¹[Ny nahatongavan'i Paoly tao Korinto, sy ny nampianarany tao herintoana sy enim-bolana] Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia niala tany Atena Paoly ka nankany Korinto.

¹And after these things, Paul having departed out of Athens, came to Corinth,

²Ary izy nahita Jiosy anankiray atao hoe Akoila, izay teraka tany Ponto, vao avy tany Italia, ary Prisila vadiny (fa Klaodio efa nandidy ny Jiosy rehetra hiala tany Roma), dia nankeo amin'izy mivady Paoly.

²and having found a certain Jew, by name Aquilas, of Pontus by birth, lately come from Italy, and Priscilla his wife — because of Claudius having directed all the Jews to depart out of Rome — he came to them,

³Ary satria niray raharaha taminy izy, dia nitoetra tao aminy ka niasa; fa ny manao lay no raharahany.

³and because of being of the same craft, he did remain with them, and was working, for they were tent-makers as to craft;

⁴Ary niady hevitra isan-tSabata tao amin'ny synagoga izy ka nampanaiky ny Jiosy sy ny jentilisa.

⁴and he was reasoning in the synagogue every sabbath, persuading both Jews and Greeks.

⁵Ary rehefa tafidina avy tany Makedonia Silasy sy Timoty, dia voaterin'ny teny Paoly ka nanambara tamin'ny Jiosy fa Jesosy no Kristy.

⁵And when both Silas and Timotheus came down from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the Spirit, testifying fully to the Jews Jesus the Christ;

⁶Ary nony nanohitra sy niteny ratsy ireo, dia nanopakopa-damba izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Aoka ho ao an-dohanareo ny ranareo; afaka aho; ary amin'izao sisa izao dia hankany amin'ny jentilisa aho.

⁶and on their resisting and speaking evil, having shaken [his] garments, he said unto them, `Your blood [is] upon your head — I am clean; henceforth to the nations I will go on.`

⁷Ary raha niala teo izy, dia niditra tao an-tranon'ny lehilahy atao hoe Titosy Josto, izay nivavaka tamin'Andriamanitra; ary ny tranony nifanolotra tamin'ny synagoga.

⁷And having departed thence, he went to the house of a certain one, by name Justus, a worshipper of God, whose house was adjoining the synagogue,

⁸Ary Krispo, mpanapaka ny synagoga, mbamin'ny ankohonany rehetra dia nino ny Tompo; ary maro koa ny Korintiana, raha nandre, dia nino ka natao batisa.

⁸and Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue did believe in the Lord with all his house, and many of the Corinthians hearing were believing, and they were being baptized.

⁹Ary ny Tompo niteny tamin'i Paoly tamin'ny fahitana nony alina ka nanao hoe: Aza matahotra, fa mitenena ihany, ka aza mangina;

⁹And the Lord said through a vision in the night to Paul, `Be not afraid, but be speaking and thou mayest be not silent;

¹⁰fa Izaho momba anao, ary tsy hisy olona hihazona anao hanisy ratsy anao; fa manana olona maro amin'ity tanàna ity Aho.

¹⁰because I am with thee, and no one shall set on thee to do thee evil; because I have much people in this city;`

¹¹Ary izy nitoetra teo herintaona sy enim-bolana ka nampianatra ny tenin'Andriamanitra teo aminy.

¹¹and he continued a year and six months, teaching among them the word of God.

¹²Fa raha Galio no governora tany Akaia dia niray tetika hisambotra an'i Paoly ny Jiosy, ary nitondra azy nankeo amin'ny fitsarana,

¹²And Gallio being proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made a rush with one accord upon Paul, and brought him unto the tribunal,

¹³ka dia nanao hoe: Ilehio mampanaiky ny olona hivavaka amin'Andriamanitra, nefa tsy araka ny lalàna.

¹³saying — `Against the law this one doth persuade men to worship God;`

¹⁴Ary raha hiloa-bava Paoly, dia hoy Galio tamin'ny Jiosy: Ry Jiosy, raha misy heloka, na zavatra ratsy natao, dia mety raha mandefitra aminareo.aho;

¹⁴and Paul being about to open [his] mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, `If, indeed, then, it was anything unrighteous, or an act of wicked profligacy, O Jews, according to reason I had borne with you,

¹⁵fa raha ady hevitra sy anarana ary ny lalànareo kosa, dia ataovinareo ihany; fa izaho tsy te-hitsara izany raharaha izany.

¹⁵but if it is a question concerning words and names, and of your law, look ye yourselves [to it], for a judge of these things I do not wish to be,`

¹⁶Ary nandroaka azy hiala teo anoloan'ny fitsarana izy.

¹⁶and he drave them from the tribunal;

¹⁷Ary izy rehetra nisambotra an'i Sostena, mpanapaka ny synagoga, dia nikapoka azy teo anoloan'ny fitsarana. Nefa tsy nahoan'i Galio izany zavatra izany.

¹⁷and all the Greeks having taken Sosthenes, the chief man of the synagogue, were beating [him] before the tribunal, and not even for these things was Gallio caring.

¹⁸[Ny niverenan'i Paoly nankany Antiokia, sy ny nandehanany indray namaky an'i Galatia sy Frygia, ary ny nahatongavany tao Efesosy sy ny nampianarany tao] Ary Paoly mbola nitoetra teo andro maromaro ihany, ary rehefa nanao veloma ny rahalahy izy, dia niondrana an-tsambo nankany Syria, ary Prisila sy Akoila niaraka taminy koa; ny volon-dohany nohetezany tany Kenkrea, satria efa nivoady izy.

¹⁸And Paul having remained yet a good many days, having taken leave of the brethren, was sailing to Syria — and with him [are] Priscilla and Aquilas — having shorn [his] head in Cenchera, for he had a vow;

¹⁹Ary tonga tany Efesosy izy, dia nandao azy mivady teo Paoly ka lasa niditra tao amin'ny synagoga ka niady hevitra tamin'ny Jiosy.

¹⁹and he came down to Ephesus, and did leave them there, and he himself having entered into the synagogue did reason with the Jews:

²⁰Ary nangataka azy hitoetra elaela kokoa ny olona, fa tsy nety izy,

²⁰and they having requested [him] to remain a longer time with them, he did not consent,

²¹fa nanao veloma azy ka nanao hoe: Mbola hiverina hankatỳ aminareo indray aho, raha sitrapon'Andriamanitra. Dia niondrana an-tsambo niala tany Efesosy izy.

²¹but took leave of them, saying, `It behoveth me by all means the coming feast to keep at Jerusalem, and again I will return unto you — God willing.` And he sailed from Ephesus,

²²Ary rehefa tafatody tany Kaisaria izy, dia niakatra ka niarahaba ny fiangonana vao nidina nankany Antiokia.

²²and having come down to Cesarea, having gone up, and having saluted the assembly, he went down to Antioch.

²³Ary rehefa nitoetra tao elaela ihany izy, dia lasa nandeha nitety ny tany Galatia sy Frygia ka nampahery ny mpianatra rehetra.

²³And having made some stay he went forth, going through in order the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.

²⁴Ary tonga tany Efesosy ny Jiosy anankiray atao hoe Apolosy, izay teraka tany Aleksandria, lehilahy nahay nandaha-teny sady nahery tamin'ny Soratra Masina.

²⁴And a certain Jew, Apollos by name, an Alexandrian by birth, a man of eloquence, being mighty in the Writings, came to Ephesus,

²⁵Izany lehilahy izany efa nampianarina ny lalan'ny Tompo; ary nafana fo izy, dia niteny sy nampianatra marimarina ny amin'i Jesosy, kanefa ny batisan'i Jaona ihany no fantany.

²⁵this one was instructed in the way of the Lord, and being fervent in the Spirit, was speaking and teaching exactly the things about the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John;

²⁶Ary izy niteny tamin'ny fahasahiana teo amin'ny synagoga; ary rehefa nandre azy Prisila sy Akoila, dia nandray azy hankao aminy ka nampianatra azy marimarina kokoa ny amin'ny lalan'Andriamanitra.

²⁶this one also began to speak boldly in the synagogue, and Aquilas and Priscilla having heard of him, took him to [them], and did more exactly expound to him the way of God,

²⁷Ary rehefa ta-handroso hankany Akaia izy, dia namporisika azy ny rahalahy sady nanoratra taratasy ho any amin'ny mpianatra mba handray azy tsara; ary rehefa tonga izy, dia nampahatanjaka tsara izay efa nino noho ny fahasoavana;fa izy nahery nandresy lahatra ny Jiosy teo imason'ny olona ka naneho marimarina tamin'ny Soratra Masina fa Jesosy no Kristy.

²⁷and he being minded to go through into Achaia, the brethren wrote to the disciples, having exhorted them to receive him, who having come, did help them much who have believed through the grace,

²⁸fa izy nahery nandresy lahatra ny Jiosy teo imason'ny olona ka naneho marimarina tamin'ny Soratra Masina fa Jesosy no Kristy.

²⁸for powerfully the Jews he was refuting publicly, shewing through the Writings Jesus to be the Christ.
