Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1And Paul looking upon the council, said: Men, brethren, I have conversed with all good conscience before God until this present day.
1Paululu kapara pratjana ngurutalpana najina wonti ja jatana wonti: „Jura materi ja ngatata worajai, ngani ngara ngaiala ngumujeli Godani wirarina wonti nunkangupini ditjielu.“
2And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to strike him on the mouth.
2Ananias Priesta pirnali tanangu, tana nunkangu karakara terkanani, jirijiribana wonti, nina mana nandrala.
3Then Paul said to him: God shall strike thee, thou whited wall. For sittest thou to judge me according to the law, and contrary to the law commandest me to be struck?
3Paulus nunkangu jatana wonti: „Godali jidna nandrala nganai, jidna wiribani wontini! Jidni ngamai ngakangu jirijiribani jaurali kalala jinkila, ja jirijiribani jaura panini jundru jirijiribai ngana nandrananto?“
4And they that stood by said: Dost thou revile the high priest of God?
4Tana naka terkana jatana wonti: „Godaia Priesta pirnani jidni madlentji jatai?“
5And Paul said: I knew not, brethren, that he is the high priest. For it is written: Thou shalt not speak evil of the prince of thy people.
5Ja Paulus jatana wonti: „Ngatata worajai! Ngani ko nganana warai, naupini Priesta pirna nganai, ngangau dakanala parai: Jidni jinkani kana wolaraia kaparani wata madlentji jatananto.“
6And Paul knowing that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, cried out in the council: Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of Pharisees: concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.
6Paululu ngujamana wonti, palpa tanangundru Pharisaiala ngananani, ja palpa Sadducaiala, nau kana kapara pratjanani terti maritjina wonti: „Materi ja ngatata worajai! Ngani Pharisaiala nganai, Pharisaialaia ngatamura; kalkanandru ja nari jiritjinandru ngani kalalaia terkai.“
7And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the multitude was divided.
7Nau jenia matja jatana, Pharisaiala ja Sadducaiala jatamalina wonti, ja kana wolara tjelapalkaterina wonti.
8For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both.
8Ngangau Sadducaiala jatai: Nari jiritjini ja angela ja jaola pani nganai; Pharisaialali jenia mandru kaukaubai.
9And there arose a great cry. And some of the Pharisees rising up, strove, saying: We find no evil in this man. What if a spirit hath spoken to him, or an angel?
9Ja miritja pirna pantjina wonti, ja Pharisaiala jaura jinkinietja palpa terkana tarana wonti ja tjakakijiribamalina wonti ja jatana wonti: „Ngaiani wata madlentji nunkangupini kanani mankamankai; jaola kara angela kara nunkangu ngankamalina warai, ngaiani ngandandariai Godani tirimalila.“
10And when there arose a great dissension, the tribune fearing lest Paul should be pulled in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring him into the castle.
10Patijiritjini morla pirna pantjinani, juljaia kapara japali pantjina wonti, tanali Paulus diadialkaiati, ja nulu jirijiribana wonti, julja wolara ngarinanto, nina tanangundru terti patananto, ja nina juljaia piria tikalkananto.
11And the night following the Lord standing by him, said: Be constant; for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome.
11Ja tinkani Kapara nunkangu wokarana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Murlali nganau Paulujai, ngangau worderu jundru ngakangundru Jerusalemingu tinkari ngankala wiri, jeruja jundru bakana Romangu tinkari ngankananto.“
12And when day was come, some of the Jews gathered together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying, that they would neither eat, nor drink, till they killed Paul.
12Matja ditjirina, Juda kana palpa mapaterina wonti, ja morlalu kurakijiribamalina wonti, wata tajila ja wata tapala, tanali Paulus nari nandralalu.
13And they were more than forty men that had made this conspiracy.
13Tana morla nganana wonti marapratjana pota mandru ja mandruni, tanali jenia morlalu kurakijiribamalini ngankana wonti.
14Who came to the chief priests and the ancients, and said: We have bound ourselves under a great curse that we will eat nothing till we have slain Paul.
14Tanapini Priesta pirnani ja pinarani wokarana wonti, ja jatana wonti: „Ngaiani kantji morlalu kurakijiribamalina warai panila wontjala, ngaiani Paulus nari nandralalu.
15Now therefore do you with the council signify to the tribune, that he bring him forth to you, as if you meant to know something more certain touching him. And we, before he come near, are ready to kill him.
15Jura karari juljaia kaparani ja kapara worangu kaukaubanau, nulu nina tankubana jurangu ngarilkananto, jeruja jeribaka, jura poto nunkani morla talku jertapateriai najinajibala; ngaiani ngankingaterina warai nina nari ngankala, morla ngopera nau jurangu karakararinani.“
16Which when Paul’s sister’s son had heard, of their lying in wait, he came and entered into the castle and told Paul.
16Pauluni kakuja ngatatajeli tanani ngundrani ngaranani, nau wokarana wonti, ja julja wolaraia pirini wirina wonti, ja jenia Paulungu kaukaubana wonti.
17And Paul, calling to him one of the centurions, said: Bring this young man to the tribune, for he hath some thing to tell him.
17Paululu juljaia kapakapara kulno karkana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Ninapini teri juljaia kaparani wapalkau, ngangau nulia minakulno ngamalkai nunkangu jatala.“
18And he taking him, brought him to the tribune, and said: Paul, the prisoner, desired me to bring this young man unto thee, who hath some thing to say to thee.
18Nulu nina patana wonti, ja juljaia kaparani wapalkana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Paululu kanjangarilali ngana karkana warai, ja ngakangu ngatjina warai, ninapini teri jinkangu wapalkananto, ngangau nulia minakulno ngamalkai jinkangu kaukaubala.“
19And the tribune taking him by the hand, went aside with him privately, and asked him: What is it that thou hast to tell me?
19Juljaia kaparali nina mara patana wonti, ja nina tjirimalkana wonti, ja nina jakalkana wonti: „Mina jundru ngamalkai ngakangu kaukaubala?“
20And he said: The Jews have agreed to desire thee, that thou wouldst bring forth Paul tomorrow into the council, as if they meant to inquire some thing more certain touching him.
20Nau jatana wonti: „Juda kana ngankamalina warai jinkangu ngatjina, jundru tankubana Paulus kapara worangu ngarilkananto, jeruja jeribaka, tanali nunkani poto morla talku najinajibananto.
21But do not thou give credit to them; for there lie in wait for him more than forty men of them, who have bound themselves by oath neither to eat, nor to drink, till they have killed him: and they are now ready, looking for a promise from thee.
21Jundru tanangu wata morlalu ngundramai, ngangau materi morla marapratjana pota mandru ja mandruni nunkangu kalkaterila wapaia, tanali matja morlalu kurakijiribamalina warai wata tajila ja wata tapala, tanali nina nari ngankalalu: ja karari tana ngankingaterila wapaia, ja jinkani jaurani kalkaterila wapaia.“
22The tribune therefore dismissed the young man, charging him that he should tell no man, that he had made known these things unto him.
22Juljaia kaparali nina teri jinpana wonti, ja nunkangu jirijiribana wonti wata kulnuni jatala, mina jundru ngakangu kaukaubana warai.
23Then having called two centurions, he said to them: Make ready two hundred soldiers to go as far as Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen for the third hour of the night:
23Ja nulu juljaia kapakapara mandru karkana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Julja 200 ngankingalumai, tana Cäsareaja palkananto, bakana dukaterinietja marapratjana pota mara wora ja mandru, ja kaltieli dakanietja 200 tinkani.
24And provide beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring him safe to Felix the governor.
24Ja tanali bakana dukaterini nganti ngankingananto Paulus kurana tarala, ja tepi Felixingu mitaia kapakaparani wapalkala.“
25(For he feared lest perhaps the Jews might take him away by force and kill him, and he should afterwards be slandered, as if he was to take money.) And he wrote a letter after this manner:
25Ja nulu jaura dakana wonti, nulupini jaurali:
26Claudius Lysias to the most excellent governor, Felix, greeting.
26„Klaudiulu Lysiali mitaia kapakaparani Felix ngumu pirnani mandurini jaura jinpai.
27This man being taken by the Jews, and ready to be killed by them, I rescued coming in with an army, understanding that he is a Roman:
27Ninapini kana Juda kanali patala wiri, ja ninaia ngampu nari ngankala wiri, ninaia ngato dunkalkala wiri, ngani matja wirina julja wolarani jela, ngangau ngani ngarala wiri, nau Romala nganai.
28And meaning to know the cause which they objected unto him, I brought him forth into their council.
28Ja ngangau ngato ngantjala wiri ngujamala, minandru tanali nunkangu ngulkuterkala wiri, ngato ninaia kapara pratjanani ngarilkala wiri.
29Whom I found to be accused concerning questions of their law; but having nothing laid to his charge worthy of death or of bands.
29Ngato mankamankala wiri, tanali nunkangu tanani jirijiribani jauraia tirijakalkijiribamalinandru ngulkuterkala wiri, ja nunkangu ngulku pani parala wiri, nulia nari kara kanjangari kara kalala maninanto.
30And when I was told of ambushes that they had prepared for him, I sent him to thee, signifying also to his accusers to plead before thee. Farewell.
30Ngangau kulnujeli ngakangu kaukaubala wiri, Juda kana palpa nunkangu materani kalkaterinani, ngato ninaia nurujeli jinkangu jinpana warai, ja bakana ngulkuterkanietjani kaukaubana warai, tana jinkangu jatananto, mina tanali nunkangu ngamalkai. Ngumu tepiriau!“
31Then the soldiers, according as it was commanded them, taking Paul, brought him by night to Antipatris.
31Julja wolarali Paulus patana wonti, worderu nulu tanangu jirijiribana wonti; ja tanali nina tinkani Antipatringu wapalkana wonti.
32And the next day, leaving the horsemen to go with him, they returned to the castle.
32Ditji kulnuni tanali dukaterinietja worarana wonti nunkangunto palkananto, ja tana julja wolaraia pirini tikana karitjina wonti.
33Who, when they were come to Caesarea, and had delivered the letter to the governor, did also present Paul before him.
33Tanapini Cäsareangu matja wokarana, ja dakani jaura mitaia kapakaparani matja jinkina, tanali Paulus nunkangu terkibana wonti.
34And when he had read it, and had asked of what province he was, and understood that he was of Cilicia;
34Mitaia kapakapara dakani jaura matja warapana, nulu jakalkana wonti, mina mita burundru nau nganai, ja nulu matja ngarana, nau Ciliciandru nganai,
35I will hear thee, said he, when thy accusers come. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod’s judgment hall.
35Nau jatana wonti: „Ngato jidnana talku jakajakalkala nganai, ngulkuterkanietja jinkani bakana ninkida ngananani.“ Ja nulu jirijiribana wonti, nina Herodini pungani ngamalkala.
