Acts 26
1 Agrippa sayde vnto Paul: thou arte permitted to speake for thy selfe. Then Paul stretched forth the honde and answered for him selfe.
Iti gwa, uAgripa akamutambuila uPaulo, 'Ugombigwe kitambuilya.' Uugwa uPaulo akagoola u mukono nuakwe akitambuilya iti.
2 I thynke my selfe happy kynge Agrippa because I shall answere this daye before the of all the thinges wherof I am accused of ye Iewes
“Kiona ni munya ulowa, Mutemi Agripa, iti kituma u usemelwa nuane ntongeela ako lelo ku usemelwa wihi nua Ayahudi.
3 namely because thou arte experte in all customes and questions which are amonge the Iewes. Wherfore I beseche the to heare me paciently.
Lukulu, ku nsoko u ewe ingi wi mulingi nua ntendo nia Ayahudi ni makolyo. Iti gwa kulompa untegeelye ku ugimya.
4 My lyvynge of a chylde which was at the fyrst amoge myne awne nacion at Ierusalem knowe all the Iewes
Tai, i Ayahudi ihi alingile iti nai nikie puma u ugalimanga nuane mu ingu nuane uko ku Yerusalemu.
5 which knew me from ye beginnynge yf they wolde testifie it. For after the most straytest secte of oure laye lyved I a pharisaye.
Aningile puma u ng'wandyo hangi atakiwe kugomba kina ai nikiie anga Mufarisayo, ikumbiko ni likete u uambiila tai utaki mu kizindaalo ni kitu.
6 And now I stond and am iudged for the hope of the promes made of God vnto oure fathers:
Itungili nimikile apa namulwe ku nsoko unene naligozee ilago naiza Itunda ai ulitumile ni atata itu.
7 vnto which promes oure. xii. tribes instantly servynge God daye and nyght hope to come. For which hopes sake kynge Agrippa am I accused of the Iewes.
Ili ingi ilago naiza i ndugu yitu ikumi na ibiili ai isumbiiye kusingiilya anga amipoelye Itunda ku ngulu utiku nu mung'wi. hangi kunsoko a uhuiili uwu, mutemi Agripa, kina i Ayahudi akunsemela.
8 Why shuld it be thought a thinge vncredible vnto you that god shuld rayse agayne the deed?
Ku niki wihi kati anyu usigile ingi ikuilwa kina Itunda wi iusha i ashi?
9 I also verely thought in my selfe that I ought to do many cotrary thinges clene agaynst the name of Iesus of Nazareth:
Itungo ling'wi ai nsigile mukola kina ai nziituma makani idu ku lina nilang'wa Yesu nua ku Nazareti.
10 which thinge I also dyd in Ierusalem. Where many of the sainctes I shut vp in preson and had receaved auctorite of ye hye prestes. And whe they were put to deeth I gave the sentence.
Ai nitumile aya mu Yerusalemu; Ai niatungile i ahuiili idu mu kadulumu, hangi ai natulaa nu uhumi kupuma ku akulu nia akuhani kituma iti; ni matungo niakubulagwa, ai nikua kula kitalao.
11 And I punysshed them ofte in every synagoge and compelled them to blaspheme: and was yet more mad apon them and persecuted the even vnto straunge cities.
Nkua idu ai niapisiilya mu matekeelo ihi hangi ai ngemile kuazipya auhite u uhuiili nuao. Ai nkete ikuo nangaluu migulya ao hangi ai niazunsilye ga nu mu isali nia uziila
12 About the which thinges as I went to Damasco with auctorite and licence of the hye Prestes
Matungo nai natulaa kituma aya, ainongoe ku Dameski, nize nkete u uhumi nu ulagiiligwa kupuma ku akuhani ni akulu,
13 even at myddaye (o kynge) I sawe in ye waye a lyght from heven above the brightnes of the sunne shyne rounde about me and them which iorneyed with me.
nai nikatula munzila matungo a mung'wi, Mutemi, nikihenga welu kupuma kilunde nai watula utaki kukila i mpasu hangi ukelya ku upilimikiilya unene ni antu nai atula atungile u muhinzo palung'wi nu nene.
14 When we were all fallen to the erth I hearde a voyce speakynge vnto me and sayinge in ye Hebrue tonge: Saul Saul why persecutest thou me? It is harde for the to kicke agaynste the pricke.
Usese kihi nai kikagwa pihi, ai nigulye luli lukitambulya nu nene luzeligitya mu ntambu a Kiebrania; 'Sauli, Sauli ku niki ukunaja? Ingi ikaku kitalako ku ukua ilambi u mushokoo.
15 And I sayde: Who arte thou lorde? And he sayde I am Iesus whom thou persecutest.
Papo nikaligitya, 'U ewe ingi nyenyu, Mukulu? uMukulu akasukiilya, ' Unene ingiYesu naiza ukunaja.
16 But ryse and stond vp on thy fete. For I have apered vnto the for this purpose to make the a minister and a witnes both of tho thinges which thou hast sene and of tho thinges in the which I will appere vnto the
Itungili humbuka wimike ku migulu ako; nsoko ku isigo ili unene nigeeleka kitalako, nukuhoie kutula wi munya mulimo hangi mu kuiili migulya a makani naiza ulingile kutula unene itungili ni makani ni nikakulagiila panyambele;
17 delyverynge the from the people and from ye gentyls vnto which nowe I sende the
hangi Nikakuguna kupuma ku antu ni anyaingu niize ku ulagiilya,
18 to open their eyes that they myght turne from darcknes vnto lyght and from the power of Satan vnto God that they maye receave forgevenes of synnes and inheritauce amonge the which are sanctified by fayth in me.
kupitya i miho ao nu kuaheja mu kiti kulongola mu welu nu kupuma mu ngulu nia mulugu amupilukile Itunda; iti alije kusingiilya kupuma kung'wa Itunda ulekelwa nua milandu nu usali naza nia inkiiye awo nai niabague ku uhuiili nu ukoli kitalane.
19 Wherfore kynge Agrippa I was not disobedient vnto the hevenly vision:
Iti gwa, mutemi Agripa, shanga ai nihumile kupiluka u muloto nua kilunde,
20 but shewed fyrst vnto them of Damasco and at Ierusalem and thorow out all the costes of Iewry and to the gentyls that they shuld repent and turne to God and do the ryght workes of repentaunce.
kuiti, ku awo niakoli mu Dameski hanza, ni uugwa ku Yerusalemu ni ihi ihi nuku Yudea, hangi ga ku antu ni a mahi mangiiza, ai ntanantilye kina ile itunu nu kumupilukila Itunda, itume i ntendo ni itakiwe kila itunu.
21 For this cause the Iewes caught me in the temple and went about to kyll me.
Ku nsoko iyo i Ayahudi ai amambile mi itekeelo, akagema kumbulaga.
22 Neverthelesse I obtayned helpe of God and cotynew vnto this daye witnessyng bothe to small and to greate saying none other thinges then those which the prophetes and Moses dyd saye shuld come
Itunda unzaiiye kupikiila itungili, iti gwa nimikaa nu ku kuiila ku antu nia nakanda nu ku awo niakulu migulya a ayo naiza anyakidagu nu Musa ai aligitilye akupumila ni shanga ingiiza;
23 that Christ shulde suffre and that he shuld be the fyrst that shulde ryse from deeth and shuld shewe lyght vnto the people and the gentyls.
kina uKristo kusinja ukagigwa hangi ukutula wang'wandyo kiuka kupuma mu ashi nu kutanantya u welu ku Ayahudi nu ku anyaingu.
24 As he thus answered for him selfe: Festus sayde with a lowde voyce: Paul thou arte besides thy selfe. Moche learnynge hath made the mad.
uPaulo nai wakamala kitambuilya, uFesto ai uligitilye ku luli lukulu, 'Paulo, u ewe wi muhali! kilingi kako kakutendilee utule wimuhali.
25 And Paul sayde: I am not mad most dere Festus: but speake the wordes of trueth and sobernes.
Kuiti uPaulo akaligitya, Unene shanga ni muhali, mukulu Festo; kuiti ku ugimya kuligitya i makani nai a tai ntili.
26 The kynge knoweth of these thinges before whom I speke frely: nether thynke I that eny of these thinges are hydden fro him. For this thinge was not done in a corner.
Ku nsoko mutemi ulingile kutula i makani aya; ni iti, kuligitya ku ulyuuku kitalakwe; ku nsoko ili shanga ai litumilwe anga ku mpelo.
27 Kynge Agrippa belevest thou ye prophetes? I wote well thou belevest.
Itii, uhuiie i anyakidagu, Mutemi Agripa? Ningile kina uhuiie.
28 Agrippa sayde vnto Paul: Sumwhat thou bringest me in mynde for to be come a Christen.
uAgripa akamuila uPaulo, 'Ku itungo ikupi uhumile kumpema unene nu kuntenda ni Mukristo?
29 And Paul sayd: I wolde to God that not only thou: but also all that heare me to daye were not sumwhat only but altogeder soche as I am except these bondes.
uPaulo akaligitya, “Kumulompa Itunda kina, ku itungo ikupi ang'wi ilipu, shanga u ewe du, ila ihi ga niantegeeye i lelo, atule anga unene, kuiti bila minyororo iyi na kadulumu.”
30 And when he had thus spoken the kynge rose vp and the debite and Bernice and they that sate with them.
Uugwa u mutemi ai wimikile, nu liwali, nu Bernike ga, ni awo nai akoli ikie palung'wi ni enso,
31 And when they were gone aparte they talked betwene them selves sayinge: This man doeth nothinge worthy of deeth nor of bondes.
nai ahegile mu ugalagalo, ai itambuie enso ku enso nu kuligitya, 'Muntu uyu shanga utakiwe insha ang'wi kitungo.
32 Then sayde Agrippa vnto Festus: This man myght have bene lowsed yf he had not appealed vnto Cesar.
uAgripa akamuila uFesto, “Muntu uyu aza uhumile kuikwa ilyuuku anga aza wahite kutema u rufaa kung'wa Kaisari.”
