Ebhikolwa bhya Jintumwa 28
1 Jejile chakingibhwa kisi, niwo nichimenya ati lisinga elibhilikilwa Malta.
And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita.
2 Abhanu abhenengo abhende aliya atali ati bhachilamie kwo bhwila bhunu bhwiile, nawe bhakongesishe omulilo no kuchifogesha bhona, kunsonga ya ing'ubha na imbheyo inu yaliga nigendelela.
And the natives people showed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.
3 Mbe nawe Paulo anu aliga nakumanya liganda lya jing'wi no kulita mu mulilo, injoka noto eya isumu nisoka mung'wi jilya kwa insonga ya libhila-bhila lilya, na nimwisingilila kukubhoko kwae.
And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.
4 Abhanu abhenengo bha alia bhejile bhalola intyanyi yenenele okusoka ku kubhoko kwae, abhanu nibhaika abhene kwa bhene, “Omunu unu Ni chimali Ni mwiti Nolwo kutyo( akila) mu nyanja, nawe echimali chitamusiga kubha muanga.”
And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffers not to live.
5 Mbe nawe mwenene nailasa mu mulilo intyanyi eyo Nolwo omwene atabhwene mauta gonna gona.
And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.
6 Abhene bhaliga nibhalindilila ati kafwimba kwo muswija amwi bhwangu kajokugwa no kufwa. Mbe nawe bhejile bhamulola kwo mwanya mulela na mbhalola ati gutalio musango gunu gutali gwe chimile ku mwene, nibhaindula ameganilisho gebhwe no kwaika ati aliga ali mungu.
Nevertheless they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.
7 Mbe ayei na libhala lilya bhwaliga bhulio obhusi bhunu gwaliga guli mugabho gwo omukulu wa lisinga, omunu oyo aliga natogwa Pablio. Achifogesishe no kuchifogesha kwa naku esatu.
In the same quarters were possessions of the chief man of the island, whose name was Publius; who received us, and lodged us three days courteously.
8 Jabhonekene ati esemwene Pablio agwatilwe omuswija no bhulwae bho kuchugula. Nawe Paulo ejile amujako, nasabhwa, no mutelako amabhoko gae, no kumwiulisha.
And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a dysentery: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on him, and healed him.
9 Wejile jabhonekana jinu, abhanu abhandi kwi singa lilya bhanu bhaliga nibhasibhwa nibhagenda na nibheulisibhwa.
So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed:
10 Abhanu nibhachiyana echibhalo kwe chibhalo chafu. Anu chaliga nichenda okugenda mulugendo, bhachiyanile bhinu chaliga chikenele.
Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they laded us with such things as were necessary.
11 Wejile gatulao mesi gasatu, chagendele mu lugendo lwa mu meli eya Iskanda inu yaliga yabhumilwe na imbeyo ao mwisiga, inu abhatangasha bhae bhaliga bhali Bhaili bhabhili abha malongo.
And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.
12 Wejile chakinga mu musi ogwa Sirakusa, chenyanjile alia naku esatu.
And landing at Syracuse, we tarried there three days.
13 Okusokelelao nichigenda nichikinga mu musi ogwa Regio. Nichimalao lunaku lumwi omuyaga gwo mulimbe nigubhonekana ao nao, Wejile jatulao naku ebhili nichikinga mu musi ogwa Putoli.
And from thence we fetched a compass, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli:
14 Eyo nichibhasanga abhaili abhandi na nibhachifogesha okwinyanja nabho kwa naku musanju. Munjila inu nichija Rumi.
Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome.
15 Okusoka eyo abhaili bhalya, bhejile bhongwa emisango jeswe ati, Bhejile okuchilamila eyo mwigulilo elya Apias na jinyumba esatu jinu ejilisha. Paulo ejile abhalola abhaili bhalya namusima Nyamuanga namba okubha no bhubhasi.
And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage.
16 Chejile chengila mu Roma, Paulo ekilisibhe okwikala enyele-la amwi no musilikale unu amulindaga.
And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself with a soldier that kept him.
17 Mbe Jejile jatulao naku esatu Paulo abhabhilikie abhalume bhalya bhanu bhaliga bhatangasha agati ya abhayaudi. Bhejile bhejila amwi, aikile kubhene ati, “Bhaili, amwi nejo ati nichali kukola chikayo chona chona ku bhanu bhanu amwi ninkola obhutasikane no bwitondi bhwa bhalata bheswe bhanu bhachitangatie, nasosibhweo kuti mubhwoya unu asokele Yerusalemu kukinga mu mabhoko ga bharumi.
And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
18 Bhejile bhamala okumbusilisha, nibhakena okunsiga kutyoela, kunsonga yaliga italio nsonga kwanye anye inu yaliga inyiile indamu yo lufu.
Who, when they had examined me, would have let me go, because there was no cause of death in me.
19 Mbe nawe abhayaudi bhalya bhejile bhaika kenu bhatasikene ku bhwendi bhwebhwe, kwanyiile okugendelela na ikesi kukinga ku Kaisari, Nolwo kutyo jaliga jili ati enileta amasitaka ingulu ya liyanga lyani.
But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation of.
20 Kunsonga yo kugendelela na ikesi yani, kwibhyo, nasabhile nibhalole no kwaika nabho. Niyo insonga ya chilya chinu Israel Ali no bhubhasi nacho, nibhoyelwe kwo kubhoywa kunu.
For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see you, and to speak with you: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.
21 Okumala Nibhamubhwila ati, “Chichaliga kulamila inyalubha okusoka Yudea kwo kulubhana nawe, nolwo atalio muili unu ejile no kusosha emisango amwi kwaika musango gwona gwona guli mibhibhi okulubhana nawe.
And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judaea concerning you, neither any of the brethren that came showed or spoke any harm of you.
22 Mbe nawe echenda okungwa okusoka kwawe owiganilishaki okulubhana na liijo linu elya bhanu bhanu, Kulwo kubha eimenyekana kwiswe ati elyaika bhutasikane na bhuli ebhala.”
But we desire to hear of you what you think: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
23 Anu bhaliga bhauye olunaku ingulu ya, bhanu bhafu kukilao nibhamulubha kwi bhala elyo aliga ekae. Aikile omusango gulya ku bhene no kubhambalila okulubhana no bhukama bhwa Nyamuanga. Alegejishe okubhakongya-kongya okulubhana naYesu, ku njila jona ebhili okusoka mu bhilagilo bha Musa no okusoka ku bhalagi, okwambila katondo kukinga kegolo.
And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.
24 Abhandi bhebhwe nibhakongibhwa okulubhana ne misango jilya jinu jaikilwe, mu mwanya abhandi bhatamwikilisishe.
And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.
25 Wejile bhasingwa okungwana abhene kwa bhene, bhasokeleo Wejile Paulo agwaika omusango gunu gumwi, “Mwoyo Mwelu aikile kisi kwo kulabha ku Isaya omulagi ku bhalata bhemwe.
And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, (rhema) Well spoke the Holy Spirit (pneuma) by Isaiah the prophet unto our fathers,
26 Aikile, 'Nugende ku bhanu bhanu waike, “Kwa matwi gemwe omungwa, Mbe nawe mutakusombokelwao chinu; Na kwa meso gemwe omulola Mbe nawe mutakumenya.
Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing all of you shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing all of you shall see, and not perceive:
27 Kulwo kubha emyoyo ja abhanu bhanu jalengae, amatwi gebhwe agongwa kwa jinyako, gafundikiywe ameso gebhwe; koleleki ati bhasige Okulola kwa meso gebhwe, no kungwa kwa matwi gebhwe, no kusombokelwa kwe mioyo jebhwe, no kuinduka lindi, nanye nakabheulisishe.'”
For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
28 Kulwejo, kubheile okumenya ati omwelulo gunu ogwa Nyamuanga gusililwe ku bhanu bha maanga, na abhajokungwa.” (komelesha: olugobho lunu
Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.
29 Mu mwanya gunu ejile aika emisango jinu, abhayaudi bhasokeleo, bhali na mabhushanyo manene agati yebhwe, “Gutalimo mu nyandiko je kisi eja kala).
And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
30 Paulo enyanjile mu nyumba yae inu aliga alimo kwa mwanya gwa myaka jone ebhili, na abhafogesishe bhona bhanu bhajaga ewae.
And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him,
31 Aliga nasimula obhukama bha Nyamuanga no kwiigisha emisango ja Latabhugenyi Yesu Kristo kwo bhubhasi bhona. Atalio unu amuganyishe.
Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.
