Ebhikolwa bhya Jintumwa 11
1 Jintumwa na bhaili bhalya bhaliga bhali eyo yudea nibhongwa ati abhanu bha Maanga one bhagulamie omusango gwa Nyamuanga.
Now the Apostles and the brothers throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.
2 Petro ejile aja eyo Yerusalemu, echise cha bhanu bhanu bhaliga batendelwe nibhamba okumugaya, nibhaika,
When Peter went up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision party started contending with him,
3 “ugwatene na bhanu bhanu bhatatendelwe no kulya nabho!”
saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!”
4 Mbe nawe Petro namba okwelesha kutyo gabhonekene mu bhwima; naika,
So Peter began by explaining it to them in order, saying:
5 “Naliga ninsabhwa mu musi gwa Yafa, Mbe nindola ebhilolo bhye chinu chinu chaliga nichika lwo mwenda munene nigwika okusoka mu lwile ku nsonde yagwo jone enna. echinu echo nichika Kwanye.
“I was in the town of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision: a certain object like a great sheet coming down out of the sky, being lowered by its four corners; and it came to me.
6 Ninchilolelela no kuchiganilisha. Nindola jityanyi eja magulu gana jinu jikae kuchalo, na jityanyi ja Ibhala na bhinu ebhikwesa na jinyonyi ja mulutumbha.
Upon peering into it I observed and distinguished the quadrupeds of the earth—both the wild animals and the reptiles—and the birds of the sky.
7 Mbe ninungwa Obhulaka nibhwaika nanye, “imuka Petro ubhage na ulye!”
Then I heard a voice saying to me, ‘Get up, Peter, slaughter and eat!’
8 Ninaika,'jitali kutyo, Latabugenyi, mukanwa yani chichaliga kwingilamo chinu chona chona chinu chitali chelu amwi chijabhi”
So I said: ‘No way, Lord! Never has anything ‘common’ or unclean entered my mouth!’
9 Mbe nawe Obhulaka nibusubhya lindi okusoka mu lwile, chinu Nyamuanga alasishe kubha chelu, wasiga kuchibhilikila chijabhi,
But the voice answered me, a second time, from heaven, ‘Things that God has made clean you must not call ‘common’.’
10 Gunu gwabhonekene kwiya ngendo esatu, na bhuli chinu nichigegwa lindi mulwile
Well this was done three times, and it was all pulled back up into the sky.
11 Lola, omwanya ogwo bhanu bhasatu bhaliga bhemeleguyu imbhele ya inyumba ilya munu chaliga chili; bhatumwa okusoka Kaisaria okuja Kwanye.
At that very moment three men stopped in front of the house where I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me.
12 Mwoyo nambwila okugenda nabho, na nasiga okutasikana nabho Bhanu bhalume mukaga nibhagenda amwi nanye na nichigenda ku nyumba yo munu umwi
The Spirit told me to go with them, doubting nothing. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man's house.
13 Achibhwilie kutyo amulolele malaika emeleguyu mu nyumba yae naika,” niuntume nigende Yafa nimulete Simoni unu lisina lyae elindi ni Petro.
He then related to us how he had seen the angel standing in his house and saying to him, ‘Send to Joppa and summon Simon, who is called Peter,
14 Kajo kwaika emisango kwawe kwibhyo oujo okukisibhwa awe na inyumba yao.”
who will speak words to you by which you and all your household will be saved.’
15 Nejile namba okwaika nabho, Mwoyo Mwelu nabhajako lwa kutyo ejile kwiswe mu bhwambilo.
Well as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, just as on us at the beginning.
16 Enichuka emisango ja Latabugenyi lwa kutyo aikile, Yohana abhatijishe kwa manji; Nawe omuja okubhatijibhwa kwo Mwoyo Mwelu.”
I remembered the word of the Lord, how He said, ‘John indeed baptized with water, but you will be baptized with Holy Spirit.’
17 Alabha one Nyamuanga asosishe ebhiyanwa lwa kutyo achiyanile eswe anu chekilisishe mu Latabugenyi Yesu Masiya, anye nanye ga unu enitula okumuganya Nyamuanga?
So if God gave them the same gift as He gave us when we believed upon the Lord Jesus, who was I to be able to withstand God?”
18 Bhejile bhongwa amasango ago, bhatasubhishe, nawe bhamusimile Nyamuanga no kwaika, Nyamuanga asosha okuta kwa bha maanga one.”
Upon hearing these things they acquiesced and started glorifying God, saying, “So then, God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance into life!”
19 Mbe abhekilisha bhanu Jinyako jambie mu lufu lwa Stephano bhanyalambukile okusoka mu Yerusalemu -abhekilisha bhanu bhajie kula kukinga Foinike, Kipro na Antiokia. Bhabhabhwilie emisango ja Yesu enyele-ela mu Bhayaudi na ati atalio oundi wona wona.
Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that came about in connection with Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except Jews only.
20 Mbe nawe abhandi bhebhwe ni bhanu abhasoka Kipro na Krene, bhejile Antiokia no kwaika na Bhayunani no kumulasha Latabugenyi Yesu.
But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who upon entering Antioch started speaking to the Greek-speakers, preaching the good news of the Lord Jesus.
21 No kubhoko kwa Latabugenyi kwaliga kuli amwi nabho, na bhanu bhafu bhekilisishe no kumuindukila Latabugenyi.
And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.
22 Emisango jebhwe nijikingila mu matwi ga Ikanisa inu yaliga ili Yerusalemu: Mbe nibhamtuma Barnaba agende Antiokia.
Well the report concerning them reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch.
23 Ejile aja no kulola ebhiyanwa bhya Nyamuanga akondeywe; no kubhatamo omwoyo bhona ati bhasigale na Latabugenyi mu mioyo jebhwe.
Upon arriving and seeing the grace of God, he was glad, and he kept encouraging them all to remain true to the Lord with purpose of heart
24 Kulwo kubha aliga ali munu wa bhwana na ejusibhwe na Mwoyo Mwelu ne likilisha lya Bhanu bhafu nibheyongesha ku Latabugenyi.
(for he was a good man, full of Holy Spirit and of faith). And a considerable crowd was added to the Lord.
25 Okumala Barnaba ajie Tarso okumulola Sauli.
Then Barnabas departed for Tarsus to look for Saul,
26 Ejile amubhona, namuleta Antiokia. ejile amala mwaka gumwi mkobhe nibhekofyanya amwi na likanisa no kwi- igisha bhanu bhafu. Abheigisibhwa kwo lugendo lwo kwamba niwo nibhabhilikilwa abhakilisto eyo Antiokia.
and upon finding him he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for a whole year they met with the congregation and taught a great many people. The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
27 Mu naku jinu abhalagi nibhatelemuka okusoka mu Yerusalemu nibhakinga Antiokia
Now in these days, prophets came from Jerusalem to Antioch.
28 Oumwi webhwe katogwa Agabho ndyo lisina lyae, nemelegulu nelesibhwa na Mwoyo ati oguja okubhao omweko mwafu muchalo Chona. Jinu jabhonekene mu mwanya gwa jisiku ja Klaudio.
One of them, named Agabus, stood up and indicated by the Spirit that a great famine was about to come upon the whole world (this indeed happened while Claudius was Caesar).
29 Kulwejo, abheigisibhwa, bhuli munu lwa kutyo aliga nabhona, nibhalamula okusila ebhinu byo kubhasakila abhanu bhanu bhaliga mu Bhuyaudi.
Then the disciples, to the extent that any had plenty, each of them determined to send relief to the brothers who lived in Judea;
30 Bhakolele kutya, bhatumile Barnaba na Sauli mu mabhoko gebhwe okubhasilila Jimpilya.
which they also did, sending it to the elders by Barnabas and Saul.
