Acts 18
1 After these things Paul departed from Athens and came to Corinth.
Muri iho i enei mea ka haere atu a Paora i Atene, ka tae ki Koriniti;
2 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,
Na ka kite ia i tetahi Hurai ko Akuira te ingoa, i whanau ki Ponoto, he mea tae hou mai i Itari, raua ko tana wahine, ko Pirihira; kua whakahaua hoki e Karauria kia haere atu nga Hurai katoa i Roma: a ka haere ia ki a raua.
3 and because he practiced the same trade, he lived with them and worked, for by trade they were tent makers.
A, no te mea kotahi ta ratou mahi, ka noho ia ki a raua, ka mahi ratou: he tui teneti hoki ta raua mahi.
4 He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath and persuaded Jews and Greeks.
Na ka korerorero ia i roto i te whare karakia i nga hapati katoa, e tohe ana ki nga Hurai ratou ko nga Kariki.
5 When Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
No te taenga mai ia o Hira raua ko Timoti i Makeronia, ka takare te ngakau o Paora, ka whakapuaki ki nga Hurai ko Ihu te Karaiti.
6 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 Gentiles!”
Heoi, i a ratou ka whakatika, ka kohukohu, ka ruia e ia ona kakahu, ka mea ki a ratou, hei runga i o koutou matenga o koutou toto; ka ma ahau: ko tenei ka haere ahau ki nga Tauiwi.
7 He departed there and went into the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.
Na ka haere atu ia i reira, ka tomo ki te whare o tetahi tangata, ko Taituha Hutuha te ingoa, he tangata karakia ki te Atua, ko tona whare i tata tonu ki te whare karakia.
8 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.
Na ka whakapono a Kirihipu, te rangatira o te whare karakia, me tona whare katoa ki te Ariki; he tokomaha hoki nga Koriniti, i a ratou ka rongo, i whakapono, i iriiria hoki.
9 The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, “Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent;
A ka korero moemoea te Ariki ki a Paora i te po, Kaua e wehi, engari me korero, kei noho puku:
10 for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city.”
Kei a koe hoki ahau, e kore hoki tetahi tangata e pa ki a koe, e hoatu i te kino ki a koe: he nui hoki aku tangata i tenei pa.
11 He lived there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
Na kotahi te tau e ono marama i noho ai ia i reira, i whakaako ai i te kupu a te Atua i roto i a ratou.
12 But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,
Na, i a Kario e noho ana hei kawana mo Akaia, kotahi tonu whakatikanga o nga Hurai ki a Paora, a kawea ana ia ki te nohoanga whakawa,
13 saying, “This man persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”
Ka mea, E kukume ana tenei i nga tangata ki tetahi karakia ki te Atua e poka ke ana i ta te ture.
14 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;
A, e mea tonu ana te mangai o Paora ki te puaki, ka mea a Kario ki nga Hurai, E nga Hurai, mehemea ko tetahi hanga he, ko tetahi mahi kino ranei, he tika kia ata whakarongo ahau ki a koutou:
15 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.”
Ko tenei he totohe korero, he mea ki nga ingoa, ki ta koutou ture, kei a koutou te whakaaro; e kore hoki ahau e pai kia waiho ahau hei kaiwhakawa mo ena mea.
16 So he drove them from the judgment seat.
Na peia atu ana ratou e ia i te nohoanga whakawa.
17 Then all the Greeks seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. Gallio did not care about any of these things.
Na ka mau nga Kariki katoa ki a Hotene, rangatira o te whare karakia, a whiua ana ia i mua o te nohoanga whakawa. Heoi kihai a Kario i whakaaro ki tetahi o enei mea.
18 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.
A, ka maha nga ra i noho ai a Paora, ka poroporoaki ia ki nga teina, a rere ana ki Hiria, ratou ko Pirihira ko Akuira; he mea moremore tona i Kenekerea: he ki taurangi hoki nana.
19 He came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself entered into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.
A ka tae ratou ki Epeha, ka mahue raua i a ia ki reira: ko ia i tomo ki te whare karakia, korerorero ai ki nga Hurai.
20 When they asked him to stay with them a longer time, he declined;
A, i ta ratou meatanga kia roa atu te wa e noho ai ia ki a ratou, kihai ia i whakaae;
21 but taking his leave of them, he said, “I must by all means keep this coming feast in Jerusalem, but I will return again to you if God wills.” Then he set sail from Ephesus.
Heoi poroporoaki ana ki a ratou, ka mea, E hoki mai ano ahau ki a koutou, ki te pai te Atua; a rere atu ana ia i Epeha.
22 When he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the assembly, and went down to Antioch.
A, no ka u ia ki Hiharia, ka haere atu ka oha ki te hahi, a haere ana ki Anatioka.
23 Having spent some time there, he departed and went through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, in order, establishing all the disciples.
A, roaroa iho ki reira, ka haere, a haereerea marietia ana e ia te whenua o Karatia, o Pirikia, me te whakau i nga akonga katoa.
24 Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by race, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus. He was mighty in the Scriptures.
Na ka haere mai tetahi Hurai ki Epeha, ko Aporo te ingoa, i whanau ki Arehanaria, he pu korero, he tangata kaha ki nga karaipiture.
25 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.
I whakaakona tenei tangata ki te ara o te Ariki; he tangata ia e toko tonu ake ana te ngakau, ka korero ia, tika tonu hoki tana whakaako i nga mea mo Ihu; heoi ano tana i matau ai ko te iriiri a Hoani;
26 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.
Ka anga ia ka korero nui i roto i te whare karakia. No te rongonga o Akuira raua ko Pirihia ki a ia, ka mau raua ki a ia, ka ata whakaatu ki a ia i te ara o te Atua.
27 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;
A, no ka mea ia kia haere ki Akaia, ka tautokona ia e nga teina, a ka tuhituhi ratou ki nga akonga kia whakamanuhiritia ia e ratou: a, no tona taenga atu, ka whakakahangia e ia te hunga i meinga nei e te aroha noa kia whakapono:
28 for he powerfully refuted the Jews, publicly showing by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.
Kaha rawa hoki tana whawhati i ta nga Hurai i roto i te huihui; whakaaturia ana e ia ta nga karaipiture mo Ihu, ko te Karaiti ia.
