1 Eta Saul consent cen haren hiltzean. Eta eguin cedin dembora hartan persecutione handi Ierusalemen cen Eliçaren contra: eta guciac barreya citecen Iudeaco eta Samariaco comarquetarát, salbu Apostoluac.
And Saul was consenting to his death. And at that time there was raised a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all dispersed through the countries of Judea, and Samaria, except the apostles.
2 Eta eraman ceçaten Esteben ohorztera Iaincoaren beldurra çuten guiçon batzuc, eta nigar handi eguin ceçaten haren gainean.
And devout men took order for Stephen’s funeral, and made great mourning over him.
3 Eta Saulec deseguiten çuen Eliçá, etchez etche sartzen cela: eta tiratuz bortchaz guiçonac eta emazteac presoindeguian eçarten cituen.
But Saul made havock of the church, entering in from house to house, and dragging away men and women, committed them to prison.
4 Bada barreyatu içan ciradenac baçabiltzan hara huna, Iaincoaren hitza denunciatzen çutela.
They therefore that were dispersed, went about preaching the word of God.
5 Eta Philippec iautsiric Samariaco hiri batetara, predica ciecén Christ.
And Philip going down to the city of Samaria, preached Christ unto them.
6 Eta populua gogo batez behatzen çayon Philippec erraiten çuenari, ençuten eta ikusten cituztela eguiten cituen signoac.
And the people with one accord were attentive to those things which were said by Philip, hearing, and seeing the miracles which he did.
7 Ecen spiritu satsuác, heçaz eduquiten ciradenetaric anhitzetaric ilkiten ciraden, ocengui oihuz ceudela: eta anhitz paralytico eta maingu senda cedin.
For many of them who had unclean spirits, crying with a loud voice, went out.
8 Eta alegrança handi eguin cedin hiri hartan.
And many, taken with the palsy, and that were lame, were healed.
9 Eta Simon deitzen cen guiçombat cen, lehendanic hirian encantamenduz vsatzen çuenic, eta Samariaco populua encantatu çuenic, cioela bere buruäz cembeit personage handi cela.
There was therefore great joy in that city. Now there was a certain man named Simon, who before had been a magician in that city, seducing the people of Samaria, giving out that he was some great one:
10 Ceini behatzen baitzaizquión chipienetic handieneranoco guciac, cioitela, Haur da Iaincoaren verthute handi hura.
To whom they all gave ear, from the least to the greatest, saying: This man is the power of God, which is called great.
11 Eta hari beha çaizcan ceren dembora lucez encantamenduz adimendutaric erauci baitzituen.
And they were attentive to him, because, for a long time, he had bewitched them with his magical practices.
12 Baina Philippe sinhetsi çutenean, ceinec denuntiatzen baitzituen Iaincoaren resumari eta Iesus Christen icenari appertenitzen çaizcan gauçác, batheyatzen ciraden bay guiçonac bay emazteac.
But when they had believed Philip preaching of the kingdom of God, in the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
13 Eta Simonec berac-ere sinhets ceçan, eta batheyatuz gueroztic Philipperen aldetic etzén higuitzen: eta eguiten ciraden signoac eta verthuteac ikusten cituenean, spantatzen cen.
Then Simon himself believed also; and being baptized, he adhered to Philip. And being astonished, wondered to see the signs and exceeding great miracles which were done.
14 Eta ençun çutenean Ierusalemen ciraden Apostoluéc, nola Samariac recebitu çuen Iaincoaren hitza, igor citzaten hetara Pierris eta Ioannes.
Now when the apostles, who were in Jerusalem, had heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John.
15 Hauc hara iautsi içan ciradenean othoitz eguin ceçaten hecgatic, recebi leçatençát Spiritu saindua.
Who, when they were come, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost.
16 (Ecen oraino hetaric batetara-ere etzén iautsi içan, baina solament batheyatuac ciraden Iesus Iaunaren icenean)
For he was not as yet come upon any of them; but they were only baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
17 Guero paussa citzaten escuac hayén gainean, eta recebi ceçaten Spiritu saindua.
Then they laid their hands upon them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
18 Orduan ikussiric Simonec ecen Apostoluen escuen paussatzez emaiten cela Spiritu saindua, diru presenta ciecén.
And when Simon saw, that by the imposition of the hands of the apostles, the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,
19 Erraiten çuela, Indaçue niri-ere bothere hori, nori-ere escuac gainean paussaturen baitrautzat, recebi deçan Spiritu saindua.
Saying: Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I shall lay my hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost. But Peter said to him:
20 Baina Pierrisec erran cieçón, Hire diruä hirequin gal dadila, ceren estimatu baituc Iaincoaren dohaina dirutan conquestatzen dela.
Keep thy money to thyself, to perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.
21 Eztuc hic parteric ez heretageric eguiteco hunetan: ecen hire bihotza eztuc chuchen Iaincoaren aitzinean.
Thou hast no part nor lot in this matter. For thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
22 Emendadi bada eure malitia horretaric, eta Iaincoari othoitz eguióc, eya, aguian barka lequidianez eure bihotzeco pensamendua.
Do penance therefore for this thy wickedness; and pray to God, that perhaps this thought of thy heart may be forgiven thee.
23 Ecen behaçun gucizco karminean, eta iniquitatezco estecailluan aicela badiacussát.
For I see thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bonds of iniquity.
24 Orduan ihardesten çuela Simonec erran ceçan, Othoitz eguioçue çuec enegatic Iaunari, erran dituçuen gaucetaric batre guertha eztaquidançát,
Then Simon answering, said: Pray you for me to the Lord, that none of these things which you have spoken may come upon me.
25 Hec bada testificaturic eta denuntiaturic Iaunaren hitza, itzul citecen Ierusalemera, eta anhitz Samaritanoén burgutan Euangelioa predica ceçaten.
And they indeed having testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel to many countries of the Samaritans.
26 Guero Iaunaren Aingueruä minça cequión Philipperi, cioela, Iaiqui adi, eta habil Egu-erdi alderát, Ierusalemetic Gazara iausten den bidera: hura duc desert:
Now an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying: Arise, go towards the south, to the way that goeth down from Jerusalem into Gaza: this is desert.
27 Eta iaiquiric ioan cedin, eta huná, guiçon Ethiopiano Eunuchobat, Ethiopianoén reguina Candaceren azpian manamendu gucia çuenic, cein baitzén haren onhassun guciaren gaineco: eta ethorri içan cen adoratzera Ierusalemera:
And rising up, he went. And behold a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch, of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge over all her treasures, had come to Jerusalem to adore.
28 Eta itzultzen cen iarriric cegoela bere carriot gainean, eta iracurtzen çuen Esaias prophetá.
And he was returning, sitting in this chariot, and reading Isaias the prophet.
29 Orduan erran cieçón Spirituac Philipperi, Hurbil adi, eta hers aquio carriot horri.
And the Spirit said to Philip: Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
30 Eta Philippec laster eguinic ençun ceçan hura, iracurtzen çuela Esaias prophetá: eta erran cieçón, Baina aditzen duc iracurtzen duana?
And Philip running thither, heard him reading the prophet Isaias. And he said: Thinkest thou that thou understandest what thou readest?
31 Eta harc dio, Eta nola ahal neçaque, baldin norbeitec guida ezpaneça? Eta othoitz eguin cieçon Philipperi iganic iar ledin harequin.
Who said: And how can I, unless some man shew me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
32 Eta Scripturaco passage iracurtzen çuena, haur cen, Ardibat beçala heriotzera eraman içan da: eta nola bildots-bat motzen duenaren aitzinean mutu baita, hala eztu irequi vkan bere ahoa
And the place of the scripture which he was reading was this: He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb without voice before his shearer, so openeth he not his mouth.
33 Haren beheratzean haren iugemendua goratu içan da: baina haren irautea norc contaturen du? ecen altchatzen da lurretic haren vicia.
In humility his judgment was taken away. His generation who shall declare, for his life shall be taken from the earth?
34 Eta ihardesten ceraucala Eunuchoac Philipperi, erran ceçan, Othoitz eguiten drauat, norçaz Prophetác erraiten du haur? bere buruäz, ala cembeit bercez?
And the eunuch answering Philip, said: I beseech thee, of whom doth the prophet speak this? of himself, or of some other man?
35 Orduan irequiric Philippec bere ahoa eta hassiric Scriptura hunetaric denuntia cieçon Iesus.
Then Philip, opening his mouth, and beginning at this scripture, preached unto him Jesus.
36 Eta bidean ioaiten ciradela, ethor citecen vr batetara: orduan dio Eunuchoac, Huna vra: cerc empatchatzen nau batheyatu içatetic?
And as they went on their way, they came to a certain water; and the eunuch said: See, here is water: what doth hinder me from being baptized?
37 Eta erran ceçan Philippec, Baldin sinhesten baduc eure bihotz guciaz, ahal aite. Eta ihardesten çuela harc erran ceçan, Sinhesten diat Iaincoaren Semea dela Iesus Christ.
And Philip said: If thou believest with all thy heart, thou mayest. And he answering, said: I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
38 Eta mana ceçan carriota gueldin ledin: eta iauts citecen biac vrera, Philippe eta Eunuchoa: eta batheya ceçan hura.
And he commanded the chariot to stand still; and they went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch: and he baptized him.
39 Eta igan ciradenean vretic, Iaunaren Spirituac harrapa ceçan Philippe, eta guehiagoric etzeçan ikus hura Eunuchoac: eta bere bideaz ioaiten cen alegueraric.
And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord took away Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more. And he went on his way rejoicing.
40 Baina Philippe eriden cedin Azot-en: eta iragaitean predica ceçan Euangelioa hiri gucietan Cesareara hel leiteno.
But Philip was found in Azotus; and passing through, he preached the gospel to all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.
