Acts 15
1 Some men came down from Judea and taught the brothers, “Unless you are circumcised after the custom of Moses, you can’t be saved.”
Ŵaiche ŵandu ŵane ku Antiokia kutyochela ku Yudea ni kutanda kwajiganya achalongo ŵala achitiji, “Iŵaga ngammumbala malinga ni chisyoŵelo chiŵalamwile che Musa, ngankombola kukulupuka.”
2 Therefore when Paul and Barnabas had no small discord and discussion with them, they appointed Paul, Barnabas, and some others of them to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question.
Che Paolo ni che Banaba ŵakanilanaga nawo yankati ngani jo, nipele ŵaasagwile che Paolo ni che Banaba pamo ni mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵampepe ŵa ku Antiokia ko ajaulangane kwa achinduna ni achachekulu ku Yelusalemu kukukunguluchila ngani jo.
3 They, being sent on their way by the assembly, passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles. They caused great joy to all the brothers.
Nipele mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵala ŵaalanjile, ni ŵanyawo ŵapite ku Foinike ni ku Samalia achisalaga yankati ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi iŵatite pakwagalauchila Akunnungu. Ni ngani jo jaasengwasisye nnope ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito.
4 When they had come to Jerusalem, they were received by the assembly and the apostles and the elders, and they reported everything that God had done with them.
Paŵaiche ku Yelusalemu, mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ni achinduna ni achachekulu ŵaapochele ŵanyawo, nombewo ŵaasalile yanayose iŵaitesile Akunnungu pamo nawo.
5 But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up, saying, “It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.”
Ni ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵane ŵa mpingo wa Mafalisayo ŵajimi ni kuti, “Iŵajilwe ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi kwaumbasya ni kwajiganya kugakamulichisya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa.”
6 The apostles and the elders were gathered together to see about this matter.
Nipele achinduna ni achachekulu ŵasongangene kuti asosesose yankati liloŵe lyo.
7 When there had been much discussion, Peter rose up and said to them, “Brothers, you know that a good while ago God made a choice among you that by my mouth the nations should hear the word of the Good News and believe.
Paŵapundaga kuusyausyana, che Petulo ŵajimi ni kuti, “Achalongo achinjangu, mwachinsyene nkumanyilila kuti moŵa gagapite Akunnungu yanonyele kuusagula une pasikati jenu nalichile Ngani Jambone kwa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, kuti apilikane ni kukulupilila.
8 God, who knows the heart, testified about them, giving them the Holy Spirit, just like he did to us.
Nombe Akunnungu ŵakujimanyilila mitima ja ŵandu wose, ŵalosisye pangasisa kuti ŵapochele pakwapa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu mpela iŵatite pakutupa uweji.
9 He made no distinction between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith.
Nganatenda lusagu pasikati jetu ni ŵanyawo, ŵajiswejesye mitima jao ligongo ŵakulupilile.
10 Now therefore why do you tempt God, that you should put a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
Sambano, ana ligongo chi nkwalinga Akunnungu? Ana kwa chichi nkulinga kwatwika ŵakulijiganya ŵala misigo jakutopa janganakombola kutwichila achambuje ŵetu natamuno uweji?
11 But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, just as they are.”
Ikaŵaga yeleyo, nambo tukukulupilila kuti tutukulupuswe ni upile wa Ambuje Che Yesu, mpela ŵanyawo yakuti pakukulupilila.”
12 All the multitude kept silence, and they listened to Barnabas and Paul reporting what signs and wonders God had done among the nations through them.
Mpingo wose wamyalele ni kwapilikanila che Banaba ni che Paolo ŵaŵaliji nkwatanjila imanyisyo ni yakusimonjeka yose yaitesile Akunnungu ni makono gao mwa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi.
13 After they were silent, James answered, “Brothers, listen to me.
Paŵamyalele, ŵatandite kuŵecheta che Yakobo kuti, “Achalongo achinjangu, mumbilikanile,
14 Simeon has reported how God first visited the nations to take out of them a people for his name.
Che Simoni jwakuŵilanjikwa che Petulo atusalile iŵatite Akunnungu kundanda pakwalola ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ni kwasagula ŵampepe mwa ŵelewo kuti aŵeje ŵao.
15 This agrees with the words of the prophets. As it is written,
Chelechi chikwilana ni maloŵe ga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu mpela Malembelo ga Akunnungu yagakuti pakusala,
16 ‘After these things I will return. I will again build the tabernacle of David, which has fallen. I will again build its ruins. I will set it up
Akunnungu akuti ‘Pakumala yelei chinjiuja, ni kutaŵa sooni lisakasa li che Daudi lilyagwile, chinjikolosya masame gakwe ni kutaŵa sooni.
17 that the rest of men may seek after the Lord: all the Gentiles who are called by my name, says the Lord, who does all these things.’
Pelepo ŵandu ŵaŵasigele wose, ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi wose unaŵilasile aŵeje ŵandu ŵangu chiŵasose Ambuje.
Ambuje ni iyakuti pakusala, ŵelewo ni ŵaŵatesile yelei imanyiche chitandile kalakala ko.’” (aiōn g165)
19 Therefore my judgment is that we don’t trouble those from among the Gentiles who turn to God,
Che Yakobo ŵapundile kuŵecheta, “Une ngulamula kuti, tukaasakalisya ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵakwagalauchila Akunnungu.
20 but that we write to them that they abstain from the pollution of idols, from sexual immorality, from what is strangled, and from blood.
Nambo twalembele chikalata ni kwasalila kuti analye yakulya yaitajikwe mbopesi ku inyago, aleche chikululu ni akalya inyama yakupopotola ni kuleka kulya miasi.
21 For Moses from generations of old has in every city those who preach him, being read in the synagogues every Sabbath.”
Pakuŵa chitandile kalakala Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa galiji nkusyomekwa moŵa gose mmajumba ga kupopelela pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila lyalili lyose ni kulalichilwa mmisi jajili jose.”
22 Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole assembly, to choose men out of their company, and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas: Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, chief men among the brothers.
Nipele, achinduna ni achachekulu pamo ni mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito wose ŵa ku Yelusalemu ŵalamwile kwasagula ŵandu ŵampepe mwa achinsyene pe ni kwalajisya ku Antiokia pamo ni che Paolo ni che Banaba. Nipele ŵaasagwile che Yuda pane akummilanga che Balisaba ni che Sila, ŵanyawo ŵaliji ilongola mwa ŵa ŵandu ŵaŵankulupilile Kilisito.
23 They wrote these things by their hand: “The apostles, the elders, and the brothers, to the brothers who are of the Gentiles in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: greetings.
Nipele ŵapele chikalata chichalembekwe yele, “Uweji achinduna ni achachekulu, achalongo achinjenu, tukunkomasya mwanya achalongo achinjetu ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵa Ku Antiokia ni ku Silia ni ku Kilikia.
24 Because we have heard that some who went out from us have troubled you with words, unsettling your souls, saying, ‘You must be circumcised and keep the law,’ to whom we gave no commandment;
Tupilikene kuti ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵatyosile kukwetu uwe ŵansakalisye ŵanyamwe ni kuntaga lipamba mitima jenu kwa maloŵe gao. Nambo ŵanyawo nganitwatuma kose.
25 it seemed good to us, having come to one accord, to choose out men and send them to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
Nipele, tujilene kwa pamo kwasagula ŵandu ŵampepe ni kwatuma kukwenu pamo ni ŵakunonyelwa ŵetu che Banaba ni che Paolo,
26 men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
ŵandu ŵautyosisye umi wao kwaligongo lya masengo ga Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito.
27 We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who themselves will also tell you the same things by word of mouth.
Nipele, twatumile che Yuda ni che Sila kukwenu, ŵele ŵanyawo chansalile itulembile yo kwa kang'wa syao.
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay no greater burden on you than these necessary things:
Pakuŵa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu pamo ni uweji tujitichisye kuti tukaatwika nsigo wine wakutopela kupunda ayi inkusachilwa kuimanyilila.
29 that you abstain from things sacrificed to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality, from which if you keep yourselves, it will be well with you. Farewell.”
Nkalya yakulya yaitajikwe mbopesi ku inyago ni nkalya miasi ni nkalya nyama ja inyama yakupopotola ni nneche chikululu. Chintende yambone naga chintende yeleyo, ntame kwa chitendewele.”
30 So, when they were sent off, they came to Antioch. Having gathered the multitude together, they delivered the letter.
Paŵalanjile, ŵanyawo ŵatyosile ku Yelusalemu ni kutuluchila ku Antiokia, kwele ŵauŵilasile pamo mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito wose, ni kwapa chikalata chila.
31 When they had read it, they rejoiced over the encouragement.
Ni paŵachisyomile chikalata chila, ŵasangalele kwannope ligongo maloŵe gakwe gaatulesye mitima.
32 Judas and Silas, also being prophets themselves, encouraged the brothers with many words and strengthened them.
Che Yuda ni che Sila ŵaŵaliji ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu, ŵaajamwiche achalongo kwa maloŵe gamajinji ni kwalimbisya ŵandu ŵakukulupilila.
33 After they had spent some time there, they were dismissed in peace from the brothers to the apostles.
Paŵatemi moŵa gampepe ku Antiokia, ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵaalanjile ajaulangane kwa chitendewele, kuuja kwa ŵaŵatumile ŵala.
Nambo che Sila ŵasachile kusigala.
35 But Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
Che Paolo ni che Banaba ŵasigele ku Antiokia kwa moŵa, achijiganyaga ni kulalichila Liloŵe lya Ambuje pamo ni ŵandu ŵane.
36 After some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let’s return now and visit our brothers in every city in which we proclaimed the word of the Lord, to see how they are doing.”
Pagapite moŵa gampepe, che Paolo ŵansalile che Banaba, “Twende tuuje, tukaalole achinjetu ŵakunkulupilila Che Yesu ŵala ku misi jajili jose kutwalalichile Liloŵe lya Ambuje ni kulola yakuti pakwendelechela.”
37 Barnabas planned to take John, who was called Mark, with them also.
Nipele, che Banaba ŵasachile kwajigala che Yohana Maliko kuti alongane nawo.
38 But Paul didn’t think that it was a good idea to take with them someone who had withdrawn from them in Pamphylia, and didn’t go with them to do the work.
Nambo che Paolo nganasaka kulongana ni che Maliko, ligongo ŵanlesile ku Pamfilia kundanda ni nganasaka kukamulangana pa masengo gao.
39 Then the contention grew so sharp that they separated from each other. Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus,
Nipele, ŵakanilene kwannope ni kulekangana matala. Che Banaba ŵalongene ni che Maliko, ŵakwesile ngalaŵa ni kwaula ku Kupulo.
40 but Paul chose Silas and went out, being commended by the brothers to the grace of God.
Nombe che Paolo ŵansagwile che Sila, ni ŵandu ŵakwakulupilila Che Yesu ŵa pelepo ŵampopelele apegwe upile wa Ambuje ni kwaula.
41 He went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the assemblies.
Ni mu ulendo wo ŵajesile mu ilambo ya ku Silia ni ku Kilikia achalimbisyaga mipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito mu ilambo yo.
