Matendo ga Mitume 14
1 Ipalikwa katika Ikonia panga Paulo na Barnaba bajingii mpamo katika lisinagogi lya Ayahudi balongela namna ambayo likundi likolo lya bandu Ayahudi na Bayunani.
And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke, that a great multitude both of the Jews, and also of the Greeks, believed.
2 Lakini Ayahudi baheshima kwaa balibachochea akili bamataifa na kuwapanga kuwa dhidi ya alongo.
But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil-affected against the brethren.
3 Kwa eyo batama kolyo kwa muda mrefu, balongela kwa ujasiri kwa nguvu ya Ngwana, huku akitoa uthibitisho nnani ya ujumbe wa neema yake. Apangite nyoo kwa kutoa ishara na maajabu vipangwe kwa maboko ga Paulo na Barnaba.
A long time therefore they abode speaking boldly in the Lord, who gave testimony to the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4 Lakini eneo likolo lya mji lyatigawanyika: baadhi ya bandu babile pamope na Ayahudi, na benge babile pamope na mitume.
But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.
5 Muda bamataifa na Ayahudi bajaribia kubashawishi viongozi wabe kubatendea vibaya na kubakombwa maliwe Paulo na Barnaba.
And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews, with their rulers, to use [them] despitefully, and to stone them,
6 batangite lee na kubutukya katika miji ya Likaonia, Listra na Derbe, na maeneo yatilizunguka eneo lee.
Being apprised of [it], they fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the region in that vicinity.
7 na kolyo batihubiri injili.
And there they preached the gospel.
8 Na kolyo Listra pabile na mundu yumo ywatama, abile kwaa na ngupu mumagolo gake, kilema boka mundu lya mao bake, ywatyanga kwaa.
And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who had never walked.
9 Mundu yolo amyowine Paulo paalongela. Paulo atumbwi minyo na kubona panga abile na imani ya kupona.
The same heard Paul speak: who steadfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,
10 Nga nyoo abayote kwake kwa lilobe lya nnani, “Yema kwa magolo gako,” Ni yolo mundu attiruka kunani na atumbwile tyanga.
Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.
11 Kipenga sa bandu pakibweni saakipangite Paulo, batiinua lilobe lao, kababaya katika lahaja ya Kilikaonio, “nongo itituulukia kwa namna ya mundu.”
And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men.
12 Bamkemile Barnaba “Zeu” na Paulo “Herme” kwa mana abile nkolo wa kulongela.
And they called Barnabas, Jupiter, and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.
13 Kuhani wa Zeu, ywabile lihekalu lyake libile panja ya mji, aletike fahari lya ng'ombe na mtungo wa maua mpaka pa'nnango wa mji na kipenga sa bandu bapala kutoa sadaka.
Then the priest of Jupiter, who was before their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.
14 Lakimi mitume, Barnaba na Paulo, payowine lee, batirarua ngobo yao na kwa haraka batiyenda panja mu'kipenga sa bandu, batilela
[Which], when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard [of], they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,
15 no baya, “Mwenga mwa bandu, kwa mwanja namani mugapanga makowe aga? Na twenga twaabandu kae tubile na hisia kati mwenga. Twaaletea habari njema, panga mukerebuke boka mu'ilebe yoo ifaika kwaa na kumkerebukiya Nnongo ywabile nkoto, ywaiumbile mbingu, dunia na bahari na kila kilebe kibile nkati yake.
And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach to you, that ye should turn from these vanities to the living God, who made heaven and earth, and the sea, and all things that are in them.
16 Katika nyakati ya nchogo, atibaruhusu mataifa kutyanga katika ndela zao bembe.
Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.
17 akini bado, aondoa kwaa bila shahidi, katika lee apangite vizuri na kuwapeya uula boka kumaunde na nyakati za mazao, abatweloe mioyo yinu kwa chakulya na puraha”
Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.
18 Hata kwa maneno aga, Paulo na Barnaba kwa shida batikikanikia kipenga sa bandu kubatolea sadaka.
And with these sayings they scarce restrained the people from doing sacrifice to them.
19 Lakini baadhi ya Ayahudi boka Antiokia na Ikonio baisile kubashawishi bandu. Bamkombwile maliwe Paulo na kumburuta hadi panja ya mji, bakidhani awile.
And there came thither [certain] Jews from Antioch, and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and having stoned Paul, drew [him] out of the city, supposing him to be dead.
20 Hata nyoo banafunzi babile bayemi papipi naywembe, aliamka, nabajingii mjini. Lisoba lya nyaibele, atiyenda Derbe na Barnaba.
But as the disciples stood around him, he rose, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.
21 Baada ya kufundisha injili katika mji wolo na kuwapanga banafunzi banyansima, batikerebukya Listra, mpaka Ikoniamu, na mpaka Antiokia.
And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and [to] Iconium, and to Antioch,
22 Batiyendelya kuimarisha nafsi ya banafunzi na kubatia mwoyo kuyendelya katika imani, kabaya.”Lazima tuyingii katika ufalme wa Nnongo kwa pitya mateso ganyansima.”
Confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
23 Paabanchawile kwa ajili yao apindo ba kila likuanyiko lya baaminio, na babile batiloba na kufunga, batikuakabithi kwa Ngwana, ambae bembe batikumwaminiya.
And when they had ordained for them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.
24 Boka po baptya ku'Pisidia, pabaikite Pamfilia.
And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.
25 Muda balongela maneno katika Perga, batiuluka kuyenda Atalia.
And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:
26 Boka kolyo batipanda Antiokia ambako babile bamejitoa kwa neema ya Nnongo kwa ajili ya kazi ambayo nambeambe babile watiikamilisha.
And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been commended to the grace of God, for the work which they fulfilled.
27 Pabaikite Antiokia, na kulikusanya likusanyiko lya mpamo, batitoa taarifa ya makowe ambayo Nnongo agapangite kwa bandu ba mataifa.
And when they had come, and had assembled the church, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and that he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.
28 Batitama kwa muda mrefu na banafunzi.
And there they abode a long time with the disciples.
