¹ Bi loolu wéyee Pool bàyyikoo Aten, dem Korent.

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

² Mu tase fa ak Yawut bu tudd Akilas te juddoo diiwaanu Pont. Muy sog a jóge réewu Itali ak jabaram Pirsil, ndaxte buur ba Këlódd sant na Yawut yépp, ñu génn Room.

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,

³ Noonu Pool seeti leen, te gannaaw ñoo bokk liggéey, maanaam di defar ay tànt, mu dal fa ñoom, ñuy liggéeyandoo.

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

⁴ Bésu noflaay bu nekk nag muy diisoo ak ñi nekk ca jàngu ba, di jéem a gëmloo ay Yawut ak ay Gereg.

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

⁵ Waaye bi Silas ak Timote jógee diiwaanu Maseduwan, egg fa, Pool jublu ci xamle kàddu gi, tey dëggal ci Yawut yi naan, Yeesu mooy Almasi bi.

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

⁶ Bi ko Yawut ya gàntoo nag, di ko xas, mu yëlëb ay yéreem ne leen: «Yéena sàkku seen musiba; set naa ci. Léegi maa ngi dem ci ñi dul Yawut.»

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.`

⁷ Ci kaw loolu mu jóge fa, dugg ci këru ku tudd Tisiyus Yustus, di ku ragal Yàlla, te kër ga dend ak jàngu ba.

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,

⁸ Kirispus nag, njiitu jàngu ba, gëm na Boroom bi ak waa këram gépp. Te waa Korent ñu bare dégg kàddu gi te gëm ko, ñu sóob leen ci ndox.

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.

⁹ Naka noona Boroom bi feeñu Pool ci guddi ne ko: «Bul tiit dara, waaye deel wax te bañ a noppi.

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

¹⁰ Ndaxte maa ngi ànd ak yaw, te kenn du la jàpp, ba fitnaal la, ndaxte am naa xeet wu bare ci dëkk bii.»

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

¹¹ Noonu Pool des at ak genn-wàll ci seen biir, di fa jàngale kàddug Yàlla.

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

¹² Ci nguuru Galyon ci diiwaanu Akayi nag, Yawut ya likkoo, ñu dal ci kaw Pool, yóbbu ko ca àttekaay ba.

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

¹³ Ñu ne: «Kii day xiir nit ñi ci màggal Yàlla ci lu juuyoo ak yoon wi.»

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

¹⁴ Bi Pool bëggee wax nag, Galyon ne Yawut ya: «Yéen Yawut yi, bu aju woon ci jàdd yoon walla ñaawteef wu réy, kon liy yoon mooy ma déglu leen.

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,

¹⁵ Waaye bu ajoo ci ay werante ciy wax ak ay tur ak seen yoon, loolu seen wàll la; man duma ko àtte.»

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,`

¹⁶ Noonu mu dàq leen ca àttekaay ba.

¹⁶and he drave them from the tribunal;

¹⁷ Ci kaw loolu nit ñépp jàpp Sosten, njiitu jàngu ba, ñu di ko dóor ca kanamu àttekaay ba, waaye Galyon faalewu leen.

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 Bi loolu wéyee Pool desati fa fan yu bare. Gannaaw ga mu tàggtoo ak bokk ya, dugg gaal jëm Siri, ànd ak Pirsil ak Akilas. Bi mu jógeegul teerub Señsere, mu watlu boppam, ndaxte am na lu mu dige woon ak Yàlla.

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;

¹⁹ Noonu ñu teer ci Efes. Pool bàyyi fa ñi mu àndaloon, daldi dugg ca jàngu ba, di diisoo ak Yawut ya.

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

²⁰ Ñu ñaan ko, mu des fa lu gën a yàgg, waaye nanguwul.

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

²¹ Kon mu tàggtoo ak ñoom naan: «Dinaa dellusi ci yéen, bu soobee Yàlla.» Noonu mu dugg gaal, jóge Efes,

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,

²² teersi dëkku Sesare, mu dem nuyu mbooloom ñi gëm, ba noppi dem Ancos.

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

²³ Bi mu fa desee ay jamono, mu jóge fa, di jaar dëkkoo-dëkk ci diiwaanu Galasi ak Firisi, di dooleel xoli taalibe yépp.

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

²⁴ Amoon na nag Yawut bu tudd Apolos te juddoo Alegsàndiri, mu dikk Efes. Nit ku yeewu la woon te am xam-xam bu yaatu ci Mbind mi.

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

²⁵ Jàngoon na ci yoonu Boroom bi, di ku farlu ci xelam, muy xamle ak a jàngale bu wóor ci mbirum Yeesu, waaye fekk xam-xamam yem ci ni Yaxya daan sóobe ci ndox.

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;

²⁶ Noonu mu daldi wax ak fit wu dëgër ca jàngu ba. Bi ko Pirsil ak Akilas déggee nag, ñu woo ko fi ñoom, gën ko leeral yoonu Yàlla.

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,

²⁷ Naka mu bëgg a dem Akayi, bokk ya xiir ko ca, ñu bind taalibe ya, ngir ñu teeru ko teeru bu rafet. Noonu mu dikk fa te jariñ lool ñi gëm jaare ko ci yiwu Yàlla.

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,

²⁸ Ndaxte mu ngay yey Yawut ya ca kanam ñépp, di firi Mbind yi, ba wone ne Yeesu mooy Almasi bi.

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