Acts 19
1 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,
Teo t’ie e Korinto añe t’i Apolosy, le niranga i tane aboy t’i Paoly naho nipoteake e Efesosy ao vaho nitendreke mpiòke,
2 He said unto them, Have all of you received the Holy Spirit (pneuma) since all of you believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Spirit. (pneuma)
le nanoa’e ty hoe: Rinambe’ areo hao i Arofo Masiñey te niantoke? Aiy! hoe ty natoi’ iareo: mbe tsy nijanji’ay i Arofo Masiñey.
3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were all of you baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.
Aa le hoe re: Ami’ty inoñe arè ty nampiliporañe anahareo? Ty fampilipora’ i Jaonay, hoe iareo.
4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
Aa le hoe t’i Paoly: Toe nandipotse ami’ty fandiporam-pisolohoañe t’i Jaona, hatokisa’ iareo i manonjohy azey: Iesoà izay.
5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Ie jinanji’ iereo, le nalipotse ami’ty tahina’ Iesoà Talè.
6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit (pneuma) came on them; and they spoke with tongues, and prophesied.
Le nanampeza’ i Paoly fitàñe naho nivotraha’ i Arofo Masiñey naho nilikoliko vaho nitoky.
7 And all the men were about twelve.
Va’e folo ro’amby indaty rey.
8 And he went into the synagogue, and spoke boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.
Nizilik’ am-pitontonañ’ao t’i Paoly le nilañoñe telo volañe, am-pahavaniañe nitaroñe naho nañosike iareo amy Fifehean’ Añaharey.
9 But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spoke evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
Aa ie nihagàñe ty ila’e naho nanjehatse mbore nanivetive i Lalañey añatrefa’ i màroy, le nisitaha’e naho nave’e o mpiòkeo vaho nañotsohotso boak’ andro an-dakilasi’ i Tiranò ao.
10 And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word (logos) of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
Nitoloñe’ iereo roe taoñe izay, aa le hene nahajanjiñe ty tsara’ Iehovà o mpimoneñe Asiao, ndra Jiosy ndra Grika.
11 And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:
Nitolon-draha tsitantane am-pità’ i Paoly t’i Andriañahare,
12 So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits (pneuma) went out of them.
ie nendeseñe boak’ an-tsandri’e ty sarimbo ndra masoara mb’ amo silokeo le nifiañe i hasilokey vaho nifaok’ añe o angatseo.
13 Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits (pneuma) the name of the LORD Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preaches.
Aa le rinambe’ o Jiosy mirererere mpitrobo-angatseo ty fikaikaihañe i tahina’ Iesoày ambone’ o vinolevolen-kokolampao, ami’ty hoe: Lilie’ay irehe ami’ty tahina’ Iesoà tseize’ i Paoliy.
14 And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.
Nanao izay ka ty anadahy fito’ i Skeva, Jiosy, talèm-pisoroñe,
15 And the evil spirit (pneuma) answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are all of you?
aa le tinoi’ i anga-dratiy ty hoe: Fantako t’Iesoa, apotako i Paoly, fa ia v’inahareoo?
16 And the man in whom the evil spirit (pneuma) was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
Le niambotraha’ indaty niangara’ i kokolampaiy naho fonga ginore’e vaho rineba’e, le nibotatsak’ amy anjombay iereo nibongibongy naho nitsiri-dio.
17 And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
Kanao hene naharendreke izay ndra Jiosy ndra Grika mpimoneñe Efesosy ao le nivotraha’ ty eveñe, vaho nonjoneñe ty tahina’ Iesoà Talè.
18 And many that believed came, and confessed, and showed their deeds.
Aa le maro amo nahafiatoo ty nimb’eo nisoloho, vaho namoraborake o sata’eo.
19 Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
Natonto’ ty mpisikily maro ka o boke’eo naho niforototoe’ iereo am-batraike. Ie vinolily, le nizoeñe te drakma lime ale ty vili’ irezay.
20 So mightily grew the word (logos) of God and prevailed.
Aa le nienatse an-kaozarañe ty tsara’ Iehovà vaho nahareketse.
21 After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, (pneuma) when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.
Ie niheneke, le sinafiri’ i Paoly añ’arofo ty hiranga i Makedonia naho i Akaia mb’e Ierosaleme añe; aa hoe re: Naho hirik’ añe le tsi-mahay tsy hitilike i Roma ka iraho.
22 So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.
Aa le nampihitrife’e mb’e Makedonia mb’eo ty mpitoro’e roe, i Timoty naho i Erasto, ie nitambatse an-tane’ Asia ao heike.
23 And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.
Ie amy zay, nipoñake ty fitrobotroboañe jabajaba ty amy Lalañey.
24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen;
Teo ty mpanefe vola foty atao Demetrio, mpamboatse hazomanga volafoty ho amy Artemise, ze nampivangongo ty fitoloña’ o mpanefeo.
25 Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, all of you know that by this craft we have our wealth.
Kinoi’e hivory o mpitrao-tolon-drahao, vaho hoe ty asa’e: O androanavio, fohi’ areo te o tolon-drahao ro mampiraorao an-tika;
26 Moreover all of you see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands:
naho isa’ areo naho janji’ areo te tsy e Efesosy avao fa didý tsy mahatsitsike i Asia ty fañosiha’ i Paoly i màroy hiamboho, ie manao te tsy ndrañahare ka o satam-pitàñeo.
27 So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nothing; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worships.
Aa tsy te i balibalin-tikañey avao ty ho mavoeñe, fa honjirañe ka ty anjomban-drañahare-ampela Artemisey hampifotsak’ i fiambesam-bolonahe’ey ie italahoa’ i Asia iaby naho ty voatse toy.
28 And when they heard these sayings, they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
Ie nahajanjiñe iereo, le nilifom-piforoforo vaho songa nikoràke ty hoe: Ra’elahy t’i Artemise’ o nte Efesosio!
29 And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the theatre.
Aa le nitsitsike fivalitaboahañe i rovay, le nihitrihitry hoe raike mb’an-tameañe ey, naho kinozozo’ iareo t’i Gaio naho i Aristarko nte-Makedonia, mpitrao-lia amy Paoly.
30 And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.
Ho naneñateña amy fiharondembohañ’ ao t’i Paoly fe tsy napo’ o mpiòkeo.
31 And certain of the chief of Asia, which were his friends, sent unto him, desiring him that he would not adventure himself into the theatre.
Nañitrik’ ama’e ka ty ila’ o bei’ i Asia rañe’eo, ty tsy hitoaña’e i tameañey.
32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused: and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together.
Aa le nikoràke hoe zao ty ila’e naho hoe izay ty ila’e amy te nifamalitaboak’ i fivoriy vaho ninofi’ i màroy ty talim-pivoria’e.
33 And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defence unto the people.
Tamy màroy ty nampibejañe i rahay amy Aleksandro le naronje’ o Jiosio mb’aolo mb’eo. Aa le nanondrotondro fitàñe t’i Aleksandro hiveroke amo nivorio.
34 But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
Fe naho nifohi’ i màroy t’ie Jiosy, le nirihòñe’ iereo an-tazataza añate’ ty roe ora ty hoe: Ra’elahy t’i Artemise’ i Efesosy!
35 And when the public clerk had appeased the people, he said, All of you men of Ephesus, what man is there that knows not how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?
Ie nampianjiñe i lahialeñey ty silikitera’ i rovay le hoe ty asa’e: Ry ondaty nte Efesosio, Ia t’indaty tsy mahafohiñe te mpañambeñe ty anjomba’ i Artemise ra’elahy nivotrak’ atoy boak’ andindiñ’ añe, ty rova’ o nte-Efesosio?
36 Seeing then that these things cannot be spoken against, all of you ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.
Aa kanao tsy hay liereñe, le kitra’e hianjiñe nahareo tsy hanao ty hajagarigarìañe,
37 For all of you have brought here these men, which are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.
amy te nasese’ areo mb’etoa ondaty tsy mpamaok’ anjomba miavake vaho tsy mpanivetive an-drañahare-ampela-tikañey.
38 Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him, have a matter (logos) against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them sue one another.
Aa naho te haneseke ondaty t’i Demetrio naho o mpanao satam-pitàñeo, le misokake i zakay, vaho ao o sorotào, angao iereo hifampaneseke.
39 But if all of you enquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.
Hera t’ie aman-draha hafa tea’ areo ho bentareñe, fe am-pivory to ao ty ilaharañe.
40 For we are in danger to be called in question for this day's uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account (logos) of this concourse.
Toe marivo ho sangieñe tika ty amy hotakotak’ anindroaniy, ie tsy aman-taly hamolilia’ay ty fañotakotahañe toy.
41 And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
Ie niheneke i saontsi’ey, le naba’e añe i màroy.
