Katwa Nono Katwa 17
1 Inanin wachinu nigbiri nigbir Amphipos nin Apollolonia ma inin da kagbiri Thessalonika. Kikane wadi kiti zursuzu na Yahudawa
And having passed through Amphipolis, and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was the synagogue of the Jews,
2 In wui na sabbath Bulus pira kitin zursu nafo usum. Tisati tat awa pichu ko ayeme asabbath. Amini wa dursuzo anite tipipinlitafe woro Isa amere mazamu Christi.
and according to the custom of Paul, he went in unto them, and for three sabbaths he was reasoning with them from the Writings,
3 Amini wa nuna nanin nuzu litafe. anan yenjun bun na nyerti kiden ame Misiah maku akura fita nin lai tutun. Amini wabelin” Ule unite amere Isa ah Christi. Anaku amini na fita tutun, nanare anan yenjun bun nabelin”.
opening and alleging, 'That the Christ it behoved to suffer, and to rise again out of the dead, and that this is the Christ — Jesus whom I proclaim to you.'
4 Among a Yahudawa kikane yinna nin nilemon na Bulus belle inin chizina zurzu nin Bulus nin Sila. Kikane ma amon wadiku na Yahudawari ba nin umong uwani unan dortu Kutellẹ amini tutun wa yinin nin liru kitenen Isa, inanin wa chizina uzursu nin Bulus nin Sila.
And certain of them did believe, and attached themselves to Paul and to Silas, also of the worshipping Greeks a great multitude, of the principal women also not a few.
5 Amon adida na Yahudawe ayimine wa nana nin nanite bar na iwa yinin sauyenu nin lirulena Bulus durso nanin. Bar nanin i do idi yichila anit gbarda ini rususzo anit idofin nanin. Nin nanin inin, adide na Yahudawe nin pitirno anit gbardan inin ta jartizu. Ayahudawa ane tinna ido igan Jason kikana an Bulus nin Sila wasosinku. Iwa dinin su inutun Bulus nin Sila udas kitinanite.
And the unbelieving Jews, having been moved with envy, and having taken to them of the loungers certain evil men, and having made a crowd, were setting the city in an uproar; having assailed also the house of Jason, they were seeking them to bring [them] to the populace,
6 Imini wa se an Bulus nin Sila wadi nan nya kilare b, inanin wa se Jason ma inin kifo gh. Ma inin wunughe nin among anan yinnusauyenu kiti nago ka gbiri. Inin belle” Anit alena idin fizi nibinai iyẹ ida kikanema tutyun.
and not having found them, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the city rulers, calling aloud — 'These, having put the world in commotion, are also here present,
7 Ame Jason yira nanin achau in game. Na idimun su kaisar ba. Inanin belle umong unit diku lisame Isa amere ugo kiden.
whom Jason hath received; and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying another to be king — Jesus.'
8 Dana lipitin nanite da kitikirum nin nago ka gbiri nibinai mine nana kan.
And they troubled the multitude and the city rulers, hearing these things,
9 Ago ka gbiri ta Jason na ikubu inin belle nanin ima ni nanin ikubua andi Bulus nin Sila fia nibinai nanite tutunba. Nin nanin ago ka gbiri in belle Jason nin nannan yinnu sauyenu nyha.
and having taking security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.
10 Nin kitik kan, anan yinnu sauyenu tinna inutuno Bulus nin sila nan nya Thesalika udu ka gbiri Berea. Dana Bulus nin Sila wa duru kikane, itinna i pira kitin zursuzu na Yahudawa.
And the brethren immediately, through the night, sent forth both Paul and Silas to Berea, who having come, went to the synagogue of the Jews;
11 Ayahudawan Thasalonika wa xinin su lazin liru Kutellẹ nafo Ayahudawan Berea ba, inanin wa lanza gigime uliru kitenen Isa. Kolome liri iwa gartu tipipin nin litimine iyinin kidegen liru ulena Bulus wa bellin kitenen Isa.
and these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, they received the word with all readiness of mind, every day examining the Writings whether those things were so;
12 Bar udursuzu Bulus Ayahudawa gbardan yinna nin Isa, nin na mong awani alena Ayahudawaba nin nanilime alena Ayahudawariba wa yinin nin gye.
many, indeed, therefore, of them did believe, and of the honourable Greek women and men not a few.
13 Nanin tutun Ayahudawa nan nya thasalonika lanza Bulus din durzsuzu uliru Kutellẹ kitenen Isa. Inanin wa do Uberea inin woro nin nanit alena idi kikane ibelle imong ilena imati ilanza ayi nin Bulus.
And when the Jews from Thessalonica knew that also in Berea was the word of God declared by Paul, they came thither also, agitating the multitudes;
14 Among anan yinnu sauyenu yira Bulus ku udukuasri lkurawa kuda inan nya udu kan ka gbiri. Sila nin Timintawus wa soh nan nya Berea.
and then immediately the brethren sent forth Paul, to go on as it were to the sea, but both Silas and Timothy were remaining there.
15 Dana Bulus nin nanan yinnu sauyenu iwa duru ugefe kuraw, itinna pira ujirgin mmen kata udu kagbiri Antakia. Bulus ninworo nin nale ne dã ninṣhe.”Belle Sila ninTimintawus idak kitinin in Atantakia.” Anite ne chino Antakia ma inin kwila udu Berea.
And those conducting Paul, brought him unto Athens, and having received a command unto Silas and Timotheus that with all speed they may come unto him, they departed;
16 Nan nya Athens Bulus soncha Sila nin Timotawus idak. Nan nya nani, achina a kilino ka gbiri. Amini wa lanza mmang kibinaime ba bar ka gbiri wadini chil(idol)
and Paul waiting for them in Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, beholding the city wholly given to idolatry,
17 Amini wa duo kitin zursu na Yahudawa anin lirina kitenen Isa nin na Yahudawa, ah tutun a Greek alena na sere ilemon na a Yahuda yinna mu. Amini wa nuzu udas atinna kolome liri anin lira kiti nanite alena awa zuro nan ghinu kikane.
therefore, indeed, he was reasoning in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the worshipping persons, and in the market-place every day with those who met with him.
18 Bulus zuro nin among anan dursuzu inanin wa dinin so iliru kitene nilemong na anit yinnamu. anite wa din yichi Among Epicorion, among iyichananin Stoiks. Inanin wa belin Bulus ku ilemong na inin yinnam, inin tiringhe iyeri ame yinnamu. Among woro nin natimine “nafo adinbellu kutellẹ kona tiyirimuba”. Inin woro bar na Bulus wa dinbelu nanin Isa naku amini nafita adimun ilai tutun.
And certain of the Epicurean and of the Stoic philosophers, were meeting together to see him, and some were saying, 'What would this seed picker wish to say?' and others, 'Of strange demons he doth seem to be an announcer;' because Jesus and the rising again he did proclaim to them as good news,
19 Among tinna iyiraghe kiti kana kana adide ka gbiri din zursuzu. Dana iduru kikane inin woro nin Bulus, “Benle nari, iyapin imong ipese udin dursuzu anite?
having also taken him, unto the Areopagus they brought [him], saying, 'Are we able to know what [is] this new teaching that is spoken by thee,
20 Idin dursuzu imong ilengena tiyirimung b, bar nani iyadi nari tiyinin iyapimonari ine.
for certain strange things thou dost bring to our ears? we wish, then, to know what these things would wish to be;'
21 Anitin Athans nin nalena idi kusari kone ne isosinku, idinin so ilaza uliru upese.
and all Athenians, and the strangers sojourning, for nothing else were at leisure but to say something, and to hear some newer thing.
22 Nin nani Bulus tina ayisina mbun mine anin woro.”Anit Athaan, yene anughe idinin nadini kan.
And Paul, having stood in the midst of the Areopagus, said, 'Men, Athenians, in all things I perceive you as over-religious;
23 Mbele nanin bar, dana indinchinu mmini yene mmong ilengebna idin zazunu, mmini yene kon kubagadi nin lisa kona idin yichu kunin: KUTELLẸ KONA TIYIRUMU BA. Nene mma belin minu Kutellẹ kona idin zazunu na iyirughe ba.
for passing through and contemplating your objects of worship, I found also an erection on which had been inscribed: To God — unknown; whom, therefore — not knowing — ye do worship, this One I announce to you.
24 Amere Kutelle ulena anake uyi nin nimog vat nan ny. Amere min koyang nan nya kitene nin kutin, na adin sozu kudaga kona inake nin na charaba.
'God, who did make the world, and all things in it, this One, of heaven and of earth being Lord, in temples made with hands doth not dwell,
25 Na adimin so nimong na ina ke bar ameba Amre nani nari ulai nin ununfash, Amini na ni nanin mmong ilena idimung su.
neither by the hands of men is He served — needing anything, He giving to all life, and breath, and all things;
26 Kubin hizine, Kutellẹ nake unit nin wanim, nan nya minere ama maru anit nan nya iye na isozun ko kame kagbiri. Amini ana ti anit niti kubi
He made also of one blood every nation of men, to dwell upon all the face of the earth — having ordained times before appointed, and the bounds of their dwellings —
27 Ana dimun su anit yinin anit dinin sume. Bar inan piziraghe inin saghe. Kutellẹ dinin su ti pizirughevat nin nani adi ku popo nan arik.
to seek the Lord, if perhaps they did feel after Him and find, — though, indeed, He is not far from each one of us,
28 Bar Kutellẹre ta tidimi la, tidin chinu ti diku, nafo na umong belle nan nya min, 'bar arik nono mere.
for in Him we live, and move, and are; as also certain of your poets have said: For of Him also we are offspring.
29 Barnanin arik nono Kutellẹ ari, na tiwa yene nafo Kutellẹ masin ugold ko usilva ko kutala, kona anit nake.
'Being, therefore, offspring of God, we ought not to think the Godhead to be like to gold, or silver, or stone, graving of art and device of man;
30 Kubi kona anit yiru ilemong na Kutellẹ dinin su mine i su, [kubin sirti] na ana fuor nanin ba. Bar nanin nene Kutellee na woro anite vat ichin matiza manazan.
the times, indeed, therefore, of the ignorance God having overlooked, doth now command all men everywhere to reform,
31 Amini na belin nari umong uwui din chinu na ama da su kogha ku kiwucho kidegen nin niti ulena ana fere, amini nafe unit une nuzun kisek [ukul]
because He did set a day in which He is about to judge the world in righteousness, by a man whom He did ordain, having given assurance to all, having raised him out of the dead.'
32 Dana anit ilanza Bulus uworo unite fita nuzu kisek dana ana ku, amon mine tin na isisila ghe. Amon nin belinghe adak ilonliri tutun.
And having heard of a rising again of the dead, some, indeed, were mocking, but others said, 'We will hear thee again concerning this;'
33 Dana ibelle nanin Bulus tinna ahgha.
and so Paul went forth from the midst of them,
34 Vatninnanin among dofuno Buluse ku inin yinna nin liru kitenen Isa. Nan nya nanit alena yinna nin Isa umong wa diku lisame Dionysius. Tutun umong uwani wadiku lisame Damaris nin na mong nan ghinu na iwa yinin sauyenu.
and certain men having cleaved to him, did believe, among whom [is] also Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman, by name Damaris, and others with them.
