Eginak 20
1 Bada tumultoa appacegatu cenean, Paul discipuluac beregana deithuric eta bessarcaturic, parti cedin Macedoniarát ioaiteco.
When the uproar had ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, and, with encouraging words, bade them goodbye, and started on his journey to Macedonia.
2 Eta comarca hetan ebili cenean, eta exhortatu cituenean hitz anhitzez, ethor cedin Greciara.
After going through those districts and speaking many encouraging words to the disciples, he went into Greece, where he stayed three months.
3 Eta han hirur hilebethe eguinic, ceren Iuduéc celata eguiten baitzeraucaten Syriarat embarcatu içan baliz: haren abisua içan cen Macedonian gaindi itzultzera.
He was about to sail to Syria, when he learned that a plot had been laid against him by several of the Jewish leaders; so he decided to return by way of Macedonia.
4 Eta lagund ceçan hura Sopater Beroenesac Asiarano: eta Thessaloniceanoetaric, Aristarquec eta Secondec, eta Gaio Derbianoac, eta Timotheoc: eta Asianoetaric, Tychiquec eta Trophimec.
He was accompanied by Sopater the son of Pyrrhus, of Beroea, Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica, Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy, as well as by Tychicus and Trophimus of Roman Asia.
5 Hauc aitzinerát ioanic iguriqui guençaten Troasen.
These people went to Troas and waited for us there;
6 Eta gu embarca guentecen altchagarri gaberico oguien egunén ondoan Philippestic, eta ethor guentecen hetara Troasera, borz egunen buruan: non egon baiquentecen çazpi egun.
while we ourselves sailed from Philippi after the Passover, and joined them five days later at Troas, where we stayed for a week.
7 Eta asteco lehen egunean oguiaren haustera discipuluac bilduac içan eta, Paul minço cen hequin (ceren biharamunean partitzeco baitzén) eta iraun ceçan haren proposac gauherdi arterano.
On the first day of the week, when we had met for the breaking of bread, Paul, who was intending to leave the next day, began to address those who were present, and prolonged his address until midnight.
8 Eta cen anhitz lampa gambera gorán, non bilduac baiquinaden.
There were a good many lamps in the upstairs room, where we had met;
9 Eta iarriric cegoela guiçon gaztebat Eutyche deitzen cenic leiho gainean, logale handi batec harturic, Paul luçaqui minço cela, loa garaithuric eror cedin hirurgarren soillerutic beherera, eta hila altcha ceçaten.
and a young man named Eutychus, sitting at the window, was gradually overcome with great drowsiness, as Paul continued his address. At last, quite overpowered by his drowsiness, he fell from the third story to the ground, and was picked up for dead.
10 Baina iautsiric Paul behera cedin haren gainera, eta bessarcaturic erran ceçan, Etzaiteztela trubla ecen hunen arimá haur baithan da.
But Paul went down, threw himself on him, and put his arms around him. “Do not be alarmed,” he said, “he is still alive.”
11 Guero iganic eta oguia hautsiric eta ianic, eta luçaqui minçaturic arguirano, hala parti cedin.
Then he went upstairs; and, after breaking and partaking of the bread, he talked with them at great length until daybreak, and then left.
12 Eta guiçon gazteor viciric ekar ceçaten, eta haguitz consola citecen.
Meanwhile they had taken the lad away alive, and were greatly comforted.
13 Eta gu vncira ethorriric embarca guentecen Assoserat, handic hartzeco guenduen Paul: ecen hala ordenatu çuen, berac bide hura oinez eguin gogoz.
We started first, went on board ship, and sailed for Assos, intending to take Paul on board there. This was by his own arrangement, as he intended to go by land himself.
14 Bada Asson gurequin bathu cenean, hura harturic ethor guentecen Mitylenera.
So, when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and went on to Mitylene.
15 Eta handic embarcaturic, biharamunean ethor guentecen Chiosen aurkara: eta hurrenengo egunean arriua guentecen Samosera: eta Trogillen egonic, ondoco egunean ethor guentecen Miletera.
The day after we had sailed from there, we arrived off Chios, touched at Samos the following day, and the next day reached Miletus;
16 Ecen deliberatu çuen Paulec Ephesez aitzinago iragaitera, demboraric gal ezleçançát Asian: ecen lehiatzen cen baldin possible balitzayo Mendecoste egunean Ierusalemen içatera.
for Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so as to avoid spending much time in Roman Asia. He was making haste to reach Jerusalem, if possible, by the Festival at the close of the Harvest.
17 Eta Miletetic meçu igorriric Ephesera, dei citzan Eliçaco Ancianoac.
From Miletus, however, he sent to Ephesus and invited the church elders to meet him;
18 Eta harengana ethorri ciradenean erran ciecén, Çuec badaquiçue, Asian sar nendin lehen egunaz gueroztic, nola çuequin dembora gucian içan naicén:
and, when they came, he said to them, “You know well the life that I always led among you from the very first day that I set foot in Roman Asia,
19 Iauna cerbitzatzen nuela humilitate gucirequin eta anhitz nigar chortarequin, eta Iuduén celata egoitetaric ethorri içan çaizquidan tentationéquin:
serving the Lord, as I did, in all humility, amid the tears and trials which fell to my lot through the plots of some of the Jewish leaders.
20 Nola çuen probetchutaco gaucetaric eztrauçuedan deus estali, çuey declaratu eta iracatsi gabe publicoqui eta etchez etche:
I never shrank from telling you anything that could be helpful to you, or from teaching you both in public and in private.
21 Testificatzen nerauela hambat Iuduey nola Grecoey Iaincoa baitharatco emendamendua, eta Iesus gure Iauna baitharatco fedea.
I earnestly pointed both Jews and Greeks to the repentance that leads to God, and to faith in Jesus, our Lord.
22 Eta orain huná, ni Spirituaz estecatua, banoa Ierusalemera, hartan heltzeco çaizquidan gauçác eztaquizquidalaric:
And now, under spiritual constraint, I am here on my way to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there,
23 Salbu Spiritu sainduac hiriz hiri testificatzen baitraut, dioela ecen estecadurác eta tribulationeac ene beguira daudela.
except that in town after town the Holy Spirit plainly declares to me that imprisonment and troubles await me.
24 Baina eztut deusen ansiaric, eta neure vicia etzait precioso, acaba deçadançát neure cursua bozcariorequin, Iesus Iaunaganic recebitu dudan carguä, Iaincoaren gratiaren Euangelioa testifica dadinçát.
But I count my life of no value to myself, if only I may complete the course marked out for me, and the task that was allotted me by the Lord Jesus – which was to declare the good news of the love of God.
25 Eta orain huná, nic badaquit ecen guehiagoric eztuçuela ikussiren ene beguithartea çuetaric batec-ere, ceinén artetic iragan bainaiz Iaincoaren resumá predicatzen nuela.
And now, I tell you, I know that none of you will ever see my face again – you among whom I have gone about proclaiming the kingdom.
26 Halacotz testificatzen drauçuet egungo egunean, ecen chahu naicela ni gucien odoletic.
Therefore I declare to you this day, that my conscience is clear in regard to the fate of any of you,
27 Ecen eztut dissimulatu çuey denuntia eznieçaçuen Iaunaren conseillu gucia.
for I have not shrunk from announcing the whole purpose of God regarding you.
28 Gogoa eieçue bada çuen buruèy, eta arthalde guciari, ceinetan Spiritu sainduac eçarri baitzaituzte Ipizpicu, Iaincoaren Eliçaren bazcatzeco, cein conquestatu baitu bere odol propriaz.
Be watchful over yourselves, and over the whole flock, of which the Holy Spirit has placed you in charge, to shepherd the church of God, which he won for himself at the cost of his life.
29 Ecen nic badaquit haur, sarthuren diradela ene ioan ondoan otso dorpeac çuen artera, guppida eztutelaric arthaldea.
I know that, after my departure, merciless wolves will get in among you, who will not spare the flock;
30 Eta ceuron artetic iaiquiren dirade guiçonac denuntiatzen dituztela gauça gaichtoac, discipuluac bere ondoan erekar ditzatençát.
and from among yourselves, too, people will arise, who will teach perversions of truth, so as to draw away the disciples after them.
31 Halacotz veilleçaçue, orhoit çaretelaric ecen hirur vrthez gau eta egun eznaicela cessatu nigar chortarequin çuetaric batbederaren aduertitzetic.
Therefore, be on your guard, remembering how for three years, night and day, I never ceased, even with tears, to warn each one of you.
32 Eta orain-ere, anayeác, gommendatzen cerauzquiotet Iaincoari eta haren gratiaren hitzaric, cein baita botheretsu çuen edificatzen acabatzeco, eta çuey saindu guciequin heretagearen emaiteco.
And now I commend you to the Lord and to the message of his love – a message which has the power to build up your characters, and to give you your place among all those who have become Christ’s people.
33 Berceren vrrhea ez cilharra ez arropá eztut guthiciatu.
I have never coveted anyone’s gold or silver or clothing.
34 Baina ceuroc badaquiçue nola ene, eta enequin ciradenén behar ciraden gauçác fornitu vkan dituztén escu hauèc.
You, yourselves, know that these hands of mine provided not only for my own wants, but for my companions also.
35 Gucietan eracutsi drauçuet ecen hunela trabaillatuz behar diradela flacuac supportatu, eta Iesus Iaunaren hitzéz orhoit içan: ecen berac erran du, Gauça dohatsuagoa dela emaitea ecen ez hartzea.
I left nothing undone to show you that, laboring as I labored, you ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said himself – ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
36 Eta hitz hauc erran cituenean belhaurico iarriric eguin ceçan othoitze hequin guciequin.
When Paul had finished speaking, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
37 Orduan nigar handi guciéz eguin cedin: eta Paulen leppora bere buruäc egotziz pot eguiten ceraucaten:
All were in tears; and throwing their arms around Paul’s neck, they kissed him again and again,
38 Triste ciradelaric principalqui erran vkan çuen hitzagatic, ecen guehiagoric haren beguithartea ezlutela ikussiren. Eta vncira lagundu çaizcan.
grieving most of all over what he had said – that they would never see his face again. Then they escorted him to the ship.
