Acts 18

Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia niala tany Atena Paoly ka nankany Korinto.

After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;

Ary izy nahita Jiosy anankiray atao hoe Akoila, izay teraka tany Ponto, vao avy tany Italia, ary Prisila vadiny (fa Klaodio efa nandidy ny Jiosy rehetra hiala tany Roma), dia nankeo amin'izy mivady Paoly.

And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.

Ary satria niray raharaha taminy izy, dia nitoetra tao aminy ka niasa; fa ny manao lay no raharahany.

And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.

Ary niady hevitra isan-tSabata tao amin'ny synagoga izy ka nampanaiky ny Jiosy sy ny jentilisa.

And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.

Ary rehefa tafidina avy tany Makedonia Silasy sy Timoty, dia voaterin'ny teny Paoly ka nanambara tamin'ny Jiosy fa Jesosy no Kristy.

And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Christ.

Ary nony nanohitra sy niteny ratsy ireo, dia nanopakopa-damba izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Aoka ho ao an-dohanareo ny ranareo; afaka aho; ary amin'izao sisa izao dia hankany amin'ny jentilisa aho.

And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his raiment, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.

Ary raha niala teo izy, dia niditra tao an-tranon'ny lehilahy atao hoe Titosy Josto, izay nivavaka tamin'Andriamanitra; ary ny tranony nifanolotra tamin'ny synagoga.

And he departed thence, and entered into a certain man's house, named Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue.

Ary Krispo, mpanapaka ny synagoga, mbamin'ny ankohonany rehetra dia nino ny Tompo; ary maro koa ny Korintiana, raha nandre, dia nino ka natao batisa.

And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized.

Ary ny Tompo niteny tamin'i Paoly tamin'ny fahitana nony alina ka nanao hoe: Aza matahotra, fa mitenena ihany, ka aza mangina;

Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:

fa Izaho momba anao, ary tsy hisy olona hihazona anao hanisy ratsy anao; fa manana olona maro amin'ity tanàna ity Aho.

For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city.

Ary izy nitoetra teo herintaona sy enim-bolana ka nampianatra ny tenin'Andriamanitra teo aminy.

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

Fa raha Galio no governora tany Akaia dia niray tetika hisambotra an'i Paoly ny Jiosy, ary nitondra azy nankeo amin'ny fitsarana,

And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,

ka dia nanao hoe: Ilehio mampanaiky ny olona hivavaka amin'Andriamanitra, nefa tsy araka ny lalàna.

Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.

Ary raha hiloa-bava Paoly, dia hoy Galio tamin'ny Jiosy: Ry Jiosy, raha misy heloka, na zavatra ratsy natao, dia mety raha mandefitra aminareo.aho;

And when Paul was now about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O ye Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:

fa raha ady hevitra sy anarana ary ny lalànareo kosa, dia ataovinareo ihany; fa izaho tsy te-hitsara izany raharaha izany.

But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law, look ye to it; for I will be no judge of such matters.

Ary nandroaka azy hiala teo anoloan'ny fitsarana izy.

And he drave them from the judgment seat.

Ary izy rehetra nisambotra an'i Sostena, mpanapaka ny synagoga, dia nikapoka azy teo anoloan'ny fitsarana. Nefa tsy nahoan'i Galio izany zavatra izany.

Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things.

Ary Paoly mbola nitoetra teo andro maromaro ihany, ary rehefa nanao veloma ny rahalahy izy, dia niondrana an-tsambo nankany Syria, ary Prisila sy Akoila niaraka taminy koa; ny volon-dohany nohetezany tany Kenkrea, satria efa nivoady izy.

And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.

Ary tonga tany Efesosy izy, dia nandao azy mivady teo Paoly ka lasa niditra tao amin'ny synagoga ka niady hevitra tamin'ny Jiosy.

And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.

Ary nangataka azy hitoetra elaela kokoa ny olona, fa tsy nety izy,

When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;

fa nanao veloma azy ka nanao hoe: Mbola hiverina hankatỳ aminareo indray aho, raha sitrapon'Andriamanitra. Dia niondrana an-tsambo niala tany Efesosy izy.

But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.

Ary rehefa tafatody tany Kaisaria izy, dia niakatra ka niarahaba ny fiangonana vao nidina nankany Antiokia.

And when he had landed at Cæsarea, and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.

Ary rehefa nitoetra tao elaela ihany izy, dia lasa nandeha nitety ny tany Galatia sy Frygia ka nampahery ny mpianatra rehetra.

And after he had spent some time there, he departed, and went over all the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.

Ary tonga tany Efesosy ny Jiosy anankiray atao hoe Apolosy, izay teraka tany Aleksandria, lehilahy nahay nandaha-teny sady nahery tamin'ny Soratra Masina.

And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.

Izany lehilahy izany efa nampianarina ny lalan'ny Tompo; ary nafana fo izy, dia niteny sy nampianatra marimarina ny amin'i Jesosy, kanefa ny batisan'i Jaona ihany no fantany.

This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.

Ary izy niteny tamin'ny fahasahiana teo amin'ny synagoga; ary rehefa nandre azy Prisila sy Akoila, dia nandray azy hankao aminy ka nampianatra azy marimarina kokoa ny amin'ny lalan'Andriamanitra.

And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly.

Ary rehefa ta-handroso hankany Akaia izy, dia namporisika azy ny rahalahy sady nanoratra taratasy ho any amin'ny mpianatra mba handray azy tsara; ary rehefa tonga izy, dia nampahatanjaka tsara izay efa nino noho ny fahasoavana;

And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them much which had believed through grace:

fa izy nahery nandresy lahatra ny Jiosy teo imason'ny olona ka naneho marimarina tamin'ny Soratra Masina fa Jesosy no Kristy.

For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.
