Ebhikolwa bhya Jintumwa 21
1 Mbe mu mwanya ogwo chaliga chasigene nabho, chili mulugendo lwa Inyanja, nchigenda lugendo lumwi nichikinga mu musi gwa kosi, Mbe mwejo yendeko nichikinga mu musi gwa Rodo, nokusoka eyo nichikinga mu musi gwaPatara.
And after parting from them, we put out to sea and came straight to Cos, and the day after to Rhodes, and from there to Patara:
2 Chejile chikabhona imeli inu yambhukaga okuja Foinike, chalinyile nichigenda mulugendo.
And as there was a ship going to Phoenicia, we went in it.
3 Chejile chikakinga imbhele ya lisinga lwa Kipro, nichiisiga kulubhala lwe bhumosi, mbe nchigendelela nchikinga Siria, nichilasa inanga mu musi gwa Tiro, kunsoga eyo niyo imeli yendaga okushola ebhinu bhinu yaliga iikile.
And when we had come in view of Cyprus, going past it on our left, we went on to Syria, and came to land at Tyre: for there the goods which were in the ship had to be taken out.
4 Bhejile bhakabhalola abheigisibhwa, nichinyanja eyo naku musanju. Abheigisibhwa bhanu mbhamubhwila Paulo mu Mwoyo ati mwenene atataja Yerusalemu.
And meeting the disciples we were there for seven days: and they gave Paul orders through the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.
5 Chejile chakumisha jinaku jilya, eswe nchisokao nchija Jeswe. Bhona amwi, na abhagasi bhwebhwe na bhana bhwebhwe, bhachiyelegesishe munjila jeswe okukinga Anu chasokele Anja yo musi. Okumala nichifukama kunjejekela, nchisabhwa, nichilagana na bhuli munu.
And when these days came to an end, we went on our journey; and they all, with their wives and children, came with us on our way till we were out of the town: and after going on our knees in prayer by the sea,
6 Nchilinya mu meli, eyo nabho bhasubha ikewebhwe lindi.
We said our last words to one another, and got into the ship, and they went back to their houses.
7 Chejile chikamala olugendo lweswe okusoka Tiro, nchikinga Tolemai. Elya chakesishe abhasu no kwiyanja nabho kwo lunaku lumwi.
And journeying by ship from Tyre we came to Ptolemais; and there we had talk with the brothers and were with them for one day.
8 Mwejo yendeko chemukile nichigenda Kaisaria. Eswe nichingila ika ewa Filipo, omusimusi wo musango gwo bhwana, oyo aliga umwi wa bhaliya musanju, neswe nichinyanja amwi nage.
And on the day after, we went away and came to Caesarea, where we were guests in the house of Philip, the preacher, who was one of the seven.
9 Omunu unu aliga ali na abhayalakaji bhana bhayalajuma bhanu bhaliga nibhalikisha.
And he had four daughters, virgins, who were prophets.
10 Wejile enyanja eyo naku nyafuo, natelemuka okusoka bhuyaudi omulagi umwi oyo aliga nabhilikilwa Agabho.
And while we were waiting there for some days, a certain prophet, named Agabus, came down from Judaea.
11 Omwene ejile kwiswe no kugega lifwata lwa Paulo. kugwo abhoyele amagulu na amabhoko gae omwene no kwaika, “Mwoyo Mwelu kaika kutya,” “Abhayaudi bha Yerusalemu abhaja omubhoya omunu unu kajotunga lifwata linu nabho abhamutula mu mabhoko ga bhanu bha maanga.”
And he came to us, and took the band of Paul's clothing, and putting it round his feet and hands, said, The Holy Spirit says these words, So will the Jews do to the man who is the owner of this band, and they will give him up into the hands of the Gentiles.
12 Chejile chongwa emisango ejo, eswe na bhanu bhanu bhaliga bhekae ebhala lilya nchimukomelesha Paulo asige kuja Yerusalemu.
And hearing these things, we and those who were living in that place made request to him not to go to Jerusalem.
13 Nio Paulo nasubhya, “omukola chiya, omulila no kunyita omwoyo? Kulwo kubha nimalilie, atali okubhoywa-la, nawe no kufwila eyo Yerusalemu kulwa lisina lwa Latabugenyi.
Then Paul said, What are you doing, weeping and wounding my heart? for I am ready, not only to be a prisoner, but to be put to death at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
14 Kubhunu Paulo aliga atakwenda kukongibhwa, chasigile no kwaika,”mbe okwenda kwa Latabhugenyi kukoleke.
And as he might not be moved we did no more, saying, Let the purpose of God be done.
15 Okumala jinaku jinu, nichigega emifuko jeswe nichilinya okuja Yerusalemu.
And after these days we got ready and went up to Jerusalem.
16 Abheigisibhwa abhandi mbhasokao Kaisaria one mbhalubhana neswe. Nibhamuleta munu umwi oyo aliga natogwa Mnasoni, omunu wa Kipro, omwiigisibhwa wa kala, unu chenyanjile nage.
And some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, taking a certain Mnason of Cyprus, one of the early disciples, in whose house we were to be living.
17 Chejile chakinga, Yerusalemu abhasu bhachikumile kwo bhukondeleywe.
And when we came to Jerusalem, the brothers were pleased to see us.
18 Obhuchee bhendeko Paulo agendele amwi neswe ewa Yakobho, nabhakaluka bhona bhaliga bhalio.
And on the day after, Paul went with us to James, and all the rulers of the church were present.
19 Ejile amala obhukesha, nabhatondela chimwi chimwi ku ganu Nyamuanga akolaga mu bha maanga okulubhana ne milimu jae.
And when he had said how glad he was to see them, he gave them a detailed account of the things which God had done through his work among the Gentiles.
20 Omwanya ogwo Bhejile bongwa ago, bhamukusha Nyamuanga, no kumubhwila, “oulola, abhasu, bhalio bhiubhi billinga bhanu bhekilisishe mu bhayaudi. Abho bhona bhali ne bhiganilisho bhyo kugwata ebhilagilo.
And hearing it, they gave praise to God; and they said to him, You see, brother, what thousands there are among the Jews, who have the faith; and they all have a great respect for the law:
21 Bhabhwiliwe okulubhana nawe ati owiigisha abhayaudi bhanu bhekae agati ya maanga no kusigana na Musa, na ati oubhabhwila bhasige okutenda abhana bhebhwe na bhasige jintugwa ja kala.
And they have had news of you, how you have been teaching all the Jews among the Gentiles to give up the law of Moses, and not to give circumcision to their children, and not to keep the old rules.
22 Jichiile chikole atiki? Bhasige okwitimata-la abhajokungwa ati awe wejile.
What then is the position? They will certainly get news that you have come.
23 Kulwejo nukole echo eswe chinu echikubhwila woli: Chili na bhanu bhana bhanu bhateyeo echilailo.
Do this, then, which we say to you: We have four men who have taken an oath;
24 Bagege abhanu bhanu wiyeshe amwi nabho, na ubhaliile (igharama) yebhwe, koleleki bhamwege jinfwili ku mitwe jebhwe. Kwibhyo bhuli munu amenye ati emisango jinu bhabhwiliwe okulubhana nawe nijolulimi. Abhajo ukwiigila ati awe one oulubha ebhilagilo.
Go with these, and make yourself clean with them, and make the necessary payments for them, so that they may be free from their oath: and everyone will see that the statements made about you are not true, but that you put yourself under rule, and keep the law.
25 Mbhe nawe emisango ja bhanyamaanga bhanu bhabhee bhekilisha, chandikile no kusosha amalagililo ati kubheile bhekenge na bhinu bhisosibhwe echogo kwe bhisusano na manyinga okulubhana echinyigwa, na bhekenge no obhulomesi.”
But as to the Gentiles who have the faith, we sent a letter, giving our decision that they were to keep themselves from offerings made to false gods, and from blood, and from the flesh of animals put to death in ways against the law, and from the evil desires of the body.
26 Niwo, Paulo abhagegele abhalume, no lunaku lwa kabhili, neyesha omwene amwi nabho nengila mu yekalu, okulasha omwanya gwa jinaku jo kwesibhwa, ebhiyana bhisosibhwe ku bhuli umwi webhwe.
Then Paul took the men, and on the day after, making himself clean with them, he went into the Temple, giving out the statement that the days necessary for making them clean were complete, till the offering was made for every one of them.
27 Jinaku ejo musanju jejile jafogela okuwa, abhayaudi abhandi okusoka Asia bhamulola Paulo mu yekalu, ne likofyanya nilibhabhiilibhwa, nibhamusomelesha na amabhoko.
And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the Temple, got the people together and put their hands on him,
28 Bhaliga mbhayogana, “abhanu bha Israeli, mchisakile. unu Ni munu oyo keigisha abhanu bha bhuli mbhala emisango ejo jitasikene na bhanu, ebhilagilo, no lubhala lunu. One abhaletele abhayunani mu yekalu no kunyamula anu bhuli obhwelu”
Crying out, Men of Israel, come to our help: this is the man who is teaching all men everywhere against the people and the law and this place: and in addition, he has taken Greeks into the Temple, and made this holy place unclean.
29 okubha KU bhwambhilo bhamulolele Trofimo Muefeso ali amwi nage mu musi, nabho bhetogee ati Paulo amuletele mu yekalu.
For they had seen him before in the town with Trophimus of Ephesus, and had the idea that Paul had taken him with him into the Temple.
30 Omusi gwona nigukangabhala, na bhanu nibhabhilima amwi no kumugwata Paulo, nibhamuulusha Anja ya I yekalu, emilyango nijigulwa.
And all the town was moved, and the people came running together and put their hands on Paul, pulling him out of the Temple: and then the doors were shut.
31 Anu bhaliga bhalegeja okwenda okumwita, emisango jamukingie omukulu wa lijeshi lya Abhalisi ati Yerusalemu yona ijue inyombo.
And while they were attempting to put him to death, news came to the chief captain of the band that all Jerusalem was out of control.
32 Omwanya ogwo nabhagega abhasilikale no mkulu bhebhwe nabhilimila liinjo. Omwanya ogwo abhasilikale nibhasiga okumbhuma Paulo.
And straight away he took some armed men and went quickly down to them: and the Jews, seeing them, gave no more blows to Paul.
33 Okumala omkulu wa lijeshi bhamfogelee no kumugwata Paulo, nalagilila abhoywe eminyololo ebhili. nabhusha omwene ninga na akoleleki.
Then the chief captain came near and took him, and gave orders for him to be put in chains, questioning them as to who he was and what he had done.
34 Abhanu abhandi mwiijo bhaliga nibhamwaya ingulu abhandi kutya na bhandi kutyo. kwo kubha omukulu wa abhasilikale atatulile kubhabhwila Chona chona KU nsonga ya inyombho nalagilila Paulo mbhamute munda ya libhoelo.
And some said one thing and some another, among the people: and as he was not able to get a knowledge of the facts because of the noise, he gave orders for Paul to be taken into the army building.
35 Mbe Ejile akinga KU bhilinyilo, nagegwa na abhasilikale ku nsonga ya inyombho ya liijo.
And when he came on to the steps, he was lifted up by the armed men, because of the force of the people;
36 Okubha liijo lwa abhanu bhamulubhile mbhagendelela okuyobhegana, unu “mumusosheo.
For a great mass of people came after them, crying out, Away with him!
37 Paulo ejile asilwa mwibhoyelo agati, amubhilie omukulu wa abhasilikale, “enitula okukubhwila echinu?” Omukulu wa abhasilikale naika, “Mbe owaika echiyunani?”
And when Paul was about to be taken into the building, he said to the chief captain, May I say something to you? And he said, Have you a knowledge of Greek?
38 Angu awe utali mu misiri ulya oyo kubhambhilo atangasishe obhunyamuke no kugega abhakuti bha bhanu bhiumbhi bhina ibhala?”
Are you by chance the Egyptian who, before this, got the people worked up against the government and took four thousand men of the Assassins out into the waste land?
39 Paulo naika, “anye ndi Muyaudi, okusoka mu musi gwa Tarso ogwa Kilikia anye nili mwenengo wa mu musi gwa insonga. Enibhasabhwa, munyikilisishe naike na bhanu.
But Paul said, I am a Jew of Tarsus in Cilicia, which is not an unimportant town: I make a request to you to let me say a word to the people.
40 Omwanya ogwo omukulu wa abhasilikale Ejile amwikilisisha, Paulo nemelegulu ku bhilinyilo no kusosha echibhalikisho ku bhanu kwo kubhoko kwaye. Omwanya ogwo gwejile gwabha no bhujibhilie muno, naika nabho mululimi lwe chiebrania. Naika,
And when he let him do so, Paul, from the steps, made a sign with his hand to the people, and when they were all quiet, he said to them in the Hebrew language,
