Acts 16
1 And he came even unto Derbe, and unto Lystra; and lo! a certain disciple, was there, by name Timothy, son of a believing Jewish woman, but whose father was a Greek, —
A Pauli gubhaishe ku shilambo sha Debhe na ku Lishitila, kweneko bhatendaga tama bhaajiganywa bhamo bhashemwa a Timoteo. Anyinabhabho nabhalabho pubhaaliji bhaakulupalila na pubahaaliji Bhayaudi, ikabheje ainabhabho pubhaaliji Bhagiliki.
2 who was well-attested by the brethren in Lystra, and Iconium.
A Timoteo bhatendaga shuma uguja ku bhakilishitu bhatamanganaga ku Lishitila na ku Ikonio.
3 The same, would Paul have go forth with him, and took and circumcised him, on account of the Jews who were in those places; for they one and all knew that, his father, was, a Greek.
A Pauli gubhapinjile bhalongane na a Timoteo, kwa nneyo gubhaatajile unyago. Bhashinkutenda nneyo kwa ligongo lya Bhayaudi bhatamanganaga jene mmbali jila bhashinkumumanyanga kuti a Timoteo ainabhabho pubhaaliji Bhagiliki.
4 And, as they passed through the cities, they were delivering unto them, for observance, the decrees which had been decided upon by the Apostles and Elders who were in Jerusalem.
Pubhapitanganaga muilambo mula, a Pauli na a Timoteo bhashinkwapanganga bhandunji malajilo gakopweshe ku Yelushalemu kwa ashimitume bha a Yeshu na bhanangulungwa, gubhaakomelesheyenje bhagatolelelanje.
5 The assemblies, therefore, were being confirmed in the faith, and increasing in number, every day.
Kwa nneyo bhandunji bha yene nyumba ya jujila Nnungu ila gubhapundilenje kwiishimilika nngulupai na bhandunji bha kwiilunda bhakujenjeshekangaga.
6 And they passed through the Phrygian and Galatian country, being forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia;
A Pauli na ashajabhonji gubhapitilenje mmbali ya ku Piligia na ku Galatia, pabha Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo ashinkwaibhililanga bhanalunguyanje gwene ntengago muilambo ya ku Ashiya.
7 but, coming along Mysia, they were attempting to journey into Bithynia, —and, the Spirit of Jesus, suffered them not;
Bhakaikangananjeje mu mpika gwa shilambo sha Mishia, gubhalinjilenje kujinjila kushilambo sha ku Bhishinia, ikabheje Mbumu jwa a Yeshu gwabhalimbiyenje.
8 but, passing by Mysia, they came down unto Troas.
Bhai, gubhapitilenje ku Mishia, gubhaelelenje mpaka ku Toloa.
9 And, a vision, by night, unto Paul appeared: —A man of Macedonia, there was, standing and beseeching him, and saying—Come over into Macedonia, and bring us succour!
Shilo, a Pauli gubhaagamile, gubhammweni mundu jumo jwa ku Makedonia ajimi alikwaajuga “Nnjomboshe nnjiye ku bhandunji bha ku Makedonia kuntujangute.”
10 Now, when, the vision, he had seen, straightway, we sought to go forth unto Macedonia, concluding that God, had summoned us to tell the glad tidings unto them.
Shangupe a Pauli bhakaagamileje nneyo, twangakabha gutupanganishe kwenda ku Makedonia, tulikumumanya kuti a Nnungu bhashikutushema tukaalungushiyanje Ngani ja Mmbone.
11 Setting sail, therefore, from Troas, we ran straight into Samothracia, and, on the morrow, unto New City,
Tukajabhuleje ku Toloa, gutukwelile meli kwenda ku Shamotalake na malabhi gakwe gutuishe ku Neapoli.
12 and, from thence, unto Philippi, —which, indeed, is the first city of the part of Macedonia—a colony. And we were, in this city, spending certain days;
Tukajabhuleje penepo, gutuishe mpaka ku Pilipi shilambo sha ku Makedonia, shilambo shikulungwa sha Bhaloma jene mmbali jila. Gutulonjeye shene shilambosho mobha gowepe.
13 and on the day of rest, we went forth outside the gate, beside a river, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, —and, sitting down, we went on to speak unto the women who had come together.
Lyubha lya Pumulila gutukopweshe palanga shilambo, gutupite nnyenje lushi nkuloleya pa jujila Nnungu, gututemi nkukunguluka na bhanabhakongwe bhaimenenje penepo.
14 And, a certain woman, by name Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, devout towards God, was hearkening, whose heart, the Lord, fully opened, to be giving heed unto the things being spoken by Paul.
Munkumbi gwa bhatupilikanishiyangaga bhala, bhashinkupagwa bhakongwe bhamo bhaajogopaga a Nnungu bhashemwaga a Lidia, bha shilambo sha ku Tiatila bhaaliji na upindi gwa nngubho ya galama. Bhakulungwa bhashinkwaugulila ntima, bhagaposhele malobhe gubhabheleketaga a Pauli.
15 And, when she was immersed, and her house, she besought [us], saying—If ye have judged me to be a believer in the Lord, come into my house, and abide [there]. And she constrained us.
Bhakabhatishweje bhenebho na bhandunji bha nnyumba jabho, gubhatushemile kungwabho bhalinkuti, “Ibhaga kweli nnjibhweninji ngulupai jangu ku Bhakulungwa, nnjiangananje kumui kuntamangananje.” Gubhatushondelesheye kwa kaje.
16 And it came to pass, as we were on our way unto the place of prayer, a certain damsel, having a spirit of Python, met us, —who, indeed, much gain, was presenting unto her masters, by divining.
Lyubha limo tulikwenda pa kwaajujila a Nnnugu, gutuimene naka mwali jumo akwete lioka lya londola. Jwene mwalijo atendaga kwaapatilanga mmbiya yaigwinji ashinangologwe kwa liengo lyakwe lya londola.
17 The same, following after Paul and us, kept crying aloud, saying—These men, are servants of the Most High God, —who, indeed, are declaring unto you a way of salvation.
Bhai, mwali jula gwabhakagwile a Pauli na uwe, alijobhela alinkuti, “Abha bhandunjibha nibhaakamula maengo bha a Nnungu bha kunnungu. Bhanakungulushilanga mpanda gwa patila ntapulo!”
18 And, this, she continued to do for many days. But Paul, worn out, and turning unto the spirit, said—I charge thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come out from her. And it came out the same hour.
Gwatendile nneyo kwa mobha gamagwinji mpaka lyubha limo a Pauli guyaashimile, gubhatendebhwishe gubhammalanjile lioka jula, “Ngunakuamulisha kwa lina lya a Yeshu Kilishitu gunshoshe aju!” Shangupe lioka jula gwanshoshile mwali jula.
19 And, her masters, seeing that their hope of gain had gone out, laying hold on Paul and Silas, dragged them into the market-place, unto the rulers;
Ashinangologwe mwali jula bhakabhonanjeje ngulupai jabhonji jaapatilangaga mmbiya jiobhile, gubhaakamwilenje a Pauli na a Shila, nikwaakwakwatilanga mpaka kubhaushiyanga indu kubhakulungwanji bha shilambo.
20 and, leading them forward unto the magistrates, said—These men, are exceedingly troubling our city, they, being Jews,
Gubhaalugwilenje ku bhaaukumulanga bhalinkutinji, “Abha bhandunjibha Bhayaudi, na bhananyatyanga shilambo shetu.
21 And are declaring customs, which it is not allowable for us either to accept or to observe, being Romans.
Bhanalunguyanga ngani ja ikubho ikaapinjikwa kuiposhela uwe wala kuikagula, pabha uwe tu Bhaloma.”
22 And the multitude rose up together against them, and, the magistrates, rending off them their mantles, were giving orders to beat them with rods;
Lugwinjili lowe lwa bhandu gulwaajendelenje kukwakomanga a Pauli na a Shila, nabhalabhonji bhaaukumulanga gubhaulilenje ngubho yabhonji kwa mashili, gubhaamulishenje bhakomwanje ibhoko.
23 and, laying upon them many stripes, they thrust them into prison, charging the prison-keeper, safely, to be keeping them:
Bhakakomwanjeje kwa kaje gubhaugalilwenje nnigelesha, gubhannajilenje linjola jwa ligelesha kubhika ulinda gwa kajekaje.
24 who, a charge like this receiving, thrust them into the inner prison, and, their feet, made he fast in the stocks.
Linjolajo akapateje gene malajilogo, gwabhaugalilenje a Pauli na a Shila kati ja nkati ligelesha lila bhali bhaatabhilenje makongono na makono nnipoto.
25 And, at midnight, Paul and Silas, being at prayer, began singing praise unto God; and the prisoners unto them, did hearken.
Tome na pakati shilo a Pauli na a Shila bhatendaga juganga Nnungu akuno bhalijimbanga nyimbo ya kwainiya, bhaatabhwanga bhananji bhalikwaapilikanishiyanga.
26 And, suddenly, a great earthquake took place, —so that the foundations of the prison were shaken, and all the doors were [instantly] set open, and the bonds of all were unfastened.
Shangupe, litaka likutetemelaga kwa jogoya na mubhaolelenje makumba ga lijumba lya ligeleshalila mukutenganyikaga, shangupe milango jowe ja ligelesha lila jikuugukaga na mindondolo jibhatabhilwenje jila jikugopokaga.
27 And, the prison-keeper, being wakened and seeing that the doors of the prison had been opened, drawing his sword, was about to kill himself, supposing the prisoners to have fled.
Linjola jwa ulinda jula akajumusheje nikujibhona milango ja ligelesha jiugwishe, gwaganishiye kuti bhaatabhwanga bhowe bhabhutekenje, kwa nneyo gwaolomwele upanga gwakwe nkupinga aibhulaje.
28 But Paul called out with a loud voice, saying—By no means, do thyself harm, for we are, one and all, here.
Ikabheje a Pauli gubhautiye lilobhe bhalinkuti, “Unaipoteshe, pabha uwe tubhowe tupali pano.”
29 And, asking for a light, he sprang in, and becoming, agitated, fell down unto Paul and Silas,
Gwashemiye kandili, jikaisheje linjola jula gwabhutushile nkati, gwaigwishiye pamakongono ga a Pauli na a Shila akuno alitetemela kwa jogopa.
30 and, leading them forth outside, said—Sirs! what must I be doing, that I may be saved?
Kungai gwabhakopoyenje palanga, nigwashite, “Ndende bhuli niitapule?”
31 And, they, said—Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, thou, and thy house.
Gubhannjangwilenje, “Gwaakulupalile a Yeshu shiutapulwe ugwe na likaja lyako.”
32 And they spake unto him the word of God, with all who were in his house.
Bhai, gubhannungushiyenje lilobhe lya Bhakulungwa jwenejo na bhandunji bhowe bha likaja lyakwe.
33 And, taking them with him, in that hour of the night, he bathed them from their stripes, and was immersed, he, and his, one and all, on the spot;
Linjola jula gwabhatolilenje malanga ga shilo pegala gwabhaukengenje ilonda yabhonji, kungai jwenejo na bhandunji bha nnyumba jakwe bhowe gubhabhatishwenje gwanakamope.
34 and, leading them up into his house, he set near a table, —and exulted, having, with all his house, believed in God.
Gwabhapelekenje a Pauli na a Shila kunngwakwe, gwabhapelenje shalya. Jwalakwe na bhandunji bha nnyumba jakwe gubhainonyelenje, pabha nnaino bhaakulupalilenje a Nnungu.
35 And. when day came. the magistrates sent off the constables saying—Let those men go!
Kukasheje lyamba, bhaukumulanga gubhaatumilenje bhakulungwanji bha manjola bhalinkutinji, “Nkaagopolanje bhandunji bhala bhajendangane.”
36 And the prison-keeper reported the words unto Paul—The magistrates have sent, that ye be let go. Now, therefore, going forth, be taking your journey in peace.
Linjola jula akwaalugulilaga a Pauli jene nganijo alinkuti. “Bhaukumulanga bhashitumanga ntenga nkupinga nngopolwanje. Bhai, nnaino nkopokangane nnjendangane kwa ulele.”
37 But, Paul, said unto them—Beating us, in public, uncondemned, men that are Romans, they thrust us into prison; —and, now, by stealth, are they thrusting us forth? Nay, verily! but let them come, themselves, and lead us out!
Ikabheje a Pauli gubhannjangwile, “Bhashikutukomanga ibhoko palugwinjili gwangali kutuukumula na uwe Tubhaloma. Na kabhili bhashikutuugalilanga nnigelesha na nnaino bhanapinganga kutugopolanga kwa nng'iyo! Nngabha nneyo, ikabheje bhajiyangananje ashaayene kubhatukopoyanje.”
38 And the constables reported unto the magistrates these words; and they were struck with fear, when they heard that they were, Romans;
Bhakulungwanji bha manjola gubhapitenje kwaalugulilanga bhaukumulanga jene nganijo, bhakapilikananjeje kuti a Pauli na a Shila ni Bhaloma, gubhajogopenje.
39 and came, and besought them, and, leading them out, went on to request them to depart from the city.
Kwa nneyo, gubhapite kwaagwilanga pa makongono, bhakaakopoyanjeje palanga gubhaajujilenje bhashokangananje pa shilambo pala.
40 And so, coming forth from the prison, they went unto Lydia, and, seeing the brethren, they comforted them, and went forth.
A Pauli na a Shila gubhakopokenje nnigelesha, gubhapitengenenje kumui kwa a Lidia. Kweneko gubhaimenenje na bhakilishitu na bhakaataganjeje ntima gubhajabhulenje.
