualap.
And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
30 A Paulus kotikot nan im eu, me a kin isesa par riau, o kasamo karos, me ko dong i,
And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him,
31 Kaweweda wein Kot o aima padapadaki duen Kaun Iesus Kristus pwe sota me inapwiedi.
Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.
