< Acts 17 >

1 As they made their iorney thorow Amphipolis and Appolonia they came to Thessalonica where was a synagoge of the Iewes.
Na rĩrĩ, maarĩkia gũtuĩkanĩria Amufipoli na Apolonia, magĩkinya Thesalonike, kũrĩa kwarĩ na thunagogi ya Ayahudi.
2 And Paul as his maner was went in vnto them and thre saboth doyes declared oute of the scripture vnto them
Paũlũ agĩtoonya thunagogi, o ta ũrĩa aamenyerete, na mĩthenya ĩtatũ ya Thabatũ akĩaranĩria nao kuuma Maandĩko-inĩ,
3 openynge and allegynge that Christ must nedes have suffred and rysen agayne from deeth and that this Iesus was Christ whom (sayde he) I preache to you.
akĩmataarĩria na akĩmaiguithia atĩ kwarĩ o nginya Kristũ anyariirĩke na ariũke kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ. Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Jesũ ũyũ ndĩramũhe ũhoro wake-rĩ, nĩwe Kristũ.”
4 And some of them beleved and came and companyed with Paul and Sylas: also of the honourable Grekes a greate multitude and of the chefe wemen not a feawe.
Ayahudi amwe magĩtĩkĩra ũhoro ũcio na magĩtuĩka a thiritũ ya Paũlũ na Sila, o ũndũ ũmwe na gĩkundi kĩnene kĩa Ayunani etigĩri-Ngai, o na atumia aingĩ arĩa maarĩ igweta.
5 But the Iewes which beleved not havynge indignacio toke vnto the evyll men which were vagabondes and gadered a company and set all the cite on a roore and made asaute vnto the housse of Iason and sought to bringe the out to the people.
No Ayahudi makĩigua ũiru; nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩcaria andũ arĩa maarĩ mĩtugo mĩũru kuuma ndũnyũ, makĩmacookanĩrĩria gĩkundi, na makĩambĩrĩria kũruta ngũĩ kũu itũũra-inĩ. Nao makĩhanyũka kwa Jasoni gwetha Paũlũ na Sila nĩgeetha mamoimie nja kũrĩ kĩrĩndĩ.
6 But when they founde them not they drue Iason and certayne brethren vnto the heedes of the cite cryinge: these that trouble the worlde are come hydder also
No rĩrĩa maamaagire, magĩkururia Jasoni na ariũ a Ithe witũ amwe, makĩmarehe kũrĩ anene a itũũra, makĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ: “Andũ aya nĩo marehete thĩĩna thĩ yothe, na rĩu nĩmookĩte gũkũ,
7 which Iason hath receaved prevely. And these all do contrary to the elders of Cesar affirmynge another kynge one Iesus.
na Jasoni nĩamanyiitĩte ũgeni thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yake. Othe nĩmarakararia watho wa Kaisari, makoiga atĩ nĩ kũrĩ na mũthamaki ũngĩ wĩtagwo Jesũ.”
8 And they troubled the people and the officers of the cite when they hearde these thinges.
Rĩrĩa maaiguire ũguo, kĩrĩndĩ kĩu na anene a itũũra magĩtangĩka mũno.
9 And when they were sufficiently answered of Iason and of the other they let the goo.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo magĩĩtia Jasoni na andũ arĩa angĩ maarĩ nao irĩhi rĩa kũmarũgamĩrĩra, magĩcooka makĩmarekereria mathiĩ.
10 And the brethren immediatly sent awaye Paul and Sylas by nyght vnto Berrea. Which when they were come thyther they entred into ye synagoge of the Iewes.
Na kwarĩĩkia gũtuka-rĩ, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ magĩtũma Paũlũ na Sila mathiĩ Berea. Nao maakinya kuo, magĩtoonya thunagogi ya Ayahudi.
11 These were the noblest of byrthe amonge the of Thessalonia which receaved the worde wt all diligence of mynde and searched ye scriptures dayly whether those thinges were even so.
Na rĩrĩ, Ayahudi a Berea maarĩ a ngoro njega gũkĩra Ayahudi a Thesalonike, nĩgũkorwo nĩmamũkĩrire ndũmĩrĩri marĩ na wendo mũingĩ, na magathuthuuragia Maandĩko o mũthenya, nĩgeetha moone kana ũrĩa Paũlũ aameeraga warĩ ũhoro wa ma.
12 And many of the beleved: also of worshipfull weme which were Grekes and of men not a feawe.
Ayahudi aingĩ nĩmetĩkirie, o ũndũ ũmwe na atumia aingĩ a Ayunani arĩa maarĩ igweta, o na andũ arũme aingĩ Ayunani.
13 When the Iewes of Thessalonia had knowledge that ye worde of God was preached of Paul at Berrea they came there and moved the people.
Rĩrĩa Ayahudi a Thesalonike maamenyire atĩ Paũlũ nĩahunjagia kiugo kĩa Ngai kũu Berea-rĩ, magĩthiĩ kũu o nakuo, magĩthogotha kĩrĩndĩ na magĩgĩthũkia ngoro.
14 And then by and by ye brethre sent awaye Paul to goo as it were to ye see: but Sylas and Timotheus abode there still.
Hĩndĩ o ĩyo ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ magĩtũma Paũlũ athiĩ ndwere-inĩ cia iria, no Sila na Timotheo magĩtigwo kũu Berea.
15 And they that gyded Paul brought him vnto Attens and receaved a comaundment vnto Sylas and Timotheus for to come to him at once and came their waye.
Nao andũ arĩa moimagaririe Paũlũ, makĩmũkinyia Athene, na magĩcooka marĩ na ndũmĩrĩri ya Sila na Timotheo atĩ mathiĩ kũrĩ Paũlũ narua o ta ũrĩa kũngĩhoteka.
16 Whyll Paul wayted for them at Attens his sprete was moved in him to se the cite geven to worshippinge of ymages.
Paũlũ o ametereire kũu Athene-rĩ, nĩatangĩkire ngoro mũno nĩkuona ũrĩa itũũra rĩu rĩaiyũrĩte mĩhianano.
17 Then he disputed in the synagoge wt the Iewes and with the devout persones and in the market dayly with the that came vnto him.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩaranagĩria na Ayahudi o na Ayunani arĩa meeyamũrĩire Ngai kũu thunagogi-inĩ, o na ningĩ akaaragia ndũnyũ-inĩ o mũthenya na andũ arĩa maakoragwo ho.
18 Certayne philosophers of ye Epicures and of ye stoyckes disputed with him. And some ther were which sayde: what will this babler saye. Other sayd: he semeth to be a tydynges bringer of newe devyls because he preached vnto them Iesus and the resurreccion.
Nakĩo gĩkundi kĩa Aepikurio na Asitoiko, arutani a ũũgĩ, makĩambĩrĩria gũkararania nake. Amwe ao makĩũria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ wa mũhuhu arageria kuuga atĩa?” Nao andũ arĩa angĩ makiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ta mũndũ ũrahunjia ũhoro wa ngai ngʼeni.” Moigaga ũguo tondũ Paũlũ aahunjagia Ũhoro Mwega wa Jesũ o na wa kũriũka gwake.
19 And they toke him and brought him into Marsestrete sayinge: maye we not knowe what this newe doctrine wher of thou speakest is?
Hĩndĩ ĩyo makĩmuoya na makĩmũtwara mbere ya mũcemanio wa Areopago, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “No twende kũmenya atĩrĩ, ũrutani ũyũ mwerũ ũrarutana nĩ ũrĩkũ?
20 For thou bringest straunge tydynges to oure eares. We wolde knowe therfore what these thinges meane.
Tũraigua ũgĩtwarĩria maũndũ mageni, na nĩtũkwenda kũmenya ũrĩa moigĩte.”
21 For all the Attenians and straungers which were there gave the selves to nothinge els but ether to tell or to heare newe tydynges.
(Andũ othe a Athene na andũ a kũngĩ arĩa maatũũraga kuo matirĩ ũndũ ũngĩ meekaga tiga kwaria na gũthikĩrĩria ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mageni).
22 Paul stode in the myddes of Marse strete and sayde: ye men of Attens I perceave that in all thinges ye are to supersticious.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Paũlũ akĩrũgama mũcemanio-inĩ wa kĩama kĩu gĩetagwo Areopago akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Andũ aya a Athene, nĩnguona atĩ maũndũ-inĩ mothe mũrĩ andũ a ndini mũno.
23 For as I passed by and behelde the maner how ye worship youre goddes I founde an aultre wher in was written: vnto ye vnknowen god. Whom ye then ignoratly worship him shewe I vnto you.
Nĩgũkorwo o na nĩnyonete kĩgongona kĩandĩkĩtwo maandĩko maya: KŨRĨ NGAI ĨRĨA ĨTOĨO, rĩrĩa ngoretwo ngĩceera na ngarora wega indo cianyu iria nyamũre cia kũhooywo. Na rĩrĩ, kĩrĩa mũhooyaga mũtooĩ nĩkĩo ngũmũhe ũhoro wakĩo.
24 God that made the worlde and all that are in it seynge that he is Lorde of heven and erth he dwelleth not in temples made with hondes
“Ngai ũrĩa wombire thĩ na indo ciothe iria irĩ kuo nĩwe Mwathani wa igũrũ na thĩ, na ndatũũraga hekarũ ciakĩtwo na moko.
25 nether is worshipped with mennes hondes as though he neded of eny thinge seinge he him selfe geveth lyfe and breeth to all men every where
Na ndatungatagwo na moko ma andũ, ta abataire kĩndũ, tondũ we mwene nĩwe ũheaga andũ muoyo na mĩhũmũ o na indo iria ingĩ ciothe.
26 and hath made of one bloud all nacions of men for to dwell on all the face of the erthe and hath assigned before how longe tyme and also the endes of their inhabitacion
Kuuma harĩ mũndũ ũmwe, nĩathondekire ndũrĩrĩ ciothe cia andũ nĩguo matũũre kũndũ guothe thĩ; na agĩtua mahinda mao o na kũndũ kũrĩa megũtũũra.
27 that they shuld seke God yf they myght fele and fynde him though he be not farre from every one of vs.
Ngai eekire ũguo nĩgeetha andũ mamũmaathe na hihi mamũhambatĩrie mamuone, o na gũtuĩka ndarĩ haraaya na o ũmwe witũ.
28 For in him we lyve move and have oure beynge as certayne of youre awne Poetes sayde. For we are also his generacion.
‘Nĩgũkorwo nĩ thĩinĩ wake tũtũũraga na tũgetwara, na tũgakorwo tũrĩ muoyo.’ O ta ũrĩa aandĩki amwe a nyĩmbo cianyu moigĩte atĩrĩ, ‘Ithuĩ tũrĩ a rũciaro rwake.’
29 For as moche then as we are the generacion of God we ought not to thynke that the godhed is lyke vnto golde silver or stone graven by crafte and ymaginacion of man.
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, kuona atĩ tũrĩ a rũciaro rwa Ngai, tũtiagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩciiria atĩ Ngai ahaana ta mũhianano wa thahabu kana wa betha, o na kana wa ihiga, ũrĩa ũthondeketwo na mũthugundĩre na ũũgĩ wa mũndũ.
30 And the tyme of this ignoraunce God regarded not: but now he byddeth all men every where repent
Mahinda ma tene Ngai ndaigana kũrũmbũiya ũhoro ũcio wa kwaga ũmenyo, no rĩu nĩathĩte andũ othe a kũndũ guothe merire.
31 because he hath apoynted a daye in the which he will iudge the worlde acordynge to ryghtewesses by that man whom he hath apoynted and hath offered faith to all men after that he had raysed him from deeth.
Nĩgũkorwo nĩatuĩte mũthenya ũrĩa agaatuĩra thĩ ciira na kĩhooto na ũndũ wa mũndũ ũrĩa athuurĩte. Nĩamenyithanĩtie ũndũ ũyũ kũrĩ andũ othe na ũndũ wa kũriũkia Jesũ kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ.”
32 When they hearde of ye resurreccion from deeth some mocked and other sayde: we will heare the agayne of this matter.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maiguire ũhoro wa kũriũka kwa arĩa akuũ, amwe ao magĩtheka, no angĩ makiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũkwenda gũkũigua ũkĩaria ũhoro ũcio hĩndĩ ĩngĩ.”
33 So Paul departed from amonge them.
Maarĩkia kuuga ũguo, Paũlũ akĩehera Kĩama-inĩ kĩu.
34 Howbeit certayne men clave vnto Paul and beleved amonge the which was Dionysius a senatour and a woman named Damaris and other with them.
Andũ mataarĩ aingĩ magĩtuĩka arũmĩrĩri a Paũlũ na magĩĩtĩkia. Ũmwe wao aarĩ Dionisio, mũndũ warĩ wa thiritũ ya Areopago, o na mũtumia wetagwo Damari, na angĩ maigana ũna.
