Mga Gawa 16

¹ At siya'y naparoon din naman sa Derbe at sa Listra: at narito, naroon ang isang alagad, na nagngangalang Timoteo, na anak ng isang Judiang sumasampalataya; datapuwa't Griego ang kaniyang ama.

¹ Paul came also to Derbe and to Lystra. And a disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer, but his father was a Greek,

³ Iniibig ni Pablo na sumama siya sa kaniya; at kaniyang kinuha siya at tinuli dahil sa mga Judio na nangasa mga dakong yaon: sapagka't nalalaman ng lahat na ang kaniyang ama'y Griego.

³ Paul wanted this man to go with him; and he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.

⁵ Kaya nga, ang mga iglesia'y pinalakas sa pananampalataya at naragdagan ang bilang araw-araw.

⁵ So the churches were being strengthened in the faith, and were increasing in number daily.

⁷ At nang sila'y magsidating sa tapat ng Misia, ay pinagsikapan nilang magsipasok sa Bitinia; at hindi sila tinulutan ng Espiritu ni Jesus;

⁷ and after they came to Mysia, they were trying to go into Bithynia, and the Spirit of Jesus did not permit them;

⁹ At napakita ang isang pangitain sa gabi kay Pablo: May isang lalaking taga Macedonia na nakatayo, na namamanhik sa kaniya, at sinasabi, Tumawid ka sa Macedonia, at tulungan mo kami.

⁹ A vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing and appealing to him, and saying, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.”

¹¹ Pagtulak nga sa Troas, ay pinunta namin ang Samotracia, at nang kinabukasa'y ang Neapolis;

¹¹ So putting out to sea from Troas, we ran a straight course to Samothrace, and on the day following to Neapolis;

¹³ At nang araw ng sabbath ay nagsilabas kami sa labas ng pintuan sa tabi ng ilog, na doo'y sinapantaha naming may mapapanalanginan; at kami'y nangaupo, at nakipagsalitaan sa mga babaing nangagkatipon.

¹³ And on the Sabbath day we went outside the gate to a riverside, where we were supposing that there would be a place of prayer; and we sat down and began speaking to the women who had assembled.

¹⁵ At nang siya'y mabautismuhan na, at ang kaniyang mga kasangbahay, ay namanhik siya sa amin, na sinasabi, Kung inyong inaakalang ako'y tapat sa Panginoon, ay magsipasok kayo sa aking bahay, at kayo'y magsitira doon. At kami'y pinilit niya.

¹⁵ And when she and her household had been baptized, she urged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay.” And she prevailed upon us.

¹⁷ Siya'y sumusunod kay Pablo at sa amin at nagsisigaw, na sinasabi, Mga alipin ng Kataastaasang Dios ang mga taong ito, na nagsisipangaral sa inyo ng daan ng kaligtasan.

¹⁷ Following after Paul and us, she kept crying out, saying, “These men are bond-servants of the Most High God, who are proclaiming to you the way of salvation.”

¹⁹ Datapuwa't nang makita ng kaniyang mga panginoon na wala na ang inaasahan nilang kapakinabangan, ay hinuli nila si Pablo at si Silas, at kinaladkad sila sa pamilihan, sa harapan ng mga may kapangyarihan,

¹⁹ But when her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the market place before the authorities,

²¹ At nangaghahayag ng mga kaugaliang hindi matuwid nating tanggapin, o gawin, palibhasa tayo'y Romano.

²¹ and are proclaiming customs which it is not lawful for us to accept or to observe, being Romans.”

²³ At nang sila'y mapalo na nila ng marami, ay ipinasok sila sa bilangguan, na ipinagtatagubilin sa tagapamahala na sila'y bantayang maigi:

²³ When they had struck them with many blows, they threw them into prison, commanding the jailer to guard them securely;

²⁵ Datapuwa't nang maghahatinggabi na si Pablo at si Silas ay nagsipanalangin at nagsiawit ng mga himno sa Dios, at sila'y pinakikinggan ng mga bilanggo;

²⁵ But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns of praise to God, and the prisoners were listening to them;

²⁷ At ang tagapamahala, palibhasa'y nagising sa pagkakatulog at nang makitang bukas ang mga pinto ng bilangguan, ay binunot ang kaniyang tabak at magpapakamatay sana, sa pagaakalang nangakatakas na ang mga bilanggo.

²⁷ When the jailer awoke and saw the prison doors opened, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.

²⁹ At siya'y humingi ng mga ilaw at tumakbo sa loob, at, nanginginig sa takot, ay nagpatirapa sa harapan ni Pablo at ni Silas,

²⁹ And he called for lights and rushed in, and trembling with fear he fell down before Paul and Silas,

³¹ At kanilang sinabi, Manampalataya ka sa Panginoong Jesus, at maliligtas ka, ikaw at ang iyong sangbahayan.

³¹ They said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.”

³³ At sila'y kaniyang kinuha nang oras ding yaon ng gabi, at hinugasan ang kanilang mga latay; at pagdaka'y binautismuhan, siya at ang buong sangbahayan niya.

³³ And he took them that very hour of the night and washed their wounds, and immediately he was baptized, he and all his household.

³⁵ Datapuwa't nang umaga na, ang mga hukom ay nangagsugo ng mga sarhento, na nagsasabi, Pawalan mo ang mga taong iyan.

³⁵ Now when day came, the chief magistrates sent their policemen, saying, “Release those men.”

³⁷ Datapuwa't sinabi sa kanila ni Pablo, Pinalo nila kami sa hayag, na hindi nangahatulan, bagama't mga lalaking Romano, at kami'y ibinilanggo; at ngayo'y lihim na kami'y pinawawalan nila? tunay na hindi nga; kundi sila rin ang magsiparito at kami'y pawalan.

³⁷ But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us in public without trial, men who are Romans, and have thrown us into prison; and now are they sending us away secretly? No indeed! But let them come themselves and bring us out.”

³⁹ At sila'y nagsiparoon at pinamanhikan sila; at nang kanilang mailabas na sila, ay hiniling nila sa kanila na magsilabas sa bayan.

³⁹ and they came and appealed to them, and when they had brought them out, they kept begging them to leave the city.
