Katwa Nono Katwa 19
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.
While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having passed through the upper country, came to Ephesus and found 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”
He said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” They said to him, “No, we haven’t 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”
He said, “Into what then were you baptised?” They said, “Into John’s baptism.”
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.”
Paul said, “John indeed baptised with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe in the one who would come after him, that is, in Christ Jesus.”
5 Na anit ane lanza, inani wa su nanin ushitunu nmyen nanya lissan Cikilari Yesu.
When they heard this, they were baptised 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.
When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them and they spoke with other languages and prophesied.
7 Iwadi anit likure nin nan waba na Bulus wa shintin nani nmyen (Ubaptisima) isere Uruhu Ulau.
They were about twelve men 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.
He entered into the synagogue and spoke boldly for a period of three months, reasoning and persuading about the things concerning God’s Kingdom.
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 some were hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the 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.
This continued for two years, so that all those who lived in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
11 Kutellẹ tutung wa ni Bulus ku likara su nimong izikiki.
God worked special miracles 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 even handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out.
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!”
But some of the itinerant Jews, exorcists, took on themselves to invoke over those who had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, “We adjure you by 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.
There were seven sons of one 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!”
The evil spirit answered, “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.
The man in whom the evil spirit was leapt on them, overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of 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.
This became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who lived at Ephesus. Fear fell on 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.
Many also of those who had believed came, confessing and declaring 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.
Many of those who practised magical arts brought their books together and burnt them in the sight of all. They counted their price, and found it to be fifty thousand pieces of silver.
20 Nan nya nanin, anit gbardan lanza tipipin kitenen Ugo Isa inanin wa yininsauyenu.
So the word of the Lord was growing and becoming mighty.
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”
Now after these things had ended, Paul determined in the Spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, “After I have been there, I must also see Rome.”
22 Amini watu iyichila awa bã anan bungh, Timontawus nin Erastus, udu Macidonia. Tutun Bulus ninsọ nan nya ka gbir, Efisus kusarin Asia.
Having sent into Macedonia two of those who served him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.
23 Nin deadai kidun nanin, anit nan nya Efisus chizina ubunkurnu kiti kan bar Isa nin madursuzu kitene me.
About that time there arose no small disturbance concerning the 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 who made silver shrines of Artemis, brought no little business to the craftsmen,
25 Darius nin yichila adonkata makeke na guinke. Anin woro nanin,”Anit, iyiru kata kanere tidin sesu ikurfun bit ka.
whom he gathered together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, “Sirs, you know that by this business we have our wealth.
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.
You see and hear that not at Ephesus alone, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are no gods that are made with 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.
Not only is there danger that this our trade come into disrepute, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be counted as nothing and her majesty destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worships.”
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 filled with anger, and cried out, saying, “Great is Artemis 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)
The whole city was filled with confusion, and they rushed with one accord into the theatre, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel.
30 Bulu wadinin su adue nan nya kiti navuh anan lirina nin nanite, vat nin nanin anan yinusauyenu tinna iwantinghe udu kikane.
When Paul wanted to enter in to the people, the disciples didn’t allow 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.
Certain also of the Asiarchs, being his friends, sent to him and begged him not to venture into the theatre.
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 cried one thing, and some another, for the assembly was in confusion. Most of them didn’t know why 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)
They brought Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. Alexander beckoned with his hand, and would have made a defence to the people.
34 Tutun among alena iwadi a Yahudawariba iyino Alezanda ku Yahudawari inin yinno a Yahudawa din zazunu Diana kutella ba.”
But when they perceived that he was a Jew, all with one voice for a time of about two hours cried out, “Great is Artemis 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!
When the town clerk had quieted the multitude, he said, “You men of Ephesus, what man is there who doesn’t know that the city of the Ephesians is temple keeper of the great goddess Artemis, and of the image which fell down from Zeus?
36 Koghe yirumu kap, na umong batin aworo ilemonghe kiden ari ba. Bar nanin na kgha ti tik nene. Naiwa su imomong inazan ba.
Seeing then that these things can’t be denied, you ought to be quiet 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 these men here, who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers 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.
If therefore Demetrius and the craftsmen who are with him have a matter against anyone, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. Let them press charges against 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 seek anything about other matters, it will be settled in the regular 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 indeed we are in danger of being accused concerning today’s riot, there being no cause. Concerning it, we wouldn’t be able to give an account of this commotion.”
41 Nanere ugo ka gbiri wa belin lipitirunu anite. Amini wa belin kogha ku a kwilin kilarime, inanin wa kwilizin nilarimine.
When he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
