Surat Pasal Kereja Rasul 19

Paul Di Epesus

1 Lebuh Apollos agi di Korint, Paul bejalai nengah menua atas, lalu datai di Epesus. Dia iya tetemuka sekeda murid.

2 Lalu ku iya nanya sida, “Kati kita bisi nerima Roh Kudus lebuh kita arap?”
“Nadai,” ku sida nyaut. “Indah ninga pasal Roh Kudus deh kami enda kala.”

3 Iya lalu nanya sida, “Baptisa nama ti dikena maptisa kita?”
“Baptisa John,” ku sida nyaut.

4  t Paul lalu bejaku ngagai sida, “John maptisa ngena baptisa nesal ati, ngasuh orang Israel arapka orang siku ke deka datai dudi ari iya, iya nya, Jesus.”
5 Lebuh sida ninga nya, sida lalu dibaptisa dalam nama Tuhan Jesus. 6 Lebuh Paul udah ngengkahka jari iya atas sida, Roh Kudus lalu nurun atas sida. Sida lalu bejaku ngena jaku ti nyelai, lalu benabi.

7 Pemayuh semua sida kira dua belas iku.
8 Paul lalu tama ngagai balai gempuru, lalu dalam kandang tiga bulan iya bejaku enggau berani, lalu betalatka pasal Perintah Allah Taala. 9 Tang lebuh sekeda sida kieh ati, lalu enggai arap, sereta bejai Jalai Tuhan di mua semua raban sida, Paul ninggalka sida, lalu mai sida murid mupuk enggau iya, lalu tiap hari t iya betalat enggau sida dalam balai Tiranus.

10 Iya ngereja nya dua taun, datai ke semua orang ke diau di menua Asia, nyengkaum orang Judah enggau orang bansa bukai, udah bela ampit magang ninga jaku Tuhan.

Bala Anak Skeba

14 Pengawa nya dikereja tujuh iku anak lelaki imam besai orang Judah ke benama Skeba.

15 Tang ku roh ti jai nya bejaku ngagai sida, “Aku ngelala Jesus, lalu aku ngelala Paul, tang sapa kita tu?”
16 Orang ke dirasuk antu nya lalu nerekam sida, nangkap sida lalu ngalahka sida. Sida lalu rari telanjai-lanjai ari rumah nya sereta abis bakal. 17 Lebuh pekara tu ditemu semua orang Judah enggau orang bansa bukai ke diau di Epesus, semua sida takut magang, lalu nama Tuhan dikemesaika. 18 Mayuh sida ke arap datai lalu ngaku, di mua orang mayuh, kereja ti jai ti udah dikereja sida. 19 Mayuh manang datai mai bup sida, lalu nunu bup nya di mua orang mayuh. Lebuh rega semua bup nya diitung, rega semua utai nya nyau deka bulih lima puluh ribu singkap duit pirak.

20 Nya alai jaku Tuhan balat amat ngelekai sereta mansang dalam kuasa.

Orang Begau Di Epesus

22 Nya alai iya ngirumka dua iku penulung iya, Timoti seduai Erastus, ngagai Masedonia, lalu iya empu diau lama mimit di menua Asia.
23 Ba urung maya nya pengachau balat amat nyadi ketegal Jalai Tuhan. 24 Siku tukang temaga ke benama Demetrius, ke begagaka engkeramba rumah sembiang ke petara Artemis ari pirak, meri penguntung ti besai ngagai tukang ke bekereja begagaka utai nya. 25 Iya ngempuruka sida, enggau orang bukai ke sebaka pengawa enggau sida, lalu bejaku ngagai sida, “Kita nemu, kitai bulih pengaya ari pengawa dagang kitai tu. 26 Lalu kita mega meda sereta ninga, ukai semina di Epesus tang nyau ka di serata semua menua Asia, orang ke benama Paul tu udah mujuk sereta nguingka mayuh orang arapka jaku iya lebuh iya madahka petara ti digaga ngena jari nya ukai petara.

27 Nya alai, dagang kitai tau jai nama, lalu rumah sembiang petara Artemis ti besai tu tau pulai nadai guna agi, lalu iya ke disembah semua orang di Asia enggau di serata dunya, nadai agi dibasa orang!”
28 Lebuh sida ninga nya, sida lalu pedis ati, lalu manjung, “Besai meh Artemis orang Epesus!” 29 Semua orang dalam nengeri nya lalu begau magang. Sida lalu belanda ngagai siti balai di nengeri nya, ngirit Gaius seduai Aristarkus, dua iku orang Masedonia ke sama bejalai enggau Paul. 30 Paul bisi amat ati deka mansang ngagai tekang bala mayuh, tang sida murid enda nyagi iya; 31 indah sekeda orang perintah di menua nya, ke endang pangan Paul empu, deh ngirumka pesan ngagai iya, minta iya enda mansang ngagai balai nya. 32 Nyadi semua orang ke begempuru ba balai nya nyau bekerauh begau. Sekeda nyebut tu, lalu sekeda nyebut nya, laban mayuh sida enda nemu kebuah sida begempuru. 33 Sekeda orang Judah ngejuka Aleksander mansang ke mua, lalu madah ngagai iya utai ti patut disebut iya. Aleksander lalu ngepaika jari, minta orang badu agi ragak ngambika iya ulih bejaku ngarika diri di mua orang mayuh.

34 Tang lebuh sida ngelala iya nya orang Judah, semua sida lalu manjung kira dua jam, ku sida, “Besai meh Artemis orang Epesus!”
35 Tang lebuh kerani nengeri t udah ngasuh orang badu agi ragak, iya lalu bejaku, “Orang Epesus, semua orang nemu nengeri Epesus endang bisi rumah sembiang ke petara Artemis ti besai, enggau pasal anak patung ti labuh ari langit. 36 Laban utai nya enda ulih disangkal, kita patut diau diri, lalu enda ngereja utai ti enda menuku. 37 Kita udah mai orang tu kitu, taja pen sida nadai ngerumpak rumah sembiang tauka ngeleseka petara kitai.t 38 Nya alai, enti Demetrius enggau bala orang ke gawa ke iya deka bedawaka sapa-sapa, bilik kot endang seruran tebuka, lalu kitai bisi hakim. Awakka sida bedawaka pangan diri dia. 39 Enti kita bisi utai bukai ti keran deka ditemu kita, utai patut diputarka lebuh orang mayuh begempuru. 40 Laban kitai tau dikumbai orang salah ngaga pengachau sehari tu, laban kitai nadai kebuah begau baka tu.” 41 Lebuh iya udah nyebut nya, iya lalu ngasuh orang mayuh pulai.

Acts 19

1 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper country came to Ephesus, and found certain disciples:2 and he said unto them, Did ye receive the Holy Spirit when ye believed? And they said unto him, Nay, we did not so much as hear whether the Holy Spirit was given.3 And he said, Into what then were ye baptized? And they said, Into John’s baptism.4 And Paul said, John baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people that they should believe on him that should come after him, that is, on Jesus.5 And when they heard this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.7 And they were in all about twelve men.8 And he entered into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, reasoning and persuading as to the things concerning the kingdom of God.9 But when some were hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.10 And this continued for the space of two years; so that all they that dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.11 And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:12 insomuch that unto the sick were carried away from his body handkerchiefs or aprons, and the evil spirits went out.13 But certain also of the strolling Jews, exorcists, took upon them to name over them that had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, I adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.14 And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, a chief priest, who did this.15 And the evil spirit answered and said unto them, Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are ye?16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and mastered both of them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.17 And this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, that dwelt at Ephesus; and fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.18 Many also of them that had believed came, confessing, and declaring their deeds.19 And not a few of them that practised magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all; and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.20 So mightily grew the word of the Lord and prevailed.21 Now after these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.22 And having sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.23 And about that time there arose no small stir concerning the Way.24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Diana, brought no little business unto the craftsmen;25 whom he gathered together, with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this business we have our wealth.26 And ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they are no gods, that are made with hands:27 and not only is there danger that this our trade come into disrepute; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana be made of no account, and that she should even be deposed from her magnificence whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.28 And when they heard this they were filled with wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesus.29 And the city was filled with the confusion: and they rushed with one accord into the theatre, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel.30 And when Paul was minded to enter in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.31 And certain also of the Asiarchs, being his friends, sent unto him and besought him not to adventure himself into the theatre.32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was in confusion; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together.33 And they brought Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made a defense unto the people.34 But when they perceived that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.35 And when the townclerk had quieted the multitude, he saith, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there who knoweth not that the city of the Ephesians is temple-keeper of the great Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?36 Seeing then that these things cannot be gainsaid, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rash.37 For ye have brought hither these men, who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of our goddess.38 If therefore Demetrius, and the craftsmen that are with him, have a matter against any man, the courts are open, and there are proconsuls: let them accuse one another.39 But if ye seek anything about other matters, it shall be settled in the regular assembly.40 For indeed we are in danger to be accused concerning this day’s riot, there being no cause for it: and as touching it we shall not be able to give account of this concourse.41 And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
