Ditiro 20
1 Mme erile mo gotlhe go fela, Paulo a laetsa gore barutwa ba ye go bidiwa, a ba rerela molaetsa wa go ba sadisa sentle, mme a ya Masedonia,
After the uproar had ceased, Paul sent for the disciples and, after encouraging them, took leave of them, and departed to go into Macedonia.
2 a tsamaya a rerela badumedi mo tseleng, mo metseng yotlhe e o neng a feta ka yone.
When he had gone through those parts, and had encouraged them with many words, he came into Greece.
3 O ne a nna mo Gerika dikgwedi di le tharo mme o ne a ipaakanyetsa go ya kwa Siria fa a lemoga leano la Bajuta la go mmolaya, jalo a ikaelela go ya kwa borwa jwa Masedonia pele.
When he had spent three months there, and a plot was made against him by Jews as he was about to set sail for Syria, he determined to return through Macedonia.
4 Banna ba le bantsinyana ba ne ba tsamaya nae, ba ya kwa Asia; e ne e le bo Sopatere wa Berea, morwa Pirilia, Arisetareko le Sekundo wa Mothesalonia, Gaio wa Moderebe le Timotheo; le Tukiko le Terofimo, ba ba neng ba boela kwa magaeng a bone kwa Asia,
He was accompanied by Sopater son of Pyrrhus of Beroea; Aristarchus and Secundus of the Thessalonians; Gaius of Derbe; Timothy; and Tychicus and Trophimus of Asia.
5 mme ba ne ba tsamaetse pele ebile ba ne ba re letetse kwa Teroase.
But these had gone ahead, and were waiting for us at Troas.
6 Erile fela fa modiro wa Tlolaganyo o fela, ra palama sekepe kwa Filipi, borwa jwa Gerika mme morago ga malatsi a matlhano ra goroga mo Teroase, kwa re neng ra nna teng beke.
We sailed away from Philipus after the days of Unleavened Bread, and came to them at Troas in five days, where we stayed seven days.
7 Mme ka Sontaga ra phuthega ra a ja selalelo, Paulo a rera. Mme ka a ne a tsamaya letsatsi le le latelang, o ne a bua go fitlhelela bosigogare!
On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and continued his speech until midnight.
8 Ntlwana e e kwa godimo e re neng re phuthaganetse mo go yone e ne e na le dipone di le dintsi tse di tshubilweng.
There were many lights in the upper chamber where we were gathered together.
9 Mme erile Paulo a ntse a tsweletse a bua, lekau lengwe le le neng le bidiwa Eutiko, a nnetse fa fensetereng, a thulamela mme a wa a tswa kwa ntlwaneng ya boraro e e kwa godimo a swa.
A certain young man named Eutychus sat in the window, weighed down with deep sleep. As Paul spoke still longer, being weighed down by his sleep, he fell down from the third story, and was taken up dead.
10 Paulo o ne a tswela kwa ntle mme a mo tsaya ka diatla a re, “Se tshwenyegeng, o siame fela!” Mme ka boammaaruri o ne a siame! Mme ga nna boitumelo jwa kgakgamalo jang mo bathong! Botlhe ba boela kwa ntlwaneng e e kwa godimo mme ba a ja selalelo sa Morena mmogo; Paulo a rera gape thero e telele go fitlhelela phakela fa a ba tlogela lwa bofelo!
Paul went down, and fell upon him, and embracing him said, "Do not be troubled, for his life is in him."
When he had gone up, and had broken bread, and eaten, and had talked with them a long while, even until break of day, he departed.
They brought the boy in alive, and were greatly comforted.
13 Paulo o ne a tsamaya ka dinao go ya kwa Asoso, mme rona re ne ra tsamaela pele ka sekepe.
But we who went ahead to the ship set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there, for he had so arranged, intending himself to go by land.
14 O ne a re fitlhela teng kwa Asoso mme ra tsena mo sekepeng rotlhe ra ya Mitilene;
When he met us at Assos, we took him aboard, and came to Mitylene.
15 mme ka letsatsi le le latelang ra feta Kioso; le le latelang ra tsena mo Samosa; mme morago ga letsatsi leo ra goroga mo Mileto.
Sailing from there, we came the following day opposite Chios. The next day we landed at Samos, and the day after we came to Miletus.
16 Paulo o ne a feditse mogopolo gore ga a kake a ema mo Efeso ka nako e, gonne o ne a itlhaganeletse go tsena kwa Jerusalema, gore fa go kgonega, a ye go kopanela modiro wa Pentekosete le bone.
For Paul had determined to sail past Ephesus, that he might not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hastening, if it were possible for him, to be in Urishlim on the day of Pentecost.
17 Mme erile fa re goroga kwa Mileto, a romela molaetsa kwa bagolwaneng ba phuthego kwa Efeso a ba kopa gore ba ye go kopana nae kwa mokorong.
From Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called to himself the elders of the church.
18 Mme erile ba goroga, a ba raya a re, “Lona banna ke lona lo itse gore go simologa ka letsatsi le ke gorogileng ka lone mo Asia go fitlhelela gompieno,
When they had come to him, he said to them, "You yourselves know, from the first day that I set foot in Asia, how I was with you all the time,
19 ke dirile tiro ya Morena ka boikokobetso, ee, le ka dikeledi, mme ke kopane le mathata a a boitshegang a maano a Bajuta a go mpolaya.
serving the Lord with all humility, with many tears, and with trials which happened to me by the plots of the Jews;
20 Mme ke ne ke sa etsaetsege go lo bolelela boammaaruri, mo bathong kgotsa mo magaeng a lona.
how I did not hold back from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you publicly and from house to house,
21 Ke ne ka nna le molaetsa o o tshwanang mo Bajuteng le mo go Badichaba ebong tlhokego ya gore ba sokologe mo sebeng ba ye kwa Modimong ka tumelo mo go Morena wa rona Jesu Keresete.
testifying both to Jews and to Greeks repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Yeshua.
22 “Mme jaanong ke ya Jerusalema, ke gogelwa teng ke Mowa O O Boitshepo o ke se ka keng ka o ganetsa, ke sa itse se se nkemetseng kwa pele,
And now, look, compelled by the Rukha, I am going to Urishlim, not knowing what will happen to me there;
23 fa e se fela gore Mowa O O Boitshepo o mpoleletse gore fa ke sena go tsena motse le motse kgolegelo le tshotlego di ntetetse kwa pele.
except that the Rukha d'Qudsha testifies in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions wait for me.
24 Mme botshelo ga se sepe fa ke sa bo dirise go dira tiro e ke e neetsweng ke Morena Jesu, tiro ya go bolelela ba bangwe Mafoko a a Molemo kaga lorato le kutlwelo botlhoko e kgolo ya Modimo.
But I make my life an account of nothing precious to myself, so that I may finish my race, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Yeshua, to fully testify to the Good News of the grace of God.
25 Mme jaanong ke a itse gore ga go ope wa lona mo go ba ke ba rutileng kaga Bogosi yo o tlaa mponang gape.
"And now, look, I know that you all, among whom I went about proclaiming the Kingdom, will see my face no more.
26 Mmang ke bue phatlalatsa fela ke re ga go na madi a ga ope a a tlaa lopiwang mo tlhogong ya me,
Therefore I testify to you today that I am innocent of everyone's blood,
27 gonne ga ke a ka ka boifa go lo bolelela molaetsa wa Modimo otlhe.
for I did not hold back from declaring to you the whole plan of God.
28 “Mme jaanong itlhokomeleng! Tlhomamisang gore lo otle lo bo lo dise letsomane la Modimo, ebong phuthego, e e rekolotsweng ka madi a gagwe, gonne Mowa O O Boitshepo o lo tlhomile go nna baokamedi.
Watch out for yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Rukha d'Qudsha has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which he purchased with his own blood.
29 Ke itse sentle gore morago ga ke tsamaya, go tlaa tla mo go lona baruti ba ba maaka, jaaka diphiri tse di gagolakang, tse di sa rekegeleng letsomane.
For I know that after my departure, vicious wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 Bangwe ba lona ba tlaa fetola boammaaruri gore ba salwe morago.
Men will arise from among your own selves, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.
31 Itlhokomeleng! Gakologelwang dingwaga tse tharo tse ke di ntseng le lona, tlhokomelo ya me mo go lona ka metlha yotlhe le dikeledi tsa me tse dintsi ke lo lelela.
Therefore watch, remembering that for a period of three years I did not cease to admonish everyone night and day with tears.
32 “Mme jaanong ke lo neela Modimo le mo tlhokomelong ya one le mo mafokong a one a a hakgamatsang a a kgonang go aga tumelo ya lona le go lo fa boswa jotlhe jwa ba ba itshenketsweng ke one.
Now I entrust you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build up, and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
33 “Ga ke ise ke be ke eletse madi kgotsa diaparo tse dintle,
I coveted no one's silver, or gold, or clothing.
34 lo itse gore diatla tse tsa me di diretse tse ke neng ke di tlhoka le go thusa ba ke neng ke na nabo.
You yourselves know that these hands served my necessities, and those who were with me.
35 Mme ke ne ka nna sekao sa nako tsotlhe mo go lona mo go thuseng bahumanegi; gonne ke ne ka gakologelwa mafoko a ga Morena Jesu a a reng; ‘Go lesego go aba go na le go amogela.’”
In all things I gave you an example, that so laboring you ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Yeshua, that he himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"
36 Erile fa a sena go bua a khubama a rapela nabo,
When he had spoken these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
37 mme ba lelela kwa godimo fa ba mo tlamparela ba mo tsamaisa sentle,
They all wept a lot, and fell on Paul's neck and kissed him,
38 ba utlwa botlhoko go feta ka gore o ne a re ga a kitla a tlhola a tla gape. Hong ba tsamaya nae go ya kwa sekepeng.
sorrowing most of all because of the word which he had spoken, that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship.
