Acts 4
1 While Peter and John were still speaking to the people, the Chief Priest, with the Officer in charge at the Temple and the Sadducees, came up to them,
A Petili na a Yowana bhalinginji nkwaalungushiyanga bhandunji, gubhaikengenenje bhakulungwanji bha bhaabhishila na bhakulungwanji bha ulinda gwa liekalu na ashi Mashadukayo.
2 much annoyed because they were teaching the people, and because, through Jesus, they were preaching the resurrection from the dead.
Ashi Mashadukayo na bha kulungwanji bha ulinda gubhaatumbalilenje kwa kaje a Petili na a Yowana, pabha bhatendanga kwajiganyanga na kwaalungushiyanga bhandunji ga yuka kwa a Yeshu ngani jitaya kuti kupali kuyuka kwa bhawilenje.
3 They arrested the Apostles and, as it was already evening, had them placed in custody till the next day.
Bhai, gubhaakamulenje na pabha yaliji tome na pilila, gubhaabhishilenje muulinda mpaka pa malabhi gakwe.
4 Many, however, of those who had heard the Apostles’ Message became believers in Christ, the number of the men alone amounting to about five thousand.
Ikabheje bhabhagwinji bhapilikenenje jene nganijo gubhakulupalienje, bhaakulupalila bhanabhalume gubhaishilenje tome na ishila elupu nng'ano.
5 The next day, a meeting of the leading men, the Councillors, and the Teachers of the Law was held in Jerusalem.
Pa malabhi gakwe, ashikalongolele bha Shiyaudi, na bhanangulungwa na bhaajiganya bha malajilo ga a Musha gubhapegwilwe na a Nnungu, gubhaimenenje ku Yelushalemu.
6 There were present Annas the High Priest, Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and all who were of High-Priestly rank.
Gubhaimenenje pamo na bhakulungwa bha bhaabhishila a Anashi, na a Kayapa, na a Yowana, na a Alekishanda, na bhananji bhalinginji bha ulongo bha bhakulungwa bha bhaabhishila.
7 They had Peter and John brought before them, and questioned them. “By what power,” they asked, “Or in whose name have men like you done this thing?”
Bhakaajimikanjeje bhantenga bhala mmujo jabhonji, gubhaabhushiyenje, “Mmanganya nshitendanga yenei kwa mashili gakeni na antumilenje gani?”
8 On this, Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, spoke as follows: “Leaders of the people and Councillors,
Penepo, a Petili bhali bhagumbelwe na Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo, gubhaalugulilenje, “Mmanganya ashikalongolele na bhanangulungwa bha pa Ishilaeli!
9 since we are on our trial to-day for a kind act done to a helpless man, and are asked in what way the man here before you has been cured,
Ibhaga lelo tubhuywanga ga shitendi sha mmbone shatendelwe mundu aaliji nangwabha jula shashite lamiywa,
10 let me tell you all and all the people of Israel, that it is by the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified and whom God raised from the dead — it is, I say, by his Name that this man stands here before you lame no longer.
bhai, mmanganya na bhandu bhowe bha pa Ishilaeli nnapinjikwanga mmumanyanje kuti, aju munduju akunnjimilanga lelo ali alamile kwa mashili ga lina lya a Yeshu Kilishitu Bhanashaleti bhumwaakomelenje munshalabha bhala, ikabheje a Nnungu gubhaayushiye.
11 Jesus is ‘the stone which, scorned by you the builders, has yet become the corner stone.’
Bhenebha ni bhatashiywe Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo kuti. ‘Liganga limwalikanilenje mmanganya mmashenganga, nnaino lishibha liganga likulu lya pandumba.’
12 And Salvation is in him alone; for there is no other Name in the whole world, given to men, to which we must look for our Salvation.”
Ntapulo ukaapatikana kuka mundu juna jojowe, pabha pashilambolyo, twangapegwa lina lika mundu juna lya kututapula.”
13 When the Council saw how boldly Peter and John spoke, and found that they were uneducated men of humble station, they were surprised, and realised that they had been companions of Jesus.
Bhanangulungwa bha lukumbi bhala, akuno bhali bhamumanyinji kuti a Petili na a Yowana bhandupe bhangashomanga, gubhakanganigwenje ga kwaabhonanga bhalibheleketanga gwangali bhoga. Gubhamumanyinji kuti pubhalinginji pamo na a Yeshu.
14 But, when they looked at the man who had been healed, standing there with them, they had nothing to say.
Ikabheje bhakammonanjeje mundu alamiywe jula ajimi nabhonji, bhangabheleketanga shindu.
15 So they ordered them out of court, and then began consulting together.
Kwa nneyo, gubhaamulishenje bhakopokanje nnukumbi mula, gubhalepekenje ashaayenenji bhalikungulukanga.
16 “What are we to do to these men?” they asked one another. “That a remarkable sign has been given through them is obvious to every one living in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.
Gubhabhuyenenje, “Twaatendanje nndi bhene bhandunjibha? Pabha kila mundu atama pa Yelushalemu pano amumanyi kuti shishitendeka shilapo na uwe tukakombola kutauka shenesho.
17 But, to prevent this thing from spreading further among the people, let us warn them not to speak in this Name any more to any one whatever.”
Ikabheje nkupinga kuibhila shene shindushi shinapunde kushuma kubhandu, twaaleyanje bhanakungulukanje na mundu jojowe ga lina lya a Yeshu.”
18 So they called the Apostles in, and ordered them not to speak or teach in the Name of Jesus.
Kwa nneyo gubhaashemilenje kabhili nkati, gubhaalimbiyenje bhanakungulukanje pa lugwinjili na wala bhanaajiganyanje bhandu ga mashili ga a Yeshu.
19 But Peter and John replied: “Whether it is right, in the sight of God, to listen to you rather than to him —
Ikabheje a Petili na a Yowana gubhaajangwilenje. “Nng'ukumulanje mwaashayenenji, shammbone shei, kumpilikanishiyanga mmanganya eu kwaapilikanishiya a Nnungu?
20 Judge for yourselves, for we cannot help speaking of what we have seen and heard.”
Pabha uwe tukaleka bheleketa ga ituibhweni na ituipilikene.”
21 However, after further warnings, the Council set them at liberty, not seeing any safe way of punishing them, because of the people, for they were all praising God for what had occurred;
Bhai bhanangulungwa bha lukumbi bhala gubhaakalipilenje kwa kaje, kungai gubhaaleshelelenje. Bhangaaukumulanga pabha bhandunji bhowe bhatendaga kwaakuyanga a Nnungu kwa ligongo lya gakoposhele gala.
22 for the man who was the subject of this miraculous cure was more than forty years old.
Mundu alamiywe jula paaliji jwa yaka ya punda makumi nsheshe.
23 After they had been set at liberty, the Apostles went to their friends and told them what the Chief Priests and the Councillors had said to them.
A Petili na a Yowana shangupe bhakaleshelelwanjeje, gubhapitengenenje kwa bhaakulupalila ajabhonji, gubhaatalashiyenje yowe ibhabhalanjilwenje na bhakulungwanji bha bhaabhishila na bhanangulungwa.
24 All who heard their story, moved by a common impulse, raised their voices to God in prayer: “O Sovereign Lord, it is you who has ‘made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and everything that is in them,’
Bhalabhonji bhakapilikananjeje genego, gubhatemingenenje pamo nikwaajuga a Nnungu bhalinkutinji, “Mmakulungwa, mmwe mpengenye shilambolyo na bhaali na yowe ili nkati jakwe!
25 And who, by the lips of our ancestor, your servant David, who spoke under the influence of the Holy Spirit, have said — ‘Why did the nations rage, And the peoples form vain designs?
Mmwe mwaatendile bhatumishi bhenu, ainabhetu a Daudi, bhabhelekete kwa mashili gaka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo kuti, ‘Kwa nndi bhailambo ina bhashishimwanga? Pakuti bhandunji bhanaatendanga lukumbi?
26 The kings of the earth set their array, And its rulers gathered together, Against the Lord and against his Christ.’
Bhapalume bha shilambolyo bhashikwishimilikanga, na bhatawala bhashiimana pamo nkwaakana Bhakulungwa na a Kilishitu bhabho.’
27 There have indeed gathered together in this city against your holy Servant Jesus, whom you has consecrated the Christ, not Herod and Pontius Pilate only, but the nations and the people of Israel besides —
“Pabha, kweli a Elode na a Pontio Pilato na bhandunji bha pa Ishilaeli na bhandunji bha ilambo ina bhaimenenje pannjini pano, nkwaakana a Yeshu Bhatumishi bhenu bha Ukonjelo bhumwaagwile.
28 Yet only to do what thou, by thy power and of thy own will, didst long ago destine to be done.
Elo, bhashinkuimananga nkupinga bhatendanje gene gumwatumbilile na panga bhukalago kwa mashili genu mmayene malinga shimwapinjile.
29 Now, therefore, O Lord, mark their threats, and enable thy servants, with all fearlessness, to tell thy Message,
Ikabheje nnaino, Mmakulungwa nnole shibhakuti kutujogoyanga. Ntushimilishe tulunguye lilobhe lyenu gwangali jogopa.
30 while thou stretchest out thy hand to heal, and causest signs and wonders to take place through the Name of thy holy Servant Jesus.”
Nngoloye nkono gwenu mwaalamyanje bhandu. Ntende ilangulo na ilapo kwa mashili ga lina lya a Yeshu Bhatumishi bhenu bha Ukonjelo.”
31 When their prayer was ended, the place in which they were assembled was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to tell God’s Message fearlessly.
Bhakamaliyanjeje kujuga Nnungu, pene pubhaimenenje pala pakutenganywaga, na bhowenji gubhagumbelwenje na Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo. Bhowe gubhapundilenje kulunguya lilobhe lya a Nnungu gwangali jogopa.
32 The whole body of those who had become believers in Christ were of one heart and mind. Not one of them claimed any of his goods as his own, but everything was held for the common use.
Nkumbi gowe gwa bhaakulupalila pugwaaliji na ntima gumo na ng'aniyo yabhonji imope. Jwakwapi akwetele shindu shakwe, ikabheje bhatendaga gabhana indu yowe ibhakwetenje.
33 The Apostles continued with great power to bear their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and God’s blessing rested upon them all abundantly.
Mitume bhatendaga kong'ondelanga kwa mashili kuyuka kwa Bhakulungwa a Yeshu, na a Nnungu gubhaapelenje mboka yaigwinji.
34 Nor was there any one in need among them, for all who were owners of land or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the sales
Akapagwaga wala mundu jumo atubhilwaga na shindu, pabha bhakwetenje migunda eu nyumba bhatendaga ushanga
35 And laid them at the Apostles’ feet; and then every one received a share in proportion to his wants.
nikwaakamuyanga mitume ela ila, nigabhanya kwa kila mundu malinga shapingaga.
36 A Levite of Cyprian birth, named Joseph, (who had received from the Apostles the additional name of ‘Barnabas’ — which means ‘The Consoler,’)
Bhashinkupagwa Bhalawi bhamo, bha ku Kipulo, lina lyabho a Yoshepu, mitume pubhaashemangaga a Bhanabha, malombolelo gakwe “Mundu ataga ntima”.
37 Sold a farm that belonged to him, and brought the money and laid it at the Apostles’ feet.
Na bhalabho bhashinkukola nngunda, gubhaushiye, gubhatolile ela ila gubhapite kamuya kwa ashimitume.
