Matendo ga Mitume 5
1 Nga nyoo, mundu yumo ywakemelwa Anania, na Safira nyumbo wake, bapemei sehemu ya mali,
But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
2 Na kuificha sehemu ya mbanje yakupemeya (Nnyumbo bake atangite), na kaletya sehemu yenge na kuibeka mumagolo ga mitume.
And kept back [part] of the price, (his wife also being privy [to it] ) and brought a certain part, and laid [it] at the apostles' feet.
3 Lakini Petro kabaya, “Anania, kwa mwanja namani nchela atiutweliya mwoyo wako kubaya ubocho kwa Roho Mtakatifu na kuficha sehemu ya mali ya nngunda?
But Peter said, Ananias, Why hath Satan filled thy heart to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back [part] of the price of the land?
4 Palyo paibile ipemewa kwaa, ibile kwaa mali yako? Na baada ya kupemea, ibile kwaa pae ya uamuzi wako? Ipangike namani uwaze likowe lee mumwoyo wako? Upanga ubocho kwa mwanadamu kwaa, ila upangia ubocho Nnongo.”
While it remained, was it not thy own? and after it was sold, was it not in thy own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thy heart? thou hast not lied to men, but to God.
5 Katika kuyowa maneno aga, Anania atombwike pae na kukata roho. Na hofo ngolo iisile kwa bote bayowine lee.
And Ananias hearing these words, fell down, and expired. And great fear came on all them that heard these things.
6 Amisembe baisile nnongi na kuntia mu'sanda, na kumpeleka panja na kumsika.
And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried [him] out, and buried [him].
7 Baada ya masaa matatu, nnyumbo wake ajingii mulihekalu, atangite kwaa chakipangike.
And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.
8 Petro kamakiya, “Nibakie, mana mupemii ngunda kwa thamani yelo.” Kabaya, “Eloo, kwa thamani yelo.”
And Peter answered to her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yes, for so much.
9 Petro kammakia, “Ipangika kwaa panga mwapatana kwa pamope kumjaribu Roho wa Ngwana? Linga, magolo ga balo batinsika nchengo bako ibile pannango, na balowa kukutola na kukupeleka panja,”
Then Peter said to her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold the feet of them who have buried thy husband [are] at the door, and shall carry thee out.
10 Ghafla atomboki pa magolo ga Petro, kakata roho, na balo amisembe baisile mu'nyumba batinkuta awile. Kabantola ni kumpeleka panja, ni kunsika papipi ni nchengo wake.
Then she fell down immediately at his feet, and expired. And the young men came in, and found her dead, and carrying [her] forth, buried [her] by her husband.
11 Hofu ngolo iisile nnani ya likanisa zima, na nnani ya bote bayowine makowea ga.
And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.
12 Ishara za nyansima na maajabu gapangilwe nkati ya bandu pitya maboko ga mitume, Babile pamope katika ukumbi wa Sulemani.
And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.
13 Lakini, ntopo mundu ywenge tofauti ywabile na ujasiri wa kuambatana nabo; hata nyo, bapeilwe heshima ya kunani ya bandu.
And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.
14 Na pia, baamini banyansima batiyongekea kwa Ngwana, idadi ngolo ya analome ni anwawa,
And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)
15 kiasi panga hata baapotwi atamwe mu'mitaa, na kuagonjekea mu'indanda na mu'makochi, ili panga Petro mana itei apeta, kivuli chake kiweze kuashukia nnani yabe.
So that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid [them] on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.
16 Muda woo, idadi ngolo ya bandu baisile bako mumiji yaizunguka Yerusalem, kabaleta atamwe na bote babile na nchela achapu, na bote bapatike ukoto.
There came also a multitude [out] of the cities around to Jerusalem, bringing sick persons, and them who were afflicted with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.
17 Lakini kuhani nkolo atiinuka, na bote babile pamope niywembe (bandu ba dhehebu la Masadukayo): na batwelilwe wivu.
Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him; (which is the sect of the Sadducees) and were filled with indignation,
18 Kabanyoosha maboko gabe kuwakamwa mitume na kuwabeka mu'ligereza lya jumla.
And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.
19 Na muda wa kilo malaika wa Ngwana kafungua nnango wa ligereza na kuakengama panja no baya,
But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison-doors, and brought them forth, and said,
20 “Muyende, muyemi mulihekalu na kuwabakia bandu maneno yote ya ukoto wolo.”
Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.
21 Kabayowine lee, bajingii mulihekalu muda wa pambazuka na kuapundisha. Lakini, kuhani nkolo aisile na bote babile ni ywembe, na kulikema libaraza lyote kwa mpamo, na apindo bote ba bandu ba Israeli, na kuatuma mu'ligereza ili kualeta mitume.
And when they heard [that], they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
22 Lakini batumishi batiyenda, waakuta kwaa muligereza, bakerebuka na kutoa taarifa.
But when the officers came, and found them not in the prison, they returned, and told,
23 “Tulibweni ligereza litabilwe salama, na alinzi bayemi pannyango, lakini patuliyongoli, tummweni kwaa mundu mu'ligereza.”
Saying, The prison truly we found shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within.
24 Nambeambe wakati jemedari wa lihekalu na makuhani akolo pabayowine maneno aga, shaka ngolo ibajingii kwa ajili yabembe bawaza likowe lee lipangika namani.
Now when the high priest, and the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these things, they doubted of them to what this would grow.
25 Boka poo aisile na kuamakiya, “Bandu babile mu'ligereza bayemi mu'lihekalu na bapundisha bandu.”
Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.
26 Jemedari kayenda pamope na batumishi, na kualeta, lakini bila panga vurugu, kwa sababu batibayogopa bandu baweza kuwakombwa kwa maliwe.
Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned.
27 Bayomwile kubaleta, bayemi nnongi ya libaraza. Kuhani nkolo kaanaluya
And when they had brought them, they set [them] before the council: and the high priest asked them,
28 kabaya, “Twatibaamuru kana mpundishe kwa lina lee, na bado muitweli Yerusalemu kwa lipundisho linu, na tamaniya kuleta myai ya mundu ayoo nnani yitu.”
Saying, Did we not strictly command you, that ye should not teach in this name? and behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us.
29 Lakini Petro na mitume bayangwa, “Lazima tumheshimu Nnongo kuliko bandu.
Then Peter and the [other] apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
30 Nnongo wa Tate bitu atimfufua Yesu, ywa mwatimbulaga, kwa kuntundika nnani ya nkongo.
The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree:
31 Nnongo atintukuza mu'luboko lwake lwa mmaliyo, na kumpanga kuwa nkolo na nkochopoli, kutoa toba kwa Israeli, na msamaha wa sambi.
Him hath God exalted with his right hand [to be] a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
32 Twenga ni mashahidi wa makowe aga, na Roho Mtakatifu, ambaye Nnongo atimtoa kwa balo bamweshimia,”
And we are his witnesses of these things; and [so is] also the Holy Spirit, whom God hath given to them that obey him.
33 Bajumbe ba baraza bayowine nyoo, babile na hasira bapala kuwabulaga mitume.
When they heard [that], they were cut [to the heart], and took counsel to slay them.
34 Lakini farisayo ywakemelwa Gamalieli, mwalimu wa saliya, ywaheshimiwa na bandu bote, ayemi na kuamuru mitume babekwa panja kwa muda mwipi.
Then stood up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little time.
35 Boka poo kaamakiya, “Analome ba Israeli, mube makini muno na chelo chamukipendekeza kubapangia bandu aba.
And said to them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do concerning these men:
36 Kwa sababu, zamani yaipeta, Theuda aliinuka na kujidai kuwa nkolo, na idadi ya bandu, bapata mia ncheche batinkengama. Awile, na bote babile batimweshimia batawanyika na kupotea.
For before these days rose Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to naught.
37 Baada ya mundu yoo, Yuda Mgalilaya, aliinuka masoba gakuandikisha sensa, kaavuta bandu banyansima kunchogo kwake. Ni ywembe atipotea na balo babile bakimweshimiya batitawanyika.
After this man rose Judas of Galilee, in the days of the taxing, and drew away many people after him: he also perished; and all, [even] as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.
38 Nambeambe naabakiya, mujiepushe na bandu aba na mubaleke bene, kwa sababu, mana mpango woo au kazi yee ni ya bandu yalowa tupwa.
And now I say to you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work is from men, it will come to naught:
39 Lakini mana ni ya Nnongo, mwaweza kwaa kuwazuia; mwaweza kujikuta hata mwampinga Nnongo.”Nga nyo, batishawishika na maneno gake.
But if it is from God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.
40 Boka po, baakema mitume mu'nyumba na kubakombwa na kubaamuru kana balongele kwa lina lya Yesu, na batibaleka bayebde zao.
And to him they assented: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten [them], they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
41 Batiboka nnongi ya libaraza bapuraika kwa sababu batibalangilwa kuwa wastahili teseka na hesjimiwa kwaa kwa ajili ya Lina lee.
And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
42 Kwa eyo, kila lisoba, mu'lihekalu na boka nyumba hadi nyumba bayenda kupundisha na hubiri Yesu kuwa ni Masihi.
And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.
