Acts 18
1 Lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí, Paulu jáde kúrò ni Ateni lọ sí Kọrinti.
After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth.
2 Ó sì rí Júù kan tí a ń pè ní Akuila, tí a bí ni Pọntu, tí ó ti Itali dé ní lọ́ọ́lọ́ọ́, pẹ̀lú Priskilla aya rẹ̀; nítorí tí Kilaudiu pàṣẹ pé, kí gbogbo àwọn Júù jáde kúrò ní Romu. Ó sì tọ̀ wọ́n lọ láti rí wọn.
He found a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by race, who had recently come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome. He came to them,
3 Nítorí tí òun náà jẹ́ oníṣẹ̀-ọwọ́ kan náà, ó bá wọn jókòó, ó sì ń ṣiṣẹ́: nítorí àgọ́ pípa ni iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wọn.
and because he practiced the same trade, he lived with them and worked, for by trade they were tent makers.
4 Ó sì ń fi ọ̀rọ̀ wé ọ̀rọ̀ pẹ̀lú wọn nínú Sinagọgu lọ́jọjọ́ ìsinmi, ó sì ń yí àwọn Júù àti àwọn Giriki lọ́kàn padà.
He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks.
5 Nígbà tí Sila àti Timotiu sì tí Makedonia wá, ọ̀rọ̀ náà ká Paulu lára, ó ń fihàn fún àwọn Júù pé, Jesu ni Kristi náà.
But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
6 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì sàtakò rẹ̀, tí wọ́n sì sọ̀rọ̀-òdì, ó gbọ́n aṣọ rẹ̀, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ̀jẹ̀ yin ń bẹ lórí ara yin; ọrùn mi mọ́: láti ìsinsin yìí lọ, èmi yóò tọ àwọn aláìkọlà lọ.”
When they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook out his clothing and said to them, "Your blood be on your own heads. I am clean. From now on, I will go to the non-Jewish people."
7 Ó sì lọ kúrò níbẹ̀, ó wọ ilé ọkùnrin kan tí a ń pé ní Titu Justu, ẹni tí o ń sin Ọlọ́run; ilé rẹ̀ sì wà lẹ́gbẹ̀ Sinagọgu tímọ́tímọ́.
He departed there, and went into the house of a certain man named Titius Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.
8 Krisipu, olórí Sinagọgu, sì gba Olúwa gbọ́ pẹ̀lú gbogbo ilé rẹ̀, àti ọ̀pọ̀ nínú àwọn ara Kọrinti, nígbà tí wọ́n gbọ́, wọ́n gbàgbọ́, a sì bamitiisi wọn.
Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house. Many of the Corinthians, when they heard, believed and were baptized.
9 Olúwa sì sọ fún Paulu lóru ni ojúran pé, “Má bẹ̀rù, ṣá máa sọ, má sì ṣe pa ẹnu rẹ̀ mọ́.
The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, "Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent;
10 Nítorí tí èmí wà pẹ̀lú rẹ, kò sì sí ẹni tí yóò dìde sí ọ láti pa ọ lára: nítorí mo ní ènìyàn púpọ̀ ni ìlú yìí.”
for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city."
11 Ó sì jókòó níbẹ̀ ní ọdún kan àti oṣù mẹ́fà, ó ń kọ́ni ní ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run láàrín wọn.
He lived there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
12 Nígbà tí Gallioni sì jẹ baálẹ̀ Akaia, àwọn Júù fi ìfìmọ̀ṣọ̀kan dìde sí Paulu wọn sì mú un wá síwájú ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́.
But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,
13 Wọ́n wí pé, “Ọkùnrin yìí ń yí àwọn ènìyàn lọ́kàn padà, láti máa sin Ọlọ́run lòdì sí òfin.”
saying, "This one persuades people to worship God contrary to the law."
14 Nígbà tí Paulu ń fẹ́ dáhùn, Gallioni wí fún àwọn Júù pé, “Ìbá ṣe pé ọ̀ràn búburú tàbí tí jàgídíjàgan kan ni, èmi ìbá gbè yín, ẹ̀yin Júù,
But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked crime, you Jews, it would be reasonable that I should bear with you;
15 Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ti ṣe ọ̀ràn nípa ọ̀rọ̀ àti orúkọ, àti ti òfin yín ni, ki ẹ̀yin bojútó o fúnra yín; nítorí tí èmi kò fẹ́ ṣe onídàájọ́ nǹkan báwọ̀nyí.”
but if they are questions about words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves. For I do not want to be a judge of these matters."
16 Ó sì lé wọn kúrò ní ibi ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́.
He drove them from the judgment seat.
17 Gbogbo àwọn Giriki sì mú Sostene, olórí Sinagọgu, wọ́n sì lù ú níwájú ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́. Gallioni kò sì bìkítà fún nǹkan wọ̀nyí.
Then they all took hold of Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. But none of these things were of concern to Gallio.
18 Paulu sì dúró sí i níbẹ̀ lọ́jọ́ púpọ̀, nígbà tí ó sì dágbére fún àwọn arákùnrin, ó bá ọkọ̀ ojú omi lọ si Siria, àti Priskilla àti Akuila pẹ̀lú rẹ̀; ó tí fá orí rẹ̀ ni Kenkerea, nítorí tí ó ti jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́.
Paul, having stayed after this many more days, took his leave of the brothers, and sailed from there for Syria, together with Priscilla and Aquila. He shaved his head in Cenchreae, for he had a vow.
19 Ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá sí Efesu, ó sì fi wọ́n sílẹ̀ níbẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n òun tìkára rẹ̀ wọ inú Sinagọgu lọ, ó sì bá àwọn Júù fi ọ̀rọ̀ wé ọ̀rọ̀.
They came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.
20 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì bẹ̀ ẹ́ pé, kí ó bá àwọn jókòó díẹ̀ sí i, ó kọ̀.
When they asked him to stay a longer time, he declined;
21 Ṣùgbọ́n ó dágbére fún wọn, ó sì wí pé, “Èmi ó tún padà tọ̀ yín wá, bí Ọlọ́run bá fẹ́.” Ó sì lọ kúrò láti Efesu.
but taking his leave of them, and saying, "I will return again to you if God wills," he set sail from Ephesus.
22 Nígbà tí ó sì tí gúnlẹ̀ ni Kesarea, ó gòkè lọ si Jerusalẹmu láti kí ìjọ, lẹ́yìn náà ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí Antioku.
When he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the church, and went down to Antioch.
23 Nígbà tí ó sì gbé ọjọ́ díẹ̀ níbẹ̀, ó n lọ, láti káàkiri ni agbègbè Galatia àti Frigia, o ń mu àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn lọ́kàn le.
Having spent some time there, he departed, and went through the region of Galatia, and Phrygia, in order, strengthening all the disciples.
24 Júù kan sì wà tí a ń pè ni Apollo, tí a bí ni Alekisandiria, ó wá sí Efesu. Ó ní ẹ̀bùn ọ̀rọ̀ sísọ, ó sì mọ ìwé mímọ́ púpọ̀.
Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by race, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus. He was mighty in the Scriptures.
25 Ọkùnrin yìí ni a tí kọ́ ní ọ̀nà tí Olúwa; ó sì ṣe ẹni tí ó ní ìtara tí ẹ̀mí, ó ń sọ̀rọ̀ ó sì ń kọ́ni ní àwọn ohun tí i ṣe ti Jesu dáradára; kìkì bamitiisi tí Johanu ní ó mọ̀.
This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, although he knew only the baptism of John.
26 Ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí fi ìgboyà sọ̀rọ̀ ni Sinagọgu. Nígbà tí Akuila àti Priskilla gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n mú un sọ́dọ̀, wọ́n sì túbọ̀ sọ ọ̀nà Ọlọ́run fún un dájúdájú.
He began to speak boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside, and explained to him the way of God more accurately.
27 Nígbà tí ó sì ń fẹ́ kọjá lọ sì Akaia, àwọn arákùnrin gbà á ní ìyànjú, wọ́n sì kọ̀wé sí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn kí wọ́n gbà á, nígbà tí ó sì dé, ó ràn àwọn tí ó gbàgbọ́ nípasẹ̀ oore-ọ̀fẹ́ lọ́wọ́ púpọ̀.
When he had determined to pass over into Achaia, the brothers encouraged him, and wrote to the disciples to receive him. When he had come, he greatly helped those who had believed through grace;
28 Nítorí tí o sọ àsọyé fún àwọn Júù ní gbangba, ó ń fi í hàn nínú ìwé mímọ́ pé, Jesu ni Kristi.
for he powerfully refuted the Jews, publicly showing by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.
