Katwa Nono Katwa 25
1 Nene, Festus pira kipin tigo me, na ayiri atat nkata, anye udu Ukaisariya nin Urushelima.
When Festus was come into the province after thre dayes he ascended fro Cesarea vnto Ierusalem.
2 Ugo napirist nin na didia na Yahudawa su tizogo kitene Bulus nin Festus, isu uliru nin likara kitin Festus, isu ulinu nin likara kitin Festus.
Then enformed him the hye prestes and the chefe of the Iewes of Paul. And they besought him
3 Itirino Festus ku ati ayi asheu nin bulus, nworo ayicila ghe udu Urushelimma inan mologhe libau we.
and desired faveour agaynst him that he wold sende for him to Ierusalem: and layde awayte for him in the waye to kill him.
4 Ama Festus kauwa nani Bulus kucin nari nanya Kaisariya, ame liti me ba kpinlu kikane.
Festus answered that Paul shuld be kept at Cesarea: but that he him selfe wold shortly departe thither.
5 “Bara nani, alenge na iwasa isu,” aworo, “Iba duu nanghirik, asa na imon nnana, iba kifu ghe nin kulapi.”
Let the therfore (sayd he) which amoge you are able to do it come doune with vs and accuse him if ther be eny faute in the man.
6 Na aso ayiri kulir sa likure, annya udu Ukaisariya, nin liyiri linbe aso kutet nwucu kidegen, ata idanin Bulus kiti me.
When he had taried there moare then ten dayes he departed vnto Cesarea and the nexte daye sate doune in the iudgemet seate and commaunded Paul to be brought.
7 Na ada duru, a Yahudawa unuzu Urushelima da yisina kupo me, ibelle kinu kanga na kidegen duku ba.
When he was come the Iewes which were come fro Ierusalem came aboute him and layde many and greveous complayntes agaynst Paul which they coulde not prove
8 Bulus kusu liti me aworo, “Na kitene lisa na Yahudawa ba, a na kitene kutyi nlirag ba, ana kitene ugo Kaisar ba, anin nsu utanua.”
as longe as he answered for him selfe that he had nether agaynst the lawe of the Iewes nether agaynst the temple nor yet agaynst Cesar offended eny thinge at all.
9 Ame Festus dinin su ase uyinnu na Yahudawa, anin kauwa Bulus ku aworo, “Udinin su udoo Urushelima meng di wuso fi kidegen, kitene nile imone kikane?”
Festus willinge to do the Iewes a pleasure answered Paul and sayde: wilt thou goo to Ierusalem and there be iudged of these thinges before me?
10 Bulus woro, “Meng yisin nbun kutet nwucu kidegen kaisar, kika na iba wussi kidegen. Na nna su Ayahudawa kulapi ba, nafo nafe yiru.
Then sayd Paul: I stonde at Cesars iudgemet seate where I ought to be iudged. To ye Iewes have I no harme done as thou verely well knowest.
11 Ko nin nwonu nna taan, nin woro andi nnasu imomon ile na ibatina ukul, na nnari nkuu ba, Bara nani andi na uvuruzu mine na imonari ba, na umong wa nakpai kiti mine ba. In yicila kiti Kaisar.”
If I have hurte them or comitted eny thinge worthy of deeth I refuse not to dye. If none of these thinges are where of they accuse me no man owght to delyver me to them. I appeale vnto Cesar.
12 Kubi na Festus nlira nan na didia a kauwa, “Uyicila kitene kaisar; uba duu kitin kaisar.”
Then spake Festus with deliberacion and answered. Thou hast appealed vnto Cesar: vnto Cesar shalt thou goo.
13 Nene na among ayiri nkata, ame uga Agaripa nin Banis da duru nanya Nkaisariya, isu lizzi kiti Festus.
After a certayne dayes kinge Agrippa and Bernice came vnto Cesarea to salute Festus.
14 Kubi na awadi kikane ayiri gbardang Festus durso uliru Bulus kiti ngowe, a woro, “Felix na suun umong kikane nafo unan licin.
And when they had bene there a good ceason Festus rehersed Paules cause vnto ye kynge sayinge: ther is a certayne man left in preson of Felix
15 Kubi na nwanwandi nanyan Urushalima ago na Priest nin nakukune na Yahudawa da nin nliru kitene nnit une kiti nigh itiri ni nmolu ghe.
about whom when I came to Ierusalem the hye prestes and elders of the Iewes enformed me and desyred to have iudgement agaynst him.
16 Kiti nlel nkauwa nworu na alada nin na Romawa, inii unit nafo unit ulau, nin nani lenge na avuro ghe, bara anan kusu liti me.
To whom I answered: It is not the maner of the Romayns to delyver eny man that he shuld perisshe before that he which is accused have the accusars before him and have licence to answer for him selfe concerninge ye cryme layde agaynst him:
17 Bara nani, kubi na ida ligowe, na nwa cicah ba, nin nkuiye nso kutet nwucu kidgen, ntaa idaa nin nite nanye.
whe they were come hidder wt out delaye on the morowe I sate to geve iudgement and comaunded ye ma to be brought forthe.
18 Kubi na ale na vuroge nfita, men yene nafo vat nile imon na ivuro ghe mun, di nin likara ba.
Agaynst who when ye accusers stode vp they brought none accusacion of soche thinges as I supposed:
19 Nin nani, idinin nimomon ugang kitene nadini mine, kitene nimong Yesu ulenge na ann kuu, ulenge na Bulus dinsu a dinin lai.
but had certayne questions agaynst him of their awne supersticion and of one Iesus which was ded: whom Paul affirmed to be alyve.
20 Na meng nyinno iyizari nbasu uleli uliru ba, men bellinghe, andi aba du Urushalima, idi wuso ghe kidegene kitene nile imone.
And be cause I douted of soche maner questions I axed him whyther he wolde goo to Ierusalem and there be iudged of these matters.
21 bara kubi na iwa yicila Bulus ku idi ceo ghe kiti licin, bara ubellu ngo udia, men belle i ceo ghe, udu kubi kongo na mba tuu ninghe kiti Kaisar.”
Then when Paul had appealed to be kept vnto the knowledge of Cesar I commaunded him to be kept tyll I myght sende him to Cesar.
22 Agarippa wa liru nin Festus, “Meng wang ba yitu nin su nlanza unit une.” Nin nkui” Festus woro “Una lanza ghe.”
Agrippa sayd vnto Festus: I wolde also heare ye man my selfe. To morowe (sayde he) thou shalt heare him.
23 Udu liyirin ndofine, Agarippa nin Banis ida nin ngonon kang, ida pira nanya kuyiye nin nasoja, nan nanit adidia kagbire, kubi na Festus nlirina ida nin Bulus kiti mine.
And on ye morowe when Agrippa was come and Bernice with greate pompe and were entred into the counsell housse with the captaynes and chefe men of the cite at Festus commaundement Paul was brought forth.
24 Festus woro, “Ugo Agarippa, nin vat nanit alenge na idi kikane nanghinik, iyene unit ule, vat ngardang Nayahudiyawa na da seei kikane tutun, inani na lirin nin liwui, na iwa suun unit ule nin lai ba.
And Festus sayde: kynge Agrippa and all men which are heare present wt vs: ye se this man about whom all the multitude of the Iewes have bene with me both at Ierusalem and also here cryinge that he ought not to lyve eny lenger.
25 Meng na lanza na asu imon ile na ibatina ukul ba, ama bara na ana yicila kiti ngo, nmini di nworu ntuu ghe.
Yet founde I nothinge worthy of deeth that he had comitted. Neverthelesse seinge that he hath appealed to Cesar I have determined to sende him.
26 Bara ndimun nimon ident ile na nba nyertinu ugo ba, unnere ntaa, nmini ndaa ninghe kiti mine, fe Ugo Agarippa, bara nnanse imomon gbardang na nba nyertinu kitene nshara ule.
Of whom I have no certayne thinge to wryte vnto my lorde. Wherfore I have brought him vnto you and specially vnto the kynge Agrippa that after examinacion had I myght have sumwhat to wryte.
27 Bara uba so nafo usalin kpilizu, kiti nigh, ntuu nin nan licin, sa ubelle nimon ile na idin vuruzughe mun.”
For me thynketh it vnreasonable for to sende a presoner and not to shewe the causes which are layde agaynst him.
