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.
Now it happened that, while Apollo was at Corinth, Paul, after he had journeyed through the upper regions, arrived at Ephesus. And he met with 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”
And he said to them, “After believing, have you received the Holy Spirit?” But they said to him, “We have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”
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”
Yet truly, he said, “Then with what have you been baptized?” And they said, “With the baptism of John.”
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.”
Then Paul said: “John baptized the people with the baptism of repentance, saying that they should believe in the One who is to come after him, that is, in Jesus.”
5 Na anit ane lanza, inani wa su nanin ushitunu nmyen nanya lissan Cikilari Yesu.
Upon hearing these things, they were baptized in 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 had imposed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came over them. And they were speaking in tongues and prophesying.
7 Iwadi anit likure nin nan waba na Bulus wa shintin nani nmyen (Ubaptisima) isere Uruhu Ulau.
Now the men were about twelve in all.
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.
Then, upon entering the synagogue, he was speaking faithfully for three months, disputing and persuading them about 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 when certain ones became hardened and would not believe, cursing the Way of the Lord in the presence of the multitude, Paul, withdrawing from them, separated the disciples, disputing daily in a certain school of 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.
Now this was done throughout two years, so that all who were living in Asia listened to the Word of the Lord, both Jews and Gentiles.
11 Kutellẹ tutung wa ni Bulus ku likara su nimong izikiki.
And God was accomplishing powerful and uncommon miracles by the hand 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 much so that even when small cloths and wrappings were brought from his body to the sick, the illnesses withdrew from them and the wicked spirits departed.
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!”
Then, even some of the traveling Jewish exorcists had attempted to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, “I bind you by oath through 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 certain Jews, the seven sons of Sceva, leaders among the priests, who were acting in this way.
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 a wicked spirit responded by saying to them: “Jesus I know, 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 there was a wicked spirit, leaping at them and getting the better of them both, 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 so, this became known to all the Jews and Gentiles who were living at Ephesus. And a fear fell over 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 believers were arriving, confessing, and announcing their deeds.
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.
Then many of those who had followed odd sects brought together their books, and they burned them in the sight of all. And after determining the value of these, they found the price to be fifty thousand denarii.
20 Nan nya nanin, anit gbardan lanza tipipin kitenen Ugo Isa inanin wa yininsauyenu.
In this way, the Word of God was increasing strongly and was being confirmed.
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”
Then, when these things were completed, Paul decided in the Spirit, after crossing through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, “Then, after I have been there, it is necessary for me to 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.
But sending two of those who were ministering to him, Timothy and Erastus, into Macedonia, he himself 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.
Now at that time, there occurred no small disturbance concerning the Way of the Lord.
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 making silver shrines for Diana, was providing no small profit to craftsmen.
25 Darius nin yichila adonkata makeke na guinke. Anin woro nanin,”Anit, iyiru kata kanere tidin sesu ikurfun bit ka.
And calling them together, with those who were employed in the same way, he said: “Men, you know that our income is from this craft.
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 are seeing and hearing that this man Paul, by persuasion, has turned away a great multitude, not only from Ephesus, but from nearly all of Asia, saying, ‘These things are not gods which have been made by hands.’
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.
Thus, not only is this, our occupation, in danger of being brought into repudiation, but also the temple of the great Diana will be reputed as nothing! Then even her majesty, whom all of Asia and the world worships, will begin to 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”
Upon hearing this, they were filled with anger, and they 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 city was filled with confusion. And having seized Gaius and Aristarchus of Macedonia, companions of Paul, they rushed violently, with one accord, into the amphitheater.
30 Bulu wadinin su adue nan nya kiti navuh anan lirina nin nanite, vat nin nanin anan yinusauyenu tinna iwantinghe udu kikane.
Then, when Paul wanted to enter to the people, the disciples would 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.
And some of the leaders from Asia, who were his friends, also sent to him, requesting that he not present himself in the amphitheater.
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.
But others were crying out various things. For the assembly was in confusion, and most did not know the reason they had been called 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)
So they dragged Alexander from the crowd, while the Jews were propelling him forward. And Alexander, gesturing with his hand for silence, wanted to give the people an explanation.
34 Tutun among alena iwadi a Yahudawariba iyino Alezanda ku Yahudawari inin yinno a Yahudawa din zazunu Diana kutella ba.”
But as soon as they realized him to be a Jew, all with one voice, for about two hours, were crying out, “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!
And when the scribe had calmed the crowds, he said: “Men of Ephesus, now what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is in the service of the great Diana and of the offspring of 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.
Therefore, since these things are not able to be contradicted, it is necessary for you to be calm and to do nothing rash.
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 forward these men, who are neither sacrilegious nor blasphemers against 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.
But if Demetrius and the craftsmen who are with him have a case against anyone, they can convene in the courts, and there are proconsuls. Let them accuse one another.
39 Tutun andi idinin su tirinu imomong, iwangha itirino ago mine inan yene ilemong na imasu kitene andi izuro kitikirum.
But if you would inquire about other things, this can be decided 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 now we are in peril of being convicted of sedition over today’s events, since there is no one guilty (against whom we are able to provide evidence) in this gathering.”
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 this, he dismissed the assembly.
