Eginak 28

1 Eta salburic emparatu ciradenean, eçagut ceçaten orduan ecen islá Malte deitzen cela.

AND being safe landed, we then understood that the island was called Melita.

2 Eta Barbaroéc humanitate handi eguin cieçagutén: ecen sua vizturic recebi guençaten gu guciac, gaineancen çaicun vriagatic, eta hotzagatic.

And the rude people treated us with singular humanity; for, lighting a fire, they received us all, because of the violent rain, and because of the cold.

3 Bildu çuenean bada Paulec cembeit sirmendu appur, eta eçarri cituenean sura, viperabat beroaren causaz ilkiric lot cequión escutic.

But as Paul was gathering up a faggot of sticks, and laying them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

4 Eta ikussi vkan çutenean Barbaroéc dilindoca bestiá haren escutic, elkarri ciotsaten, Falta gabe guiçon haur guicerhaile da, cein itsassotic, emparaturic mendequioac ezpaitu permettitzen vici den.

Now when the rude people saw the venomous animal hanging from his hand, they said one to another, Surely this man is a murderer, whom though preserved from the sea, righteous vengeance suffereth not to live.

5 Baina harc bestiá sura iharrossiric etzeçan minic har.

But he then shaking off the venomous animal into the fire, suffered no manner of inconvenience.

6 Eta hec beha ceuden noiz hant leiten, edo subitoqui hilic eror leiten: baina luçaqui beha egon içan ciradenean, eta çacussatenean calteric batre etzayola ethorten, proposa cambiaturic erraiten çutén, Iainco cela hura.

Now they expected that a violent inflammation would ensue, or that he would have fallen suddenly dead: but when, after waiting a considerable time, they saw no inconvenience arise to him, they changed their opinion, and said that he was a divinity.

7 Eta ciraden leku hartan islaco principal Publio deitzen cenaren possessioneac, ceinec gu recebituric, hirur egunez benignoqui logea baiquençan.

Now in the vicinity of that place was the estate of the principal person on the island, named Publius, who received us into his house, and lodged us with great humanity three days.

8 Eta guertha cedin Publioren aita baitzatzan helgaitzéc eta sabeldarçunac çaducatela: hura baithara Paul sar cedin, eta othoitz eguinic, eta escuac haren gainean eçarriric senda ceçan.

And it so happened that the father of Publius was then confined to his bed with an attack of fever and dysentery: unto whom Paul went in, and after praying, laid his hands upon him, and healed him.

9 Bada haur eguin eta, islaco berce eritassunic çutenac-ere ethorten ciraden eta sendatzen.

This then being the case, all the rest also who had diseases in the island came to him, and were healed.

10 Hec-ere ohore handi eguin cieçagutén, eta embarcatzeracoan behar cenaz forni guençaten.

Then they honoured us with many tokens of respect; and when we were about to sail, laid in for us every necessary store.

11 Eta hirur hilebetheren buruän embarca guentecen Alexandriaco vnci islán neguä iragan çuen batetan, ceinec baitzituen enseignatzat Castor eta Pollux.

And after three months stay we sailed in a ship which had wintered in the island, from Alexandria, whose sign was Castor and Pollux:

12 Eta Syracusara arriuaturic, han egon guentecen hirur egun.

and proceeding on our voyage to Syracuse, we tarried there three days:

13 Handic inguru eguinic arriua guentecen Rhegera: eta egun-baten buruän egu-erdi haicea iaiquiric, bigarren egunean ethor guentecen Puzolera:

from whence we came round, and arrived opposite to Rhegium; and after one day the south wind arising, we came in two more to Puteoli:

14 Han anayeac eridenic, othoiztu içan guenén egoitera hequin çazpi egun: eta hala ethor guentecen Romara.

where finding brethren, we were solicited by them to tarry seven days; and so we went for Rome.

15 Handic anayeac gure berriac ençunic bidera ilki cequizquigun Appioren merkaturano, eta Hirur botiguetarano: hec ikussi cituenean Paulec, Iaincoari esquerrac rendaturic courage har ceçan.

And the brethren from thence, when they heard of our motions, came out to meet us as far as Appii Forum and the Three Taverns: whom when Paul saw, he gave thanks to God, and felt fresh courage.

16 Eta ethorri içan guenenean Romara, Centenerac eman cietzón capitain generalari presonerac: baina permetti cequión Pauli bere gain egoitera, hura beguiratzen çuen gendarmesarequin.

And when we were come to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard; but he permitted Paul to have an apartment by himself, with a soldier only who guarded him.

17 Hirur egunen buruän dei citzan Paulec Iudu principalac: eta bildu ciradenean erran ciecén, Guiçon anayeác, nic deus eguin ezpadut-ere populuaren contra edo aitén costumén contra, Ierusalemen presonér eguin içanic liuratu içan naiz Romanoén escuetara:

Now it came to pass that after three days Paul called together the principal persons of the Jews. And when they were assembled, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have done nothing contrary to the people and the customs of our ancestors, yet have I been delivered up a prisoner into the hands of the Romans.

18 Ceinéc examinatu nendutenean largatu nahi vkan bainendutén, ceren heriotaco hoguenic batre nitan etzén.

Who, after a full examination, would have discharged me, because there was not the least cause found in me for death.

19 Baina Iuduac contrastatzen ciradenaren gainean, ecin bercez Cesargana appellatu içan naiz: ez neure nationea cerçaz accusa deçadan dudalacotz.

But when the Jews opposed it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I have any accusation to bring against my countrymen.

20 Causa hunegatic bada deithu çaituztet, ikus cinçatedan eta minça nenguiçuençát: ecen Israeleco sperançaren causaz cadena hunez inguratua nago.

For this cause therefore have I invited you hither, to see and to converse with you; for on account of the hope of Israel am I bound with this chain.

21 Eta hec erran cieçoten, Guc ez letraric recebitu diagu hiçaz Iudeatic: ez ethorriric anayetaric nehorc denuntiatu dic edo erran deus hiçaz gaizquiric.

Then they said to him, We have neither received letters concerning thee from Judea, nor hath any one of the brethren who is arrived reported or spoken any thing evil of thee.

22 Baina nahi diagu hireganic ençun cer irudi ceyán: ecen secta horrez den becembatean, baceaquiagu ecen leku gucietan nehor contrastatzen çayola.

But we think it highly proper to hear from thee what thy sentiments are; for indeed as to this sect, it is well known to us that everywhere it meets with opposition.

23 Eta assignatu vkan ceraucatenean eguna, ethor citecen harengana ostatura anhitz: eta testificationerequin declaratzen cerauen Iaincoaren resumá, eta eracusten cerauztén Iesusez diraden gauçác, hambat Moysesen Leguetic nola Prophetetaric goicetic arratserano.

Then having fixed a day with him, still more of them came to him at his lodging, to whom bearing his testimony, he set forth the kingdom of God, and persuaded them of the things relating to Jesus, both out of the law of Moses and the prophets, from morning until evening:

24 Eta batzuc sinhesten cituztén erraiten ciraden gauçác, baina bercéc etzituzten sinhesten.

and some were convinced by the things which were spoken, but others continued in their unbelief.

25 Eta elkarren artean accord etziradenaren gainean, parti citecen, Paulec hitz haur erran eta, Segurqui vngui Spiritu saindua minçatu içan çaye Esaias prophetáz gure Aitey,

So being divided in sentiment among themselves, they broke up, Paul adding one word, That well had the Holy Ghost spoken by Isaiah the prophet unto our fathers,

26 Cioela, Habil populu horrengana, eta errac, Ençutez ençunen duçue eta eztuçue adituren: eta dacussaçuela ikussiren duçue eta etzaizquiote oharturen.

saying, Go to this people, and say, “In hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, yet in nowise perceive.

27 Ecen guicendu da populu hunen bihotza, eta beharriez gothorqui ençun vkan duté, eta bere beguiac ertsi vkan dituzté: beguiéz ikus, eta beharriez ençun, eta bihotzez adi ez teçatençát, eta conuerti ez titecen, eta senda ez titzadan.

For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and with their ears they are thick of hearing, and their eyes have they shut; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and become converts, and I should heal them.”

28 Iaquiçue bada çuec ecen Gentiley igorri içan çayela saluagarri haur, eta hec ençunen dutela.

Be it known therefore unto you, that to the Gentiles is the salvation of God sent, and they will hear.

29 Eta gauça hauc erran cituenean, ilki citecen Iuduac, bere artean disputa handi çutela.

And when he had thus spoken, the Jews went away, and had much disputing among themselves.

30 Baina egon cedin Paul bi vrthe complituric bere ostatu alocatuan: eta recebitzen cituen harengana ethorten ciraden guciac:

But Paul abode two whole years in his own hired apartment, and received all who came to him,

31 Predicatzen çuela Iaincoaren resumá, eta iracasten cituela Iesus Christ Iaunaz diraden gauçác, minçatzeco hardieça gucirequin, nehorc empatchuric eguin gabe.

preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ with all freedom of discourse, and without the least interruption.
