Acts 13
1 Now there were in Antioch, in the Church there--as Prophets and teachers--barnabas, Symeon surnamed 'the black,' Lucius the Cyrenaean, Manaen (who was Herod the Tetrarch's foster-brother), and Saul.
Nene nanya ligozi na kagbirin Antakiya, anan liru nin nnu Kutelle nin nanan dursuzu yita ku. Tisa mine wa di Barnaba, Simeon (na iwa yicughe Niger), Lukiyus unitin Karita, Manain (unan liwalin gwanan Hiridus kukune me), nin Shawulu.
2 While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for Me, now at once, Barnabas and Saul, for the work to which I have called them."
Kube na ndin zazinu Kutelle nin sun kotu nayi, Uruhu Ulau woro, “Feren ni Barnabas ku nin Shawulu, isu katwa kanga na nna yicila nani bara kanin.”
3 So, after fasting and prayer and the laying on of hands, they let them go.
Na ligozen mmala ukotu nayi nin lira, i wunno nani likoot inin tarrda nani acara.
4 They therefore, being thus sent out by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleuceia, and from there sailed to Cyprus.
Ame Barnabas nin Shawulu suu ubiyayya nin Ruhu Ulau itunna i nyi udu kusarin kilikiya; unuzu kikane idi tunun udu nlong lidan nanya kurawan kubrus.
5 Having reached Salamis, they began to announce God's Message in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John as their assistant.
Kubi na iwa di nanya kagbir salamis, ibelle uliru Kutelle nanya kutyi nlirag, na Yahudawa, inung tutun yita nan Yohanna Markus nafo unan buunu mine.
6 When they had gone through the whole length of the island as far as Paphos, they there met with a Jewish magician and false prophet, Bar-Jesus by name,
Kubi na inya udu vat lidan kiyitik nmyen, udu Bafusa, idi se umong unan nizu tikanlang, ku Yahudawa, unan su kinu nin nnu Kutelle, ulenge na lisa me Bar Yesu.
7 who was a friend of the Proconsul Sergius Paulus. The Proconsul was a man of keen intelligence. He sent for Barnabas and Saul, and asked to be told God's Message.
Unan nizu tikankane munu liti min mukadas, Sargis, nin Bulus unit ujinjin, unit une wasu manyardang nin Barnabas a Bulus, bara adinin su alanzauliru Kutelle.
8 But Elymas (or 'the Magician,' for such is the meaning of the name) opposed them, and tried to prevent the Proconsul from accepting the faith.
Ame Alima unan “nizu tikankang” (nanere lisa me di) asu ivira nanghinu, asa likum nworu a kpiliya Sarijiyus ku nanya nyinnu sa uyenu me.
9 Then Saul, who is also called Paul, was filled with the Holy Spirit, and, fixing his eyes on Elymas,
Ame Shawulu, ulenge na idin yicu Bulus, awa kullun nin Ruhu Ulau a borioghe iyizi
10 said, "You who are full of every kind of craftiness and unscrupulous cunning--you son of the Devil and foe to all that is right--will you never cease to misrepresent the straight paths of the Lord?
anin woro, “Fe gono shaitan, ukulun nin kinu a karusuzo, nin magunta, fe unan nivira nin vat ko iiyeme imon icine, na uba sunu ukpilizu nimon idert in Cikilari ba sa iba sunu?
11 The Lord's hand is now upon you, and you will be blind for a time and unable to see the light of day." Instantly there fell upon him a mist and a darkness, and, as he walked about, he begged people to lead him by the hand.
Nene yene ucara Cikilari di kitene fe, uba da lawu uduu. na iba yenu uwui ba nin kubi baat.” Dedei luwutun nin nsirti, a cizina kiti, intiri nanut ikifo ghe ucara.
12 Then the Proconsul, seeing what had happened, believed, being struck with amazement at the teaching of the Lord.
Kubi na ame Sarjisu nyene ile imon na idi, ame yinna, bara awa kifo unuu nin ndursuzu kitene Cikilari.
13 From Paphos, Paul and his party put out to sea and sailed to Perga in Pamphylia. John, however, left them and returned to Jerusalem.
Nene Bulus nan nadondon me, kaffina unuzu Bafus udu Perga nanya Pamfiliya, ame Yohanna suuna nai a kpila Urushelima.
14 But they themselves, passing through from Perga, came to Antioch in Pisidia. Here, on the Sabbath day, they went into the synagogue and sat down.
Bulus nan nadondon me, cinna unuzu Bafos udak Antakiya Nbisidiya. Kikane inya udu kutyi nlirag liyiri nassabar idi soo kikane.
15 After the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the Wardens of the synagogue sent word to them. "Brethren," they said, "if you have anything encouraging to say to the people, speak."
Kubi na ibelle inyerte nduka, nin na nan nliru nin nnu Kutelle, udia kutyi nlirag too nani nin kadura a woro, “Linuana, andi idinin nkan kadura, kan kpinu nagang kiti nanite kikane, bellen kanin.”
16 So Paul rose, and motioning with his hand for silence, said, "Israelites, and you others who fear God, pay attention to me.
Bara Bulus fita ayisina a zillino liti me, a woro, “Annit Israila nin nalenge na idin zazinu Kutelle, lanzan.
17 The God of this people of Israel chose our forefathers, and made the people great during their stay in Egypt, until with wondrous power He brought them out from that land.
Kutelle nanit ale Israila wa feer acif bite ata nani anit gbardang, kubi na iwa so nmyin masar, nin nacara nakara awa nutun nani kitee.
18 For a period of about forty years, He fed them, like a nurse, in the Desert.
Udu akus akut anas, ayita nanghinu nanya kusho.
19 Then, after overthrowing seven nations in the land of Canaan, He divided that country among them as their inheritance for about four hundred and fifty years;
Kubi na awa mallu nin nipin kuzor, nanyan nmyin kaana, anaa anit bite nmyin mine miso nani ugadu.
20 and afterwards He gave them judges down to the time of the Prophet Samuel.
Vat nile imone iwasu inin ukatu nakus akalt anas nin nakut ataun, kubi nile imone vat, Kutelle na nani unan wucu kidegen udu Samaila unan nliru nin nnu Kutelle.
21 Next they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a Benjamite, who reigned forty years.
Mammal nilele, anite tirino ini nani ugo, Kutelle na nani Saul ku usaun kish, unit unuzu likuran Banyami, bara kubi nakus akut annas.
22 After removing him, He raised up David to be their king, to whom He also bore witness when He said, "'I have found David the son of Jesse, a man I love, who will obey all My commands.'
Na kutelle nkalaghe nanya nanan tigo, a yauna Dauda ku aso nani ugo, uwaso kitene Dauda kutelle wa woro, 'Nnase Dauda usaun Jesse aso unit nayi nighe; aba su vat nile imon na ndinin su we.'
23 "It is from among David's descendants that God, in fulfilment of His promise, has raised up a Saviour for Israel, even Jesus.
Unuzu kuwunu nnit ule Kutelle ba da ni nonon Israila ku unan tucu, Yesu nafo na anusu alikawali nsu we.
24 Before the coming of Jesus, John had proclaimed to all the people of Israel a baptism of repentance.
Uleli imone wa cizin kube, kamin Yesu dak, Yohanna wa cizin ubellun nshimtinnu ndiu kutyin, udu kiti nanit Israila vat.
25 But John, towards the end of his career, repeatedly asked the people, "'What do you suppose me to be? I am not the Christ. But there is One coming after me whose sandal I am not worthy to unfasten.'
Na Yohanna wadi malizunu katuwa me, aworo, 'Anung din su meng ghari? Na mere ba, ama lanzan, umong din cinu udak kidung nighe, akwatak nabunu me na meng batin nbunku ba.'
26 "Brethren, descendants of the family of Abraham, and all among you who fear God, to us has this Message of salvation been sent.
Linuana, nono nanya kuwunu Ibrahim, nin nanya mine na idin dortu Kutelle, kiti bitere, kadura nbellen nnan tucu iwa tuu nari mun.
27 For the people of Jerusalem and their rulers, by the judgement they pronounced on Jesus, have actually fulfilled the predictions of the Prophets which are read Sabbath after Sabbath, through ignorance of those predictions and of Him.
Bara inughe na iwa sosin nanyan Urushelima nan nago mine, na iwa yinin ghe ba, sa iyinin tiwui nanan nliru nnu Kutelle na isa ibelle ko ayeme assabar, ina ni na Kullo ubellu we, kadure nti Yesu unan kul.
28 Without having found Him guilty of any capital offence they urged Pilate to have Him put to death;
Vat nani na iwase imomon icaut kiti me nworu akuu ba, itirino Bilatus ku nworu amollu ghe.
29 and when they had carried out everything which had been written about Him, they took Him down from the cross and laid Him in a tomb.
Kubi na imala vat nile imon na ina nyertu liti me itoltunghe kitene kutca, inonko ghe nanya kissek.
30 "But God raised Him from the dead.
Amma Kutelle wa fya ghe nanya na nan kul.
31 And, after a few days, He appeared to the people who had gone up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem and are now witnesses concerning Him to the Jews.
Anit gbardang wa yenje ghe nanya nayiri gbardang na lenge na i di ligowe nan ghe na i wa nuzun Galile ne indu Urushelima. Anit alelere iyizi naba me kiti nanite.
32 And we bring you the Good News about the promise made to our forefathers,
Bara nani ti da minu nin liru unang imbeleng nciu nnuu ulenge na iwa su an kaa bite unin uworsu:
33 that God has amply fulfilled it to our children in raising up Jesus; as it is also written in the second Psalm, 'Thou art My Son: to-day I have become Thy Father.'
Kutelle na ceo nari uciu nlirne, arik nono mine, nworu Kutelle wa fya Yesu ku kisssek.
34 And as to His having raised Him from among the dead, never again to be in the position of one soon to return to decay, He speaks thus: 'I will give you the holy and trustworthy promises made to David.'
Ununu kidegen nworu ana fya ghe nanya na nan kul bara kidowo me wa yene ubiju, amini wa su uliru nenge, 'Mma nifi nkoli milau in nanda milau.'
35 Because in another Psalm also He says, 'Thou wilt not give up Thy Holy One to undergo decay.'
Unnare nati ana kuru abelle nan nya namong avu tutung: 'Na una yinnu unit ulau fe a yene ubiju ba.'
36 For David, after having been useful to his own generation in accordance with God's purpose, did fall asleep, was gathered to his forefathers, and did undergo decay.
Bara na kimal na Dauda wa su Kutelle katwa kubi kiyi mine gegeme kanin aku. iwa aoroghe nin na cif me, amini wa biju,
37 But He whom God raised to life underwent no decay.
amma ame ulenge na Kutelle wa fya Kissek na awa yene ubiju ba.
38 "Understand therefore, brethren, that through this Jesus forgiveness of sins is announced to you;
Linuana na iyinnin ilele, unuzu nlele ina sun nari unuu nbeleng nkussu nalapi.
39 and in Him every believer is absolved from all offences, from which you could not be absolved under the Law of Moses.
Bara ame vat ule na ayinni ma se usurtu nan nye vat ule na ti tisse usurtu mun ba.
40 Beware, then, lest what is spoken in the Prophets should come true of you:
Bara ceon nibinai kiti kirum bara imon ile na a annabawa na belin kitene i wa minu ba.
41 'Behold, you despisers, be astonished and perish, because I am carrying on a work in your time--a work which you will utterly refuse to believe, though it be fully declared to you.'"
Yeneng, anung anan nanzu nimon nafi fiu kifo minu inana. Bara meng din su katwa nayiri mine, Katwaa kango na ima yinnu mun ba andi ma umong ma belin minu ubeleng kanin.'”
42 As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people earnestly begged to have all this repeated to them on the following Sabbath.
Na Bulus nin Barnabas nnyaa, anite fo nani acara nworu ikuru ida belu nani uliru urum une Asabar ncin dak.
43 And, when the congregation had broken up, many of the Jews and of the devout converts from heathenism continued with Paul and Barnabas, who talked to them and urged them to hold fast to the grace of God.
Na uzuru kilari nlire nmala, Ayahudawa gbardang nin namon anan salin dortu Kutelle dofino Bulus ku nin Barnabas, alenge na iwa su nani uliru i woro nani ili ubun nin cin nan nya nbolu Kutelle.
44 On the next Sabbath almost the whole population of the city came together to hear the Lord's Message.
Assabar nda duru anan kagbiri vat da zuro inan lanza uliru Ncikilari.
45 Seeing the crowds, the Jews, filled with angry jealousy, opposed Paul's statements and abused him.
Na Ayahudawa in yene ligozi nanite, ikulo nin shina isu uliru uganbalang nin nilenge na Bulus nbelle izoguzo ghe.
46 Then, throwing off all reserve, Paul and Barnabas said, "We were bound to proclaim God's Message to you first. But since you spurn it and judge yourselves to be unworthy of the Life of the Ages--well, we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
Amma Bulus nin Barnabas su uliru nin nayi akone i woro, “Uso gbas i cizin ubelu anughe ku uliru Kutelle. Na iyene nworu anung nfillo unin ina nin yira ati mine na ucaun ise ulai nsa ligan ba, yeneng, tima kpillu kiti na wurmi. (aiōnios g166)
47 For such is the Lord's command to us. "'I have placed Thee,' He says of Christ, 'as a light to the Gentiles, in order that Thou mayest be a Saviour as far as the remotest parts of the earth.'"
Bara nanere Cikilari na bellin nari, aworo, 'Nna ceo minu nafo nkanan ucin du kiti na wurmi, nworo adak nin adak nin tucu nan nyan vat niti nan nya in yii vat'”
48 The Gentiles listened with delight and extolled the Lord's Message; and all who were pre-destined to the Life of the Ages believed. (aiōnios g166)
Na Awurme nlanza nani, ilanza mmang kang izazina lissa Ncikilari. Ngbardang nalenge na ina fere nani bara ulai nsa ligang wa yinnin. (aiōnios g166)
49 So the Lord's Message spread through the whole district.
Uliru Kutelle wa malu kiti vat nan nya nmine.
50 But the Jews influenced the gentlewomen of rank who worshipped with them, and also the leading men in the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas and drove them out of the district.
Amma Ayahudawa su ubeleng nawani anan ni nati alenge na idi nin nimon icine. Ileli imon ta nworu ipiziru umonlun Bulus ku nin Barnabas iko nani inutuno nani unuzu kipin mine.
51 But they shook off the dust from their feet as a protest against them and came to Iconium;
Amma Bulus nin Barnabas kotuno lidau nabunu mine liso nati mine. Inya ucindu kipin Ikoniya.
52 and as for the disciples, they were more and more filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
Nono kadura wa kulo nin nayi abo a Uruhu Ulau.
