1 Na Apolos wadi korint, Bulus cino Firiziya nin Galantiya anin kata udu u Asia, amini wa kwilin udu Efisus. Anin zuro nin namong i woroghe inin ma anan yinusauyenuri.
And it came to pass, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, after passing through the upper districts, came to Ephesus, and finding certain disciples,
2 Atirino nani, “Inaseru Ufunu Ulau kubi kona ina yinin nin liru Kutellẹ? Inanin wa kwanghe iworo natina seru ba. Na tina lanza Ufunu Ulau ba”
said to them: Have you received the Holy Spirit since you believed? They said to him: We have not only not received it, but we have not even heard whether the Holy Spirit is given.
3 Bulus tirino, “Na iwa shintin minu ushitunu ulauwe, iyaghari iwa yinin?” Inanin wa belinghe,”Tina yinin nin ilemon na Yohana unan su baptiszima na dursuzo”
And he said to them: Into what, then, were you immersed? They replied: Into John’s immersion.
4 Bulus woro(belle), “Yohana na sulsun(baptizpsima) anit alena ina chinu matiza ma nanzan. Amini wa belin anite i yinin nin lena ama dak amini na malin da ninkidun uleli unite amare wa di Yesu.”
And Paul said: John immersed with the immersion of repentance, saying to the people, that they must believe on him who should come after him, that is, on the Christ, Jesus.
5 Na anit ane lanza, inani wa su nanin ushitunu nmyen nanya lissan Cikilari Yesu.
And when they heard this, they were immersed into the name of the Lord Jesus.
6 Na isunani, Bulus tarda acarame kitene nati mine, likara Nruhu Ulau tolo nati mine. Uruhu Ulau nanani likara liru nin ton tilem to na inayiruba, inani tutung wa bellu kadura kanga na Uruhu Ulauwe wa belle nanin.
And when Paul laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues, and prophesied.
7 Iwadi anit likure nin nan waba na Bulus wa shintin nani nmyen (Ubaptisima) isere Uruhu Ulau.
And all the men were about twelve.
8 Tipui titat wa kata, Bulus pira kitin zursu na Yahudawa nanya Afisus ko ayame Asabbat a dursuzo nani nin risu nani kitenen Yesu nin yizari Kutellẹ ma dursu litime amere Ugo.
And he entered the synagogue, and spoke boldly, reasoning, and persuading them for three months, with respect to the things of the kingdom of God.
9 Na among a Yahudawa wa yinin nin kadure ba, na iwa di ninsu ilanza tutung ba. Inani wa yitan gwondulu nbellu nimong inanzan kitene nimon ile na Bulus wadi dursuzu nani. Bara nanin Bulus cino nanin ayira anan bi ninghe idi zuro kitin zursun Tiranus.
But as some were hardened, and did not believe, and spoke evil of that way before the multitude, he withdrew from them, and separated the disciples, and discoursed daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
10 Bulus tah akus aba ndursuzu nanite kikane. Nanya nani, ngbardang na Yahudawa ni nalege na iwadi a Yahudawaba, arika na iwa sosin nanya kusarin Asiya inin lanza kadura kitenen Cikilari Yesu.
This continued for two years; so that all that dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.
11 Kutellẹ tutung wa ni Bulus ku likara su nimong izikiki.
Mighty deeds, also, that were unusual, did God perform by the hands of Paul;
12 Alena iwa dinin tikonu na ise udak kitin Bulus ba, vat kupori ko na Bulus ndudo, asa iyira idi tarda kitenen nan konu, iba shinu uruhu unanzanghe sun nani.
so that handkerchiefs or aprons were carried from his body to the sick, and diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits came out of them.
13 Kikane tutung among a Yahudawa wadi diku na iwacinu nigbiri nigbiri, inanin wa ko tiruhu tinanzanghe nanya nani nite. Among a Yahudawa wa belu tiruhu tinanzanghe nuzun nanya nanite inin din bellu, “Indin bellu minu nuzun nanya likaran Cikilari Yesu, ulena Bulus na dursuzo nari kiteneme!”
And some of the roving Jews, who were exorcists, undertook to pronounce the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying: I adjure you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches.
14 Iwadi anit kuzora katwa kane. Asaun nmong unitari lissame wadi Sikava, ku Yahudawa, ulena awadin yiccu litime udya na prist.
And there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did this.
15 Nlonliri ileo ubun kata kane, uruhu unanzanghe nari unuzu kitin nute. Uruhu unanzan woro nanin,”In yiru Yesu ku, nyiro Bulus ku, tutun na umong nani likara ida ti imong imong ba!”
But the evil spirit answered and said: Jesus I acknowledge, and Paul I know; but who are you?
16 Nin belu nanin, kwak unit ulena awa dinin uruhu unazanghe tinna ayina adeu kitenen na saun Sikeve. Amini wa fọ nanin kap a lanza nanin ukule. Anin wa jarza nani imon. Ilanza fiu itina inuzu kilare icoo.
And the man in whom the evil spirit was, leaped on them, and overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled from that house, naked and wounded.
17 Kap nanit alena iwa sosin nan nya Ephisus, vat a Yahudawa nin nalena a Yahudawa iwa lanza ulemone. Imini wa tinna ilaza fiu bar unit ulena ufunu unanzan wa di nan nya me awa dinin likara kan. nin kubi kurume, iwa zazin lisa Ugo Isa.
And this became known to all the Greeks and Jews that dwelt in Ephesus; and fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
18 Nan nya kubi kone, among anan yinnusauyenu iwa latisze, anan yinusauyenu gbardan benle ilemong inanzan na idin suzu.
And many of those who believed came and confessed, and made known their practices.
19 Among anite na iwa di anidibere tina inutuzuno umon kata mine itinna i juju kika na koghe mayen. Dana anit munu ikurfun ilena imong zuzu nikulume ikurfun duru amui akuta atau.
And many of those who practiced magic, brought together their books, and burned them, in the presence of all. And they computed their value, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
20 Nan nya nanin, anit gbardan lanza tipipin kitenen Ugo Isa inanin wa yininsauyenu.
So mightily did the word of the Lord grow and prevail.
21 Unuzu kidun Bulus mala katame nan nya ifisus, Ufunu Ulau yira ghe ayinin udu Urshalima, tutun nin funu a pira kusarin Macidonia nin Achaia anan yene anan yinusauyenu. Bulus woro, “Nin kidun andin duo Urshalima, ma kuru iduo Uroma tutun”
When these things had been accomplished, Paul purposed in spirit to go to Jerusalem, after he should pass through Macedonia and Achaia, saying: After I have been there, I must see Rome also.
22 Amini watu iyichila awa bã anan bungh, Timontawus nin Erastus, udu Macidonia. Tutun Bulus ninsọ nan nya ka gbir, Efisus kusarin Asia.
So, having sent into Macedonia two of those who ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, he remained for a time in Asia.
23 Nin deadai kidun nanin, anit nan nya Efisus chizina ubunkurnu kiti kan bar Isa nin madursuzu kitene me.
And at that time there was no little excitement about that way.
24 Kikane umong unit wa diku nin lisa Damarius. Awake kuguinki nin lisa Diana. Damarius wadin sesu ikurfun kiti nanit ka nin kani kata makeke ku guinki asa nin lewe manin.
For a certain man, named Demetrius, a silversmith, by making silver shrines for Diana, furnished no little trade to the artists.
25 Darius nin yichila adonkata makeke na guinke. Anin woro nanin,”Anit, iyiru kata kanere tidin sesu ikurfun bit ka.
These he called together, with the workmen employed about such things, and said: Men, you know that our wealth arises from this trade:
26 Iyiru Bulus ulena asosin nan nya Efisu ana dursuzo anit gbarde na iwa seru ma guinkibit ba mana tinake. Nene ma anit gbardan unuzu kusari ni gbiri nan nya kusari bit na idu sesu nimong ilena tike ba. Bulus na bellin anite atellẹ alena ti din zazunu ah atellẹ riba nin nanin na tiwa zazu anin ba.
and you see and hear, that not only at Ephesus, but throughout almost the whole of Asia, this Paul, by his persuasions, has drawn away a great multitude, saying, that they which are made with hands are not gods.
27 Andi anit lazaghe imati anit malesu lesu bite yisin. Anite mayenu na idinini su idak kiti bite ba tutun nin dak kuti Diana inan su uzazunume. Anite mayenu Diana di udiah ba. Tutun vat anit kusarin Asia nin uyeh kap ma chinu uzazughe.
Now there is danger, not only that this our calling will come into disgrace, but that the temple of the great goddess Diana will be despised, and that the majesty of her whom all Asia and the world worships, will be destroyed.
28 Vat anite kikane tinna ilaza ayi nin Bulus dana ilaza ilemong na Damarius belle. Inani wa tinin jarttiz, “Diana kutellẹ bite Efisu di gbardan”
When they heard this, they were full of anger, and cried out, saying: Great is Diana of the Ephesians!
29 Anite kan nan nya kagbiri ilaza ayi nin Bulus ini tinna jarttizu. Among anit kifọ Gaius nin aAristachus, inin na bąh jnuzu Macidonia iwa di ana chin nin Bulus. Ninnanin anite kap tinna chium, nin wunu nani udu kikana anan ka gbiri asa isu avuku(theater)
And the whole city was filled with confusion. And they seized Gains and Aristarchus, who were Macedonians, Paul’s fellow-travelers, and, with one consent, rushed into the theater.
30 Bulu wadinin su adue nan nya kiti navuh anan lirina nin nanite, vat nin nanin anan yinusauyenu tinna iwantinghe udu kikane.
And when Paul wished to go in among the people, the disciples did not permit him.
31 Among ago kagbiri na iwa di adondon Bulus ilanza ilemon na idin chi. Inanin wa tu umong kitin Bulus na wa dak nan nya kiti kuti navuaba.
Some of the Asiarchs also, who were friendly to him, sent to him, and besought him not to trust himself into the theater.
32 Lipitin nanite nan nya kuti na vua ilebun jarttizu. Among wadin jarttizu ni momong dabam among tutun jarttizu dabam. Tutun among nan nya mine wa yinin umon elena iwa din jarttizumuba.
Some, therefore, were crying one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused, and the greater part knew not for what they had come together.
33 Umong kuYahudawa lisa me wadi Alezanda. Among a Yahudawa turughe udu bun nanite inin tahghe alirin. Alezanda tinna ah antina ucharame anan tah nanin ichin ujattuzu. Aaadinin su a bellin nanin a Yahudawari ba nati macharantki(troble)
And some of the multitude put Alexander forward, the Jews urging him on. And Alexander waved his hand, and wished to make a defense to the people.
34 Tutun among alena iwadi a Yahudawariba iyino Alezanda ku Yahudawari inin yinno a Yahudawa din zazunu Diana kutella ba.”
But perceiving that he was a Jew, they all cried out, with one voice, for about two hours: Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
35 Nin nanin umong ugo ka gbiria ta lipitnpin nanit chin ujarttizu. Anin belle nanin, “Linananin anan min, koghe yiru nan nya yiulele kutellẹ bite Diana na diu unuzu kitene!
But the town-clerk quieted the multitude, and said: Men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is a worshiper of the great Diana, and of the image that fell down from Jupiter?
36 Koghe yirumu kap, na umong batin aworo ilemonghe kiden ari ba. Bar nanin na kgha ti tik nene. Naiwa su imomong inazan ba.
As these things, then, can not be contradicted, you ought to be quiet, and do nothing rashly.
37 Na iwa danin awa ba ane kikane ba, bar na isu imomong inazan ba. Na idua nan nya na danga bit inin yira imong unuzu kikane, tutun na ilirina imommo inanzan kitene kutellẹbit.
For you have brought these men here, who are neither robbers of temples, nor revilers of your goddess.
38 Bari nanin, andi Damariu nin na nan katame dininsu i ni kogha ku kulapi su imong nanza, na su libau lichine. kika kitin wuchu kidenghe iwawngha idu, kikane anan wuchu kiden duku na ugamnati na fere nanin. Iwangha kifo koghaku idoamu kikane.
Therefore, if Demetrius, and the artists who are with him, have a charge against any one, the courts are in session, and the proconsuls are there; let them accuse each other.
39 Tutun andi idinin su tirinu imomong, iwangha itirino ago mine inan yene ilemong na imasu kitene andi izuro kitikirum.
But if you have any inquiries to make about other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.
40 Uzuru ulene uchauba ba! Yiran ubukurnu kiti kane libau lichine bar arik dinisu ti lanza ayi igomnati ba. Adi ago tiri ni majarttizu man, men waghe ikwana nanin gigime ba.”
For we are in danger of being called to answer for this day’s tumult, since there is no cause by which we shall be able to account for this concourse.
41 Nanere ugo ka gbiri wa belin lipitirunu anite. Amini wa belin kogha ku a kwilin kilarime, inanin wa kwilizin nilarimine.
And when he had said these things, he dismissed the assembly.
