Acts 20
1 After the uproar had ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, took leave of them, and departed to go into Macedonia.
Payiperiti ndewu ilii Paulu kawashemiti pamwera waumini walii, kawagambira visoweru vya kawayupa moyu. Shakapanu kawagambira kwahere, kagenda Makedoniya.
2 When he had gone through those parts and had encouraged them with many words, he came into Greece.
Kapitiriti Seemu zya isi zilii kankuwayupa wantu moyu kwa visoweru vitangala. Shakapanu kasokiti Akaya.
3 When he had spent three months there, and a plot was made against him by Jews as he was about to set sail for Syria, he determined to return through Macedonia.
Kweni katamiti kwa myezi mitatu. Pakaweriti kankulitanda kugenda Siriya, kayambuliti handa Wayawudi waweriti wankumtendera mpangu mdoda, hangu kaamuwiti kuwuya kwa kupitira Makedoniya
4 These accompanied him as far as Asia: Sopater of Beroea, Aristarchus and Secundus of the Thessalonians, Gaius of Derbe, Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus of Asia.
Sopata, mwana gwa Piru, kulawa Beroya, wagenditi pamwera nayomberi, viraa Alisitariku na Sekundi kulawa Tesaloniki, Gayu kulawa Deribi, Timotewu, Tukiku na Tirofimu, kulawa mkowa gwa Asiya, na Timotewu
5 But these had gone ahead, and were waiting for us at Troas.
Awa watulonguliti na kutuhepera Trowa kulii.
6 We sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and came to them at Troas in five days, where we stayed seven days.
Tukweniti meli kulawa Filipi payipititi sikukuwi ya Mabumunda gankali kulekera simika, na pa mashaka mhanu shakapanu tuliwoniti pamwera Trowa kulii. Aku tulikaliti kwa shipindi sha lijuma limu.
7 On the first day of the week, when the disciples were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day; and continued his speech until midnight.
Jumamosi pashimii tuliwoniti tumegi libumunda. Toziya Paulu kafiriti kuwuka shirawu yakuwi, kawabweliriti wantu na kwendeleya kuyowera nawomberi mpaka pashiru pa ligonu.
8 There were many lights in the upper room where we were gathered together.
Vikoloboyi vivuwa viweriti viyaka mmpindi mushindambi Mshumba pawaweriti wankuliwona.
9 A certain young man named Eutychus sat in the window, weighed down with deep sleep. As Paul spoke still longer, being weighed down by his sleep, he fell down from the third floor and was taken up dead.
Mndemba yumu litawu lyakuwi Eutuku kaweriti kalivaga palidilisha shipindi Paulu pakaweriti kankwendereya kubwera, Eutuku kanjiti kusizira shididini shididini mpaka mbota zimpata, kapatuka pasi kulawa mgolofa ya tatu. Wamlopoziya kahowiti kala.
10 Paul went down and fell upon him, and embracing him said, “Don’t be troubled, for his life is in him.”
Kumbiti Paulu kasulukiti pasi, kasuntamala, kamkisikira na kulonga “Namwina lyoga mana kwana ukomu wankali mngati mwakuwi.”
11 When he had gone up, had broken bread and eaten, and had talked with them a long while, even until break of day, he departed.
Shakapanu kakwena kayi mligolofa, kalimega libumunda, kaliya. Kendeleyiti kubwera kwa shipindi shivuwa mpaka mandawira putiputi, shakapanu kawuka.
12 They brought the boy in alive, and were greatly comforted.
Wantu walii wamtoliti mndemba ulii ukaya pakiwa mkomu nakamu. Wapata shinyamaliru shikulu.
13 But we, going ahead to the ship, set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there; for he had so arranged, intending himself to go by land.
Twenga tukweniti meli tulonguliriti kugenda Asu kweni twangamtoliti Paulu. Katugambiriti tutendi ntambu ayi, mana kafiriti kwiza aku kwa kupitira isi iyuma.
14 When he met us at Assos, we took him aboard and came to Mitylene.
Shipindi pakatuwoniti Asu kulii, tumkweniziya mmeli, tugenda Mituleni.
15 Sailing from there, we came the following day opposite Chios. The next day we touched at Samos and stayed at Trogyllium, and the day after we came to Miletus.
Kulawa aku tugenditi tusoka kiu shirawu yakuwi. Lishaka lya pili, tusulusiyiti nanga Samu na shirawu yakuwi tusokiti Miletu.
16 For Paul had determined to sail past Ephesus, that he might not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hastening, if it were possible for him, to be in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.
Paulu kaweriti kafira kwendeleya na mwanja kwa meli pota kuwuyira Efesu su nakakawalira nentu aku Asiya. Kaweriti na kanongola ya kusoka Yerusalemu kwa sikukuwi ya Pentekosti handa iwezikana.
17 From Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called to himself the elders of the assembly.
Kulawa Miletu Paulu katumiti ujumbi Efesu, kwa wazewi wa shipinga sha yawamjimira Yesu waliwoni nayomberi.
18 When they had come to him, he said to them, “You yourselves know, from the first day that I set foot in Asia, how I was with you all the time,
Pawawuyiti kwakuwi, kawagambiriti, “Muvimana ntambu yandamiti na mwenga pashiru poseri kwanjira mulishaka lilii lya kwanja pansokiti Asiya.
19 serving the Lord with all humility, with many tears, and with trials which happened to me by the plots of the Jews;
Muvimana ntambu yanumtenderiti Mtuwa kwa unanaga woseri, kwa masozi na maholu gambatiti kulawirana na mipangu ya ufyangu ya Wayawudi.
20 how I didn’t shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, teaching you publicly and from house to house,
Muvimana handa hapeni nzindi ata shididini kuwabwelera paweru na mkaya mwamwennga na kuwafundeni shoseri shakuwatangitileni.
21 testifying both to Jews and to Greeks repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus.
Nuwaberiziya mwawoseri Wayawudi, viraa na wantu yawawera ndiri Wayawudi wamgalambukiri Mlungu na kuwera na njimiru mu Mtuwa gwetu Yesu.
22 Now, behold, I go bound by the Spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there;
Na vinu, mumpikinireni! Neni, payiwera nankumjimira Rohu, nunkugenda Yerusalemu pota kuvimana yagafira kumpata aku.
23 except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions wait for me.
Shanushimana hera ndo handa Rohu Mnanagala kankunanguziya pakati pa kila lushi handa shifungu na ntabiku ndo vyanguhepera.
24 But these things don’t count; nor do I hold my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to fully testify to the Good News of the grace of God.
Kumbiti, nankuukwisa ukomu wangu kuwera shintu nentu kwaneni mladi hera malili untumintumi wangu na lihengu lilii lyakanupiti Mtuwa Yesu nulitendi, yani nankuziyi Shisoweru Shiwagira sha manemu ga Mlungu.
25 “Now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I went about preaching God’s Kingdom, will see my face no more.
“Mbita muwamu mweni woseri pabwera ufalumi wa Mlungu. Na vinu, nuvimana kwahera ata yumu gwenu hakamoni kayi.
26 Therefore I testify to you today that I am clean from the blood of all men,
Hangu, leru ayi nankuwalanguziya nakamu handa payilawira kahowa yumu gwenu, neni nahera lawama yoseri.
27 for I didn’t shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.
Toziya hapeni nzindi ata padidini kuwabwelerani nfiru yoseri ya Mlungu.
28 Take heed, therefore, to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the assembly of the Lord and God which he purchased with his own blood.
Mulikali weri maweni, mshiloleri shipinga shilii sheni Rohu Mnanagala kawatula mwenga muweri walelwa wakuwi. Mushiloli shipinga sha wantu yawamjimira Yesu, Mlungu yakashihemeriti kwa mwazi gwa mwana gwakuwi.
29 For I know that after my departure, vicious wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
Nuvimana handa pambuka kala neni wamaminyi wakalipa hawawingilirani, na hapeni waweri na lusungu kwa shipinga ashi.
30 Men will arise from among your own selves, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.
Ata kulawa muwamu mwenu hawalawili wantu weni hantakuli vitwatira vya kupyota su kuwahowiziya wantu na kuwatenda wawafati womberi hera.
31 Therefore watch, remembering that for a period of three years I didn’t cease to admonish everyone night and day with tears.
Hangu muweri masu pamlihola handa kwa shipindi sha vinja vitatu, pashiru na paliwala ndoka ndiri kumubera kila yumu gwenu kwa masozi.
32 Now, brothers, I entrust you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
“Vinu nankuwatula mumawoku ga Mlungu, kwa shisoweru sha manemu gakuwi, ndosheni shiweza kuwanyawa mwenga na kuwapanana uhala pamuhera nawomberi woseri yawapungitwi.
33 I coveted no one’s silver, gold, or clothing.
Neni nfirandiri ata mala yimu shuma, wala zaabu, wala nguwu za muntu yoseri.
34 You yourselves know that these hands served my necessities, and those who were with me.
Muvimana maweni handa ntenda lihengu kwa mawoku gangu namweni su mbati shakuwatanga na sha namweni.
35 In all things I gave you an example, that so laboring you ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
Namweri nankuwayupani mashaka goseri mfanu handa kwa kutenda lihengu shiasi ashi tufiruwa kuwatanga walii wahera likakala patulihola visoweru vya Mtuwa Yesu mweni, ‘Mbaka nentu kulavia kuliku kuyanga.’”
36 When he had spoken these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
Pa katakuliti kala aga, Paulu kasuntamaliti pamuhera nawomberi woseri, kamluwa Mlungu.
37 They all wept freely, and fell on Paul’s neck and kissed him,
Woseri waweriti wankulira, na kumgambira Paulu kwahere kwa kumkisikira na kumunonera.
38 sorrowing most of all because of the word which he had spoken, that they should see his face no more. Then they accompanied him to the ship.
Shawaweriti na maholu nashu nentu shiweriti showeru shakashitakuliti handa hapeni wamoni kayi. Su, wampeleka mpaka kumeli.
