Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Now there were in the church which was at Antioch, prophets and doctors, among whom was Barnabas, and Simon who was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manahen, who was the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
1Oasr 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.
2And as they were ministering to the Lord, and fasting, the Holy Ghost said to them: Separate me Saul and Barnabas, for the work whereunto I have taken them.
2Ke 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.”
3Then they, fasting and praying, and imposing their hands upon them, sent them away.
3Elos lalo ac pre, na elos filiya paolos facltal ac supwaltalla.
4So they being sent by the Holy Ghost, went to Seleucia: and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
4Ke Ngun Mutal supwalla Barnabas ac Saul, eltal som nwe Seleucia, ac kal we lac nu Cyprus.
5And when they were come to Salamina, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John also in the ministry.
5Ke eltal sun siti Salamis, eltal fahkak kas lun God in iwen lolngok lun mwet Jew we. John Mark el welultal in kasreltal.
6And when they had gone through the whole island, as far as Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesu:
6Eltal 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.
7Who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, a prudent man. He sending for Barnabas and Saul, desired to hear the word of God.
7El 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.
8But Elymas the magician (for so his name is interpreted) withstood them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.
8Tusruktu mwet susfa sac (su pangpang Elymas in kas Greek) el lainultal, ac el srike elan kifasulla governor liki moul in lulalfongi uh.
9Then Saul, otherwise Paul, filled with the Holy Ghost, looking upon him,
9Na Saul (su pangpang pac Paul) el sessesla ke Ngun Mutal, ac el ngetang suiya mwet susfa sac
10Said: O full of all guile, and of all deceit, child of the devil, enemy of all justice, thou ceasest not to pervert the right ways of the Lord.
10ac 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!
11And now behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a time. And immediately there fell a mist and darkness upon him, and going about, he sought some one to lead him by the hand.
11Poun 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.
12Then the proconsul, when he had seen what was done, believed, admiring at the doctrine of the Lord.
12Ke governor el liye ma sikyak inge, na el lulalfongila, ac el arulana lut ke mwe luti ke Leum Jesus.
13Now when Paul and they that were with him had sailed from Paphos, they came to Perge in Pamphylia. And John departing from them, returned to Jerusalem.
13Paul 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.
14But they passing through Perge, came to Antioch in Pisidia: and entering into the synagogue on the sabbath day, they sat down.
14Eltal som Perga lac nu Antioch in Pisidia, ac ke len Sabbath eltal som nu in iwen lolngok ac muta.
15And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying: Ye men, brethren, if you have any word of exhortation to make to the people, speak.
15Tukun 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.”
16Then Paul rising up, and with his hand bespeaking silence, said: Ye men of Israel, and you that fear God, give ear.
16Paul 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!
17The God of the people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they were sojourners in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought them out from thence,
17God 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,
18And for the space of forty years endured their manners in the desert.
18ac ke yac angngaul, El mutangalos in acn mwesis.
19And destroying seven nations in the land of Chanaan, divided their land among them, by lot,
19El 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.
20As it were, after four hundred and fifty years: and after these things, he gave unto them judges, until Samuel the prophet.
20“Tukun ma inge, El sang tuh mwet nununku in kololos nwe ke sun pacl lal Samuel, mwet palu.
21And after that they desired a king: and God gave them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years.
21Toko, elos siyuk ke sie tokosra, ac God El eisalang Saul, wen natul Kish in sou lal Benjamin, elan tokosra lalos ke lusen yac angngaul.
22And when he had removed him, he raised them up David to be king: to whom giving testimony, he said: I have found David, the son of Jesse, a man according to my own heart, who shall do all my wills.
22Tukun 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.’
23Of this man’s seed God according to his promise, hath raised up to Israel a Saviour, Jesus:
23Jesus, 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.
24John first preaching, before his coming, the baptism of penance to all the people of Israel.
24Meet 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.
25And when John was fulfilling his course, he said: I am not he, whom you think me to be: but behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.
25Ac 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.’
26Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you fear God, to you the word of this salvation is sent.
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!
27For they that inhabited Jerusalem, and the rulers thereof, not knowing him, nor the voices of the prophets, which are read every sabbath, judging him have fulfilled them.
27Tuh 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.
28And finding no cause of death in him, they desired of Pilate, that they might kill him.
28Ac elos finne tia konauk kutena sripa fal in anwuki el kac, a elos kwafe sel Pilate elan unilya.
29And when they had fulfilled all things that were written of him, taking him down from the tree, they laid him in a sepulchre.
29Ac tukun elos orala ma nukewa su Ma Simusla uh fahk kacl, elos eisya manol liki sakseng, ac fililya in kulyuk uh.
30But God raised him up from the dead the third day:
30Tusruktu God El akmoulyalak liki misa,
31Who was seen for many days, by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who to this present are his witnesses to the people.
31ac 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.
32And we declare unto you, that the promise which was made to our fathers,
32Ac kut tuku in use Pweng Wo ma God El tuh wulela nu sin mwet matu lasr meet ah,
33This same God hath fulfilled to our children, raising up Jesus, as in the second psalm also is written: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
33ac 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.’
34And to shew that he raised him up from the dead, not to return now any more to corruption, he said thus: I will give you the holy things of David faithful.
34Ac 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.’
35And therefore, in another place also, he saith: Thou shalt not suffer thy holy one to see corruption.
35Aok, El oayapa fahk ke sie pac verse ma fahk mu, ‘Kom fah tia lela mwet kulansap oaru lom in kulawi in kulyuk uh.’
36For David, when he had served in his generation, according to the will of God, slept: and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption.
36Tuh 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.
37But he whom God hath raised from the dead, saw no corruption.
37Tusruktu el su God El akmoulyauk liki misa, el tia wi kulawi.
38Be it known therefore to you, men, brethren, that through him forgiveness of sins is preached to you: and from all the things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
38Ke 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.
39In him every one that believeth, is justified.
39Kowos 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.
40Beware, therefore, lest that come upon you which is spoken in the prophets:
40Ke ma inge kowos liyekowosyang tuh kas inge ma fwackyak sin mwet palu fah tia tuku nu fowos:
41Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which you will not believe, if any man shall tell it you.
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!’”
42And as they went out, they desired them, that on the next sabbath, they would speak unto them these words.
42Ke 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.
43And when the synagogue was broken up, many of the Jews, and of the strangers who served God, followed Paul and Barnabas: who speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
43Tukun 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.
44But the next sabbath day, the whole city almost came together, to hear the word of God.
44Ke Sabbath se tok ah, apkuran mwet nukewa in siti uh tuku in lohng kas lun Leum.
45And the Jews seeing the multitudes, were filled with envy, and contradicted those things which were said by Paul, blaspheming.
45Ke mwet Jew elos liye pusiyen mwet uh elos sokyak na pwaye. Elos sramsram lainul Paul ac sufanul.
46Then Paul and Barnabas said boldly: To you it behoved us first to speak the word of God: but because you reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold we turn to the Gentiles.
46Ne 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.
47For so the Lord hath commanded us: I have set thee to be the light of the Gentiles; that thou mayest be for salvation unto the utmost part of the earth.
47Tuh 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.’”
48And the Gentiles hearing it, were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to life everlasting, believed.
48Ke 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.
49And the word of the Lord was published throughout the whole country.
49Kas lun Leum uh fahsrelik in acn nukewa in polo acn sac.
50But the Jews stirred up religious and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas: and cast them out of their coasts.
50Tusruktu 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.
51But they, shaking off the dust of their feet against them, came to Iconium.
51Na mwet sap uh osrokla kutkut ke nialos in akkalemye lah elos lain mwet in acn sac, na elos som nu Iconium.
52And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Ghost.
52Mwet lulalfongi in Antioch elos arulana sessesla ke engan ac ke Ngun Mutal.
