¹Eta Saul consent cen haren hiltzean. Eta eguin cedin dembora hartan persecutione handi Ierusalemen cen Eliçaren contra: eta guciac barreya citecen Iudeaco eta Samariaco comarquetarát, salbu Apostoluac.

¹And Saul was assenting to his death, and there came in that day a great persecution upon the assembly in Jerusalem, all also were scattered abroad in the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles;

²Eta eraman ceçaten Esteben ohorztera Iaincoaren beldurra çuten guiçon batzuc, eta nigar handi eguin ceçaten haren gainean.

²and devout men carried away Stephen, and made great lamentation over him;

³Eta Saulec deseguiten çuen Eliçá, etchez etche sartzen cela: eta tiratuz bortchaz guiçonac eta emazteac presoindeguian eçarten cituen.

³and Saul was making havoc of the assembly, into every house entering, and haling men and women, was giving them up to prison;

⁴Bada barreyatu içan ciradenac baçabiltzan hara huna, Iaincoaren hitza denunciatzen çutela.

⁴they then indeed, having been scattered, went abroad proclaiming good news — the word.

⁵Eta Philippec iautsiric Samariaco hiri batetara, predica ciecén Christ.

⁵And Philip having gone down to a city of Samaria, was preaching to them the Christ,

⁶Eta populua gogo batez behatzen çayon Philippec erraiten çuenari, ençuten eta ikusten cituztela eguiten cituen signoac.

⁶the multitudes also were giving heed to the things spoken by Philip, with one accord, in their hearing and seeing the signs that he was doing,

⁷Ecen spiritu satsuác, heçaz eduquiten ciradenetaric anhitzetaric ilkiten ciraden, ocengui oihuz ceudela: eta anhitz paralytico eta maingu senda cedin.

⁷for unclean spirits came forth from many who were possessed, crying with a loud voice, and many who have been paralytic and lame were healed,

⁸Eta alegrança handi eguin cedin hiri hartan.

⁸and there was great joy in that city.

⁹Eta Simon deitzen cen guiçombat cen, lehendanic hirian encantamenduz vsatzen çuenic, eta Samariaco populua encantatu çuenic, cioela bere buruäz cembeit personage handi cela.

⁹And a certain man, by name Simon, was before in the city using magic, and amazing the nation of Samaria, saying himself to be a certain great one,

¹⁰Ceini behatzen baitzaizquión chipienetic handieneranoco guciac, cioitela, Haur da Iaincoaren verthute handi hura.

¹⁰to whom they were all giving heed, from small unto great, saying, `This one is the great power of God;`

¹¹Eta hari beha çaizcan ceren dembora lucez encantamenduz adimendutaric erauci baitzituen.

¹¹and they were giving heed to him, because of his having for a long time amazed them with deeds of magic.

¹²Baina Philippe sinhetsi çutenean, ceinec denuntiatzen baitzituen Iaincoaren resumari eta Iesus Christen icenari appertenitzen çaizcan gauçác, batheyatzen ciraden bay guiçonac bay emazteac.

¹²And when they believed Philip, proclaiming good news, the things concerning the reign of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized both men and women;

¹³Eta Simonec berac-ere sinhets ceçan, eta batheyatuz gueroztic Philipperen aldetic etzén higuitzen: eta eguiten ciraden signoac eta verthuteac ikusten cituenean, spantatzen cen.

¹³and Simon also himself did believe, and, having been baptized, he was continuing with Philip, beholding also signs and mighty acts being done, he was amazed.

¹⁴Eta ençun çutenean Ierusalemen ciraden Apostoluéc, nola Samariac recebitu çuen Iaincoaren hitza, igor citzaten hetara Pierris eta Ioannes.

¹⁴And the apostles in Jerusalem having heard that Samaria hath received the word of God, did send unto them Peter and John,

¹⁵Hauc hara iautsi içan ciradenean othoitz eguin ceçaten hecgatic, recebi leçatençát Spiritu saindua.

¹⁵who having come down did pray concerning them, that they may receive the Holy Spirit, —

¹⁶(Ecen oraino hetaric batetara-ere etzén iautsi içan, baina solament batheyatuac ciraden Iesus Iaunaren icenean)

¹⁶for as yet he was fallen upon none of them, and only they have been baptized — to the name of the Lord Jesus;

¹⁷Guero paussa citzaten escuac hayén gainean, eta recebi ceçaten Spiritu saindua.

¹⁷then were they laying hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.

¹⁸Orduan ikussiric Simonec ecen Apostoluen escuen paussatzez emaiten cela Spiritu saindua, diru presenta ciecén.

¹⁸And Simon, having beheld that through the laying on of the hands of the apostles, the Holy Spirit is given, brought before them money,

¹⁹Erraiten çuela, Indaçue niri-ere bothere hori, nori-ere escuac gainean paussaturen baitrautzat, recebi deçan Spiritu saindua.

¹⁹saying, `Give also to me this authority, that on whomsoever I may lay the hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit.`

²⁰Baina Pierrisec erran cieçón, Hire diruä hirequin gal dadila, ceren estimatu baituc Iaincoaren dohaina dirutan conquestatzen dela.

²⁰And Peter said unto him, `Thy silver with thee — may it be to destruction! because the gift of God thou didst think to possess through money;

²¹Eztuc hic parteric ez heretageric eguiteco hunetan: ecen hire bihotza eztuc chuchen Iaincoaren aitzinean.

²¹thou hast neither part nor lot in this thing, for thy heart is not right before God;

²²Emendadi bada eure malitia horretaric, eta Iaincoari othoitz eguióc, eya, aguian barka lequidianez eure bihotzeco pensamendua.

²²reform, therefore, from this thy wickedness, and beseech God, if then the purpose of thy heart may be forgiven thee,

²³Ecen behaçun gucizco karminean, eta iniquitatezco estecailluan aicela badiacussát.

²³for in the gall of bitterness, and bond of unrighteousness, I perceive thee being.`

²⁴Orduan ihardesten çuela Simonec erran ceçan, Othoitz eguioçue çuec enegatic Iaunari, erran dituçuen gaucetaric batre guertha eztaquidançát,

²⁴And Simon answering, said, `Beseech ye for me unto the Lord, that nothing may come upon me of the things ye have spoken.`

²⁵Hec bada testificaturic eta denuntiaturic Iaunaren hitza, itzul citecen Ierusalemera, eta anhitz Samaritanoén burgutan Euangelioa predica ceçaten.

²⁵They indeed, therefore, having testified fully, and spoken the word of the Lord, did turn back to Jerusalem; in many villages also of the Samaritans they did proclaim good news.

²⁶Guero Iaunaren Aingueruä minça cequión Philipperi, cioela, Iaiqui adi, eta habil Egu-erdi alderát, Ierusalemetic Gazara iausten den bidera: hura duc desert:

²⁶And a messenger of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, `Arise, and go on toward the south, on the way that is going down from Jerusalem to Gaza,` — this is desert.

²⁷Eta iaiquiric ioan cedin, eta huná, guiçon Ethiopiano Eunuchobat, Ethiopianoén reguina Candaceren azpian manamendu gucia çuenic, cein baitzén haren onhassun guciaren gaineco: eta ethorri içan cen adoratzera Ierusalemera:

²⁷And having arisen, he went on, and lo, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch, a man of rank, of Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to worship to Jerusalem;

²⁸Eta itzultzen cen iarriric cegoela bere carriot gainean, eta iracurtzen çuen Esaias prophetá.

²⁸he was also returning, and is sitting on his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah.

²⁹Orduan erran cieçón Spirituac Philipperi, Hurbil adi, eta hers aquio carriot horri.

²⁹And the Spirit said to Philip, `Go near, and be joined to this chariot;`

³⁰Eta Philippec laster eguinic ençun ceçan hura, iracurtzen çuela Esaias prophetá: eta erran cieçón, Baina aditzen duc iracurtzen duana?

³⁰and Philip having run near, heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, `Dost thou then know what thou dost read?`

³¹Eta harc dio, Eta nola ahal neçaque, baldin norbeitec guida ezpaneça? Eta othoitz eguin cieçon Philipperi iganic iar ledin harequin.

³¹and he said, `Why, how am I able, if some one may not guide me?` he called Philip also, having come up, to sit with him.

³²Eta Scripturaco passage iracurtzen çuena, haur cen, Ardibat beçala heriotzera eraman içan da: eta nola bildots-bat motzen duenaren aitzinean mutu baita, hala eztu irequi vkan bere ahoa

³²And the contents of the Writing that he was reading was this: `As a sheep unto slaughter he was led, and as a lamb before his shearer dumb, so he doth not open his mouth;

³³Haren beheratzean haren iugemendua goratu içan da: baina haren irautea norc contaturen du? ecen altchatzen da lurretic haren vicia.

³³in his humiliation his judgment was taken away, and his generation — who shall declare? because taken from the earth is his life.`

³⁴Eta ihardesten ceraucala Eunuchoac Philipperi, erran ceçan, Othoitz eguiten drauat, norçaz Prophetác erraiten du haur? bere buruäz, ala cembeit bercez?

³⁴And the eunuch answering Philip said, `I pray thee, about whom doth the prophet say this? about himself, or about some other one?`

³⁵Orduan irequiric Philippec bere ahoa eta hassiric Scriptura hunetaric denuntia cieçon Iesus.

³⁵and Philip having opened his mouth, and having begun from this Writing, proclaimed good news to him — Jesus.

³⁶Eta bidean ioaiten ciradela, ethor citecen vr batetara: orduan dio Eunuchoac, Huna vra: cerc empatchatzen nau batheyatu içatetic?

³⁶And as they were going on the way, they came upon a certain water, and the eunuch said, `Lo, water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?`

³⁷Eta erran ceçan Philippec, Baldin sinhesten baduc eure bihotz guciaz, ahal aite. Eta ihardesten çuela harc erran ceçan, Sinhesten diat Iaincoaren Semea dela Iesus Christ.

³⁷[And Philip said, `If thou dost believe out of all the heart, it is lawful;` and he answering said, `I believe Jesus Christ to be the Son of God;`]

³⁸Eta mana ceçan carriota gueldin ledin: eta iauts citecen biac vrera, Philippe eta Eunuchoa: eta batheya ceçan hura.

³⁸and he commanded the chariot to stand still, and they both went down to the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him;

³⁹Eta igan ciradenean vretic, Iaunaren Spirituac harrapa ceçan Philippe, eta guehiagoric etzeçan ikus hura Eunuchoac: eta bere bideaz ioaiten cen alegueraric.

³⁹and when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, and the eunuch saw him no more, for he was going on his way rejoicing;

⁴⁰Baina Philippe eriden cedin Azot-en: eta iragaitean predica ceçan Euangelioa hiri gucietan Cesareara hel leiteno.

⁴⁰and Philip was found at Azotus, and passing through, he was proclaiming good news to all the cities, till his coming to Cesarea.
