< Acts 28 >

1 When we had escaped, then they learned that the island was called Malta.
Yetufiike vunofu, tulyakagwile kuuti ikiponge kitambulua Malta.
2 The natives showed us uncommon kindness; for they kindled a fire and received us all, because of the present rain and because of the cold.
Avaanhu va palikaja na kwe kuti vakatuupilile uvuhugu vwa vulevule, pe valyapembile umwooto na pikutukaribisia tweeni, ulwakuva ifula ni mepo jikale jighendelela.
3 But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened on his hand.
Looli u Paulo ye akang'anisie unsigho ghwasanjala na kuvika pa mwooto, ilijoka ilidebe ilinya sumu likahuma mu sanjala sila ulwakuva lwa vufukefu vuula pe likin'yengelela mu luvoko lwa mweene.
4 When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet Justice has not allowed to live.”
Avaanhu va pa likaja pala yevalolile kwiiti ilijoka liswembela kuhuma muluvoko lwa mweneenevapuling'ana vavuo,”Umuunhu uju kyang'haani m'buudi junoadyeghile mu Nyanja looli uvwakyangani navukuntavula kukukala.”
5 However he shook off the creature into the fire, and wasn’t harmed.
Looli umweene akantaghila ilijoka ilio kumwooto nakapatile uvunangifu vwooni.
6 But they expected that he would have swollen or fallen down dead suddenly, but when they watched for a long time and saw nothing bad happen to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.
Aveene vakumughula afimbe inamu nambe aghue na kalingi na kufua. looliye nimulolile ku nsiki untali na kulola kuuti na kwelili lino lilivulevule kwa mweene wakabadilisia amasaghe ghavanave na kuuti alyyale unguluve.
7 Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us and courteously entertained us for three days.
Kange pala pipi palyale ni iisi jinojilyale kyuma kya m'baha wa kiponge, umuunhu juno itambulua pablio. Alatwupilile na pikututengelela ifighono fitatu.
8 The father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery. Paul entered in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.
Lulyahumile kuuti viise wa pablio jikam'bwene imungu ni namu ija kuhalisia. Na ju Paulo amulutile akifunya, akavika amavoko pa kyanya pa mwene na pikum'buvusia.
9 Then when this was done, the rest also who had diseases in the island came and were cured.
Yelihumile ili, avaanhu avange pa kiponge pala vano valyale vivavua voope vakaluta vakavuvusivua.
10 They also honored us with many honors; and when we sailed, they put on board the things that we needed.
Avaanhu vakatwoghopa nu vwoghofi uvukome. Panotukale tukuling'ania kukyula, vakatupelile fila fino tukafivombile.
11 After three months, we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose figurehead was “The Twin Brothers.”
Yeghakilile ameesi gha tatu, tulyaghendile mu nkate mu meli Iskanda jino jilyakolilue ni ng'ala pa kiaponge pala, jino avalongosi va jene valyale vanyalukolo va vili ava lipasa.
12 Touching at Syracuse, we stayed there three days.
Pano yetupumile mu likaja ilya sirakusa, tulikalile pala ivighono vi tatu.
13 From there we circled around and arrived at Rhegium. After one day, a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,
Kuhumila pala tukaghendile tukafike mulikaja ilya Regio. Ye kikilile ikighono kimo imepo ija kumavemba jilyahumile nakalingi, yefikilile ifighono fivili tukafikile mulikaja ilya Putoli.
14 where we found brothers, and were entreated to stay with them for seven days. So we came to Rome.
Ukuo kwe tukavavwene ava nyalukolo avange vakatupilile kukukala navoope ifighono lekela lubale. Kusila iji tukisile ku Rumi.
15 From there the brothers, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.
Kuhuma ukuo avanyalukolo vala, yevapulike imola isiitu, vakisile kukutwambilila ukuo kulighulilo ilya Apias ni Hoteli itatu. U Paulo ye avavwene avanyalukolo vala valyamongisie u Nfuluve pe akavika ni ngufu.
16 When we entered into Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard, but Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.
Pano ye twingile ku Roma, u Paulo akatavulilue kukukala mwene palikimo nu n'sikali jula juno alyale ikumulolela.
17 After three days Paul called together those who were the leaders of the Jews. When they had come together, he said to them, “I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,
Yefikilile ifighono fitatu u Paulo akavakemelile palikimo avaghosi vala vano valyale valongosi mun'kate muva Yahudi. Vano vakisile palikimo, alyajovile kuvanave, “Vanyalukolo, palikimo na kuuti nanihokile n'kole ku vaanhu ava nambe kuvomba luno nalulondua nava Nhaata viitu vanovalyatulongolile, vakanyumisie hwene n'kungua kuhuma ku Yerusalemu kufika hadi mumavoko gha va Rumi.
18 who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.

19 But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.
Looli ava Yahudi vala vakaati vajovile vunge kuluno vinoghelua avene, penilyaghimbile pihumia apiru kwa Kaisari, napano nalulyale lunyakuva ndiikio nileta amasitaka mu kipelela kyango.
20 For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.”

21 They said to him, “We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.
Pe vakam'bula, “Natughelile twupile ikalata kuhuma ku Yudea jino jikukujova uve, nambe nakwale unyalukolo juno akisile nakuhumia imola nambe kujova ilisio limonga ilivivi vwimila uve.
22 But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against.”
Looli tulonda kupulika kuhuma kulyuve ghusagha kiki vwimila ilipugha lya vaanhu ava, ulwakuva sivoneka kulyumue kuuti nijova fiivi pooni pano nilipuo.”
23 When they had appointed him a day, many people came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying about God’s Kingdom, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning until evening.
Vakaati vavikile ikighono vwimila umwene, avaanhu vinga kyongo valyamwisile pano ikalagha. Alyajovile ilisio lila kuvanave napikuvolelela vwimila ulwa vutua vwa Nguluve. Akaghelile kukuvavika vunofu vwimila u Yesu, kusooni ivili kuhumila mu ngaghilo sa Musa na kuhuma mu vavili, kutengulila pa lwakilavo kufika umpaka pakivwilile.
24 Some believed the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved.
Mun'kate mu vavuo vakavahongile kusimo sikajovilue, napano avange navakitike.
25 When they didn’t agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one message: “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,
Yevakunilue pikwiting'ana vao kwa vao vakavuka u Paulo ye ajvile imola iji jimo, “U Mhepo u Mwimike vunofu kukuka u Isaya um'biili ghwa va Nhaata viitu.
26 saying, ‘Go to this people and say, in hearing, you will hear, but will in no way understand. In seeing, you will see, but will in no way perceive.
Akaati, 'Luta kuvaanhu ava ujove, “Ku mbughulutu siinu mum'pulika, looli na mungakitang'anie; na kumaaso ghinu mulola looli namungakagule.
27 For this people’s heart has grown callous. Their ears are dull of hearing. Their eyes they have closed. Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, then I would heal them.’
Vwimila vwa numbula sa vaanhu ava siila vuvotevote, imbughulutu save sim'pulike ni mumuko, vadindile amaso gha vanave; neke kuuti valeke kukagula ku maso gha vanave, nakum'pulika ku mbughulutu sivsnave, napikun'tang'ania mu nhumbula sivanave, na pisyetuka kange, ngele nivavuvwisie.”
28 “Be it known therefore to you that the salvation of God is sent to the nations, and they will listen.”
Pa uluo, mu noghile kukagula kuuti uvuvangi vwa Nguluve vutwalilue ku vaanhu ava panji, kange vipulikisyagha.” (Gadilila: Ikidebe iki
29 When he had said these words, the Jews departed, having a great dispute among themselves.
“Un'siki ghuno alyajovile amasio agha, ava Yahudi vakabuka, kuno vighelana kyongo vavuo kwa vavuo, nakwesile muvutavike uvunofu uvwa kali).
30 Paul stayed two whole years in his own rented house and received all who were coming to him,
U Paulo akikalile mu nyumba ja mwene ijakupanga amaka ghaviili, kange alyavambilile vooni vanoon vano vakalutagha kwa mwene.
