Nagbisita si Pablo kay Santiago

17 Pag-abot namon sa Jerusalem, malipayon nga ginbaton kami sang mga kauturan kay Cristo. 18 Sang madason nga adlaw, kaupod namon si Pablo nga nagbisita kay Santiago. Didto man ang mga manugdumala sang iglesya sa Jerusalem. 19 Ginkumusta sila ni Pablo kag ginsugiran sila sang tanan nga ginhimo sang Dios sa mga indi Judio paagi sa iya.

20 Pagkabati nila sa mga ginsugid niya, nagdayaw sila tanan sa Dios. Dayon nagsiling sila kay Pablo, “Nahibaluan mo utod, linibo na nga mga Judio ang nagatuo kay Jesus kag sila tanan nagasunod gid sa Kasuguan ni Moises. 21 Nakabati sila nga nagapanudlo ka sa mga Judio nga nagaestar sa lugar sang mga indi Judio nga indi na sila dapat magsunod sa Kasuguan ni Moises. Nagsiling ka kuno nga indi na nila pagtulion ang ila mga kabataan kag indi na magsunod sa iban pa nga mga kinabatasan naton nga mga Judio. 22 Karon, ano ayhan ang maayo nga himuon? Kay sigurado gid nga mahibaluan nila nga diri ka na. 23 Maayo siguro nga himuon mo ang amon isiling sa imo. May apat diri ka lalaki nga may panaad sa Dios. 24 Mag-upod ka sa ila kag himuon ninyo ang seremonya nga ginasiling sang Kasuguan parte sa pagpakatinlo. Bayaran mo man ang ila mga kinahanglan sa paghalad sa Dios agod makapakalbo man sila. Amo ini ang paagi nga ang tanan makahibalo nga ang mga balita nga ila nabatian parte sa imo indi matuod, tungod nga makita nila nga ikaw man nagatuman sa Kasuguan ni Moises. 25 Kon parte sa mga indi Judio nga nagatuo kay Jesus, nakapadala na kami sang sulat sa ila parte sa amon ginkasugtan nga indi sila magkaon sang mga pagkaon nga ginhalad sa mga dios-dios, ukon dugo, ukon sang karne sang sapat nga sang pagkapatay ang dugo wala nakaguwa. Kag indi sila maghimo sang imoral nga pagpakigrelasyon.” 26 Gani sang madason nga adlaw gindala ni Pablo atong apat ka lalaki kag nag-intra siya sa ila pagpakatinlo suno sa ila panaad. Dayon nagkadto si Pablo sa templo agod isugid kon san-o matapos ang ila pagpakatinlo, kay sa tapos sini may ihalad nga mga sapat para sa tagsa-tagsa sa ila.

Gindakop si Pablo sa Templo

27 Sang madali na lang matapos ang ikapito nga adlaw sang ila pagpakatinlo, may mga Judio nga halin sa probinsya sang Asia nga nakakita kay Pablo sa templo. Ginsutsot nila ang tanan nga tawo didto sa templo nga dakpon si Pablo. 28 Nagsinggit sila, “Mga kasimanwa ko nga mga Israelinhon, bulig kamo! Amo ini ang tawo nga bisan diin siya magkadto nagapanudlo sing kontra sa aton nga mga Judio, kontra sa Kasuguan ni Moises, kag kontra sa sini nga templo. Indi lang ina, kundi gindala pa gid niya diri sa sulod sang templo ang mga tawo nga indi Judio, gani gindagtaan niya ining sagrado nga lugar!”

Paul’s Arrival at Jerusalem

17 When we arrived at Jerusalem, the brothers and sisters(A) received us warmly.(B) 18 The next day Paul and the rest of us went to see James,(C) and all the elders(D) were present. 19 Paul greeted them and reported in detail what God had done among the Gentiles(E) through his ministry.(F)

20 When they heard this, they praised God. Then they said to Paul: “You see, brother, how many thousands of Jews have believed, and all of them are zealous(G) for the law.(H) 21 They have been informed that you teach all the Jews who live among the Gentiles to turn away from Moses,(I) telling them not to circumcise their children(J) or live according to our customs.(K) 22 What shall we do? They will certainly hear that you have come, 23 so do what we tell you. There are four men with us who have made a vow.(L) 24 Take these men, join in their purification rites(M) and pay their expenses, so that they can have their heads shaved.(N) Then everyone will know there is no truth in these reports about you, but that you yourself are living in obedience to the law. 25 As for the Gentile believers, we have written to them our decision that they should abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals and from sexual immorality.”(O)

26 The next day Paul took the men and purified himself along with them. Then he went to the temple to give notice of the date when the days of purification would end and the offering would be made for each of them.(P)

Paul Arrested

27 When the seven days were nearly over, some Jews from the province of Asia saw Paul at the temple. They stirred up the whole crowd and seized him,(Q) 28 shouting, “Fellow Israelites, help us! This is the man who teaches everyone everywhere against our people and our law and this place. And besides, he has brought Greeks into the temple and defiled this holy place.”(R)

17 And when we were come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.

18 And the day following Paul went in with us unto James; and all the elders were present.

19 And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry.

20 And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord, and said unto him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are which believe; and they are all zealous of the law:

21 And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs.

22 What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for they will hear that thou art come.

23 Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men which have a vow on them;

24 Them take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave their heads: and all may know that those things, whereof they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.

25 As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written and concluded that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication.

26 Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of purification, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them.

27 And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews which were of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands on him,

28 Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man, that teacheth all men every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place.
