Guncei 16
1 Hathnukkhu hoi Pawl teh Derbi kho hoi Lustra kho a pha. Listra kho dawk Timote telah a min poe e a hnukkâbang buet touh ao. Ahnie a manu teh ka yuem e Judah tami napui buet touh doeh, a na pa teh Grik tami doeh.
And he came also to Derbe and to Lystra: and behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewess that believed; but his father was a Greek.
2 Ahni teh Listra lahoi, Ikonium kho dawk kaawm e hmaunawnghanaw thung bari kamcu e lah ao.
The same was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium.
3 Pawl ni Timote hrawi hanelah a ngai. Ahnie a na pa Jentel tami tie hote hmuen koe kaawm e Judah tami pueng ni a panue awh dawk vuensom a a pouh awh.
Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and he took and circumcised him because of the Jews that were in those parts: for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
4 Ahnimouh teh khopuinaw koe yuengyoe a cei awh navah, Jerusalem kho dawk kaawm e gunceinaw hoi pastornaw lawk a poe e naw hah kayuemnaw tarawi hanelah a poe awh.
And as they went on their way through the cities, they delivered them the decrees to keep which had been ordained of the apostles and elders that were at Jerusalem.
5 Hottelah kawhmounnaw teh yuemnae dawk kacaklah ao teh, hnin touh hnukkhu hnin touh a pung awh.
So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and increased in number daily.
6 Frigia ram, Galati ram lah a cei awh hnukkhu Asia ram dawk lawkkatang hah dei hoeh hanelah Kathoung Muitha ni a ngang dawkvah,
And they went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been forbidden of the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia;
7 Misia ram lah a pha awh teh, Bitunia ram lah cei han ati awh navah, Muitha ni kâ a poe hoeh dawkvah,
and when they were come over against Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia; and the Spirit of Jesus suffered them not;
8 Misia ram a tengpam a cei awh teh, Troas kho a pha awh.
and passing by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
9 Tangmin vah Pawl koe vision a kamnue. Masidonia tami buet touh ni a kangdue teh, Masidonia ram lah raka nateh, kaimouh na kabawm haw telah a kâhei.
And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: There was a man of Macedonia standing, beseeching him, and saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.
10 Hote vision a hmu nah, Masidonia ram dawk kamthang kahawi dei sak hanelah Bawipa ni kaimouh na kaw awh toe telah hnâ ka bo awh teh, hote ram koe lah cei hanelah tang ka kâcai awh.
And when he had seen the vision, straightway we sought to go forth into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel unto them.
11 Hatdawkvah, Troas kho hoi long hoi ka cei awh teh Samotaret tuilum koe lah kuekluek ka cei awh teh, a tangtho vah Neapolis khovah ka pha awh.
Setting sail therefore from Troas, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and the day following to Neapolis;
12 Hote kho dawk hoi bout ka tâco awh teh Masidonia ram thung kaawm e Filippi khopui ka pha awh teh dongdeng hnin ka saw lah ka o awh.
and from thence to Philippi, which is a city of Macedonia, the first of the district, a [Roman] colony: and we were in this city tarrying certain days.
13 Sabbath hnin vah kaimouh kho alawilah ka tâco awh teh ratoumnae hmuen ao han mue telah ka pouk awh teh tuipui rai lah ka cei awh. Hote hmuen koe ka tahung awh teh napuinaw hanlah ka dei pouh awh.
And on the sabbath day we went forth without the gate by a river side, where we supposed there was a place of prayer; and we sat down, and spake unto the women that were come together.
14 Hatnavah hnipaling kâyawt e Tiatira kho e Lidia telah a kaw awh e napui, Cathut ka bawk e buet touh ao. Pawl ni a dei e phung lawk hah sairasuepcalah a thai nahan Cathut ni a lungthin tho a paawng pouh.
And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one that worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened to give heed unto the things which were spoken by Paul.
15 Hote napui teh a imthungkhunaw hoi Baptisma a coe hnukkhu, kai hah Bawipa koe yuemkamcu e tami lah na pouk awh pawiteh, kai im kâen nateh awm awh ei telah a kâhei teh kaimanaw koe na dei pouh awh.
And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide [there]. And she constrained us.
16 Hathnukkhu hoi kaimouh teh ratoumnae im koe ka cei awh navah hmalah han ka dei thai e, a thung kahrai kaawm e napui hoi ka kâhmo awh. Hote napui teh amae a bawipanaw hane ahawinae moi ka sak e lah ao.
And it came to pass, as we were going to the place of prayer, that a certain maid having a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by soothsaying.
17 Hote napui ca teh Pawl hoi kaimae hnuklah a kâbang teh ahnimouh teh kalenpounge Cathut e kamthang lawk rungngangnae lawk ka dei e doeh telah a hram.
The same following after Paul and us cried out, saying, These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim unto you the way of salvation.
18 Hottelah, napuica ni a ngelawn dawkvah, Pawl ni a kamlang sin teh Jisuh Khrih min lahoi nang teh tâcawt telah kâ na poe. Hat nah tahma vah a thung hoi kahrai teh tang a tâco toe.
And this she did for many days. But Paul, being sore troubled, turned and said to the spirit, I charge thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And it came out that very hour.
19 Ahnie bawinaw ni a bawireng thai nahanelah ngaihawinae awmhoeh toe tie a panue torei teh Pawl hoi Silas hah a man awh teh khobawinaw koe a thak awh.
But when her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they laid hold on Paul and Silas, and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers,
20 Khobawinaw koe a pha roi toteh hetnaw hah Judah taminaw law pawiteh maimae khopui rucat a poe awh.
and when they had brought them unto the magistrates, they said, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,
21 Rom tami lah kaawm e maimanaw ni yuem hoeh han e, tawk hoeh hane phunglawknaw a cangkhai awh telah ati awh.
and set forth customs which it is not lawful for us to receive, or to observe, being Romans.
22 Kamkhueng e taminaw ni ahnimouh koe lah tang a kampangkhai awh teh Pawl hoi Silas hah a taran awh. Khobawinaw ni ahnimae angki a rading pouh teh ruitaboung hoi hem sak hanelah kâ a poe.
And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent their garments off them, and commanded to beat them with rods.
23 A hem awh teh, hmâtan a ca awh. Kahawicalah ring awh telah thongim kaukkung koe kâ a poe teh thongim thung a paung awh.
And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:
24 Hottelah lawkthui e patetlah thongim kaukkung ni thongim thung a paen teh a khok hlong a buet pouh awh.
who, having received such a charge, cast them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.
25 Karumsaning Pawl hoi Silas teh Cathut koe ratoum laihoi Cathut a pholen roi. Thongim ka bawt e naw ni hai a thai pouh awh.
But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns unto God, and the prisoners were listening to them;
26 Pouk laipalah Tâlî puenghoi a no dawkvah thongim a kâhuet. Takhangnaw koung a kamawng. Thongkabawtnaw pâkhinae sumrui pueng pak a ca pouh.
and suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison-house were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened; and every one’s bands were loosed.
27 Thongim kaukkung a kâhlaw teh thongim takhangnaw a kamawng e a hmu navah thongim kamungnaw koung a yawng awh mue toe telah a pouk dawkvah tahloi hoi amahoima kâthei hanelah a kâcai.
And the jailor, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.
28 Hatei Pawl niyah namahoima runae kâpoe hanh, kaimanaw hete hmuen koe be ka o awh telah kacaipounglah a dei pouh.
But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.
29 Hattoteh thongim a kaukkung ni hmaito hoi yawng laihoi a kâen teh Pawl hoi Silas e hmalah pâyaw laihoi a tabo.
And he called for lights and sprang in, and, trembling for fear, fell down before Paul and Silas,
30 Hathnukkhu ahnimouh roi alawilah a tâcokhai teh ka bawipa, rungngang lah o thai nahanlah bangmaw ka sak han ti teh a pacei.
and brought them out and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31 Ahnimouh roi ni Bawipa Jisuh Khrih hah yuem haw. Hottelah na yuem pawiteh nama hoi na imthungnaw rungngang lah na o awh han atipouh roi.
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, thou and thy house.
32 Hathnukkhu ama hoi a imthungkhu dawk kaawm e naw pueng koe Bawipa e lawk hah a dei pouh roi.
And they spake the word of the Lord unto him, with all that were in his house.
33 Thongim kaukkung ni hatnae tangmin vah ahnimanaw hah a hrawi teh, a hmâtannaw tâsi a hluk pouh. Hathnukkhu ama hoi a imthungkhu naw abuemlah baptisma koung a coe awh.
And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, immediately.
34 Ahni ni Pawl hoi Silas hah ama im a kaw teh, rawca a pacapanei teh, imthung abuemlahoi Cathut a yuem awh dawkvah a konawm awh.
And he brought them up into his house, and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly, with all his house, having believed in God.
35 Khodai toteh khobawinaw ni, ram karingkungnaw a patoun teh, ahnimanaw hah tha awh leih atipouh awh.
But when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.
36 Hatnavah thongim kaukkung ni hote kamthang hah Pawl koe a dei pouh. Khobawinaw ni tami a patoun awh teh, nangmanaw hah tha hanelah lawk na thui awh. Hatdawkvah, atu tâcawt awh nateh lungmawngcalah cet awh lawih atipouh.
And the jailor reported the words to Paul, [saying], The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore come forth, and go in peace.
37 Hatei Pawl ni ram ka ring e naw koe Rom tami lah kaawm e kaimanaw hah akungkhei laipalah taminaw hmalah na hem awh teh, thongim thung na paung awh hnukkhu, atu kaimanaw hah arulahoi maw na tha awh han vaw. Hottelah ti kawi na maw. Amamouh kuekluek tho awh naseh, kaimouh na rasat awh naseh atipouh
But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men that are Romans, and have cast us into prison; and do they now cast us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and bring us out.
38 Hattoteh ram karingkungnaw ni hote lawknaw hah khobawinaw koe a dei pouh awh. Ahnimouh roi teh Rom tami roi doeh tie a panue awh torei teh, a taki awh dawkvah,
And the serjeants reported these words unto the magistrates: and they feared when they heard that they were Romans;
39 amamouh kuekluek a tho awh teh a kâhei awh. Hathnukkhu a tâco sak awh teh, hote kho thung hoi tâco hanelah a kâhei awh.
and they came and besought them; and when they had brought them out, they asked them to go away from the city.
40 Ahnimouh hai thongim thung hoi a tâco awh toteh, Lidia im a cei awh teh, hmaunawnghanaw hoi a kâhmo awh. Ahnimouh thapoelawknaw a dei pouh hnukkhu alouklah a cei awh.
And they went out of the prison, and entered into [the house of] Lydia: and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
