< Acts 14 >

1 In Iconium, they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke that a great multitude both of Jews and of Greeks believed.
Ikoniam a pha vaengah Judah rhoek kah tunim la kun rhoi tih a thui bal dongah Judah neh Greek rhaengpuei te yet loh a tangnah uh.
2 But the disbelieving Jews stirred up and embittered the souls of the Gentiles against the brothers.
Te vaengah olaek Judah rhoek loh namtom kah a hinglu te a cahoeh pa uh tih manuca rhoek te a hnaep uh.
3 Therefore they stayed there a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who testified to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Te dongah Boeipa ham sayalh la a tue puet a loh rhoi tih a lungvatnah ol te a phong. Miknoek neh khobae rhambae amih rhoi kut neh saii ham a paek.
4 But the multitude of the city was divided. Part sided with the Jews and part with the apostles.
Tedae kho khuikah rhaengpuei tah paek uh thae tih, hlangvang loh Judah rhoek taengah, hlangvang loh caeltueih rhoek taengah om uh.
5 When some of both the Gentiles and the Jews, with their rulers, made a violent attempt to mistreat and stone them,
Te vaengah amih rhoi neet ham neh dae hamla namtom rhoek khaw, Judah rhoek neh a boei rhoek khaw thathohnah a khueh.
6 they became aware of it and fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra, Derbe, and the surrounding region.
A yaak uh vaengah Lukaonia kho rhoek, Lustra neh Derbe pingpang la yong uh tih,
7 There they preached the Good News.
olthangthen aka phong la pahoi om uh.
8 At Lystra a certain man sat, impotent in his feet, a cripple from his mother’s womb, who never had walked.
Lustra ah tattloel hlang pakhat tah a kho dongah sut ngol. Anih tah a manu bung lamkah khawn coeng tih a pongpa noek moenih.
9 He was listening to Paul speaking, who, fastening eyes on him and seeing that he had faith to be made whole,
Anih long khaw Paul kah a thui te a hnatun. Anih te Paul loh a hmaitang hatah a hoeih hamla tangnah a khueh te a hmuh.
10 said with a loud voice, “Stand upright on your feet!” He leaped up and walked.
Te dongah ol ue la, “Na kho dongah a dueng la pai,” a ti nah. Te daengah dawm soi tih cet.
11 When the multitude saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice, saying in the language of Lycaonia, “The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!”
Paul kah a saii te hlangping loh a hmuh uh vaengah a ol a huel uh tih Lukaonia ol neh, “Pathen rhoi tah hlang la ha saa uh tih mamih taengla ha rhum rhoi coeng,” a ti uh.
12 They called Barnabas “Jupiter”, and Paul “Mercury”, because he was the chief speaker.
Paul tah olka neh aka poek la a om dongah Barnabas te Zeus, Paul te khaw Hermes a sui uh.
13 The priest of Jupiter, whose temple was in front of their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and would have made a sacrifice along with the multitudes.
Kho taengah aka om Zeus khosoih long khaw hmueih nawn ham a ngaih dongah vaito neh rhaihulh te vongka kah hlangping taengla hang khuen.
14 But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of it, they tore their clothes and sprang into the multitude, crying out,
Tedae caeltueih rhoi Barnabas neh Paul loh a yaak rhoi vaengah a himbai te a phen rhoi phoeiah hlangping te a muk rhoi tih pang rhoi.
15 “Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men of the same nature as you, and bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to the living God, who made the sky, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them;
Te vaengah, “Ka hlang rhoek aw hekah he bahamlae na saii uh. Kaimih rhoi khaw nangmih bangla hlang van boeiloeih ni. A honghi lamloh aka hing Pathen taengla na bal uh ham ni nangmih taengah olthangthen thui la a om. Amah loh vaan neh diklai, tuitunli neh a khuikah aka om boeih khaw a saii.
16 who in the generations gone by allowed all the nations to walk in their own ways.
Khum tangtae rhuirhong khuiah khaw namtom boeih te amah loh a longpuei ah pongpa sak ham a khueh.
17 Yet he did not leave himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you rains from the sky and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.”
Te vaengah a then saii te a hlahpham tih amah kawng te a bil moenih. Khoning vaengah a thaitak la nangmih taengah vaan rhotui khaw m'paek dongah ni na thinko te buh neh omngaihnah neh a hah,” a ti nah rhoi.
18 Even saying these things, they hardly stopped the multitudes from making a sacrifice to them.
Hnaeng hnaeng a thui rhoi long te ni amih rhoi taengah hmueih ngawn pawt ham hlangping te a duem sak pueng.
19 But some Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there, and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.
Te vaengah Antiok neh Ikonium lamkah aka pawk Judah rhoek loh hlangping te a yoek tih Paul te a dae uh. Anih te duek coini tila a poek uh dongah khopuei vongvoel la a mawt uh.
20 But as the disciples stood around him, he rose up, and entered into the city. On the next day he went out with Barnabas to Derbe.
Tedae anih te hnukbang rhoek loh a vael uh vaengah thoo tih khopuei khuila kun. A vuen ah Barnabas neh Derbe la cet rhoi.
21 When they had preached the Good News to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch,
Olthangthen a phong uh loh khopuei te muep a bang sak phoeiah Lustra, Ikonium neh Antiok la bal uh.
22 strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many afflictions we must enter into God’s Kingdom.
Hnukbang rhoek kah a hinglu te a thoh phoeiah, “Tangnah dongah ngol pai thai ham neh Pathen ram khuiah kun ham he mamih loh phacip phabaem muep tong ham a kuek, “tila a hloep.
23 When they had appointed elders for them in every assembly, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord on whom they had believed.
Hlangboel takuem ah amamih kah a ham la a coelh rhoek te khaw yaehnah neh thangthui uh tih aka tangnah te Boeipa amah taengah taengah a nawn uh.
24 They passed through Pisidia and came to Pamphylia.
Te phoeiah Pisidia te a paan rhoi tih Pamphylia la pawk rhoi.
25 When they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.
Perga ah olka a thui rhoi tih Attalia la suntla rhoi.
26 From there they sailed to Antioch, from where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.
Te lamkah loh Antiok la kat rhoi. Te lamloh bibi coeng sak ham Pathen kah lungvatnah dongah tloeng la om coeng.
27 When they had arrived and had gathered the assembly together, they reported all the things that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the nations.
A pha rhoi vaengah hlangboel te a cului tih Pathen loh amih rhoi taengah a saii boeih neh namtom rhoek ham tangnah thohka a ong pah te a puen pah.
28 They stayed there with the disciples for a long time.
Tedae hnukbang rhoek taengah a tue a loh rhoi khaw yool van pawh.
