1Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye the account which I now give unto you.
1“Ka hlang rhoek, manuca rhoek neh a pa rhoek, tahae ah nangmih taengkah ka olthungnah he hnatun uh lah,” a ti nah.
2(And when they heard that he spoke to them in the Hebrew tongue, they kept the more silence.)
2Hebrew ol la amih a voek te a yaak uh vaengah kammueh la taoe om uh.
3And he saith: I am a Jew, born at Tarsus in Cilicia, but brought up in this city, at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the truth of the law of the fathers, zealous for the law, as also all you are this day:
3Te vaengah, “Kai he Judah hlang ni. Kilikia Tarsus ah ka thaang tih hekah kho ah n'cun. Gamaliel kho kung ah a pacut rhoek kah olkhueng a khuicaeng te ka cang. Tihnin ah boeih na om uh vanbangla Pathen ham khaw aka hmae la ka om.
4Who persecuted this way unto death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.
4Tekah a longpuei kongah ni kai loh dueknah neh hlang ka hnaemtaek. Huta tongpa khaw thongim khuila ka uup tih ka hlak.
5As the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the ancients: from whom also receiving letters to the brethren, I went to Damascus, that I might bring them bound from thence to Jerusalem to be punished.
5Khosoihham neh kangham boeih long pataeng kai taengah pai uh. Amih kah capat khaw ka doe tih Damasku kah manuca taengla ka cet. Tekah aka om rhoek te khaw pin tih Jerusalem la thak phoeiah tholhphu paek ham ka cai.
6And it came to pass, as I was going, and drawing nigh to Damascus at midday, that suddenly from heaven there shone round about me a great light:
6Ka cet tih Damasku pha tom kah khothun tluk ah vaan lamkah vangnah loh ka kaepvai ah phaeng a tue tih buengrhuet ha thoeng.
7And falling on the ground, I heard a voice saying to me: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
7Te vaengah diklai la ka bung hatah ol pakhat ka yaak tih kai te, ' Saul, Saul, balae tih kai nan hnaemtaek ?' a ti.
8And I answered: Who art thou, Lord? And he said to me: I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.
8Te vaengah kai loh, 'Nang unim Boeipa?' ka ti nah. Te daengah kai taengah, ' Kai tah nang loh na hnaemtaek Nazareth Jesuh ni ,’ a ti.
9And they that were with me, saw indeed the light, but they heard not the voice of him that spoke with me.
9Te vaengah kai taengkah aka om rhoek loh vangnah te a hmuh uh dae kai taengah a thui ol te ya uh pawh.
10And I said: What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me: Arise, and go to Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things that thou must do.
10Te dongah, “Balae ka saii eh Boeipa, “ka ti nah hatah, Boeipa loh kai taengah, “ Thoo lamtah Damasku la cet laeh. Na saii ham koi a hmoel boeih te nang taengah pahoi a thui bitni,” a ti.
11And whereas I did not see for the brightness of that light, being led by the hand by my companions, I came to Damascus.
11Tedae te thangpomnah kah vangnah lamloh kho ka hmuh voel pawt tih kai aka puei rhoek loh m'mawt daengah Damasku te ka pha.
12And one Ananias, a man according to the law, having testimony of all the Jews who dwelt there,
12Te vaengah olkhueng bangla aka cuep hlang pakhat, Judah tolvael boeih loh a oep Ananias ana om.
13Coming to me, and standing by me, said to me: Brother Saul, look up. And I the same hour looked upon him.
13Ka taengla halo vaengah ka taengah pai tih, ‘Ka manuca Saul , kho hmu laeh,’ n'ti nah. Amah te tue vaengah anih taengla ka oeloe .
14But he said: The God of our fathers hath preordained thee that thou shouldst know his will, and see the Just One, and shouldst hear the voice from his mouth.
14Te phoeiah, “A kongaih ming sak ham neh a dueng la hmuh sak ham, a ka lamkah a ol te yaak sak ham a pa rhoek kah Pathen loh nang n'coelh coeng .
15For thou shalt be his witness to all men, of those things which thou hast seen and heard.
15Te dongah na hmuh tih na yaak te hlang boeih taengah Boeipa kah laipai la na om ni.
16And now why tarriest thou? Rise up, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, invoking his name.
16Tahae ah balae na cai thil. Thoo lamtah nuem uh laeh, amah ming te phoei lamtah na tholh te sil laeh,” a ti.
17And it came to pass, when I was come again to Jerusalem, and was praying in the temple, that I was in a trance,
17Tedae Jerusalem la ka bal tih bawkim ah ka thangthui ham ka om vaengah mueimang la ha thoeng.
18And saw him saying unto me: Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem; because they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.
18Te vaengah amah te ka hmuh tih kai taengah, “ Jerusalem lamloh thamaa la nong ham mah rhingda laeh. Ka olphong kawng dongah nang n'doe uh hae mahpawh,” a ti.
19And I said: Lord, they know that I cast into prison, and beat in every synagogue, them that believed in thee.
19Kai khaw, “Boeipa, nang aka tangnah rhoek te tunim tom ah aka tam tih aka khoh la ka om te amamih loh m'hmat uh coeng.
20And when the blood of Stephen thy witness was shed, I stood by and consented, and kept the garments of them that killed him.
20Na laipai Stephen kah thii a bo vaengah khaw kamah ka om van dongah ka pai tih ka parhoih van. Te vaengah anih aka ngawn rhoek kah himbai te ka khoem pah, “ka ti nah.
21And he said to me: Go, for unto the Gentiles afar off, will I send thee.
21Te vaengah kai taengah, ' Cet laeh, nang te kamah loh namtom rhoek taengah khohla la kan tueih ni , ' a ti,” a ti nah.
22And they heard him until this word, and then lifted up their voice, saying: Away with such an one from the earth; for it is not fit that he should live.
22Tekah olka hil pataeng a yaak uh dae a ol a huel uh tih, “Hebang he diklai lamloh khoe laeh. A hing khaw a koih moenih,” a ti uh.
23And as they cried out and threw off their garments, and cast dust into the air,
23Te phoeiah amih te a pang uh doela a himbai a pit uh tih yilh dongah laipi a haeh uh.
24The tribune commanded him to be brought into the castle, and that he should be scourged and tortured: to know for what cause they did so cry out against him.
24Te vaengah Paul te rhalkap im khuila khuen ham rhalboeipa loh ol a paek . Balae a paelnaehnah tih anih a o uh te khaw ming ham Paul te nganboh neh loepdak saeh,” a ti nah.
25And when they had bound him with thongs, Paul saith to the centurion that stood by him: Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and uncondemned?
25Tedae anih te rhuihet neh a yueng thil hatah rhalboei aka pai te Paul loh, “Roman hlang he longli-lungla maila tam ham atah nangmih ham thuem a? a ti nah.
26Which the centurion hearing, went to the tribune, and told him, saying: What art thou about to do? For this man is a Roman citizen.
26A yaak vaengah rhalboeipa te rhalboei loh a paan tih a puen pah. Te vaengah, “Roman hlang la a om dongah metlamlae saii ham na cai,” a ti nah.
27And the tribune coming, said to him: Tell me, art thou a Roman? But he said: Yea.
27Te daengah Paul te rhalboeipa loh ham paan tih, “Nang he Roman tang a? Kai taengah thui lah,” a ti nah. Te dongah Paul loh, “Ue,” a ti nah.
28And the tribune answered: I obtained the being free of this city with a great sum. And Paul said: But I was born so.
28Te vaengah rhalboeipa loh, “Kai tah a cului muep daengah ni khokung khomah te khaw ka kaelh pueng he,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah Paul loh, “Kai ngawn tah he kah aka om,” a ti nah.
29Immediately therefore they departed from him that were about to torture him. The tribune also was afraid after he understood that he was a Roman citizen, and because he had bound him.
29Te dongah anih loepdak ham aka om rhoek loh a taeng lamkah vawl khoe uh. Te phoeiah pin la aka om Paul te Roman hlang ni tila a ming dongah rhalboeipa long khaw a rhih sut.
30But on the next day, meaning to know more diligently for what cause he was accused by the Jews, he loosed him, and commanded the priests to come together, and all the council: and bringing forth Paul, he set him before them.
30Tedae a vuen ah Judah rhoek loh ba a paelnaeh khaw a thuem la ming ham a ngaih dongah Paul te a hlah tih, khosoihham rhoek neh khoboei boeih tingtun ham ol a paek. Te phoeiah Paul te a khuen tih amih hmaiah a pai sak.
