Ebhikolwa bhya Jintumwa 11
1 Jintumwa na bhaili bhalya bhaliga bhali eyo yudea nibhongwa ati abhanu bha Maanga one bhagulamie omusango gwa Nyamuanga.
The apostles and brothers in Judea heard that foreigners had also accepted the word of God.
2 Petro ejile aja eyo Yerusalemu, echise cha bhanu bhanu bhaliga batendelwe nibhamba okumugaya, nibhaika,
When Peter arrived back in Jerusalem, those who believed circumcision was still essential argued with him.
3 “ugwatene na bhanu bhanu bhatatendelwe no kulya nabho!”
“You went into the homes of uncircumcised men, and ate with them,” they said.
4 Mbe nawe Petro namba okwelesha kutyo gabhonekene mu bhwima; naika,
Peter began to explain to them everything that had happened.
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.
“While I was in the town of Joppa I was praying, and in a trance I saw a vision. Something that looked like a large sheet was being let down by its four corners from heaven, and it came down 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.
When I looked inside I saw animals, wild beasts, reptiles, and birds.
7 Mbe ninungwa Obhulaka nibhwaika nanye, “imuka Petro ubhage na ulye!”
Then I heard a voice that told me, ‘Get up, Peter, kill and eat.’
8 Ninaika,'jitali kutyo, Latabugenyi, mukanwa yani chichaliga kwingilamo chinu chona chona chinu chitali chelu amwi chijabhi”
But I replied, ‘Absolutely not, Lord! Nothing impure or unclean has ever entered my mouth!’
9 Mbe nawe Obhulaka nibusubhya lindi okusoka mu lwile, chinu Nyamuanga alasishe kubha chelu, wasiga kuchibhilikila chijabhi,
The voice from heaven spoke again, and said, ‘Don't you call unclean what God has made clean!’
10 Gunu gwabhonekene kwiya ngendo esatu, na bhuli chinu nichigegwa lindi mulwile
This happened three times, and then it was all taken back into heaven.
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 were standing in front of the house where we were staying. They had been sent from Caesarea to see 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, and not to worry about who they were. These six brothers here also went with me, and we went into 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 explained to us how an angel had appeared to him in his house, who told him, ‘Send someone to Joppa, and fetch Simon, also called Peter,
14 Kajo kwaika emisango kwawe kwibhyo oujo okukisibhwa awe na inyumba yao.”
who will tell you what you need to hear so you can be saved—you and your whole household.’
15 Nejile namba okwaika nabho, Mwoyo Mwelu nabhajako lwa kutyo ejile kwiswe mu bhwambilo.
When I started speaking, the Holy Spirit fell on them, just as happened to us in the beginning.
16 Enichuka emisango ja Latabugenyi lwa kutyo aikile, Yohana abhatijishe kwa manji; Nawe omuja okubhatijibhwa kwo Mwoyo Mwelu.”
Then I remembered what the Lord said, ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the 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?
Since God gave them the same gift as he gave us when we trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ, what power did I have to oppose God?”
18 Bhejile bhongwa amasango ago, bhatasubhishe, nawe bhamusimile Nyamuanga no kwaika, Nyamuanga asosha okuta kwa bha maanga one.”
After they had heard this explanation, they didn't argue with him anymore, and praised God, saying, “Now God has granted the opportunity to repent and have eternal life to foreigners as well.”
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 happened when Stephen was killed, traveled all the way to Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch. They only spread the good news among the Jews.
20 Mbe nawe abhandi bhebhwe ni bhanu abhasoka Kipro na Krene, bhejile Antiokia no kwaika na Bhayunani no kumulasha Latabugenyi Yesu.
But when some of them who were from Cyprus and Cyrene arrived in Antioch, they shared the good news with the Greeks too, telling them about the Lord Jesus.
21 No kubhoko kwa Latabugenyi kwaliga kuli amwi nabho, na bhanu bhafu bhekilisishe no kumuindukila Latabugenyi.
The power of the Lord was with them and a large number trusted in the Lord and turned to him.
22 Emisango jebhwe nijikingila mu matwi ga Ikanisa inu yaliga ili Yerusalemu: Mbe nibhamtuma Barnaba agende Antiokia.
News about what had happened reached the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.
23 Ejile aja no kulola ebhiyanwa bhya Nyamuanga akondeywe; no kubhatamo omwoyo bhona ati bhasigale na Latabugenyi mu mioyo jebhwe.
When he arrived and saw for himself how God's grace was working, he was delighted. He encouraged all of them to completely dedicate themselves to God and to stay true.
24 Kulwo kubha aliga ali munu wa bhwana na ejusibhwe na Mwoyo Mwelu ne likilisha lya Bhanu bhafu nibheyongesha ku Latabugenyi.
Barnabas was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit, and put his whole trust in God. Many people were brought to the Lord.
25 Okumala Barnaba ajie Tarso okumulola Sauli.
Then Barnabas went on to 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 when he found him, he took Saul back with him to Antioch. Over the course of the next year they worked together with the church, teaching the message to crowds of people. It was in Antioch that the believers were first called “Christians.”
27 Mu naku jinu abhalagi nibhatelemuka okusoka mu Yerusalemu nibhakinga Antiokia
It was during this time that some prophets went 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 called Agabus stood up and gave a prophetic warning by the Spirit that there would be a terrible famine that would affect the known world. (This came true in the reign of Emperor Claudius.)
29 Kulwejo, abheigisibhwa, bhuli munu lwa kutyo aliga nabhona, nibhalamula okusila ebhinu byo kubhasakila abhanu bhanu bhaliga mu Bhuyaudi.
The believers decided to send funds to help the brothers that lived in Judea, with everyone giving according to what they had.
30 Bhakolele kutya, bhatumile Barnaba na Sauli mu mabhoko gebhwe okubhasilila Jimpilya.
So they did this and sent the money with Barnabas and Saul to the church leaders there.
