< Acts 14 >

1 And it came to pass in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake that a great multitude of both Jews and Greeks believed.
Na i Ikoniuma ka haere tahi raua ki roto ki te whare karakia o nga Hurai, a ka korero, no ka whakapono tona tini o nga Hurai, o nga Kariki.
2 But the Jews who did not believe stirred up the minds of [those of] the nations and made [them] evil-affected against the brethren.
Na nga Hurai whakateka ia i whakaoho, i whakakino nga ngakau o nga Tauiwi ki nga teina.
3 They stayed therefore a good while, speaking boldly, [confiding] in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace, giving signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Na he nui te wa i noho ai raua i reira, i maia ai te korero i nga mea a te Ariki, nana i whakaae te kupu o tona aroha noa, me te homai ano e ia nga tohu me nga mea whakamiharo kia meatia e o raua ringa.
4 And the multitude of the city was divided, and some were with the Jews and some with the apostles.
Otiia i wehewehea nga tangata o te pa: ko etahi i u ki nga Hurai, ko etahi ki nga apotoro.
5 And when an assault was making, both of [those of] the nations and [the] Jews with their rulers, to use [them] ill and stone them,
A, i nga Tauiwi ratou ko nga Hurai, ko o ratou rangatira hoki e huaki ana ki te whakatupu kino, ki te aki i a raua ki te kohatu,
6 they, being aware of it, fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the surrounding country,
Ka tupato raua, a rere ana ki Raihitara, ki Rerepe, ki nga pa o Raikaonia, ki pahaki tata atu ano hoki:
7 and there they were announcing the glad tidings.
A kauwhautia ana e raua te rongopai ki reira.
8 And a certain man in Lystra, impotent in his feet, sat, [being] lame from his mother's womb, who had never walked.
I Raihitara hoki e noho ana tetahi tangata waewae ngoikore, he kopa no te kopu mai o tona whaea, kahore i haere i mua iho.
9 This [man] heard Paul speaking, who, fixing his eyes on him, and seeing that he had faith to be healed,
I rongo tenei i a Paora e korero ana: ko te tirohanga putanga atu o tera ki a ia, ka kite he whakapono tona e ora ai;
10 said with a loud voice, Rise up straight upon thy feet: and he sprang up and walked.
He nui noa atu tona reo ki te karanga atu, E tu ou waewae ki runga. Na mokowhiti ake ana ia, haere ana.
11 But the crowds, who saw what Paul had done, lifted up their voices in Lycaonian, saying, The gods, having made themselves like men, are come down to us.
No te kitenga o nga tangata i ta Paora i mea ai, ka ara to ratou reo, ka mea i te reo o Raikaonia, Kua heke iho nga atua ki a tatou, no nga tangata te ahua.
12 And they called Barnabas Jupiter, and Paul Mercury, because he took the lead in speaking.
A huaina ana e ratou a Panapa ko Hupita, a Paora ko Merekurai, no te mea ko ia te pu korero.
13 And the priest of Jupiter who was before the city, having brought bulls and garlands to the gates, would have done sacrifice along with the crowds.
Na ka kawea mai e te tohunga o Hupita, i te ngutu nei o te pa tona temepara, he puru, he tupare ki nga kuwaha, ka mea kia patua he whakahere e ratou ko nga mano.
14 But the apostles Barnabas and Paul, having heard [it], rent their garments, and rushed out to the crowd, crying
Otira, i te rongonga o nga apotoro, o Panapa raua ko Paora, ka haehae i o raua kakahu, a rere ana ki roto ki nga tangata, ka karanga atu,
15 and saying, Men, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, preaching to you to turn from these vanities to the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things in them;
Ka mea, E mara ma, he aha koutou ka mea ai i enei mea? he tangata ano maua, he rite tahi ki a koutou te tu, e kauwhau ana hoki i te rongopai, kia tahuri ke koutou i enei mea tekateka noa ki te Atua ora, nana nei i hanga te rangi me te whenua, te moana me o reira mea katoa:
16 who in the past generations suffered all the nations to go in their own ways,
I nga whakatupuranga hoki kua pahemo atu, i tukua e ia nga iwi katoa kia haere i o ratou ake ara.
17 though indeed he did not leave himself without witness, doing good, and giving to you from heaven rain and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.
Otiia kihai i tukua e ia kia kahore he kaiwhakaatu mona; i atawhai hoki ia, i homai ano e ia ki a koutou te ua o te rangi, me nga po hua, i makona ai o koutou ngakau i te kai, i te koa.
18 And saying these things, they with difficulty kept the crowds from sacrificing to them.
A ka korerotia enei kupu, na mutu whakauaua i a raua te mea a nga tangata ki te patu whakahere ma raua.
19 But there came Jews from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds and stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing him to have died.
Otira ka haere mai etahi Hurai i Anatioka, i Ikoniuma: a ka whakakiki ratou i nga mano a akina ana a Paora ki te kohatu, toia ana ki waho o te pa, hua noa kua mate.
20 But while the disciples encircled him, he rose up and entered into the city. And on the morrow he went away with Barnabas to Derbe.
Otiia i nga akonga e tu ana i tona taha, ka whakatika ia, haere ana ki roto ki te pa: a i te aonga ake ka haere raua ko Panapa ki Rerepe.
21 And having announced the glad tidings to that city, and having made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, and Iconium, and Antioch,
A, no ka kauwhau raua i te rongopai ki taua pa, a he tokomaha ka meinga hei akonga, ka hoki raua ki Raihitara, ki Ikoniuma, ki Anatioka;
22 establishing the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to abide in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.
Whakau ana i nga wairua o nga akonga, whakahau ana i a ratou kia mau tonu ki te whakapono, kua takoto hoki te tikanga, me na runga i nga matenga maha he ara atu mo tatou ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.
23 And having chosen them elders in each assembly, having prayed with fastings, they committed them to the Lord, on whom they had believed.
A, no ka whakaritea e raua he kaumatua mo ratou i tenei hahi, i tenei hahi, me te inoi ano raua, me te nohopuku, ka tukua atu ratou e raua ki te Ariki, i whakapono nei ratou.
24 And having passed through Pisidia they came to Pamphylia,
Na ka ka haere raua na waenganui o Pihiria, tae tonu atu ki Pamapuria.
25 and having spoken the word in Perga, they came down to Attalia;
A ka oti te kauwhau e raua te kupu ki Pereka, na ka haere raua ki raro ki Ataria.
26 and thence they sailed away to Antioch, whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.
A rere atu ana i reira ki Anatioka, ki te wahi i tukua ai raua ki te aroha noa o te Atua, mo te mahi ka oti nei i a raua.
27 And having arrived, and having brought together the assembly, they related to them all that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the nations.
Na ka tae raua, ka huihuia te hahi, ka korerotia nga mea i mahi tahi ai te Atua me raua, ko tana uakanga hoki i te tatau o te whakapono ki nga Tauiwi.
28 And they stayed no little time with the disciples.
A kihai i iti te wa i noho ai raua i reira ki nga akonga.
