Chamorro: Gospels, Acts and Psalms
1Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days, he went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea.
1AYONAE jumalom si Festo gui provinsia, ya anae malofan tres na jaane cumajulo desde Sesarea asta Jerusalem.
2And the chief priests, and principal men of the Jews, went unto him against Paul: and they besought him,
2Ya y magas mamale yan y magas y Judios manatungo güe contra si Pablo, ya matayuyut,
3Requesting favour against him, that he would command him to be brought to Jerusalem, laying wait to kill him in the way.
3Magagagao finaborese contra si Pablo, na unajanao para Jerusalem; ya mananangga gui chalan para umapuno.
4But Festus answered: That Paul was kept in Caesarea, and that he himself would very shortly depart thither.
4Lao manope si Festo, na si Pablo umanasagaja Sesarea, ya güiyaja ujanao enseguidas.
5Let them, therefore, saith he, among you that are able, go down with me, and accuse him, if there be any crime in the man.
5Ya ilegña: Ayo y mansiña guiya jamyo, ujadalalagyo papa, ya ujafaaela este na taotao, yaguin guaja taelaye guiya güiya.
6And having tarried among them no more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea, and the next day he sat in the judgment seat; and commanded Paul to be brought.
6Ya anae sumaga güije mas di dies na jaane, mapos papa Sesarea; ya y inagpaña matachong gui tribunal, ya manago na umaconie as Pablo.
7Who being brought, the Jews stood about him, who were come down from Jerusalem, objecting many and grievous causes, which they could not prove;
7Ya anae mato, y Judios ni y manmato guinin Jerusalem, manojgue gui oriyaña, ya megae finaaelañija contra si Pablo, ya ti siña manamagajet nu sija.
8Paul making answer for himself: Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar, have I offended in any thing.
8Ya manope si Pablo pot güiyaja, ilegña: Ni contra y lay y Judios, ni contra y templo, ni contra si Sesat, ti juisagüe.
9But Festus, willing to shew the Jews a pleasure, answering Paul, said: Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me?
9Lao malago si Festo na unafanmagof y Judios; jaope si Pablo ilegña: Malago jao jumanao julo Jersalem, ya unmajusga pot este sija gui menajo?
10Then Paul said: I stand at Caesar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be judged. To the Jews I have done no injury, as thou very well knowest.
10Ya ilegña si Pablo: Gaegueyo gui tribunal Sesat anae debe di jumajusga: para y Judios, taya taelaye na finatinaso; ungostungoja.
11For if I have injured them, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die. But if there be none of these things whereof they accuse me, no man may deliver me to them: I appeal to Caesar.
11Sa yaguin taelaye na finatinaso, pat guinin jufatinas jafa na jumerese y finatae, ti jureusayo na jumatae: lao yaguin taya jafa pot este y finaaelañija; taya ni un taotao uentregayo guiya sija. Jugagao jinisgajo gui as Sesat.
12Then Festus having conferred with the council, answered: Hast thou appealed to Caesar? To Caesar shalt thou go.
12Ya anae munjayan manguentos si Festo yan y taotao inetnon, jaope si Pablo ilegña: Gui as Sesat nae malagojao jinisgamo? Unfalag as Sesat.
13And after some days, king Agrippa and Bernice came down to Caesarea to salute Festus.
13Ya malofan palo jaane, mato si ray Agripa yan Bernise guiya Sesarea para umasaluda si Festo.
14And as they tarried there many days, Festus told the king of Paul, saying: A certain man was left prisoner by Felix.
14Ya anae mañaga güije megae na jaane, si Festo jadeclaraye si ray ni y causan Pablo, ilegña: Un taotao maprereso pot si Felix,
15About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests, and the ancients of the Jews, came unto me, desiring condemnation against him.
15Ni y anae estabayo Jerusalem, y magas mamale yan y manamco gui Judios mafaesenyo, sa manmalago na umacondena.
16To whom I answered: It is not the custom of the Romans to condemn any man, before that he who is accused have his accusers present, and have liberty to make his answer, to clear himself of the things laid to his charge.
16Ya juope sija, na ti costumbren y Romano na umaentrega un taotao na umapuno, antes di umanaafana yan y fumaaela, ya uguaja lisensiaña manope pot y mafaaelaña.
17When therefore they were come hither, without any delay, on the day following, sitting in the judgment seat, I commanded the man to be brought.
17Enaomina anae mandaña guine, sinjufannangga, y inagpaña matachongyo gui tribunal, ya managoyo na jumaconie.
18Against whom, when the accusers stood up, they brought no accusation of things which I thought ill of:
18Ya manestabaja y fumaaela, lao taya finaaelañija jafa ni ayo y jinasosoco:
19But had certain questions of their own superstition against him, and of one Jesus deceased, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.
19Lao guaja finaesenñija contra güiya, pot y superstisionñija, pot y religionñija yan pot y un Jesus ni y matae, ya jaasegura si Pablo na lâlâ.
20I therefore being in a doubt of this manner of question, asked him whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things.
20Ya ti juguestungo ayo sija na finaesen; jufaesen güe cao malago malag Jerusalem, ya ayo nae umajusga ni este sija.
21But Paul appealing to be reserved unto the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept, till I might send him to Caesar.
21Lao si Pablo, anae jagagao na umanasaga, para y jinisgan Augusto, managoyo na umanasaga asta qui junajanao para as Sesat.
22And Agrippa said to Festus: I would also hear the man, myself. Tomorrow, said he, thou shalt hear him.
22Ayonae si Agripa ilegña as Festo; Malagoyo locue na jujungog y taotao. Ya ilegña: Agupa na unjungog güe.
23And on the next day, when Agrippa and Bernice were come with great pomp, and had entered into the hall of audience, with the tribunes, and principal men of the city, at Festus’ commandment, Paul was brought forth.
23Ya y inagpaña mato si Agripa yan Bernise, yan y minagasñija, ya jumalom gui tribunal, yan y mas magas y inetnon yan y mas manmagas gui siuda, ya manago si Festo na umacone si Pablo.
24And Festus saith: King Agrippa, and all ye men who are here present with us, you see this man, about whom all the multitude of the Jews dealt with me at Jerusalem, requesting and crying out that he ought not to live any longer.
24Ya ilegña si Festo: Ray Agripa, yan todo y taotao ni y mangaegue güine na manjijita; inlie este na taotao ni y todo y linajyan Judios maqueja yan guajo guiya Jerusalem yan güine, elegñija na ti umanalâlâ mas.
25Yet have I found nothing that he hath committed worthy of death. But forasmuch as he himself hath appealed to Augustus, I have determined to send him.
25Lao anae jusoda na taya finatinasñajafa na umerese y finatae, ya anae güiyaja locue malago jinisgaña gui as Augusto, jujaso na junajanao.
26Of whom I have nothing certain to write to my lord. For which cause I have brought him forth before you, and especially before thee, O king Agrippa, that examination being made, I may have what to write.
26Ya taya jafa magajet na güinajaña para jutugue para y Señotjo. Enaomina jucone güe mona gui menanmiyo, yan y menamo, O Ray Agripa, para yaguin munjayan maegsamina, uguaja jafa para jutugue.
27For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not to signify the things laid to his charge.
27Sa y jinasoco na taya rason na umanajanao y presonero, ya ti umanaclaro y isao ni y mapolo contra güiya.
