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

¹Pala kodia o Pavlo gelotar andai Athens, ai gelo ande Corinth.

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,

²Kotse arakhlia ieke Zhidovos kai busholas Aquila, wo kerdilo sas ando them kai bushol Pontius, antunchi areslo sas andai Aitalia peska zhuvliasa, woi busholas Priscilla; ke o amperato o Claudius diasas ordina ka sa le Zhiduvuria te zhantar andai Rome, ai o Pavlo gelo lende.

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

³Ai sar kerenas iek fial buchi, beshlo lende, ai kerdia buchi, tseri kerelas lensa.

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

⁴O Pavlo divinilas ande synagogue swako Savato, ai anelas ka Del le Zhidovon ai le Grekon.

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

⁵Ai kana o Silas ai o Timote avile kotse andai Macedonia, o Pavlo thodia peske vriama te mothol E Vorba le Devleski le Zhidovonge, ai phenelas lenge ke O Jesus si O Kristo.

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!”

⁶Numa le Zhiduvuria chi lenaspe pala leste, ai marenas mui lestar, o Pavlo chinosardia peske tsalia, ai phendia lenge, "Tumaro rat si te perel pe tumare shero" me vorta si, numa akana zhav karing le Nai Zhiduvuria.

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.

⁷Kana gelotar kotsar, avilo ka ek manush kai busholas Justus, kado manush pachalaspe ando Del, ai lesko kher sas pashai khangeri.

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.

⁸Numa o Crispus, o baro rashai la khangeriako pachaiape ando Del, wo ai sa peski familia, ai but andal Corinthiana kai ashundesas, dinepe ka Del, ai boldepe.

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

⁹O Del mothol le Pavloske andek vizion ande riat, "Na dara, numa des duma, na terdiol.

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

¹⁰Ke me tusa sim, ai khonik chi thola o vas pe tute te kerel tuke o baio ke des duma, ke but narodo sima ande kado foro."

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

¹¹O Pavlo beshlo kotse iek bersh ai shov shon, sicharelas E Vorba le Devleski mashkar lende.

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

¹²Ande vriama kai o Gallio, o baro Romano poronchilas pek them kai busholas Achaia, le Zhidvuria xolaile po Pavlo, ai angerde les anglai kris, mothonas,

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

¹³"Kado manush thol le manushen te lenpe pala Del, numa na sar mangel o zakono.

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;

¹⁴Kana o Pavlo lelas te mothol vari so, o Gallio mothol le Zhidovonge, "Te avilino ke kado manush kerdia vari so kai nai vorta, vai te kerdia ek baio, me ashunav tumaro divano, tume Zhiduvuria.

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.”

¹⁵Numa te xalian tume andek vorba, vai ke pel anava, vai pe tumaro zakono, keren so tume mangen, nai murhe diela, chi mangav te kerav kris pe kadala dieli."

¹⁶He drove them from the judgment seat.

¹⁶Ai phendia lenge te zhantar.

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.

¹⁷Antunchi sa le Grekuria line o Sosthenes, o baro la khangeriako, ai marde les kotse anglai kris, numa o Gallio nas leske diela.

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.

¹⁸O Pavlo mai beshlo but vriama ande Corinth, porme lia pesko dies lasho katar le phral kai sas kotse, porme lia o paraxodo ai gelotar ande Syria, lia pesa e Priscilla ai o Aquilla; numa mai anglal sar te zhaltar rhanglia le bal pa pesko shero ande Cenchrea; ke kadia diasas vorba.

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

¹⁹Areslo ando Ephesus, ai o Pavlo meklia peske vortakon kotse; ai gelo ande synagogue, ai kotse delas duma le Zhidovonsa.

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

²⁰Ai won mangenas lestar te beshel mai but lensa, numa chi manglia,

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.

²¹ai lia pesko dies lasho lendar, ai phendia, "Trobul te zhav ka iek pachiv kai si ando Jerusalem, numa avava palpale tumende, te mangel O Del," ai gelotar andai Ephesus.

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

²²Kana areslo ande Caesarea, gelo ande Jerusalem, ai kotse gelo kai khangeri te dikhel le phralen, porme gelotar ando Antioch. Kana beshlo xantsi vriama ando Antioch, gelotar, ai zhalas karing e Galatia ai e Phrygia, ai kotse delas zor ando anav le Devlesko le disiplon kai sas kotse.

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

²⁴Iek Zhidovo kai busholas Apollos, wo kerdiilosas ande Alexandria, areslo ande Ephesus, kado manush delas duma mishto ai zhanelas mishto E Vorba le Devleski.

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

²⁵Zhanelas o drom le Devlesko, ai dragosa kerelas buchi le Devleski, motholas ai sicharelas vorta so sas O Jesus, so phendia sas chacho, numa zhanelas ferdi pa o bolimos le Iovanosko.

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.

²⁶Thodiape te divinilas andel synagogue, ai kana o Aquilla ai e Priscilla ashunde les, line les pesa, ai sikade leske mai vorta o drom le Devlesko.

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.

²⁷Mangelas te nakhel ande Achaia, le phral phende leske te zhal, ai trade iek lil kotse kal disipluria, kana avela te premin les mishto. Kana areslo kotse, lashi buchi kerelas mashkar kodola kai dinesaspe le Devleske katar o lashimos le Devlesko.

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;

²⁸Ke sikavelas vorta angla narodo kai le Zhiduvuria nas vorta angla Del, sikavela lenge katar E Vorba le Devleski ke O Jesus si O Kristo.

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