¹After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth.

¹Bulus iṛuḥ si temdint n Atinya ɣer temdint n Kurintus.

²He found a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by race, who had recently come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome. He came to them,

²Yufa dinna yiwen wergaz n wat Isṛail, isem-is Akilas, laṣel-is n tmurt n Tqenṭert ; yewweḍ-ed deg ussan-nni kan si tmurt n Selyan nețța ț-țmeṭṭut-is Brisila, axaṭer Qayṣer Kludyus yumeṛ i wat Isṛail meṛṛa ad ffɣen si temdint n Ṛuma.

³and because he practiced the same trade, he lived with them and worked, for by trade they were tent makers.

³Imi Brisila d Akilas xeddmen iqiḍunen am Bulus, yeqqim ɣuṛ-sen xeddmen s tdukli.

⁴He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks.

⁴Mkul ass n westeɛfu, Bulus ițmeslay di lǧameɛ, ițbecciṛ i wat Isṛail akk-d iyunaniyen ttabaɛen ddin n wat Isṛail, iwakken ad amnen.

⁵But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.

⁵Mi d-usan Silas d Timuti si tmurt n Masidunya, Bulus yuɣal ițțelhay kan d ubecceṛ n wawal n Ṛebbi, ițbeggin ed i wat Isṛail belli d Ɛisa i d Lmasiḥ.

⁶When they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook out his clothing and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am clean. From now on, I will go to the Gentiles!”

⁶Imi i t-xulfen yerna regmen-t, Bulus yezwi icuḍaḍ-is, yenna-yasen : Cfut ur teqbilem ara leslak-agi, ddnub i yirawen-nwen ! Nekk ayen i yi-d-yewwi lḥal xedmeɣ-t. Ihi sya d asawen, ad ṛuḥeɣ ɣer wat leǧnas ur nelli ara seg warraw n wat Isṛail.

⁷He departed there, and went into the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.

⁷Mi d-iffeɣ syenna, ikcem ɣer wexxam n Tit Justus, i gellan d amdan iḍuɛen Sidi Ṛebbi ; axxam-is yezga-d tama n lǧameɛ n wat Isṛail.

⁸Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house. Many of the Corinthians, when they heard, believed and were baptized.

⁸Krisbus, ameqqran n lǧameɛ yumen s Ɛisa Lmasiḥ nețța d wat wexxam-is meṛṛa ; aṭas n wat kurintus daɣen i gumnen mi slan s wayen i d-yenna Bulus, dɣa țwaɣeḍsen deg waman.

⁹The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, “Don’t be afraid, but speak and don’t be silent;

⁹Yiwen n yiḍ, Sidi Ṛebbi iweḥḥa yas-ed di targit i Bulus yenna-yas-d : Ur țțaggad ara, kemmel ehdeṛ ur țsusum ara !

¹⁰ for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city.”

¹⁰Axaṭer aqli-n yid-ek ! Yiwen ur izmir ad issers afus-is fell-ak iwakken a k-yexdem cceṛ, axaṭer aṭas i gellan d ayla-w di temdint-agi.

¹¹He lived there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

¹¹Bulus yeqqim aseggas d sețța wagguren ger wat kurintus, isselmad asen awal n Sidi Ṛebbi.

¹²But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,

¹²Di lweqt-nni i deg yella Galyun d lḥakem ɣef tmurt n Lakaya, at Isṛail msefhamen, ddukklen ɣef Bulus, wwin-t ɣer wexxam n ccṛeɛ, nnan :

¹³saying, “This man persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”

¹³Argaz-agi issamaṛ lɣaci ad ɛebden Ṛebbi s webrid ixulfen ccariɛa.

¹⁴But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, “If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked crime, you Jews, it would be reasonable that I should bear with you;

¹⁴Mi gekker Bulus ad ihdeṛ, inṭeq Galyun yenna i wat Isṛail : Lemmer d lbaṭel neɣ d ayen n diri i gexdem, zemreɣ a wen ḥesseɣ am akken yella di lqanun ay at Isṛail ;

¹⁵but if they are questions about words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves. For I don’t want to be a judge of these matters.”

¹⁵meɛna imi d amjadel ɣef yimeslayen, ɣef yismawen akk-d ccariɛa n Musa, ayagi d ccɣel-nwen ! Ur bɣiɣ ara ad ḥekmeɣ ɣef wannect-a.

¹⁶He drove them from the judgment seat.

¹⁶Imiren issufeɣ-iten-id syenna.

¹⁷Then all the Greeks laid hold on Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. Gallio didn’t care about any of these things.

¹⁷Dɣa lɣaci mmɣen ɣef Sustin, ameqqran n lǧameɛ n wat Isṛail, ewten-t zdat wexxam n ccṛeɛ , Galyun ur s-tewqiɛ ara lmeɛna.

¹⁸Paul, having stayed after this many more days, took his leave of the brothers, The word for “brothers” here and where the context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” and sailed from there for Syria, together with Priscilla and Aquila. He shaved his head in Cenchreae, for he had a vow.

¹⁸Bulus yerna aṭas n wussan di temdint n Kurintus ; syenna yeǧǧa atmaten di lehna, yerkeb lbabuṛ ɣer tmurt n Surya ; Brisila d Akilas ddan yid-es. Uqbel ad iṛuḥ si lmeṛṣa n temdint n Senkriya, iseṭṭel aqeṛṛuy-is axaṭer yefka lemɛahda i Sidi Ṛebbi.

¹⁹He came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.

¹⁹Mi wwḍen ɣer temdint n Ifasus, mfaṛaqen : Bulus yeǧǧa iṛfiqen-is Akilas d Brisila, ma d nețța ikcem ɣer lǧameɛ n wat Isṛail, ițmeslay yid-sen.

²⁰When they asked him to stay with them a longer time, he declined;

²⁰Ḥellelen-t ad yernu kra wussan yid-sen, lameɛna ur yeqbil ara.

²¹but taking his leave of them, and saying, “I must by all means keep this coming feast in Jerusalem, but I will return again to you if God wills,” he set sail from Ephesus.

²¹Yenna-yasen : A d-uɣaleɣ ɣuṛ-wen ma yebɣa Ṛebbi.

²²When he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the assembly, and went down to Antioch.

²²Yerkeb di lbabuṛ si temdint n Ifasus ɣer temdint n Qiṣarya ; syenna iṛuḥ a d-iẓer tajmaɛt n watmaten yellan di temdint n Lquds ; imiren iṣubb ɣer temdint n Antyuc.

²³Having spent some time there, he departed, and went through the region of Galatia, and Phrygia, in order, establishing all the disciples.

²³Mi gesɛedda kra n wussan di temdint n Antyuc, yuɣal yeṭṭef abrid ɣer tmura n Galasya d Frijya, di mkul amkan yesseǧhad inelmaden di Liman.

²⁴Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by race, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus. He was mighty in the Scriptures.

²⁴Di lweqt-nni, yiwen wergaz n wat Isṛail yețțusemman Abulus, ilulen di temdint n Skandriya yellan di tmurt n Maṣeṛ, yusa-d ɣer temdint n Ifasus ; yezweṛ deg wawal yerna yessen mliḥ tira iqedsen.

²⁵This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, although he knew only the baptism of John.

²⁵Argaz-agi yelmed abrid n Sidi Ṛebbi, iǧhed di liman, ițbecciṛ, yesselmad s teḥqiq ayen i d-qqaṛent tira iqedsen ɣef Ɛisa Lmasiḥ , ɣas akken d aɣḍas n Yeḥya kan i gessen.

²⁶He began to speak boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside, and explained to him the way of God more accurately.

²⁶Yebda ițmeslay ɛinani di lǧameɛ n wat Isṛail. Akilas d Brisila mi s-slan wwin-t yid-sen, sfehmen-as tideț n webrid n Sidi Ṛebbi akken tella.

²⁷When he had determined to pass over into Achaia, the brothers encouraged him, and wrote to the disciples to receive him. When he had come, he greatly helped those who had believed through grace;

²⁷Imi i gebɣa Abulus ad iɛeddi ɣer tmurt n Akaya, atmaten kksen-as akukru, uran tabṛaț i inelmaden n temdint n Kurintus iwakken ad stṛeḥben yis. Mi gewweḍ ɣer dinna, s ṛṛeḥma n Sidi Ṛebbi iɛawen aṭas widak yumnen ;

²⁸for he powerfully refuted the Jews, publicly showing by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.

²⁸axaṭer yețṛuẓu ɛinani awal n lecyux n wat Isṛail zdat lɣaci meṛṛa ; yerna ițbeggin-ed s tira iqedsen belli d Ɛisa i d Lmasiḥ.
