Acts 1
1 The first book I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
Ikhitabu ikhya khatali nikhyandikhe, Theofilo, vunijova goni Yesu uvatengwile ukhuvomba nu khumanyisia,
2 until the day in which he was received up, after he had given commandment through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.
ipakha isikhu Yeyo umwene apokheliwe khukhyanya. Iyi yale baada ya khuhumia iamuli ukhumela khu Mepo Umbalan'che. Khuvavitume uveavan'chaguile.
3 To these he also showed himself alive after he suffered, by many proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking about God’s Kingdom.
Baada ya mateso ga mwene, Umwene avonikhe khuvene vumwumi ni fisibitisio fingi filikhuvavula. Khu sikhu alubaini aevonisye khuvene, alikhun'chova ukhuhusu uvutwa wa Nguluve.
4 Being assembled together with them, he commanded them, “Don’t depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which you heard from me.
Avile ikhwagana paninie na vene, avavulile vasite ukhukhega khu Yelusalemu, lino vapulekhile khu ahadi ya Dada, yeyo, anchovile, “Mwale pulikhe ukhuhuma khuliune
5 For John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”
ukhuta uYohana aonvhinche weli khumagasi, lino mukhuo n'chiwa khu Mepo Umbalanche khu sikhu in'cho n'choni.”
6 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?”
Vavile vakusanyikhe paninie va mbun'chinche, “Dada, ugu gusekhe lino ugu gusekhe ugwakhuvakilivula ava Israeli uvutwa?”
7 He said to them, “It isn’t for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within his own authority.
Umwene akhavavula, “Siyo lueli khulweli khuliumwe ukhuluma usikhi gugya uDada isegile khumamulakha ga mwene.”
8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.”
Leno mupokhela amakha, usekhe Umepo Umbalan'che upukheva ikhyin'cha khuliumwe, na yumwe mwiva vasaidi vango khuoni khu Yelusalemu na khu Vuyahudi yoni na Samaliya ipakha umwisyo gwa khilunga.”
9 When he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight.
Untwa uYesu avile agan'chovile aga, vakhava vilolana khukianya, Umwene akhapembiwa khukianya, nilivango likhafunekha vasite ukhombona khumiho gavene.
10 While they were looking steadfastly into the sky as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white clothing,
Usekhe vuvilola khukianya fincho akhaluta, ghafla, avanu vavele vaemile pagati pavene vafualilee imienda imivalafa.
11 who also said, “You men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who was received up from you into the sky, will come back in the same way as you saw him going into the sky.”
Van'chovile, “Mwe vanu umwe na va Galilaya, khekhe mukhuma apa vumwilola khukyanya?” Uyu uYesu uviatogile khukyanya ikilivokha vulevule nduvumukha mbwene vuilota khukyanya.
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey away.
Puvakiliwikhe ukhuhuma khu kyamba ikha mizeituni, khikhwo khiupipi ni Yelusalemu, ulugendo ulwa sikhu Saba.
13 When they had come in, they went up into the upper room where they were staying, that is Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.
Wavile vafikhe vakhaluta ghorofani ukhuvavile vitama. Avo nu Petulo, uYohana, uYakobo, uAndelea, uFilipo, uTomasi, uBatulumayo, uMatayo, uYakobo Umwana va Alufayo, uSimoni Zelote nu Yuda Umwana va Yakobo.
14 All these with one accord continued steadfastly in prayer and supplication, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
Voni valungine ndumunu yumo, khumakha valikhwe ndevela khulwisayo. Paninie navo avakhale puvale avadala, uMaliamu umamaye va Yesu, na vakakhaye va mwene.
15 In these days, Peter stood up in the middle of the disciples (and the number of names was about one hundred twenty), and said,
Khusekhe gula uPetulo aemile pagati pa lukolo, avanu 120, an'choville,
16 “Brothers, it was necessary that this Scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was guide to those who took Jesus.
Valukolo, ikhala lasima amandikho gafimikhikhe, gago khatali Umepo Umbalan'che an'chovive khukhinywa khya Davudi ukhuhusiana Yuda, yuywa avelesinche vala avamwibite uYesu.
17 For he was counted with us, and received his portion in this ministry.
Ulukhuva umwene akhala yumo veto apokhile ilifungu liamwene iliafaida khuhuduma.”
18 Now this man obtained a field with the reward for his wickedness; and falling headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines gushed out.
(Lino umunu uyu agulile eneo khu khela ikhyapokhile khuvuvivi wa mwene napo agyile akhalongon'cha utwe, umbili gukhaban'chukha na mafumbu ga mwene goni gakhara pavuvalafu gakhadudikha.
19 It became known to everyone who lived in Jerusalem that in their language that field was called ‘Akeldama,’ that is, ‘The field of blood.’
Voni avakhatamile khu Yelusalemu vapulikhe ukhuhusu ili, lino elieneo elio vakhalilanga khu lugha yavene “Akheldama” ikho khyalo khya khisa.”)
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, ‘Let his habitation be made desolate. Let no one dwell in it;’ and, ‘Let another take his office.’
“Khukhitabu ikhya Zaburi khyandikhwa, 'Pulikhila ilieneo lya mwene live hame na lisite ukhuluhusiwa ate yumo ukhutama pala;' ni, 'Ruhusu umunu uyunge atole inafasi ya mwene iya uwongosi.'
21 “Of the men therefore who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Iyo ya muhimu, khuiyo, yumo uva vagosi wavotukongonchihne nufwe usekhe Untwa uYesu avile ahumile nu khwingela palyufe,
22 beginning from the baptism of John to the day that he was received up from us, of these one must become a witness with us of his resurrection.”
ukhutengolela khulwon'cho ulwa Yohana ipakha isikhu yeyo atoliwe khu kyanya, lasima ave insaidi va khun'chukha paninie nufwe.
23 They put forward two: Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also called Justus, and Matthias.
“Vakhavekha khuvulongolo avagosi vavele, uYusufu uvikhyilangiwe Yusito na Mathia.
24 They prayed and said, “You, Lord, who know the hearts of all men, show which one of these two you have chosen
Avene vadovile vakhata, “Uveve, Vutwa, uvuugemanyile imioyo gya vanu voni, leno uvekhe wasi veni veni khuvavele ava yuywa un'chagwile
25 to take part in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas fell away, that he might go to his own place.”
ukhutola inafwasi khuhuduma nu usuhe, bakho uYuda avombile uvuvivi nukhuluta apamwene.”
26 They drew lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was counted with the eleven apostles.
Vakhatova ikula khwaajili yavene, ni kula n'chighagwele uMathia yuywa avaliwe paninie na wala ava mitume kumi na moja.
