King James Version with Apocrypha
1Apollos te Kawrin ah a om vaengah cingtoe kholi te Paul loh a hil tih Ephisa la a suntlak vaengah hnukbang rhoek hlangvang te a hmuh.
1And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,
2Te dongah amih te, “Aka tangnah rhoek loh Mueihla Cim na dang uh a?” a ti nah. Tedae amih long te, “Mueihla Cim a om te ka yaak uh moenih,” a ti nah.
2He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.
3Te dongah, “Ba nen lae na nuem uh tah,” a ti nah vaengah, “Johan kah baptisma dongah,” a ti uh.
3And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John’s baptism.
4Te dongah Paul loh, “Johan loh yutnah baptisma dongah a nuem tih anih hnukkah aka lo te tangnah, 'ham pilnam taengah a thui te khaw Jesuh ah ni a om,” a ti nah.
4Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
5A yaak uh vaengah Boeipa Jesuh ming neh a nuem uh.
5When they heard this , they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
6Te dongah Paul loh amih te kut a tloeng thil tih Mueihla Cim loh a suntlak thil. Te vaengah ol khaw a thui uh tih a phong uh.
6And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
7Te vaengah a pum boeih la hlang hlainit tluk om uh.
7And all the men were about twelve.
8Tunim ah kun tih sayalh la a thui. Pathen ram kawng te hla thum hlai a thuingong tih a hloih.
8And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.
9Tedae hlangvang loh ning uh tih a aek uh dongah longpuei te rhaengpuei hmaiah a thet uh. Te dongah Amih taeng lamloh nong tih hnukbang rhoek a khuen phoeiah, Turannu saengim ah hnin takuem a thuingong.
9But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
10Tedae kum nit hlai a om tangloeng tih Asia kah khosa Judah rhoek neh Greek rhoek boeih loh Boeipa kah olka he a yaak.
10And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
11A dang noek pawh thaomnah pataeng khaw Pathen loh Paul kut dongah a tueng sak.
11And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:
12Te dongah a pum dongkah himbaica khaw, hamnak khaw a khuen tih aka tlo te a tloeng thil. Te vaengah amih lamkah tlohtat te a voeih pah tih mueihla thae khaw a coe sak.
12So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.
13Te vaengah rhaihaek Judah la aka dongpoeng hlangvang long khaw rhai thae aka kaem rhoek te Boeipa Jesuh ming phoei thil ham cai uh tih, “Jesuh rhangneh nangmih taengah ol ka hlo te te Paul loh a hoe,” a ti uh.
13¶ Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.
14Te vaengah Judah khosoihham pakhat kah Skeva ca rhoek parhih aka om long khaw te tlam te a saii.
14And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.
15Tedae amih te mueihla thae loh a doo tih, “Jesuh khaw ka ming tih Paul ka hmat. Tedae nangmih tah u rhoek nim?,” a ti nah.
15And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
16Te phoeiah a khuiah mueihla thae aka om hlang loh amih te boeih a cungpet thil tih a vueinan thai. Te dongah tekah im te a poeng a hal hlanah a tling a yal neh hmalaem uh coeng.
16And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
17Te te Ephisa kah kho aka sa Judah rhoek neh Greek rhoek taengah khaw boeih mingpha la om coeng. Te dongah rhihnah loh amih te boeih a tlak thil tih Boeipa Jesuh ming te a oep uh.
17And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
18Aka tangnah rhoek loh a khoboe phong ham neh phoe hamla muep ha pawk uh.
18And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.
19Miklet neh a soep la kho aka boe rhoek kah cabu aka rhoei rhoek te khaw hlang boeih hmaiah a hoeh uh. Te dongah a phu te n'dueh koinih tangka thawng sawmnga khaw a hmuh ni.
19Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men : and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
20Te dongah BOEIPA kah olka loh thaomnah neh rhoeng tih khangmai.
20So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.
21Tedae te te a coeng vaengah Makedonia neh Akhaia te paan tih Jerusalem la caeh ham Paul loh Mueihla ah ko a tam. Te dongah, “Ka pha to phoeiah Rom hip ham ka ngaih,” a ti.
21¶ After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.
22Amah aka bongyong rhoi ham Timothy neh Erastu te Makedonia la a tueih. Amah tah Asia ah a tue a laehdawn pueng.
22So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.
23Te vaeng tue kah a long a im dongah puenpa aka om te a yool mai moenih.
23And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.
24Te vaengah cakben pakhat, a ming ah Demetrius loh, Artemis kah cakben bawkim a saii tih kutthai neh a coeng sak bibi khaw a yool mai moenih.
24For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen;
25Te kawng dongah khaw bibikung rhoek te a tingtun sak tih, “'Hlang rhoek aw, tahae kah bibi he mamih ham khuehtawn la om, 'tite na hmat uh.
25Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth.
26Ephisa bueng ah pawt tih Asia pum banghui ah Paul loh a yoek tih hlangping muep a maelh te khaw na hmuh uh tih na yaak uh coeng. Kut neh a saii boeih he pathen moenih,” a ti.
26Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands:
27Te bueng pawt tih mingthae la pawk koinih mamih ham a cungvang khaw khopo coeng . Artemis rhainu puei kah bawkim khaw nawtnaa mueh la a lennah khaw yawk pawn ni. Anih te Asia pum neh lunglai loh a bawk,” a ti nah.
27So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.
28A yaak uh vaengah thinsanah neh a hah la aka om rhoek tah tamhoe uh tih, “Ephesa kah Artemis tah len pai,” a ti uh.
28And when they heard these sayings , they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
29Te vaengah khopuei tah puencaknah baetawt. Te dongah lamcawntol la huk cu uh tih Kaiyu neh Paul kah a hui Makedonia hoel Aristarkhu te a paco uh.
29And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the theatre.
30Paul te rhaengpuei taengah kun ham khaw a ngaih dae anih te hnukbang rhoek loh hlah uh pawh.
30And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.
31A paya la aka om Asia boei hlangvang loh amah te a tah tih lamcawntol ah pum paek pawt ham a hloep uh.
31And certain of the chief of Asia, which were his friends, sent unto him, desiring him that he would not adventure himself into the theatre.
32Te vaengah pakhat pakhat ah pang paluep uh. Hlangboel loh huk huk om uh ngawn dae a yet ngai loh ba dongah a khoong uh khaw ming uh pawh.
32Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together.
33Judah rhoek loh hlangping khuikah Alexander te a uen uh tih a mop uh. Alexander long khaw kut a cavoih tih rhaengpuei taengah amah te huul uh ham a ngaih.
33And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defence unto the people.
34Tedae anih te Judah hoel ni tila a hmat uh. Te dongah khonoek panit tluk tah ol pakhat la boeih a khueh uh tih, “Ephesa kah Artemis ni aka khuet koek,” tila pang uh.
34But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
35Tedae hlangping te cadaek pakhat loh a sim tih, “Ephesa hlang rhoek aw, Ephesa he Jupiter lamkah aka rhul Artemis boeinu kah imkhoem khopuei la a om te ulae aka ming pawt hlang aka om.
35And when the townclerk had appeased the people, he said, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?
36Te dongah hekah he oelh tloel la om coeng . Nangmih duem om ham neh marhumarhat la saii pawt ham ni a kuek.
36Seeing then that these things cannot be spoken against, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.
37Nang khuen uh hlang rhoek he bawkim aka reth aih moenih, mamih kah pathen aka soehsal bal moenih.
37For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.
38Te dongah Demetrius neh anih taengkah kutthai rhoek loh pakhat pakhat te olka a khueh thil oeh atah khoboei aka om rhoek taengah dumlo lailo te khuen uh saeh lamtah khat neh khat tingtoeh uh saeh.
38Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them implead one another.
39Tedae khat khat ni na kuek uh thil atah hlangboel kah a rhimong neh thuicaih pah saeh.
39But if ye enquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.
40Tihnin kah olpungnah kongah a lolh a om moenih. Te dongah tingtoeh uh ham tah khopo coeng. Tekah kawng neh lairhui dongkah olka he thuung thai sih ti moenih,” a ti nah.
40For we are in danger to be called in question for this day’s uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account of this concourse.
41Te tlam te a thui pah daengah ni hlangboel te khaw a paa pueng.
41And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
