Acts 25
1 Three days after Festus entered his province, he went up from Caesarea to Jerusalem.
Niwo Festo ejile egila mwiJimbo elyo na Jejile jatulao nsiku esatu agandele okusoka Kaisaria kukinga Yerusalemu.
2 The high priest and the Jewish leaders laid charges against Paul before him.
Omugabhisi mukulu wa Bhayaudi ali masika bhaletele amalila ga Paulo ku Festo, nabhaikile kwa managa KU Festo.
3 They urged him, asking it as a favor, to send for him to Jerusalem. They meant to lay in wait for him and kill him on the way.
Nibhamusabhwa Festo echigongo ingulu ye misango ja Paulo abhone okumubhilikila Yerusalemu koleleki bhabhone okumwita mu njila.
4 But Festus answered that Paul was in custody at Caesarea, and that he himself was going there soon.
Mbe nawe Festo nasubhya ati Paulo aliga mubhoywa mu Kaisaria, na ati omwenene atakusubhayo eyo bhwangu.
5 "Let those then," he said, "who are in authority among you, go down with me, and if there is anything amiss in the man, let them accuse him."
Aikile “kulwejo, bhalya bhanu abhatula, okugenda eyo neswe. Alabha chilio chinu chibhibhi ku munu unu, kubheile okumusitaka.”
6 After staying not more than eight or ten days among them, he went down to Caesarea, and the next day, after taking his seat upon the tribunal, he ordered Paul to be brought.
Ejile enyanja naku munana amwi okwambhuka ekumi, nasubha Kaisaria. No lunaku lunu lwalubhie Nenyanja KU chitebhe cha indamu no kulagilila Paulo aletwe KU mwene.
7 When he came in, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him and brought a number of serious charges against him, which they could not prove.
Ejile akinga, abhayaudi okusoka Yerusalemu nibhemelegulu ayei, nibhasosha amasitaka mafu masito ganu bhatatulile kugakomelesha.
8 Paul said in his defense, "I have committed no crime against the Law of the Jews, against the Temple, or against Caesar."
Paulo nelilila no kwaika, 'Atali ni kwa ingulu ya lisina lwa abhayaudi, nolwo atali ingulu ya iyekalu, na atali ingulu ya Kaisaria, nikolele kubhibhi.'
9 But Festus, wishing to ingratiate himself with the Jews, answered Paul and said, "Will you go up to Jerusalem and be tried there by me upon these charges?"
Nawe Festo aliga nenda okwikondya ku Bhayaudi, na kwibhyo namusubhya Paulo kwo kwaika, 'Angu, owenda okuja Yerusalemu no kulamulwa nanye okulubhana na masango ganu eyo?'
10 "I am standing before Caesar’s tribunal," answered Paul, "where I ought to be tried. I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you very well know.
Paulo aikile, 'Enimelegulu imbhele ye chitebhe cha indamu echa Kaisaria nolwo kutyo jinyiile okulamulwa. Nichali kubhanyamulila abhayaudi, lwa kutyo awe Umenyele kisi.
11 "If I am a criminal and have done anything for which I ought to die, I do not object to die. But if none of their charges is true, no man can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar."
Nikabha ninyamue Alabha nikolele jinu jiile olufu, nitakulema kufwa. Mbe nawe Alabha obhubheelesha bhebhwe chitali chinu, atalio munu unu katula okuntula kubhene. Enimulola Kaisaria.
12 Then Festus, after conferring with the council, answered. "You have appealed to Caesar; to Caesar you shall go."
'Festo ejile amala okwaika na bhe china nasubhya, “Oumusabhwa Kaisaria; oujo kuja ku Kaisaria.”
13 A short time after this King Agrippa and Bernice came to Caesarea to pay their respects to Festus.
Jejile jatulao naku nyafuo, Omukama Agripa na Bernike bhakingile Kaisaria okukola olugendo lunu lukomelesibhwe ku Festo.
14 And while they tarried many days, Festus laid Paul’s case before the king. "There is a man here," he said, "whom Felix left a prisoner.
Ejile enyanja ao kwa naku nyafu, Festo asilile ikesi ya Paulo ku mukama; Naika, 'omunu umwi asigilwe Anu na Feliki kuti mubhoywa.
15 "The chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me about him, when I was at Jerusalem, demanding a sentence against him.
Anu naliga nili Yerusalemu abhagabhisi Abhakulu na abhakaluka bhe chiyaudi bhaletele amasitaka ingulu yo munu unu kwanye, abhene nibhabhusha ingulu ya indamu yo kulubhana nage.
16 I told them that it was not the custom of the Romans to give any man up for punishment, before the accused had his accusers face to face, and had opportunity of defending himself against the charges that had been brought against him.
Ku linu anye nasubhishe ati jitali ntungwa ja bharumi okumusosha omunu kwa isolole yo mwene-la, omunu we chikayo eile okubha no mwanya gwo kubhabhona bhanu bhamusitakile no kwililila ingulu ye bhusitaki obho.
17 "So when a number of them came together here, I made no delay, but the next day took my seat in the tribunal, and commanded the man to be brought.
Kulwejo, bhejile bhejila amwi anu nitatulile kulindilila nawe Olunaku lunu lwalubhie nenyanjile ku chitebhe cha indamu no kulagilila omunu oyo aletwe munda.
18 "But when his accusers stood up, they did not begin charging him with any of the crimes that I was expecting,
Mu mwanya abhasitaki nibhemelegulu no kumusitaka, neganilisishe ati gatalio masitaka manene ganu galetelwe ku mwene.
19 but they kept quarreling with him about certain matters connected with their own religion, and about one Jesus who had died, but whom Paul affirmed over and over was alive.
Okumala, bhaliga bhali na jimamba ndebhe amwi nage okulubhana na idini yebhwe no kulubhana na Yesu unu aliga afuye, nawe Paulo kelesha ati Ni muanga.
20 I was perplexed how to investigate such questions, and asked Paul whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters.
Naliga nifundikiwe ingulu yo kugumenya omusango gunu, nimubhusha alabha akagendele Yerusalemu okulamulwa okulubhana ne misango jinu.
21 But when Paul appealed to have his case reviewed for the decision of the Emperor, I ordered him to be detained until I could send him up to Caesar."
Mbe nawe Paulo ejile abhilikilwa natebhwa mu bhulindi ingulu yo obhulamusi bho mukama, nalagilie atulwe kukinga Anu nakamusile ku Kaisari.
22 "I should like to hear the man, myself," said Agrippa to Festus. Festus answered, "You shall hear him tomorrow."
'Agripa aikile na Festo,”Naliga nendele one nimutegeleshe omunu unu.” “Festo, naika, “Mutondo oumutegelesha.”
23 So the next day Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp, and took their places in the hall of audience, accompanied by the tribunes and men of high rank in the city. At the command of Festus Paul was brought in.
Kwibhyo bhilwe bhuchee, Agripa na Barnike bhakinga no lumula lwafu, bhejile bhakinga mwigalagalilo na bhechibhalo bhe chisilikale, na bhanu masika bho musi. Festo ejile alagilila Paulo naletwa KU bhene.
24 "King Agrippa," said Festus, "and all men who are present with us, you see here the man about whom the entire body of the Jews at Jerusalem, and here also, sent to me, crying out that he ought not to live any longer.
Festo naika, “mukama Agripa, na bhanu bhona bhanu bhali amwi neswe anu, omumulola omunu unu; Imbaga yona eya bhayaudi eyo Yerusalemu na Anu one abhenda nibhasakile, na bhene nibhansekanila ati asige ukulama.
25 "I could not find that he had done anything for which he ought to die; but as he himself has appealed to the Emperor, I have determined to send him.
Nindola ati atakolele lyona lyona linu lyaliga liile olufu; Mbe nawe kulwa insonga amubhilikie Omukama, nalamue okumusila ewae.
26 "Now I have nothing very definite to tell our sovereign about him. So I have brought the man before you all, and especially before you, King Agrippa, in order that, after examination, I may have something to write.
Mbe nawe nitana chinu abhwelu echo kwandika ku mukama. Kulwa insonga inu, namuleta kwawe awe, Omukama Agripa, koleleki nibhone echinu cho kwandika okulubhana na ikesi.
27 "For it does seem to me unreasonable to send a person without signifying the charges against him."
Kulwo kubha enilola itana nsonga yo kumusila omubhoywa obhutelesha amashitaka ganu gamwiile.
