¹Karata-na Paulus hi porumpua toe, nanaa hawe'ea topohura toera, na'uli' -raka: "Ompi' -ompi' -ku! Moroli' mpontolumanu' nono-ku! Duu' hi eo tohe'i, kupenonoi uma ria sala' -ku hi poncilo Alata'ala."

¹And Paul, fixing his eyes on the council, said, Brethren, I have walked in all good conscience with God unto this day.

²Nto'u-na Paulus mololita hewa toe, Imam Bohe Ananias mpohubui tauna to hi ncori Paulus mpohopo' -i.

²But the high priest Ananias ordered those standing by him to smite his mouth.

³Hampetompoi' Paulus: "Harala nahopo' Alata'ala wo'o-ko-kowo mpai', iko to lompe' hi mali-na-wadi-ko! Mohura-ko retu mai, doko' mpobotuhi kara-kara-ku ntuku' Atura Musa, bo iko moto ntiboki Atura Musa toe, apa' nupehubui rahopo' -a."

³Then Paul said to him, God will smite thee, whited wall. And *thou*, dost thou sit judging me according to the law, and breaking the law commandest me to be smitten?

⁴Ngkai ree, tauna to ncori Paulus mpo'uli' -ki: "Daho' rahi-ko-kona mpolibui' Imam Bohe to napelihi Alata'ala hewa tetu!"

⁴And those that stood by said, Dost thou rail against the high priest of God?

⁵Na'uli' Paulus: "Uma-kuwo ku'incai kahi'a-na Imam Bohe-e. Hiaa' ria mpu'u-di to te'uki' hi rala Buku Tomoroli' to mpo'uli': `Neo' ralibui' hapa' pangkeni ngata-ta.'"

⁵And Paul said, I was not conscious, brethren, that he was high priest; for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evilly of the ruler of thy people.

⁶Na'inca-hawo Paulus, topohura toera, ria-ra to mpotuku' tudui' to Saduki, ria wo'o-ra to mpotuku' tudui' to Parisi. Toe pai' napesukui mpololitai-ra omea, na'uli': "Ompi' -ompi'! Aku' toi-le to Parisi-a, pai' muli to Parisi wo'o-a. Pai' -a tumai rapohurai tohe'i-e, apa' kuparasaya-kuna, tauna to mate bate tuwu' nculii'."

⁶But Paul, knowing that the one part [of them] were of the Sadducees and the other of the Pharisees, cried out in the council, Brethren, *I* am a Pharisee, son of Pharisees: *I* am judged concerning the hope and resurrection of [the] dead.

⁷Kara'epe-na toe, momehono' -ramo to Parisi pai' to Saduki, alaa-na uma-rapa hintuwu'.

⁷And when he had spoken this, there was a tumult of the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the multitude was divided.

⁸Apa' ntuku' to Saduki, tauna to mate uma tuwu' nculii', pai' uma ria kao' manusia' to tuwu' liu-liu, pai' uma ria mala'eka. Tapi' to Parisi-rana, raparasaya hawe'ea toe.

⁸For Sadducees say there is no resurrection, nor angel, nor spirit; but Pharisees confess both of them.

⁹Ka'omea-na, moe' -mi pomehono' -ra. Ria ba hangkuja dua guru agama to tono' hi to Parisi mokore pai' mehono', ra'uli': "Uma ria sala' -na tau tohe'ii. Meka' ba lue' ria mpu'u-di mala'eka ba rate mpololitai-i."

⁹And there was a great clamour, and the scribes of the Pharisees' part rising up contended, saying, We find nothing evil in this man; and if a spirit has spoken to him, or an angel ...

¹⁰Ngkai ree, kaboo-bohea lau-mi pomehono' -ra, alaa-na koro' -imi kapala' tantara, nee-neo' mpai' Paulus rapomerentai lau-imi. Nahubui-mi tantara-na hilou mpo'ala' Paulus, pai' -i rakeni nculii' hilou hi tomi tantara.

¹⁰And a great tumult having arisen, the chiliarch, fearing lest Paul should have been torn in pieces by them, commanded the troop to come down and take him by force from the midst of them, and to bring [him] into the fortress.

¹¹Bengi karomengia-na Paulus hi tomi tantara toe, muu-mule' mokore-imi Pue' Yesus hi ncori-na, na'uli' -ki: "Pakaroho nono-nu. Oti-mi nuposabi' -ka hi Yerusalem rei, pai' bate nuposabi' wo'o-ka mpai' hi ngata Roma."

¹¹But the following night the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good courage; for as thou hast testified the things concerning me at Jerusalem, so thou must bear witness at Rome also.

¹²Kamepulo-na, ba hangkuja dua to Yahudi mohawa' mpopatehi Paulus. Mosumpa-ra, ra'uli': "Uma-kai ulu ngkoni' ba nginu ane da koo-ko'ia kipatehi-i!"

¹²And when it was day, the Jews, having banded together, put themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they should kill Paul.

¹³Kadea-ra to mosumpa toera, labi opo' mpulu'.

¹³And they were more than forty who had joined together in this oath;

¹⁴Jadi', hilou-ramo to mosumpa toera hi imam pangkeni pai' pangkeni to Yahudi ntani' -na, ra'uli': "Mojanci mpu'u-kai hante mosumpa, uma-kai ulu ngkoni' napa-napa ane ko'ia kipatehi-i Paulus.

¹⁴and they went to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have cursed ourselves with a curse to taste nothing until we kill Paul.

¹⁵Wae-pi, kiperapi' hi tuama-tuama hante topohura agama bona nipakatu sura hilou hi kapala' tantara to Roma, mperapi' bona Paulus rakeni nculii' mponyanyo-koi, ntani' raparesa' tena kara-kara-na. Ntaa' kilede-idi pai' kipatehi hi lengko ohea-e!"

¹⁵Now therefore do ye with the council make a representation to the chiliarch so that he may bring him down to you, as about to determine more precisely what concerns him, and we, before he draws near, are ready to kill him.

¹⁶Jadi', hawa' -ra toe na'epe pino'ana' -na Paulus. Kahilou-nami hi tomi tantara mparata patuju-ra toe hi Paulus.

¹⁶But Paul's sister's son, having heard of the lying in wait, came and entered into the fortress and reported [it] to Paul.

¹⁷Ngkai ree, Paulus mpokio' hadua tadulako pai' na'uli' -ki: "Po'ema' ana' toii hilou hi kapala'. Ria anu naparata."

¹⁷And Paul, having called one of the centurions, said, Take this youth to the chiliarch, for he has something to report to him.

¹⁸Napo'ema' mpu'u-imi hilou hi kapala' pai' na'uli': "Paulus, to ratarungku' toei ria, merapi' bona kukeni-i ana' toii tumai hi Kapala'. Ria anu naparata-koko."

¹⁸He therefore, having taken him with [him], led him to the chiliarch, and says, The prisoner Paul called me to [him] and asked me to lead this youth to thee, who has something to say to thee.

¹⁹Jadi', kapala' tantara toei mpokamu pale-na ana' toei, pai' natete' -i hilou bona hira' rodua-wadi, pai' napekune' -i: "Napa to doko' nu'uli' -ka, uto'?"

¹⁹And the chiliarch having taken him by the hand, and having gone apart in private, inquired, What is it that thou hast to report to me?

²⁰Na'uli' ana' toei: "Ria-ra to Yahudi to mohawa', merapi' hi Kapala' bona mepulo mpai' uma' -ku rakeni hi poromua topohura, ntani' ra'uli' raparesa' tena kara-kara-na.

²⁰And he said, The Jews have agreed together to make a request to thee, that thou mayest bring Paul down to-morrow into the council, as about to inquire something more precise concerning him.

²¹Neo' ratuku' pomperapia' -ra! Apa' ria-ra labi opo' mpulu' to mengkawuni hi ohea doko' mpo'inawu-i. Mojanci-ra hante mosumpa bona uma-ra ulu ngkoni' ba nginu ane da koo-ko'ia-i rapatehi. Toe lou, rodo-ramo mpopea woli' lolita ngkai Kapala' -damo."

²¹Do not thou then be persuaded by them, for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, who have put themselves under a curse neither to eat nor drink till they kill him; and now they are ready waiting the promise from thee.

²²Na'uli' kapala' tantara toei: "Neo' nu'uli' hi hema-hema kanulohu-namaka patuju-ra tetu-e." Oti toe, pai' nahubui-imi nculii'.

²²The chiliarch then dismissed the youth, commanding [him], Utter to no one that thou hast represented these things to me.

²⁴Oti toe, kapala' tantara toei mpokio' rodua tadulako-na, pai' na'uli' -raka: "Porodo ro'atu tantara biasa, pai' pitu mpulu' tantara to mojara', pai' ro'atu wo'o tantara to moponcii'. Porodo wo'o jara' to nahawi' Paulus. Jaa sio bengi toe mpai' lau, me'ongko' -mokoi hilou hi Kaisarea, keni-i Paulus hilou hi Gubernur Feliks. Pai' jaga lompe' -i bona uma-i moapa hi ohea."

²³And having called to [him] certain two of the centurions, he said, Prepare two hundred soldiers that they may go as far as Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred light-armed footmen, for the third hour of the night.

²⁵Oti toe, kapala' tantara mpo'uki' sura hilou hi gubernur, moni-na hewa toi:

²⁴And [he ordered them] to provide beasts, that they might set Paul on them and carry [him] safe through to Felix the governor,

²⁶"Hi Gubernur Feliks to rabila'. Wori' tabe ngkai aku', Klaudius Lisias!

²⁵having written a letter, couched in this form:

²⁷Dohe sura toi, kupakatu hi Tuama hadua tauna to rahanga' Paulus. Paulus toii, rahoko' -i to Yahudi wengi, pai' neo' rapatehi lia-imi. Tapi' ku'epe Katoroma-nai. Toe pai' hilou-ama hante tantara-ku mpe'agoi-i ngkai laintongo' -ra.

²⁶Claudius Lysias to the most excellent governor Felix, greeting.

²⁸Apa' doko' ku'inca napa to rapakilu-ki, toe pai' kukeni-i hilou hi topohura to Yahudi bona raparesa'.

²⁷This man, having been taken by the Jews, and being about to be killed by them, I came up with the military and took out [of their hands], having learned that he was a Roman.

²⁹Raparesa' -i toe, uma-hawo ria sala' -na to masipato' rapatehi ba ratarungku' -ki. Pangadua' -ra toe, ngkai ada agama-ra moto-wadi.

²⁸And desiring to know the charge on which they accused him, I brought him down to their council;

³⁰Oti toe, ku'epe karia-na patuju dada'a to Yahudi hi hi'a. Toe pai' kupopekeni-i tilou hi Tuama Gubernur. Pai' ku'uli' -raka bali' -na hi rei, kana tilou-ra hi Gubernur ane doko' rapakilu-i. Hudu rei."

²⁹whom I found to be accused of questions of their law, but to have no charge laid against him [making him] worthy of death or of bonds.

³¹Ngkai ree, ka'oti-na na'uki' sura toe, nahubui tantara-na mpokeni-i Paulus hilou hi Gubernur. Hi bengi toe rakeni-i hilou hi ngata Antipatris.

³⁰But having received information of a plot about to be put in execution against the man [by the Jews], I have immediately sent him to thee, commanding also his accusers to say before thee the things that are against him. [Farewell.]

³²Kamepulo-na tantara to mako' witi' nculii' hilou hi tomi tantara. Tantara to mojara' -damo mpokeni Paulus kaliliu hilou hi Kaisarea.

³¹The soldiers therefore, according to what was ordered them, took Paul and brought him by night to Antipatris,

³³Karata-ra hi Kaisarea, ratonu-miki Gubernur sura to ngkai kapala' -ra, pai' Paulus wo'o ratonu hi kuasa Gubernur.

³²and on the morrow, having left the horsemen to go with him, returned to the fortress.

³⁴Ka'oti-na Gubernur mpobasa sura toe, napekune' -i Paulus: "Hiapa ngata kaputua-nu?" Natompoi' Paulus: "Hi tana' Kilikia." Kana'inca-na Gubernur toe,

³³And these, having entered into Caesarea, and given up the letter to the governor, presented Paul also to him.

³⁵na'uli' -mi: "Wae. Kuparesa' moto kara-kara-nu ane rata-ra-damo mpai' bali' -nu." Oti toe, nahubui tantara-na mpojaga Paulus hi rala tomi bohe to nawangu Magau' Herodes owi.

³⁴And having read [it], and asked of what eparchy he was, and learned that [he was] of Cilicia,

³⁵he said, I will hear thee fully when thine accusers also are arrived. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod's praetorium.
