1Te phoeiah Athen lamloh nong tih tih Kawrin la pawk.
1After this, Paul left Athens and went to Corinth.

2There he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla because Claudius had ordered all the Jews to leave Rome. Paul went to visit them,
3Tedae amih neh a thuivai la a om dongah amih taengah rhaeh tih a saii. Te dongah bungkhutnah daphuikung la om uh.
3and he stayed and worked with them because they were tentmakers by trade, just as he was.
4Sabbath takuem tunim ah a thuingong tih Judah rhoek khaw, Greek rhoek khaw a hloih.
4Every Sabbath he reasoned in the synagogue, trying to persuade Jews and Greeks alike.
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.
5And when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul devoted himself fully to the word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.
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.
6But when they opposed and insulted him, he shook out his garments and told them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am innocent of it. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”
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.
7So Paul left the synagogue and went next door to the house of Titus Justus, a worshiper of God.
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.
8Crispus, the synagogue leader, and his whole household believed in the Lord. And many of the Corinthians who heard the message believed and were baptized.
9Te vaengah Paul te khoyin ah boeipa loh mangthui tih, “ Rhih boeh, thui ngawn lamtah paa boeh .
9One night the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision: “Do not be afraid; keep on speaking; do not be silent.
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.
10For I am with you and no one will lay a hand on you, because I have many people in this city.”
11Te dongah kum khat neh hla rhuk duem tih amih taengah Pathen kah olka te a thuituen.
11So Paul stayed for a year and a half, teaching the word of God among the Corinthians.
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.
12While Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews coordinated an attack on Paul and brought him before the judgment seat.
13Te vaengah “Olkhueng te a kingkalh tih Pathen bawk ham anih loh hlang a yoek,” a ti uh.
13“This man is persuading the people to worship God in ways contrary to the law,” they said.
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.
14But just as Paul was about to speak, Gallio told the Jews, “If this matter involved a wrongdoing or vicious crime, O Jews, it would be reasonable for me to hear your complaint.
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.
15But since it is a dispute about words and names and your own law, settle it yourselves. I refuse to be a judge of such things.”
16Te dongah amih te ngolkhoel taeng lamloh a haek.
16And he drove them away from the judgment seat.
17Hlang boeih loh tamtaeng Sosthene te a tuuk uh tih ngolkhoel hmaiah a boh uh. Tedae Glallio tah tekah te a ngaihuet pawh.
17At this, the crowd seized Sosthenes the synagogue leader and beat him in front of the judgment seat. But none of this was of concern to Gallio.
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.
18Paul remained in Corinth for quite some time before saying goodbye to the brothers. He had his head shaved in Cenchrea to keep a vow he had made, and then he sailed for Syria, accompanied by Priscilla and Aquila.
19Ephisa a pha vaengah amih te a caehtak. Tunim la kun tih Judah rhoek te a oelh.
19When they reached Ephesus, Paul parted ways with Priscilla and Aquila. He himself went into the synagogue there and reasoned with the Jews.
20Khohnin a sen om puei ham a hloep uh dae ngaih pawh.
20When they asked him to stay for a while longer, he declined.
21Tedae a hlah uh thae vaengah, “Pathen loh a ngaih atah nangmih taengla koep ka bal bitni,” a ti nah tih Ephisa lamkah nong.
21But as he left, he said, “I will come back to you if God is willing.” And he set sail from Ephesus.
22A suntlak vaengah Kaiserea la yoeng tih hlangboel te kut a tuuk. Te phoeiah Antiok la pawk.
22When Paul had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the church at Jerusalem. Then he went down to Antioch.
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.
23After Paul had spent some time in Antioch, he traveled from place to place throughout the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.
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.
24Meanwhile a Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, well versed in the Scriptures.
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.
25He had been instructed in the way of the Lord and was fervent in spirit. He spoke and taught accurately about Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John.
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.
26And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue. When Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him in and explained to him the way of God more accurately.
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.
27When Apollos resolved to cross over to Achaia, the brothers encouraged him and wrote to the disciples there to welcome him. On his arrival, he was a great help to those who by grace had believed.
28Judah rhoek te rhaprhap a voek tih Jesuh tah Khrih ni tila cacim lamloh langya la a tueng sak.
28For he powerfully refuted the Jews in public debate, proving from the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.
