Wolof: New Testament

Acts

14

1And it came to pass in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake that a great multitude both of Jews and of Greeks believed.
1 Bi Pool ak Barnabas nekkee Ikoñum nag, ñu dugg ci jàngub Yawut ya, ni ñu ko daan defe; ñuy waare, ba mbooloom Yawut ak Gereg mu bare gëm.
2But the Jews that were disobedient stirred up the souls of the Gentiles, and made them evil affected against the brethren.
2 Waaye Yawut yu nanguwul yi ñoo jógloo ñi dul Yawut, di ñaawal seen njort ci bokki taalibe yi.
3Long time therefore they tarried [there] speaking boldly in the Lord, who bare witness unto the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
3 Pool ak Barnabas nag sax nañu ci Ikoñum lu yàgg, ñu wéeru ci Boroom bi, bay wax ak fit wu dëgër; te Yàlla dëggal kàddug yiwam, ba may leen, ñu def ay kéemaan ak ay firnde.
4But the multitude of the city was divided; and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.
4 Noonu waa dëkk bi xàjjalikoo, ñii far ak Yawut yi, ñale far ak ndaw ya.
5And when there was made an onset both of the Gentiles and of the Jews with their rulers, to treat them shamefully and to stone them,
5 Waaye ñi dul Yawut ak Yawut yi, ñoom ak seeni kilifa, lal pexem fitnaal leen ci sànni ay doj.
6they became aware of it, and fled unto the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the region round about:
6 Bi ko Pool ak Barnabas yégee nag, ñu daw ca diiwaanu Likawni ca dëkk ya ñuy wax Listar ak Derbë ak wàllaa ya.
7and there they preached the gospel.
7 Foofa ñu di fa xamle xebaar bu baax bi.
8And at Lystra there sat a certain man, impotent in his feet, a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked.
8 Amoon na ca Listar nag nit ku fa toog, ku ay tànkam làggi, ndax li mu judduwaale lafañ te musul a dox.
9The same heard Paul speaking, who, fastening eyes upon him, and seeing that he had faith to be made whole,
9 Moom nag muy déglu Pool miy waare. Noonu Pool xool ko jàkk, gis ne, am na ngëm ngir wér.
10said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped up and walked.
10 Mu ne ko ak baat bu dëgër: «Jógal taxaw bu jub.» Noonu nit ki ne bërét, jóg, daldi dox.
11And when the multitude saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.
11 Bi mbooloo ma gisee li Pool def, ñu daldi yuuxu, ne ci làkku waa Likawni: «Yàlla yi soppiku nañu nit, wàcc ci nun.»
12And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercury, because he was the chief speaker.
12 Noonu ñu tudde Barnabas, Sës, te tudde Pool, Ermes, ndaxte mooy ki yor wax ji.
13And the priest of Jupiter whose [temple] was before the city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the multitudes.
13 Fekk ci buntu dëkk ba amoon na fa kër gu ñuy màggale Sës. Saraxalekat ba nag ànd ak mbooloo ma, daldi indi ca bunt ya ay yëkk ak ay caq, yi ñu defare tóor-tóor, ngir màggal leen ci tuur deretu mala.
14But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of it, they rent their garments, and sprang forth among the multitude, crying out
14 Waaye bi ko ndaw yi Barnabas ak Sool déggee, ñu sib ko ba xotti seeni yére, ñu daldi daw, tàbbi ca mbooloo ma, di wax ci kaw ne:
15and saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and bring you good tidings, that ye should turn from these vain things unto a living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that in them is:
15 «Yéen nit ñi, lu leen xiir ci lii? Nun it ay nit lanu, ñu bokk bind ak yéen. Te nu ngi leen di xamal xebaar bu baax ne leen, ngeen dëddu yëfi neen yii te woññiku ci Yàlla miy dund te sàkk asamaan, suuf, géej ak li ñu ëmb lépp.
16who in the generations gone by suffered all the nations to walk in their own ways.
16 Démb mayoon na xeet yépp, ñu aw seen yoonu bopp.
17And yet He left not himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you from heaven rains and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.
17 Moona noppiwul a firndeel aw meloom ci def lu baax, di leen wàcceele ci asamaan taw buy indi naataange, ba ngeen lekk ba suur, te seen xol fees ak mbég.»
18And with these sayings scarce restrained they the multitudes from doing sacrifice unto them.
18 Noonu ci lu jafe yey nañu mbooloo ma ak wax jooju, ba tere leen, ñu rendil leen sarax.
19But there came Jews thither from Antioch and Iconium: and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul, and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.
19 Waaye bi loolu wéyee amoon na ay Yawut yu jóge Ancos ak Ikoñum, ñu fàbbi mbooloo ma, sànni Pool ay doj, ba yaakaar ne dee na, ñu diri ko ba ca gannaaw dëkk ba.
20But as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and entered into the city: and on the morrow he went forth with Barnabas to Derbe.
20 Waaye taalibe ya ñëw wër ko, mu daldi jóg, duggaat ca dëkk ba. Ca suba sa nag, mu ànd ak Barnabas, dem Derbë.
21And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch,
21 Bi ñu fa àggee nag, ñu xamle fa xebaar bu baax bi, ba sàkk fa ay taalibe yu bare. Gannaaw loolu ñu dellusi Listar, Ikoñum ak Ancos,
22confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.
22 di dooleel xeli taalibe ya, xiir leen ñu sax ci yoon wi; ñu ne leen: «Ci kaw nattu yu bare lanu war a dugge ci nguuru Yàlla.»
23And when they had appointed for them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they had believed.
23 Ci mbooloom ñi gëm mu nekk nag, ñu tànn ci ay njiit; ba noppi ñu ñaan Yàlla ak di woor, dénk leen Boroom bi ñu gëm.
24And they passed through Pisidia, and came to Pamphylia.
24 Gannaaw loolu ñu jaar diiwaanu Pisidi, dikk ci Pamfili.
25And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia;
25 Ñu yégle kàddu gi ci dëkku Peers, door a dem dëkku Atali.
26and thence they sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.
26 Foofa nag ñu dugg gaal, jëm Ancos, fa ñu leen dénke woon ca yiwu Yàlla, ngir liggéey bi ñu àggale.
27And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all things that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith unto the Gentiles.
27 Bi ñu agsee, ñu woo mbooloom ñi gëm, nettali leen fi ñu jaar ak Yàlla fépp, ak ni mu ubbee buntu ngëm ci ñi dul Yawut.
28And they tarried no little time with the disciples.
28 Noonu ñu toog ak taalibe ya diir bu yàgg.
