¹YA anae manescapa esta, ayonae matungo na y isla naanña Melita.

¹When we had escaped, then they NU reads “we” learned that the island was called Malta.

²Ya y taotao ti mangilisyano, jafamaulegjam: sa manmanotne guafe ya jaresibejam cada uno, sa pot y ichan, yan y manenggeng.

²The natives showed us uncommon kindness; for they kindled a fire, and received us all, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.

³Ya anae janafandaña si Pablo y palitun jayo, ya jamanojo ya japolo gui jilo y guate, jumuyong un vibora guinin y maipe, ya cheton gui canaeña.

³But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

⁴Ya anae malie ni y taotao ti mangilisyano y beneno na gâgâ na umacalaye gui canaeña, manasangane ilegñija: Este na taotao pegno, masqueseaja umescapa gui tase; lao ti upinelo ni y inenog na ulâlâ.

⁴When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said one to another, “No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet Justice has not allowed to live.”

⁵Ya jasacude y gâgâ guato gui jalom guafe, ya ti ninalamen.

⁵However he shook off the creature into the fire, and wasn’t harmed.

⁶Ya mataaatanja cao uninapogpog, pat upodong enseguidas ya umatae; lao anae esta laapmam na maatan, ya malie na ti ninalamen, jatulaeca y jinasoñija, ya ilegñija na yuus güe.

⁶But they expected that he would have swollen or fallen down dead suddenly, but when they watched for a long time and saw nothing bad happen to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.

⁷¶ Ayo na lugat, guaja fangualuanña sija y magas y isla, na y naanña si Publio; ni y rumesibejam, ya janafañagajam tres na jaane.

⁷Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us, and courteously entertained us for three days.

⁸Ya y tatan Publio estaba na umaason sa malango calentura, yan jinaga: ya jumalom si Pablo, ya anae munjayan manaetae, japolo y canaeña gui jilo y malango, ya janajomlo.

⁸It happened that the father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery. Paul entered in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.

⁹Ya anae munjayan este, y palo locue gui isla ni y guaja chetnotñija, manmato ya uninafanjomlo.

⁹Then when this was done, the rest also who had diseases in the island came, and were cured.

¹⁰Ya gosmegae manmatunanmame; ya anae majanaojam, manmacatgayejam ni ayo sija y innesesita,

¹⁰They also honored us with many honors, and when we sailed, they put on board the things that we needed.

¹¹¶ Ya anae malofan tres meses, manjanaojam gui un batco Alejandrina, ni y estaba gui isla na mannanangga na ufalofan y tiempon manenggeng, na y señatña Castor yan Polux.

¹¹After three months, we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose sign was “The Twin Brothers.”

¹²Ya anae manmatojam Siracusa, mañagajam güije tres na jaane.

¹²Touching at Syracuse, we stayed there three days.

¹³Ya desde ayo manoriyajam, ya manmatojam guiya Regio; ya anae malofan un jaane na manguaefe y manglo sanjaya, manmatojam guiya Puteoli gui inagpaña.

¹³From there we circled around and arrived at Rhegium. After one day, a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,

¹⁴Ya manmañodajam mañelumame güije, ya manmalago na infañaga ya infanjame siete na jaane; ya ayonae infanmalag Roma.

¹⁴where we found brothers, The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” and were entreated to stay with them for seven days. So we came to Rome.

¹⁵Ya desde ayo, anae manmajungogjam ni y mañelunmame, manmato para ujatagamjam, asta y Metcadon Appio, yan y Tres Taberna; ni y anae jalie si Pablo, janae grasia si Yuus, ya jaangoco.

¹⁵From there the brothers, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God, and took courage.

¹⁶¶ Ya anae manmatojam Roma, y senturuon jaentrega y preso sija gui magas y guatdia: lao si Pablo mapolo na usaga namaesa yan un sendalo ni y umadadaje güe.

¹⁶When we entered into Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard, but Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.

¹⁷Ya susede anae malofan tres na jaane, jaagang si Pablo y manmagas y Judio sija; ya anae manmato ya mandaña, ilegña nu sija: Guajo mañelujo lalaje, achogja taya finatinaso contra y taotao sija, ni contra y costumbren y mañaenata jumaentrega preso desde Jerusalem asta y canae y taotao Roma:

¹⁷It happened that after three days Paul called together those who were the leaders of the Jews. When they had come together, he said to them, “I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,

¹⁸Ni y para yaguin munjayan maegsaminayo, manmalago na jumasotta, sa taya jafa finatinaso para jumapuno.

¹⁸who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.

¹⁹Lao anae macontra ni y Judio sija, nesesitayo na jugagao jinisga gui as Sesat; ti pot para jufaaela y nasionjo.

¹⁹But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.

²⁰Ya pot este rason juagang jamyo, para julie jamyo, yan para utafanguentos: sa pot y ninanggan Israel na magodeyo ni este na cadena.

²⁰For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.”

²¹Ya ilegñija nu güiya: Jame taya rinesibenmame carta guiya Judea pot jago, ni uno gui mañelo ni y manmato, cumuentos pat manmañangane jafa pot jago.

²¹They said to him, “We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.

²²Lao manmalagojam na injingog jao, jafa jinasosomo; sa este na secta, intingoja na masqueseaja mano guato masangan contra.

²²But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against.”

²³¶ Ya anae esta matanchue un jaane, manmato megae guiya güiya, gui sagaña; ya jasangane yan janamatungo y raenon Yuus: janafanmañaña sija pot si Jesus, yan pot y tinago Moises, yan pot y profeta sija; desde y egaan asta y pupuenge.

²³When they had appointed him a day, many people came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying about the Kingdom of God, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning until evening.

²⁴Ya palo, manmanjonggue ni y sinangan, palo ti manmanjonggue.

²⁴Some believed the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved.

²⁵Ya anae ti unoja corasonñija, manjanao anae munjayan jasangan si Pablo un sinangan: Mauleg sinanganña y Espiritu Santo pot y profeta Isaias gui mañaenata,

²⁵When they didn’t agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one word, “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah, the prophet, to our fathers,

²⁶Ilegña: Janao fanmalag este sija na taotao, ya inalog, Inecungog, ya injingog, ya ti incomprende; ya y inquelie, inlie, ya ti intingo.

²⁶saying, ‘Go to this people, and say, in hearing, you will hear, but will in no way understand. In seeing, you will see, but will in no way perceive.

²⁷Sa y corason este sija na taotao, manmajetog, ya y talanganñija mapot manmanjungog, ya jajuchom y atadogñija; sa noseaja ufanmanlie ni y atadogñija, yan ufanmanjungog ni y talanganñija, yan ujatungo ni y corasonñija, ya ufanmañotsot, ya janafanjomlo sija.

²⁷For this people’s heart has grown callous. Their ears are dull of hearing. Their eyes they have closed. Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, and I would heal them.’ Isaiah 6:9-10

²⁸Enaomina tingo na y este satbasion gui as Yuus manajanao para y Gentiles sija; ya sija ujajungog.

²⁸“Be it known therefore to you, that the salvation of God is sent to the nations. They will also listen.”

²⁹(Ya anae munjayan jasangan este sija na sinangan, manjanao y Judio sija, ya gueguesmanafaesen entre sija;)

²⁹When he had said these words, the Jews departed, having a great dispute among themselves.

³⁰Ya si Pablo sumaga dos años gui inatquilaña na guma; ya jaresibe todo ayo sija y manmato guiya güiya,

³⁰Paul stayed two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who were coming to him,

³¹Japredidica y raenon Yuus, yan mamananagüe ni ayo sija y pot y Señot Jesucristo, contodo y linibriña, ya taya ni un taotao chumoma.

³¹preaching the Kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.
