3 And because he was of the same crafte he abode with them and wrought: their crafte was to make tentes.
Cekqawi awm anih amyihna hi im ak khquikung na awm lawt hy nih, cekqawi a venawh awm nawh bibi haih uhy.
4 And he preached in ye synagoge every saboth daye and exhorted the Iewes and the gentyls.

5 When Sylas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia Paul was constrayned by the sprete to testifie to the Iewes that Iesus was very Christ.
Sila ingkaw Timote ce Makedonia awhkawng ani law awhtaw, Paul taw awithang leek doeng ni ak kqawn hawh hy, Juda thlangkhqi venawh Jesu taw Khrih ni tinawh kqawncaih pek khqi hy.
6 And whe they sayde cotrary and blasphemed he shoke his rayment and sayde vnto the: youre bloud apon youre awne heeddes and fro hence forth I goo blamelesse vnto ye gentyls.
Cehlai Judakhqi ing Paul ce oelh unawh ami the ami khanaak awhtaw a mingmih ce a hi khawk sih khqi nawh, “Na mimah a thi ce na mimah a luk khan awh tla seh! Kai taw ka sai hly kawi boeih ce sai hawh nyng. Tuhkawng taw Gentelkhqi venna ni ka ceh hly hawh hy,” tinak khqi hy.
7 And he departed thence and entred into a certayne manes housse named Iustus a worshiper of god whose housse ioyned harde to ye synagoge.

8 How be it one Crispus ye chefe rular of the synagoge beleved on ye lorde with all his housholde and many of the Corinthias gave audience and beleved and were baptised.
Sinakawk ak temkung Krispa, ing a ipkhuikaw boeih ing Bawipa ce cangna uhy; cekcoengawh ak awih kqawn za nawh ak cangnaak Korin thlang khawzah ing baptisma hu uhy.
9 Then spake the lorde to Paul in the nyght by a vision: be not afrayde but speake and holde not thy peace:
Than oet awh huhsaknaak ing Bawipa ing Paul a venawh awi kqawn pehy: “Koeh kqih nawh, ang dym kaana awi ce kqawn poe.
10 for I am with the and no man shall invade the that shall hurte the. For I have moche people in this cite.
Kai na venawh awm nyng, nak khanawh u ingawm kut am nik thlak kawm uh; ve a khawawh thlang khawzah ta nyng,” ti hy.
11 And he continued there a yeare and sixe monethes and taught them the worde of God.
Cedawngawh ce a khaw awh Paul taw kumoet awm nawh, Khawsak awi ce cawngpyi hy.
12 When Gallio was rular of the countre of Acaia the Iewes made insurreccion with one accorde agaynst Paul and brought him to the iudgement seate
Akhaia qam ukkung Gallio a awm awh, Judakhqi ing Paul ce cuuk sih unawh awidengkungkhqi venna sawi uhy.
13 saying: this felow counceleth men to worship God contrary to ye lawe.
“Ve ak thlang anaa awi ing ak kalh na Khawsa bawk aham thlang syk hy,” tina uhy.
14 And as Paul was about to open his mouth Gallio sayde vnto ye Iewes: yf it were a matter of wronge or an evyll dede (o ye Iewes) reason wolde that I shuld heare you:
Paul ing awikqawn vang a ti awh, Gallio ing Judakhqi venawh, “Nangmih Judakhqi aw, veve amak thym awi mai aw thawlh saknaak mai aw na a awm man, a thanaak kana namik awi ve ning ngaih pek khqi voei nyng.
15 but yf it be a question of wordes or of names or of youre lawe loke ye to it youre selves. For I wilbe no iudge in soche maters
Cehlai namik awikhqi, mingkhqi ingkaw namik anaa awikhqi na a awm awhtaw namimah ing awitlyk uh; kai ing cemyih awikhqi ce tlyk ham am ngaih hy nyng,” ti hy.
16 and he drave them from the seate.
Cedawngawh cekkhqi ce awidengnaak a hun awhkawng ceh sak khqi hy.
17 Then toke all the Grekes Sostenes the chefe rular of the synagoge and smote him before the iudges seate. And Gallio cared for none of tho thinges.
Cawh cekkhqi ing sinakawk ak temkung Sosthen ce tu unawh, awidengnaak a haiawh ce vyk uhy. Cehlai Gallio ing cekkhqi ce am ngai am zaak nak khqi hy.
18 Paul after this taryed there yet a good whyle and then toke his leave of the brethren and sayled thence into Ciria Priscilla and Aquila accompanyinge him. And he shore his heed in Cenchrea for he had a vowe.
Paul taw Korin khaw awh khawnghi iqyt nu awm hy. Cekcoengawh cawhkaw koeinaakhqi ce cehtaak khqi nawh Siria na ce lawng ing cet hy, Priskilla ingkaw Akuila ing bawng hy nih. Lawng ing a ceh hlanawh awi a taaknaak amyihna, Kenkhrea khaw awh a lu ce voh hy.
19 And he came to Ephesus and lefte them there: but he him selfe entred into the synagoge and reasoned with the Iewes.
Ephesa khaw a mi pha law awh Paul ing Priskilla ingkaw Akuila ce cehta hy. Amah taw sinakawk na cet nawh Judakhqi venawh khawsak awi kqawn pehy.
20 When they desyred him to tary longer tyme with the he consented not
Cekkhqi venawh khawqyt awm aham a mik kqawn peek awh, anih ing tha na hy.
21 but bad the fare well sayinge. I must nedes at this feast that cometh be in Ierusalem: but I will returne agayne vnto you yf God will. And he departed from Ephesus
Cekkhqi ce a cehtaak khqi awh, “Khawsa ing tyng hy a ti awhtaw law tlaih bit kawng nyng” tinak khqi hy.
22 and came vnto Cesarea: and ascended and saluted the congregacion and departed vnto Antioche

23 and when he had taryed there a whyle he departed. And went over all the countre of Galacia and Phrigia by order strengthynge all the disciples.

24 And a certayne Iewe named Apollos borne at Alexandria came to Ephesus an eloquent man and myghty in the scriptures.
Cawh Apollo ak mingnaak Juda phyn pynoet Alexandria thlang ce Ephesa na law hy. Anih taw awih kqawn ak thoem na awm nawh, cauk awi ak nep na ak sim thlang na awm hy.
25 The same was informed in the waye of the Lorde and he spake fervently in the sprete and taught diligently the thinges of the Lorde and knewe but the baptim of Iohn only.
Anih taw Bawipa a lam awh cuukiik na awm hawh hy, Johan baptisma doeng ni a sim hyn hlai hy, thahly doena Jesu akawng ce ak caih na thlang cuuk am kiik hy.
26 And the same began to speake boldely in the synagoge. And when Aquila and Priscilla had hearde him: they toke him vnto them and expounded vnto him the waye of God more perfectly.
Sinakawk awh qaal leek doena awi kqawn hy. Priskilla ingkaw Akuilla ing anih ak awih kqawn ce a ning zaak awh anih ce im na khy nih nawh Khawsa a lam ce ak nep cana kqawn pe hy nih.
27 And when he was disposed to goo into Acaia the brethren wrote exhortynge the disciples to receave him. After he was come thyther he holpe them moche which had beleved thorowe grace.
Apollo ce Akhaia qam na ceh a ngaih awh koeinaakhqi ing anih ce tha pe unawh, cawhkaw amik awm hubatkhqi ing anih ce ami donaak aham ca qee pe uhy. Anih a pha awh am qeennaak ing ak cangnaak thlangkhqi aham anih taw tha ak pekung na awm hy.
28 And myghtely he overcame the Iewes and that openly shewynge by the scriptures that Iesus was Christ.
Anih ingtaw a haiawh Judakhqi ce oelh khqi pheng pheng nawh, Jesu ce Khrih ni tinawh kqawn caih pehy.
