Acts 28
1 When we were safe ashore, we discovered that we were on the island of Malta.
KIT lao pitilar, se ap rongadar, me dake o adaneki Melite.
2 The people there were very kind—they started a fire and called all of us over so we could warm up from the rain and the cold.
A men liki kan me kadek ong kit kaualap, pwe irail saunda kisiniai o kasamo kit karos, pweki katau moremor o pweki kapau.
3 Paul collected a bundle of firewood and threw it on the fire. But a poisonous snake was driven out of the bundle because of the heat and bit him, fastening itself on his hand.
Paulus lao wasai tui pena o kidi ong nani iai, serpent men ap lusadar sang nani iai pweki karakar o teng ong ni lim a.
4 When the people there saw the snake hanging from his hand, they said to each other, “This man must be a murderer. Even though he escaped death from the sea, Justice won't let him live.”
A men liki ko lao udial man o a tengeteng ni lim a, re ap kasokasoi nan pung arail: Melel aramas men et me kamelar aramas, a piti sanger nan madau, ap rialar.
5 However, Paul shook the snake off into the fire, and suffered no ill-effects.
I ari sipede wong man o nani iai o sota mesued kot lel ong i.
6 They were expecting him to swell up, or suddenly fall down dead. But after waiting a long time, they saw that nothing bad had happened to him so they changed their minds and decided he must be a god.
Irail masamasan, ma a sota pan umposada de pupedi matala, a re lao masamasan warai o kilang, me a so suedi ong, re wukidalar ar lamelam o katitiki, me dene kot amen.
7 Nearby were lands that belonged to Publius, the chief official of the island. He welcomed us and looked after us for three days very hospitably.
Saupeidi en dake o, me maraneki Puplius, kin sapaneki wasa o, kasamo o apapwali kit ran silu.
8 Now Publius' father was sick, lying in bed suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him, and prayed for him, placed his hands on him, and healed him.
A sam en Puplius wononeki somau karakar o somau nta. I me Paulus koti dong re a kapakapaki, pwil lim a kan po a, kakeladar i.
9 After this happened, everyone else who was sick on the island came and was healed.
Men en lao wiauier, karos me somau nin dake, ap kodo kakelailadar.
10 They presented us with many gifts, and when we had to sail they provided everything we needed for the voyage.
O re pil kaka kin kit kaualap. Kit lao maseldar, irail ari kidang pon sop o at kapinwar kasampwal.
11 After a three month stay we set sail aboard a ship from Alexandria having a figurehead of the Heavenly Twins that had spent the winter at the island.
A murin saunipong silu se iang sop en Aleksandrien pot, me mimi ni dake o ni ansaun kapau, me kilel en mpor.
12 We stopped at Syracuse, and spent three days there.
A se keredi Serakus o kairu wasa o pong sili pong.
13 From there we sailed on to Rhegium. The following day a south wind blew, and on the second day we arrived at the port of Puteoli,
O sang wasa o se pidok tangatang lela dong Rekium, o manda ang air irepokedo o pong ta pong se lel ong Puteoli.
14 where we discovered some believers. They asked us to stay with them for a week. So we came to Rome.
I wasa o se tu ong ia saulang kai, me poeki re at, sen mondi re’rail pong isi pong. Kit ari tangatang kokolang Rom.
15 When some of the believers from Rome heard we had arrived they came to meet us at the Forum of Appius and the Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he was thankful to God and much encouraged.
O saulang kan en wasa o lao rongadar duen kit, re ap kodo tu ong kit Apipor o Tretapern; Paulus lao diar ir ada, ap kapinga Kot o kaporopor maular.
16 When we entered Rome, Paul was permitted to stay under house arrest with a soldier to guard him.
Kit lao lel Rom, kaun en saunpei ap pangalang kaun en silepa kan me salidi ko, a Paulus me saladok kotikot wasa toror, saunpei men me sinsila i.
17 Three days later Paul invited the Jewish leaders there to come to see him. When they were all together he told them, “Brothers, even though I had not done anything wrong against the people or the customs of our forefathers, I was arrested in Jerusalem and handed over to the Roman authorities.
Kadekadeo murin ran silu Paulus ap molipe pena saumas en Sus akai. Irail lao pokon penaer, a ap masani ong irail: Ri ai ko, nan sota mesued kot, me i wiadar ong aramas, de ong lamalam en sam atail akan, ari so, ngai me salidi o pakadara dong ni pa en men Rom akan sang Ierusalem.
18 After they had interrogated me they wanted to release me because I had done nothing that warranted execution.
Irail lao kalekalelapoki ia, ap men lapwa ia dar, pwe sota dip ai, me i en kame kila.
19 But the Jewish leaders opposed this, so I was forced to appeal to Caesar—not that I had any accusations against my own people.
A Sus oko lao palian ia, i ap dorolang Sisa, kaidin ai men mpimpäki toun sap ai.
20 That's why I asked to see you, and talk to you, because it is on account of the hope of Israel that I am chained up like this.”
I me i ekera komail ki pena, i en kilang komail o kasokasoi ong komail, pweki en Sus akan ar kaporopor, me i salikidi sal mata pot et.
21 “We have not received any letters from Judea about you, and none of our people have come here with reports against you or to speak badly of you,” they told him.
Irail sapeng i: Sota kisin likau, me se ale sang Iudäa duen komui, pil sota saulang amen, me kodido, me kaire kin kit o kadedeki, me dip omui mia.
22 “But we do want to hear from you what you believe—especially regarding this sect, which we know is condemned everywhere.”
A se men ronga sang komui duen omui lamelam, pwe se ronger duen pwin wet, me re kin palian wasa karos.
23 They made an appointment to meet with him. On that day many people came to where he was staying. From morning till night Paul was explaining to them, telling them about the kingdom of God. He tried to convince them about Jesus using the writings of the law of Moses and the prophets.
Irail ari kileledi ong i ran eu, ap pokon dong re a nan im en kairu. I ari kawewe ong irail o katitiki duen wein Kot, kapakaparok ki ong irail Iesus sang nan kapung en Moses o saukop akan, sang ni mansang lel nin sautik.
24 Some accepted what Paul said, but some refused to believe.
Akai irail me kamelele a padak a akai so.
25 They couldn't agree among themselves, and they left after Paul told them this: “The Holy Spirit said it well through Isaiah the prophet to your forefathers,
Irail ari sota minimin pena nan pung arail, re ap pur pasang ni en Paulus a katitiki masan pot et: Melel, saukop Iesaia kopadar ren Ngen saraui ong sam atail akan.
26 ‘Go to these people and tell them: Even though you hear, you won't ever understand, and even though you see, you won't ever comprehend.
Masani: Ko wong ren aramas pukat indada: Komail kin rong ap so lelapok ki o ngingar, ap sota dedeki.
27 For the minds of these people have become calloused and hard, their ears cannot hear, their eyes are shut, in case they might see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and understand with their minds, and might come back to me and I would heal them.’
Pwe mongiong en aramas pukat suedalar, o salong arail ponlar, o mas arail mair penaer, pwe re de ngar kida wasa mas ar, o rong kida wasa salong arail, o asaki nan mongiong arail o sapaledo, o I en kakele ir ada.
28 Consequently you should know that this salvation that comes from God has been sent to the foreigners and they will listen.”
Komail ari en asa, me maur wot sang Kot mueidalang men liki kan o re pil pan peiki ong.
I lao masanier mepukat, Sus oko ap ko pasang o kapakaparok nan pung ar kaualap.
30 For two full years Paul stayed there in the house he rented, welcoming everyone who came to see him.
A Paulus kotikot nan im eu, me a kin isesa par riau, o kasamo karos, me ko dong i,
31 He spoke of the kingdom of God, and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ very boldly. No one prevented him.
Kaweweda wein Kot o aima padapadaki duen Kaun Iesus Kristus pwe sota me inapwiedi.
