1El fahk, “Mwet kacto ac mwet matwuk, porongo ke nga ac sifacna aksuwosyeyu nu suwos uh!”
1“Brothers and fathers, listen now to my defense before you.”
2Ke elos lohng ke el kaskas nu selos ke kas na lalos, na elos misla yohk liki meet ah. Na Paul el sifilpa fahk:
2When they heard him speak to them in Hebrew, they became even more silent. Then Paul declared,
3“Nga sie mwet Jew, su isusla Tarsus in Cilicia, tusruk nga matula in acn Jerusalem. Nga tuh sie mwet lutlut lal Gamaliel ac nga eis kas in luti na yohk ke Ma Sap lun mwet matu lasr meet ah. Nga srike in arulana moniyuk nu sin God, oana kowos nukewa su oasr inse inge misenge uh.
3“I am a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but raised in this city. I was educated at the feet of Gamaliel in strict conformity to the law of our fathers. I am just as zealous for God as any of you here today.
4Nga kalyei mwet ma fahsr ke Inkanek sasu se inge, ac pus selos misa. Nga kapriya mukul ac mutan ac siselosyang nu in presin.
4I persecuted this Way even to the death, detaining both men and women and throwing them into prison,
5Mwet Tol Fulat oayapa Un Mwet Pwapa Fulat nukewa elos ku in akpwayei lah pwaye ma nga fahk uh. Nga eis selos leta ma simla nu sin mwet Jew wiasr su muta in Damascus, oru nga tuh som nu we in sruokya ac kapriya mwet inge, ac usalosme nu Jerusalem in tuh kalyeiyuk elos.
5as the high priest and the whole Council can testify about me. I even obtained letters from them to their brothers in Damascus, and I was on my way to apprehend these people and bring them to Jerusalem to be punished.
6“Ke nga fahsr ac apkuran nu Damascus, akuran nu ke infulwen len, sie kalem sarmelik inkusrao me ac apinyula.
6About noon as I was approaching Damascus, suddenly a bright light from heaven flashed around me.
7Nga putatla nu infohk uh ac lohng sie pusra fahk nu sik, ‘Saul, Saul! Efu kom ku kalyeiyu?’
7I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?’
8Ac nga fahk, ‘Leum, su kom an?’ Na el fahk, ‘Nga Jesus lun Nazareth, su kom kalyei.’
8‘Who are You, Lord?’ I asked. ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting,’ He replied.
9Mwet ma wiyu elos liye kalem sac, tusruk elos tiana lohng pusren el su kaskas nu sik.
9My companions saw the light, but they could not understand the voice of the One speaking to me.
10Ac nga siyuk, ‘Leum, mea nga ac oru?’ Ac Leum el fahk nu sik, ‘Tuyak ac fahla nu Damascus, na ac tufah fwackot ma nukewa Leum El wotela kom in oru uh.’
10Then I asked, ‘What should I do, Lord?’ ‘Get up and go into Damascus,’ He told me. ‘There you will be told all that you have been appointed to do.’
11Kunla mutuk ke sripen kalem sac, ouinge mwet wiyu elos sruokya pouk ac pwenyuyak nu Damascus.
11Because the brilliance of the light had blinded me, my companions led me by the hand into Damascus.
12“Oasr mukul se muta in siti sac pangpang Ananias, sie mwet alu nu sin God, su akos Ma Sap lasr uh ac arulana akfulatyeyuk el sin mwet Jew nukewa su muta we.
12There a man named Ananias, a devout observer of the law who was highly regarded by all the Jews living there,
13El tuku tu yuruk ac fahk, ‘Saul, ma lik, kom in sifilpa liye!’ In pacl sacna nga ku lac in liye, ac nga ngetang nu sel.
13came and stood beside me. ‘Brother Saul,’ he said, ‘receive your sight.’ And at that moment I could see him.
14Na el fahk, ‘God lun mwet matu lasr somla El sulekomla in etu ma lungse lal, ac in liye Mwet Kulansap suwoswos lal, ac in lohng pusracl ke el kaskas nu sum.
14Then he said, ‘The God of our fathers has appointed you to know His will, and to see the Righteous One, and to hear His voice.
15Kom ac fah sie mwet loh lal, in fahk nu sin mwet nukewa ma kom liye ac lohng.
15You will be His witness to everyone of what you have seen and heard.
16Na mea kom soano an? Tuyak ac baptaisla, tuh ma koluk lom in nasnasla ke kom pre inen Leum.’
16And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized, and wash your sins away, calling on His name.’
17“Nga folokla nu Jerusalem, ac ke nga pre in Tempul, nga liye sie aruruma,
17Later, when I had returned to Jerusalem and was praying at the temple, I fell into a trance
18ac in aruruma sac Leum el fahk nu sik, ‘Sulaklak som liki acn Jerusalem, mweyen mwet yenu inge ac tia lulalfongi ma kom ac fahk keik uh.’
18and saw the Lord saying to me, ‘Hurry! Leave Jerusalem quickly, because the people here will not accept your testimony about Me.’
19Ac nga fahk, ‘Leum, elos arulana etu lah nga tuh som nu iwen lolngok uh, sruokya ac uni mwet ma lulalfongi in kom uh.
19‘Lord,’ I answered, ‘they know very well that in one synagogue after another I imprisoned and beat those who believed in You.
20Ac ke pacl se ma anwuki Stephen, mwet kulansap lom, nga tuh wi pac muta insac. Nga insese nu ke ma orek nu sel ah, ac nga pa muta liyaung nuknuk lun mwet ma unilya ah.’
20And when the blood of Your witness Stephen was shed, I stood there giving my approval and watching over the garments of those who killed him.’
21Ac Leum el fahk nu sik, ‘Fahla, tuh nga ac supwekomla nu yen loessula, nu yurin mwet sayen mwet Jew.’”
21Then He said to me, ‘Go! I will send you far away to the Gentiles.’”
22Mwet uh lipsre kas lal Paul uh nwe ke el fahkla ma inge; na elos mutawauk in wowoyak ke kuiyalos nufon ac fahk, “Sisulla! Unilya! Tia fal elan moul!”
22The crowd listened to Paul until he made this statement. Then they lifted up their voices and shouted, “Rid the earth of him! He is not fit to live!”
23Elos wowoyak, furok nuknuk lalos uh, ac sis fohkfok uh nu lucng.
23As they were shouting and throwing off their cloaks and tossing dust into the air,
24Leum se lun mwet mweun Rome uh sap mwet lal in eisal Paul nu inkul lalos uh, ac el sap elos in srunglul ac konauk lah efu ku mwet Jew uh wowo lainul ouinge.
24the commander ordered that Paul be brought into the barracks. He directed that Paul be flogged and interrogated to determine the reason for this outcry against him.
25Tusruktu ke elos kaprilya in sringsring el, Paul el siyuk sin sie pac mwet leum lun solse su tu insac, “Ya ma sap uh lela in sringsring sie mwet Rome meet liki nununkeyuk el?”
25But as they stretched him out to strap him down, Paul said to the centurion standing there, “Is it lawful for you to flog a Roman citizen without a trial?”
26Ke mwet leum sac lohng ma se inge, el som nu yurin leum fulat sac ac siyuk sel, “Mea se kom nunku in oru uh? El ah el mwet Rome!”
26On hearing this, the centurion went and reported it to the commander. “What are you going to do?” he said. “This man is a Roman citizen.”
27Ouinge leum fulat sac som nu yorol Paul ac siyuk sel, “Fahkma nu sik, ya kom mwet Rome?” Ac Paul el fahk, “Aok.”
27The commander went to Paul and asked, “Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?” “Yes,” he answered.
28Na leum sac fahk, “Nga tuh moli sie mani na yohk tuh nga in oaoa sie mwet Rome.” Ac Paul el fahk, “Nga nuna mwet Rome se e ke nga isusla.”
28“I paid a high price for my citizenship,” said the commander. “But I was born a citizen,” Paul replied.
29In pacl sacna mwet ma ako in kusen siyuk nu sel Paul uh elos kilukla lukel, ac leum sac fosrngala ke el etauk lah el kapriya sie mwet Rome.
29Then those who were about to interrogate Paul stepped back, and the commander himself was alarmed when he realized that he had put a Roman citizen in chains.
30Mwet leum sac kena konauk lah mea mwet Jew uh srukak in lainul Paul kac uh; ouinge ke len se tok ah el sap in itukla sein uh lukel Paul, ac el sap mwet tol fulat ac Un Mwet Pwapa Fulat nukewa elos in toeni. Na el usalla Paul ac sap elan tu ye mutalos.
30The next day the commander, wanting to learn the real reason Paul was accused by the Jews, released him and ordered the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin to assemble. Then he brought Paul down and had him stand before them.
