And Saul approved of his execution. On that day a great persecution arose against the church in Jerusalem, and all the believers except the apostles were scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria.
2 Nyi alvbv mvngjwngnv kvvgonv Stipinnyi svma ritoku, ninyigvbv mvngdwk nyala kapnya toku.
Devout men carried Stephen away for burial and made great lamentation over him.
3 Vbvritola Sol gvrja nga mvyakmvchak dubv gwngtoku; naam lo vngla, hv mvngjwngnv vdwa svdarlinto, anvnyimv jvka nyiga jvka okv bunua patwk lo tumlwk nyatoku.
But Saul was ravaging the church. Entering house after house, he dragged off both men and women and put them in prison.
4 Mvngjwngnv vdwv ogolo mooku mvnwng lo vngsik karpv kudw, mooku mvnwng lo vnggola doina mingkar nyatoku.
Now those who had been scattered went around preaching the message of good news.
5 Pilip samariya dinchiyachoknv pamtv lo vngla Messiah nga nyi vdwlo japkar jitoku.
Philip went down to a city of Samaria and began proclaiming to them the Christ.
6 Ogugo Pilip mimpvdw nyipamv vngkam nyala tvvnyato, bunu ninyia tvvgap kaagap nyato okv ninyia lamrwpadubv rinama kaanya toku.
With one accord the crowds paid close attention to what Philip said as they listened to him and saw the signs he was performing.
7 Achialvbv nyi vdwgvlo alvmanv dow achialvbv kapla linya toku, achialvgo nyi dwgwngnv okv lvpiknv ponya toku.
For unclean spirits came out of many who had them, crying out with a loud voice, and many who were paralyzed or lame were healed.
8 Vkvlvgvbv ho pamtv okaku achialvbv mvngpu nyatoku.
And there was great joy in that city.
9 Nyi ako aminv Saimon vnamgo hoka dooto, hv lvko lvkobv ninyi lama hinam lokv Samaritan nyi vdwa lamrwpadubv mvto. Ho ninyi atubongv kainv akobv minsuto,
Now a man named Simon had previously practiced magic in the city and amazed the people of Samaria, declaring himself to be someone great.
10 okv pamtv gv nyi mvnwng ngv ninyia tvvkamkaakam nyato. Bunu minto, “Hv oogv Pwknvyarnv gv jwkrwv, ‘Kainv jwkrw” vla chimbwng kunam go.
From the least to the greatest, they paid close attention to him, saying, “This man is the great power of God.”
11 Bunu dinchi alvbv ninyia tvvriakariato ogulvgavbolo kvvlo gvngv lokv ninyi bunua ninyigv lama lokv lamrwpadubv mvbwng jito.
They all paid close attention to him because he had amazed them with his magical arts for a long time.
12 Vbvritola vdwlo bunu Pilip gv doin alvnv yunying Pwknvyarnv gv Karv gv lvkwng lo okv Jisu Kristo gv lvkwng lo tvvla mvngjwng tukudw, bunu mvvga jvka nyiga jvka, baptisma lanya toku.
But when they believed Philip as he preached good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
13 Saimon atubongv ka mvngjwng sutoku; okv kochingso baptisma laatoku, hv Pilip gv nvchilo doomin gvvto, okv kaakw manam lamrwpadubv kaatamritam nama kaala kaasartabo bv kaatoku.
Even Simon himself believed. After he was baptized, he kept close company with Philip and was amazed as he saw miracles and signs taking place.
14 Jerusalem lo doonv Apostol vdwv Samaria gv nyi vdwv Pwknvyarnv gv gaama laarwk supvku vla tvvpa toku, vkvlvgabv bunu Pitar nyila Jonnyi bunu gvlo vngmuto.
When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent them Peter and John.
15 Vdwlo bunu vngchi tokudw, bunu mvngjwngnv vdwa Darwknv Dowa paamu dubv vla kumtoku.
These two went down and prayed for the Samaritan believers to receive the Holy Spirit,
16 Darwknv Dowv bunu gvlo yvvnyika aatv madvto; bunu Ahtu Jisu gv amin bv baptisma laamwngto.
for the Spirit had not yet fallen upon any of them; they had only been baptized in the name of Christ Jesus.
17 Vbvrikunamv Pitar okv Jon bunyi gv laakv bunu gvlo lakpvto, okv bunu Darwknv Dowa paatoku.
Then Peter and John laid their hands on the Samaritan believers, and they received the Holy Spirit.
18 Saimon vdwlo Apostol vdwv mvngjwngnv vdwa bunugv laakv lakpvnam gola darwknv Dow jinama kaapa toku. Vkvlvgabv hv Pitar nyila Jonnyi morko jito,
When Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money,
19 okv minto, “So jwkrw sum ngaka jila bvkv, vkvlvgabv ngoogv yvvnyika laakv lakpv ridw bunu Darwknv Dowa paadubv.”
saying, “Give this power to me as well, so that whomever I lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.”
20 Vbvritola Pitar ninyia mirwksito, “No okv noogv morko ngv uyumooku bv vngnyika, no Pwknvyarnv gv amin jinam am morko lokv rvnyure vla mvngnam lvgabv.
But Peter said to him, “May yoʋr silver be destroyed with yoʋ, because yoʋ thought yoʋ could acquire the gift of God with money!
21 No ngonu gvlo ribamdakbam dubv rikuma, ogulvgavbolo noogv haapok gv mvngnamv Pwknvyarnv gvlo alvkuma.
Yoʋ have no share or portion in this matter, for yoʋr heart is not right before God.
22 Vbvrikunamv, mvngdinto, svbv noogv alvmanv mvngnama, okv Ahtunyi kumtoka hv noogv svbv mvngmur nama mvngnga jireku.
Therefore repent of this wickedness of yoʋrs, and plead with God in the hope that the intention of yoʋr heart might be forgiven yoʋ.
23 Ngo kaanamv no achialv bv kabiutari yaya nvgo okv rimur gv patwk lo tumnamgo.”
For I see that yoʋ are bitterly envious and in bondage to unrighteousness.”
24 Saimon Pitar nyila Jonnyi minto, “Ayala ngo gvbv Ahtunyi kumji labv, nonugv minam vdwsi ngo gvlo rima dubv.”
In response Simon said, “Pray to the Lord for me so that nothing you have said will happen to me.”
25 Bunu bunugv minsvrisv nga mintamro kochingbv bunu Ahtu gv doina minggo jitoku. Pitar okv Jon bunyi Jerusalem bv vngkur toku. Bunugv vngku lamtv lo bunu Alvnv Yunying nga Samaria gv nampum mvnwng lo japgo jitoku.
After Peter and John had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, preaching the good news in many villages of the Samaritans as they went.
26 Ahtu gv nyidogindung akonv pilipnyi minto, “Gudungto okv yurko yabv Jerusalem lokv Gaja vngjiku lamtv bv vngdubv.” (So lamtv si sinyingsilu vngkuma)
Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Rise and go toward the south, to the road that goes from Jerusalem down to Gaza.” (This is a desert road.)
27 Vkvlvgabv Pilip vngdu kubv rila okv vngtoku, vjak Itopian alvyachoknv nyigam hijra go Itopia dvnv gv ainmorko nga rigvyanv go, ninyigv naam takbv vnglintoku. Hv Jerusalem lo vngla Pwknvyarnvnyi kumpikula okv ninyigv yikungyira nga bakla ikula naam bv vngkur toku. Hv vbv vngdula, hv nyijwk Aijaya gv kitap nga purito.
So he rose and went. And behold, there was an Ethiopian eunuch, a court official in charge of the entire treasury of Candace, the queen of the Ethiopians. This man had come to Jerusalem to worship
and was sitting in his chariot on his way back home, reading the prophet Isaiah.
29 Darwknv Dowv Pilipnyi minto, “Yikungyira bagla vngnv, um vngchitvka okv vkvgv nvchilo vngtoka.”
The Spirit said to Philip, “Go over and join that chariot.”
30 Pilip ninyi gvlo joklwk toku okv ninyia nyijwk Aijaya gv kitap nga puri dubv tvvpato. Ninyia tvvkato, “Noogv purinam um no chinpvre?”
So Philip ran up to it and heard the man reading the prophet Isaiah. He said, “Do yoʋ understand what yoʋ are reading?”
31 Oo nyigam angv mvrwksuto, “Nyigonv mimpa mabolo ngo oguaingbv sum chindubv?” Okv hv Pilipnyi gvvchala chaatokv vla gokto okv ninyia yikungyira baknv nga lvkobv dootokv vla.
The man said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” So he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
32 Ninyigv kitap puri ridungnam angv si: “Hv svlar ako boola ila pakinam aingbv, svlarkuu gv amw peelin jvka sidu manv aingbv, hv oguguka gamchar milinma.
This is the passage of Scripture that he was reading: “Like a sheep he was led to slaughter, and like a lamb is silent before its shearer, so he did not open his mouth.
33 Ninyia nyi mangv aingbv mvto, okv jvjv nga kaajitajinv vv ninyia tvvma jitoku. Yvvka ninyigv husi lvgabv mimpa jila nyumare, ogulvgavbolo ninyigv singdung ngv nyiamooku so singnya dukubv aaduku.”
In his humiliation he was denied justice. Who will tell of his posterity? For his life was taken from the earth.”
34 Nyigam angv Pilipnyi tvvkato, “Nga mimpa labv, nyijwk angv si yvvnyi mindunv? Atubongvre vmalo ako gunyire?”
The eunuch said to Philip, “I ask yoʋ, who does the prophet say this about? About himself, or about someone else?”
35 Vbvrikunamv Pilip japrap toku; so darwknv kitap lokv puri rirapto, ninyi Jisu gv Alvnv Yunying nga hv mimpa toku.
Then Philip opened his mouth to speak, and beginning from this Scripture, he told him the good news about Jesus.
36 Bunu lamtv pvkwng bvku irilo, bunu isi meego dooku gulo aatoku, okv nyigam angv minto, “So si isi meego doopv. Nga so baptisma jilabv?”
As they were going along the road, they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “Behold, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?”
37 Pilipnyi minto, “Noogv haapok gv mvngjwng pvnvlo nam Baptisma jire.” Ninyi mirwkto, “Vv kv,” “Ngo mvngjwng do Jisu Kristo Pwknvyarnv gv Kuunyilo ngv.”
38 Ho nyigam angv goragari nga daktung moto, okv Pilip la nyigam angv bunyi isi dokubv lvkobv ito, okv Pilip ninyia Baptisma jitoku.
So he ordered the chariot to stop, and the two of them went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and Philip baptized him.
39 Vdwlo bunu isi gvngv agum lintokudw, Ahtu gv Darwknv Dow Pilipnyi lala vngro gvvtoku. Nyigam angv ninyia kaapa kumato vbvritola ninyigv vngtunglo himpu la vngtoku.
When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, but went on his way rejoicing.
40 Ajotas lo Pilip atubongv kaapa suto; hv kaisaria bv vnglintoku, okv hv lamtv lo vngyingla Alvnv yunying nga banggu mvnwnglo japkar toku.
Philip, however, found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through that region, he preached the gospel in all the towns until he came to Caesarea.
