< Acts 14 >

1 And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.
Na rĩrĩ, Paũlũ na Baranaba marĩ kũu Ikonia, magĩtoonya thunagogi ya Ayahudi o ta mũtugo. Marĩ kũu makĩaria na ũhoti mũingĩ mũno o nginya Ayahudi aingĩ na andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ magĩĩtĩkia.
2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.
No Ayahudi arĩa maaregire gwĩtĩkia nĩmathogothire andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ, makĩmathũkia meciiria nĩgeetha mookĩrĩre ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ.
3 A long time therefore they abode speaking boldly in the Lord, who gave testimony to the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Paũlũ na Baranaba magĩikara kũu ihinda iraaya, makĩaria marĩ na ũcamba nĩ ũndũ wa Mwathani, o we wekĩrire ndũmĩrĩri ya wega wake hinya na ũndũ wa kũmahotithia kũringa ciama na morirũ.
4 But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.
Andũ a itũũra rĩu inene makĩgayũkana; amwe magĩĩtĩkania na Ayahudi, nao arĩa angĩ magĩĩtĩkania na atũmwo.
5 And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,
Nĩ kwarĩ na ndundu yathugundĩtwo nĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ na Ayahudi, hamwe na atongoria ao, nĩguo mameeke ũũru, na mamahũũre na mahiga nyuguto.
6 Being aware of it, they fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding region:
No nao makĩmenya ũhoro ũcio, na makĩũrĩra matũũra manene ma bũrũri wa Likaonia, na nĩmo Lisitera, na Deribe, o na bũrũri ũrĩa wagũthiũrũrũkĩirie,
7 And there they preached the gospel.
kũrĩa maathiire na mbere kũhunjia ũhoro mwega.
8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother’s womb, who had never walked:
Nakuo kũu Lisitera nĩ kwarĩ mũndũ warĩ mwonju magũrũ, na aatũũrĩte arĩ mwonju kuuma gũciarwo na ndetwarĩte na magũrũ o narĩ.
9 The same heard Paul speak: who steadfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,
Nake agĩthikĩrĩria Paũlũ akĩaria. Paũlũ aamũrora, akĩona atĩ aarĩ na wĩtĩkio wa kũhonio,
10 Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.
akĩmwĩta na mũgambo mũnene, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Rũgama na magũrũ maku!” Na o hĩndĩ ĩyo, mũndũ ũcio akĩrũga na igũrũ, akĩambĩrĩria gwĩtwara.
11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men.
Rĩrĩa gĩkundi kĩu kĩa andũ kĩonire ũrĩa Paũlũ eekĩte, gĩkĩanĩrĩra na rũthiomi rwa Likaonia gĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Ngai nĩciikũrũkĩte kũrĩ ithuĩ itariĩ ta andũ!”
12 And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercury, because he was the chief speaker.
Magĩĩta Baranaba Zeu, nake Paũlũ makĩmwĩta Herime tondũ nĩwe warĩ mwaria ũrĩa mũnene.
13 Then the priest of Jupiter, who was before their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.
Mũthĩnjĩri-ngai ya Zeu, ũrĩa hekarũ yake yarĩ o hau nja ya itũũra, akĩrehe ndegwa na mahũa maatumĩtwo ta thũmbĩ hau kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra inene, tondũ we na gĩkundi kĩu kĩa andũ nĩmendaga kũmarutĩra magongona.
14 Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they tore their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,
No rĩrĩa atũmwo acio Baranaba na Paũlũ maaiguire ũguo, magĩtembũranga nguo ciao, makĩhanyũka, magĩtoonya kũrĩ kĩrĩndĩ, makĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ,
15 And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach to you that ye should turn from these vanities to the living God, who made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are in them:
“Andũ aya, mũreka ũguo nĩkĩ? Ithuĩ tũrĩ o andũ ta inyuĩ. Tũmũreheire ũhoro mwega, wa kũmwĩra mũgarũrũke mũtigane na maũndũ marĩa matarĩ kĩene, mũcookerere Ngai ũrĩa ũtũũraga muoyo, o we ũrĩa wombire igũrũ na thĩ na iria na indo ciothe iria irĩ kuo.
16 Who in times past allowed all nations to walk in their own ways.
Tene, nĩarekereirie ndũrĩrĩ ciothe ithiiage na mĩthiĩre yacio nyene,
17 Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.
no ndaigana gwĩtiga atarĩ na ũira wa kuonania atĩ arĩ kuo: nĩamuonetie ũtugi na ũndũ wa kũmuurĩria mbura yumĩte igũrũ na kũmũhe magetha hĩndĩ ya kĩmera; nĩamũheaga irio nyingĩ na akaiyũria ngoro cianyu na gĩkeno.”
18 And with these sayings they scarce restrained the people, from doing sacrifice to them.
No o na maarĩtie ciugo icio, nĩ maarĩ na wĩra mũritũ wa kũgiria gĩkundi kĩu kĩa andũ kĩmarutĩre igongona.
19 And there came there certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.
Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo Ayahudi angĩ magĩũka moimĩte Antiokia na Ikonia, nao makĩguucĩrĩria gĩkundi kĩu kĩa andũ, gĩgĩcooka mwena wao. Gĩkundi kĩu gĩkĩhũũra Paũlũ na mahiga nyuguto, na gĩkĩmũkururia, gĩkĩmũruta nja ya itũũra, gĩĩciirĩtie nĩ mũkuũ.
20 But, as the disciples stood around him, he rose, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.
No arutwo maarĩkia kũmũrigiicĩria, agĩũkĩra agĩcooka itũũra-inĩ. Mũthenya ũcio ũngĩ warũmĩrĩire, we na Baranaba makiuma kũu magĩthiĩ Deribe.
21 And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch,
Paũlũ wa Baranaba makĩhunjia ũhoro mwega itũũra-inĩ rĩu na magĩtũma andũ aingĩ matuĩke arutwo. Magĩcooka makĩhũndũka magĩthiĩ Lisitera, na Ikonia, na Antiokia,
22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
magĩĩkagĩra arutwo hinya na kũmomĩrĩria nĩgeetha matũũre marũmĩtie wĩtĩkio. Makameeraga atĩrĩ, “No nginya ithuĩ tũgerere mathĩĩna-inĩ maingĩ nĩguo tũtoonye ũthamaki-inĩ wa Ngai.”
23 And when they had ordained for them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.
Paũlũ na Baranaba makĩmaamũrĩra athuuri a kanitha na makĩhooya Ngai mehingĩte kũrĩa irio, makĩmaneana kũrĩ Mwathani, o we ũrĩa meehokete.
24 And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.
Thuutha wa gũtuĩkanĩria Pisidia, magĩkinya Pamufilia,
25 And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:
na maarĩkia kũhunjia kiugo kũu Periga, magĩikũrũka magĩthiĩ Atalia.
26 And from there sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended from to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.
Moima Atalia makĩhaica marikabu, magĩcooka Antiokia, o kũrĩa maahoeirwo wega wa Ngai mbere nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra ũrĩa maarĩkĩtie kũruta.
27 And when they had come, and had gathered the church together, they reported all that God had done with them, and that he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.
Maakinya kũu magĩcookanĩrĩria andũ a kanitha hamwe, makĩmeera ũrĩa wothe Ngai ekĩte agereire harĩo na ũrĩa aahingũrĩire andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ mũrango wa gwĩtĩkia.
28 And there they abode a long time with the disciples.
Nao magĩikara na arutwo kũu ihinda iraaya.
