Acts 16
1 Ó sì wá sí Dabe àti Lysra: sí kíyèsi i, ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn kan wà níbẹ̀, tí a ń pè ní Timotiu, ọmọ obìnrin kan tí í ṣe Júù, tí ó gbàgbọ́; ṣùgbọ́n Giriki ní baba rẹ̀.
And he came also to Derbe and to Lystra: and behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewess that believed; but his father was a Greek.
2 Ẹni tí a ròhìn rẹ̀ ní rere lọ́dọ̀ àwọn arákùnrin tí ó wà ní Lysra àti Ikoniomu.
The same was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium.
3 Òun ni Paulu fẹ́ kí ó bá òun lọ; ó sì mú un, ó sì kọ ọ́ ní ilà, nítorí àwọn Júù tí ó wà ní agbègbè wọ̀nyí, nítorí gbogbo wọn mọ̀ pé, Giriki ni baba rẹ̀.
Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and he took and circumcised him because of the Jews that were in those parts: for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
4 Bí wọn sì ti ń la àwọn ìlú lọ, wọ́n ń fi àwọn àṣẹ, tí a tí pinnu láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn aposteli àti àwọn alàgbà tí ó wà ní Jerusalẹmu, lé wọn lọ́wọ́ láti máa pa wọ́n mọ́.
And as they went on their way through the cities, they delivered them the decrees to keep which had been ordained of the apostles and elders that were at Jerusalem.
5 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ìjọ sì fẹsẹ̀múlẹ̀ ní ìgbàgbọ́, wọn sí ń pọ̀ sí i ní iye lójoojúmọ́.
So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and increased in number daily.
6 Wọ́n sì la agbègbè Frigia já, àti Galatia, nítorí tí Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ kọ̀ fún wọn láti sọ ọ̀rọ̀ náà ni Asia.
And they went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been forbidden of the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia;
7 Nígbà tí wọ́n dé ọ̀kánkán Misia, wọ́n gbìyànjú láti lọ sí Bitinia, ṣùgbọ́n Ẹ̀mí Jesu kò gbà fún wọn.
and when they were come over against Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia; and the Spirit of Jesus suffered them not;
8 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì kọjá lẹ́bàá Misia, wọ́n sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí Troasi.
and passing by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
9 Ìran kan si hàn sì Paulu ni òru, ọkùnrin kan ará Makedonia dúró, ó sì ń bẹ̀ ẹ́, wí pé, “Rékọjá wá sí Makedonia, kí o sí ràn wá lọ́wọ́!”
And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: There was a man of Macedonia standing, beseeching him, and saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.
10 Nígbà tí ó sì tí rí ìran náà, lọ́gán ó múra láti lọ sí Makedonia, a ka á sí pé, Ọlọ́run tí pè wá láti wàásù ìyìnrere fún wọn.
And when he had seen the vision, straightway we sought to go forth into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel unto them.
11 Nítorí náà nígbà tí àwa ṣíkọ̀ ní Troasi a ba ọ̀nà tààrà lọ sí Samotrakea, ni ọjọ́ kejì a sì dé Neapoli;
Setting sail therefore from Troas, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and the day following to Neapolis;
12 láti ibẹ̀ àwa sì lọ si Filipi, tí í ṣe ìlú Makedonia, olú ìlú ìhà ibẹ̀, ìlú lábẹ́ Romu, àwa sì jókòó ní ìlú yìí fún ọjọ́ mélòó kan.
and from thence to Philippi, which is a city of Macedonia, the first of the district, a [Roman] colony: and we were in this city tarrying certain days.
13 Lọ́jọ́ ìsinmi, àwa sí jáde lọ sí ẹ̀yìn odi ìlú náà, lẹ́bàá odò kan, níbi tí a rò pé ibi àdúrà wà; àwa sí jókòó, a sì bá àwọn obìnrin tí o péjọ sọ̀rọ̀.
And on the sabbath day we went forth without the gate by a river side, where we supposed there was a place of prayer; and we sat down, and spake unto the women that were come together.
14 Àti obìnrin kan tí orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Lidia, elése àlùkò, ará ìlú Tiatira, ẹni tí ó sin Ọlọ́run, ó gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ wa, ọkàn ẹni tí Olúwa ṣí láti fetísí ohun tí a tí ẹnu Paulu sọ.
And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one that worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened to give heed unto the things which were spoken by Paul.
15 Nígbà tí a sí bamitiisi rẹ̀, àti àwọn ara ilé rẹ̀, ó bẹ̀ wá, wí pé, “Bí ẹ̀yin bá kà mí ni olóòtítọ́ sí Olúwa, ẹ wá si ilé mi, kí ẹ sí wọ̀ níbẹ̀!” O sí rọ̀ wá.
And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide [there]. And she constrained us.
16 Bí àwa tí n lọ sí ibi àdúrà náà, ọmọbìnrin kan tí o ní ẹ̀mí àfọ̀ṣẹ, pàdé wa, ẹni tí ó fi àfọ̀ṣẹ mú èrè púpọ̀ wá fún àwọn ọ̀gá rẹ̀.
And it came to pass, as we were going to the place of prayer, that a certain maid having a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by soothsaying.
17 Òun náà ni ó ń tọ Paulu àti àwa lẹ́hìn, ó sì ń kígbe, pé, “Àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí ni ìránṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run Ọ̀gá-ògo, tí ń kéde ọ̀nà ìgbàlà fún yin!”
The same following after Paul and us cried out, saying, These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim unto you the way of salvation.
18 Ó sì ń ṣe èyí lọ́jọ́ púpọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí inú Paulu bàjẹ́, tí ó sì yípadà, ó wí fún ẹ̀mí náà pé, “Mo pàṣẹ fún ọ ní orúkọ Jesu Kristi kí o jáde kúrò lára rẹ̀!” Ó sí jáde ni wákàtí kan náà.
And this she did for many days. But Paul, being sore troubled, turned and said to the spirit, I charge thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And it came out that very hour.
19 Nígbà tí àwọn ọ̀gá rẹ̀ sì rí i pé, ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé èrè wọn pin, wọ́n mú Paulu àti Sila, wọn sì wọ́ wọn lọ sí ọjà tọ àwọn aláṣẹ lọ.
But when her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they laid hold on Paul and Silas, and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers,
20 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì mú wọn tọ àwọn onídàájọ́ lọ, wọ́n wí pé, “Àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí tí í ṣe Júù, wọ́n ń yọ ìlú wa lẹ́nu jọjọ,
and when they had brought them unto the magistrates, they said, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,
21 wọ́n sì ń kọ́ni ní àṣà tí kò yẹ fún wa, àwa ẹni tí í ṣe ara Romu, láti gbà àti láti tẹ̀lé.”
and set forth customs which it is not lawful for us to receive, or to observe, being Romans.
22 Ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn sí jùmọ̀ dìde sì Paulu àti Sila. Àwọn olórí sí fà wọ́n ní aṣọ ya, wọ́n sí pàṣẹ pé, ki a fi ọ̀gọ̀ lù wọ́n.
And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent their garments off them, and commanded to beat them with rods.
23 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì lù wọ́n púpọ̀, wọ́n sọ wọ́n sínú túbú, wọ́n kìlọ̀ fún onítúbú kí ó pa wọ́n mọ́ dáradára.
And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:
24 Nígbà tí ó gbọ́ irú ìkìlọ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀, ó sọ̀ wọ́n sínú túbú tí inú lọ́hùn, ó sí kan àbà mọ wọ́n lẹ́sẹ̀.
who, having received such a charge, cast them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.
25 Ṣùgbọ́n láàrín ọ̀gànjọ́ Paulu àti Sila ń gbàdúrà, wọ́n sì ń kọrin ìyìn si Ọlọ́run, àwọn ara túbú sì ń tẹ́tí sí wọn.
But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns unto God, and the prisoners were listening to them;
26 Lójijì ilẹ̀ mímì ńlá sì mi, tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ìpìlẹ̀ ilé túbú mì tìtì: lọ́gán, gbogbo ìlẹ̀kùn sì ṣí, ìdè gbogbo wọn sì tú sílẹ̀.
and suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison-house were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened; and every one’s bands were loosed.
27 Nígbà tí onítúbú si tají, tí o sì ri pé, àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn túbú tí ṣí sílẹ̀, ó fa idà rẹ̀ yọ, ó sì fẹ́ pa ara rẹ̀, ó ṣe bí àwọn ara túbú ti sálọ.
And the jailor, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.
28 Ṣùgbọ́n Paulu gbé ohun rẹ̀ sókè, wí pé, “Má ṣe pa ara rẹ lára: nítorí gbogbo wa ń bẹ níhìn-ín yìí!”
But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.
29 Nígbà tí ó sì béèrè iná, ó bẹ́ wọ inú ilé, ó ń wárìrì, ó wólẹ̀ níwájú Paulu àti Sila.
And he called for lights and sprang in, and, trembling for fear, fell down before Paul and Silas,
30 Ó sì mú wọn jáde, ó ní, “Alàgbà, kín ni ki èmi ṣe ki n lè là?”
and brought them out and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31 Wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Gbá Jesu Kristi Olúwa gbọ́, a ó sì gbà ọ́ là, ìwọ àti àwọn ará ilé rẹ pẹ̀lú.”
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, thou and thy house.
32 Wọ́n sì sọ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa fún un, àti fún gbogbo àwọn ará ilé rẹ̀.
And they spake the word of the Lord unto him, with all that were in his house.
33 Ó sì mú wọn ní wákàtí náà lóru, ó wẹ ọgbẹ́ wọn; a sì bamitiisi rẹ̀, àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ lójúkan náà.
And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, immediately.
34 Ó sì mú wọn wá sí ilé rẹ̀, ó sì gbé oúnjẹ kalẹ̀ níwájú wọn, ó sì yọ̀ gidigidi pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ará ilé rẹ̀, nítorí ó gba Ọlọ́run gbọ́.
And he brought them up into his house, and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly, with all his house, having believed in God.
35 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ilẹ̀ mọ́, àwọn onídàájọ́ rán àwọn ọlọ́pàá pé, “Tú àwọn ènìyàn náà sílẹ̀.”
But when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.
36 Onítúbú sì sọ ọ̀rọ̀ náà fún Paulu, wí pé, “Àwọn onídàájọ́ ránṣẹ́ pé kí á da ìwọ àti Sila sílẹ̀. Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí ẹ jáde kí ẹ sì máa lọ ní àlàáfíà.”
And the jailor reported the words to Paul, [saying], The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore come forth, and go in peace.
37 Ṣùgbọ́n Paulu wí fún wọn pé, “Wọ́n lù wá ni gbangba, wọ́n sì sọ wá sínú túbú ni àìjẹ̀bi, àwa ẹni tí ì ṣe ara Romu. Ṣe nísinsin yìí wọ́n fẹ́ tì wá jáde níkọ̀kọ̀? Rara! Ṣùgbọ́n kí àwọn tìkára wọn wá mú wa jáde!”
But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men that are Romans, and have cast us into prison; and do they now cast us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and bring us out.
38 Àwọn ọlọ́pàá sì sọ ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí fún àwọn onídàájọ́: ẹ̀rù sì bà wọ́n, nígbà tí wọ́n gbọ́ pé ará Romu ni Paulu àti Sila.
And the serjeants reported these words unto the magistrates: and they feared when they heard that they were Romans;
39 Wọ́n sì wá, wọ́n ṣìpẹ̀ lọ́dọ̀ wọ́n, wọn sì mú wọn jáde, wọ́n sì bẹ̀ wọ́n pé, ki wọn jáde kúrò ni ìlú náà.
and they came and besought them; and when they had brought them out, they asked them to go away from the city.
40 Paulu àti Sila sì jáde nínú túbú, wọ́n sì wọ ilé Lidia lọ, nígbà tí wọn sì tí rí àwọn arákùnrin, wọ́n tù wọ́n nínú, wọn sì jáde kúrò.
And they went out of the prison, and entered into [the house of] Lydia: and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
