< Acts 17 >

1 As they made their iorney thorow Amphipolis and Appolonia they came to Thessalonica where was a synagoge of the Iewes.
Amphipolis ingkaw Apollonia khaw ce ani poeng coengawh Thesalonika khaw ce pha hy nih, cawh ce Judahkhqi sinakawk pynoet awm hy.
2 And Paul as his maner was went in vnto them and thre saboth doyes declared oute of the scripture vnto them
A ceh khawi amyihna, Paul taw sinakawk na cet hy, Sabbath thum voei khuiawh cekkhqi mi cauk awi ce kqawn uhy,
3 openynge and allegynge that Christ must nedes have suffred and rysen agayne from deeth and that this Iesus was Christ whom (sayde he) I preache to you.
Khrih ing khuikha kyinaak hu kawmsaw thihnaak awhkawng tho tlaih kaw, tice kqawn caih pehy. “Nangmih a venawh kai ing ka nik kqawn law peek khqi Jesu ve Khrih hawh hy,” tinak khqi hy.
4 And some of them beleved and came and companyed with Paul and Sylas: also of the honourable Grekes a greate multitude and of the chefe wemen not a feawe.
Juda thlang thlang vang ing cangna unawh Paul ingkaw Sila ce bawng uhy, Khawsa ak kqih Greek thlang khawzah ingkaw nu qypawm khawzah ingawm bawng lawt uhy.
5 But the Iewes which beleved not havynge indignacio toke vnto the evyll men which were vagabondes and gadered a company and set all the cite on a roore and made asaute vnto the housse of Iason and sought to bringe the out to the people.
Cehlai Judakhqi tlai se unawh, ik-oeih ami zawihnaak hun awh thlak che pynoet ceh pyi uhy; thlang kqeng cun khqi unawh khawk khuiawh awipungnaak ce sai uhy. Jason a im ce muk unawh Paul ingkaw Sila ce thlang kqeng a haiawh sawi aham cai uhy.
6 But when they founde them not they drue Iason and certayne brethren vnto the heedes of the cite cryinge: these that trouble the worlde are come hydder also
Cehlai cekqawi ce a mami huh law awhtaw, Jason ingkaw koeinaa thlang vang tloek ce khawboei a venna sawi unawh, “Kawmdek seetnaak ak sai qawi ce ve pha law hawh hy nih,
7 which Iason hath receaved prevely. And these all do contrary to the elders of Cesar affirmynge another kynge one Iesus.
Jason ing cekqawi ce do nawh a im awh pah sak hy. Cekqawi ing Kaisar ak awipeek oelh nih nawh, sangpahrang ak chang Jesu awm hy, tinawh kqawn hy nih,” tinawh khy uhy.
8 And they troubled the people and the officers of the cite when they hearde these thinges.
Ce ak awi ce a ming zaak awh, thlang kqeng ingkaw khawboeikhqi ce so khqoet uhy.
9 And when they were sufficiently answered of Iason and of the other they let the goo.
Jason ingkaw ak changkhqi ce ceh sak uhy.
10 And the brethren immediatly sent awaye Paul and Sylas by nyght vnto Berrea. Which when they were come thyther they entred into ye synagoge of the Iewes.
Khaw am than awhtaw koeinaakhqi ing Paul ingkaw Sila ce Berea khaw na tyi uhy. Ce a khaw ce ani pha awh Judakhqi a sinakawk na ce cet hy nih.
11 These were the noblest of byrthe amonge the of Thessalonia which receaved the worde wt all diligence of mynde and searched ye scriptures dayly whether those thinges were even so.
Berea khaw awhkaw thlangkhqi taw Thesalonika khaw awhkaw thlang khqing lak awh cyi khqoet uhy, a mingmih ingtaw Paul ak awih kqawn ce ak nep cana a ming ngai peek coengawh, anih ak awih kqawn ve ak thym tang hy voei nu ti unawh cauk awh ak nep cana sui uhy.
12 And many of the beleved: also of worshipfull weme which were Grekes and of men not a feawe.
Juda thlang khawzah ing cangna unawh Greek thlak mang nunu papa khawzah ingawm cangna uhy.
13 When the Iewes of Thessalonia had knowledge that ye worde of God was preached of Paul at Berrea they came there and moved the people.
Paul ing Berea khaw awh awithang leek kqawn hy tice Thesalonika khaw awhkaw thlangkhqi ing a ming zaak awh, ce na ce cet bai unawh thlang kqeng ce ami cuih coengawh awipungnaak sai bai uhy.
14 And then by and by ye brethre sent awaye Paul to goo as it were to ye see: but Sylas and Timotheus abode there still.
Koeinaakhqi ing Paul ce tuicunli a keng na thak pahoei uhy, Sila ingkaw Timote taw Berea khaw awh awm hy nih.
15 And they that gyded Paul brought him vnto Attens and receaved a comaundment vnto Sylas and Timotheus for to come to him at once and came their waye.
Paul ak thak thlangkhqi ing anih ce Atheni khaw na ceh pyi uhy, Sila ingkaw Timote ce a venawh law zy aham awi a yn coengawh cekkhqi ce hlat uhy.
16 Whyll Paul wayted for them at Attens his sprete was moved in him to se the cite geven to worshippinge of ymages.
Paul ing cekqawi ce Atheni khaw awh a qeh awh, khawk khui boeih myiqawl bawknaak ing be uhy tice a huh awh ak kawlung khuikha hy.
17 Then he disputed in the synagoge wt the Iewes and with the devout persones and in the market dayly with the that came vnto him.
Cedawngawh sinakawk awh Judakhqi, Khawsa ak kqih Greekkhqi mi Khawsak awi kqawnnaak ce tahy, them ami zawihnaak hun awh khaw hypoet coeng hypoet cawhkaw amik awmkhqi mi Khawsak awi kqawn qu pe uhy.
18 Certayne philosophers of ye Epicures and of ye stoyckes disputed with him. And some ther were which sayde: what will this babler saye. Other sayd: he semeth to be a tydynges bringer of newe devyls because he preached vnto them Iesus and the resurreccion.
Cawh Epikuria ingkaw Stoik thlakcyikhqi mi ce oelh qu uhy. Cekkhqi anglakawhkaw thlang vang ing, “Vawhkaw ak so thlang ing ve ikaw nu ti ak kqawn lawt?” tina uhy. Thlang vang tloek ing, “Qap chang nakaw khawsa akawngkhqi ni ak kqawn namih hy ve,” tina uhy. Paul ing Jesu ak awithang leek ingkaw thawh tlaihnaak akawng ak kqawn dawngawh cemyihna ce tina uhy.
19 And they toke him and brought him into Marsestrete sayinge: maye we not knowe what this newe doctrine wher of thou speakest is?
Areopaga ami ti cunnaak a hun na ceh pyi unawh a venawh, “Vawhkaw cawngpyinaak ak thai nak kqawn ve kaimih a venawh nak kqawn law hly thai nu?
20 For thou bringest straunge tydynges to oure eares. We wolde knowe therfore what these thinges meane.
Awi nak kqawn ve kaimih ang zaak awhtaw lang hy, cedawngawh zaksim aham ngaih unyng,” tina uhy.
21 For all the Attenians and straungers which were there gave the selves to nothinge els but ether to tell or to heare newe tydynges.
Cedawngawh Athenis khaw awhkaw thlangkhqi ingkaw khinkhqi boeih awm, ami hoeng tym awh a hoei awh awikqawnaak ingkaw awi doetnaak na hawna uhy.
22 Paul stode in the myddes of Marse strete and sayde: ye men of Attens I perceave that in all thinges ye are to supersticious.
Areopagi cunnaak awh Paul ce dyi nawh: “Athenis thlangkhqi! Ik-oeih soepkep awh bawknaak ak thin tlawhnaak thlang na awm uhyk ti tice sim nyng.
23 For as I passed by and behelde the maner how ye worship youre goddes I founde an aultre wher in was written: vnto ye vnknowen god. Whom ye then ignoratly worship him shewe I vnto you.
Cet nawh nangmih ing nami bawkkhqi ce ka toek lah awh, “AMSIM KHAWSA HAMNA,” tinawh nami qee ce hu nyng. Nangmih ing a sim kaana nami bawk ce ni, tuh kai ing kak kqawn law hy.
24 God that made the worlde and all that are in it seynge that he is Lorde of heven and erth he dwelleth not in temples made with hondes
Khawmdek ingkaw ak khuiawh ak awm boeih ak saikung Khawsa ve khan ingkaw khawmdek boei na awm nawh kut ing a sai bawkim awh ak awm am ni;
25 nether is worshipped with mennes hondes as though he neded of eny thinge seinge he him selfe geveth lyfe and breeth to all men every where
them amak sai thai amyihna thlanghqing ing a sai peek ak ngoe Khawsa am ni; amah ing a soep hoei boeih a venawh hqingnaakkhqi, bibinaakkhqi ingkaw ik-oeih boeih ak pekung na awm hy.
26 and hath made of one bloud all nacions of men for to dwell on all the face of the erthe and hath assigned before how longe tyme and also the endes of their inhabitacion
Thlanghqing ve khawmdek pum boeih awh pynoetna khawsak boeih hamna thlang phyn boeih ce sai nawh, ami ham atym ingkaw amik khawsaknaak ham khawqi khan pek khqi hy.
27 that they shuld seke God yf they myght fele and fynde him though he be not farre from every one of vs.
Khawsa sui unawh, thoem unawh, ami huhnaak hqet thai aham anih ing lak am ni hla khqi hy.
28 For in him we lyve move and have oure beynge as certayne of youre awne Poetes sayde. For we are also his generacion.
Amah ak caming ni hqing, ning tat thai unawh ning plaa thai uhy; nangmih awhkaw hla ak phawh thai thlang pynoet ing awm, 'Ningnih awm a cadilkhqi na nik awm ni,' tinawh ak kqawn amyihna.
29 For as moche then as we are the generacion of God we ought not to thynke that the godhed is lyke vnto golde silver or stone graven by crafte and ymaginacion of man.
Cedawngawh Khawsa a cadilkhqi na ni awm hawh kawng taw, Khawsa ve thlanghqing ing sui ing aw, tangka ing aw, lung ing aw a sai myiqawl amyihna poek aham am awm hy.
30 And the tyme of this ignoraunce God regarded not: but now he byddeth all men every where repent
Khawsa ing am ni simnaakkhqi ce nim hilh pek khqi nawh; cehlai tuawh ve qam boeih awhkaw thlang boeih zyt aham awi pek hawh hy.
31 because he hath apoynted a daye in the which he will iudge the worlde acordynge to ryghtewesses by that man whom he hath apoynted and hath offered faith to all men after that he had raysed him from deeth.
Ikawtih, amah ing ak tyh thlang ce hawna nawh khawmdek awideng aham khawnghi ce hoep hawh hy. Thihnaak awhkawng anih ce a thawh saknaak ak caming thlang boeih a venawh vawhkaw hatnaak ce dang sak hawh hy,” tinak khqi hy.
32 When they hearde of ye resurreccion from deeth some mocked and other sayde: we will heare the agayne of this matter.
Thlak thi thawhnaak akawng a ming zaak awh, thlang vang tloek ing qaih na uhy, cehlai thlang vang ingtaw, “Ve ak awi ve ka ming ngai tlaih aham ngaih unyng,” tina uhy.
33 So Paul departed from amonge them.
Cehlai Paul ing a miven awhkawng cehtak khqi hy.
34 Howbeit certayne men clave vnto Paul and beleved amonge the which was Dionysius a senatour and a woman named Damaris and other with them.
Thlang a khoeh Paul a hu awh bat unawh ak awih kqawn ce cangna uhy. Cekhqi anglakawh Areopagi khuiawh kaw thlang pynoet Dionisia ingkaw Damari ak mingnaak nu pynoet ingkaw thlak changkhqi awm pa uhy.
