Acts 17 (PBBM) · Opened

1Paulus dohot si Silas mangalalui dalam sian Ampipolis dohot Apolonia. Sampe ma halaki di Tesalonia, adong ma di si sada bagas ni halak Jahudi.When they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.

2Songon na biaso Paulus masuk tu bagas ni ibadat i, tolu ari sabat marturut-turut ia patorangkon tu alahi bagian-bagian ni Kitab Suci.As was his custom, Paul went into the synagogue, and on three Sabbaths he reasoned with them from the Scriptures,

3Ia manorangkon tu halaki jana patidahon, harana Mesias ingkon markancit jana bangkit sian halak na mate. Dung i ia mandokkon “on ma Mesias ima Yesus, na hubaritahon tu ho.”explaining and proving that the Christ had to suffer and rise from the dead. “This Jesus I am proclaiming to you is the Christ,” he declared.

4Halak na lain manjadi yakin jadi manggabungkon diri dohot Paulus dung i si Silas dohot sabagian halak Yunani na mabiar tu Allah dohot inda saotik adaboru-adaboru na tarpili.Some of the Jews were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, along with a large number of God-fearing Greeks and quite a few leading women.

5Alai halak Jahudi manjodi iri dohot di bantu akka penjahat sian antara ni petualang-petualang na adong di pasar. Halak i mambean kaributan jana mangaributi dohot mambaen sursar kota i. Halak i mangkopung bagas ni si Yason, marmaksut mangadopkon Paulus dohot si Silas tu pengadilan ratyat.The Jews, however, became jealous. So they brought in some troublemakers from the marketplace, formed a mob, and sent the city into an uproar. They raided Jason’s house in search of Paul and Silas, hoping to bring them out to the people.

6Alai halak i inda mandapot Paulus dohot si Silas di bagas i, jadi halaki manyeret Yason dohot saudaro nia tu adopan ni na markuaso di kota i, dungi marsurak di dok halaki ma: “sude halak na mangacaukon dunia madang ro tu son.But when they could not find them, they dragged Jason and some other brothers before the city officials, shouting, “These men who have turned the world upside down have now come here,

7Yason manarimo halak i manumpang di bagas nia, halak i sude mangalo ketetapan na sian kaisar, jana mandokkon. Adong sada raja na lain, ima Yesus”and Jason has welcomed them into his home. They are all defying Caesar’s decrees, saying that there is another king, named Jesus!”

8di waktu halak no bahat dohot sude na markuaso di si mambege sudenai, jana mambaen halak i marsak.On hearing this, the crowd and city officials were greatly disturbed.

9Alai dung mandapot jaminan siansi Yason dohot siang saudaro nia na asing halak i pe di palua.And they collected bond from Jason and the others and then released them.

10Tai, borngin i juo do saudaro-saudaro nia i manyuru Paulus dohot si Silas barangkat tu Berea dung lalu halak i di si kehe ma halak i tu bagas ni ibadat ni halak Jahudi.As soon as night had fallen, the brothers sent Paul and Silas away to Berea. On arriving there, they went into the Jewish synagogue.

11Halak Jahudi na adong di si, umburju sian halak Jahudi na adong di Tesalonika. Harana halak i manarimo hata ni Tuhan dohot ate-ate na iar satiop ari halak i manyalidiki kitab suci anso mur di boto halak i habonaranna.Now the Bereans were more noble-minded than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if these teachings were true.

12Bahat do halak i manjadi purcaya, inda saotik di antaro ni adaboru ni pembesar dohot halak lai sian Yunani.As a result, many of them believed, along with quite a few prominent Greek women and men.

13Alai dung di boto halak Jahudi sian Tesalonika mamboto di Berea pe madung di baritahon Firman Allah, ro muse ma halak i tusi marmaksut jiot mambaen arsak.But when the Jews from Thessalonica learned that Paul was also proclaiming the word of God in Berea, they went there themselves to incite and agitate the crowds.

14Alai saudaro ni si Paulus mayuru hatop barangkat tu pantai nadi topi laut, alai si Silas dohot si Timotius totop do tinggal di Berea.The brothers immediately sent Paul to the coast, but Silas and Timothy remained in Berea.

15Halak i sude mandongani si Paulus sahat tu Atena. Dung i malak mangoban posan tu si Silas dohot si Timotius. Anso sacopatna ia ro pasuo dohot halak i.Those who escorted Paul brought him to Athens and then returned with instructions for Silas and Timothy to join him as soon as possible.

16Paulus madung paintehon halak i di Atena, ibo roha ni halaki mangaligi, harana gok di bagasan ni kota i patung-patung berhala.While Paul was waiting for them in Athens, he was deeply disturbed in his spirit to see that the city was full of idols.

17Aran ni i dibagas ni ibadat ia martukar pikiran dohot sude halak Jahudi. Dohot halak na mabiar tu Allah, dohot di pasar satiop ari tu sude halak na pasuo di si.So he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and God-fearing Gentiles, and in the marketplace with those he met each day.

18Di antara pamikir sian golongan Epikorus dohot stoa marsoal dohot ia. Jadi adong na mandokkon: “aha do nadi dokkon ni halak na bek-bek on?” Alai adong mandokkon ia pangajar ni dewa-dewa na asing.” Arana ia mambaritahon Injil satontang ni Yesus dohot habangkiton Nia.Some Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also began to debate with him. Some of them asked, “What is this babbler trying to say?” Others said, “He seems to be advocating foreign gods.” They said this because Paul was proclaiming the good news of Jesus and the resurrection.

19Jadi halak i mangoban i manghadop sidang Aeropagus dohot mandokkon: “bisa do ami mamboto sanga aha do ajaran na di ajarkon mu i?So they took Paul and brought him to the Areopagus, where they asked him, “May we know what this new teaching is that you are presenting?

20Arana ho mambaritahon tu hami purkaro-purkaro na aneh. Arani i ami giot mamboto, aha do arti ni i sude na.”For you are bringing some strange notions to our ears, and we want to know what they mean.”

21Harana halak Atena dohot sude na halak na asing na adong di si inda adong waktuna. Salain mambahas dohot mambege purkaro na baru.Now all the Athenians and foreigners who lived there spent their time doing nothing more than hearing and articulating new ideas.

22Kehe ma si Paulus jong-jong di ginjang ni Aeropagus i jana mandok: “He halak Atena, Hu ligi di sude hal hamu ta patuh tu akka dewa-dewa.Then Paul stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said, “Men of Athens, I see that in every way you are very religious.

23Harana di waktu au mardalani di kota ni hamu on dohot mangaligi barang-barang na di puji ho. Pasuo ma au dohot Mezbah na martuliskon: tu Allah naso di tanda. Ahu do na di somba ho. Anggo indo mananda ia ima na hubaritahon tu ho.For as I walked around and examined your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore what you worship as something unknown, I now proclaim to you.

24Allah na madung manjadihon dunia dohot sagalo pangisina, Ia ima Tuhan do ginjang ni langit dohot tano, naso matempat tinggal di bagasan kuil-kuil nadi baen ni tangan ni manusia,The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples made by human hands.

25dung i ia inda di layani ni tangan manusia, tarsongon inda adong na hurang nia sanga na aha pe. Arana Ia na mangalehen ngolu dohot osa dohot sube haporluan ni sude halak.Nor is He served by human hands, as if He needed anything, because He Himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else.

26Sian sada halak do ia manjadihon bangsa dohot umat manusia anso halaki tinggal di sude dunia, Ia mandang manontuhon musim di halaki dohot batas-batas ni tempat tinggal ni halaki.From one man He made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their lands.

27Anso halaki manjalaki Ia, dohot bisa mangarasoon dohot mandapotkon Ia, bope Ia inda na dao sian ita.God intended that they would seek Him and perhaps reach out for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us.

28Arana di bagasa Nia hita mangolu, hita mangorak, hita adong, tarsongon na madung di dokon parende mu: Harana ita sian katurunan ni Allah jugo do.‘For in Him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are His offspring.’

29Arani hita marasal sian katurunan ni Allah, hita inda bisa marpikir, bahwasona keadaan ni Ilahi sarupo songon sere, perak sanga pe batu, ciptaan kesenian dohot ke ahlian ni manusia,Therefore, being offspring of God, we should not think that the Divine Being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by man’s skill and imagination.

30dohot ulang ma mangalingin muse zaman ni ha otoan, jadi sannari Allah mambaritahon tu sude manusia, arana di dia pe sude halak ingkon martubat.Although God overlooked the ignorance of earlier times, He now commands all people everywhere to repent.

31Arana Ia madung manontuhon sada ari, di sada waktu ia ingkon mangadili dunia dohot sada halak na madung di tontuon Nia, dung salese Ia mangalehen tu sude halak sada bukti tontang i, ima pabangkitkon ia sian antara ni halak na mate”.For He has set a day when He will judge the world with justice by the Man He has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising Him from the dead.”

32Dung i bege halaki satontang habangkitan ni halak na mate, jadi adong ma an palayaskon, dohot na lain mandokkon: “sanga na andigan ma am i mambege ho mangecet tontang i.”When they heard about the resurrection of the dead, some began to mock him, but others said, “We want to hear you again on this topic.”

33Jadi Paulus kehe maninggalkon halahi.At that, Paul left the Areopagus.

34Tai sebagian sian alaklai manggabungkon diri na dohot ia manjadi persayo, adong ma na margoar Dionisius, anggota manjelis Areopagus, dohot sada halak na margoar Damaris, dohot sude halak na dohot rap halak i.But some joined him and believed, including Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman named Damaris, and others who were with them.
