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.
Agripa alobaki na Polo: — Napesi yo nzela ya koloba. Boye, Polo atombolaki loboko mpe abandaki kosamba:
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
— Mokonzi Agripa, nazali na esengo mingi ya kosamba lelo liboso na yo, na tina na makambo nyonso oyo Bayuda bafundeli ngai,
3 namely because thou arte experte in all customes and questions which are amonge the Iewes. Wherfore I beseche the to heare me paciently.
pamba te oyebi malamu bizaleli mpe tembe ya Bayuda. Boye nasengi na yo ete ozala na motema monene mpo na koyoka ngai.
4 My lyvynge of a chylde which was at the fyrst amoge myne awne nacion at Ierusalem knowe all the Iewes
Bayuda nyonso bayebi evandeli na ngai, wuta na bomwana na ngai, kobanda na ebandeli ya bomoi na ngai, kati na ekolo na ngai, mpe ezala kati na Yelusalemi.
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.
Bayebi ngai wuta kala mpe bakoki kotatola, soki balingi, ete natambolisaki bomoi na ngai lokola Mofarizeo, na botosi makasi ya mibeko, ndenge lingomba na biso esengaka.
6 And now I stond and am iudged for the hope of the promes made of God vnto oure fathers:
Mpe nazali kosamba lelo mpo na elikya na ngai kati na elaka oyo Nzambe apesaki na bakoko na biso.
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.
Bato ya mabota na biso zomi na mibale basalelaki Nzambe, butu mpe moyi, na kolemba te, mpo ete bazalaki na elikya ete bakomona kokokisama ya elaka yango. Mokonzi Agripa, ezali kaka mpo na elikya yango nde Bayuda bafundi ngai.
8 Why shuld it be thought a thinge vncredible vnto you that god shuld rayse agayne the deed?
Mpo na nini, kati na bino, bozali kondima te ete Nzambe akoki kosekwisa bakufi?
9 I also verely thought in my selfe that I ought to do many cotrary thinges clene agaynst the name of Iesus of Nazareth:
Ngai moko mpe nazalaki liboso kokanisa ete esengeli na ngai kosala nyonso oyo ekoki kosalema, mpo na kotelemela Kombo ya Yesu ya 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.
Ezali mosala yango nde nasalaki kati na Yelusalemi: natiaki basantu ebele na boloko, na ndingisa ya bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe; boye, tango bazalaki koboma bango, ngai mpe nazalaki kondima.
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.
Kati na bandako nyonso ya mayangani, nazalaki mbala mingi kotambola mpo na kopesa bango bitumbu mpe kotinda bango na makasi ete bafinga Yesu-Klisto. Na zuwa na ngai oyo eleka ndelo, nazalaki kolanda bango kino na bingumba ya bapaya mpo na konyokola bango.
12 About the which thinges as I went to Damasco with auctorite and licence of the hye Prestes
Ezali mpo na yango nde nakendeki na Damasi, na bokonzi mpe na etinda ya bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe.
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.
Mokonzi, na ngonga ya midi, wana nazalaki kokende, namonaki pole moko kowuta na likolo, elekaki kutu ata kongenga ya moyi; pole yango ezipaki ngai mpe bato oyo bazalaki kotambola elongo na ngai.
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.
Tokweyaki biso nyonso na mabele, mpe nayokaki mongongo moko koloba na ngai na lokota ya Arami: « Saulo, Saulo, mpo na nini ozali konyokola Ngai? Ezali pasi mpo na yo komibamba na basende. »
15 And I sayde: Who arte thou lorde? And he sayde I am Iesus whom thou persecutest.
Bongo natunaki: « Nkolo, yo nani? » Nkolo azongisaki: « Ngai, nazali Yesu oyo yo ozali konyokola.
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
Kasi lamuka mpe telema! Pamba te namimonisi epai na yo mpo na kokomisa yo mosali na Ngai mpe motatoli ya makambo oyo osili komona, mpe ya makambo oyo nakolakisa yo na sima.
17 delyverynge the from the people and from ye gentyls vnto which nowe I sende the
Nakokangola yo wuta na maboko ya bato ya ekolo na yo mpe na maboko ya bato ya bikolo ya bapaya. Nakotinda yo epai na bango
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.
mpo ete ofungola bango miso, olongola bango na molili mpe omema bango na pole; mpo ete olongola bango na se ya bokonzi ya Satana mpe omema bango epai ya Nzambe, na tina ete bazwa bolimbisi ya masumu mpe libula kati na bato oyo babulisama na nzela ya kondima kati na Ngai. »
19 Wherfore kynge Agrippa I was not disobedient vnto the hevenly vision:
Boye, mokonzi Agripa, wuta tango wana, nandimaki kotosa emoniseli oyo ewutaki na Likolo.
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.
Nateyaki liboso bavandi ya Damasi; sima, nateyaki bavandi ya Yelusalemi, ya Yuda mobimba mpe ya bikolo ya bapaya: nateyaki bango ete basengeli kobongola mitema, kozonga epai ya Nzambe mpe, na nzela ya misala na bango, kolakisa penza ete babongoli mitema.
21 For this cause the Iewes caught me in the temple and went about to kyll me.
Ezali kaka mpo na tina oyo nde Bayuda bakangaki ngai kati na Tempelo mpe balukaki koboma ngai.
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
Kasi kino lelo, Nzambe azali kobatela ngai; yango wana natelemi awa mpo na kotatola liboso ya bato pamba mpe bato minene. Nazali koteya makambo mosusu te, bobele makambo oyo basakoli mpe Moyize baloba ete ekokokisama solo:
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.
Klisto akomona pasi mpe akozala moto ya liboso ya kosekwa kati na bakufi mpo na kosakola pole ya lobiko epai ya Bayuda mpe epai ya bato ya bikolo ya bapaya.
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.
Wana Polo azalaki nanu koloba, Festisi akataki ye maloba mpe agangelaki ye: — Ozali na liboma, Polo! Boyebi oyo otondi na yango ekomisi yo liboma!
25 And Paul sayde: I am not mad most dere Festus: but speake the wordes of trueth and sobernes.
Polo azongisaki: — Tata mokonzi Festisi, nazali na liboma te. Makambo oyo nazali koloba ezali ya solo mpe ezali penza na nzela.
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.
Mokonzi Agripa kutu ayebi makambo oyo malamu; yango wana nazali koloba na molende nyonso liboso na ye. Nandimisami ete abungi ata likambo moko te kati na makambo yango, pamba te esalemaki na nkuku te.
27 Kynge Agrippa belevest thou ye prophetes? I wote well thou belevest.
Mokonzi Agripa, boni, ondimaka basakoli? Nayebi malamu ete ondimaka bango.
28 Agrippa sayde vnto Paul: Sumwhat thou bringest me in mynde for to be come a Christen.
Agripa alobaki na Polo: — Okanisi ete okoki kondimisa ngai kokoma Moklisto kaka na mwa tango moke?
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.
Polo azongisaki: — Ezala na tango molayi to na tango moke, nazali kosambela Nzambe ete, yo moko kaka te, kasi elongo na bato nyonso oyo bazali koyoka ngai lelo, bokoma lokola ngai, longola kaka minyololo oyo!
30 And when he had thus spoken the kynge rose vp and the debite and Bernice and they that sate with them.
Wana azalaki koloba bongo, mokonzi, moyangeli, Berenise mpe bato nyonso oyo bazalaki elongo na bango batelemaki.
31 And when they were gone aparte they talked betwene them selves sayinge: This man doeth nothinge worthy of deeth nor of bondes.
Wana bazalaki kobima, balobanaki bango na bango: — Moto oyo asali mabe ata moko te oyo ekoki komemela ye etumbu ya kufa to ya boloko.
32 Then sayde Agrippa vnto Festus: This man myght have bene lowsed yf he had not appealed vnto Cesar.
Agripa alobaki na Festisi: — Soki moto oyo asengaki te kosamba liboso ya Sezare, esengelaki kotika ye.
