Acts 13
1 Àwọn wòlíì àti àwọn olùkọ́ni sì ń bẹ nínú ìjọ ti ó wà ni Antioku; Barnaba àti Simeoni tí a ń pè ni Nigeri, àti Lukiu ará Kirene, àti Manaeni (ẹni tí a tọ́ pọ̀ pẹ̀lú Herodu tetrarki) àti Saulu.
And there were certain in Antioch, in the assembly there, prophets and teachers; both Barnabas, and Simeon who is called Niger, and Lucius the Cyrenian, Manaen also — Herod the tetrarch's foster-brother — and Saul;
2 Bí wọn sì ti ń jọ́sìn fún Olúwa, tí wọ́n sì ń gbààwẹ̀, Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ wí pé, “Ẹ ya Barnaba àti Saulu sọ́tọ̀ fún mi fún iṣẹ́ ti mo ti pè wọ́n sí!”
and in their ministering to the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, 'Separate ye to me both Barnabas and Saul to the work to which I have called them,'
3 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì ti gbààwẹ̀, tí wọn sì ti gbàdúrà, wọ́n gbé ọwọ́ lé wọn, wọ́n sì rán wọn lọ.
then having fasted, and having prayed, and having laid the hands on them, they sent [them] away.

These, indeed, then, having been sent forth by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia, thence also they sailed to Cyprus,
5 Nígbà ti wọ́n sì wà ni Salami, wọ́n ń wàásù ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run ní Sinagọgu àwọn Júù. Johanu náà sì wà pẹ̀lú wọn láti ràn wọ́n lọ́wọ́ fún ìránṣẹ́ wọn.
and having come unto Salamis, they declared the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews, and they had also John [as] a ministrant;
6 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì la gbogbo erékùṣù já dé Pafosi, wọ́n rí ọkùnrin oṣó àti wòlíì èké kan ti i ṣe Júù, orúkọ ẹni ti ó ń jẹ́ Bar-Jesu.
and having gone through the island unto Paphos, they found a certain magian, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name [is] Bar-Jesus;
7 Ó wà lọ́dọ̀ Segiu Paulusi baálẹ̀ ìlú náà tí í ṣe amòye ènìyàn. Òun náà ni ó ránṣẹ́ pe Barnaba àti Saulu, nítorí tí ó fẹ́ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run.
who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man; this one having called for Barnabas and Saul, did desire to hear the word of God,
8 Ṣùgbọ́n Elimu oṣó (nítorí bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìtumọ̀ orúkọ rẹ̀) takò wọ́n, ó ń fẹ́ pa baálẹ̀ ni ọkàn dà kúrò ni ìgbàgbọ́.
and there withstood them Elymas the magian — for so is his name interpreted — seeking to pervert the proconsul from the faith.
9 Ṣùgbọ́n Saulu ti a ń pè ni Paulu, ó kún fún Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́, ó sì tẹjúmọ́ Elimu, ó sì wí pé,
And Saul — who also [is] Paul — having been filled with the Holy Spirit, and having looked stedfastly on him,
10 “Ìwọ ti ó kún fún àrékérekè gbogbo, àti fún ìwà ìkà gbogbo, ìwọ ọmọ èṣù, ìwọ ọ̀tá ohun gbogbo, ìwọ kì yóò ha dẹ́kun láti máa yí ọ̀nà òtítọ́ Olúwa po?
said, 'O full of all guile, and all profligacy, son of a devil, enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease perverting the right ways of the Lord?
11 Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí wò ó, ọwọ́ Olúwa ń bẹ lára rẹ̀, ìwọ ó sì fọjú ìwọ kì yóò rí oòrùn ní sá à kan!” Lójúkan náà, ìkùùkuu àti òkùnkùn sí bò ó; ó sì ń wá ènìyàn kiri láti fa òun lọ́wọ́ lọ.
and now, lo, a hand of the Lord [is] upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season;' and presently there fell upon him a mist and darkness, and he, going about, was seeking some to lead [him] by the hand;
12 Nígbà tí baálẹ̀ rí ohun tí ó ṣe, ó gbàgbọ́, ẹnu sì yà á sì ẹ̀kọ́ Olúwa.
then the proconsul having seen what hath come to pass, did believe, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.
13 Nígbà tí Paulu àti àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ si ṣíkọ̀ ni Pafosi wọ́n wá sí Perga ni Pamfilia: Johanu sì fi wọ́n sílẹ̀, ó sì padà lọ sí Jerusalẹmu.
And those about Paul having set sail from Paphos, came to Perga of Pamphylia, and John having departed from them, did turn back to Jerusalem,
14 Nígbà ti wọ́n sì là Perga kọjá, wọ́n wá sí Pisidia ní Antioku. Wọ́n sì wọ inú Sinagọgu ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi, wọ́n sì jókòó.
and they having gone through from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia, and having gone into the synagogue on the sabbath-day, they sat down,
15 Lẹ́yìn kíka ìwé òfin àti ìwé àwọn wòlíì, àwọn olórí Sinagọgu ránṣẹ́ sí wọn, pé, “Ará, bí ẹ̀yin bá ni ọ̀rọ̀ ìyànjú kan fún àwọn ènìyàn, ẹ sọ ọ́!”
and after the reading of the law and of the prophets, the chief men of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, 'Men, brethren, if there be a word in you of exhortation unto the people — say on.'
16 Paulu sì dìde dúró, ó sì juwọ́ sí wọn, ó ní, “Ẹ̀yin Israẹli, àti ẹ̀yin ti ó bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run, ẹ fi etí sílẹ̀ sí mi!
And Paul having risen, and having beckoned with the hand, said, 'Men, Israelites, and those fearing God, hearken:
17 Ọlọ́run àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli yìí yan àwọn baba wa, ó sì gbé àwọn ènìyàn náà lékè, nígbà tí wọ́n ṣe àtìpó ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, pẹ̀lú agbára ńlá ni ó sì fi mú wọn jáde kúrò nínú rẹ̀,
the God of this people Israel did choose our fathers, and the people He did exalt in their sojourning in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm did He bring them out of it;
18 ní ìwọ̀n ìgbà ogójì ọdún ni ó fi mú sùúrù fún ìwà wọn ní ijù,
and about a period of forty years He did suffer their manners in the wilderness,
19 nígbà tí ó sì ti run orílẹ̀-èdè méje ni ilẹ̀ Kenaani, ó sì fi ilẹ̀ wọn fún àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ ni ìní.
and having destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, He did divide by lot to them their land.
20 Gbogbo èyí sì ṣẹlẹ̀ fún ìwọ̀n àádọ́ta lé ní irinwó ọdún. “Lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni Ọlọ́run fi onídàájọ́ fún wọn, títí ó fi di ìgbà Samuẹli wòlíì.
'And after these things, about four hundred and fifty years, He gave judges — till Samuel the prophet;
21 Lẹ́yìn náà ni wọ́n sì béèrè ọba; Ọlọ́run sì fún wọn ní Saulu ọmọ Kiṣi, ọkùnrin kan nínú ẹ̀yà Benjamini, fún ogójì ọdún.
and thereafter they asked for a king, and God did give to them Saul, son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years;
22 Nígbà ti ó sì mú Saulu kúrò, ó gbé Dafidi dìde ní ọba fún wọn, ẹni tí ó sì jẹ́rìí rẹ̀ pé, ‘Mo rí Dafidi ọmọ Jese ẹni bí ọkàn mi, ti yóò ṣe gbogbo ìfẹ́ mi.’
and having removed him, He did raise up to them David for king, to whom also having testified, he said, I found David, the [son] of Jesse, a man according to My heart, who shall do all My will.
23 “Láti inú irú-ọmọ ọkùnrin yìí ni Ọlọ́run ti gbé Jesu Olùgbàlà dìde fún Israẹli gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlérí.
'Of this one's seed God, according to promise, did raise to Israel a Saviour — Jesus,
24 Ṣáájú wíwá Jesu ni Johanu ti wàásù bamitiisi ìrònúpìwàdà fún gbogbo ènìyàn Israẹli.
John having first preached, before his coming, a baptism of reformation to all the people of Israel;
25 Bí Johanu sì ti ńlá ipa tirẹ̀ já, ó ni, ‘Ta ni ẹ̀yin ṣe bí èmi jẹ́? Èmi kì í ṣe òun. Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ kíyèsi í, ẹnìkan ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn mi, bàtà ẹsẹ̀ ẹni tí èmi kò tó tú.’
and as John was fulfilling the course, he said, Whom me do ye suppose to be? I am not [he], but, lo, he doth come after me, of whom I am not worthy to loose the sandal of [his] feet.
26 “Ará, ẹ̀yin ọmọ ìran Abrahamu, àti ẹ̀yin ti ó bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run, àwa ni a rán ọ̀rọ̀ ìgbàlà yìí sí.
'Men, brethren, sons of the race of Abraham, and those among you fearing God, to you was the word of this salvation sent,
27 Nítorí àwọn tí ń gbé Jerusalẹmu, àti àwọn olórí wọn, nítorí tiwọn kò mọ̀ Jesu, tí wọn kò sì ní òye ọ̀rọ̀ àwọn wòlíì, tí a ń kà ní ọjọọjọ́ ìsinmi fún wọn, kò yé wọn, wọ́n mú ọ̀rọ̀ àwọn wòlíì yìí ṣẹ nípa dídá a lẹ́bi.
for those dwelling in Jerusalem, and their chiefs, this one not having known, also the voices of the prophets, which every sabbath are being read — having judged [him] — did fulfil,
28 Àti bí wọn kò tilẹ̀ ti rí ọ̀ràn ikú sí i, síbẹ̀ wọn rọ Pilatu láti pa á.
and no cause of death having found, they did ask of Pilate that he should be slain,

and when they did complete all the things written about him, having taken [him] down from the tree, they laid him in a tomb;
30 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run jí i dìde kúrò nínú òkú,
and God did raise him out of the dead,
31 o sì farahàn lọ́jọ́ púpọ̀ fún àwọn tí ó bá a gòkè láti Galili wá sí Jerusalẹmu, àwọn tí í ṣe ẹlẹ́rìí rẹ̀ nísinsin yìí fún àwọn ènìyàn.
and he was seen for many days of those who did come up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.
32 “Àwa sì mú ìyìnrere wá fún yín pé, ìlérí èyí tí Ọlọ́run ti ṣe fún àwọn baba wa,
'And we to you do proclaim good news — that the promise made unto the fathers,
33 èyí ni Ọlọ́run ti mú ṣẹ fún àwa ọmọ wọn, nípa gbígbé Jesu dìde, bí a sì ti kọ̀wé rẹ̀ nínú Saamu kejì pé, “‘Ìwọ ni Ọmọ mi; lónìí ni mo bí ọ.’
God hath in full completed this to us their children, having raised up Jesus, as also in the second Psalm it hath been written, My Son thou art — I to-day have begotten thee.
34 Àti ni tí pé Ọlọ́run jí i dìde kúrò nínú òkú, ẹni tí kì yóò tún padà sí ìbàjẹ́ mọ́, ó wí báyìí pé: “‘Èmi ó fún yín ní ọ̀rẹ́ mímọ́ Dafidi, tí ó dájú.’
'And that He did raise him up out of the dead, no more to return to corruption, he hath said thus — I will give to you the faithful kindnesses of David;
35 Nítorí ó sì wí nínú Saamu mìíràn pẹ̀lú pé, “‘Ìwọ kí yóò jẹ́ kí Ẹni Mímọ́ rẹ rí ìdíbàjẹ́.’
wherefore also in another [place] he saith, Thou shalt not give Thy kind One to see corruption,
36 “Nítorí lẹ́yìn ìgbà ti Dafidi ti sin ìran rẹ tan nípa ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run, ó sùn, a sì tẹ́ ẹ ti àwọn baba rẹ̀, ara rẹ̀ sì rí ìdíbàjẹ́.
for David, indeed, his own generation having served by the will of God, did fall asleep, and was added unto his fathers, and saw corruption,
37 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí Ọlọ́run jí dìde kò rí ìdíbàjẹ́.
but he whom God did raise up, did not see corruption.
38 “Ǹjẹ́ kí ó yé yín, ará pé nípasẹ̀ Jesu yìí ni a ń wàásù ìdáríjì ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ fún yín.
'Let it therefore be known to you, men, brethren, that through this one to you is the forgiveness of sins declared,
39 Nípa rẹ̀ ni a ń dá olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó gbàgbọ́ láre kúrò nínú ohun gbogbo, tí a kò lè dá yín láre rẹ̀ nínú òfin Mose.
and from all things from which ye were not able in the law of Moses to be declared righteous, in this one every one who is believing is declared righteous;
40 Nítorí náà, ẹ kíyèsára, kí èyí tí a ti sọ nínú ìwé àwọn wòlíì má ṣe dé bá yín pé:
see, therefore, it may not come upon you that hath been spoken in the prophets:

See, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish, because a work I — I do work in your days, a work in which ye may not believe, though any one may declare [it] to you.'
42 Bí Paulu àti Barnaba sì ti ń jáde láti inú Sinagọgu, wọ́n bẹ̀bẹ̀ pé kí a sọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí sí i fún wọn lọ́jọ́ ìsinmi tí ń bọ̀.
And having gone forth out of the synagogue of the Jews, the nations were calling upon [them] that on the next sabbath these sayings may be spoken to them,
43 Nígbà tí wọn sì jáde nínú Sinagọgu, ọ̀pọ̀ nínú àwọn Júù àti nínú àwọn olùfọkànsìn aláwọ̀ṣe Júù tẹ̀lé Paulu àti Barnaba, àwọn ẹni tí ó bá wọn sọ̀rọ̀ tí wọ́n sì rọ̀ wọ́n láti dúró nínú oore-ọ̀fẹ́ Ọlọ́run.
and the synagogue having been dismissed, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes did follow Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking to them, were persuading them to remain in the grace of God.
44 Ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi kejì, gbogbo ìlú sí fẹ́rẹ̀ péjọ tan láti gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.
And on the coming sabbath, almost all the city was gathered together to hear the word of God,

and the Jews having seen the multitudes, were filled with zeal, and did contradict the things spoken by Paul — contradicting and speaking evil.
46 Paulu àti Barnaba sì dá wọn lóhùn láìbẹ̀rù pé, “Ẹ̀yin ni ó tọ́ sí pé ki a kọ́kọ́ sọ ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run fún yín, ṣùgbọ́n bí ẹ̀yin ti ta á nù, tí ẹ sì ka ara yín sí aláìyẹ fún ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun, wò ó, àwa yípadà sọ́dọ̀ àwọn aláìkọlà. (aiōnios g166)
And speaking boldly, Paul and Barnabas said, 'To you it was necessary that first the word of God be spoken, and seeing ye do thrust it away, and do not judge yourselves worthy of the life age-during, lo, we do turn to the nations; (aiōnios g166)
47 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa ṣa ti pàṣẹ fún wa pé: “‘Mo ti gbé ọ kalẹ̀ láti tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ fún àwọn aláìkọlà, kí ìwọ lè mú ìgbàlà wá títí dé òpin ayé.’”
for so hath the Lord commanded us: I have set thee for a light of nations — for thy being for salvation unto the end of the earth.'
48 Nígbà tí àwọn aláìkọlà sì gbọ́ èyí, wọ́n sì yín ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run lógo: gbogbo àwọn tí a yàn sí ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun sì gbàgbọ́. (aiōnios g166)
And the nations hearing were glad, and were glorifying the word of the Lord, and did believe — as many as were appointed to life age-during; (aiōnios g166)
49 A sí tan ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ká gbogbo agbègbè náà.
and the word of the Lord was spread abroad through all the region.

And the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the first men of the city, and did raise persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and did put them out from their borders;
51 Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n gbọn eruku ẹsẹ̀ wọn sí wọn, wọn sì wá sí Ikoniomu.
and they having shaken off the dust of their feet against them, came to Iconium,
52 Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn si kún fún ayọ̀ àti fún Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́.
and the disciples were filled with joy and the Holy Spirit.
