1Paul ac Silas fahsr sasla Amphipolis ac Apollonia ac tuku nu Thessalonica, yen ma oasr iwen lolngok se we.
1And when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.
2In oana ke el oru pacl nukewa uh, Paul el som nu in iwen lolngok. Ac ke len Sabbath tolu el sramsram nu sin mwet uh, ac rit ke kas in Ma Simusla,
2And Paul, according to his custom, went in unto them; and for three sabbath days he reasoned with them out of the scriptures:
3ac aketeya kas inge, ac akpwayei lah Christ el enenu in keok ac sifil moulyak liki misa. Paul el fahk, “Jesus se ma nga fahkak nu suwos kac inge, el pa Christ.”
3Declaring and insinuating that the Christ was to suffer, and to rise again from the dead; and that this is Jesus Christ, whom I preach to you.
4Kutu selos lulalfongi ac welulang Paul ac Silas; oayapa kutu mutan ma eteyuk fin acn we, ac pus pac mwet Greek su alu nu sin God.
4And some of them believed, and were associated to Paul and Silas; and of those that served God, and of the Gentiles a great multitude, and of noble women not a few.
5Tusruktu mwet Jew elos sok selos, ac orani kutu mwet lusrongten ma forfor wel inkanek uh, ac orala sie u in orek lokoalok. U se inge akfohsyauk mwet in siti uh nufon, ac utyak nu in lohm sel Jason, in sokol Paul ac Silas ac usaltal uh nu yurin mwet uh.
5But the Jews, moved with envy, and taking unto them some wicked men of the vulgar sort, and making a tumult, set the city in an uproar; and besetting Jason’s house, sought to bring them out unto the people.
6Tusruktu ke elos tia konaltalak, elos amakunulma Jason ac kutu pac mwet lulalfongi nu ye mutun mwet fulat in siti uh, ac wowoyak ac fahk, “Mwet inge orek fohs yen nukewa! Ac inge elos tuku pac nu in siti sesr uh,
6And not finding them, they drew Jason and certain brethren to the rulers of the city, crying: They that set the city in an uproar, are come hither also;
7ac Jason el solaltalak nu in lohm sel ah. Elos nukewa kunaus ma sap lal Tokosra Fulat, ac fahk mu oasr pac siena tokosra saya, suh inel pa Jesus.”
7Whom Jason hath received; and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.
8Ke un mwet uh, oayapa mwet fulat lun siti uh lohng kas inge, elos arulana wonak kac.
8And they stirred up the people, and the rulers of the city hearing these things,
9Mwet fulat lun siti uh sap tuh Jason ac mwet lulalfongi wial uh in moli lupan mani ma oakwuki in aksukosokyalos, na filfilla elos.
9And having taken satisfaction of Jason and of the rest, they let them go.
10Ke tufahna fongeni, mwet lulalfongi elos supwalla Paul ac Silas nu Berea. Ke eltal sun acn we eltal som nu ke iwen lolngok lun mwet Jew uh.
10But the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea. Who, when they were come thither, went into the synagogue of the Jews.
11Mwet in acn sac elos engan liki mwet Thessalonica in eis mwe lutlut. Elos arulana oaru in lohng kas ma srumunyuk uh, ac elos lutlut len nukewa ke Ma Simusla uh in liye lah pwayena ma Paul el srumun uh.
11Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, who received the word with all eagerness, daily searching the scriptures, whether these things were so.
12Mwet puspis selos lulalfongi, ac pus mutan kacto sin mwet Greek, oayapa mukul Greek puspis elos lulalfongi pac.
12And many indeed of them believed, and of honourable women that were Gentiles, and of men not a few.
13Tusruktu ke mwet Jew in acn Thessalonica lohngak lah Paul el fahkak kas lun God in acn Berea, elos tuku nu we ac mutawauk in pirik ac akfohsyauk nunak lun mwet puspis.
13And when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was also preached by Paul at Berea, they came thither also, stirring up and troubling the multitude.
14In pacl sacna, mwet lulalfongi elos supwalla Paul nu ke sie acn wekof uh; a Silas ac Timothy eltal mutana Berea.
14And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul, to go unto the sea; but Silas and Timothy remained there.
15Mwet ma usal Paul ah welul na kalla nwe Athens, na elos folokla nu Berea, us sap soko sel Paul nu sel Silas ac Timothy, eltal in tuh sa na som nu yorol.
15And they that conducted Paul, brought him as far as Athens; and receiving a commandment from him to Silas and Timothy, that they should come to him with all speed, they departed.
16Ke Paul el tuh muta soanel Silas ac Timothy in acn Athens, el arulana toasrla ke el liye lah puslana ma sruloala in acn we.
16Now whilst Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred within him, seeing the city wholly given to idolatry.
17Ouinge el som nu in iwen lolngok ac alolngoki yurin mwet Jew ac oayapa mwet saya su alu nu sin God. Ac len nukewa el sramsram yurin kutena mwet ma tuku nu in acn in tukeni in siti uh.
17He disputed, therefore, in the synagogue with the Jews, and with them that served God, and in the marketplace, every day with them that were there.
18Oasr pac kutu mwet luti ke u se pangpang mwet Epicurus ac mwet Stoic elos wi pac alein nu sel. Kutu selos siyuk mu, “Mea mwet filanginkas se inge fahk uh?” Ac kutu mwet uh topuk, “El luman kaskas ke kutu god lun mutanfahl saya.” Elos fahk ouinge mweyen Paul el luti ke Jesus oayapa ke sifil moulyak uh.
18And certain philosophers of the Epicureans and of the Stoics disputed with him; and some said: What is it, that this word sower would say? But others: He seemeth to be a setter forth of new gods; because he preached to them Jesus and the resurrection.
19Ouinge elos usalla Paul nu yurin un mwet pwapa fulat lun siti uh, su pangpang Areopagus, ac fahk, “Kut ke etu lah mea kalmen luti sasu se kom sramsramkin inge.
19And taking him, they brought him to the Areopagus, saying: May we know what this new doctrine is, which thou speakest of?
20Kutu ma kut lohng kom fahk uh luman sakirik sesr in lohng, ac kut ke etu lah mea kalmac.” (
20For thou bringest in certain new things to our ears. We would know therefore what these things mean.
21Mweyen mwet Athens nukewa, ac mwetsac su muta we, lungse sisla pacl lalos in sramsramkin ac lohng ke kutena pweng sasu.)
21(Now all the Athenians, and strangers that were there, employed themselves in nothing else, but either in telling or in hearing some new thing.)
22Paul el tuyak ye mutun mwet pwapa fulat lun siti uh ac fahk, “Nga liye lah in ouiya nukewa kowos mwet Athens uh arulana akfulatye alu.
22But Paul standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said: Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are too superstitious.
23Mweyen ke nga forfor in siti lowos uh ac liye acn kowos alu we, nga konauk sie loang su simla kac, ‘Nu sin Sie God su Tia Eteyuk.’ Ma se ma kowos alu nu kac ingan kowos finne tia akilen, pa nga ac fahkak nu suwos.
23For passing by, and seeing your idols, I found an altar also, on which was written: To the unknown God. What therefore you worship, without knowing it, that I preach to you:
24God su orala faclu ac ma nukewa loac uh, El Leum lun kusrao ac faclu, ac El tia muta in tempul ma orekla ke poun mwet.
24God, who made the world, and all things therein; he, being Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;
25Ac El tia pac enenu kutena ma su kut ac sang nu sel ke orekma lun paosr, mweyen El pa sang moul ac momong ac ma nukewa nu sin mwet nukewa.
25Neither is he served with men’s hands, as though he needed any thing; seeing it is he who giveth to all life, and breath, and all things:
26El orala mutanfahl nukewa sin mwet sefanna, ac oru tuh elos in muta apunla fin faclu nufon. El sifacna oakiya meet lusen pacl ac lupan acn elos in muta we.
26And hath made of one, all mankind, to dwell upon the whole face of the earth, determining appointed times, and the limits of their habitation.
27El oru ma inge nukewa tuh mwet uh in sokol, ac elos in mau ku in konalak ke elos kahlimunul. Tusruktu pwayeiya uh, God El tiana muta loes liki kutena sesr,
27That they should seek God, if happily they may feel after him or find him, although he be not far from every one of us:
28oana ke sie mwet tuh fahk, ‘In El kut moul, kut mukuikui, ac kut oasr.’ Oana ke kutu mwet kuhn on lowos uh fahk, ‘Kut pac, kut tulik natul.’
28For in him we live, and move, and are; as some also of your own poets said: For we are also his offspring.
29Na ke kut tulik nutin God uh, wo kut in tia nunku mu ouiya lal uh ku in lumahyuk ke gold, ku silver, ku eot, ma tafleyukla in luman ma sruloala ke lalmwetmet ac usrnguk lun mwet.
29Being therefore the offspring of God, we must not suppose the divinity to be like unto gold, or silver, or stone, the graving of art, and device of man.
30God El tuh nunak munas nu sin mwet ke nikin lalos in pacl meet, a inge El sap nu selos nukewa yen nukewa in forla liki ouiya koluk lalos.
30And God indeed having winked at the times of this ignorance, now declareth unto men, that all should every where do penance.
31Tuh El oakiya tari sie len ma El ac nununku faclu nufon ke nununku suwohs, ke sie mwet su El sulela tari. El akpwayei ma se inge nu sin mwet nukewa ke El akmoulyauk mwet se inge liki misa!”
31Because he hath appointed a day wherein he will judge the world in equity, by the man whom he hath appointed; giving faith to all, by raising him up from the dead.
32Ke elos lohng lah Paul el kaskaskin akmoulyauk sie mwet liki misa, kutu selos aksruksrukel, a kutu mwet uh fahk, “Kut ke lohng kom in sifil srumun ke ma se inge ke sie pac pacl.”
32And when they had heard of the resurrection of the dead, some indeed mocked, but others said: We will hear thee again concerning this matter.
33Na Paul el illa liki tukeni sac.
33So Paul went out from among them.
34Kutu mwet uh welulang in lulalfongi, ac sie selos inge pa Dionysius, sie sin un mwet pwapa fulat, ac oasr pac mutan se pangpang Damaris, ac kutu pac mwet saya.
34But certain men adhering to him, did believe; among whom was also Dionysius, the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.
