Acts 13

Ary teo amin'ny fiangonana tany Antiokia nisy mpaminany sy mpampianatra: Barnabasy sy Simeona, izay atao hoe Nigera, sy Losio Kyreniana sy Menahema (izay niolonono tamin'i Heroda mpanapaka) ary Saoly.

Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

Ary raha nanao fanompoam-pivavahana ho an'ny Tompo sy nifady hanina ireo, dia hoy ny Fanahy Masina: Atokàny ho Ahy Barnabasy sy Saoly hanao ny asa izay efa niantsoako azy.

As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.

Ary rehefa nifady hanina sy nivavaka ary nametra-tanana taminy izy, dia nandefa azy.

And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.

Ary rehefa nirahin'ny Fanahy Masina izy roa lahy, dia nidina nankany Seleokia izy ka niondrana an-tsambo teo hankany Kyprosy.

So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.

Ary nony tonga tany Salamisy izy, dia nitory ny tenin'Andriamanitra teny amin'ny synagogan'ny Jiosy; ary nitondra an'i Jaona koa ho mpanampy azy izy.

And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to their minister.

Ary rehefa namaky ny nosy ka tonga tany Pafo izy, dia nahita Jiosy anankiray atao hoe Barjesosy, mpanao ody sady mpaminany sandoka,

And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesus:

izay nitoetra tao amin'i Serygio Paolo, governoran'ny tany sady lehilahy hendry; ary izy nampaka an'i Barnabasy sy Saoly hankao aminy ka naniry mba hahare ny tenin'Andriamanitra.

Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.

Fa Elyma, mpanao ody (fa izany no anarany, raha adika), nanohitra azy roa lahy sady nitady hampivily ny governora tsy hanaiky ny finoana.

But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.

Fa Saoly kosa, izay atao hoe koa Paoly, feno ny Fanahy Masina, dia nibanjina azy

Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him,

ka nanao hoe: Ialahy feno ny fitaka rehetra sy ny fahafetsena rehetra, ialahy zanaky ny devoly sady fahavalon'ny fahamarinana rehetra, tsy hitsahatra tsy hamily ny lala-mahitsin'ny Tompo va ialahy?

And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

Ary, indro, ankehitriny ny tanan'ny Tompo hamely an'ialahy, dia ho jamba ialahy ka tsy hahita masoandro aloha. Dia latsaka tao aminy niaraka tamin'izay ny mampanjambena sy ny aizina, ary niraparapa nitady olona hitantana azy izy.

And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.

Ary ny governora, nony nahita izay efa natao, dia nino sady talanjona tamin'ny fampianaran'ny Tompo.

Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

Ary Paoly sy ny namany, rehefa niondrana an-tsambo niala avy tany Pafo, dia tonga tany Peryga any Pamfyha; fa Jaona nandao azy ka niverina nankany Jerosalema.

Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.

Ary rehefa niala tany Peryga izy ireo, dia nandroso nankany Antiokia any Pisidia, dia niditra tao amin'ny synagoga tamin'ny andro Sabata ka nipetraka teo.

But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.

Ary rehefa vita ny famakiana ny lalàna sy ny mpaminany, ny mpanapaka ny synagoga dia nampilaza taminy ka nanao hoe: Ry rahalahy, raha misy fananarana hataonareo amin'ny olona, dia ataovy.

And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.

Ary Paoly nitsangana, dia nanofa tanana azy ka nanao hoe: Ry lehilahy Isiraely sy ianareo izay matahotra an'Andriamanitra, mihainoa;

Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.

Andriamanitr'izao olona Isiraely izao efa nifidy ny razantsika ka nanandratra ny olona, raha nivahiny tany amin'ny tany Egypta izy, ary sandry avo no nitondrany azy nivoaka avy tany.

The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it.

Ary Izy nandefitra tamin'ny nataony tany an-efitra tokony ho efa-polo taona.

And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness.

Ary rehefa nandrava firenena fito tany amin'ny tany Kanana Izy, dia nampandovainy ny tanin'ireny izy

And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.

tokony ho dimam-polo amby efa-jato taona; ary rehefa afaka izany, dia nomeny mpitsara izy hatramin'i Samoela mpaminany.

And after that he gave unto them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.

Ary rehefa afaka indray izany, dia nangataka mpanjaka izy; ka dia nomen'Andriamanitra azy efa-polo taona Saoly, zanak'i Kisy, lehilahy avy tamin'ny firenen'i Benjamina.

And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.

Ary rehefa nanaisotra an'i Saoly Izy, dia nanandratra an'i Davida ho mpanjakany sady nanambara azy hoe: Izaho nahita an'i Davida, zanak'i Jese, lehilahy araka ny foko, izay hanao ny sitrapoko rehetra (1 Sam. 13. 14; Sal. 89. 20).

And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.

Avy tamin'ny taranak'izany lehilahy izany no nitondran'Andriamanitra an'i Jesosy araka ny teny fikasana ho Mpamonjy ny Isiraely,

Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

rehefa notorin'i Jaona tamin'ny olona Isiraely rehetra aloha ny batisan'ny fibebahana, fony tsy mbola tonga Izy.

When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

Ary Jaona, rehefa nadiva no nahatanteraka ny nalehany, dia nanao hoe: Ataonareo ho iza moa aho? Tsy Izy aho; fa, indro, misy Anankiray avy ao aoriako, ka izaho tsy miendrika hamaha ny kapa eo an-tongony akory.

And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.

Ry rahalahy, taranak'i Abrahama, sy izay rehetra eo aminareo matahotra an'Andriamanitra, dia ho amintsika no nampitondrana ny tenin'izao famonjena izao.

Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.

Fa izay monina any Jerosalema sy ny loholony, satria tsy mba nahafantatra Azy, na ny feon'ny mpaminany izay vakina isan-tSabata, dia nahatanteraka izany tamin'ny nanamelohany Azy.

For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.

Ary na dia tsy hitany aza izay tokony hanamelohana Azy ho faty, dia nangataka tamin'i Pilato ihany izy hamonoana Ary.

And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.

Ary rehefa nahatanteraka izay rehetra voasoratra ny amin'i Jesosy izy, dia nanaisotra Azy tamin'ny hazo ka nandevina Azy tao am-pasana.

And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.

Fa Andriamanitra kosa nanangana Azy tamin'ny maty.

But God raised him from the dead:

Ary Izy niseho andro maro tamin'izay niara-niakatra taminy avy tany Galilia ho any Jerosalema, ka dia ireo no vavolombelony amin'ny olona ankehitriny.

And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.

Ary izahay mitory ny filazantsara aminareo, dia ilay teny fikasana nolazaina tamin'ny razana,

And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,

dia ny nahatanterahan'Andriamanitra izany tamin'ny zanatsika, raha nanangana an'i Jesosy Izy, araka ny voasoratra eo amin'ny Salamo faharoa hoe: Zanako Hianao, Izaho niteraka Anao androany (Sal. 2. 7).

God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.

Ary ny amin'ny nananganany Azy tamin'ny maty, ka tsy hiverina ho amin'ny lò intsony Izy, dia izao no voalazany: Homeko anareo ny famindram-po mahatoky nampanantenaina an'i Davida (Isa. 55. 3).

And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.

Fa hoy Izy ao amin'ny Salamo hafa koa: Tsy hamela ny Iray Masinao ho tratry ny lò Hianao (Sal. 16. 10).

Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

Fa Davida, rehefa nahatanteraka ny sitrapon'Andriamanitra hahasoa ny olona niara-belona taminy, dia nodi-mandry ka nangonina ho any amin'ny razany izy ary tratry ny lò;

For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:

fa Izay natsangan'Andriamanitra no tsy mba tratry ny lò.

But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.

Ary aoka ho fantatrareo, ry rahalahy, fa izany Lehilahy izany no itoriana famelan-keloka aminareo;

Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:

ary ao aminy no anamarinana izay rehetra mino ho afaka amin'ny heloka rehetra izay tsy azo nanamarinana anareo tamin'ny lalàn'i Mosesy.

And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.

Koa tandremo fandrao hihatra izay voalaza eo amin'ny mpaminany hoe:

Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;

Izahaonareo mpamotsifotsy, dia gagà, ka levona; Fa Izaho manao asa amin'ny andronareo, Dia asa izay tsy hinoanareo akory, na dia hisy hilaza aminareo aza (Hab. 1. 5)

Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.

Ary rehefa nivoaka izy, dia nangatahiny holazaina aminy indray izany teny izany amin'ny Sabata manaraka.

And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.

Ary rehefa nirava ny fiangonana, dia maro tamin'ny Jiosy sy ny proselyta izay nanompo an'Andriamanitra no nanaraka an'i Paoly sy Barnabasy, izay niteny taminy ka namporisika azy haharitra amin'ny fahasoavan'Andriamanitra.

Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

Ary nony tamin'ny Sabata manaraka, dia saiky tafangona avokoa ny tao an-tanàna hihaino ny tenin'Andriamanitra.

And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.

Nefa ny Jiosy kosa, raha nahita ny vahoaka betsaka, dia feno fialonana ka nanohitra ny teny nolazain'i Paoly, sady niteny ratsy.

But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.

Ary Paoly sy Barnabasy dia niteny tamin'ny fahasahiana ka nanao hoe: Hianareo no tsy maintsy nitoriana ny tenin'Andriamanitra aloha; fa rehefa mandà izany ianareo ka manao ny tenanareo ho tsy miendrika hahazo fiainana mandrakizay, dia indro, mitodika mankany amin'ny jentilisa izahay;

Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.

fa izao no nandidian'ny Tompo anay: Efa nanendry Anao ho fahazavan'ny jentilisa Aho, Mba ho famonjena hatrany amin'ny faran'ny tany Hianao (Isa. 49. 6).

For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.

Ary rehefa nandre izany ny jentilisa, dia faly izy ka nankalaza ny tenin'Andriamanitra; ary izay voalahatra ho amin'ny fiainana mandrakizay dia nino.

And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

Ary ny tenin'ny Tompo dia naely eran'izany tany rehetra izany.

And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.

Fa ny Jiosy nampitaitra ny vehivavy manan-kaja izay nivavaka sy ny lehibe tao an-tanàna, dia nahatonga fanenjehana tamin'i Paoly sy Barnabasy ireny ka nandroaka azy niala tamin'ny taniny.

But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their coasts.

Fa izy roa lahy kosa nanintsana ny vovoka tamin'ny tongony hiampanga ireo, dia nankany Ikonioma.

But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto Iconium.

Ary dia feno fifaliana sy ny Fanahy Masina ny mpianatra.

And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.
