Acts 19
1 And it came to passe, while Apollos was at Corinthus, that Paul when he passed thorow the vpper coasts, came to Ephesus, and found certaine disciples,
Li sua ke Apolo ń bo ye Korenti, Pɔli den tɔgni ya dogi n ye a juana nni kuli, ki ban pundi Efesi dogciamu nni, ki kadi yeni Jesu ŋɔdkaaba siiga tianba.
2 And saide vnto them, Haue ye receiued the holy Ghost since ye beleeued? And they saide vnto him, Wee haue not so much as heard whether there be an holy Ghost.
Pɔli ń yedi ba: «Yin dugi U Tienu po yeni, i baa mi Foŋanma aa?» Ban ŋmiani o: «N n, tii gbadi ke bi maadi Foŋanma maama mɔno»
3 And he said vnto them, Vnto what were ye then baptized? And they saide, Vnto Iohns baptisme.
Pɔli ń buali ba: «To bi nan tieni yi mi ñinwulma bogdili yeni be i?» Ban jiini: “O Ñinwulka Jan yaama”
4 Then saide Paul, Iohn verely baptized with the baptisme of repentance, saying vnto the people, that they shoulde beleeue in him, which should come after him, that is, in Christ Iesus.
Lanwani ii, Pɔli ń jiini ba: «Jan den tieni ti tuonbiadi sugli ya ñinwulma bogdili i. O den waani bi niba ke ban ya daani yua n ba ŋɔdi o puoli wani n tie Jesu.»
5 And when they heard it, they were baptized in the Name of the Lord Iesus.
Bi niba ń gbadi lan ya maama, ke bi tuo ki ga mi ñinwulma bogdili O Diedo Jesu yeli po.
6 So Paul layde his handes vpon them, and the holy Ghost came on them, and they spake the tongues, and prophecied.
Pɔli ń́ maani o nui bi po, ke Foŋanma jiidi bi po, ke bi ji maadi mi maalanma nni ki pua sawali.
7 And all the men were about twelue.
Bi den tie nani jaba piiga n bilie i.
8 Moreouer he went into the Synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three moneths, disputing and exhorting to the things that appertaine to the kingdome of God.
Pɔli den kua yikodi tundma dieli nni, ki maadi yeni li papaali, nani ŋmaali taa yeni, ki tie ania ke ban gbadi U Tienu diema niima nni.
9 But when certaine were hardened, and disobeyed, speaking euill of the way of God before the multitude, hee departed from them, and separated the disciples, and disputed dayly in the schoole of one Tyrannus.
Ama, Juufinba bi tianba den juagi bi pala kaa tuo ki cɔlni Jesu sanŋɔdma, ki go maadi ki biidi Jesu yeli asala siiga. Lanyapo, Pɔli den yaadi ki ŋa ba, ki taa bi ŋɔdkaaba, ki piadi ki ban tundi ba daali kuli Tiranusi cogdieli nni.
10 And this was done by the space of two yeeres, so that all they which dwelt in Asia, heard the word of ye Lord Iesus, both Iewes and Grecians.
Pɔli den li kubi yeni i hali bina lie, ke yaaba ye Asi kuli, Juufinba yeni Gilekinba kuli, gbadi O Diedo maama.
11 And God wrought no small miracles by the handes of Paul,
U Tienu den tie Yaalidgu tuada yeni Pɔli nui,
12 So that from his body were brought vnto the sicke, kerchefs or handkerchefs, and the diseases departed from them, and the euill spirits went out of them.
Lanyapo, ya yianba den fidi ki sii Pɔli ninfiancabli bii o tiayiekaagu den yi baa laafia, mu cicibiadmu mo den ñ ki ŋaani yiantianba mo.
13 Then certaine of the vagabond Iewes, exorcistes, tooke in hand to name ouer them which had euil spirits, the Name of the Lord Iesus, saying, We adiure you by Iesus, whom Paul preacheth.
Ama Juufinba, ŋantaadi danba mo den ye li diema nni, ki bieli ki ñangi mu cicibiadmu mun ye yaaba niinni O Diedo Jesu yeli po. Bi den yi yedi: “Jesu, Pɔli ń wangi yua ya maama yeli po, n yedi yi yeni li niinli ke yin ña ki ŋa bi niba ne”
14 (And there were certaine sonnes of Sceua a Iewe, the Priest, about seuen which did this)
Yaaba n den tiendi lani den tie Juufi salga yidkacianba siiga yendo, ke bi yii o Sefa ya bijalelediba i.
15 And the euil spirit answered, and said, Iesus I acknowledge, and Paul I know: but who are ye?
Cicibiadyenga ń jiini ba “N bani Jesu, N go bani Pɔli mo; Ke yinba mo tie bile i?
16 And the man in whome the euil spirit was, ranne on them, and ouercame them, and preuailed against them, so that they fledde out of that house, naked, and wounded.
Ki cicibiadga yaaga n ye o nilo nni yeni ń bibi ŋantaadi tofaadanba, kiloli ba ki puapua ki duoli ba ban ña li dieli nni ki sani mubili yeni ti yiadi.
17 And this was knowen to all the Iewes and Grecians also, which dwelt at Ephesus, and feare came on them all, and the Name of the Lord Iesus was magnified,
Ya niba n ye Efesi kuli, Juufinba yeni gilekinba ń gbadi li maama, ki bandi. Ti jawaandi ń kua ba, ban kpiagi O Diedo Jesu yeli.
18 And many that beleeued, came and confessed, and shewed their workes.
Yaaba n den daani Jesu nni mo den nagdi ki wangi ban tieni ya tuonbiadi, ki miadi sugli ti po
19 Many also of them which vsed curious artes, brought their bookes, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fiftie thousand pieces of siluer.
Bi ñɔgdanba yeni ti bulbɔndi danba den cua yeni bi tila ke bi juu ke a buodi u mu nni asala siiga. Li tila kuli dunga den pundi ligdibala tuda piimu
20 So the worde of God grewe mightily, and preuailed.
Lanyapo, O Diedo maama den yadi i kaankuli yeni u paaciamu.
21 Nowe when these things were accomplished, Paul purposed by the Spirite to passe through Macedonia and Achaia, and to goe to Hierusalem, saying, After I haue bene there, I must also see Rome.
Pɔli ń sɔni o tuonli ki gbeni Efesi dogu nni, Foŋanma den kuani li jagli ke wan tɔgni Maseduani yeni Acihayi po, ki gedi Jerusalema; O den maadi “Min kali nekanba yeni, li buali ke min pundi Roma po mo.”
22 So sent hee into Macedonia two of them that ministred vnto him, Timotheus and Erastus, but he remained in Asia for a season.
Pɔli den sɔni o todkaaba bilie Maseduani, lani n tie Timote yeni Erasitusi yaaba n den tie o naacenba. Ama wani obá go den tieni Asi diema nni waamu.
23 And the same time there arose no small trouble about that way.
Lanyognu, bi den fiini mi janjancianma Efesi dogu nni, ki mi nua Jesu sanŋɔdma.
24 For a certaine man named Demetrius a siluersmith, which made siluer temples of Diana, brought great gaines vnto the craftesmen,
Wula maano den ye ki yii Demetriyusi, o den duadi Diyana jaandieli bonnanana ki kuandi o tuonsɔnba po li baali boncianla
25 Whom he called together, with the workemen of like things, and saide, Syrs, ye knowe that by this craft we haue our goods:
Lanwani ii, o den yini li tuonsɔnba yeni ya maaba sieni, ki taani ba ki yedi ba, “Canbáanba, i kuli bani ke ku maagu ne tuonli kuandi ti li baali boncianla.
26 Moreouer ye see and heare, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia this Paul hath perswaded, and turned away much people, saying, That they be not gods which are made with handes.
I la ki go gbadi, li ki tie Efesi ne baba ka ama Asi nni kuli, ke ban yii yua Pɔli bɔndi ki lebdi bi niba maalma ke bi ŋɔdi o. O yedi ba ke ban tagi ya buli yeni i nui ki tie tienu.
27 So that not onely this thing is dangerous vnto vs, that this our portion shall be reproued, but also that the temple of the great goddesse Diana should be nothing esteemed, and that it would come to passe that her magnificence, which all Asia and the world worshippeth, should be destroyed.
Li ba fidi bi niba ń fali ti kpenkpendu tuonli ne; lani baba ka, bi go ba fidi ki fanbi ti pobulo Diyana yua n dagdi yeni ti kpiagdi yeni budieli. Wani yua ke Asi kuli yeni ŋanduna kuli bugi ba buoni o kpiagdi.”
28 Now when they heard it, they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
Ban gbadi lanya maama, ke bi fii yeni li pabienli ki yigni ki tua “Efesi yaaba Diyana ye yeni ti kpiagdi”
29 And the whole citie was full of confusion, and they rushed into the common place with one assent, and caught Gaius, and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, and Pauls companions of his iourney.
Ke li ŋmadli tieni u dogu nni kuli, ke bi niba taani ku kua u badu guagu nni, ki cuo pɔli yegni yaaba n den ñani Maseduani ki cua, Gayusi yeni Arisitarkusi.
30 And when Paul would haue entred in vnto the people, the disciples suffred him not.
Pɔli den bua kua ku niwulgu siiga, ama bi ŋɔdkaaba den pani o.
31 Certaine also of the chiefe of Asia which were his friendes, sent vnto him, desiring him that hee woulde not present him selfe in the Common place.
Asi diema nni yikodanba yaaba n den tie dɔnlinba den sɔni u tondu ki waani o ke wanda kua ku guagu nni.
32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assemblie was out of order, and the more part knewe not wherefore they were come together.
Bi niba den yigni ki maadi maayenma, ke tianba mo maatɔma, kelima bi den ye ti yanyagdi nni ke bi siiga boncianli ki bani ban taani yaali ya po.
33 And some of the company drew foorth Alexander, the Iewes thrusting him forwards. Alexander then beckened with the hande, and woulde haue excused the matter to the people.
Juufinba ń dadi Aleksandro ki ñani bi niba siiga, ki seni o liiga Aleksandro ń cili ki ya gangi o nui, ki bua wan waani li nitaanli li bonli niima nni.
34 But when they knew that he was a Iewe, there arose a shoute almost for the space of two houres, of all men crying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
Ama, ban bandi ke o tie Juufi, ban taani ki tandi ki maadi maayenma lan waagi kudilie ki tua, “Efesi yaaba Artemisa ye yeni ti kpiagdi.”
35 Then the towne clearke when hee had stayed the people, saide, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is it that knoweth not howe that the citie of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddesse Diana, and of the image, which came downe from Iupiter?
yiko tuonsɔnlo ń mɔndi ki jiini ku niwulgu yama, ke o maadi, “Yinba Efesi yaaba, o laa nilo n ye ne, kaa bani ke Efesi dogciamu n tie ti pobulciamo Diyana budieli guudka, ya nannanli n ñani tanpoli ki baa?
36 Seeing then that no man can speake against these things, ye ought to be appeased, and to doe nothing rashly.
Yin bani ke lanya bonli ki pia niama yeni ii, i ba dingi i yama ki da jegibi ki sɔni tuonkaadi.
37 For yee haue brought hither these men, which haue neither committed sacrilege, neither doe blaspheme your goddesse.
Kelima yin cua yeni ya niba ti buudi ne ki tie jaandieli suuda, baa go tie yaaba n fanbi tin jaandi ya bulo mo.
38 Wherefore, if Demetrius and the craftes men which are with him, haue a matter against any man, the lawe is open, and there are Deputies: let them accuse one another.
Lanwani ii, Demetriyuusi yeni bi maaba yaaba n ye yeni o ya pia tagli yeni nilobá, ti buudi diena ye, ke ti buudi yudanba mo ye; bi ba fidi ki jia bi maama yeni biyaba.
39 But if ye inquire any thing cocerning other matters, it may be determined in a lawful assembly.
Ama i ya pia maatɔma li buali li maama jiama ń cɔlni li nitaali sanu i.
40 For we are euen in ieopardie to be accused of this dayes sedition, for as much as there is no cause, whereby we may giue a reason of this concourse of people.
Kelima, lanyapo, bi ba fidi ki jalgi ti ke ti yie yiko i ki fiini li ŋmadli dinne ki naa bani yaali ya po, ti go kan fidi ki waani li niima nni mo.
41 And when he had thus spoken, hee let the assembly depart.
Wan maadi lanya maama ki gbeni, ke o cabi li nitaanli.
