Acts 9
1 Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the disciples of the Lord. He approached the high priest
Eta Saul enflambaturic oraino mehatchuz eta hiltzecaz Iaunaren discipuluén contra, ethor cedin Sacrificadore subiranoagana.
2 and requested letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any men or women belonging to the Way, he could bring them as prisoners to Jerusalem.
Eta letra esca cequión Damascera synagoguetara ioaiteco: baldin nehor erideiten balu secta hunetacoric, guiçonac eta emazteac estecaturic eraman litzançat Ierusalemera.
3 As Saul drew near to Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him.
Eta ioaiten cela, guertha cedin hurbil baitzedin Damascera: eta subitoqui haren inguruän argui cedin chistmist baten ançora cerutic.
4 He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?”
Eta lurrera eroriric ençun ceçan vozbat ciotsala, Saul, Saul cergatic ni persecutatzen nauc?
5 “Who are You, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” He replied.
Eta erran ceçan, Nor aiz Iauna? Eta Iaunac erran ceçan, Ni nauc Iesus hic persecutatzen duana: gogor duc hiretaco akuloén contra ostico eguitea.
6 “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”
Eta harc ikaraturic eta icituric erran ceçan, Iauna, cer nahi duc daguidan? Orduan Iaunac hari, Iaiqui adi eta sar adi hirian, eta erranen çaic cer eguin behar duán.
7 The men traveling with Saul stood there speechless. They heard the voice but did not see anyone.
Eta harequin ioaiten ciraden guiçonac, gueldi citecen icituric, haren voza bay ençuten, baina nehor ikusten etzutela.
8 Saul got up from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could not see a thing. So they led him by the hand into Damascus.
Eta iaiqui cedin Saul lurretic, eta bere beguiac irequiric nehor etzuen ikusten: eta escutic guidatzen çutela, eraman ceçaten Damascera.
9 For three days he was without sight, and he did not eat or drink anything.
Non egon baitzedin hirur egun ikusten etzuela: eta etzeçan ian ez edan.
10 In Damascus there was a disciple named Ananias. The Lord spoke to him in a vision, “Ananias!” “Here I am, Lord,” he answered.
Eta cen Damascen Ananias deitzen cen discipulubat, eta erran cieçon hari Iaunac visionez, Ananias. Eta dio harc, Huná ni, Iauna.
11 “Get up!” the Lord told him. “Go to the house of Judas on Straight Street and ask for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is praying.
Orduan Iaunac hari erran cieçon, Iaiquiric oha Çucena deitzen den karricara, eta bilha eçac Iudaren etchean Saul deitzen den Tharsianobat: ecen hará, othoitzetan diagoc.
12 In a vision he has seen a man named Ananias come and place his hands on him to restore his sight.”
(Eta ikus ceçan visionez Ananias deitzen cen guiçon-bat sartzen cela eta haren gainean escua eçarten çuela, ikustea recebi leçançat)
13 But Ananias answered, “Lord, many people have told me about this man and all the harm he has done to Your saints in Jerusalem.
Eta ihardets ceçan Ananiasec, Iauna, ençun diat anhitzetaric guiçon hunez, cembat gaitz eguin drauen hire sainduey Ierusalemen.
14 And now he is here with authority from the chief priests to arrest all who call on Your name.”
Etare hemen badic authoritate Sacrificadore principaletaric, hire icena inuocatzen duten gucién estecatzeco.
15 “Go!” said the Lord. “This man is My chosen instrument to carry My name before the Gentiles and their kings, and before the people of Israel.
Eta erran cieçon Iaunac, Habil: ecen ene vnci electionezcobat duc hura ekar deçançát ene icena Gentilen, eta reguén, eta Israeleco haourrén aitzinera.
16 I will show him how much he must suffer for My name.”
Ecen nic eracutsiren diarocat cembat behar duen ene icenagatic suffritu.
17 So Ananias went to the house, and when he arrived, he placed his hands on Saul. “Brother Saul,” he said, “the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here, has sent me so that you may see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”
Ioan cedin bada Ananias eta sar cedin etche hartan: eta escuac haren gainean eçarriric, erran ceçan, Saul anayé, Iaunac igorri niauc ( cein baita Iesus hiri ethorten aincen bidean aguertu çayana) ikustea recebi deçançat, eta Spiritu sainduaz bethe adinçat.
18 At that instant, something like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and his sight was restored. He got up and was baptized,
Eta bertan eror citecen haren beguietaric quasi ezcatác beçalacoac, eta ikustea recebi ceçan bertan: guero iaiquiric batheya cedin.
19 and after taking some food, he regained his strength. And he spent several days with the disciples in Damascus.
Eta ian çuenean indar har ceçan. Eta egon cedin Saul Damascen ciraden discipuluequin cembeit egun.
20 Saul promptly began to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues, declaring, “He is the Son of God.”
Eta bertan synagoguetan predica ceçan Christ ecen hura cela Iaincoaren Semea.
21 All who heard him were astounded and asked, “Isn’t this the man who wreaked havoc in Jerusalem on those who call on this name? And hasn’t he come here to take them as prisoners to the chief priests?”
Eta icitzen ciraden hura ençuten çutén guciac, eta erraiten çutén, Ezta haur deseguin dituena Ierusalemen icen haur inuocatzen çutenac, eta hartara huna ethorri baita, hec estecaturic eraman litzançat Sacrificadore principaletara?
22 But Saul was empowered all the more, and he confounded the Jews living in Damascus by proving that Jesus is the Christ.
Baina Saul gueroago fortificatzenago cen, eta confunditzen cituen Damascen habitatzen ciraden Iuduac, confirmatuz ecen haur cela Christ.
23 After many days had passed, the Jews conspired to kill him,
Eta dembora luceren buruän eduqui ceçaten Iuduéc elkarren artean conseillu haren hiltzeco,
24 but Saul learned of their plot. Day and night they watched the city gates in order to kill him.
Baina Saulen eçagutzera ethor citecen hayen celatác: eta beguiratzen cituzten borthác egun eta gau, hura hil leçatençát.
25 One night, however, his disciples took him and lowered him in a basket through a window in the wall.
Baina harturic hura discipuluec gauaz murraillatic erauts ceçaten cordaz sasquian eçarriric.
26 When Saul arrived in Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples, but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
Eta Saul ethorri cenean Ierusalemera, discipuluequin lagundu nahiz çabilan: baina guciac haren beldur ciraden, ez sinhetsiz hura discipulu cela.
27 Then Barnabas brought him to the apostles and described how Saul had seen the Lord, who spoke to him on the road to Damascus, and how Saul had spoken boldly in that city in the name of Jesus.
Baina Barnabasec harturic hura eraman ceçan Apostoluetara, eta conta ciecén nola bidean ikussi çuen Iauna, eta hari minçatu içan çayón, eta nola Damascen frangoqui minçatu içan cen Iesusen icenean.
28 So Saul stayed with them, moving about freely in Jerusalem and speaking boldly in the name of the Lord.
Eta cen hequin ioaiten eta ethorten cela Ierusalemen.
29 He talked and debated with the Grecian Jews, but they tried to kill him.
Eta frangoqui Iesus Iaunaren icenean minçatzen eta disputatzen cen Grecoén contra: baina hec hura hil nahiz çabiltzan.
30 When the brothers learned of this, they took him down to Caesarea and sent him off to Tarsus.
Hori eçaguturic anayéc eraman ceçaten hura Cesareara, eta igor ceçaten Tarsera.
31 Then the church throughout Judea, Galilee, and Samaria experienced a time of peace. It grew in strength and numbers, living in the fear of the Lord and the encouragement of the Holy Spirit.
Elicéc bada Iudea gucian eta Galilean eta Samarian baque çutén, eta edificatzen ciraden, Iaincoaren beldurréan ebiliz, eta Spiritu sainduaren consolationez multiplicatzen ciraden.
32 As Peter traveled throughout the area, he went to visit the saints in Lydda.
Guertha cedin, Pierris gucietarat iragaiten cela, ethor baitzedin Lyddan habitatzen ciraden sainduetara-ere.
33 There he found a man named Aeneas, who had been paralyzed and bedridden for eight years.
Eta eriden ceçan han Eneás deitzen cen guiçon-bat ia çortzi vrthez ohean cetzanic, cein baitzén paralytico:
34 “Aeneas,” Peter said to him, “Jesus Christ heals you! Get up and put away your mat.” Immediately Aeneas got up,
Eta diotsa Pierrisec, Eneás, sendatzen au Iesus Christec: iaiqui adi, eta eure ohea accotra eçac eurorren. Eta bertan iaiqui cedin.
35 and all who lived in Lydda and Sharon saw him and turned to the Lord.
Eta ikus ceçaten hura Lyddan eta Saronan habitatzen ciraden guciéc, eta conuerti citecen Iaunagana.
36 In Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which is translated as Dorcas), who was always occupied with works of kindness and charity.
Ioppen-ere bacén discipulussa Tabitha deitzen cembat, erran nahi baita Dorcas: haur cen bethea obra onez eta elemosyna eguiten cituenéz.
37 At that time, however, she became sick and died, and her body was washed and placed in an upper room.
Eta guertha cedin egun hetan erituric hil baitzedin: eta ikuci çutenean, eçar ceçaten gambera gora batetan.
38 Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples heard that Peter was there and sent two men to urge him, “Come to us without delay.”
Eta ceren Lydda baitzen Iopperen aldean, discipuluec ençunic ecen Pierris han cela, igor citzaten bi guiçon harengana, othoizten çutela ez leçan beránt hetarano ethortera.
39 So Peter got up and went with them. On his arrival, they took him to the upper room. All the widows stood around him, weeping and showing him the tunics and other clothing that Dorcas had made while she was still with them.
Eta iaiquiric Pierris ethor cedin hequin: eta arribatu cenean, eraman ceçaten gambera gorara: eta presenta cequizquión emazte alhargun guciac nigarrez ceudela, eta eracusten cerautzatela Dorcasec hequin cenean eguiten cituen arropác, eta veztidurac.
40 Then Peter sent them all out of the room. He knelt down and prayed, and turning toward her body, he said, “Tabitha, get up!” She opened her eyes, and seeing Peter, she sat up.
Baina guciac campora idoquiric Pierrisec eta belhaurico iarriric othoitz eguin ceçan, eta itzuliric gorputzerát, erran ceçan, Tabitha iaiqui adi, eta harc irequi citzan bere beguiac, eta Pierris ikussiric iarri cedin.
41 Peter took her by the hand and helped her up. Then he called the saints and widows and presented her to them alive.
Orduan Pierrisec escua hari emanic. eraiqui ceçan: guero deithuric sainduac eta emazte alhargunac presenta ciecén hura viciric.
42 This became known all over Joppa, and many people believed in the Lord.
Eta haur eçagut cedin Ioppe gucian eta sinhets ceçaten anhitzec Iauna baithan.
43 And Peter stayed for several days in Joppa with a tanner named Simon.
Eta guertha cedin, egon baitzedin anhitz egun Ioppen Simon deitzen cen larru appainçale batenean.
