Ebhikolwa bhya Jintumwa 19
1 Nibha ati Apollo aliga Ali Korinto, Paulo nalbha ingulu no kukinga mumusi gwa Efeso, nasanga abeigisibwa bhafuo eyo.
Shipindi Apolu pakaweriti Korintu, Paulu kagenditi mwanja seemu za bala, kaziti Efesu kweni kawoniti wafundwa wamu.
2 Paulo nabhabwila “Angu, mwamulamie Mwoyo Mwelu mwejile mukekilisha?” Mbhamubwila, uli”. Chitatulile kumungwa ati alio Mwoyo mwelu.”
Kakosiiti, “hashi, pampatiti kuwera wajimira myangiti Rohu. Mnanagala?” Nawomberi wamwankula, “Ndala! Hatweni pikanira handa kwana Rohu Mnanagala.”
3 Paulo aikile,” oli emwe mwabhatijibhe kutiki?” Mbhaika, “mubhubhatijo obhwa Yohana
Nayomberi katakula, “Vinu mpatiti ubatizu wa ntambu gaa?” Wamwankula, “ubatizu wa Yohani.”
4 Mbe Paulo nasubhya,”Yohana abatijishe kwo obhubhatijo bho kuta. Nabhabhwila abhanu bhalya ati kubheile okumwikilisha uliya unu endaga okuja inyuma yae, unu Ali Yesu.”
Nayomberi Paulu katakula, “ubatizu wa Yohani uweriti wa kulanguziya handa wantu waleka vidoda. Yohani kawagambiriti wantu wamjimiri ulii yomberi yakaweriti kakwiza pa yomberi, yaani Yesu.”
5 Abhanu Bhejile bhwongwa emisango jinu, nibhabhatijibhwa mwisina lya Latabugenyi Yesu.
Pa kupikinira aga, wabatiziti kwa litawu lya Mtuwa Yesu.
6 Anu paulo ejile abhatelako amabhoko gae, Mwoyo Mwelu nabhwejila igulu yebhwe no kwambha okwaika kwa jindimi no kubhalikisha.
Su, Paulu kawatulira mawoku, na Rohu Mnanagala kawasulukira. Wanja kutakula likabila luhenga na kubwera ujumbi wa Mlungu.
7 Obhujumula bhwebhwe bhaliga bhalume bheile ekumi na bhabhili.
Woseri waweriti wantu lilongu na wawili.
8 Paulo agendele mulikofyanyisho naika kwo bhubhasi kwo mwanya gwa mesi gasatu. Aliga nabhushanya nabho no kubhamenyesha emisango jinu jilengelee obhukama bha Nyamuanga.
Kwa shipindi sha myezi mitatu Paulu kaweriti kankugenda munumba za Mlungu, kawera na matakuliranu ga kukwegiziya nentu kuusu ufalumi wa Mlungu.
9 Mbe nawe Abhayaudi abhandi bhaliga bhanyantongwa, bhabha okwaika amabhibhi ago kulubhana na injila ya Kristo imbhele ya liijo. Mbe Paulo asigene nabho no kwaukana nabhekilisha kula nabho. Mwenene nambha okwaika bhuli lunaku mu mwigalagalilo elya Tirano.
Kumbiti wamonga waweriti wakakatala, walema kujimira, wanja kuyowera vidoda kuusu njira ayi ya Mtuwa mulijojiniku lya wantu. Panu Paulu kaulekiti uganja nawomberi, kawatola pambwega wafundwa wakuwi walii, kaweriti kankuyowera nawomberi kila lishaka panumba ya masomu ga Tiranu.
10 Linu lyagendelee kwa miaka ebhili, kulwejo bhona bhaliga bhekae mu Asia bhonguywe omusango gwa Latabugenyi, bhona abhayaudi na bhayunani.
Kendereyiti kutenda hangu kwa shipindi sha vinja viwili ata wanalushi woseri wa Asiya, Wayawudi na wantu wa maisi gamonga, waweza kupikinira shisoweru sha Mtuwa.
11 Nyamuanga aliga nakola bhikolwa bhikulu mu mabhoko ga Paulo,
Mlungu katenditi mauzauza ga kulikangasha kwa mawoku ga Paulu.
12 nolwo abhalwae, beulisibhe na bhemiyaga mibhibhi (amasambwa) nigasosibhwako, omwanya gunu bhagegele ebhitambhala ne myenda jinu jaliga jisokole ku mubhili gwa Paulo.
Wantu waweriti wankutola shitambala na nguwu zimonga zya lihengu zyeni Paulu kaweriti kankuvala, wazijegiti kwa walweli, nawomberi waponiziwa malweri gawu na walii wawaweriti na washamshera wadoda walawa.
13 Mbe nawe bhaliga bhalio abhayaudi bhanu bhenamyaga amasabhwa. bhagendele okulabha olubhala olwo, bhaika lisina lya Yesu kulwa ingulu ye milimu jebhe abhene. Mbhabhabhwila bhanu bhaliga bhana amasabhwa mabhibhi; Mbhaika,” Enibhabhwila musokeko kwa lisina lya Yesu unu Paulo kamulasha.”
Wayawudi wamu yawawusiya wamshera wadoda. Wagenditi mwanja aku na aku wankujera kulitumiya litawu lya Mtuwa Yesu mweni Paulu kankumbwera.
14 Bhanu bhakolele ganu bhaliga bhalio bhana musanju bho mugabhisi mukulu we chiyaudi, Skewa.
Wana saba wa Sikewa na Mtambika Mkulu wa Shiyawudi, woseri watenditi hangu.
15 Amasambhwa amabhibhi, Ngabhasubhya, “Yesu enimumenya, na Paulo enimumenya; Nawe emwe mulibhaga?”
Kumbiti shamshera kadoda kawankula, “Nummana Yesu, nummana viraa Paulu, kumbiti mwenga mwa gaa?”
16 Lisabhwa libhibhi lilya linu lyaliga lili munda yo munu nilibhachumila abhenamya bhalya nilibhaiga kwa mananga no kubhabhuma. Niwo nibhabhilima okusoka mu nyumbha ilya bhali tuyu no kuutasibhwa.
Shakapanu muntu ulii yakalendemeriti kawakopokera woseri kwa likakala, kawakanka likakala. Na wana awa wa Skewa watuga kulawa mnumba mlii pawawera shivula na kuwera na vironda.
17 Omusango gunu ngumenyekana ku bhona, ku bhayaudi na abhayunani, bhanu bhaliga bhekae eyo Efeso. Mbhabha no bhubha bhafu, na lisina lya Latabugenyi niliyongesha echibhalo.
Kila muntu Efesu aku, Myawudi na muntu yakawera ndiri Myawudi, kapikaniriti kuusu shitwatira ashi. Woseri waweriti na lyoga, walikwisa litawu lya Mtuwa Yesu.
18 Nawe abhafu bha bekilisha Bhejile nibhegambha no kwielesha ebhikolwa ebhibhibhi bhinu bhakolele.
Wawumini watangala walawiriti wajimira paweru vitwatira avi vyawaweriti watenda.
19 Abhafu bhanu bhaliga nibhakola obhufumu bhakumanya ebhitabho bhyebhwe, mbhabhyocha imbele ya bhuli munu. Omwanya gunu bhabhalile ku bhinu ebhyo, nibhikiga bhiumbi makumi gatanu ga jimpirya.
Wamonga waweriti wankutenda vitwatira vya uhawi shipindi shipititi, wajojiniriti vintola vyawu, wavilunguziya paulongolu pa woseri. Wakisiyiti galama ya vintola avi, wawona ifikira vipandi vya shuma malongu mhanu elufu.
20 Kulwejo omusango gwa Latabugenyi niguswila kwo bhafu na managa.
Toziya ayi, shisoweru sha Mtuwa shendereya kweneya na shiwera na likakala nentu.
21 Paulo nakumisha obhusakisi bhae eyo Efeso, Mwoyo namutangasha okuja Yerusalemu okulabha Makedonia na Akaya; naika, “Ejile akabhayo eyo kunyiileno okuilola Rumi ona.”
Pa vitwatira avi, Paulu kaamuiti kugenda Yerusalemu kwa kupitila Makedoniya na Akaya katakuliti, “Pa kusoka aku, infiruwa kuiwona Rumi viraa.”
22 Paulo nabhatuma Makedonia abheigisibhwa bhae bhabhili, Timotheo na Erasto, abho bhaliga nibhamusakila. Nawe omwene enyele nasigala Asia kwo mwanya.
Avi, kawatumiti wawili wa ntumintumi wakuwi, Timotewu na Erastu walonguleri genda Makedoniya, yomberi kalikaliti kwa katepu aku Asiya.
23 Omwanya ogwo nibhonekana ijogele Nene eyo Efeso okulubhana na abha injila ilya.
Shipindi ashi ndo pailawiriti ndewu nkulu aku Efesu toziya ya njira ayi ya Mtuwa.
24 Masika umwi lisina lyae Demetrio, unu akonjele ebhisusano bhya jimpirya bya Diana mungu, aletele ebhona enene kubhabhuya.
Kuweriti na munyawa shuma yumu wamshema Demetiriu, yomberi kaweriti na lihengu lya kunyawa vinyagu vya numba ya mlungu gwa shidala yawamshema Aritemi. Lihengu ali liwayupiti wanyawa wakuwi mota ngulu.
25 Kwibhyo nabhakumanya abhabhuya bhwe milimu ejo no kwaika, “Bhakulu, mumenyele ati mu mabhona ganu eswe echingisha mpilya nyafu.
Demetiriu kawajojiniriti pamwera watenda lihengu awa pamwera na wamonga wawaweriti na lihengu handa ali, kawagambira, “Wanalushi, muvimana handa shipatu shangu shilawirana na biyashala ayi.
26 Omulola no kungwa ati atalyanwila Efeso, jiswilile Asia yona, Paulo unu kabhakogya no kubhaindula bhanu bhafu. kaikati bhitaliyo bhimungu bhinu ebhikolwa na mabhoko.
Vinu, muweza kupikinira na kuliwonera maweni vitwatira avi Paulu kankuvitenda, panu Efesu hera ndiri, ira viraa koseri Muasiya. Yomberi kawashawishi na kuwagalambula wantu wajumiri handa wamilungu walii yawanyawitwi na wantu milungu ndiri ata shididini.
27 Atali ati ilio itambala amabhona geswe gatakuja kwendibhwa lindi. Nawe ona mu yekalu ya mungu mugasi unu Ali mkulu Diana unu katula okugegwa atali na nsonga. Akatulile nolwo okubhusha obhukulu bhae, omwene oyo Asia ne Chalo echimlamya.”
Su iwezekana kuwera biyashara yetu iweri na litawu lidoda. Hangu hera ndiri, kumbiti shitwatira ashi shiweza kuitenda numba ya mlungu Aritemi iweri shintu ndiri sha mana. Shakapanu nzyumi zakuwi ayu Asiya na pasipanu poseri ntambu yawamguwira, Hayiperi.”
28 bhejile bongwa ganu mbejusibhwa ne bhinyiga bhabhuma injogele, mbhaika, “Diana wa Bhaefeso Ni mkulu.”
Pawapikiniriti aga, waweriti na maya, wayanja kubotanga umatu, “Mkulu ndo Aritemi gwa Efesu!”
29 Omusi gwona nguyobhegana, abhanu bhabhilima amwi mwigalagalilo lyo bwenywa. Mbhabhagwata abhalibhasi bhejabho na Paulo, Gayo na Aristariko, bhanu bhasokele Makedonia.
Kaya yoseri imema fuju. Wawavamiya Gayu na Alisitariku, wenikaya wa Makedoniya, weni waweriti wanamwanja wayaguwi Paulu, watuga nawomberi mpaka kumdamu gwa madingu.
30 Paulo aliga nenda okwingila mwiijo lya bhanu, nawe abheigisibhwa bhamuganyishe.
Paulu mweni kafiriti kushigendera shipinga sha wantu awa, kumbiti waumini walii wamleweleriti.
31 Abhakulu abhandi one abha limimbho lya Asia bhanu bhaliga bhali bhasani bhae mbhamusilila emisango ja managa ago kumusabhwa ataja kwingila mwigalagalilo lyo obhwenywa.
Wakulu wa sirikali wamonga wa aku kumkoa wa Asiya, wawaweriti maganja wakuwi, wamjegiriti Paulu ujumbi wankumluwa nakalitula muatali kwa kugenda kweni kumdamu gwa madingu.
32 Abhanu abhandi bhaliga nibhaika echinu chinu na abhandi omusango gulya, kunsonga liijo lya bhanu lyaliga lyasalile. KU bhafu bhwebhwe bhatatulile kumenya kulwaki bhejie amwi.
Shipindi shilii, wantu wamu waweriti pawabota hangu na wamonga vilii. Wantu wavuwa wavimaniti ndiri iwera ashi wawera aku.
33 Abhayaudi nibhamuleta Iskanda anja ya liijo lyabhanu no kumuta imbhele ya bhanu. Iskanda nasosha echibhalikisho kwo kubhoko kwo kusosha amelesho ku bhanu.
Toziya Wayawudi wamtenda Alekizanda kalawiri kulongolu, wamu wa wantu mushipinga shilii walisheriti kuwera ndo mweni. Su, Alekizanda kawapungiriti wantu kwa liwoku pakafira kujiteteya paulongolu pa shipinga sha wantu walii.
34 Mbe nawe bhejile bhamenya ati mwenene Ni Muyaudi, bhona nibhayogana kwo bhulaka bhumwi kuti mwanya gwa saa ebhili, Diana Ni mukulu wa Bhaefeso.”
Kumbiti pawavimaniti weri yomberi ndo Myawudi, woseri kwa liziwu limu washowangana, “Mkulu ndo Aritemi gwa Efesu!” Wendereya kushowangana showangana hangu kwa shipindi sha masaa mawili.
35 Omwandiki wo musi ejile alijibhisha liijo, naika, “Emwe abhalume abha Efeso, niga unu atakumenya ati Omusi gunu ogwa Efeso gubhikile liyekalu elya Diana mukulu ne chisusano chinu chaguye okusoka mu lwile?
Upeleru kalani gwa lushi kafawuliti kuwanyamaziya, kawagambira, “Wanalushi wa Efesu, kila muntu kavimana handa kaya ayi ya Efesu ndo mlolera gwa numba ya mlungu gwa shidala Aritemi na mlolera gwa shinyagu shilii shashiguwiti kulawa kumpindi.
36 Okulola ati emisango jinu jitakutulikana, kuchiile okucholela mtaja kukola Chona chona kwo bhwangu.
Kwahera yakaweza kulema shitwatira ashi. Hangu su, munyamali, namtenda shoseri pota hepera.
37 Kulwo kubha mubhabhilikie abhanu bhanu Anu mwilamulilo kenu bhatali bhefi bha iyekalu nolwo bhatali bho kumufuma mungu weswe omgasi.
Muwashema wantu awa panu tembera wayigilanga ndiri numba ya mlungu ama kumwigilanga mlungu gwetu gwa shidala.
38 Kulwejo, Alabha Demetrio na bhabhuya bhanu bhali amwi nage bhano musango gunu gutasikene na munu wona wona, lilamulilo lili abhwelu na abhatwale bhalio. Mbe mbhasilwe imbhele bhajo temelwa echina.
Handa, Demetiriu na watenda lihengu wayaguwi wawera na masitaka gawu kuusu wantu awa, pana mahakama na wakulu wa mikoni, waweza kusitakiana aku.
39 Mbe nawe Alabha awe ouiga Chona chona okulubhana ne misngo jindi ejija okufulubhendelwa ne chinyanjo che chimali.
Handa pamuwera na visoweru vyamonga, vyaviwagaziya, muvijegi pashiyotera motu yapafiruwa.
40 Nchimali chili mu ntambhala yo kwinganilisibhwa kubhibhi okulubhana na injogele yo lunaku lunu. Italio nsonga yona yona yo bhunyamusi bhunu, na chitakutula kubha no bhutulo bho kugelesha. 41
Toziya tuweza kusitakiwa kwa kujega ndewu kulawirana na vituku vya lelu. Ndewu ayi kwahera toziya ya nakaka na metusindi kulaviya toziya za nyanyi za ndewu ayi.”
41 Ejile amala okwaika ganu, nanyalambhula elikofyanya.
Pakatakuliti aga, kakumaliriti kuliwona.
