12Beta pung parenta bagini: bosong musti basayang satu deng satu, sama ke Beta ju su sayang sang bosong.a 13Kalo satu orang sadia mati ko biar dia pung tamán bisa idop, dia sayang batúl sang dia pung tamán. Sonde ada sayang yang lebe hebat dari itu. 14Kalo bosong bekin iko Beta pung parenta tarús, bosong jadi Beta pung tamán dong. 15Beta sonde mau subu bosong, Beta pung ‘orang suru-suru’ lai. Te satu orang suru-suru sonde mangarti batúl dia pung bos pung mau-mau. Ma Beta subu bosong, andia Beta pung ‘tamán’, tagal Beta su buka kasi taráng samua-samua yang Beta pung Bapa su kasi tau sang Beta. 16Bosong sonde pili sang Beta. Ma Beta yang pili deng angka sang bosong ko kasi jalan ini tugas. Jadi, bosong musti pi bekin banya hal yang bae yang batahan lama. Itu sama ke pohon anggor satu yang kasi kaluar bua yang bae tarús-tarús. Kalo bosong bekin bagitu, na, bosong bisa minta apa sa di Beta pung Bapa, ais Dia bekin kasi sang bosong. 17Jadi, yang Beta parenta sang bosong ni, bagini: bosong musti basayang satu deng satu.”

15:12 Inilah perintah-Ku, yaitu supaya kamu saling mengasihi, seperti Aku telah mengasihi kamu. 15:13 Tidak ada kasih yang lebih besar dari pada kasih seorang yang memberikan nyawanya untuk sahabat-sahabatnya. 15:14 Kamu adalah sahabat-Ku, jikalau kamu berbuat apa yang Kuperintahkan kepadamu. 15:15 Aku tidak menyebut kamu lagi hamba, sebab hamba tidak tahu, apa yang diperbuat oleh tuannya, tetapi Aku menyebut kamu sahabat, karena Aku telah memberitahukan kepada kamu segala sesuatu yang telah Kudengar dari Bapa-Ku. 15:16 Bukan kamu yang memilih Aku, tetapi Akulah yang memilih kamu. Dan Aku telah menetapkan kamu, supaya kamu pergi dan menghasilkan buah dan buahmu itu tetap, supaya apa yang kamu minta kepada Bapa dalam nama-Ku, diberikan-Nya kepadamu. 15:17 Inilah perintah-Ku kepadamu: Kasihilah seorang akan yang lain."

15:12 "This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

15:13 "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.

21Abis itu, Paulus putus ko pulang pi Yerusalem. Ma dia pung hati rindu ko pi lebe dolo di propinsi Makedonia deng propinsi Akaya, baru dia mau jalan tarús pi Yerusalem. Dia su pikir memang, bilang, “Lebe bae, beta pi lia orang parcaya dong di ini tampa-tampa dong dolo. Te biar karmana ju, beta musti sampe di kota Roma.” 22Ais dia suru dia pung tamán bajalan dua orang, andia Timotius deng Erastus, ko dong pi lebe dolo di Makedonia. Ma dia sandiri masi tenga lebe lama lai di propinsi Asia.

23Itu waktu, ada muncul parkara bésar di kota Efesus so'al Yesus pung Jalan Idop. 24Itu parkara pung akar bagini: di situ, ada satu tukang perak, nama Demetrius. Dia biasa bekin ruma-ruma songgo kici dari perak, ko jual kasi sang orang Efesus ko dong songgo dong pung dewi satu, nama Artemis. Tagal dia pung usaha laku karás, jadi dia pake ana bua banya sakali. Andia ko doi malele maso pi di dia. 25Ais satu kali, Demetrius kumpul ame dia pung tukang dong, deng tukang yang laen dong, ais dia omong sang dong, bilang, “Bapa-bapa, deng sodara-sodara samua! Bosong su tau, bilang, kotong pung idop jadi bae bagini ni, tagal doi banya malele dari kotong pung usaha ni. 26Ma sakarang, kotong su lia deng kotong pung mata biji sandiri, deng su dengar pake kotong pung talinga sandiri, itu gara-gara Paulus pung omong. Te dia pangaru orang banya dong, bilang, barang-barang yang kotong bekin ni, sonde ada guna apa-apa. Dia bilang, patong yang kotong bekin ni, cuma dewa-dewi omong kosong sa. Naa, bukan cuma orang di kota Efesus sa, yang dengar sang dia, ma orang di anteru propinsi Asia ju su dengar. 27Jadi dengar bae-bae, ó! Nanti kotong ni mau jadi apa lai, kalo banya orang maen iko tarús sang Paulus dong? Su tantu orang sonde mau béli kotong pung hasil karjá ni lai! Inga, ó! Sakarang, banya orang sémba sang kotong pung dewi manis, Artemis. Di anteru propinsi Asia, sampe di dunya pung huk-huk, ju orang dong datang ko puji sang dia di dia pung Ruma Songgo Pusat, andia di kotong pung kota Efesus ni. Jadi, jang sampe orang su sonde toe sang dia, ju dong su sonde mau datang di sini lai!”

28Dengar bagitu, ju dong pung hati panas memang. Ais dong batarea, bilang, “Hidup Artemis! Artemis yang manis! Kotong orang Efesus puji-puji sang Artemis!” 29Dengar orang batarea-batarea bagitu, ju orang mulai lari dari mana-mana ko pi bakumpul di situ, sampe itu kota ponu sesak deng orang dong. Ma dong samua babingung. Ju orang mulai rame-rame bekin kaco iko-iko jalan, sampe di kota pung tana lapang bésar.† Dong ada tangkap dua orang ko hela bawa pi di situ. Dong dua pung nama, Gayus deng Aristarkus. Orang dong tangkap sang dong, tagal dong dua ni, Paulus pung ana bua dari Makedonia. 30Dengar bagitu, ju Paulus mau maso pi di teng-tenga orang yang bekin kaco dong, ma orang parcaya di situ sonde kasi loos sang dia. 31Ada barapa orang bésar dari propinsi Asia yang kanál bae deng Paulus. Dong suru orang ko pi kasi tau, bilang, Paulus sonde bole maso pi di itu tana lapang, di itu orang banya yang ada mangamok tu.

32Ais di itu tana lapang bésar tu, orang mulai cari itu parkara pung asal-mula. Ada yang batarea omong kosong, bilang, “Bagini!” Yang laen ba'eki, bilang, “Bagitu!” Padahal, banya ju yang sonde tau itu parkara pung dudu-badiri karmana. Dong tu, cuma iko-iko rame sa. 33Di situ ju ada orang Yahudi dong yang mulai taku, tagal dong pikir, bilang, jang-jangan orang banya dong nanti tudu orang Yahudi jadi ini parkara pung tukang kipas dong. Andia ko dong sorong satu orang pi muka ko jadi dong pung jubir. Itu orang pung nama, Aleksander. Dong minta ko dia bela sang dong, bilang, itu parkara, bukan orang Yahudi pung gara-gara. Ais Aleksander angka dia pung tangan ko dong jang ribut. Ais dia coba omong ko bela orang Yahudi dong. 34Ma waktu dong tau kalo dia tu, orang Yahudi, ju dong batarea tamba karás lai, bilang, “Hidup Artemis! Artemis yang manis! Kotong orang Efesus puji-puji sang Artemis!” Dong batarea-batarea bagitu, sampe dua jam.

35-36Ais ju, kapala pamarenta dari kota Efesus badiri ko omong kasi tanáng itu orang dong. Dia omong, bilang, “Kaka-adi dong dari kota Efesus! Samua orang su tau, bilang, kotong pung dewi Artemis pung model yang asli jato turun dari langit, ko datang di kotong sini. Jadi, kotong orang Efesus ni, yang piara bae-bae sang dia. Sonde ada orang yang bisa cabu kotong pung hak jaga, tagal itu su jadi sajara yang samua orang su tau memang. Jadi, akurang ko bosong batarea bagini? Biar orang omong kosong iko dong pung mau, ma bosong sonde usa mangamok sambarang bagini! 37Bosong hela bawa ini orang dua di sini, sama ke dong ada bekin jahat. Padahal dong sonde curi apa-apa dari Artemis pung Ruma Songgo Pusat. Dong ju sonde omong kasi jato kotong pung dewi pung nama bae. Jadi bosong mau lempar sala apa pi sang dong? 38Inga bae-bae, ó! Kotong ada pung tampa urus parkara. Orang yang urus parkara ju ada tunggu. Jadi, kalo Demetrius dong mau bekin parkara, na, dong musti iko dia pung atoran, ko bawa itu parkara pi di tampa urus parkara. 39Deng kalo ada hal laen yang dong mau angka, biar ko dong pi ba'ator deng tua-tua adat dong. 40Jang sampe pamarenta Roma mau lempar sala sang kotong, tagal ini kaco-balo ni. Kalo dong mau cari tau dia pung dudu-badiri, na, kotong mau manyao apa co? Te ini parkara sonde ada dia pung ujung-pohon na!” 41Omong abis bagitu, ju itu bos suru ko samua orang dong bubar. Ju dong bubar memang.

19:21 When these things were accomplished, Paul purposed in the Spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."

19:22 So he sent into Macedonia two of those who ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, but he himself stayed in Asia for a time.

19:23 And about that time there arose a great commotion about the Way.

19:24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Diana, brought no small profit to the craftsmen.

19:25 He called them together with the workers of similar occupation, and said: "Men, you know that we have our prosperity by this trade.

19:26 "Moreover you see and hear that not only at Ephesus, but throughout almost all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are not gods which are made with hands.

19:27 "So not only is this trade of ours in danger of falling into disrepute, but also the temple of the great goddess Diana may be despised and her magnificence destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worship."

19:28 Now when they heard [this], they were full of wrath and cried out, saying, "Great [is] Diana of the Ephesians!"

19:29 So the whole city was filled with confusion, and rushed into the theater with one accord, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, Paul's travel companions.

19:30 And when Paul wanted to go in to the people, the disciples would not allow him.

19:31 Then some of the officials of Asia, who were his friends, sent to him pleading that he would not venture into the theater.

19:32 Some therefore cried one thing and some another, for the assembly was confused, and most of them did not know why they had come together.

19:33 And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander motioned with his hand, and wanted to make his defense to the people.

19:34 But when they found out that he was a Jew, all with one voice cried out for about two hours, "Great [is] Diana of the Ephesians!"

19:35 And when the city clerk had quieted the crowd, he said: "Men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple guardian of the great goddess Diana, and of the [image] which fell down from Zeus?

19:36 "Therefore, since these things cannot be denied, you ought to be quiet and do nothing rashly.

19:37 "For you have brought these men here who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of your goddess.

19:38 "Therefore, if Demetrius and his fellow craftsmen have a case against anyone, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. Let them bring charges against one another.

19:39 "But if you have any other inquiry to make, it shall be determined in the lawful assembly.

19:40 "For we are in danger of being called in question for today's uproar, there being no reason which we may give to account for this disorderly gathering."

19:41 And when he had said these things, he dismissed the assembly.
