Ebhikolwa bhya Jintumwa 9
1 Mbe nawe saul, nagendelela- la okwaika no kubhakanga na jinfu ja bheigisibhwa bha Latabugenyi, agendele ku mugabhisi mukulu.
But Saul, still breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, came to the high priest
2 no ku musabhwa Inyalubha yo kugenda ku mekofyanyisho eyo Damesiki, koleleki ati akamubhona omunu unu kabha ali ku njila ilya, abhe mulume amwi mugasi, abhabhoye no kubhaleta Yerusalemu.
and asked of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues, so that if he found any who were of the way, both men and women, he might bring [them] bound to Jerusalem.
3 Anu aliga achalibhata, nijibhonekana ati ejile elila ayei na Damesiki, nechula bhwangu obhwelu nibhumusekanila one one obhwelu okusoka mulwile,'
But as he was journeying, it came to pass that he drew near to Damascus; and suddenly there shone round about him a light out of heaven,
4 omwene nagwa ansi nogwa obhulaka nibhumubhwila,”Sauli, Sauli, kulwaki ounyasha anye?”
and falling on the earth he heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, why dost thou persecute me?
5 Sauli nasubhya, ka awe nawega Latabhugenyi? Latabhugenyi naika ati,”anye nanye Yesu unu ounyasha;
And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And he [said], I am Jesus, whom thou persecutest.
6 mbe nawe imuka, wingile mu musi, oujokubhwilwa ganu geile okukola
But rise up and enter into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.
7 Abhanu bhalya bhanu bhalibhataga amwi na sauli nibhajibhila jibhi, nibhogwa obhulaka, bhatalolele munu.
But the men who were travelling with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but beholding no one.
8 Mbe Sauli nemuka ansi ejile abhandula ameso gae, atabhwene chinu, nibhamugwata okubhoko nibhamuleta okukinga Damesiki.
And Saul rose up from the earth, and his eyes being opened he saw no one. But leading [him] by the hand they brought him into Damascus.
9 ku nsiku esatu atakulola, nolwo kulya, amwi kunywa.
And he was three days without seeing, and neither ate nor drank.
10 Mbe aliga alio mwiigisibhwa Damesiki lisina lyae Anania, Latabugenyi aikile nage mu bhilolo, “Anania.” Naika ati, “lola, nilio anu Latabugenyi.
And there was a certain disciple in Damascus by name Ananias. And the Lord said to him in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, [here am] I, Lord.
11 “Latabugenyi namubhwila, “Imuka ugende mu luguyo lunu olutogwa olugololoke, mu nyumbha ya Yuda mbe ubhusilishe alimo omunu asokele Tarso kabhilikilwa Sauli; kulwo kubha na oli kasabhwa;
And the Lord [said] to him, Rise up and go into the street which is called Straight, and seek in the house of Judas one by name Saul, [he is] of Tarsus: for, behold, he is praying,
12 Aliga amulolele mu bhilolo omunu unu lisina lyae Anania nengila no kumutelako amabhoko ingulu yae koleleki alole.
and has seen [in a vision] a man by name Ananias coming in and putting his hand on him, so that he should see.
13 Mbe nawe Anania nasubhya ati, “Latabugenyi, nonguywe misango jo munu unu mu bhanu bhafu, jinu jitakutula kumenyekana ati ni kutiki lwa kutyo abhakoleye amabhibhi abhelu bhanu bhali eyo Yerusalemu;
And Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard from many concerning this man how much evil he has done to thy saints at Jerusalem;
14 Anu aliga ali na malagililo okusoka ku mugabhisi mukulu okumugwata bhuli umwi unu kalibhilikila lisina lyao.
and here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call upon thy name.
15 Mbe nawe Latabugenyi namubhwila ati, “Genda kulwo kubha mwenene ni chimogwa chisolwa kwanye, koleleki aligege lisina lyani ku maanga na mu
And the Lord said to him, Go, for this [man] is an elect vessel to me, to bear my name before both nations and kings and [the] sons of Israel:
16 bhakama na mu bhana bha Israel. Kulwo kubha enija okubhelesha mafu ganu gamwiile okunyasibhwa kulwa lisina lyani”.
for I will shew to him how much he must suffer for my name.
17 Anania nagenda, nengila mu nyumbha ilya; namutelako amabhoko naika, wasu Sauli, Latabugenyi Yesu, oyo akubhonekee ku njila anu waliga nu uja, antumile koleleki ulole lindi na wijusibhwe na Mwoyo mwelu.
And Ananias went and entered into the house; and laying his hands upon him he said, Saul, brother, the Lord has sent me, Jesus that appeared to thee in the way in which thou camest, that thou mightest see, and be filled with [the] Holy Spirit.
18 Ao nao nibhilagala ebhinu nibhisoka mu meso gae kuti bhikambha, nalola, nemelegulu, nabhatijibhwa, nalya ebhilyo no kubhona amanaga.
And straightway there fell from his eyes as it were scales, and he saw, and rising up was baptised;
19 Nenyanja amwi na beigisibwa eyo Damesiki nsiku nyafu.
and, having received food, got strength. And he was with the disciples who [were] in Damascus certain days.
20 Mu mwanya ogwo ogwo namukumusha Yesu mu mekofyanyisho, naika ati mwenene ni mwana wa Nyamuanga.
And straightway in the synagogues he preached Jesus that he is the Son of God.
21 Bhona bhanu bhonguywe bhatang'ang'ae no kwaika,”atali omunu unu aliga nanyasha bhone bhanu bhabhilikie lisina linu eyo Yerusalemu? Anu one ejile kwa insonga yo kubhabhoya no kubhasila kubhagabhisi.”
And all who heard were astonished and said, Is not this he who destroyed in Jerusalem those who called on this name, and here was come for this purpose, that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?
22 Mbe nawe Sauli asakiywe mu kusimula no kubhakola Abhayaudi bhanu bhaliga bhekae Damesiki na nibhagandasibhwa no kubhakomelesha ati unu niwe masiya (kristo).
But Saul increased the more in power, and confounded the Jews who dwelt in Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.
23 Jejile jatulao nsiku nyafu, Abhayaudi nibhalwajisha amwi koleleki bhamwit.
Now when many days were fulfilled, the Jews consulted together to kill him.
24 Mbe nawe obhwilige-lige bhwebhwe nibhumenyekana na Sauli. nibhamutegela ku mulyango mu mwisi na mungeta koleleki bhamwite.
But their plot became known to Saul. And they watched also the gates both day and night, that they might kill him;
25 Nawe abheigisibhwa bhae nibhamugega mungeta nibhamwisisha ku ndugu, kenu Ali mwikapo nibhamwisha kukinga Ansi.
but the disciples took him by night and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
26 Sauli ejile akinga Yerusalemu, alegejishe okubha amwi na bheigisibhwa nawe bhaliga nibhamubhaya, bhaliga bhatakwikilisha ati mwenene one ni mwiigisibhwa.
And having arrived at Jerusalem he essayed to join himself to the disciples, and all were afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
27 Mbe nawe Barnaba namugega namsila ku ntumwa no kubhelesha lwa kutyo Sauli amubhwene Latabugenyi mu njila na lwa kutyo Latabugenyi aikile nage, lwa kutyo Sauli asimue kwo bhubhasi kubhwa lisina lya Yesu eyo Damesiki.
But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles, and related to them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had spoken boldly in the name of Jesus.
28 Abhugangene nabho anu bhaliga nibhengila no kuuluka okusoka mu Yerusalemu. Naika kwo bhubhasi kulwa lisina lya Latabungenyi Yesu,
And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem,
29 nabhambashanya na Bhayaudi bhe chiyunani nawe kwiya kafu nibhalegeja okumwita.
and speaking boldly in the name of the Lord. And he spoke and discussed with the Hellenists; but they sought to kill him.
30 Abhaili bhejile bhamenya omusango ogwo, nibhamugega okukinga kaisaria, no kumusila aje Tarso.
And the brethren knowing it, brought him down to Caesarea and sent him away to Tarsus.
31 Mbe likanisa lyona mu bhuyaudi, Galilaya na Samaria nilibha no mulembhe no kumbhakwa, no kulibhatila mu bhubha bhwa Latabugenyi no kusilishanya kwa Mwoyo Mwelu; mbe likanisa nilikula na bhanu nibheyongesha.
The assemblies then throughout the whole of Judaea and Galilee and Samaria had peace, being edified and walking in the fear of the Lord, and were increased through the comfort of the Holy Spirit.
32 Anu Petro aliga neinda-inda kumabhala gone age misi Jone namala nabhekila abhekilisha bhona bhanu bhaliga bhekae mu misi ja Lida.
Now it came to pass that Peter, passing through all [quarters], descended also to the saints who inhabited Lydda.
33 Eyo namulola omunu umwi lisina lyae Ainea, unu aliga amalile ku bhulili Miaka munana; kulwo kubha omubhili gwae gwaliga gufuye.
And he found there a certain man, Aeneas by name, who had been lying for eight years upon a couch, who was paralysed.
34 Petro namubhwila, “Ainea, Yesu Kristo akwiulishe; imuka wiyanjulile obhulili bhwao,” Ao nao nemka.
And Peter said to him, Aeneas, Jesus, the Christ, heals thee: rise up, and make thy couch for thyself. And straightway he rose up.
35 Abhanu bhona bhanu bhaliga bhekae Lida na Sharon bhejile bhamulola omunu oyo, nibhamuindukila Latabugenyi.
And all who inhabited Lydda and the Saron saw him, who turned to the Lord.
36 Aliga alio mwiigisibhwa Yafa aliga natogwa Tabitha, linu lyagajuywe ati “Dorcas” omugasi Unu aliga ejue emilimu ne bhikolwa bhye kisi ne chigogo chinu akolele mu bhataka.
And in Joppa there was a certain female disciple, by name Tabitha, which being interpreted means Dorcas. She was full of good works and alms-deeds which she did.
37 Jabhonekene mu nsiku ejo alwae nafwa; bhejile bhamwosha, nibhamulinya mu chumbha cha ingulu no kumumamya.
And it came to pass in those days that she grew sick and died; and, having washed her, they put her in [the] upper room.
38 kulwo kubha Lida yaliga ayei na Yafa, na bheigisibhwa bhejile bhongwa ati Petro alio, nibhabhatuma bhanu bhabhili ku mwene, nibhamulembeleja, “nu uje kwiswe wasiga kukola.
But Lydda being near to Joppa, the disciples having heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him, beseeching him, Thou must not delay coming to us.
39 Petro nemuka nagenda amwi nabho. Ejile akinga, nibhamuleta mu chumba cha ingulu. Mbe abhatumbagasi bhona nibhemelegulu ayei nage nibhalila, nibhamwelesha likoti na jingubho jinu Dorcas abhasonee mu mwanya ogwo aliga ali amwi nabho.
And Peter rising up went with them, whom, when arrived, they brought up into the upper chamber; and all the widows stood by him weeping and shewing him the body-coats and garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
40 Petro nabhaulusha bhona anja nibhasoka mu chumbha, nafukama nasabhwa okumala naguindukila omubhili, naika ati, “Tabitha, imuka”. Nabhandula ameso gae ejile amulola Petro Nenyanja ansi.
But Peter, putting them all out, and kneeling down, prayed. And, turning to the body, he said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes, and, seeing Peter, sat up.
41 Okumala Petro namuyana okubhoko kwae namwinamusha, mbe ejile abhabhilikila abhekilisha na abhatumbhagasi, namubhayana bhenene ali muanga.
And having given her [his] hand, he raised her up, and having called the saints and the widows, presented her living.
42 omusango ogwo nigumenyekana mu Yafa yone, na bhanu bhafu nibhamwikilisha Latabugenyi.
And it became known throughout the whole of Joppa, and many believed on the Lord.
43 Njibhonekana Petro nenyanja Yafa mwanya mulela amwi no munu unu aliga nabhilikilwa Simoni, unu aliga nayasha jinjai.
And it came to pass that he remained many days in Joppa with a certain Simon, a tanner.
