Acts 17
1 As they made their iorney thorow Amphipolis and Appolonia they came to Thessalonica where was a synagoge of the Iewes.
Kwa kupitira Amfipoli na Apoloniya wagenditi mpaka Tesaloniki kweni kuweriti na numba ya Mlungu ya Wayawudi.
2 And Paul as his maner was went in vnto them and thre saboth doyes declared oute of the scripture vnto them
Paulu kingiriti nawomberi mnumba ya Mlungu ntambu yaiweriti shitiba shakuwi, kwa mashaka matatu ga kwoyera kalitakuziyana nawomberi kwa Malembu Mananagala.
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.
Pakayoweriti na kulagiziya handa imubidi Kristu kutabika na kuzyuka kulawa kwawahowiti kawagambira, “Yesu mweni neni numubwera kwamwenga ndo Kristu.”
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.
Wamu wawu wajimiliti wayingira na Paulu na Sila. Viravi, walanga ngulu ya Wagiriki wawamguwiriti Mlungu pamwera na wadala wavuwa wa ntambu ya kunani, wayingiriti naomberi.
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.
Kumbiti Wayawudi wawona weya, wawatola wafizuli kusoku, watenda shipinga na kujega fuju kumjini koseri. Wayingira numba ya Yasoni watumbiriti kumpata amu Paulu na Sila su wawajegi paweru.
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
Kumbiti wawapata ndili na hangu wamkwegiti Yasoni pamwera na walongu wamonga mpaka kwa wakulu wa lushi, washowangana, “Wantu awa wawera wankupavuluga pasipanu poseri na vinu wa panu kumjini.
7 which Iason hath receaved prevely. And these all do contrary to the elders of Cesar affirmynge another kynge one Iesus.
Yasoni kawashemera ukaya kwakuwi. Woseri wankutenda shigalambuku sha lagaliru lya Kaisari pawatakula eti, kwana mfalumi yumonga yawamshema Yesu.”
8 And they troubled the people and the officers of the cite when they hearde these thinges.
Kwa visoweru avi wawatuliti lyoga wakulu wa kumjini na shipinga sha wantu.
9 And when they were sufficiently answered of Iason and of the other they let the goo.
Yawatenda Yasoni na wayaguwi walaviyi zamana, shakapanu wawaleka wagendi zawu.
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.
Pashiru, walongu walii wawahimiziya Paulu na Sila wagendi Bereya. Katepu hera pawayingiriti aku, wagenditi mnumba ya Mlungu ya Wayawudi.
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.
Wantu wa aku waweriti wapikinira nentu kuliku wantu walii wa Tesaloniki. Wauwankiti ujumbi ulii kwa lwamata lukulu, wawera wankugalolalola Malembu Mananagala kila lishaka, su kulola handa galii gawatakuliti Paulu na Sila gaweriti nakaka.
12 And many of the beleved: also of worshipfull weme which were Grekes and of men not a feawe.
Wavuwa wawu wajimiriti na viraa wadala wa Shigiriki wa ntambu ya kunani na wapalu viraa.
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.
Kumbiti, Wayawudi wa Tesaloniki pawavimaniti handa Paulu kaweriti kankubwera shisoweru sha Mlungu aku Bereya, wagenditi aku. Wanja kutenda fuju na kusonguziya shipinga sha wantu.
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.
Walongu walii wawapelekiti Paulu kanongola kagendi kumbwani kumbiti Sila na Timotewu wasigaliti Beroya.
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.
Walongu walii wawapelekiti Paulu wagenditi pamwera nayomberi mpaka Aseni. Shakapanu, wawuya pamuhera na malagaliru kulawa kwa Paulu handa Sila na Timotewu wamfati kanongola ntambu yaiwezekana.
16 Whyll Paul wayted for them at Attens his sprete was moved in him to se the cite geven to worshippinge of ymages.
Paulu pakaweriti kankuwahepa Sila na Timotewu aku Aseni, moyu gwakuwi gukalala nentu pakawoniti ntambu lushi alu paluweriti lumema shinyagu sha wamlungu.
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.
Kalitakuziana na Wayawudi na wantu wamonga yawamluwa Mlungu munumba ya Mlungu, na kila lishaka kaweriti na matakuzianu mahali paweru pamwera na woseri walii wawalawiriti.
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.
Wamonga wawafatiti falisafa ya Epikuru na Staiku walikakatala na yomberi. Wamonga watakuliti, “Kafira kutakula shishi ayu mtuwa visoweru?” Toziya Paulu kaweriti kankubwera kuusu Yesu na kuusu uzyuka, wamonga watakuliti, “lwonikana handa kankubwera kuusu milungu wa shihenja.”
19 And they toke him and brought him into Marsestrete sayinge: maye we not knowe what this newe doctrine wher of thou speakest is?
Hangu wamtoliti Paulu, wamjegiti Aleopagu, Watakula, “Tufira kuvimana shitwatira ashi shasyayi shaguweriti gwanguyowelera.
20 For thou bringest straunge tydynges to oure eares. We wolde knowe therfore what these thinges meane.
Vintu vimonga tuvipikaniriti kwa makutu getu viwonikana weri viloja kwatwenga. Tufira kuvimana vitwatira avi nvina mana gaa.”
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.
Wantu wa Aseni na wenikaya wamonga wa aku waweriti wankutumiya shipindi shawu shoseri kuligambiziyana na kupikinira visoweru vyasyayi.
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.
Su, Paulu kagolokiti kuulongolu kumdamu kwa Aleopagu, katakula, “Wenikaya wa Aseni! Mona kuwera mwenga, kwa vyoseri, ndo wantu wa dini nentu.
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.
Mana panweriti nangupita aku na aku panola vinyagu vyenu vya kuguwira moniti pahala pa kutambikira pamu palembitwi ‘Kwa Mlungu yakamanika ndiri!’ Su, ayu yamjimira pota kuvimana, ndomweni yanumubwera kwamwenga.
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
Mlungu yakanyawiti pasipanu na vyoseri yaviweraamu, ndo Mtuwa gwa kumpindi na isi, yomberi kalivaga ndiri mnumba nkulu za kuluwa Mlungu yazinyawitwi na wantu.
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
Ama katendiritwi ndiri kwa mawoku ga wantu kuwera kafira shoseri, toziya mweni ndo yakawapanana woseri ukomu, yakawatenda wantu wapumuli na kuwapanana kila shintu.
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
Kulawirana na muntu yumu kanyawiti maisi goseri na kugatenda galikali pasipanu poseri. Kaamuiti na kupanga pamberi nakamu ndii na koshi maisi aga megalikali.
27 that they shuld seke God yf they myght fele and fynde him though he be not farre from every one of vs.
Katenditi hangu, su maisi aga gapati kumfata, na handa vila kwa kupapasiya papaya, gapati kumfikira. Ata hangu kumbiti, Mlungu kapatali ndiri na kila yumu gwenu.
28 For in him we lyve move and have oure beynge as certayne of youre awne Poetes sayde. For we are also his generacion.
Handa yakatakuliti muntu yumu, ‘Mngati mwakuwi yomberi twenga tulikala, twankugenda na twankupumula!’ Ndo gambira washaili wenu wamonga ntambu yawatakuliti, ‘Twenga twawana wakuwi.’
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.
Paiwera twenga twawana wa Mlungu, tufiruwa ndiri kumuhola Mlungu gambira zahabu ama mpiya ama ata libuwi lyalisongolitwi na wantu kwa kutulwa mng'ereng'etu.
30 And the tyme of this ignoraunce God regarded not: but now he byddeth all men every where repent
Mlungu katenda gambira kawona ndiri vipindi vilii wantu pawaweriti wangalimahala. Kumbiti vinu, kahimiziya wantu woseri kila pahali waleki vidoda vyawatenda.
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.
Toziya katula lishaka lyeni hakapatozi pasipanu kwa kutenda galii yagafiriziya Mlungu kwajili ya muntu yumu yakamsyaguliti. Mlungu kawalanguziya woseri shitwatira ashi kwa kumzyukisiya muntu ayu kulawa kwawahowiti!”
32 When they hearde of ye resurreccion from deeth some mocked and other sayde: we will heare the agayne of this matter.
Pawampikiniriti Paulu kankutakula kuusu vitwatira vya kuzyuka kwa wahowiti, wamonga wawu waguwiti kwa kusekelera, kumbiti wamonga walongiti, “Tufira kupikinira kayi kuusu shitwatira ashi”
33 So Paul departed from amonge them.
Hangu, Paulu kawalekiti, kalawiti pamdamu.
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.
Kumbiti wantu wavuwa ndiri wagenditi pamuhera na yomberi, wawera wajimira. Muwamu mwawu waweriti Dionisiwu gwa Aleopagu na mdala yumu yawamshema Damari na wamonga wawu.
