Ebhikolwa bhya Jintumwa 13
1 Woli mwikanisa llya Antiokia, bhaliga bhalio abhalagi abhandi amwi na bheigisha. Bhaliga Barnaba, Simeoni (unu aliga natogwa Nigeri). Lukio awa Krene, Manaeni (omuili unu atali wa manyiga ga Herode omutangasha wa lijimbho) na Sauli.
And there were prophets and teachers in the church at Antioch; Barnabas, and Symeon called Niger, and Lucius the Cyrenean, and Manahem, the foster-brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
2 Anu bhaliga nibhamulamya Latabugenyi ne chisibho, Mwoyo Mwelu aikile, “munyaulile kumbhali Barnaba na Sauli, bhakole emilimu jinu nabhabhilikie.”
And they ministering to the Lord, and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, Now separate unto me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.
3 Likanisa lyejile lyamala echisibho, okusabhwa no kubhatelako amabhoko abhanu bhanu, mbe nibhabhasiga bhagende.
Then they having fasted and prayed, and laid hands on them, sent them away.
4 Kulwejo Barnaba na Sauli bhamwolobhee Mwoyo Mwelu nibhatelemuka okuja Seleukia; Okusokeyo mbhalabha KU nyanja okuja mwisinga elya Kipro.
Then they indeed, having been sent away by the Holy Ghost, came down to Seleucia; and thence sailed away to Cyprus.
5 Anu bhaliga mu musi gwa Salami, bhalasishe omusango gwa Nyamuanga mu mekofyanyisho ga Abhayaudi. one nokubha bhaliga amwi na Yohana Marko kuti msakisi webhwe.
And being in Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they also had John as their helper.
6 Bhejile bhagenda mwisiga lyona bhakiga Pafo, bhasangile munu mulebhe mulosi, Omuyaudi omulagi wo lubheyi, unu lisina lyae aliga ali Bar Yesu.
And having gone through the whole island to Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a Jewish false prophet, to whom was the name of Bar-Jesus:
7 Omulosi unu aliga ali amwi no Mtwale Sergio Paulus, unu aliga ali munu wo bhenge. Omunu unu abhakokele Barnaba na Sauli, kulwo kubha aganenda okungwa omusango gwa Nyamuanga.
who was with Sergius Paulus, the proconsul, an intelligent man. He, having called Barnabas and Saul, sought to hear the word of God;
8 Mbe nawe Elima “Omulosi ulya” (Nkokutyo lisina lyae lyagajuywe) abhaganyishe; alegejishe okumuindula omutwale ulya asoke mulikilisha.
but Elymas the magician (for thus his name is interpreted) opposed them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.
9 Mbe nawe Sauli unu aliga nabhilikilwa Paulo, aliga ejusibhwe na Mwoyo Mwelu, Mbe namulolelela neke-neke.
And Saul, (who is also Paul), being filled with the Holy Ghost, fixing his eyes on him,
10 Mbe naika “awe omwana wa nyakusheta unu wijusibhe no bhwijigi-jigi bha bhuli nyami no bhulenga. Awe uli musoko wa bhuli chinu che chimali. Utakusiga okujiindula jinjila ja Latabugenyi, angu outula?
said, O thou full of all guile and rascality, thou son of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease perverting the right ways of God?
11 Mbe Lola woli, okubhoko kwa Latabugenyi kuli ingulu yao, na ouja okuofula. Utakulilola lisubha ko mwanya” Ao nao oluwe ne chisute nibhimugwila Elimas; Nabha okwiinda-inda aliya-la no kusabhwa abhanu bhamutangashe kwo kumugwata okubhoko.
And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a time. And immediately there fell on him a mist and darkness; and going about he was seeking people to lead him by the hand.
12 Omutwale ejile alola ganu gabhonekene, ekilisishe, kulwo kubha atang'ang'asibhwe kwo kulubhana na meigisho ga Latabugenyi.
Then the deputy, seeing that which took place, believed; being delighted with the teaching of the Lord.
13 Mbe woli Paulo na bhasani bhae nibhagenda mu lugendo lwa mumaji nibhasoka Pafo nibhakinga Perge mu Pamfilia. nawe Yohana abhasigile nasubha Yerusalemu.
And those around Paul having sailed from Paphos, came into Perge of Pamphylia: and John having departed from them returned to Jerusalem.
14 Paulo no musani wae nibhagenda mulugendo lwo kusoka Perge nibhakinga Antiokia eya Pisidia. Eyo bhagendele mulikofyanyisho ku lusiku olwa isabhato nibhakinga nibhenyanja.
And they having come from Perge, arrived into Picidian Antioch, and having come into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, they sat down.
15 Bhejile bhamala okusoma ebhilagilo na bhalagi, abhatangasha bhe likofyanyisho abhasilie omusango nibhaika, “Bhaili, mkabha ne misango jo kubhatamo omwoyo abhanu anu, mwaike.”
And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the chief rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Men, brethren, if there is any word of consolation to the people in you, speak.
16 Kulwejo Paulo emeleguyu no kubhaungisha okubhoko; aikile, “Emwe abhalume bha Israel bhanu omumwolobhela Nyamuanga, Mbe mutegeleshe.
And Paul, rising up, and beckoning with his hand said; Israelitish men, and those fearing God, hear.
17 Nyamuanga wa bhanu bhanu abha Israeli bhanu asolele bha lata weswe no kubhakola bhanu bhafu anu bhaliga bhekae mu Chalo cha Misri, na kulwo kubhoko kwae nabhatangasha.
The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people during their sojourn in the land of Egypt, and with a strong arm led them out of it;
18 Mu miaka makumi gana nabhegumilisha mwibhala.
and when he supported them about the time of forty years in the wilderness,
19 Wejile amala okugasingalisha amanga musanju mu Chalo cha Kanani, abhayanile abhanu bheswe echalo chebhwe okulya omwandu.
and having destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them the inheritance of the land about four hundred and fifty years.
20 Ganu gone gabhonekene kwiya kafu mu myaka magana gana na makumi gatanu. Okumala ebhinu bhinu bhyona, Nyamuanga nabhayana abhalamusi kukinga ku Samweli Omulagi.
And after these things he gave them judges, till Samuel the prophet.
21 Okumala ganu, abhanu mbhasabhwa Omukama, kwibhyo Nyamuanga nabhayana Sauli omwana wa Kisi, omunu wo luganda lwa Benjamini, kubha mukama kwa myaka makumi gana
And then they asked for a king: and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years;
22 Eishe Nyamuanga namusoshako ku bhukama nabhatelako Daudi abhe mukama webhwe. Okulubhana ne bhya Daudi Nyamuanga aikile ati,”namubhene Daudi omwana wa Yese omunu unu kakondelesha omwoyo gwani; unu kajokola bhuli chinu chinu enenda.”
and having deposed him, he raised up to them David for a king; to whom witnessing he also said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man according to my own heart, who will do all my wishes.
23 Okusoka mu luganda Lwo munu unu Nyamuanga abhaletee abhaisraeli omwelusi, Yesu, lwa kutyo alagile okukola.
From whose seed according to the promise he led forth Jesus, the Savior, to Israel:
24 Gunu gwambhile okubhonekana, anu Yesu aliga achali kuja, okwamba Yohana nalasha obhubhatijo bhwo kuta ku bhanu bhona abhaisraeli.
and John having preached the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel, before the face of his coming.
25 Mbe omwene Yohana Anu aliga namalisha emilimu jae, aikile, “Omunyiganilisha ati anye nanye ga? Anye ntali ulya. Mbe mutegeleshe, unu kaja inyuma yani, niteile okugesha ebhilato bhya mu bhigele bhae.
And when John fulfilled his course, he said, What do you consider me to be? I am not he: but, behold, there comes one after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to loose.
26 Bhana bhasu, abhana bho lwibhulo lwa Abraham, na bhalya mwimwe bhanu omumulamya Nyamuanga, ni ingulu yemwe ati omusango gunu gwo mwelulo gwatumilwe.
Men, brethren, sons of the race of Abraham, and those among you fearing God, unto us the word of this salvation was sent.
27 Mu bhalya bhanu bhekae Yerusalemu, na abhatungi bhebhwe, bhatamumenyele mu chimali, nolwo bhatagumenyele omusango gwa bhalagi bhanu abhasomwa bhuli sabhato; Kulwejo bhakumisishe omusango gwa bhalagi ogwo kumulamula Yesu kufwa.
For those dwelling in Jerusalem, and the rulers, having rejected him, condemning him, have
28 Nolwo kutyo bhatabhwene nsonga yona yona ye kisi yo kufwa kwa Yesu, nawe bhamusabhile Pilato amwite.
fulfilled the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath; and having found no cause of death, asked Pilate that he should be executed;
29 Bhejile bhamala bhyona bhinu bhyandikilwe okulubhana no mwene bhamwisishe okusoka kwiti no kumumamya munfwa.
and when they perfected all the things which had been written concerning him, taking him down from the cross, placed him in a sepulchre.
30 Mbe nawe Nyamuanga namusulula okusoka mu bhafuye.
And God raised him from the dead;
31 Abhonekene KU nsiku nyafu kubhalya bhanu bhalibhataga nage okusoka Galilaya no kuja Yerusalemu. Abhanu bhanu woli ni bhabhambhansi bha bhanu.
who appeared to those coming up with him to Jerusalem from Galilee many days, who are now his witnesses to the people.
32 Kwibyo echibhaletela emisango jo bhwana okulubhana ne milago jinu bhasaja bheswe bhayanilwe.
And we preach unto you the promise, which was made to the fathers,
33 Nyamuanga ateyeo emilago jinu kwiswe, abhana bhebhwe kwijo amusuluye Yesu no kumkola kubha muanga lindi. Gunu gwone gwandikilwe mu jabhuli eya kabhili: “Awe uli mwana wani, lelo nabha esomwana”
that God has fulfilled this unto our children, raising up Jesus, as in the second Psalm it has been written, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
34 One ejibhonekana mu chimali na ati amusuluye okusoka mubhafue koleleki omubhili gwae gwasiga kunyamuka, kaika kutya: “Enijokuyana obhulengelesi na amabhando ge chimali mu Daudi.”
And because he raised him up from the dead, no longer about to return to corruption, He has thus said, I will give unto you the faithful mercies of David.
35 Inu niyo insonga kaika one mu jabhuli eindi, “utakwikilisha omwelu wao abhonekane no bhubhosi.”
Therefore He also says in another place, Thou wilt not suffer thy Holy One to see corruption.
36 Wejile Daudi amala okukolela elyenda lya Nyamuanga mu lwibhulo lwae, amamile, amamibhwe amwi na bhesemwene, na abhubhwene obhunyamuke,
For David, indeed having served his own generation according to the will of God, went to sleep, and did see corruption:
37 Mbe nawe unu asuluywe na Nyamuanga atabhwene bhunyamke.
but he, whom God raised up, did not see corruption.
38 Kwibyo na jimenyekane kwimwe, Bhaili, okulabha ku munu unu okusasilwa kwe bhikayo kwasimuywe.
Then let it be known unto you, men brethren, that through this one remission of sins is preached:
39 Ku mwene bhuli unu kekilisha kabhalilwa echimali na masango gona age bhilagilo bhya Musa bhitakabhayanile chimali.
and in him every one believing is justified from all things from which ye were not able to be justified by the law of Moses.
40 Kwibyo mubhega bhekengi ati chinu bhaikilie abhalagi chitabhonekana kwimwe:
Then beware, lest the word which has been spoken by the prophets may come upon you;
41 Mbe Lola, emwe bhanu omugaya, mulugule no kusimagila; lwa kutyo enikola emilimu mu nsiku jemwe, omulimu gunu mtakutula kugwikilisha, nolwo omunu akabhelesha.”
Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and vanish away: because I work a work in your days, a work which you may not believe, though one may proclaim it to you.
42 Mumwanya ogwo Paulo na Barnaba Bhejile bhasokao, abhanu nibhabhasabhwa bhaike emisango jo lusiku lwa Isabhato Inu eija.
And they going out, they continued to entreat them that these words should be spoken to them on the next Sabbath.
43 Mu mwanya gwe likofyanyisho gwejile gwawa, Abhayaudi bhafu nabheikanyibhwa mu chimali bhabhalubhile Paulo na Barnaba, bhanu bhaikile nabho na nibhakomelesha bhagendelele mu chigongo cha Nyamuanga.
And the synagogue having been adjourned, many of the Jews and pious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking with them, continued to persuade them to abide in the grace of God.
44 Isabhato Inu yalubhie, kuti musi gwona gwekofanyishe okutegelesha omusango gwa Nyamuanga.
And on the following Sabbath almost all the city came together to hear the word of the Lord.
45 Abhayaudi Bhejile bhalola elikofyanya, mbhejula lifuwa no kwaika amasango ago gagailwe ku bhinu bhinu bhyaikwaga na Paulo no kumufuma.
And the Jews seeing the multitudes, were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the word spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
46 Mbe nawe Paulo na Barnaba bhaikile kwo bhubhasi no kwaika, “kwaliga kuli kwa bhusi-bhusi ati omusango gwa Nyamuanga gwaikililwe kwimwe okwamba. kwo kubha mwangukuliye kula okusoka kwimwe no kwilola ati mwaliga muteile kubhona obhuwanga bha kajanende, mbe mulole echijobhaindukila abhanyamaanga. (aiōnios g166)
And Paul and Barnabas speaking boldly, said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you: since you have rejected it, and judge yourselves not worthy of eternal life, behold we now turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
47 Lwa kutyo Latabugenyi Achilagilie, naika ati, “nibhateyeo emwe kuti bhelu ku bhanu bha maanga, koleleki mulete omwelulo ku mabhala gone age chalo.”
For thus the Lord has commanded us, I have placed thee for a light of the Gentiles, that thou shalt be for salvation unto the extremity of the earth.
48 Amaanga gejile gogwa gunu, bhukondeleywe no kugukusha omusango gwa Latabugenyi. Bhafu bhanu bhasolelwe kwo bhuanga bha kajanende bhekilisishe. (aiōnios g166)
And the Gentiles hearing, rejoiced, and glorified the word of the Lord: and so many as had been ordained unto eternal life believed: (aiōnios g166)
49 Omusango gwa Latabugenyi niguswila chalo chona.
and the word of the Lord was carried throughout all the country.
50 Mbe nawe Abhayaudi bhabhelembelejishe bhanu bhesosishe na Abagasi abha insonga, amwi na abhatangasha bho musi. Ganu gasoelesishe Jinyako KU Paulo na Barnaba okwiya mbhabhesa anja yo lubibi lwo musi.
And the Jews stirred up the noble godly women, and the first men of the city, and they raised a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their borders.
51 Mbe nawe Paulo na Barnaba nibhakukumula oluteli mu magulu gebhwe. Okumala nibhagenda mu musi gwa Ikonia.
And having cast off the dust from their feet against them, they came into Iconium.
52 Abheigisibhwa nibhejusibhwa no kukondelwa amwi na Mwoyo Mwelu.
And the disciples were filled with joy, and the Holy Ghost.
