1 Guero arriua cedin Derbera eta Lystrara: eta huná, discipulubat cén han Timotheo deitzen cenic, emazte fidel baten seme, baina, aita Grec-baten.
Paul went first to Derbe, and then on to Lystra, where he met a believer by the name of Timothy. He was the son of a Jewish Christian mother, and his father was Greek.
2 Huni testimoniage on ekarten ceraucaten Lystran eta Iconion ciraden anayéc.
The brothers at Lystra and Iconium spoke well of him.
3 Haur nahi vkan du Paulec harequin ioan ledin, eta harturic circoncidi ceçan hura leku hetan ciraden Iuduacgatic: ecen baçaquiten guciéc haren aita nola Grec cen.
Paul wanted Timothy to travel with him, so he circumcised him because the Jews in the area all knew that Timothy's father was Greek.
4 Eta hirietan iragaiten ciradela iracasten cituzten hetangoac Ierusalemen ciraden Apostoluéz eta Ancianoéz eguin içan ciraden ordenancén beguiratzen.
As they went through the different towns they gave them the requirements the apostles and elders in Jerusalem had said should be observed.
5 Bada Eliçác fedean confirmatzen ciraden, eta contua egun guciaz emendatzen cen.
The churches were strengthened in their trust in the Lord and every day their numbers increased.
6 Guero iraganic Phrygia eta Galatiaco comarcá, debetatu içan ciraden Spiritu sainduaz hitzaren Asian predicatzetic:
They traveled through the districts of Phrygia and Galatia, since the Holy Spirit prevented them from going to the province of Asia to speak the word.
7 Ethorri ciradenean Mysiara, enseyatzen ciraden Bithiniara ioaiten: baina etziecén permetti Spirituac.
When they arrived at the border of Mysia they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not allow them to enter.
8 Baina Mysia iraganic iauts citecen Troasera.
So they passed by Mysia and went down to Troas.
9 Eta visionebat gauaz aguer cequión Pauli, baitzen hunela, Macedoniaco guiçon-bat presenta cedin haren aitzinean othoitz eguiten ceraucala eta erraiten, Iragan adi Macedoniarat eta aiuta gaitzac.
There Paul saw in vision during the night a man from Macedonia standing up, pleading with him, “Please come over to Macedonia and help us!”
10 Eta visionea ikussi vkan çuenean, bertan enseya guentecen Macedoniara ioaiten, seguratzen guenela ecen Iaunac deithu guentuela hæy euangelizatzera.
After Paul saw this vision, we immediately made arrangements to go to Macedonia, since we concluded that God had called us to share the good news with them.
11 Partituric bada Troastic, chuchen ethor guentecen Samothracera, eta biharamunean Neapolisera.
We set sail from Troas and made straight for Samothrace. The next day we went on to Neapolis,
12 Eta handic Philipposera, cein baita Macedonia quoartereco lehen hiria, eta da colonia. Eta egon guentecen hiri hartan cembatrebeit egun
and from there to Philippi, the most important town in Macedonia, and also a Roman colony. We stayed in this city for several days.
13 Eta Sabbath egunean ilki guentecen hiritic campora fluuio bazterrera, non içaten ohi baitzén othoitzá: eta iarriric minça guenquinztén hara bildu içan ciraden emaztey.
On the Sabbath day we went out of the town gates down to the riverside where we thought people would come to pray. We sat down and talked with the women that had gathered there.
14 Eta Lydia deitzen cen Thiatira hirico emazte escarlata saltzale Iaincoa cerbitzatzen çuen batec ençun guençan: ceinen bihotza Iaunac irequi baitzeçan, Paulez erraiten ciraden gaucén gogoatzeco:
One of them was called Lydia, who sold purple cloth from the town of Thyatira. She worshiped God, and she listened to us. The Lord opened her mind to what Paul was saying, and she accepted what he told her.
15 Eta batheyatu içan cenean bera eta haren familia, othoitz ceguigun, cioela, Baldin estimatu baduçue Iaunagana fidel naicela, sarthuric ene etchean, çaudete. Eta bortcha guençan.
After she and all her household were baptized, she pleaded with us, “If you really think that I'm truly committed to the Lord, then come and stay at my house.” She kept on insisting until we agreed!
16 Eta guertha cedin gu othoitzara guendoacela, nescato Pythonen spiritua çuembat aitzinera ethor baitzequigun: ceinec irabaci handia emaiten baitzerauen bere nabussiey, asmatzez.
One day when we were going down to the place of prayer we met a slave girl possessed by an evil spirit. She earned her masters a great deal of money by fortune-telling.
17 Haur Pauli eta guri iarreiquiric, oihuz cegoen, cioela, Guiçon hauc Iainco subiranoaren cerbitzari dirade, ceinéc saluamenduco bidea denuntiatzen baitraucute.
This girl followed Paul and the rest of us around, shouting, “These men are the servants of Almighty God. They are telling you how to be saved!”
18 Eta haur eguin ceçan anhitz egunez: baina gaitzituric Paulec, eta itzuliric erran cieçón spirituari, Manatzen aut Iesus Christen icenaren partez horrenganic ilki adin. Eta ilki cedin ordu berean.
She went on doing this for several days. This bothered Paul so he turned around and told the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to leave her!” The spirit immediately left her.
19 Orduan haren nabussiéc çacussatenean ecen hayén irabaci sperancá galdu cela, hatzamanic Paul eta Silas, eraman citzaten merkatuco plaçara Magistratuetara.
But when her masters saw they had lost their means of making money, they grabbed hold of Paul and Silas and dragged them before the authorities at the marketplace.
20 Eta hec presentaturic Gobernadorey, erran ceçaten, Gende hauc trublatzen duté gure hiria Iudu diradelaric:
They brought them in front of the magistrates, and accused them: “These Jewish men are causing a great disturbance in our town,” they said.
21 Eta denuntiatzen dituzté recebi ez beguira ditzagun sori eztiraden ordenançác, ikussiric ecen Romano garela.
“They're advocating things that are illegal for us as Romans to accept or to practice.”
22 Eta oldar cedin communa hayén contra: eta Gobernadoréc hayén arropác çathituric mana ceçaten, açota litecen.
The crowd joined together in an attack on them. The magistrates tore off Paul and Silas' clothes, and ordered them beaten with rods.
23 Eta anhitz çauri eguin cerauecenean eçar citzaten presoindeguian, manamendu eguinic geolerari, segurqui hec beguira litzan:
After giving them a severe beating, they threw them into prison, ordering the jailer to keep them locked up.
24 Ceinec halaco manamendua harturic eçar baitzitzan presoindegui çolán, eta hayén oinác hers citzan cepoaz.
The jailer followed his orders. He threw Paul and Silas into the inner cell and shackled their feet in the stocks.
25 Eta gauaren erdian Paulec eta Silasec othoizten eta laudatzen çuten Iaincoa: eta ençuten cituzten estecaturic ceudenéc.
Around midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing praises to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.
26 Eta subitoqui lur ikaratze handibat eguin cedin, hala non iharros baitzitecen presoindegui fundamentac: eta bertan irequi citecen bortha guciac, eta gucién estecailluac lacha citecen.
Suddenly a tremendous earthquake shook the foundations of the prison. Immediately all the doors flew open and everyone's chains fell off.
27 Orduan iratzarturic geolerac çacusquianean presoindegui borthác irequiac, ezpatá idoquiric bere buruä hil nahi çuen, vstez presoneréc ihes eguin çutén:
The jailer woke up and saw the doors of the prison wide open. He drew his sword and was about to kill himself, thinking that the prisoners had escaped.
28 Baina Paulec oihu eguin ceçan ocengui, cioela, Eztaguioala deus minic eure buruäri: ecen guciac hemen gaituc.
But Paul shouted out, “Don't hurt yourself—we're all still here!”
29 Orduan hura argui galdeguinic oldar cedin barnera, eta ikara çabilala egotz ceçan bere buruä Paulen eta Silasen oinetara.
The jailer asked for lights to be brought and rushed in. Shaking with fear he fell down before Paul and Silas.
30 Eta hec campora idoquiric dio, Iaunác, cer eguin behar dut saluatu içateco?
He escorted them out and asked them, “Sirs, what do I have to do so I can be saved?”
31 Eta hec erran cieçoten, Sinhets eçac Iesus Christ Iauna baithan eta saluaturen aiz hi eta hire etchea.
“Trust in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your whole household,” they replied.
32 Eta minça cequizquión Iaincoaren hitzaz hari, eta haren etchean ciraden guciey.
Then they shared the word of the Lord with him and everyone who lived in his house.
33 Eta harc hec harturic gauaren ordu hartan berean ikuz cietzén çauriac: eta batheya cedin hura eta harenac guciac bertan.
Even though it was late at night he bathed their wounds, and he was baptized right away, along with all his family.
34 Eta bere etchera eramanic, mahaina eçar ciecén: eta aleguera cedin, ceren bere etche guciarequin sinhetsi vkan baitzuen Iaincoa baithan.
He took them home and had a meal prepared for them. The jailer and his whole family were full of joy because they trusted in God.
35 Eta eguna ethorri içan cenean Gobernadoréc igor citzaten sargeantac, erran leçaten, Eyec congit guiçon horiey.
Early the next day the magistrate sent officials to the jailer, telling him, “Release those men.”
36 Orduan geolerac conta cietzon hitz hauc Pauli, cioela, Igorri dié Gobernadoréc erraitera, congit eman daquiçuen: orain beraz ilkiric çoazte baquerequin.
The jailer told Paul, “The magistrates have sent word to release you. So you can leave, and go in peace.”
37 Baina Paulec erran ciecén, Publicoqui açotatu gaituzten ondoan, iugemendu formaric gabe, Romano garelaric, egotzi vkan gaituzte presoindeguira: eta orain ichilic campora egoizten gaituzte? ez balimba: baina beréc ethorriric idoqui gaitzate.
But Paul told them, “They publicly beat us without a trial—and yet we're Roman citizens! Then they threw us in prison. Now they want to quietly let us go? No, they should come themselves and release us!”
38 Eta repporta cietzén sergeantéc Gobernadorey hitz hauc: eta beldur citecen, ençunic ecen Romano ciradela.
The officials went back and reported this to the magistrates. When they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens they were really worried,
39 Eta ethorriric othoitz citzaten, eta idoquiric supplica cequiztén ilki litecen hiritic.
and went to apologize to them. They escorted them out and begged them to leave town.
40 Orduan ilkiric presoindeguitic sar citecen Lydia baithan: eta ikussiric anayeac, consola citzaten hec, eta parti citecen.
So Paul and Silas left the prison and went to Lydia's house. There they met with the believers, encouraged them, and then went on their way.
