Acts 22
1 “Brothers and fathers, listen to my defense which I will now make to you.”
“Bhai khan, aru baba khan, moi etiya nijor laga safai te apnikhan usorte kotha kobole ase, etu ke huni bhi.”
2 When the crowd heard Paul speak to them in the Hebrew language, they became quiet. He said,
Aru jitia tai Yehudi bhasa te koise, taikhan arubi ekdom chup thaki jaise. Titia tai aru koise,
3 “I am a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but educated in this city at the feet of Gamaliel. I was instructed according to the strict ways of the law of our fathers. I am zealous for God, just as all of you are today.
“Moi Yehudi ase Cilicia laga Tarsus sheher te jonom luwa, etu sheher pora Gamaliel laga theng te bohi kene amikhan laga baba khan laga niyom thik pora sikhi loise, aru Isor phale jor dikena aji apnikhan jineka kori ase tineka kori ahisele.
4 I persecuted this Way to the death, binding up and delivering them to prison both men and women,
Aru mota, maiki, hobi, etu dhorom Rasta te juwa khan ke bondhi ghor te dikene morai bhi di thakise,
5 as the high priest and all the elders can bear witness. I received letters from them for the brothers in Damascus, and went there to bring them back in bonds to Jerusalem in order for them to be punished.
etu kotha cholawta, bura khan aru sabha bhi sakhi dibo pare, moi taikhan pora ami laga bhai khan Damascus te thaka khan logote chithi likhi diya utu bhi loise, karone moi jai kene ta te kunba thakile dhori kene Jerusalem te ani taikhan ke sajai dibo bhabise.
6 It happened that when I was traveling and nearing Damascus, about noon suddenly a great light from heaven began to shine around me.
Etu homoi moi Damascus punchibole usor hoi asele, titia din nisena homoi asele, aru sorgo pora achanak ekta dangor puhor ahi moi usorte thaki jaise.
7 I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to me, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?'
Aru moi matite giri jaise, aru ekta awaj moike kowa hunise, ‘Saul, Saul, kele tumi Moike digdar kori ase?
8 I answered, 'Who are you, Lord?' He said to me, 'I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting.'
Karone moi hudise, ‘Probhu Apuni kun ase?’ Aru Tai moike koise, ‘Moi Nazareth Jisu ase, junke tumi dukh digdar di ase.’
9 Those who were with me saw the light, but they did not understand the voice of him who spoke to me.
Aru jun manu moi logot ahise, taikhan bhi puhor to dikhise aru bhoi korise, kintu taikhan moike kotha kowa laga awaj to huna nai.
10 I said, 'What should I do, Lord?' The Lord said to me, 'Arise and go into Damascus; there you will be told everything that you must do.'
Titia moi koise, ‘Moi ki koribo lage Probhu?’ Aru Probhu moike koise, ‘Uthi kene Damascus te jabi, aru ta te tumi ki-ki koribo lage etu sob tumike koi dibo.’
11 I could not see because of that light's brightness, and being led by the hands of those who were with me, I came into Damascus.
Aru utu puhor bisi huwa karone moi eku dikhibo para nai, titia moi laga sathi khan laga hath dhurikena he moi Damascus te ahise.
12 There I met a man named Ananias, a devout man according to the law and well spoken of by all the Jews who lived there.
Titia Ananias koi kene ekjon asele, tai niyom mani thaka ekjon asele, aru ta te thaka Yehudi khan bisi sonman kori thaka manu ase.
13 He came to me, stood by me, and said, 'Brother Saul, receive your sight.' In that very hour I saw him.
Tai ami laga usorte ahikena koise, ‘Bhai Saul, apuni laga suku dikhi bhi.’ Aru etu homoi te moi dikhibole parise aru taike dikhise.
14 Then he said, 'The God of our fathers has chosen you to know his will, to see the Righteous One, and to hear the voice coming from his own mouth.
Titia tai koise, ami laga baba khan laga Isor he tumike basi loise, tumi he tai itcha ke janibole aru Dharmikta Jonke sabo paribole aru tai nijor mukh pora kowa awaj ke huni bole.
15 For you shall be a witness for him to all men about what you have seen and heard.
Kelemane tumi ki dikhise aru ki hunise etu sob manu ke koi dibole tai sakhi bonai dise.
16 Now why are you waiting? Arise, be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name.'
Tinehoile apuni etiya bhi kele bohi ase? Uthi kene baptizma loi lobi, aru prathana kori kene tai naam pora tumi laga paap dhui dibi.’
17 After I had returned to Jerusalem, and while I was praying in the temple, it happened that I was given a vision.
Titia moi aru Jerusalem te ahi kene mondoli te prathana kori asele, titia moi Atma te bhorta hoi kene darshan dikhise.
18 I saw him say to me, 'Hurry and leave Jerusalem quickly, because they will not accept your testimony about me.'
Aru moi Probhu ke dikhise, Tai moike koise, ‘Joldi Jerusalem chari kene jabi, kelemane taikhan Ami laga kotha tumi gawahi diya ke namanibo.’
19 I said, 'Lord, they themselves know that I imprisoned and beat those who believed in you in every synagogue.
Karone moi koise, ‘Probhu, moi pora biswasi khan mondoli te dhurikena bondhi ghor te diya aru mari thaka taikhan jani ase.
20 When the blood of Stephen your witness was spilled, I also was standing by and agreeing, and I was guarding the cloaks of those who killed him.'
Aru jitia Apuni nimite mori juwa Stephen ke khun giraikena morai di thakise, ta te moi bhi thakise, aru jun manu khan pora taike morai dise utu khan laga kapra ke moi rukhi thakise.’
21 But he said to me, 'Go, because I will send you far away to the Gentiles.'”
Titia Tai moike koise, ‘Jabi, kelemane moi tumike yate pora dur Porjati khan logot pathai dibo.’
22 They listened to him until he said this. Then they shouted and said, “Away with such a fellow from the earth, for it is not right that he should live.”
Aru taikhan etu kotha kowa tak taike huni thakise. Etu pichete taikhan awaj uthaikene hala kori koise, “Eneka manu ke prithibi pora hatai dibi, kelemane tai jinda thaki bole thik nohoi.”
23 As they were shouting, throwing off their cloaks, and throwing dust into the air,
Titia taikhan hala kori kene taikhan laga kapra khan ulai phelaise, aru upor hawa te dhul urai thakise,
24 the chief captain commanded Paul to be brought into the fortress. He ordered that he should be questioned with scourging, so that he himself might know why they were shouting against him like that.
titia mukhyo henedhikari pora Paul ke bondh kora jagate loi jabole hukum dise, aru manu khan kele taike iman ghusa kori ase etu janibole taike chabuk pora mari kene bhal pora hudibole koise.
25 When they had tied him up with the thongs, Paul said to the centurion who was standing by, “Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman and who has not been put on trial?”
Aru taikhan jitia taike chabuk mari bole taiyar korise, Paul pora tai usorte khara thaka henapoti ke koise, “Rome manu ke eku golti nathaki kene bhi chabuk mari bole niyom te ase?”
26 When the centurion heard this, he went to the chief captain and told him, saying, “What are you about to do? For this man is a Roman citizen.”
Jitia henapoti etu kotha hunise tai mukhyo henedhikari logote jai kene koise, “Apuni eneka kele kori ase? Tai Rome laga nagrik ase.”
27 The chief captain came and said to him, “Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?” Paul said, “Yes.”
Titia henedhikari tai logot te ahikena koise, “Moike kobi, tumi Rome laga nagrik ase?” Paul koise “Hoi”.
28 The chief captain answered, “It was only with a large amount of money that I acquired citizenship.” But Paul said, “I was born a Roman citizen.”
Etu huni kene mukhyo henedhikari pora koise, “Moi to Rome laga nagrik hobole bisi toka poisa pora kinise.” Kintu Paul koise, “Moi to jonom pora he Rome laga nagrik ase.”
29 Then the men who were going to question him left him immediately. The chief captain also was afraid, when he learned that Paul was a Roman citizen, because he had tied him up.
Titia jun taike mari bole thakise, taikhan loge- loge tai usor pora joldi hati jaise. Aru kitia mukhyo henedhikari bhi Paul to Rome laga nagrik ase koi kene janise, tai bhi bhoi khaise kele koile tai pora Paul ke dhori kene bandh kora karone.
30 On the next day, the chief captain wanted to know the truth about the Jews' accusations against Paul. So he untied his bonds and ordered the chief priests and all the council to meet. Then he brought Paul down and placed him in their midst.
Dusra din Yehudi khan pora ki nimite Paul ke doshi korise, etu janibole mukhyo henedhikari pora Paul ke khuli dise, aru mukhyo purohit khan aru sabhakhan ke joma kori bole hukum dise, aru Paul ke loi kene taikhan age te khara kori dise.
