Acts 15
1 Then some men arrived from Judea who started teaching the believers, “Unless you're circumcised according to the rules set down by Moses, you can't be saved.”
A AKAI me kodido sang Iudäa, ap padaki ong saulang kan: Ma komail sota sirkomsais duen tiak en Moses, komail sota pan kak maurela.
2 Paul and Barnabas had many arguments and debates with them. So Paul and Barnabas and some others were appointed to go to Jerusalem and talk to the apostles and leaders there about this issue.
A irail lao liak toror pasang o akakamai ong Paulus o Parnapas, re ap inauki pena, me Paulus i Parnapas, o pil akai irail en kotidalang Ierusalem ren wanporon o saunkoa kan pweki mepukat.
3 The church sent them on their way, and as they traveled through Phoenicia and Samaria, they explained how foreigners were being converted, which made all the believers very happy.
Momodisou ap likid ir wei lao ekis wasa. Irail ap weweid nan Pönisien o Samaria o kasokasoiada duen en men liki ar wukila. Irail ari kaperenda melel saulang kan karos.
4 When they arrived in Jerusalem they were welcomed by the church members, the apostles, and the elders. They explained everything God had done through them.
Irail lao lel Ierusalem, momodisou o wanporon, o saunkoa kan ap kasamo ir. Irail ap katitiki meakan, me Kot kotin wiaki irail er.
5 But they were opposed by some of the believers who belonged to the Pharisee faction. They said, “These converts have to be circumcised, and instructed to observe the law of Moses.”
A akai kisan pwin en Parisär, me saulangalar, me uda indada: Me pung, en sirkomsais ir ala, o kapi ong irail, en wiawia kapung en Moses.
6 The apostles and elders met together to discuss the issue.
A wanporon o saunkoa kan pokon pena, pwen kaparok duen met.
7 After much debate, Peter stood up and said to them, “Brothers, you know that some time ago God chose me from among you so that the foreigners could hear the message of good news and trust in Jesus.
Irail lao kapukapung pena warailar, Petrus ap kotida masani ong irail: Ri ai kan, komail asa, me mas o Kot kotin pil ia dar sang nan pung omail, pwe men liki kan en ronga sang nan au ai masan en rongamau o posonla.
8 God, who knows thewhat we're thinking, has shown that he accepts them, giving them the Holy Spirit just as he did to us.
A Kot me kotin ereki mongiong en aramas, kotin kadede irail o kotiki ong irail Ngen saraui dueta kitail,
9 He doesn't make any distinction between us and them—he cleansed their thoughts as they trusted in him.
O a sota kotin wiada irair eu nan pung en kitail o irail ni a kotin kamakel mongiong arail ki poson.
10 So why do you want to oppose God and put a burden on the believers that our fathers weren't able to bear, and we can't either?
Ari, da me komail kasongesongki Kot, en kidang pon pop en tounpadak kan lopu eu, me sam atail akan o pil kitail sota kak wa.
11 We're convinced that we're saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way they are.”
A kitail kin kamekamelele, me kitail pan kamaureki mak en Kaun Iesus Kristus dueta irail.
12 Everyone listened attentively to Barnabas and Paul as they explained the miraculous signs that God had performed through them among the foreigners.
A pokon o nenenlata o rongerong en Parnapas i Paulus ara katiti duen manaman oko o kilel kai, me Kot kotin wia kidar lim ara nan pung en men liki kan.
13 After they had finished speaking, James spoke up, saying, “Brothers, listen to me.
Irail lao nenenlar, Iakopus ap kaparok masanida: Ri ai kan komail rong ia!
14 Simon has described how God first revealed his concern for the foreigners by taking from them a people committed to him.
Simon me kasoiada duen en Kot a kotin pwara dong men liki kan ni tapi o pwen pili sang irail kainok eu ong mar a.
15 This is in accordance with the words of the prophets, as it's written,
Pwe iduen masan en saukop akan duen a intingidi:
16 ‘In the future I will return, and I will rebuild the fallen house of David; I will rebuild its ruins and set it straight.
Murin mepukat I pan puredo o kawiliakapada im en Dawid, me rongki pasanger, o pur ong kauada wasa me olar.
17 I will do this so that those who are left may come to the Lord, including the foreigners who call on my name.
Pwe luan aramas akan en raparapaki Kaun o, pil men liki kan, me wan ad ai, iei me Kaun o masaniadar, me kin kotin wiawia.
Mepukat me lolok sang ni tapi o. (aiōn g165)
19 So my decision is that we shouldn't make it difficult for foreigners who turn to God.
Ari iet me i kasauiada, kitail ender katoutoui irail me wuki ong Kot sang ren men liki kan.
20 We should write to them and tell them to avoid food sacrificed to idols, sexual immorality, meat of animals that have been strangled, and from consuming blood.
A sen intinge wong irail, ren liki sang kasaut en kot mal akan, o nenek, o man mopelar akan, o nta.
21 For the law of Moses has been taught in every town for a long, long time—it's read in the synagogues every Sabbath.”
Pwe sang mas kokodo saunkawewe en Moses kin mi nan kanim karos, pwe re kin padapadak duen i nan sinakoke kan ni ran en sapat akan karos.
22 Then the apostles and elders, together with the whole church, decided it would be good to choose some representatives and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They chose Judas Barsabbas and Silas, leaders among the brothers,
Wanporon o saunkoa kan, o momodisou ap maukidar, en pilada ol akai sang ar pokon o porone ira wei iang Paulus i Parnapas, en kotila Antiokien: Iudas, me pil ad a Parnapas o Silas, ol pukat, me kaun pan saulang kan.
23 and sent them with this letter: “Greetings from us, the apostles and elders and brothers, to the non-Jewish brothers in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia:
A iet eten, me re intingiedier ap kadar wong irail: Iet kit wanporon o saunkoa kan o saulang kan kadar wong komail, ri at akan, me ko sang ren men liki kan nan Antiokien, o Sirien, o Sisilia at ranamau.
24 We have heard that some from our group have confused you with their teachings, causing you trouble. We certainly didn't tell them to do this!
Aki at ronger, me akai, me koiei sang re at, kin kaponepone kin ngen omail ar padak kan ni ar kasapunge komail lar indada: Komail en sirkomsais o kapwaiada kapung o; a se sota ki ong irail kusoned akan.
25 So we have agreed to choose some representatives and send them to you together with our much-loved brothers Barnabas and Paul,
Kit ap wiaki eu ni at maukidar en piladar ol akai, ap kadar wong komail iangaki kompoke pat Parnapas o Paulus.
26 who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ol oko me tonmeteki maur ara ong mar en Kaun Iesus Kristus.
27 So we are sending to you Judas and Silas who can verbally confirm what we're saying.
Kit ari kadar wei Iudas o Silas, me pil pan kasoi ong komail mepukat.
28 It seemed best to the Holy Spirit and to us not to place on you any heavier burden than these important requirements.
Pwe Ngen saraui o kit kin kupukupura, me mau, se ender ki ong komail eu lopu; mepukat eta me kasampwal:
29 You should avoid: anything sacrificed to idols; blood; meat from strangled animals; and sexual immorality. You will do well to observe these requirements. God bless you.”
Komail liki sang uduk, me mairong ong kot likam, o nta, o man mopelar, o nenek. Ma komail liki sang mepukat, nan komail kin wiawia me mau. Ran kaselel!
30 The men were sent on their way to Antioch. When they arrived they called everybody together and delivered the letter.
Irail lao pakadarala, ap kotilang Antiokien, re ap kapokon ir pena, ki ong irail kisin likau o.
31 After they had read it, the people were so happy for the encouraging message.
Irail lao wadoker, ap peren kidar kamait parail.
32 Judas and Silas, who were also prophets, encouraged the brothers, explaining many things, and strengthening them.
A Iudas i Silas, me pil saukop oko panaui kin saulang kan kasoi toto o pil katinai ir ada.
33 After spending some time there they were sent back by the brothers with their blessing to the believers in Jerusalem.
Irail mi wasa o lao ran akai, ap pakadarala popol sang ren saulang kan, pwe ren kola ren me kadar ira ala.
35 But Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch, teaching and proclaiming the word of God along with many others.
A Paulus i Parnapas kotikoteta Antiokien, kawewedar o padapadaki masan en Kaun o, o me toto pil iang.
36 Some time later Paul said to Barnabas, “Let's go back and visit the believers in every town where we shared the word of the Lord, and see how they're doing.”
Kadekadeo murin ran akai Paulus masani on Parnapas: Kita pan purela ren saulang kan, me mi kanim akan, wasa kita padakier duen masan en Kaun o, o kalekalelapok due’rail.
37 Barnabas planned to take along John Mark too.
A Parnapas men ukada Ioanes, me pil ad a Markus.
38 But Paul didn't think it was a good idea to take him with them, since he'd left them in Pamphylia and hadn't continued working with them.
A Paulus kupura, me a sota mau, ira en ukada i, me muei sang ira nan Pampilien o solar iang ira kolang dodok.
39 They had such a strong disagreement that they separated. Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed to Cyprus.
Ira ari akamai pena lao ira muei pasang. Parnapas ari ukada Markus tanga wong Sipern.
40 Paul chose Silas, and as they left, the believers committed them to the grace of the Lord.
Paulus piladar Silas ap kotila. A saulang kan mueidela ira ni mak en Kot.
41 Paul traveled through Syria and Cilicia, encouraging the churches there.
I ari kakan sili nan Sirien o Silisia katinada momodisou kan.
