Caeltueih 20
1 Olpungnah a paa van neh hnukbang rhoek te Paul loh a tah tih a hloep. A toidal tih Makedonia ah caeh hamla suntla.
Once the uproar had died down, Paul called the believers together and encouraged them. Then he said goodbye, and left for Macedonia.
2 Te rhoek pingpang a hil vaengah khaw amih te olka neh muep a thaphoh phoeiah Greek la pawk.
He passed through the area, sharing many words of encouragement with the believers there, and then traveled on to Greece.
3 Hla thum a om phoeiah Syria la kat ham cai dae Judah rhoek loh anih te mangtaengnah a khueh dongah Makedonia longah bal ham lungbuei om.
After he had spent three months there and just as he was about to sail to Syria, it was discovered that the Jews were plotting against him. So he decided to return through Macedonia.
4 Te vaengah anih te Berea kah Purrhu capa Sopataru, Thesaalonika kah Aristarkhu neh Sekundu, Derbi kah Kaiyu neh Thimothy, Asia kah Tukhiko neh Trophimu loh a puei uh.
These were the people who traveled with him: Sopater of Berea, the son of Pyrrhus; Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica; Gaius from Derbe; Timothy; Tychicus and Trophimus from the province of Asia.
5 Te rhoek loh lamhma uh tih Troas ah kaimih n'rhing uh.
They went on ahead and waited for us at Troas.
6 Kaimih tah vaidamding khohnin phoeiah Philipi lamkah ka kat uh tih, hnin nga khuiah Troas kah amih taengla ka pawk uh. Te ah te hnin rhih ka om uh.
After the Feast of Unleavened Bread we sailed from Philippi, and met them five days later in Troas, where we spent a week.

Paul was speaking on the first day of the week as we gathered together to break bread. He was planning to leave in the morning, and went on speaking until midnight.
8 Te vaengah ka tingtun nah imhman ah hmaiim muep om.
(The upstairs room where we were meeting was lit by many lamps.)
9 Te vaengah cadong pakhat, a ming ah Eutukhu tah bangbuet ah ngol. Paul kah a thui te a sen dongah a ih te muelh rhoi. Ih a rhoi vaengah imhman boengthum lamkah tla thuk tih a duek la a phoel uh.
A young man called Eutychus was sitting in the window, and he began feeling very sleepy. As Paul went on speaking he fell sound asleep and tumbled down from the third story. When they picked him up they found he was dead.
10 Paul khaw suntla tih anih te a bakop thil tih a sambai phoeiah, “Sarhingrhup la om uh boeh. A khuiah a hinglu om pueng,” a ti nah.
Paul went down, stretched himself out upon him, and hugged him. “Don't worry, he's alive,” he said.
11 A yoeng hang phoeiah vaidam te a aeh pah tih yulh a ten uh. Te phoeiah mincang duela a thui tih khoe uh.
Paul went back upstairs, broke bread, and ate together with them. He went on talking with them until dawn came, and then he left.
12 Tedae cadong te a hing la a khuen uh vaengkah a ngaimong uh te a phoeng mai moenih.
They took the young man home alive and well, and were very thankful for this.
13 Kaimih tah Asso la kat ham sangpho taengla ka lamhma uh. Te lamkah tah Paul te loh ham cai uh coeng. Amah khaw lan hamla a cai tangtae la a om coeng dongah a uen van coeng.
We went on ahead to the ship and sailed to Assos. There we were due to pick up Paul, since that was what he had planned as he decided to travel on foot.
14 Te dongah Asso ah ka humcui uh vaengah anih te ka loh uh tih Mitulene la ka pawk uh.
He did indeed meet us at Assos. We picked him up, and went on to Mitylene.
15 Te lamloh a vuen ah ka kat uh tih Khios rhalvangan ka pha uh. A vuen bal ah Samos te ka pha uh tih hnin at a om phoeiah Miletu la ka pawk uh.
Sailing on from there we arrived off Kios, and the next day we stopped briefly at Samos, and the following day we arrived at Miletus.
16 Paul tah Asia ah yulh a koe ham a om pawt dongah Ephisa te poeng ham mulmet uh. Pentekos hnin ah amah om thai atah tila Jerusalem pha ham te a rhingda.
Paul had planned to sail on past Ephesus so he wouldn't have to spend time in the province of Asia. He was keen to get to Jerusalem in time for the Day of Pentecost.
17 Te vaengah hlangboel kah a ham rhoek te Miletu lamloh Ephisa la a tah tih a khue.
From Miletus Paul sent a message to the elders of the church in Ephesus.
18 Te dongah a taengla ha pawk uh vaengah amih te, “Asia ah ka cawt khohnin lamhma lamloh ka om tue khuiah nangmih neh metla ka om khaw na ming uh.
When they arrived, he told them, “You know how I always behaved while I was with you from the first day I arrived in the province of Asia.
19 Tlayaenah, mikphi boeih neh Boeipa sal ka bi vaengah he Judah rhoek kah a mangtaengnah loh kai taengah noemcainah a thoeng sak.
I served the Lord in humility and in tears. I put up with the troubles and stress caused by the plots of the Jews.
20 Nangmih taengah puen ham pawt tih im takuem ah langya la nangmih thuituen ham tah aka rhoei rhoek taengah khaw ka tonga moenih.
However, I never held back from sharing with you anything that would be to your benefit, and I taught you in public, going from house to house.
21 Pathen taengah yutnah neh mamih Boeipa Jesuh ah tangnah khueh ham te Judah rhoek neh Greek rhoek taengah khaw ka laipai coeng.
I witnessed both to Jews and Greeks that it was essential to repent and turn to God, and to trust in our Lord Jesus Christ.
22 Tedae Jerusalem la caeh ham ni Mueihla loh kai m'pin coeng he. Te ah te kai taengah aka thoeng ham khaw ka ming pawh.
Now the Spirit is insisting that I go to Jerusalem, and I have no idea what will happen to me there.
23 Tedae hloong neh phacipphabaem loh kai n'naeh thil te Mueihla Cim loh kai ham kho takuem ah laipai tih a thui.
All I know is that in every city I visit the Holy Spirit warns me that prison and suffering are waiting for me.
24 Pathen kah lungvatnah olthangthen te laipai puei tih, Boeipa Jesuh taengkah ka dang bibi neh ka hmatoeng khah hamla ka hinglu lungthen pataeng ol hong lam ni ka khueh coeng.
But I don't consider my life as worth anything to me. I only want to finish my mission and the ministry that the Lord Jesus gave to me, to witness to the good news of the grace of God.
25 Ram te hoe ham ka hil he a khuiah nangmih loh kai maelhmai boeih na hmu uh voel mahpawh tila ka ming ngawn coeng he.
Now I am certain that you will not see my face again, you among whom I shared the news of the kingdom.
26 Te dongah hlang boeih kah a thii lamloh a caih la ka om te tihnin khohnin ah nangmih ham ka laipai coeng.
So I declare to you today that I am not responsible if anyone is lost.
27 Pathen kah mangtaengnah te nangmih taengah boeih ka thui mahnim? Te dongah ka tonga moenih.
I didn't hesitate to tell you everything God wants you to know.
28 Namamih neh boiva boeih te khaw ngaithuen uh. Te khuiah nangmih tah Pathen kah hlangboel, a thii neh a kutloh te dawndah ham Mueihla Cim loh hiphoelkung la n'khueh coeng.
Take care of yourselves and of all the flock, which the Holy Spirit has given to you to supervise. Feed the Lord's church which he bought with his own blood.
29 Ka caehnah hnukah nangmih taengla uithang aka tlung te ha kun vetih boiva khaw hlun mahpawh tila ka ming.
I know that after I leave vicious wolves will come among you, and won't spare the flock.
30 Te vaengah nangmih khui lamkah namah rhoek ha phoe ni. Hnukbang rhoek te amah hnukla mawt ham paimaelh ol a thui ni.
From among your own group men will rise up perverting what is right and good so they can lead believers to follow them.
31 Te dongah hak uh laeh. Kum thum khuiah, khoyin khothaih mikphi neh toeng mueh la pakhat rhip kan rhalrhing sak te poek uh.
So watch out! Don't forget that for three years I went on instructing all of you night and day, often crying over you.
32 A lungvatnah olka dongah hlinsai thai ham neh a ciim tangtae rhoek boeih khuiah rho phaeng ham khaw Pathen taengah nangmih kan tloeng coeng he.
Now I commit you in God's care and to the message of his grace, which is able to build you up and provide you with the inheritance that belongs to all who are kept right with him.
33 Tangka khaw, sui khaw, pueinak khaw ka nai moenih.
I never had any desire for anyone's silver or gold or clothing.
34 Kamah neh ka taengkah aka om rhoek kah a ngoengaih dongah ka kut loh a bi te khaw na ming uh.
You know that I worked with my own hands to provide for my own needs, as well as for those who were with me.
35 Tattloel rhoek bomcen ham a kuek dongah ka thakthae te khaw nangmih taengah boeih kan tueng coeng. Te dongah Boeipa Jesuh amah loh, “N' dang lakah m'paek dongah yoethen om ngai,” a ti olka te poek ham om.
I have given you an example in everything: work to help those who are weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
36 He he a thui phoeiah a khuklu a cungkueng tih amih boeih te a thangthui puei.
When he finished speaking, he kneeled down and prayed with all of them.
37 Te vaengkah hlang boeih te a rhah neh boeih om uh. Paul kah a rhawn te a kop thil uh tih a mok uh.
They all wept as they hugged and kissed him.
38 Olpuei la a mikhmai hmuh ham om voel mahpawh tila a thui ol loh hlang boeih a yuek. Te phoeiah anih te sangpho taengla a thak uh.
What upset them the most was what he said about never seeing him again... Then they walked down to the ship with him.
