1 N ow it came to pass, that when we had departed from them and set sail, running a straight course we came to Cos, the following day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.

Heoi ka wehe matou i a ratou, ka rere, a tika tonu atu, tae noa ki Koha, a ao ake te ra kei Roro, i reira atu ki Patara.

2 A nd finding a ship sailing over to Phoenicia, we went aboard and set sail.

Na ka rokohanga tetahi kaipuke e whakawhiti atu ana ki Pinika, a eke ana matou ki runga, rere ana.

3 W hen we had sighted Cyprus, we passed it on the left, sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload her cargo.

A ka kitea Kaiperu, ka mahue ake i te taha ki maui, ka rere atu matou ki Hiria, a ka u ki Taira: hei reira hoki te kaipuke ruke ai i tona utanga.

4 A nd finding disciples, we stayed there seven days. They told Paul through the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.

A ka kitea nga akonga, e whitu nga ra i noho ai matou ki reira: ka korero hoki ratou ki a Paora, he mea na te Wairua, kia kaua ia e haere ki Hiruharama.

5 W hen we had come to the end of those days, we departed and went on our way; and they all accompanied us, with wives and children, till we were out of the city. And we knelt down on the shore and prayed.

A ka rite aua ra o matou, ka puta atu matou, ka haere; me te kawe ano ratou katoa, me nga wahine, me nga tamariki, i a matou a waho ra ano o te pa: na ka tukua o matou turi ki te tahatai, ka inoi;

6 W hen we had taken our leave of one another, we boarded the ship, and they returned home.

Katahi ka poroporoaki matou tetahi ki tetahi; a eke ana matou ki te kaipuke; ko ratou ia i hoki ki o ratou kainga.

7 A nd when we had finished our voyage from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, greeted the brethren, and stayed with them one day.

A ka tutuki to matou rerenga atu i Taira, ka tae ki Toromai, na ka oha atu ki nga teina, a kotahi te ra i noho ai ki a ratou.

8 O n the next day we who were Paul’s companions departed and came to Caesarea, and entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.

I te aonga ake ka turia atu e matou, ka haere ki Hiharia: a tomo ana ki te whare o Piripi kaikauwhau, ko ia nei tetahi o nga tokowhitu; noho ana i a ia.

9 N ow this man had four virgin daughters who prophesied.

Na tokowha nga tamahine a taua tangata, he wahine, he poropiti.

10 A nd as we stayed many days, a certain prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.

A ka maha o matou ra i noho ai, ka haere mai tetahi poropiti i Huria, ko Akapu te ingoa.

11 W hen he had come to us, he took Paul’s belt, bound his own hands and feet, and said, “Thus says the Holy Spirit, ‘So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man who owns this belt, and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.’”

A, no to ratou taenga mai ki a matou, ka mau ki te whitiki o Paora, herea iho e ia ona ake ringa me ona waewae, ka mea, Ko ta te Wairua Tapu korero tenei, E peneitia te here o te tangata nona tenei whitiki e nga Hurai i Hiruharama, e tukua atu a no ia ki nga ringa o nga Tauiwi.

12 N ow when we heard these things, both we and those from that place pleaded with him not to go up to Jerusalem.

Heoi, i to matou rongonga i enei mea, ka tohe matou ko nga tangata o taua kainga, kia kaua ia e haere ki Hiruharama.

13 T hen Paul answered, “What do you mean by weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.”

Na ko te whakahokinga a Paora, he aha ta koutou e tangi, e whakangakaukore nei i ahau? ehara hoki i te mea ko te here anake taku e pai ai, engari ko te mate ano hoki ki Hiruharama, mo te ingoa o te Ariki, o Ihu.

14 S o when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, “The will of the Lord be done.” Paul Urged to Make Peace

A, no tona korenga i rongo, ka mutu ta matou, ka mea, Kia meatia ta te Ariki e pai ai.

15 A nd after those days we packed and went up to Jerusalem.

A ka pahemo enei ra, ka takai matou i a matou mea, a haere ana ki Hiruharama.

16 A lso some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us and brought with them a certain Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we were to lodge.

I haere tahi ano i a matou etahi o nga akonga o Hiharia, na ratou i mau ake a Nahona o Kaiperu, he akonga tawhito hei tukunga atu mo matou.

17 A nd when we had come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.

A, i to matou taenga ki Hiruharama, ka koa nga teina ki a matou.

18 O n the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present.

I te aonga ake ka haere tahi matou ko Paora ki a Hemi: i reira ano nga kaumatua katoa.

19 W hen he had greeted them, he told in detail those things which God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.

Na ka oha ia ki a ratou, ka korerotia takitahitia nga mea i mea ai te Atua kia mahia e ia i roto i nga Tauiwi.

20 A nd when they heard it, they glorified the Lord. And they said to him, “You see, brother, how many myriads of Jews there are who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law;

No to ratou rongonga, ka whakakororia i te Atua, ka mea ki a ia, Kua kite koe, e to matou teina, i nga mano tini o nga Hurai kua whakapono nei; e uaua katoa ana hoki ki te ture:

21 b ut they have been informed about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children nor to walk according to the customs.

Kua rongo ano hoki ratou ki a koe, e whakaako ana koe i nga Hurai katoa i roto i nga Tauiwi, kia whakarerea a Mohi, e mea ana kia kaua ratou e kokoti i nga tamariki, kia kaua ano e haere i runga i nga ritenga o mua.

22 W hat then? The assembly must certainly meet, for they will hear that you have come.

Na, me pehea? e kore hoki e kore ka rongo ratou ki tou taenga mai.

23 T herefore do what we tell you: We have four men who have taken a vow.

Na, me mea e koe tenei e korerotia nei e matou ki a koe: Tokowha o matou tangata, he kupu taurangi ta ratou;

24 T ake them and be purified with them, and pay their expenses so that they may shave their heads, and that all may know that those things of which they were informed concerning you are nothing, but that you yourself also walk orderly and keep the law.

Tangohia enei, kia purea ngatahitia koutou, mau ano e utu a ratou mea, kia waruhia ai o ratou matenga: a ka kite ratou katoa he teka noa nga mea i korerotia mou: engari ko koe, he tika tau haere, kei te whakarite ano koe i te ture.

25 B ut concerning the Gentiles who believe, we have written and decided that they should observe no such thing, except that they should keep themselves from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality.” Arrested in the Temple

Tena ko nga Tauiwi kua whakapono, kua tuhituhi atu matou, kua whakatakoto tikanga atu, kia tupato ratou i nga mea e patua ana ma nga whakapakoko, i te toto, i te mea kua notia te kaki, i te moe tahae.

26 T hen Paul took the men, and the next day, having been purified with them, entered the temple to announce the expiration of the days of purification, at which time an offering should be made for each one of them.

Na ka mau a Paora ki aua tangata, a i te aonga ake ka pure tahi, ka haere tahi ratou ki roto ki te temepara, hei whakaatu ka whakaritea nga ra mo te purenga, kia whakaherea ra ano he whakahere mo tetahi, mo tetahi o ratou.

27 N ow when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the temple, stirred up the whole crowd and laid hands on him,

Heoi ka tata nga ra e whitu te taka, ka kitea ia i roto i te temepara e etahi Hurai o Ahia: na ratou i whakaoho te mano katoa, a ka pa o ratou ringa ki a ia,

28 c rying out, “Men of Israel, help! This is the man who teaches all men everywhere against the people, the law, and this place; and furthermore he also brought Greeks into the temple and has defiled this holy place.”

Ka karanga, E nga tangata o Iharaira, awhinatia mai: Ko te tangata tenei e whakaako nei i nga tangata katoa o nga wahi katoa ki nga mea whakahe mo te iwi, mo te ture, mo tenei kainga hoki: kua kawea mai ano e ia etahi Kariki ki roto ki te temepa ra, a ka noa nei i a ia tenei wahi tapu.

29 ( For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)

I kite hoki ratou i mua he hoa nona i roto i te pa, ko Toropimu o Epeha; tohu noa ratou, kua mauria mai ia e Paora ki roto ki te temepara.

30 A nd all the city was disturbed; and the people ran together, seized Paul, and dragged him out of the temple; and immediately the doors were shut.

Na ka oho te pa katoa, ka oma nga tangata: a ka mau ratou ki a Paora, toia ana ia ki waho o te temepara: tutakina tonutia atu nga tatau.

31 N ow as they were seeking to kill him, news came to the commander of the garrison that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.

Na i a ratou e whai ana kia patua ia, ka tae te rongo ki te rangatira mano o te hapu hoia, kua tutu te puehu i Hiruharama katoa.

32 H e immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down to them. And when they saw the commander and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.

Na hohoro tonu tana mau ki etahi hoia, ki etahi keneturio, a oma iho ana ki a ratou: a, no to ratou kitenga i te rangatira mano, i nga hoia hoki, ka mutu te patu i a Paora.

33 T hen the commander came near and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and he asked who he was and what he had done.

Na ka whakatata mai te rangatira mano, ka tango i a ia, ka mea kia herea ia ki nga mekameka e rua; a ka ui ko wai ia, i aha hoki ia.

34 A nd some among the multitude cried one thing and some another. So when he could not ascertain the truth because of the tumult, he commanded him to be taken into the barracks.

Na he karanga ano ta etahi, he karanga ke ta etahi, i roto i te mano: na kihai ia i mohio ki te tino tikanga, i te ngangau hoki, a whakahaua ana kia arahina ia ki te pa.

35 W hen he reached the stairs, he had to be carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the mob.

A, no tona taenga ki te pikitanga, ka hikitia ia e nga hoia i te taututetutenga hoki a te tangata;

36 F or the multitude of the people followed after, crying out, “Away with him!” Addressing the Jerusalem Mob

I aru hoki te huihui o te iwi, me te karanga, Whakamatea ia.

37 T hen as Paul was about to be led into the barracks, he said to the commander, “May I speak to you?” He replied, “Can you speak Greek?

A, no ka whano a Paora te kawea ki roto ki te pa, ka mea ia ki te rangatira mano, E pai ana ranei kia korero ahau i tetahi kupu ki a koe? Ka mea ia, E matau ana ranei koe ki te reo Kariki?

38 A re you not the Egyptian who some time ago stirred up a rebellion and led the four thousand assassins out into the wilderness?”

Ehara oi koe i te Ihipiana, nana nei i whakatupu te tutu i mua ake ra, a mauria ana e ia nga tangata kohuru e wha mano ki te koraha?

39 B ut Paul said, “I am a Jew from Tarsus, in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city; and I implore you, permit me to speak to the people.”

Ka mea a Paora, he Hurai ahau, no Tarahu o Kirikia, he tangata tupu no taua pa, ehara hoki i te pa ingoakore: na ko taku inoi tenei ki a koe, tukua ahau kia korero ki te iwi.

40 S o when he had given him permission, Paul stood on the stairs and motioned with his hand to the people. And when there was a great silence, he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, saying,

Na tukua ana e ia, a tu ana a Paora ki te pikitanga, ka tawhiri tona ringa ki te iwi. Na mutu pu te turituri, ka korero ia, no nga Hiperu te reo, ka mea,
