1And having journeyed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was the synagogue of the Jews.
1 Waato kaŋ i bisa Amfibolis da Aboloniya, i kaa Tassalonika kwaara, naŋ kaŋ Yahudance diina marga fu fo go.
2And according to Paul's custom he went in among them, and on three sabbaths reasoned with them from the scriptures,
2 Bulos mo nga alaada boŋ furo i do. Asibti hinza no a goono ga kakaw nd'ey Tawreto da Annabey Tirey da Zabura* ra.
3opening and laying down that the Christ must have suffered and risen up from among the dead, and that this is the Christ, Jesus whom *I* announce to you.
3 A goono ga borey fahamandi ka cabe _i se|_ kaŋ a ga tilas no Almasihu ma taabi haŋ, a ma bu ka ye ka tun. A ne: «Yesu wo, kaŋ ay goono g'a baaro waazu araŋ se, nga no ga ti Almasihu.»
4And some of them believed, and joined themselves to Paul and Silas, and of the Greeks who worshipped, a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.
4 I ra boro fooyaŋ bare ka lamba Bulos da Sila gaa. Gareku borey kaŋ yaŋ ga sududu _Irikoy se|_ jama boobo, da wayboro beerey mo, manti jama kayna no.
5But the Jews having been stirred up to jealousy, and taken to [themselves] certain wicked men of the lowest rabble, and having got a crowd together, set the city in confusion; and having beset the house of Jason sought to bring them out to the people;
5 Amma Yahudancey to da canse. I du boro laalo fooyaŋ kwaara boro yaamey ra, ka boro boobo margu, ka kwaara toonandi nda kuraari karyaŋ. I na Yason windo taaru ka furo. I goono ga ceeci ngey ma Bulosyaŋ kaa taray borey do.
6and not having found them, dragged Jason and certain brethren before the politarchs, crying out, These [men] that have set the world in tumult, are come here also,
6 Amma waato kaŋ i mana di ey, i na Yason da nya-izey fooyaŋ candi ka kond'ey kwaara alkaaley jine. I goono ga kuuwa ka ne: «Borey din kaŋ na ndunnya bare, ngey no ka kaa neewo mo. Yason wo mo, a n'i zumandi.
7whom Jason has received; and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying, that there is another king, Jesus.
7 Woone yaŋ kulu goono ga goy ka gaaba nda Kaysar* lordey. I goono ga ne, way, koy fo go no, kaŋ se i ga ne Yesu.»
8And they troubled the crowd and the politarchs when they heard these things.
8 Waato kaŋ borey marga da kwaara alkaaley maa woodin, i laakaley tun.
9And having taken security of Jason and the rest, they let them go.
9 Waato kaŋ i na tolme ta Yason da boro cindey gaa, i n'i taŋ.
10But the brethren immediately sent away, in the night, Paul and Silas to Berea; who, being arrived, went away into the synagogue of the Jews.
10 Sahãadin-sahãadin mo, cino ra, nya-izey na Bulos da Sila donton i ma koy Beriya kwaara. Ngey mo, waato kaŋ i to noodin, i furo Yahudance diina marga fuwo ra.
11And these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, receiving the word with all readiness of mind, daily searching the scriptures if these things were so.
11 Beriya borey mo bisa Tassalonika borey daa hanno, zama i na sanno ta da bine yadda, ka Tawreto da Annabey Tirey da Zabura fintal zaari kulu, ka di hala yaadin no hayey din bara.
12Therefore many from among them believed, and of Grecian women of the upper classes and men not a few.
12 Woodin sabbay se i ra boro boobo cimandi, da Gareku wayboro beerey da alborey mo koyne, manti jama kayna no.
13But when the Jews from Thessalonica knew that the word of God was announced in Berea also by Paul, they came there also, stirring up the crowds.
13 Amma waato kaŋ Tassalonika kwaara Yahudancey du baaru kaŋ Bulos goono ga Irikoy sanno waazu Beriya mo ra, i kaa noodin mo ka borey marga zukku k'i laakaley tunandi.
14And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul to go as to the sea; but Silas and Timotheus abode there.
14 Gaa no, sahãadin-sahãadin nya-izey na Bulos donton hala teeko me, amma Sila da Timotiyos mo goro noodin.
15But they that conducted Paul brought him as far as Athens; and, having received a commandment to Silas and Timotheus, that they should come to him as quickly as possible, they departed.
15 Borey kaŋ yaŋ na Bulos dum mo kand'a hal Atina kwaara. Waato kaŋ i du lordi kaŋ ne Sila da Timotiyos ma kaa a do da waasi, gaa no i dira.
16But in Athens, while Paul was waiting for them, his spirit was painfully excited in him seeing the city given up to idolatry.
16 Waato kaŋ Bulos goono g'i batu noodin Atina, a bina butugu kaŋ a goono ga di kwaara to da tooruyaŋ.
17He reasoned therefore in the synagogue with the Jews, and those who worshipped, and in the market-place every day with those he met with.
17 A kakaw i diina marga fuwo ra da Yahudancey, da _dumi cindey|_ kaŋ yaŋ ga sududu _Irikoy se|_. Habo ra mo zaari kulu a ga kakaw da borey kaŋ yaŋ a ga kubanda.
18But some also of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers attacked him. And some said, What would this chatterer say? and some, He seems to be an announcer of foreign demons, because he announced the glad tidings of Jesus and the resurrection [to them].
18 Boro fooyaŋ mo, Abikariyey ra da Satosiyey fonda borey ra, laakal ceecikoyaŋ, goono ga salaŋ d'a. Boro fooyaŋ goono ga ne: «Boro yaamo woone binde, ifo n'a ga ba nga ma ne?» Boro fooyaŋ mo goono ga ne: «Iri diyaŋ gaa de-koy* yawyaŋ boŋ no a goono ga salaŋ» (zama Bulos goono ga Yesu nda buukoy tunandiyaŋ baaro waazu).
19And having taken hold on him they brought [him] to Areopagus, saying, Might we know what this new doctrine which is spoken by thee [is]?
19 I n'a di ka kond'a Arobasa _marga|_ do ka ne a se: «Iri ga hin ka bay haŋ kaŋ no ga ti dondonandiyaŋ tajo wo, kaŋ ni goono ga te?
20For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears. We wish therefore to know what these things may mean.
20 Zama ni goono ga kande hari taji iri hangey ra. Iri mo ga ba iri ma hayey din feerijo bay.»
21Now all [the] Athenians and the strangers sojourning there spent their time in nothing else than to tell and to hear the news.
21 Zama Atina borey kulu da yawey kaŋ goono ga goro i do sinda hay kulu joogole, kala day ngey ma ci wala mo ngey ma maa hari taji fo.
22And Paul standing in the midst of Areopagus said, Athenians, in every way I see you given up to demon worship;
22 Bulos kay Arobasa _marga|_ bindo ra ka ne: «Ya Atina borey, ay di kaŋ hay kulu ra araŋ wo diina ganako beeriyaŋ no.
23for, passing through and beholding your shrines, I found also an altar on which was inscribed, To the unknown God. Whom therefore ye reverence, not knowing [him], him I announce to you.
23 Zama waato kaŋ ay goono ga bisa, ay go ga di mo hayey kaŋ se araŋ goono ga sombu, kal ay di sargay feema fo kaŋ hantumo wo go a gaa kaŋ ga ne: IRIKOY KA} I SI BAY SE. To! Woodin kaŋ se araŋ goono ga sombu jaŋ-ka-bayyaŋ ra, nga no ay ga ba ay m'a baaro ci araŋ se.
24The God who has made the world and all things which are in it, *he*, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands,
24 Irikoy, nga kaŋ na ndunnya nda hay kulu kaŋ go a ra te, nga ga ti beene nda ganda Koyo. A si goro fu kaŋ i te da kambe ra.
25nor is served by men's hands as needing something, himself giving to all life and breath and all things;
25 Manti mo kambe no boro ga may d'a a se, sanda hal a ga laami hay fo, zama nga bumbo no goono ga hay kulu no: fundi da fulanzamay da hay kulu.
26and has made of one blood every nation of men to dwell upon the whole face of the earth, having determined ordained times and the boundaries of their dwelling,
26 _Boro|_ folloŋ mo no a na Adam-izey dumi kulu te d'a, i ma goro ndunnya kulu boŋ. A na alwaatey mo daŋ i se mate kaŋ nga waadu, d'i goray hirrey,
27that they may seek God; if indeed they might feel after him and find him, although he is not far from each one of us:
27 zama i ma Irikoy ceeci hal i ma dadab ka du a, baa day kaŋ a si mooru iri boro kulu gaa.
28for in him we live and move and exist; as also some of the poets amongst you have said, For we are also his offspring.
28 Zama a ra no iri goono ga funa, iri goono ga nyooti, iri goonoyaŋo bara mo, mate kaŋ araŋ doonkoy ra boro fooyaŋ mo ne: ‹Zama iri mo a izeyaŋ no.›
29Being therefore [the] offspring of God, we ought not to think that which is divine to be like gold or silver or stone, [the] graven form of man's art and imagination.
29 To! Za kaŋ iri ya Irikoy izeyaŋ no, a si hima iri ma tammahã hala Irikoy barayaŋ ga hima sanda wura cine, wala nzarfu, wala tondi jabante, haŋ kaŋ boro ga du nga gonitaray da nga lasaabuyaŋo ra.
30God therefore, having overlooked the times of ignorance, now enjoins men that they shall all everywhere repent,
30 Ammataray jirbey, Irikoy n'i muray, amma sohõ a goono ga borey kulu lordi nangu kulu ka ne i ma tuubi,
31because he has set a day in which he is going to judge the habitable earth in righteousness by [the] man whom he has appointed, giving the proof [of it] to all [in] having raised him from among [the] dead.
31 za kaŋ Irikoy na zaari fo daŋ kaŋ ra a ga ndunnya kulu ciiti adilitaray boŋ. A g'a te mo bora kaŋ a waadu do, kaŋ boŋ Irikoy tabbatandi boro kulu se za kaŋ a n'a tunandi ka kaa buukoy game ra.»
32And when they heard [of the] resurrection of the dead, some mocked, and some said, We will hear thee again also concerning this.
32 Waato kaŋ i maa buukoy tunandiyaŋo sanno, i ra boro fooyaŋ haaru. Amma boro fooyaŋ ne: «Iri ga ye ka maa ni se koyne sanno wo boŋ.»
33Thus Paul went out of their midst.
33 Gaa no Bulos fatta i game ra.
34But some men joining themselves to him believed; among whom also was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman by name Damaris, and others with them.
34 Amma boro fooyaŋ lamb'a gaa ka cimandi. I ra no Diyonisiyos go, Arobasa marga boro fo no, da wayboro fo kaŋ maa Damaris, da boro fooyaŋ koyne i banda.
