Acts 10
1 And there was a certain man in Caesarea, whose name was Cornelius, a centurion of the regiment called the Italian.
Kwakange kune umwewo murume muKesariya wainzi Koneriyo, mukuru wezana wehondo yainzi yeItaria,
2 And he was righteous, and feared God, he and all his house; and he did much alms among the people, and prayed to God at all times.
wakazvipira uye anotya Mwari pamwe neimba yake yese, waiita mabasa erudo mazhinji kuvanhu, nekunyengetera kuna Mwari nguva yese;
3 This man distinctly saw, in a vision, about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of God, who came in to him and said to him: Cornelius!
akaona muchiratidzo pachena, neawa rinenge repfumbamwe rezuva, mutumwa waMwari achipinda kwaari, achiti kwaari: Koneriyo!
4 And he looked upon him, and was afraid; and he said: What, my Lord? And the angel said to him: Thy prayers and thy alms have come up in remembrance before God.
Zvino wakati amutarisisa akatya, akati: Chii, Ishe? Zvino akati kwaari: Minyengetero yako nemabasa ako erudo zvakwira kuva chirangaridzo pamberi paMwari.
5 And now, send men to the city of Joppa, and bring Simon who is called Cephas.
Zvino ikozvino tuma varume kuJopa, udane Simoni anonzi Petro;
6 Lo, he lodgeth in the house of Simon the tanner, which is by the side of the sea.
anogara neumwe Simoni musuki wematehwe, imba yake iri parutivi rwegungwa; iye achakuudza zvaunofanira kuita.
7 And when the angel that talked with him was gone, he called two of his household, and a soldier who feared God and was obedient to him.
Zvino mutumwa wakange ataura naKoneriyo wakati abva, wakadana vaviri vevaranda vake vemumba nemurwi wakatendeka pane vaimumirira nguva dzese,
8 And he related to them all that he had seen, and sent them to Joppa.
zvino wakati arondedzera zvinhu zvese kwavari, akavatuma kuJopa.
9 And the next day, as they travelled the road and approached the city, Simon ascended the roof to pray, at the sixth hour.
Zvino chifume ivo vachiri kufamba voswedera muguta, Petro wakakwira pamusoro pedenga reimba kunonyengetera, neawa rinenge rechitanhatu.
10 And he became hungry, and desired to eat. And while they were providing for him, he fell into a trance.
Akava nenzara kwazvo, akashuva kudya; asi ivo vakati vachagadzirira, chiyeverwa chikamuwira;
11 And he saw the heavens opened, and a certain vessel fastened at the four corners, and it was like a great sheet; and it descended from heaven to the a earth.
ndokuona denga rakazaruka, neumwe mudziyo uchiburukira kwaari, semucheka mukuru, wakasungwa makona mana uchiburusirwa pasi.
12 And there were in it all fourfooted animals, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of heaven.
Maiva nemhuka dzese dzemakumbo mana dzenyika nemhuka dzesango nezvinokambaira neshiri dzedenga.
13 And a voice came to him, which said: Simon, arise, slay and eat.
Zvino inzwi rikauya kwaari richiti: Simuka, Petro, baya udye.
14 And Simon said: Far be it, my Lord: for never have I eaten any thing unclean and polluted.
Asi Petro wakati: Aiwa kwete, Ishe; nokuti handina kutongodya chero chinhu chisakachena kana chine tsvina.
15 And again the second time, there was a voice to him: What God hath cleansed, make thou not unclean.
Zvino inzwi rikauyazve kwaari rwechipiri richiti: Mwari chaanatsa, iwe usati chakasviba.
16 And this was done three times; and the vessel was taken up to heaven.
Zvino izvi zvakaitwa kusvikira katatu; mudziyo ndokukwidzwazve kudenga.
17 And while Simon was wondering with himself, what the vision he had seen could denote, the men who were sent by Cornelius arrived; and they inquired for the house in which Simon lodged, and came and stood at the gate of the court.
Zvino Petro wakati achakashamiswa maari kuti chiratidzo chaakange aona chairevei, zvino tarira, varume vakange vatumwa kubva kuna Koneriyo, vabvunza imba yaSimoni, vakamira pasuwo,
18 And there they called out, and asked if Simon who is called Cephas lodged there?
vakadanidzira vachibvunza kana Simoni, anonzi Petro achigarapo.
19 And while Simon was reflecting on the vision, the Spirit said to him: Lo, three men are inquiring for thee.
Zvino Petro achafunga nezvechiratidzo, Mweya wakati kwaari: Tarira, varume vatatu vanokutsvaka.
20 Arise, go down, and accompany them; and let not thy mind hesitate, for I have sent them.
Naizvozvo simuka uburuke, uende navo usiri asina chokwadi nechinhu; nokuti ndini ndavatuma.
21 Then Simon went down to the men, and said to them: I am he for whom ye inquire: what is the cause for which ye have come?
Petro ndokuburukira kuvarume vakange vatumwa kwaari kubva kuna Koneriyo, akati: Tarirai, ndini wamunotsvaka; chikonzeroi chamauyira?
22 They say to him: A certain man whose name is Cornelius, a centurion fearing God, and of whom all the people of the Jews bear good report, was told in vision, by a holy angel, to send and bring thee to his house, that he might hear discourse from thee.
Zvino vakati: Koneriyo mukuru wezana, murume wakarurama neanotya Mwari, anopupurirwa nerudzi rwese rweVaJudha, wakayambirwa naMwari nemutumwa mutsvene kuti akudanirei kumba kwake, uye kuti anzwe mashoko kwamuri.
23 And Simon led them in, and entertained them where he lodged. And the following day, he arose, departed, and went with them: and some of the brethren of Joppa also went with them.
Ipapo akavadanira mukati, akavagarisapo. Zvino chifume Petro wakabuda akaenda navo, nedzimwe dzehama dzaibva paJopa dzikamuperekedza.
24 And the next day, they entered Caesarea. And Cornelius was expecting them: and all the kindred of his family, and also such intimate friends as he had, were assembled with him.
Zvino chifume vapinda Kesariya. NaKoneriyo wakange akavamirira, uye akadanira pamwe chete hama dzake neshamwari dzepedo.
25 And as Simon came up, Cornelius met him, and fell down worshipping at his feet.
Zvino zvakaitika kuti Petro apinda, Koneriyo akamuchingamidza, akawira patsoka dzake, akamunamata.
26 And Simon raised him up, and said to him: Arise; I also am a man.
Asi Petro wakamusimudza, achiti: Simuka; ini pachangu ndiri munhuwo.
27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and found that many had come there.
Zvino wakati achataura naye akapinda, akawana vazhinji vakaungana,
28 And he said to them: Ye know, that it is not lawful for a Jewish man, to associate with an alien who is not of his race: but God hath showed me, that I should not say of any one, that he is defiled or unclean.
ndokuti kwavari: Imwi munoziva kuti hazvisi pamutemo kumurume ari muJudha kufambidzana kana kuuya kumunhu werumwe rudzi; asi Mwari wandiratidza kuti ndirege kuti munhu haana kunaka kana kuchena;
29 Therefore I came readily, when ye sent for me. But, I ask you, for what cause did ye send for me?
naizvozvowo ndauya ndisingapikisi zvandangodanwa. Naizvozvo ndinobvunza, kuti mandidanira chinangwai?
30 And Cornelius said to him: It is four days ago, that, lo, I was fasting; and at the ninth hour, while I was praying in my house, a certain man stood before me, clothed in white,
Koneriyo ndokuti: Mazuva mana apfuura kusvikira paawa rino ndakange ndichitsanya, neawa repfumbamwe ndakange ndichinyengetera mumba mangu; zvino tarira, murume wakamira pamberi pangu ane nguvo dzinopenya,
31 and said to me: Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and there remembrance of thy alms before God.
ndokuti: Koneriyo, munyengetero wako wanzwikwa, nemabasa ako erudo arangarirwa pamberi paMwari.
32 But send to the city of Joppa, and bring Simon who is called Cephas: lo, he lodgeth in the house of Simon the tanner, which is by the side of the sea. And he will come and converse with thee.
Tumira naizvozvo kuJopa, uye udane Simoni anonzi Petro; iye anogara mumba maSimoni musuki wematehwe parutivi rwegungwa; iye kana auya achataura newe.
33 And immediately I sent to thee; and thou hast done well to come: and lo, we are all of us before thee, and desirous to hear whatever is commanded thee from God.
Naizvozvo pakarepo ndatuma kwamuri; zvino imwi maita zvakanaka kuti mauya. Naizvozvo ikozvino tese tiripo pamberi paMwari, kuti tinzwe zvinhu zvese zvamakarairwa naIshe.
34 And Simon opened his mouth, and said: Truly I discover that God is no respecter of persons.
Zvino Petro wakashamisa muromo, akati: Zvirokwazvo ndinonzwisisa kuti Mwari haasi musaruri wevanhu;
35 but, among all the nations, he who feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is acceptable with him.
asi parudzi rupi nerupi uyo anomutya achiita kururama anogamuchirika kwaari.
36 For this is the word, which he sent to the sons of Israel, announcing to them peace and rest by Jesus Messiah, He is Lord of all;
Shoko raakatuma kuvana vaIsraeri achiparidza rugare naJesu Kristu (iye ndiIshe wevese).
37 and ye also know the word, which was in all Judaea, which commenced from Galilee, after the baptism that John preached,
Imwi munoziva shoko rakaitika paJudhiya rese, kutanga paGarirea, shure kwerubhabhatidzo Johwani rwaakaparidza;
38 concerning Jesus, who was of Nazareth, whom God anointed with the Holy Spirit and with power. And he it was, who went about and healed those that were suffering from evil, because God was with him.
raJesu weNazareta, kuti Mwari wakamuzodza sei neMweya Mutsvene nesimba, waipfuura, achiita zvakanaka uye achiporesa vese vakamanikidzwa nadhiabhorosi, nokuti Mwari waiva naye.
39 And we are his witnesses, as to whatever he did in all the region of Judaea and in Jerusalem. This same person the Jews hanged on a tree, and slew him.
Nesu tiri zvapupu zvezvinhu zvese zvaakaita, zvese munyika yeVaJudha nemuJerusarema; iye wavakauraya, nekuremberedza pamuti.
40 And him did God raise up, on the third day; and caused him to be seen with naked eyes;
Iye Mwari waakamutsa nezuva retatu, akamupa kuti aonekwe,
41 not indeed by all the people, but by us, who were chosen of God to be his witnesses, and who ate and drank with him after his resurrection from the dead.
kwete kuvanhu vese, asi kuzvapupu zvakagara zvasarudzwa naMwari, kwatiri taidya nekunwa naye, mushure mekunge amuka kubva kuvakafa.
42 And he commanded us to proclaim and testify to the people, that he is appointed of God to be judge of the living and of the dead.
Zvino wakatiraira kuti tiparidze kuvanhu, nekupupura kwazvo kuti ndiye wakagadzwa naMwari kuva mutongi wevapenyu nevakafa.
43 And of him all the prophets testify, that whoever believeth in his name, will receive remission of sins.
Vaporofita vese vanopupura nezvake, kuti nezita rake ani nani anotenda maari achagamuchira kanganwiro yezvivi.
44 And while Simon was uttering these things, the Holy Spirit overshadowed all them that were hearing the word.
Petro wakati achataura mashoko awa, Mweya Mutsvene wakaburukira pamusoro pavo vese vakanzwa shoko.
45 And the circumcised brethren who came with him, were amazed and astonished, that the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out upon the Gentiles also.
Zvino vekudzingiswa vaitenda vakashamisika, vese vakange vauya naPetro, nokuti nepamusoro pevahedheni chipo cheMweya Mutsvene chakange chadururwa;
46 For they heard them speak with diverse tongues, and magnify God.
nokuti vakavanzwa vachitaura nendimi, vachikudza Mwari. Ipapo Petro akapindura akati:
47 And Simon said: Can any one forbid water, that those should not be baptized, they who have received, lo, the Holy Spirit, as well as we?
Kune munhu anogona kurambidza mvura here, kuti ava vasabhabhatidzwa, vakagamuchira Mweya Mutsvene sesuwo?
48 Then he commanded them to be baptized in the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah. And they requested him to remain with them some days.
Zvino akaraira kuti vabhabhatidzwe muzita raIshe. Ipapo vakamukumbira kuti agare mamwe mazuva.
