Eginak 17
1 Guero iraganic Amphipolian eta Apollonian, ethor citecen Thessalonicara, non baitzen Iuduén synagogabat.
Now when they had passed through the cities of Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to the city of Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.
2 Eta costumatu çuen beçala Paul sar cedin hetara, eta hirur Sabbathoz disputa cedin hequin Scripturetaric.
Paul, as his custom was, went to them, and for three Sabbath days reasoned with them from the scriptures.
3 Declaratzen eta proposatzen cerauela, ecen behar içan dela Christec suffri leçan eta resuscita ledin hiletaric: eta ecen haur cela Iesus Christ cein dio, nic predicatzen baitrauçuet.
He was opening the scriptures and explaining that it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise again from the dead. He said, “This Jesus whom I proclaim to you is the Christ.”
4 Eta hetaric batzuc sinhets ceçaten, eta Paulen eta Silasen compainiaco eguin citecen, eta Iaincoa cerbitzatzen çutén Grecoetaric compainia handia, eta emazte ohoraturic ez guti.
Some of the Jews were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, including a large number of devout Greeks, and not a few of the leading women.
5 Baina bekaizteriaz mouituric Iudu rebelléc, eta harturic hara huna çabiltzan guiçon gaichto batzu, eta populua bilduric, trubla ceçaten hiria: eta Iasonen etchea iauquiric, hec populura eraman nahiz çabiltzan.
But the unbelieving Jews, being moved with jealousy, took certain wicked men from the marketplace, gathered a crowd together, and set the city in an uproar. Assaulting the house of Jason, they wanted to bring Paul and Silas out to the people.
6 Eta eriden etzituztenean, tira citzaten Iason eta anayetaric batzu hirico Gobernadoretara, oihuz ceudela. Hauc mundu gucia erauci vkan duten ondoan, huna-ere ethorri içan dirade:
But when they did not find them, they dragged Jason and certain other brothers before the officials of the city, crying, “These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also.
7 Eta Iasonec beregana recebitu vkan ditu: eta guciec Cesaren ordenancen contra eguiten dute, dioitela berce Reguebat badela, Iesus.
These men whom Jason has welcomed act against the decrees of Caesar; they say that there is another king—Jesus.”
8 Tharrita ceçaten bada populua eta hirico Gobernadoreac gauça hauc çançuzquitenean.
The crowd and the officials of the city were disturbed when they heard these things.
9 Baina fiadoregoa recebituric Iasonganic eta goiticoetaric, vtzi citzaten ioaitera.
But after the officials made Jason and the rest pay money as security, then they let them go.
That night the brothers sent Paul and Silas to Berea. When they arrived there, they went into the synagogue of the Jews.
11 Eta hauc ciraden Thessalonicaco noblenetaric, ceinéc hitza recebi baitzeçaten alegrança gucirequin, egun oroz Scripturác bilhatzen cituztela, eya gauça hauc hala liradenez.
Now these people were more noble than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with all readiness of mind, examining the scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.
12 Eta hetaric anhitzec behinçát sinhets ceçaten, eta emazte Grec honestetaric, eta guiçonetaric ezgutic.
Therefore many of them believed, including some influential Greek women and many men.
13 Baina iaquin ceçatenean Thessalonicaco Iuduéc ecen Beroen-ere Iaincoaren hitza Paulez denuntiatu içan cela, ethor citecen hara-ere, populua tharritatzen çutela.
But when the Jews of Thessalonica learned that Paul was also proclaiming the word of God at Berea, they went there and stirred up and troubled the crowds.
14 Baina bertan Paul igor ceçaten camporát anayéc, ioan ledinçát itsas alderat beçala: baina Silas eta Timotheo egon citecen han.
Then immediately, the brothers sent Paul to go to the sea, but Silas and Timothy stayed there.
15 Eta Paulen salbura heltzeco carguä hartu çutenéc, eraman ceçaten hura Atheneserano: eta hec harenganic manamendu recebituric Silasgana eta Timotheogana, guciz bertan ethor litecen hura Baithara, parti citecen.
Those who were leading Paul took him as far as the city of Athens. As they left Paul there, they received from him instructions for Silas and Timothy to come to him as quickly as possible.
16 Eta Paul Athenesen hayén beguira cegoela keichatzen cen haren spiritua hura baithan, çacussanean hiria idolatriari emana.
Now while Paul was waiting for them in Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw the city full of idols.
17 Disputatzen cen bada synagogán Iuduequin, eta Iaincoa cerbitzatzen çutenequin, eta merkatuco plaçán egun oroz batzen cenequin
So he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and others who worshiped God, as well as in the marketplace with those who happened to be there.
18 Orduan Epicuriano eta Stoiciano philosopho batzu disputatzen ciraden harequin: eta batzuc erraiten çutén, Cer erran nahi du edasle hunec? Eta bercéc cioiten, Iainco arrotzén eracusle dela dirudi: ceren Iesus denuntiatzen baitzerauen eta resurrectionea.
But also some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers encountered him. Some said, “What is this babbler trying to say?” Others said, “He seems to be one who calls people to follow strange gods,” because he was proclaiming Jesus and the resurrection.
19 Eta hatzamanic hura eraman ceçaten Marsen karricara, cioitela, Iaquin ahal deçaquegu ceric den hiçaz erraiten den doctrina berri hori?
They took Paul and brought him to the Areopagus, saying, “May we know this new teaching which you were speaking?
20 Ecen gauça arrotz batzu gure beharrietara ekarten dituc: nahi diagu bada iaquin gauça horiac cer erran nahi diraden.
For you bring some strange things to our ears. Therefore, we want to know what these things mean.”
21 (Ecen Atheniano guciac eta han egoiten ciraden arrotzac eçeinere berce gauçatara etziraden applicatzen, cembeit berriren erraitera edo ençutera baicen)
(Now all the Athenians and the strangers living there spent their time in nothing but either telling or listening about something new.)
22 Orduan Paulec Marsen karricaren erdian cegoela, erran ceçan, Athenesco guiçonác, gauça gucietan deuotegui beçala ikusten çaituztet çuec.
So Paul stood in the middle of the Areopagus and said, “You men of Athens, I see that you are very religious in every way.
23 Ecen iragaiten naicela eta çuen deuotioneac contemplatzen ditudala eriden-ere badut aldarebat, ceinetan scribatua baitzén, Iaincoa eçagun gabeari. Bada eçagutu gaberic ohoratzen duçuen hura nic denuntiatzen drauçuet:
For as I passed along and observed the objects of your worship, I found an altar with this inscription, “To an Unknown God.” What therefore you worship in ignorance, this I announce to you.
24 Mundua eta hartan diraden gauça guciac eguin dituen Iaincoa, ceruären eta lurraren Iaun delaric, ezta escuz eguin templetan habitatzen.
The God who made the world and everything in it, since he is Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples built with hands.
25 Eta ezta guiçonén escuz cerbitzatzen deusen behar beçala, ikussiric ecen berac emaiten drauztela guciey vicia eta respirationea eta gauça guciac.
Neither is he served by men's hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives people life and breath and everything else.
26 Eta eguin vkan du natura humano gucia odol batetaric: lurraren hedamen gauciaren gainean habita litecençat, lehenetic sasoin ordenatuac determinaturic, eta hayén habitationearen mugarriac eçarriric:
From one man he made every nation of people to live on the surface of the earth, having determined their appointed seasons and the boundaries of their living areas,
27 Iauna bilha leçatençát, aguian haztatuz hura eriden leçaquetenez gure batbederaganic vrrun ezpadere.
so that they should search for God and perhaps they may feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is not far from each one of us.
28 Ecen harçaz vicitzen eta higuitzen eta içaten gara: çuen poetetaric-ere batzuc erran dutén beçala, Ecen haren leinu-ere bagara.
For in him we live and move and have our being, just as one of your own poets has said, 'For we also are his offspring.'
29 Beraz Iaincoaren leinu garenaz gueroz, eztugu estimatu behar Diuinitateac vrrhea edo cilharra edo harria guiçonen artez edo inuentionez moldatua irudi duela.
Therefore, since we are God's offspring, we ought not to think that the qualities of deity are like gold, or silver, or stone—images created by the art and imagination of man.
30 Iaincoac bada ignorantiazco demborác dissimulaturic, orain denuntiatzen draue guiçon guciey leku gucietan emenda ditecen.
Therefore God overlooked the times of ignorance, but now he commands all men everywhere to repent.
31 Ceren ordenatu baitu mundua iustoqui iugeaturen duen eguna determinatu duen guiçonaz, guciey eçagutzera emanic, hura hiletaric resuscitaturic.
This is because he has set a day when he will judge the world in righteousness by the man he has chosen. God has given proof of this man to everyone by raising him from the dead.”
32 Eta ençun çutenean hilén resurrectionea, batzu truffatzen ciraden, eta bercéc erraiten çutén, Ençunen augu berriz horren gainean.
Now when the men of Athens heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked Paul; but others said, “We will listen to you again about this matter.”
33 Eta hunela Paul ilki cedin hayén artetic.
After that, Paul left them.
34 Batzuc halere, hari iunctaturic, sinhets ceçaten: ceinetaric baitzén Dionysio Areopagita-ere, eta Damaris deitzen cen emaztebat, eta berceric hequin.
But certain men joined him and believed, including Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman named Damaris, and others with them.
