Said—O full of all guile, and all recklessness! Son of an adversary! Enemy of all righteousness!—Wilt thou not cease to pervert the straight ways of the Lord?

Now, therefore, lo! the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun, until a fitting time. And, instantly, there fell upon him a mist and darkness; and, going about, he was seeking such as might lead him by the hand.
12 Râiôt han ahong mu lehan khoimo atung hah, a iem zoia; Pumapa minchuna chungroi hah a kamâm oka.
Then, the proconsul, seeing what had happened, believed, being amazed at the teaching of the Lord.

And Paul, standing up, and making a sign with his hand, said—Ye men of Israel! and such as revere God! hearken: —
17 Israelngei Pathien mingei ei richibulngei a lei thanga, Egypt khuolmingei anghan an om lâiin nam lienpân a sina, a ranak lienin Egypt renga a kai suo ngeia,
The God of this people Israel, chose our fathers, and, the people, he exalted, by their sojourn in the land of Egypt, —and, with a high arm, brought he them out of it;

And, for the time of about forty years, bare with their manners in the desert;
19 Canaan rama nam sari an inmanga, a mingei a ram puma a minchang zoi.
And, overthrowing seven nations in the land of Canaan, gave them their land as an inheritance—about four hundred and fifty years.

And, setting him aside, raised up, David, unto them for king, —of whom he also said, bearing witness—I have found David, the son of Jesse, —[a man] according to my heart, who will do all my will.
23 Mahi Jisua, David richisuonpârngei lâi renga han Israel mingei Sanminringpu'n ai sin ani, Pathien'n a lei khâm anghan.
From this man’s seed, hath God, according to promise, brought unto Israel, a saviour—Jesus:
24 Jisua'n a sin a phut mân han, Israel mingei an sietnangei renga an insîra baptisma an changna rangin John'n thurchi a misîr pe ngei ngâia.
John, beforehand proclaiming, before the face of his coming in, an immersion of repentance, unto all the people of Israel.

And, as John was fulfilling his course, he was saying—Whom are ye supposing that I am? I, am not he! But lo! there cometh, after me, one of whom I am not worthy, the sandals of his feet, to loosen.
26 “Abraham richisuonpârngei, ki richibulngei le Jentailngei murdi Pathien biek ngei, hi Sanminringna chong hih ei kôm a juongtîr ani.

For, they who were dwelling in Jerusalem, and their rulers, not recognising him, have, by judging him, fulfilled, the very voices of the prophets which every sabbath are being read;
28 Thina rang rak dôr a chunga ite abi an man no khomin that rangin Pilat kôm an ngêna.
And, though no single cause of death they found, yet claimed they of Pilate that he should be slain.

And, when they had finished all those things which, concerning him, had been written, taking him down from the tree, they put him in a tomb.
30 Aniatachu, Pathien'n thina renga a kaithoi nôk zoi,
But, God, raised him from among the dead:
31 Galilee ram renga Jerusalema ama leh munkhata lei se ngei kôm han sûn tamtak ânlâr ngâia; ha mingei hah atûna hin Israel mingei kôm ama rietpuipungei an ni.
Who appeared, during many days, unto them who had come up with him from Galilee unto Jerusalem; who, indeed, [now] are his witnesses unto the people.

We, therefore, unto you, bring the good news, as to the promise which, unto our fathers, was made, —
That God hath fulfilled, the same, for our children, by raising up Jesus: as also, in the second psalm, it is written—My son, art, thou: I, this day, have begotten thee.
34 Monna mun thâna kîr nôk khâi loi rangin Pathien'n ama hah thina renga a kaithoi rang roi hi anghin a misîra; ‘Satvurna inthieng le adik David kôma kên khâm hah nang pêk ki tih,’ tiin.
And, in that he raised him from among the dead, no more destined to return unto corruption, on this wise hath he spoken—I will give unto you the faithful lovingkindnesses of David.
35 Masikin, minpâkna la dangin, ‘Ni mi inthieng chu thâna mon rangin phal no ti nih,’ ati sa.
Wherefore also, in a different [place], he saith—Thou wilt not give thy man of lovingkindness to see corruption.
36 David'n ama zora kai chu Pathien lungdo a sina, masuole chu a thia, a richibulngei leh an phûma, a takpum hah thâna amon zoi.
For, David, indeed, unto his own generation having done service, by the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was added unto fathers, and saw corruption;
37 Pathien'n thina renga a kaithoipu ha chu mon mak.
But, he whom God hath raised, did not see corruption.
38 Ki Israel sûngsuokngei, mahih nin riet rangin kin nuom, Jisua sikin ani sietnangei ngâidamna chong nin kôma misîrin aom; male tukhom ama iem kai chu Moses balamin a mojôk theiloi sietnangei murdi renga an jôk zoia.
Be it known unto you, therefore, brethren, —that, through this man, unto you, remission of sins is declared;
And, from all things from which ye could not, by the law of Moses, be justified, by this man, everyone that believeth, is justified.
40 Masikin, indîn roi, dêipungei lei ti hah nin chunga tung duoi nih.
Be taking heed, therefore, lest that come upon you which hath been spoken in the prophets—
41 ‘Mumâkpungei, en ta u! kamâm aom ti ungla, thi roi! asikchu aviena sin ko tho hih, Mîn nangni ril minthâr pe khom rese ngei iem no tunui!’” ti hah a tia.
See, ye despisers, and marvel, and disappear: in that, a work, am, I, working in your days, —a work, which in nowise will ye believe, though one relate it in full unto you.

And, as they were going out, they kept on beseeching that, on the ensuing sabbath, might be spoken unto them these things.

And, when the congregation was broken up, there followed many of the Jews, and of the devout proselytes, with Paul and Barnabas; who, indeed, in speaking unto them, went on persuading them to abide in the favour of God.
44 Sabbathni nôka chu a khopui pumpui ti dôrin Pathien chong rangâi rangin an hong intûpa.
And, on the coming sabbath, almost all the city, was gathered together, to hear the word of God.
45 Judangei han mipuingei an mûn chu an narsa oka, Paul thurchi misîr hah an makhala, an misîr minpôta.
But, the Jews, seeing, the multitudes, were filled with jealousy, —and began speaking against the things which, by Paul, were being spoken, defaming them.
46 Aniatachu Paul le Barnabas han hâi uolin an misîra, “Pathien chong hi nin kôma misîr masa rang piel ani; hannirese, nin henga, kumtuong ringna manpui rangin ahunin nin be loi sikin, nangni mâkin Jentailngei tieng pan kin tih. (aiōnios g166)
And Paul and Barnabas, speaking boldly, said—Unto you, was it necessary, that the word of God should first be spoken: seeing ye are thrusting it from you, and, unworthy, are judging yourselves of the age-abiding life, lo! we turn unto the nations; (aiōnios g166)
47 Mahi Pumapa chong mi pêk ani; ‘Jentailngei min vârpu'n nang ki minchang, masikin rammuol murdi an ring theina rangin ti hi,’” an tia.
For so hath the Lord commanded us—I have set thee for a light of nations, that thou mayest be for salvation unto the end of the earth.
48 Jentailngei han ha chong hah an rietin chu an râiasâna, Pumapa chong an chôiminsânga; kumtuong ringna chang ranga thang ngei kai chu iempungei an hong chang zoi. (aiōnios g166)
And they of the nations, hearing [this], began to rejoice, and to be glorifying God, and they believed—as many as had become disposed for life age-abiding. (aiōnios g166)
49 Pumapa chong hah ramhuol muntina ânzar zoia.
And the word of the Lord went on to be carried through the whole country.
50 Hannirese Khopuiliena Juda ulienngei le Pathien biek mi Jentail nupang mirit omngei an misieta; Paul le Barnabas hah an nuom an min loa, an ramhuol renga an rujûlpai zoia.
But, the Jews, urged on the devout women of the higher class, and the chief men of the city, and roused up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, —and thrust them out from their bounds.
51 Tîrtonngei han anni ngei chunga an mulung hoiloi minlangnân an kepha taka pildi an không mathâka, Iconium an pan zoi.
But they, shaking off the dust of their feet against them, came into Iconium.

And, the disciples, were filled with joy, and with Holy Spirit.
