Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1After we had torn ourselves away from them, we sailed directly to Cos, and the next day on to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.
1Jendranguta ngaiana pararanani, ja ngaiana tanangundru matja delkiterina, ngaiana nururingana Kosuni wokarana wonti, ja ditji kulnuni Rhoduni, ja nakandru Patarani.
2Finding a ship crossing over to Phoenicia, we boarded it and set sail.
2Ja ngaiana bota kulno matja mankamankana, nau Phönicieni pararanani, ngaiana nunkangu wirina wonti ja tirimalkana wonti.
3After sighting Cyprus and passing south of it, we sailed on to Syria and landed at Tyre, where the ship was to unload its cargo.
3Ngaiana Cypern matja najina, ngaiana nina worangantjujeli worarana wonti ja Syriankaria pararana wonti ja Tyrungu banbana wonti; ngangau naka botali poto nunkani worajiribananto.
4We sought out the disciples in Tyre and stayed with them seven days. Through the Spirit they kept telling Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
4Ja ngaiana mili matja mankamankana, ngaiana ditji mara wora ja mandru naka ngamana wonti; ja tanalipini Paulungu Jaolali kulikirieli jatana wonti, nau wata Jerusalemia tarananto.
5But when our time there had ended, we set out on our journey. All the disciples, with their wives and children, accompanied us out of the city and knelt down on the beach to pray with us.
5Ngaiana tananapini ditji naka matja ngamana, ngaiana dunkana wonti ja palkana wonti, ja tana pratjana widlani ja kupani jela ngaianangunto ngura tidnantaia wapana wonti, ja ngaiana dirkalani pantjaterkana ngarina wonti ja ngatjina wonti.
6And after we had said our farewells, we went aboard the ship, and they returned home.
6Ja ngaiana matja danidanilkijiribamalina, ngaiana botani wirina wonti, ja tana pungaia tikana kurana wonti.
7When we had finished our voyage from Tyre, we landed at Ptolemais, where we greeted the brothers and stayed with them for a day.
7Ngaiana palkana matja mudana, ngaiana Tyrundru Ptolomaiungu wokarana wonti, ja ngatatani mandurini jaura jinkina wonti, ja ditji kulno tanangu jela ngamana wonti.
8Leaving the next day, we went on to Caesarea and stayed at the home of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the Seven.
8Ditji kulnuni ngaiana dunkana kurana wonti, ja Casareangu wokarana wonti; ja ngaiana Philippuni ngantjani jaura kaukaubanietjaia pungani wokarana wonti, nau mara wora ja mandrundru kulno nganana wonti, ja nunkangunto ngamana wonti.
9He had four unmarried daughters who prophesied.
9Nulupini ngatamura mankara mandru ja mandru ngamalkana wonti, tana mankara mantaka nganana wonti, tana talpadakana wonti.
10After we had been there several days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.
10Ngaiana ditji palpa naka matja ngamana, Propheta kulno Judaiandru ngarina wonti, tala nunkani Agabus.
11Coming over to us, he took Paul’s belt, bound his own feet and hands, and said, “The Holy Spirit says: ‘In this way the Jews of Jerusalem will bind the owner of this belt and hand him over to the Gentiles.’”
11Nau ngaianangu wokarana wonti, ja Pauluni dala mantamanta patana wonti, ja munta mara ja tidna workamantraterina wonti, ja jatana wonti: „Jeruja Jaola kulikiri jatai: Ninaia materi, nunkangu naupini dala mantamanta nganai, ninaia Juda kana jeruja workamandrala nganai Jerusalemingu, ja ninaia kana koja marani ngulkujeli jinkila nganai.“
12When we heard this, we and the people there pleaded with Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
12Ngaiana jenia matja ngarana, ngaiani ja bakana tanapini ngurala nunkangu ngatjina wonti, nau wata Jerusalemia tarananto.
13Then Paul answered, “Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.”
13Paululu kalabana wonti: „Mina jura ngankai, ngangau jura jindrai ja ngana ngara wokaribai? Ngani matja ngankingaterina jinkiterila, wata windri workamantranani, a‐ai, bakana palinani Jerusalemingu Kaparaia Jesuni talandru.“
14When he would not be dissuaded, we fell silent and said, “The Lord’s will be done.”
14Ngangau nau milingeru tintjaterinani, ngaiani ngapurina wonti ja jatana wonti: „Kaparaia jertapaterina pantjiatimai!“
15After these days, we packed up and went on to Jerusalem.
15Tanangupini ditjini ngadani ngaiana judujudu pratjana ngankingana wonti ja Jerusalemia tarana wonti.
16Some of the disciples from Caesarea accompanied us, and they took us to stay at the home of Mnason the Cypriot, an early disciple.
16Ngaianangu jela bakana mili palpa Cäsareandru wapana wonti, ja tanali ngaianana materi kulnuni, tala nunkani Mnason Cyperndru, wapalkana wonti, nau mili pinaru nganana wonti, nunkangu ngaiana tidnapalara ngamananto.
17When we arrived in Jerusalem, the brothers welcomed us joyfully.
17Ngaiana Jerusalemingu matja wokarana, ngatatajeli ngaianana mankinali patana wonti.
18The next day Paul went in with us to see James, and all the elders were present.
18Ditji kulnuni Paulus ngaianangu jela Jakobungu wirina wonti, ja pinaru wora nakanika mapaterina wonti.
19Paul greeted them and recounted one by one the things that God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.
19Ja nulu tanangu mandurini jaura matja jinkina, nau tidna warapaterina wonti mina Godali kana koni ngankana warai nunkani ngamalkijiribanilali.
20When they heard this, they glorified God. Then they said to Paul, “You see, brother, how many thousands of Jews have believed, and all of them are zealous for the law.
20Tanali jenia matja ngarana, tanali Kapara jurakokana wonti, ja tanali nunkangu jatana wonti: „Jundru najiai, ngatatajai! worderuntja 1000 Juda kanali morlalu ngundrala wapaia; ja tana pratjana manabakapirna nganai jirijiribani jauraia.
21But they are under the impression that you teach all the Jews who live among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or observe our customs.
21Tanali kaukaubani jaura jinkangundru ngarana warai, jundru Juda kana pratjanani, tana kana koni terti ngamai, ngujangujara jinkiai, tanali Mose worarananto, ja jatai: Tanali tanani kupa wata karuwali ngankananto, bakana wata mangini warula jeribaka wirarinanto.
22What then should we do? They will certainly hear that you have come.
22Mina karari? Kana wolara kantji jurborinanto, ngangau tanali ngarala nganai jidni matja wokarana.
23Therefore do what we advise you. There are four men with us who have taken a vow.
23Jenia ngankamai, mina ngaiani jinkangu jatai. Ngaianingu terti materi mandru ja mandru nganai, tanali talpadakani tanangu ngamalkai;
24Take these men, purify yourself along with them, and pay their expenses so they can have their heads shaved. Then everyone will know that there is no truth to these rumors about you, but that you also live in obedience to the law.
24Tananapini jinkangu maniau, jinkangu jela kulirkananto, ja kalala tanangundru jinkiau, tanali para wokaribananto; ja pratjanali najila nganai, jenia baku nganai, mina tanali jinkangundru kaukaubana warai, a‐ai, jidni bakana jirijiribani jauraia ngamalkijiribanietja ngamai.
25As for the Gentile believers, we have written to them our decision that they must abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality.”
25Tana kana koni morlalu ngundrala wapaia, ngaiani jirijiribani jaura jinpana wonti, ja morlalu kurana wonti, tana ngamalkaterinanto muramura poto ngumu jinkinandru ja kumarandru ja ngurlini ngantindru ja palakantjindru.“
26So the next day Paul took the men and purified himself along with them. Then he entered the temple to give notice of the date when their purification would be complete and the offering would be made for each of them.
26Ngadani Paululu tanana materi nunkangu manina wonti, ja ditji kulnuni tanali nina tanangu jela matja kulirkana, nau Godaia pungani wirina wonti ja wondrana wonti, tanali kulikiri ngankani ditji morlalu ngamalkana warai, tanali tanangu pratjanandru poto ngumu jinkinantulu.
27When the seven days were almost over, some Jews from the province of Asia saw Paul at the temple. They stirred up the whole crowd and seized him,
27Tanali ditji mara wora ja mandru ngampu mudanani, Juda kanali Asiandru nina Godaia pungani najinani, tanali kana wolara patijiritjibana wonti, ja nunkangu mara kurana wonti,
28crying out, “Men of Israel, help us! This is the man who teaches everywhere against our people and against our law and against this place. Furthermore, he has brought Greeks into the temple and defiled this holy place.”
28Ja maritjina wonti: „Jura Israel materi worajai, marangokanau! Naupini nau kana nganai, nulia kana wolarani ja jirijiribani jaurani ja nunkangupini pirini paruparu pratjanani delkini ngujangujara jinkiai; ja nulia bakana Grieka kana Godaia pungani wirilkana warai, ja ninapini piri kulikiri murumuru ngankana warai.“
29For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, and they assumed that Paul had brought him into the temple.
29Ngangau tanali ngopera Trophimus Ephesala nunkangu jela ngurani najila wiri ja ngundrala wiri, Paululu nina Godaia pungani wirilkana warai.
30The whole city was stirred up, and the people rushed together. They seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple, and at once the gates were shut.
30Ja ngurala warupoto patijiritjina wonti, ja kana wolara jurborina wonti; ja tanali Paulus patana wonti, ja nina Godaia pungandru parumana tarana wonti, ja nurujeli tanali mana nguru ngankana wonti.
31While they were trying to kill him, the commander of the Roman regiment received a report that all Jerusalem was in turmoil.
31Tanali wontina wonti nina nari ngankala; naupini kaukaubani jaura juljaia kaparani tarana wonti, Jerusalemala warupoto patijiritjina warai.
32Immediately he took some soldiers and centurions and ran down to the crowd. When the people saw the commander and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.
32Nulu nurujeli julja worana ja kapakapara manina wonti, ja tanangu mindrina ngarina wonti. Tanali julja kapara ja julja wolara matja najina, tanali mudana wonti Paulus nandrala.
33The commander came up and arrested Paul, ordering that he be bound with two chains. Then he asked who he was and what he had done.
33Ngadani juljaia kapara karakararina wonti ja jirijiribana wonti nina patananto, ja jirijiribana wonti nina kanjangari mandrujeli workamandrala; ja nulu jakalkana wonti worana nauja nganai, ja mina nulia ngankana warai.
34Some in the crowd were shouting one thing, and some another. And since the commander could not get at the truth because of the uproar, he ordered that Paul be brought into the barracks.
34Kana wolarandru palpa jeruja maritjina wonti ja palpa jeruja. Ngangau nau ngandandarina wonti jaura morlalu ngujamala maritjinandru, nulu jirijiribana wonti, nina julja wolaraia pirini taralkala.
35When Paul reached the steps, he had to be carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the mob.
35Nau tidnaia katinani matja wokarana, juljali nina mandrananto kana wolaraia ngurulandru.
36For the crowd that followed him kept shouting, “Away with him!”
36Ngangau kana wolara karipaterina wonti ja maritjina wonti: „Ninaia teribau!“
37As they were about to take Paul into the barracks, he asked the commander, “May I say something to you?” “Do you speak Greek?” he replied.
37Ja tanali Paulus juljaia pirini wirilkanani, nau juljaia kaparani jatana wonti: „Jundru ngakangu manuni kurai jinkangu palpa jatala?“ Nau jatana wonti: „Jundru Grieka jaura ngujamai?
38“Aren’t you the Egyptian who incited a rebellion some time ago and led four thousand members of the ‘Assassins’ into the wilderness?”
38Jidni wata naupini Egyptala ngani, nulu kalkani patijiritjibani ngankana paraia, ja tanana kana 4000 nari nandranietja pitarani dunkalkana paraia?“
39But Paul answered, “I am a Jew from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no ordinary city. Now I beg you to allow me to speak to the people.”
39Paulus jatana wonti: „Ngani Juda kana nganai, Tarsusala, Ciliciani ngura wata wakawakaia kana, ngato jinkangu ngatjiai, ngakangu manuni kurau kana wolarani kaukaubala.“
40Having received permission, Paul stood on the steps and motioned to the crowd. A great hush came over the crowd, and he addressed them in Hebrew:
40Nulu nunkangu matja manuni kurana warai, Paulus tidnaia katinani terkakana wonti, ja kana wolarani malka jinkina wonti; ja matja dalpura pantjinani, nulu tanangu Juda kana talini kaukaubana wonti ja jatana wonti:
