Acts 8
1 And Saul was consenting to his death. And there arose on that day a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and all were scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.
Saulus sia mamanaꞌ naa boe, de naꞌaheiꞌ risa Stefanus.
2 And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him.
Leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori hira mana manggate tungga Lamatualain. Stefanus mate ma, ara nggae ei-ei, de reu haꞌi rendi ao sisi na fo raꞌoi. Eniꞌ a faiꞌ naa, atahori raꞌasususaꞌ Lamatuaꞌ Yesus atahori Nara sia Yerusalem, de ara doidꞌoso seli. Basa se rela sea-sarangganggaa risiꞌ propinsi Yudea ma propinsi Samaria. Hela akaꞌ a Yesus dedenu Nara sia Yerusalem.
3 But Saul ravaged the church, entering house after house, and dragging both men and women, committed them to prison.
Te Saulus sangga dalaꞌ nakandooꞌ a fo tao doidꞌoso Yesus atahori nara. Ana sangga se sudꞌiꞌ a sia bee-bꞌee. Ana masoꞌ kalua tungga-tunggaꞌ a ume fo sangga se. Mae touꞌ do inaꞌ o, ana toꞌu fo tao se bui rala reu.
4 Now those that had been scattered abroad went through the country preaching the word.
Onaꞌ mae atahori raꞌasususaꞌ Yesus atahori nara, losa ara rela sea-saranggaa, te ara nda raloeꞌ dui Lamatuaꞌ Yesus Dudꞌui Malole Na neu atahori sia bee-bꞌee.
5 And Philip went down to a city of Samaria, and preached to them the Christ.
Onaꞌ a, Filipus. Ana nisiꞌ kota esa sia nusa Samaria de dui atahori ra nae, Kristus fo Lamatualain dudꞌu eniꞌ a maꞌahulu na, naeni Yesus.
6 And the multitudes with one accord gave heed to the things spoken by Philip, when they heard and saw the signs which he wrought.
Ana tao manadadꞌiꞌ ra, ma atahori ra raꞌabꞌubꞌue fo rena malolole oꞌola Na.
7 For from many that had unclean spirits came they out crying with a loud voice; and many that were palsied, and that were lame, were cured.
Sia naa hambu atahori nitu taoꞌ ra. Nitu ra lao hela atahori ra no randu rahereꞌ. Atahori mamaluꞌuꞌ ro ei dokaꞌ hetar o hai reuꞌ ena boe.
8 And there was great joy in that city.
Naa de atahori mana sia kota naa ramahoꞌo seli.
9 But before their arrival a certain man, named Simon, was in the city, a man practising sorcery, and amazing the people of Samaria, saying that he himself was some great person;
Sia naa hambu atahori mahineꞌ sa, naran Simon. Eniꞌ a dooꞌ ena, ana pake nitu mahine na neu atahori Samaria ra. Ana koa-koaꞌ ao na nae, “Au ia, manaseliꞌ!”
10 to whom they gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the Power of God, which is called Great.
Basa moko-anak, touꞌ-inaꞌ, sia kota naa, ola-olaꞌ Simon nara na rae, “Wii! Atahori ia, seli ma! Saa fo ana taoꞌ naa, mia Lamatualain koasa Na!” Huu ana nahine pake nitu a mahine na, de atahori ra hii pake e eniꞌ a dooꞌ ena.
11 And to him they gave heed, because they had for a long time been amazed by his sorceries.
12 But when they believed Philip, publishing the glad tidings concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
Te ia naa, ara rena Filipus nanori Lamatualain parenda Na, ma natudꞌu dalaꞌ fo ara dadꞌi Lamatualain atahori Na, nendiꞌ Yesus nara Na. Rena basa ma, naeꞌ ramahere, de masoꞌ dadꞌi Lamatualain bobꞌonggi Na. Mae touꞌ do inaꞌ, ara nau dadꞌi taꞌo naa. Naa de, ara hambu sarani.
13 And Simon himself also believed, and having been baptized he continued with Philip, and was amazed when he beheld the miracles and signs which were wrought.
Simon o namahere ma nau dadꞌi Yesus atahori Na. De ara sarani e ma ana tungga Filipus sudꞌiꞌ a bee reu. Leleꞌ ana nita manadadꞌiꞌ fo Filipus taoꞌ ra, ana kakaler langgan, oi “We! Ia, seli tebꞌe!”
14 And the apostles at Jerusalem, hearing that Samaria had received the word of God, sent to them Peter and John;
Leleꞌ naa, Lamatuaꞌ Yesus dedenu Nara mana sia Yerusalem rena rae atahori sia nusaꞌ Samaria ra ramahere Lamatualain Dedꞌea-oꞌola Na. Basa ma, ara denu Petrus no Yohanis naa reu.
15 who, having come down, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit.
Ruꞌa se losa naa, dei de bubꞌuluꞌ atahori mana sia naa ra, nda feꞌe simbo Lamatualain Dula-dale Meumare Na sa. Ara feꞌe a hambu sarani pake Yesus nara Na. De Petrus no Yohanis ndae lima nara neu se, ma hule-oꞌe, roꞌe fo atahori Samaria ra o simbo Lamatualain Dula-dale Meumare Na. Boe ma, ara simbo neuꞌ ena.
16 For it had not yet fallen upon any of them; but they had only been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.
17 Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
18 But Simon, seeing that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, offered them money,
Simon o nita Petrus no Yohanis ndae lima nara reu atahori ra, ma ara simbo Lamatualain Dula-dale Na. De ana loo doiꞌ neu ruꞌa se, ma noꞌe nae,
19 saying, Give me also this power, that on whomever I lay my hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit.
“We! Ama nggare! Fee au koasa naa dei. Fo mete ma au tao lima ngga neu se ata, na ara simbo Lamatualain Dula-dale Meumare Na.”
20 But Peter said to him, Thy money perish with thee! because thou didst think to obtain the gift of God with money.
Te Petrus bua e nae, “Mate mopo nggo mo doi ma! Mbei ma ho mae bisa hasa Lamatualain Dula-dale Na no doiꞌ, do? Hokoꞌ! Atahori nda bisa hasa Lamatulain Dula-dale Na sa.
21 Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter; for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
Ho nda ma hak saa-saa saꞌ boe neu Lamatualain Dula-dale Na, te rala ma nda ndos sa. Ho sanggaꞌ a dala hahambuꞌ soaꞌ neu aom.
22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray the Lord, if haply the thought of thy heart may be forgiven thee.
Doaꞌ tao salaꞌ leo. Malole lenaꞌ hule-oꞌe neu Lamatualain, fo onaꞌ bee naa, Ana fee ambon neu dudꞌuꞌa deꞌulaka ma.
23 For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.
Au bubꞌuluꞌ ho nda nau atahori feaꞌ lenaꞌ nggo sa, ma deꞌulakaꞌ naeꞌ paꞌa nggo!”
24 And Simon answering said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of the things which ye have spoken may come upon me.
Petrus ola basa naa boe ma, Simon noꞌe ruꞌa se nae, “Ama nggare! Mete ma taꞌo naa, tulun hule-oꞌe fee au, fo dedꞌea deꞌulakaꞌ naa, afiꞌ dai au.”
25 They then, when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, were returning to Jerusalem, and publishing the glad tidings in many villages of the Samaritans.
Basa naa ma, Petrus no Yohanis dui Lamatuaꞌ Yesus Dudꞌui Malole Na ma rafadꞌe Lamatualain Dedꞌea-oꞌola Na sia kota naa. Boe ma ara baliꞌ Yerusalem reu. Tungga-tungga dalaꞌ, ara tuli kambo-kamboꞌ sia propinsi Samaria, fo dui Lamatuaꞌ Yesus Dudꞌui Malole Na neu basa atahori sia naa.
26 But an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, Arise, and go towards the south, to the way that goeth down from Jerusalem to Gaza. This is a desert way.
Basa ma, Lamatualain ate Na esa mia sorga denu Filipus nae, “Ana ngge! Lao muu tungga dalaꞌ mana ona neu. Tungga dala mbaraaꞌ naa mana mia Yerusalem nisiꞌ kota Gasa.”
27 And he arose and went; and lo! a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch, a high officer of Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem to worship,
Filipus rena parendaꞌ naa boe ma, ana lao neuꞌ ena. Losa dalaꞌ naa ma, nita atahori sa. Eni, atahori monaeꞌ sa mia nusa Etiopia. Ana mana tao mataꞌ neu ratu Kandake hata-heto nara. Ana feꞌe hule-oꞌe basa mia Yerusalem, de ana baliꞌ no kareta. Filipus nita e endoꞌ baca sia kareta ata. Ana baca Lamatulain mana ola-ola Na baꞌi Yesaya susura na.
28 was returning and sitting in his chariot; and he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
29 And the Spirit said to Philip, Go near and join thyself to this chariot.
Lamatualain Dula-dale Na denu Filipus neu deka kareta fo nandaa no atahori naa.
30 And Philip ran up, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, Well, but dost thou understand what thou art reading?
Ana deka boe ma, rena atahori naa baca mia baꞌi Yesaya susura na. Natane nae, “Amaꞌ! Muhine saa fo bacaꞌ naa, do, hokoꞌ?”
31 And he said, How can I, unless some one shall guide me? And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
Nataa nae, “Hokoꞌ. Musi atahori rafadꞌe au, dei fo uhine. Uma endoꞌ mo au sia ia.”
32 And the passage of the scripture which he was reading was this: “He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so he openeth not his mouth.
Susura fo ana bacaꞌ naa, lii na taꞌo ia: “Ara lea E, onaꞌ lea bibꞌi lombo, fo rae hala. Ana dadꞌi onaꞌ bibꞌi lombo anaꞌ fo atahori nggute fulu na, te nda naꞌamee sa. Ana nda nahara sa, ma nda nataa saa saꞌ boe.
33 In his humiliation judgment was refused him; and who shall describe his generation? for his life is taken away from the earth.”
Ara raꞌamuti E; Ma raꞌetuꞌ sala dedꞌea Na. Ara tao risa E, te nda no sala Na saa saꞌ boe. Naa de, hai nda bisa olaꞌ mbei sa boe soꞌal tititi-nonosi Nara.”
34 And the eunuch answering said, I pray thee, of whom doth the prophet say this? Of himself, or of some other man?
Atahori monaen naa baca basa ma, natane Filipus nae, “Taꞌo bee? Baꞌi Yesaya olaꞌ naa neu ao na, do, olaꞌ neu atahori feaꞌ?”
35 And Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this scripture declared to him the glad tidings concerning Jesus.
Basa de, Filipus nanori e, Lamatuaꞌ Yesus Dudꞌui Malole Na. Ana dui mia Yesaya susuran naa, ma mia susura feaꞌ ra boe, fo natudꞌu dalaꞌ tungga Yesus.
36 And as they went along the road, they came to a certain water; and the eunuch saith, See, here is water; what is there to hinder my being baptized?
Ara feꞌe lao-laoꞌ ma, atahori naa nita oe sia loe sa. De ana olaꞌ tute Filipus oꞌola na, ma noꞌe nae, “Amaꞌ. Mete dei! Oe sia naa. Mete ma nau, na, onda teu fo sarani au sia ia leon.”
[Basa ma Filipus nataa nae, “Mete ma amaꞌ mumuhere tebꞌe-tebꞌe Lamatuaꞌ Yesus, naa nda saa saꞌ boe. Ata onda fo au sarani amaꞌ.” Ana naꞌaheiꞌ nae, “Au umuhere tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Yesus, fo Lamatualain dudꞌu mia dalahulu na neu. Eni, Lamatualain Ana Na.”]
38 And he commanded that the chariot should stop; and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
Boe ma, amaꞌ naa denu kareta na nambariiꞌ. Ara onda de oeꞌ rala reu. Ma Filipus sarani e.
39 But when they had come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more, for he went on his way rejoicing.
Ruaꞌ se dea reu mia oe a ma, Lamatualain Dula-dale Meumare Na nendi Filipus nisiꞌ mamana feaꞌ. Atahori monaen naa nda nita e sa ena. Dadꞌi ana lao nakandoo, no rala na namahoꞌo seli.
40 But Philip was found at Azotus; and passing through, he published the glad tidings in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.
Te aiboiꞌ ma Filipus losa kamboꞌ esa, naran Asotus. Mia naa, ana laoꞌ nakandoo fo nafadꞌe Yesus Dudꞌui Malole Na neu atahori. Ana lao tuli basa kamboꞌ losa kota Kaisarea.
