¹Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews:

¹O Pavlo ai o Silas nakhle pai Amphipolis, ai pai Apollonia, ai aresle ande Thessalonica, kai le Zhiduvuria sas le synagogue kotse.

²and Paul, as his custom was, went in unto them, and for three sabbath days reasoned with them from the Scriptures,

²Sar kerelas wo butivar, o Pavlo, dia andre ande synagogue, trin Savatone gelo ai divinilas lensa pa zakonuria le Devlesko.

³opening and alleging that it behooved the Christ to suffer, and to rise again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom, [said he,] I proclaim unto you, is the Christ.

³Motholas lenge ai sikavelas lenge, ke O Kristo trobulas te chinuil, ai te zhuvindil mashkar le mule; ai kado Jesus, kai mothav tumenge pa leste, wo si O Kristo.

⁴And some of them were persuaded, and consorted with Paul and Silas, and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.

⁴Uni anda lende pachaie, ai raduimesas le Pavlosa ai o Silas, ai but andal Grekuria rhuginaspe ka Del, ai vi but zhuvlia kai sas gojaver.

⁵But the Jews, being moved with jealousy, took unto them certain vile fellows of the rabble, and gathering a crowd, set the city on an uproar; and assaulting the house of Jason, they sought to bring them forth to the people.

⁵Le zhiduvuria kai chi pachanaspe ando Del nas lenge mishto, ai line pesa uni manushen kai nas lashe, kai kerenas baio mashkar o narodo, ai kerde bunto ando foro, ai gele ka kher ieke manushesko kai busholas Jason, ai rodenas kotse o Pavlo ai o Silas te anen le ka narodo.

⁶And when they found them not, they dragged Jason and certain brethren before the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside down are come hither also;

⁶Numa chi arakhle le, line kodole manushes kai busholas Jason, ai mai avre phralen kai zhandari kodole foroske ai tsipinas, "Kadala manush sa rimosarde e lumia, avile vi katse.

⁷whom Jason hath received: and these all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, [one] Jesus.

⁷Ai o Jason meklia le te aven leste, ai sa kado narodo chi keren o zakono amare amperatosko, o Caesar, phenenas, ke si aver amperato kai bushol Jesus."

⁸And they troubled the multitude and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things.

⁸Kodola vorbi xoliarde le narodos, ai le zhandari kai sas ando foro.

⁹And when they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.

⁹O Jason ai le kolaver kai sas lesa, pochinde love kai zhandari ai o zhandari meklia le pala kodia.

¹⁰And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Beroea: who when they were come thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.

¹⁰Strazo le phral kodia riat phende le Pavloske ai o Silas te zhantar ande Berea, ai kana aresle kotse dine ande khangeri le Zhidovonge.

¹¹Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of the mind, examining the Scriptures daily, whether these things were so.

¹¹Kodola Zhiduvuria mai lashe sas de sar le Zhiduvuria kai sas ande Thessalonica, ashunde E Vorba le Devleski dragosa, ai swako dies lenas sama ande Vorba le Devleski, te si vorta so mothonas lenge.

¹²Many of them therefore believed; also of the Greek women of honorable estate, and of men, not a few.

¹²But anda lende pachaiepe, ai vi but zhuvlia kai sas Grekaiki, kai sas andai vitsa le barvalenge, ai but manush.

¹³But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was proclaimed of Paul at Beroea also, they came thither likewise, stirring up and troubling the multitudes.

¹³Numa kana le Zhiduvuria andai Thessalonica ashunde ke o Pavlo motholas pai Vorba le Devleski ande Berea, gele kotse te rimon le narodos.

¹⁴And then immediately the brethren sent forth Paul to go as far as to the sea: and Silas and Timothy abode there still.

¹⁴Strazo kodo phral kotsar phende le Pauloske te zhaltar karing o pai, numa o Silas ai o Timothy beshlo ande Berea.

¹⁵But they that conducted Paul brought him as far as Athens: and receiving a commandment unto Silas and Timothy that they should come to him with all speed, they departed.

¹⁵Kodola kai angerenas le Paulos, gele lesa zhi ande Athens, porme mekle les, ai geletar palpale, ai o Pavlo phendia lenge te phenel le Silasoske ai o Timothy te aven leste mai sigo.

¹⁶Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he beheld the city full of idols.

¹⁶O Pavlo azhukerelas le ande Athens, numa haliarelas ande peste ke lesko duxo nas leske mishto, ke dikhlia le manush rhuginaspe kal ikoni ande sa kodo foro.

¹⁷So he reasoned in the synagogue with Jews and the devout persons, and in the marketplace every day with them that met him.

¹⁷Divinilas ande khangeri le Zhidovonsa, ai vi kodolensa kai nas Zhiduvuria ai kai rhuginaspe ka Del. Ai vi kodolensa ando foro mashkaral po bazari swako dies kai arakhelas.

¹⁸And certain also of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers encountered him. And some said, What would this babbler say? others, He seemeth to be a setter forth of strange gods: because he preached Jesus and the resurrection.

¹⁸Uni andal dokxtoria le Epicureononge ai le Stoiconge marenas mui le Paulosa, uni mothonas, "So si kado divano?" Uni kai ashunenas ke mothol pa Jesus ai pa zhuvindimos, mothonas, "Wo mothol pa aver dela."

¹⁹And they took hold of him, and brought him unto the Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new teaching is, which is spoken by thee?

¹⁹Antunchi line les, ai angerde les ka Areopagus, phenenas, "Mangas te zhanas so si kado nevo zakono kai tu sichares?

²⁰For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears: we would know therefore what these things mean.

²⁰Ke tu keres ame te ashunas dieli kai si shode. Ame mangliamas te zhanas so si kodola dieli."

²¹(Now all the Athenians and the strangers sojourning there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell or to hear some new thing.)

²¹Sa le manush kai beshenas ande Athens ai le streia kai beshenas ande Athens, nakhavenas penge vriama te mothon vai te ashunen nevimos.

²²And Paul stood in the midst of the Areopagus, and said, Ye men of Athens, in all things, I perceive that ye are very religious.

²²Antunchi o Pavlo beshlo ande punrhende po plai bushol 'Mars', ai phendia lenge, "Tume kai san andai Athens, me dikhav ke tume san manush kai roden le zakonuria le devlenge ande soste godi.

²³For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription, TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. What therefore ye worship in ignorance, this I set forth unto you.

²³Chaches nakhlem angla tumaro foro, ai dikhlem savendar dieli si tume te keren tumare khangeria, ai vi arakhlem ek than kai si ramome pe leste, "Kai ek del kai chi zhanas." Tume rhuginpe ka leste bi te zhanen les. Pa kodo si kai mothav tumenge.

²⁴The God that made the world and all things therein, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;

²⁴O Del kai kerdia e lumia ai so godi si, wo si o baro po cheri ai pe phuv, chi beshel andel tampluria (khangeria) kai kerde le manush andel vas.

²⁵neither is he served by men's hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself giveth to all life, and breath, and all things;

²⁵Nai podaime le manushenge vastensa, sar te trobulsardino les vari so, wo kai del savorhen o traio, ai barval, ai vi la kolaver dieli.

²⁶and he made of one every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, having determined [their] appointed seasons, and the bounds of their habitation;

²⁶Kerdia sa le manushen te aven anda iek rat, ai te beshen pe sa e lumia, ai thodia e vriama mai anglal, ai le thana vorta kai trobulas te beshen.

²⁷that they should seek God, if haply they might feel after him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us:

²⁷Wo manglia le manush te roden le Devles, ai te thon zor te arakhen les le rodemasa, marka ke nai dur amendar.

²⁸for in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain even of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.

²⁸Ke ande leste si ame o traio, ai sai mishtisavas, ai sam so sam, ai vi tumare gramnoturia phende, "Ke leske shave sam."

²⁹Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and device of man.

²⁹Te sam andal shave le Devleske, nashti pachas ke O Del si sar o sumnkai, vai sar o rup, vai sar o bax, kai sas ramome katar e buchi ai katar le mashinki le manusheske.

³⁰The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked; but now he commandeth men that they should all everywhere repent:

³⁰O Del chi mai lel sama palpale kana sas le vriama kai le manush chi zhanenas kanch, akana mothol sa le manushenge kai godi si te keinpe anda penge bezexa.

³¹inasmuch as he hath appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.

³¹Ke thodia ek dies, kai kerela kris pe lumia le chachimasa ieke manushesa kai wo alosardia; dia te zhanen savorhe kana andai kodole manushes, katar e martia ka traio.

³²Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, We will hear thee concerning this yet again.

³²Kana ashunde pa zhuvindimos mashkar le mule, uni asanas, ai uni mothonas, pe kadia buchi pa zhuvindimos desa amensa duma aver data.

³³Thus Paul went out from among them.

³³Porme o Pavlo gelotar mashkar lende.

³⁴But certain men clave unto him, and believed: among whom also was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

³⁴Numa uni linepe pala leste, ai pachaiepe, mashkar lende sas ek manush kai busholas Dionysius, ai wo sas anda kodo narodo kai chidelaspe te keren kris. E zhuvli kai busholas Damaris pachaiape ai mai aver lensa.
