Orekma 13
1 Oasr kutu mwet palu ac mwet luti in church Antioch — inelos pa Barnabas, Simeon (su pangpang Sroalsroal), Lucius (sie mwet Cyrene), Manaen (su srikyak yorol Governor Herod), ac Saul.
Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
2 Ke elos kulansap nu sin Leum ac lalo, Ngun Mutal fahk nu selos, “Srella Barnabas ac Saul nu sik eltal in oru orekma su nga pangnoltal nu kac.”
As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.
3 Elos lalo ac pre, na elos filiya paolos facltal ac supwaltalla.
And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
4 Ke Ngun Mutal supwalla Barnabas ac Saul, eltal som nwe Seleucia, ac kal we lac nu Cyprus.
So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed to Seleucia; and from there they sailed to Cyprus.
5 Ke eltal sun siti Salamis, eltal fahkak kas lun God in iwen lolngok lun mwet Jew we. John Mark el welultal in kasreltal.
And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to their minister.
6 Eltal fahsr sasla fin tuka sac nwe ke eltal sun siti Paphos, ac sun sie mwet susfa pangpang Bar-Jesus. El sie mwet Jew, ac el sifacna fahk mu el mwet palu se.
And when they had gone through the isle to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus:
7 El kawuk nu sin governor lun tuka sac su pangpang Sergius Paulus, sie mwet na lalmwetmet. Governor el pangnolma Barnabas ac Saul nu ye mutal, mweyen el ke lohng ke kas lun God.
Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.
8 Tusruktu mwet susfa sac (su pangpang Elymas in kas Greek) el lainultal, ac el srike elan kifasulla governor liki moul in lulalfongi uh.
But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.
9 Na Saul (su pangpang pac Paul) el sessesla ke Ngun Mutal, ac el ngetang suiya mwet susfa sac
Then Saul, (who also is called Paul, ) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him.
10 ac fahk, “Kom wen nutin Devil! Kom mwet lokoalok lun ma nukewa ma wo uh. Kom nwanala na ke kain kutasrik koluk nukewa, ac pacl nukewa kom srike in ekulla ma pwaye lun God nu ke ma kikiap!
And said, O full of all subtlety and all mischief, you child of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
11 Poun Leum God ac fah putati nu fom ingena. Kom ac fah kunla, ac tia ku in liye kalem lun len uh nwe ke sie pacl God El ac fah pakiya.” In pacl sacna Elymas el pulauk ohk se fahsryak kosrala mutal, ac el forfor suk sie mwet ah in pwanul.
And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you shall be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
12 Ke governor el liye ma sikyak inge, na el lulalfongila, ac el arulana lut ke mwe luti ke Leum Jesus.
Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.
13 Paul ac mwet ma welul eltal kal som Paphos lac nu Perga, sie siti in acn Pamphylia. John Mark el tuh folokla Perga lac nu Jerusalem.
Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.
14 Eltal som Perga lac nu Antioch in Pisidia, ac ke len Sabbath eltal som nu in iwen lolngok ac muta.
But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.
15 Tukun ritiyuk tari kutu Ma Sap lal Moses ac kutu ma simusla lun mwet palu, mwet kol lun iwen lolngok uh supwala kas nu seltal ac fahk, “Mwet lili, kut lungse kowos in kaskas nu sin mwet uh, fin oasr kas in akkeye lowos nu selos.”
And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, You men and brothers, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.
16 Paul el tuyak, sralak paol mwet uh in misla, na el mutawauk in kaskas. El fahk, “Mwet Israel wiuk, oayapa mwet saya nukewa su alu nu sin God: kowos porongeyu!
Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and you that fear God, give audience.
17 God lun mwet Israel El tuh sulela mwet matu lasr meet, ac oru tuh elos in sie mutunfacl ke elos tuh moul in mwetsac in facl Egypt. God El tuh usalosla liki acn Egypt ke ku lulap lal,
The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelled as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it.
18 ac ke yac angngaul, El mutangalos in acn mwesis.
And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness.
19 El kunausla mutunfacl itkosr in facl Canaan, ac sang acn inge tuh in ma lac lun mwet lal. Ma inge nukewa orekla ke inmasrlon yac angfoko lumngaul.
And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.
20 “Tukun ma inge, El sang tuh mwet nununku in kololos nwe ke sun pacl lal Samuel, mwet palu.
And after that he gave to them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.
21 Toko, elos siyuk ke sie tokosra, ac God El eisalang Saul, wen natul Kish in sou lal Benjamin, elan tokosra lalos ke lusen yac angngaul.
And afterward they desired a king: and God gave to them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.
22 Tukun God El sisella Saul, God El akleumyalak David elan tokosra lalos. Pa inge ma God El fahk kacl: ‘Nga konauk lah David, wen natul Jesse, el kain mwet se ma nga insewowo se, su ac oru ma nukewa ma nga lungse elan oru uh.’
And when he had removed him, he raised up to them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my own heart, which shall fulfill all my will.
23 Jesus, sin fwilin tulik natul David, pa God El tuh orala in Mwet Lango nu sin mwet Israel uh, oana ke El tuh wulela kac ah.
Of this man’s seed has God according to his promise raised to Israel a Savior, Jesus:
24 Meet liki Jesus el mutawauk orekma lal, John el tuh luti nu sin mwet Israel nukewa lah enenu elos in forla liki ma koluk lalos ac baptaisla.
When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
25 Ac ke apkuran in safla orekma lal John, el tuh fahk nu sin mwet uh, ‘Kowos nunku mu su nga uh? Tia nga pa el su kowos soano uh. A kowos in porongo! El ac tuku tukuk, ac nga kupansuwol in sarukla fahluk lal uh.’
And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think you that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there comes one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.
26 “Mwet Israel wiuk su fwilin tulik natul Abraham, ac mwet saya nukewa lohm uh su alu nu sin God: pweng ke molela se inge ma nu sesr nukewa!
Men and brothers, children of the stock of Abraham, and whoever among you fears God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.
27 Tuh mwet ma muta Jerusalem, ac oayapa mwet kol lalos, tiana etu lah el pa Mwet Lango, ac elos tia pac kalem ke kas lun mwet palu ma ritiyuk ke Sabbath nukewa uh. Ne ouinge a elos oru tuh kas lun mwet palu akpwayeiyuk ke elos unilya Jesus.
For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.
28 Ac elos finne tia konauk kutena sripa fal in anwuki el kac, a elos kwafe sel Pilate elan unilya.
And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.
29 Ac tukun elos orala ma nukewa su Ma Simusla uh fahk kacl, elos eisya manol liki sakseng, ac fililya in kulyuk uh.
And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulcher.
30 Tusruktu God El akmoulyalak liki misa,
But God raised him from the dead:
31 ac ke len pus, el sikyang nu sin mwet su tuh welul in fufahsryesr lal Galilee me nu Jerusalem. Inge elos mwet loh kacl nu sin mwet Israel.
And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.
32 Ac kut tuku in use Pweng Wo ma God El tuh wulela nu sin mwet matu lasr meet ah,
And we declare to you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made to the fathers,
33 ac inge El akpwayei nu sesr su ma natulos, ke El akmoulyalak Jesus. Oana ma simla in Psalm luo uh, su fahk, ‘Kom wen nutik; Misenge nga papala tomom.’
God has fulfilled the same to us their children, in that he has raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, You are my Son, this day have I begotten you.
34 Ac pa inge ma God El fahk ke El ac akmoulyalak liki misa uh, tuh elan tia kulawi in kulyuk uh: ‘Nga fah sot nu sum mwe insewowo mutal ac pwaye Su nga tuh wulela kac nu sel David.’
And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.
35 Aok, El oayapa fahk ke sie pac verse ma fahk mu, ‘Kom fah tia lela mwet kulansap oaru lom in kulawi in kulyuk uh.’
Why he says also in another psalm, You shall not suffer your Holy One to see corruption.
36 Tuh ke pacl David el moul el akfalye ma lungse lun God, na el misa, ac pukpuki el yurin mwet matu lal, ac manol kulawi in kulyuk uh.
For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid to his fathers, and saw corruption:
37 Tusruktu el su God El akmoulyauk liki misa, el tia wi kulawi.
But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
38 Ke ma inge, mwet Israel wiuk, lela in arulana kalem suwos lah nunak munas ke ma koluk su kut fahkak nu suwos uh, ma tuku ke mwet se inge, Jesus.
Be it known to you therefore, men and brothers, that through this man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins:
39 Kowos in etu pac lah mwet nukewa su lulalfongi in el, elos sukosokla liki ma koluk nukewa su Ma Sap lal Moses uh tia ku in aksukosokyekowosla liki.
And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
40 Ke ma inge kowos liyekowosyang tuh kas inge ma fwackyak sin mwet palu fah tia tuku nu fowos:
Beware therefore, lest that come on you, which is spoken of in the prophets;
41 ‘Ngetma, kowos su aksruksrukye God! Kowos in lut ac misa! Tuh ma nga oru misenge ye motowos, Sie ma su kowos ac tia ku in lulalfongi Mwet finne aketeya nu suwos!’”
Behold, you despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which you shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it to you.
42 Ke Paul ac Barnabas illa liki iwen lolngok uh, mwet uh kwafe eltal in sifilpa foloko ke Sabbath se tok uh, ac sifilpa akyokye srumunyen ma inge.
And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles sought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.
43 Tukun mwet uh fahsrelik liki toeni sac, mwet puspis sin mwet Jew ac oayapa mwet saya ma forla ac weang alu lun mwet Jew, elos ukwalla Paul ac Barnabas. Mwet sap uh kaskas nu selos ac akkeyalos elos in oaru na in fungyang nu ke kulang lun God.
Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
44 Ke Sabbath se tok ah, apkuran mwet nukewa in siti uh tuku in lohng kas lun Leum.
And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.
45 Ke mwet Jew elos liye pusiyen mwet uh elos sokyak na pwaye. Elos sramsram lainul Paul ac sufanul.
But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spoke against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
46 Ne ouinge a fahkak lal Paul ac Barnabas arulana pulaik liki meet ah, ac eltal fahk: “Kowos pa kut enenu na in fahkak kas lun God nu se oemeet. Tuh ke kowos pilesru ac sifacna nunku mu kowos sufal in eis moul ma pahtpat, kut ac fahsr liki kowos ac som nu yurin mwet pegan uh. (aiōnios g166)
Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing you put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, see, we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
47 Tuh pa inge ma Leum God El sapkin nu sesr: ‘Nga oakikomi tuh kom in sie kalem se nu sin mwet pegan, Tuh faclu nufon fah ku in moliyukla.’”
For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set you to be a light of the Gentiles, that you should be for salvation to the ends of the earth.
48 Ke mwet pegan elos lohng, elos arulana engan ac kaksakin pweng wo lun God; ac elos su solla tari nu ke moul ma pahtpat elos mwet lulalfongila. (aiōnios g166)
And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed. (aiōnios g166)
49 Kas lun Leum uh fahsrelik in acn nukewa in polo acn sac.
And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.
50 Tusruktu mwet Jew elos purakak nunak lun mwet kol in siti sac, oayapa mutan kacto sin mwet pegan su wi pac alu nu sin God uh. Elos mutawauk in kalyael Paul ac Barnabas, ac luselosla liki acn selos uh.
But the Jews stirred up the devout and honorable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their coasts.
51 Na mwet sap uh osrokla kutkut ke nialos in akkalemye lah elos lain mwet in acn sac, na elos som nu Iconium.
But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.
52 Mwet lulalfongi in Antioch elos arulana sessesla ke engan ac ke Ngun Mutal.
And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.
