Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1After these things Paul departed from Athens and came to Corinth.
1Ngadani Paulus Atheningundru danina wonti, ja Korinthungu wokarana wonti.
2He found a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by race, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome. He came to them,
2Ja nulu Juda kana kulno mankamankana wonti, tala nunkani Aquilas, Pontungu matja dankana, nau kalkani Italiandru wokarana paraia, nunkani noali Priscilla jela, ngangau Claudiusulu Juda kana pratjanani jirijiribana paraia Romangundru puntinanto; pudlangu nau wirina wonti.
3and because he practiced the same trade, he lived with them and worked, for by trade they were tent makers.
3Ja ngangau nau nunkani mangini nganana wonti, nau pudlangunto ngamana wonti ja ngankana wonti, ngangau pudla katipunga ngankanietja nganana wonti.
4He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath and persuaded Jews and Greeks.
4Sabbat ditji pratjanani nulu tanangu kaukaubana wonti, ja Juda kana ja Grieka kana karkarkana wonti.
5When Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
5Silas ja Timotheus Macedoniandru matja ngarina, Jaolali Paulus patana wonti, Juda kanani jiglerali morlalu kurala, Jesus nganai Christus.
6When they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook out his clothing and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am clean. From now on, I will go to the Gentiles!”
6Tana delkinani ja ngirkibanani, nulu kati nunkani kantikantina wonti ja tanangu jatana wonti: „Kumari jurani jurangu mangatandrani wokaraiatimai! matja kulirkana ngani kararindru kana koni wapai.“
7He departed there and went into the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.
7Ja nau nakandru wapana wonti, ja kana kulnuja pungani wirina wonti, tala nunkani Titus Justus, nau Godandru japali nganana wonti, ja nunkani punga jaura pungani karakara parana wonti.
8Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house. Many of the Corinthians, when they heard, believed and were baptized.
8Jaura pungaia kaparali, Krispus, Kaparani morlalu ngundrana wonti, nunkani pungantali jela; ja Korinthala marapujeli nina matja ngarana, tana morlalu ngundrana wonti, ja multibanila manina wonti.
9The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, “Don’t be afraid, but speak and don’t be silent;
9Kapara tinkani Paulungu mudlamalkali jatana wonti: „Wata japali nganau, a‐ai, kaukaubau, ja wata ngapuriau!
10for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city.”
10Ngangau ngani jinkangunto nganai, ja wata kulnujeli jidna patananto, jinkangu madlentji ngankala; ngangau ngato kana wolara nunkangupini ngurani ngamalkai.“
11He lived there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
11Nau naka kilpawoldra kulno ja pira mara wora ja kulno ngamana wonti, ja nulu tanangu Godaia jaura ngujangujara jinkina wonti.
12But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,
12Gallion Achajaia kapakapara ngananani, Juda kana kulnukulnuni Paulungu tiriterkakana wonti, ja nina kalala pirini wapalkana wonti,
13saying, “This man persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”
13Ja jatana wonti: „Nulupini kana worana karkarkai Godangu wodatarana ngamananto, mina jirijiribani jaurani delkiai.“
14But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, “If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked crime, you Jews, it would be reasonable that I should bear with you;
14Paulus jertapaterinani mana wilparila, Gallion Juda kanani jatana wonti: „Jenia ngirkibani ngananani kara, kankuja ngankani madlentji jeri kara, Juda kana worajai! ngato jurana talku ngarananto.
15but if they are questions about words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves. For I don’t want to be a judge of these matters.”
15Jenia tirijakalkijiribamalini ngananani ngujangujarandru ja talandru ja jurani jirijiribani jaurandru, jura munta najinanto; ngato wata ngantjai jeniandru kalala jinkinietja nganala.“
16So he drove them from the judgment seat.
16Ja nulu tanana kalala pirindru narrana wonti.
17Then all the Greeks seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. Gallio didn’t care about any of these things.
17Grieka kana pratjanali Sosthenes jaura pungaia kapara patana wonti, ja nina nandrana wonti kalala piria mudlani; ja Gallioningu jenia jeribaka nganana wonti.
18Paul, having stayed after this many more days, took his leave of the brothers, and sailed from there for Syria, together with Priscilla and Aquila. He shaved his head in Cenchreae, for he had a vow.
18Paulus miljaru palpa morla naka matja ngamana, nau ngatatandru danina wonti, ja Syriaia pararana wonti, ja nunkangunto Priscilla ja Aquilas; ja nulu Kenchreangu para nunkani wokaribana wonti, ngangau nulu talpadakani ngamalkana wonti.
19He came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself entered into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.
19Nau Ephesungu wokarana wonti, ja pudlana naka worarana wonti; nau munta jaura pungani wirina wonti, ja Juda kanani ngankamalina wonti.
20When they asked him to stay with them a longer time, he declined;
20Tana nunkangu ngatjina wonti, nau tanangu morla ngamananto; ja nau wata jertapaterina wonti.
21but taking his leave of them, he said, “I must by all means keep this coming feast in Jerusalem, but I will return again to you if God wills.” Then he set sail from Ephesus.
21A‐ai, nau tanangundru danina wonti ja jatana wonti: „Ngani kantji nunkangupini ditji pirnani, nau karakara, Jerusalemingu ngamananto; nakaldra ngani jurangu tikala nganai, Goda jertapaterinani.“ Ja nau Ephesungundru puntina wonti.
22When he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the assembly, and went down to Antioch.
22Ja Cäsareangu wokarana wonti. Ja nau tarana wonti mili wolarani mandurini jaura jinkila, ja ngarina wonti Antiochiaia.
23Having spent some time there, he departed and went through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, in order, establishing all the disciples.
23Ja nau naka miljaru palpa matja ngamana, nau wapana wonti, ja Galatia mitani ja Phrygiani palkingana wonti, ja mili pratjana ngurunguru ngankana wonti.
24Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by race, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus. He was mighty in the Scriptures.
24Juda kana kulno, tala nunkani Apollo, Alexandrini matja dankana, Ephesingu wokarana wonti, nau kana tali tjanka ja Godaia jaurani ngurunguru nganana wonti.
25This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, although he knew only the baptism of John.
25Nulupini Kaparaia paltuni ngujangujara manina wonti, ja nulu Jaolali manamirieli kaukaubana wonti, ja nulu jiglerali Jesungundru ngujangujara jinkina wonti, ja nulu windri Johannini multibanilandru ngujamana wonti.
26He began to speak boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside, and explained to him the way of God more accurately.
26Ja nulupini wonina wonti manubakujeli jaura pungani kaukaukala. Aquilasili ja Priscillali nina matja ngarana, pudlali nina patana wonti, ja Godaia palto nunkangu morla talku mildiri ngankijiribana wonti.
27When he had determined to pass over into Achaia, the brothers encouraged him; and wrote to the disciples to receive him. When he had come, he greatly helped those who had believed through grace;
27Nulu ngundranani Achajaia palkala, ngatatajeli mili wolarani dakana wonti, ja tanana kurukurubana wonti, tanali nina patananto; ja nau matja wokarana, nulu tanangu, tanali morlalu ngundrana wonti, murlali pirna marangokana wonti;
28for he powerfully refuted the Jews, publicly showing by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.
28Ngangau ngurungurujeli nulu Juda kanali kantji kalalu ngankana wonti, ja Godaia jaurali wondrana wonti, Jesus nganai Christus.
