Acts 14 (LUO) · Opened

1E Ikonio bende, Paulo gi Barnaba ne jodhi e sinagogi mar jo-Yahudi kaka negijatimo. Kanyo bende ne giyale gi teko, mi jo-Yahudi gi joma ok jo-Yahudi mathoth noyie kuom Yesu.At Iconium, Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish synagogue, where they spoke so well that a great number of Jews and Greeks believed.

2To jo-Yahudi moko ma notamore yie kuom Yesu noketho chuny joma ok jo-Yahudi, kendo negiketo kwiri marach e chunygi, mondo giked gi jowete.But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers.

3Paulo gi Barnaba nobedo kuno kuom ndalo mogwarore, ka giwuoyo gi chir kuom Ruoth Yesu, kendo Nyasaye nodoko janeno kuom wach ngʼwonone, komiyo joote timo honni gi ranyisi.So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who affirmed the message of His grace by enabling them to perform signs and wonders.

4Jo-dalano nopogore nyadiriyo ka moko odok ni jo-Yahudi, to moko nodok ni joote.The people of the city were divided. Some sided with the Jews, and others with the apostles.

5Eka joma ok jo-Yahudi kod jo-Yahudi, kaachiel gi jotendgi nochano lingʼ-lingʼ mondo gisand joote kendo gichielgi gi kite.But when the Gentiles and Jews, together with their rulers, set out to mistreat and stone them,

6To joote nofwenyo gima negichano timo, omiyo negiringo gidhi Lustra gi Derbe, mier mag Lukaonia, kendo e mier molworogi,they found out about it and fled to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra and Derbe and to the surrounding region,

7mi kuno bende ne giyaloe Injili.where they continued to preach the gospel.

8E dala mar Lustra, ne nitiere ngʼat moro ma tiendeni ongʼol. Ngʼatni nongʼol nyaka aa nywolne kendo ne pok owuotho nyaka nene.In Lystra there sat a man crippled in his feet, who was lame from birth and had never walked.

9Nochiko ite kowinjo kaka Paulo ne wuoyo. Paulo nongʼiye tir moneno ka en-gi yie mane nyalo miyo ochangi,This man was listening to the words of Paul, who looked intently at him and saw that he had faith to be healed.

10mi nowachone giduol maduongʼ niya, “Chungʼ gi tiendi!” Gikanyono ngʼatno nochikore malo mochako wuoth.In a loud voice Paul called out, “Stand up on your feet!” And the man jumped up and began to walk.

11Kane oganda mane ni kanyo oneno gima Paulo otimo, ne gikok gi dho jo-Lukaonia niya, “Nyiseche osekawo kit dhano mi obiro irwa ka!”When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices in the Lycaonian language: “The gods have come down to us in human form!”

12Negimiyo Barnaba nying ni Zeu, to Paulo negichako ni Hermes, nikech en ema ne en jayalo maduongʼ.Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.

13Jadolo mar Zeu, ma hekalune noger machiegni gi dalano, nokelo rwedhi kod maua mi giketo e dhoranga dalano mondo en, kaachiel gi oganda, gitim misango ni Paulo kod Barnaba.The priest of Zeus, whose temple was just outside the city, brought bulls and wreaths to the city gates, hoping to offer a sacrifice along with the crowds.

14To ka joote Paulo gi Barnaba nowinjo wachno, ne giyiecho lepgi mi giringo matek ka gichomo ogandano, ka gikok niya,But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul found out about this, they tore their clothes and rushed into the crowd, shouting,

15“Jowadwa, utimonwa kamano nikech angʼo? Wan mana ji kaka un. Wakelonu Injili manyisou mondo ua e gik manonogi mondo ungʼe Nyasaye Mangima, manochweyo polo gi piny gi nam kod gik moko duto manie igi.“Men, why are you doing this? We too are only men, human like you. We are bringing you good news that you should turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made heaven and earth and sea and everything in them.

16Kinde mokalo Nyasaye noweyo ogendini duto mondo oluw yoregi giwegi.In past generations, He let all nations go their own way.

17To kata kamano, ok oseweyowa maonge yo ma dwangʼeyego. Osenyisou ngʼwonone komiyou koth moa e polo, kendo komiyo cham chieknu e kinde mowinjore; osebedo komiyou chiemo mathoth kendo opongʼo chunyu gi mor.”Yet He has not left Himself without testimony to His goodness: He gives you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.”

18To kata negisewuoyo kamano, jogo ne pod dwaro mana timonegi misango.Even with these words, Paul and Barnabas could hardly stop the crowds from sacrificing to them.

19Bangʼe jo-Yahudi moko nobiro koa Antiokia kod Ikonio mi gisemo ji odoknigi. Negigoyo Paulo gi kite mi giywaye e lowo nyaka oko mar dala, ka giparo ni osetho.Then some Jews arrived from Antioch and Iconium and won over the crowds. They stoned Paul and dragged him outside the city, presuming he was dead.

20To ka jopuonjre nobiro molwore kama noninde, noa malo modok ei dalano. Kinyne ne giwuok gi Barnaba mi gidhi Derbe.But after the disciples had gathered around him, he got up and went back into the city. And the next day he left with Barnabas for Derbe.

21Paulo gi Barnaba ne joyalo Injili e dala mar Derbe mi giloko jopuonjre mangʼeny. Bangʼe negidok Lustra, gi Ikonio kod Antiokia,They preached the gospel to that city and made many disciples. Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch,

22ka gitego chuny jopuonjre kendo gijiwogi mondo gisiki e yie. Negipuonjogi kagiwacho niya, “Wan duto nyaka wane sand mathoth eka wadonji e pinyruoth Nyasaye.”strengthening the souls of the disciples and encouraging them to continue in the faith. “We must endure many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” they said.

23Kane giseketo jodongo e kanisa ka kanisa, mi gilamonegi ka gitweyo chiemo, negiketogi e lwet Ruoth Yesu mane giseyie kuome.Paul and Barnabas appointed elders for them in each church, praying and fasting as they entrusted them to the Lord, in whom they had believed.

24Negiluwo piny Pisidia mi gichopo Pamfilia,After passing through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.

25to bangʼ yalo Injili Perga, negidhi mwalo nyaka Atalia.And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.

26Kane gia Atalia, negikwangʼ mi gidok Antiokia, kuma ne giyudo e pwoch kuom tich maber mane gisetimo kuom ngʼwono mar Nyasaye.From Attalia they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work they had just completed.

27Kane gichopo kuno, negichoko kanisa kaachiel mi ginyisogi gik moko duto ma Nyasaye nosetimo ka otiyo kodgi, kendo kaka noseyawo dhoot mar yie mondo joma ok jo-Yahudi oyud warruok.When they arrived, they gathered the church together and reported all that God had done through them, and how He had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.

28Negibet gi jopuonjre kuno kuom ndalo mangʼeny.And they spent a long time there with the disciples.
