Acts 21
1 When we had departed from them and had set sail, we came with a straight course to Cos, and the next day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.
Ary rehefa tafasarika taminy izahay, dia niondrana an-tsambo ka nizotra nankany Kosy; ary nony ampitso dia tonga tao Rodo, dia niala tao nankany Patara;
2 Having found a ship crossing over to Phoenicia, we went aboard and set sail.
ary nony nahita sambo nita ho any Foinika izahay, dia nifindra sambo teo ka lasa nandeha.
3 When we had come in sight of Cyprus, leaving it on the left hand, we sailed to Syria and landed at Tyre, for the ship was there to unload her cargo.
Ary nony nahatsinjo an’ i Kyprosy izahay, dia nandalo azy tamin’ ny ankavia ka nankany Syria, dia niantsona tao Tyro; fa tao no notaterina ny entan’ ny sambo.
4 Having found disciples, we stayed there seven days. These said to Paul through the Spirit that he should not go up to Jerusalem.
Ary nony nitady ny mpianatra izahay ka nahita azy, dia nitoetra teo hafitoana; ary izy ireo dia voatsindrin’ ny Fanahy hilaza amin’ i Paoly mba tsy hiakatra any Jerosalema.
5 When those days were over, we departed and went on our journey. They all, with wives and children, brought us on our way until we were out of the city. Kneeling down on the beach, we prayed.
Ary rehefa tapitra izany andro izany, dia niala izahay ka lasa nandeha; ary izy rehetra mbamin’ ny vadiny aman-janany dia nanatitra anay hatrany ivelan’ ny tanàna; ary nandohalika teo amoron-dranomasina izahay ka nivavaka;
6 After saying goodbye to each other, we went on board the ship, and they returned home again.
ary rehefa nifanao veloma izahay, dia nirotsaka an-tsambo; fa izy ireo kosa niverina nody.
7 When we had finished the voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais. We greeted the brothers and stayed with them one day.
Ary ny niafaran’ ny nandehananay an-tsambo dia tany Tolemaia, rehefa avy tany Tyro; ary niarahaba ny rahalahy izahay ka nitoetra teo aminy indray andro.
8 On the next day, we who were Paul’s companions departed and came to Caesarea. We entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.
Ary nony ampitso dia niala teo izahay ka tonga tany Kaisaria ary niditra tao an-tranon’ i Filipo evanjelista, izay anankiray tamin’ izy fito lahy, dia nitoetra tao aminy izahay.
9 Now this man had four virgin daughters who prophesied.
Ary izany lehilahy izany dia nanana zanakavavy virijina efatra izay naminany.
10 As we stayed there some days, a certain prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.
Ary raha nitoetra tao andro maro izahay, dia nisy mpaminany anankiray atao hoe Agabo nidina avy tany Jodia.
11 Coming to us and taking Paul’s belt, he bound his own feet and hands, and said, “The Holy Spirit says: ‘So the Judeans at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt, and will deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.’”
Ary rehefa tonga tao aminay izy, dia noraisiny ny fehin-kibon’ i Paoly, ka namatorany ny tongotra aman-tànan’ ny tenany, dia hoy izy; Izao no lazain’ ny Fanahy Masìna: Toy izao no hamatoran’ ny Jiosy any Jerosalema ny lehilahy tompon’ ity fehin-kibo ity, ka hatolony ho eo an-tànan’ ny jentilisa izy.
12 When we heard these things, both we and the people of that place begged him not to go up to Jerusalem.
Ary raha vao renay izany, dia nangataka taminy izahay mbamin’ izay nonina teo mba tsy hiakarany any Jerosalema.
13 Then Paul answered, “What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Yeshua.”
Fa Paoly namaly ka nanao hoe: Nahoana ianareo no mitomany ka mampangorakoraka ny foko? Fa vonona aho tsy ny hafatotra ihany, fa ny ho faty any Jerosalema koa aza mba ho voninahitry ny anaran’ i Jesosy Tompo.
14 When he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, “The Lord’s will be done.”
Ary nony tsy nanaiky izy, dia nitsahatra izahay ka nanao hoe: Aoka ny sitrapon’ ny Tompo no hatao.
15 After these days we took up our baggage and went up to Jerusalem.
Ary rehefa afaka izany andro izany, dia nifehy entana izahay ka niakatra nankany Jerosalema.
16 Some of the disciples from Caesarea also went with us, bringing one Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we would stay.
Dia niaraka taminay koa ny mpianatra sasany avy tany Kaisaria, izay nitondra anay ho any amin’ i Menasona, olona avy any Kyprosy sady mpianatra maintimolaly, izay nokasainay hitoerana.
17 When we had come to Jerusalem, the brothers received us gladly.
Ary nony tonga tany Jerosalema izahay, dia nandray anay tamin’ ny fifaliana ny rahalahy.
18 The day following, Paul went in with us to Jacob; and all the elders were present.
Ary nony ampitso dia niara-niditra tany amin’ i Jakoba izahay sy Paoly; ary vory teo ny loholona rehetra.
19 When he had greeted them, he reported one by one the things which God had worked amongst the Gentiles through his ministry.
Ary rehefa niarahaba azy Paoly, dia nilaza tsirairay ny zavatra rehetra izay efa nampanaovin’ Andriamanitra azy tany amin’ ny jentilisa izy.
20 They, when they heard it, glorified God. They said to him, “You see, brother, how many thousands there are amongst the Judeans of those who have believed, and they are all zealous for the Torah.
Ary rehefa nandre izany ireo, dia nankalaza an’ Andriamanitra; ary hoy koa izy tamin’ i Paoly: Hitanao, rahalahy, fa tsy omby alinalina ny Jiosy izay efa mino; ary fatra-pitàna ny lalàna izy rehetra,
21 They have been informed about you, that you teach all the Jews who are amongst the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children and not to walk after the customs.
sady efa novokisan’ olona ny aminao, fa ianao, hono, mampianatra ny Jiosy rehetra izay any amin’ ny jentilisa hahafoy an’ i Mosesy ka mandrara azy tsy hamora ny zaza na hanaraka ny fanaon-drazana.
22 What then? The assembly must certainly meet, for they will hear that you have come.
Ahoana ary no izy? Tsy maintsy ho reny ny nahatongavanao.
23 Therefore do what we tell you. We have four men who have taken a vow.
Ary noho izany dia ataovy izao lazainay aminao izao: Misy efa-dahy etỳ izay nivoady;
24 Take them and purify yourself with them, and pay their expenses for them, that they may shave their heads. Then all will know that there is no truth in the things that they have been informed about you, but that you yourself also walk keeping the Torah.
raiso ireo ka manadiova ny tenanao miaraka aminy, ary mandoava ny vola ho lany mba hanaratany ny lohany, ka dia ho fantatry ny olona rehetra fa tsinontsinona izay zavatra namokisana azy ny aminao, fa ianao aza mandeha manaraka ny lalàna kosa.
25 But concerning the Gentiles who believe, we have written our decision that they should observe no such thing, except that they should keep themselves from food offered to idols, from blood, from strangled things, and from sexual immorality.”
Fa ny amin’ ny jentilisa izay efa mino, dia efa nampitondra epistily izahay nandidy azy hifady ny hena aterina amin’ ny sampy sy ny rà sy ny zavatra kendaina ary ny fijangajangana.
26 Then Paul took the men, and the next day purified himself and went with them into the temple, declaring the fulfilment of the days of purification, until the offering was offered for every one of them.
Dia noraisin’ i Paoly ireo lehilahy ireo, ary nony ampitso dia nanadio ny tenany niaraka taminy izy ka niditra teo an-kianjan’ ny tempoly, nanambara ny fahatanterahan’ ny andro fahadiovana mandra-panatitra ny fanatitra ho an’ ny isan-dahy.
27 When the seven days were almost completed, the Jews from Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the multitude and laid hands on him,
Ary rehefa ho tapitra ny hafitoana, dia nahita an’ i Paoly teo an-kianjan’ ny tempoly ny Jiosy avy tany Asia, ka nampikotaba ny vahoaka rehetra izy sady nisambotra an’ i Paoly,
28 crying out, “Men of Israel, help! This is the man who teaches all men everywhere against the people, and the Torah, and this place. Moreover, he also brought Greeks into the temple and has defiled this holy place!”
ka dia niantso hoe: Avia, ry lehilahy Isiraely, fa io no lehilahy mampianatra ny olona rehetra ombieniombieny manohitra ny olona Isiraely sy ny lalàna sy ity fitoerana ity, sady nampiditra jentilisa teo an-kianjan’ ny tempoly izy ka nandoto ity fitoerana masìna.
29 For they had seen Trophimus the Ephesian, with him in the city, and they supposed that Paul had brought him into the temple.
(fa efa hitany rahateo fa niaraka taminy tao an-tanàna Trofimo Efesiana, ka nataony fa nampidirin’ i Paoly teo an-kianjan’ ny tempoly izy).
30 All the city was moved and the people ran together. They seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple. Immediately the doors were shut.
Dia nifanaritaka be ihany ny tao an-tanàna rehetra, ka nihazakazaka nivory ny olona; ary Paoly dia nosamboriny ka nosarihany hiala eo an-kianjan’ ny tempoly; ary niaraka tamin’ izay dia narindrina ny vavahady.
31 As they were trying to kill him, news came up to the commanding officer of the regiment that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.
Ary raha nitady hamono azy ny olona, dia nisy teny nakarina tany amin’ ny mpifehy arivo tamin’ ny antokon’ ny miaramila nilaza fa mikotaba avokoa Jerosalema rehetra;
32 Immediately he took soldiers and centurions and ran down to them. They, when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, stopped beating Paul.
ary niaraka tamin’ izay dia naka miaramila sy kapiteny izy ka nihazakazaka nidina nankeo aminy; ary raha nahita ny mpifehy arivo sy ny miaramila ny olona, dia nitsahatra tsy nikapoka an’ i Paoly.
33 Then the commanding officer came near, arrested him, commanded him to be bound with two chains, and enquired who he was and what he had done.
Ary ny mpifehy arivo nanakaiky, dia nisambotra azy ka nandidy hamatotra ary tamin’ ny gadra roa, dia nanontany hoe: Iza moa izy, ary inona moa no nataony?
34 Some shouted one thing and some another, amongst the crowd. When he couldn’t find out the truth because of the noise, he commanded him to be brought into the barracks.
Ary ny sasany tamin’ ny olona maro niantso mafy nilaza zavatra iray, ary ny sasany kosa zavatra hafa; ary rehefa tsy azony nofantarina izay marina noho ny fikotranana, dia nasainy nentina ho any anati-rova Paoly.
35 When he came to the stairs, he was carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the crowd;
Ary rehefa tonga teo amin’ ny ambaratonga izy, dia nobetain’ ny miaramila noho ny fifanosehan’ ny olona;
36 for the multitude of the people followed after, crying out, “Away with him!”
fa ny olona maro nanaraka ka niantso hoe: Vonoy ilehio!
37 As Paul was about to be brought into the barracks, he asked the commanding officer, “May I speak to you?” He said, “Do you know Greek?
Ary rehefa nentiny tany anati-rova Paoly, dia hoy izy tamin’ ny mpifehy arivo: Mahazo miteny aminao va aho? Dia hoy izy: Mahay teny Grika va ianao?
38 Aren’t you then the Egyptian who before these days stirred up to sedition and led out into the wilderness the four thousand men of the Assassins?”
Moa tsy ianao va ilay Egyptiana, izay nampikomy ny olona fahiny ka nitarika ny efatra arivo lahy mpitondra lefom-pohy nankany an-efitra?
39 But Paul said, “I am a Jew from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no insignificant city. I beg you, allow me to speak to the people.”
Fa hoy Paoly: Izaho Jiosy avy any Tarsosy any Kilikia, tompon-tany amin’ izay tanàna tsy kely laza; koa trarantitra ianao, aoka aho mba hiteny amin’ ny olona.
40 When he had given him permission, Paul, standing on the stairs, beckoned with his hand to the people. When there was a great silence, he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, saying,
Ary Paoly, rehefa navelany, dia nitsangana teo amin’ ny ambaratonga ka nanofa tanana tamin’ ny olona. Ary rehefa nangina tsara ny olona, dia niteny mafy tamin’ ny teny Hebreo izy ka nanao hoe:
