1After these things, departing from Athens, he came to Corinth.
1Te phoeiah Athen lamloh nong tih tih Kawrin la pawk.
2And finding a certain Jew, named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with Priscilla his wife, (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome,) he came to them.
2Te vaengah Pontus namtu, Judah hlang, a ming ah Aquila te a hmuh. Rom lamkah Judah rhoek te boeih nong sak ham Klaudius loh a uen dongah a yuu Priscilla neh Italy lamkah ha pai paek rhoi tih amih rhoi te a paan.
3And because he was of the same trade, he remained with them, and wrought; (now they were tentmakers by trade.)

4And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, bringing in the name of the Lord Jesus; and he persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.

5And when Silas and Timothy were come from Macedonia, Paul was earnest in preaching, testifying to the Jews, that Jesus is the Christ.
5Silas khaw, Timothy khaw Makedonia lamkah ha suntlak vaengah Jesuh tah Khrih ni tila Judah rhoek taengah laipai puei ham Paul loh ol a boep sak.
6But they gainsaying and blaspheming, he shook his garments, and said to them: Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.
6Tedae amih te a pakai tih a soehsal uh phoeiah himbai a khong uh. Amih te, “Na thii loh nangmih lu dongah tla saeh. Kai tah ka caih, tahae lamkah tah namtom taengah ka cet pawn ni,” a ti nah.
7And departing thence, he entered into the house of a certain man, named Titus Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house was adjoining to the synagogue.
7Te dongah te lamloh thoeih tih Pathen aka bawk hlang pakhat, a ming ah Titu Justus im ah kun. Anih im tah tunim neh rhi uh tih om.
8And Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing, believed, and were baptized.
8Te vaengah tamtaeng Krispu neh a imkhui pum loh Boeipa a tangnah. Kawrin kah rhoek long khaw a yaak uh vaengah muep a tangnah uh tih a nuem uh.
9And the Lord said to Paul in the nights, by a vision: Do not fear, but speak; and hold not thy peace,
9Te vaengah Paul te khoyin ah boeipa loh mangthui tih, “ Rhih boeh, thui ngawn lamtah paa boeh .
10Because I am with thee: and no man shall set upon thee, to hurt thee; for I have much people in this city.
10Nang taengah ka om dongah nang aka nan tih nang aka hnaep ham khaw om mahpawh. He kho khuiah ka pilnam loh muep om pueng,” a ti nah.
11And he stayed there a year and six months, teaching among them the word of God.
11Te dongah kum khat neh hla rhuk duem tih amih taengah Pathen kah olka te a thuituen.
12But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,
12Tedae Akhaia kah khoboei la Gallio a om vaengah Paul te Judah rhoek loh tun a pai thil uh tih laitloek ngolkhoel hmaila a khuen uh.
13Saying: This man persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.
13Te vaengah “Olkhueng te a kingkalh tih Pathen bawk ham anih loh hlang a yoek,” a ti uh.
14And when Paul was beginning to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews: If it were some matter of injustice, or an heinous deed, O Jews, I should with reason bear with you.
14Paul khaw a ka ong ham a cai vaengah Judah rhoek te Gallio loh, “Boethae khat khat neh dumlai a thae la a om atah, Judah rhoek aw, ol vanbangla nangmih loh yaknaem uh saw.
15But if they be questions of word and names, and of your law, look you to it: I will not be judge of such things.
15Tedae na ol khaw, na ming khaw, olkhueng khaw dawtnah a om atah na sawt uh mako. Te soah laitloekkung la om ham ka ngaih pawh,” a ti nah.
16And he drove them from the judgment seat.
16Te dongah amih te ngolkhoel taeng lamloh a haek.
17And all laying hold on Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, beat him before the judgment seat; and Gallio cared for none of those things.
17Hlang boeih loh tamtaeng Sosthene te a tuuk uh tih ngolkhoel hmaiah a boh uh. Tedae Glallio tah tekah te a ngaihuet pawh.
18But Paul, when he had stayed yet many days, taking his leave of the brethren, sailed thence into Syria (and with him Priscilla and Aquila), having shorn his head in Cenchrae: for he had a vow.
18Paul khaw manuca rhoek taengah khohnin a sen om pueng tih a hlah uh phoeiah Syria la kat. Te vaengah anih te Priscilla neh Aquila loh a puei rhoi. Kenkhrea ah a lu a vok tih paipi a saii.
19And he came to Ephesus, and left them there. But he himself entering into the synagogue, disputed with the Jews.
19Ephisa a pha vaengah amih te a caehtak. Tunim la kun tih Judah rhoek te a oelh.
20And when they desired him, that he would tarry a longer time, he consented not;
20Khohnin a sen om puei ham a hloep uh dae ngaih pawh.
21But taking his leave, and saying: I will return to you again, God willing, he departed from Ephesus.
21Tedae a hlah uh thae vaengah, “Pathen loh a ngaih atah nangmih taengla koep ka bal bitni,” a ti nah tih Ephisa lamkah nong.
22And going down to Caesarea, he went up to Jerusalem, and saluted the church, and so came down to Antioch.
22A suntlak vaengah Kaiserea la yoeng tih hlangboel te kut a tuuk. Te phoeiah Antiok la pawk.
23And after he had spent some time there, he departed, and went through the country of Galatia and Phrygia, in order, confirming all the disciples.
23Te vaengah a tue bet a loh tih aka yuel te Galatia kho neh Phrygia te patoeng a hil tih hnukbang rhoek te boeih a thoh.
24Now a certain Jew, named Apollo, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus, one mighty in the scriptures.
24Te vaengah Judah hlang pakhat, a ming ah Apollos, Alexandria namtu te om. Anih tah hlang calthai la om tih Ephisa a pha vaengah cacim dongah aka thai la om.
25This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, spoke, and taught diligently the things that are of Jesus, knowing only the baptism of John.
25Boeipa kah longpuei te a thuituen tangtae coeng dongah, mueihla thahlue neh a thui tih Jesuh kawng te khaeh khaeh a thuituen. Tedae Johan kah baptisma ni dawk a ming.
26This man therefore began to speak boldly in the synagogue. Whom when Priscilla and Aquila had heard, they took him to them, and expounded to him the way of the Lord more diligently.
26Anih long khaw a tong tih tunim ah sayalh la a thui. A yaak uh vaengah anih te Priscilla neh Aquila loh a khuen tih Pathen kah a longpuei te tuektuek a saep sak.
27And whereas he was desirous to go to Achaia, the brethren exhorting, wrote to the disciples to receive him. Who, when he was come, helped them much who had believed.
27Te vaengah Akhaia la cet tih manuca rhoek tanolh ham te a hue dongah anih aka doe ham hnukbang rhoek taengah caa a daek pah. A pha vaengah aka tangnah roek te lungvatnah neh muep a talong.
28For with much vigour he convinced the Jews openly, shewing by the scriptures, that Jesus is the Christ.
28Judah rhoek te rhaprhap a voek tih Jesuh tah Khrih ni tila cacim lamloh langya la a tueng sak.
