Acts 9
1 But Saul, still breathing threats and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest
Lakini Sauli, ajhendelili kujobha fitisho ata fya kufwa kwa bhanafunzi bha Bwana, alotili kwa kuhani mbaha
2 and asked for letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
ni kun'soka barua kwa ndabha jha masinagogi oku Dameski, ili kwamba akankabha munu jha ajhe mu njela jhela ajhele n'gosi au n'dala, abhakongayi ni kubhaleta Yerusalemu.
3 As he traveled, he got close to Damascus, and suddenly a light from the sky shone around him.
Hata bho isafiri, jhatokili bho ikaribila Dameski, gafla jhikamwangasya kokuoha nuru kuh'omela kumbinguni,'
4 He fell on the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?”
ni muene akabina pasi na ap'eliki sauti jhikan'jobhela, “Sauli, Sauli, mbona ukanitesya nene?”
5 He said, “Who are you, Lord?” The Lord said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.
Sauli ajibili, bhebhe ghwe niani Bwana? Bwana akajobha, “Nene ndo Yesu jha ukanidadisya;
6 But rise up and enter into the city, then you will be told what you must do.”
Lakini jhinukayi, jhingilayi ku mjini nabhi ghwibeta kujobhighwa gha wilondeka kubhomba.
7 The men who traveled with him stood speechless, hearing the sound, but seeing no one.
Bhanu bhabhasafiri pamonga ni Sauli bhatulili kinunu, kupelekesya sauti, bhabhwelepi munu.
8 Saul arose from the ground, and when his eyes were opened, he saw no one. They led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus.
Sauli akajhinuka mu nchi na bho afunguili mihu gha muene abhwesilepi kulola khenu, bhakankamula kibhoko bhakandeta mpaka Dameski.
9 He was without sight for three days, and neither ate nor drank.
Kwa magono madatu ilolalepi, ilyalepi, wala kunywa.
10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias!” He said, “Behold, it’s me, Lord.”
Basi pajhele ni mwanafunzi Dameski lihina lya muene Anania, Bwana ajobhinaku ku lugono, “Anania.” Na ajobhili, “Langayi, jhele apa, Bwana.
11 The Lord said to him, “Arise and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judah for one named Saul, a man of Tarsus. For behold, he is praying,
“Bwana akan'jobhela, “Jhemayi ulotayi mu mtaa bhwa bhwikutibhwa Nyofu, ni mu nyumba jha Yuda na kakotelesiajhi munu kuhoma Tarso jhaikutibhwa Sauli; Maana akona isoka;
12 and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias coming in and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight.”
na ambwene mu maono munu lihina lya muene Anania ijhingila ni kumbekela mabhoko panani pa muene kwamba abhwesyahi kulola.
13 But Ananias answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your saints at Jerusalem.
Lakini Anania ajibili, “Bwana, nip'eliki habari sya munu ojhu kwa bhanu bhingi, kwa kiasi kereku abhabhombili mabhibhi bhatakatifu bha okhu Yerusalemu;
14 Here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name.”
Apa ajhe ni mamlaka kuhomakwa kuhani mbaha kun'kamula khila munu jha ikalitia lihina lya bhebhe.
15 But the Lord said to him, “Go your way, for he is my chosen vessel to bear my name before the nations and kings, and the children of Israel.
Lakini Bwana akan'jobhela, “Lotayi, kwandabha ndo khenu kiteule kwa nene alitolayi lihina lya nene mbele jha mataifa ni bhafalme ni bhana bha Israeli.
16 For I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name’s sake.”
Maana nibetakubhalasya ghaghajhe mingi ghaghibekundondeka kutesibhwa kwandabha jha lihina lya nene”.
17 Ananias departed and entered into the house. Laying his hands on him, he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”
Anania akalota, akajhingila mugati mu nyumba m'ola; akambekela mabhokho akajobha, Ndongo Sauli, Bwana Yesu, jhaakuh'omili pa njela bho wihida, anilaghisi ukabhayi kulola kabhele na ujhiagha ni Roho mtakatifu.
18 Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was baptized.
Gafla fikabina fenu pamihu pa muene kama magamba, abhwesi kulola, akajhema, akabatisibhwa akalya kyakulya ni kukabha nghofu.
19 He took food and was strengthened. Saul stayed several days with the disciples who were at Damascus.
Akatama pamonga ni bhanafunzi okhu Dameski kwa magono ghamehele.
20 Immediately in the synagogues he proclaimed the Christ, that he is the Son of God.
Wakati bhobhuobhu akan'tangasya Yesu mu masinagogi, akajobha kujha muene ndo mwana ghwa K'yara.
21 All who heard him were amazed, and said, “Isn’t this he who in Jerusalem made havoc of those who called on this name? And he had come here intending to bring them bound before the chief priests!”
Na bhoha bhabhap'eliki bhashangele ni kujobha, “Munu ojholepi jha abhaharibu bhoha bhabhakuti lihina e'le okhu Yerusalemu? Na apa ahidili kwa kusudi la kubhakhonga ni kubhap'eleka kwa Makuhani.”
22 But Saul increased more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.
Lakini Sauli abhwesibhu kuhubiri ni kubhafwanya bhayahudi bhabhetanieli Dameski bhachanganyikibhwayi ni kuthibitisha jha kujha ojho ndo Kristu.
23 When many days were fulfilled, the Jews conspired together to kill him,
Baada jha magono ghamehele, bhayahudi bhakabhomba Shauri pamonga ili bhan'komayi.
24 but their plot became known to Saul. They watched the gates both day and night that they might kill him,
Lakini mpango ghwa bhene ghwajulikene kwa Sauli. Bhakanvizila pa ndiangu pamusi ni pakilu bhabhwesyayi kun'koma.
25 but his disciples took him by night and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
Lakini bhanafunzi bha muene bhakan'tola pakilu bhakan'selesya kup'etela pa ukuta, bhakan'selesya pasi mu kapu.
26 When Saul had come to Jerusalem, he tried to join himself to the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
Ni Sauli bho afikili Yerusalemu, ajaribu kwilonga ni bhanafunzi lakini bhakajha bhiken'tila bhakajha bhikiera lepi kama ni muene mwanafunzi.
27 But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles, and declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Jesus.
Lakini Barnaba akan'tola ni kumpeleka kwa mitume, Ni kubhajhelesya jinsi Sauli kya ambwene Bwana munjele ni Bwana kyaajobhinaku, ni jinsi Sauli kyaahubiri kwa ujasiri kwa lihina lya Yesu okhu Dameski.
28 He was with them entering into Jerusalem,
Abhonene nabhu bho bhijhingila ni kupita Yerusalemu. Ajobhikwa ujasiri lihina lya Bwana Yesu,
29 preaching boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus. He spoke and disputed against the Hellenists, but they were seeking to kill him.
Akajhaihojiana ni bhayahudi bha kiyunani lakini bhakajha bhijaribu mara kwa mara kun'koma.
30 When the brothers knew it, they brought him down to Caesarea and sent him off to Tarsus.
Wakati bhalongomunu bhamanyili lijambo elu, bhakan; tola mpaka Kaisari, na bhampelekayi alolayi Tarso.
31 So the assemblies throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.
Basi likanisa lyoha mu bhuyahudi, Galilaya ni Samaria, lyajhele ni imani, na lyajengibhu, ni kugenda mu hofu jha Bwana ni faraja jha Roho mtakatifu, kanisa lyakholili kwa kujhongeseka idadi.
32 As Peter went throughout all those parts, he came down also to the saints who lived at Lydda.
Kisha atokili Petro bho isyongokasyongoka pande syoha sya mkoa, akabhaselelela bhaumini bhabhatameghe mu mji ghwa Lida.
33 There he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden for eight years because he was paralyzed.
Ambwene okhu munu mmonga jhaakutibhweghe Ainea, munu ojhu ajhele pakitanda miaka mia nane; maana apozili.
34 Peter said to him, “Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you. Get up and make your bed!” Immediately he arose.
Petro akan'jobhela, “Ainea, Yesu Kristu akuponyiayi; Jhumukayi ni ukitandikilayi kitanda kya jhobhi,” Mara akajhumuka.
35 All who lived at Lydda and in Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.
Ni bhanu bhoha bhabhatamili Lida ni Sharoni bho bhambwene munu ojhu, bhan'geukili Bwana.
36 Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which when translated means Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and acts of mercy which she did.
Pajhele ni bhanafunzi Yafa jhaakutibhweghe Tabitha, ambalyo lyatasfriribhu kama “Dorcas” N'dala ojhu ajasisi mambo kinofu ni matendo gha rehema ghaaghabhombi kwa maskini.
37 In those days, she became sick and died. When they had washed her, they laid her in an upper room.
Jhatokili katika magono aghu alwalili ni kufwa; bhobhan'safisi, bhan'kwesi kichumba kya panani ni kun'goneka.
38 As Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him, imploring him not to delay in coming to them.
Kwa vile Lida kyaajhele karibu ni Yafa na bhanafunzi bhap'eliki kwamba Petro ajhele okhu, bhabhalaghisi bhabehle kwa muene bhakan'sihi, “Hidayi kwa tete bila kuchelebhwa.”
39 Peter got up and went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper room. All the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the tunics and other garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
Petro akahema ni kubhoka pamonga ni bhene. bho afikiri, bhan'ndeitli mu kichumba kya panani. Ni bhajane bhoha bhajhemili karibu ni muene bhakajha bhilela, bhakajha bhakandasya likotili ni nghobho ambasyo Dorcas abhashonili wakati ajhe pamonga ni bhene.
40 Peter sent them all out, and knelt down and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, “Tabitha, get up!” She opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
Petro akabhabhosya bhoha kwibhala ku kichumba, akapiga magoti akas'oka, kisha akabhugeukila mb'ele, akajobha, “Tabitha, jhumukayi”. Akafungula mihu gha muene na bho ambwene Petro akatama pasi.
41 He gave her his hand and raised her up. Calling the saints and widows, he presented her alive.
Kisha Petro akampela kibhoko kya muene akanjinula, na bho abhakutili bhaamini ni bhajane, akabhakabidhi kwa bhene ajhe hai.
42 This became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.
Lijambo e'lu lyamanyikene Yafa jhioha, ni bhanu bhingi bhakamwamini Bwana.
43 He stayed many days in Joppa with a tanner named Simon.
Jhatokili Petro atamili magono mingi Yafa pamonga ni munu jhaakutibheghe Simoni, n'tengenesya ngozi.
