1 Ni jwapali mundu ku Kaisalia liina lyakwe che Konolio, chilongola jwa mpingo wa ŵangondo mia moja waukuŵilanjikwa “Mpingo wa Italia.”
A man now certain (was *k*) in Caesarea named Cornelius, [was] a centurion of [the] Cohort which is called Italian,
2 Jweleju pamo ni ŵaali mu nyuumba jao wose ŵajogopaga Akunnungu, nombejo ŵakamwisye ŵakulaga ni kupopela moŵa gose.
devout and fearing God with all the household of him, doing (also *k*) alms many to the people and praying to God (through *N(K)O*) (all [times]; *N(k)O*)
3 Mpela saa tisa ja muusi ŵammweni pangasisika katumetume jwa kwinani jwa Akunnungu mu yakwiwona achaichililaga ni kwasalila, “Che Konolio!”
He saw in a vision clearly as if about hour [the] ninth [hour] of the day an angel of God having come to him and having said to him; Cornelius!
4 Che Konolio ŵankolondolele katumetume jo ali ni lipamba, ni kummusya, “Kwana chichi Ambuje?” Katumetume jo ŵanjanjile che Konolio, “Akunnungu apochele mapopelo ni sadaka syenu kwa ŵakulaga, ni sooni ngasanliŵalila kose.
And having looked intently on him and afraid having become he said; What is it, Lord? He said then to him; The prayers of You and the alms of you have ascended as a memorial (before *N(k)O*) God.
5 Sambano, mwalajisye ŵandu ku Yopa akammilanje mundu liina lyakwe che Simoni, pane akummilanga che Petulo.
And now do send men to Joppa and do yourself summon Simon (someone *n(o)*) who (is called Peter; *NK(o)*)
6 Jwelejo akutama ku che Simoni jwakukolosya mapende, nyuumba jakwe jili mungulugulu mbwani.”
He lodges with a certain Simon a tanner, whose is [the] house by [the] sea (this [one] will tell you what you it behooves to do. *K*)
7 Ajula katumetume jwa kwinani jwaŵechete maloŵe go paŵatyosile, che Konolio ŵaaŵilasile ŵakutumichila ŵakwe ŵaŵili pamo ni jumo jwa ŵangondo ŵakwe juŵantumichilaga, juŵaliji jwakwajogopa Akunnungu,
When then had departed the angel who is speaking (*k*) (to him, *N(K)O*) having called two of the servants (of him *k*) and a soldier devout of those attending to him,
8 Ŵaasalile yose iyakopochele, ni kwalajisya ku Yopa.
and having related all things to them he sent them to Joppa.
9 Malaŵi jakwe lyuŵa lili pa ntwe, ŵandu ŵatatu wo ali chiŵela mu ulendo, achiŵandichilaga ku Yopa che Petulo ŵakwesile penani pa nyuumba kukupopela.
On the now next day when are journeying (these *NK(o)*) and to the city are approaching, went up Peter on the housetop to pray about hour [the] sixth.
10 Ni jakwete sala, ŵasachile chakulya. Paŵankulumichisyaga chakulya, ŵaiweni yakwiwona.
He became then hungry and was desiring to eat. when were preparing however ([some] of them happened *N(k)O*) upon him a trance,
11 Ni ŵakuweni kwinani kweugule ni chindu chisau shuka jejikulungwa jili jeŵambe mmalombo gakwe gancheche chili nkutuluswa.
and he beholds heaven opened and descending (onto him *K*) a vessel certain as a sheet great by four corners (bound and *KO*) being let down upon the earth;
12 Mwelemo mwaliji mwana inyama inayose yana makongolo gancheche ni inyama yaikukwaŵa ni ijuni ya kwiunde.
in which were all the quadrupeds (and the beasts *K*) and (the *k*) creeping things of the earth and (*k*) birds of heaven.
13 Nipele, ŵalipilikene liloŵe lichasalilaga, “Che Petulo njimuche, nsikite nlye.”
And came a voice to him: Having risen up Peter, do kill and do eat.
14 Nambo che Petulo ŵajanjile, “Ngwamba, Ambuje, uneji nganilye chindu chachili chose chekanye kuligwa atamuno chakusakala.”
And Peter said; In no way, Lord; for never I ate anything common (or *N(k)O*) unclean.
15 Liloŵe lila lyapikaniche sooni lichasalilaga, “Indu yaiswejesye Akunnungu nkaiŵilanga yakusakala!”
And a voice [came] again for [the] second time to him: What God has cleansed, you yourself not do call common.
16 Chelechi chakwasalila che Petulo nsikite nlye ŵasalilwe katatu, ni papopo shuka jila janyakulikwe kwinani.
This now took place for three times and (immediately *N(K)O*) was taken up the vessel into heaven.
17 Che Petulo paŵaliji nkusimonga nkati malumbo ga yakwiwona yaiweni yo, ŵandu ŵaŵalajiswe ni che Konolio ŵala, ali amasile kuuchilichisya, ŵaiche pa nyuumba ji che Simoni jwakukolosya mapende, ni kwima pannango,
While then in himself was perplexed Peter what maybe would be the vision that he had seen, (and *k*) behold the men who sent (from *N(k)O*) Cornelius having inquired for the house (*no*) of Simon, stood at the gate;
18 ni ŵapoposile ni kuusya, “Ana mwelemu kwana jwannendo jwakuŵilanjikwa che Simoni jwakuŵilanjikwa che Petulo?”
And having called out (they were asking *NK(o)*) if Simon who is being called Peter here is lodged.
19 Ni che Petulo paŵaliji nkuganisya yankati yakwiwona ila. Papopo Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵasalile, “Che Simoni, Kwana ŵandu ŵatatu pelepa akunsosa.
And Peter (thinking *N(k)O*) over the vision said to him the Spirit: Behold men (three *NK(O)*) (are seeking *N(k)O*) you;
20 Ntuluche chitema pe ni sooni nkaliusyausya kulongana pamo nawo pakuŵa une ni junaatumile.”
But having risen do go down and do proceed with them nothing doubting, (since *N(k)O*) I myself have sent them.
21 Nipele, che Petulo ŵatulwiche ni kwasalila ŵandu wo, “Uneji ndili jwelejo junkunsosa. Ana nkusosa chichi pelepa?”
Having gone down then Peter to the men (who sent from Cornelius to him *K*) he said; Behold I myself am whom you seek; what [is] the cause for which you are here?
22 Ŵanyawo ŵanjanjile, “Atutumile che Konolio jwankulu jwa ŵangondo, mundu jwakuŵalanjikwa umboni wambone, jwakwajogopa Akunnungu ni kuchimbichikwa ni Ŵayahudi wose. Ŵasalilwe ni katumetume jwa kwinani kuti ambilanje alakwe kumangwakwe kuti apilikanile chinkusaka kuŵecheta.”
And they said; Cornelius a centurion, a man righteous and fearing God being well testified to then by all the nation of the Jews, was divinely instructed by an angel holy to send for you to the house of him and to hear declaration from you.
23 Che Petulo ŵaaŵilasile ajinjilanje nkati, ŵapele pagona. Malaŵi jakwe, che Petulo ŵatandite ulendo pamo ni ŵanyawo, ni ŵandu ŵane ŵakwakulupilila Che Yesu ŵa ku Yopa ŵalongene nawo.
Having called in therefore them he lodged [them]. On the now next day (having risen up *NO*) (*k*) (Peter *K*) he went forth with them, and some of the brothers those from (*k*) Joppa went with him.
24 Lyuŵa lyaaŵili lyakwe ŵaiche ku Kaisalia, kweleko che Konolio ŵaalaliche achalongo achinjakwe ni achambusangagwe, ni ŵaliji nkwalindilila ŵanyawo.
(and *k*) On the (now *no*) next day (he entered *N(k)O*) into Caesarea; and Cornelius was expecting them having called together the relatives of him and close friends.
25 Nipele che Petulo paŵajinjilaga nkati, che Konolio ŵakopweche paasa kukwachingamila, ŵatindiŵele paujo pa che Petulo ni kwakotamila.
as then was entering Peter, having met with him Cornelius having fallen at the feet worshiped [him].
26 Nambo che Petulo ŵanjimiche ni kunsalila, “Njime pakuŵa none jwakwe ndili mundu mpela alakwe.”
But Peter lifted up him saying; do rise up; also I myself myself a man am.
27 Che Petulo ŵapundile kukunguluka ni che Konolio ali nkwinjila nkati ni ŵasimene ŵandu ŵajinji asongangene.
And talking with him he entered and he finds having gathered together many,
28 Che Petulo ŵaasalile, “Ŵanyamwe mwachinsyene nkumanyilila kuti malajisyo ga dini jetu ja Chiyahudi gakutukanya kukamulangana atamuno kwajimajimila ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi. Nambo Akunnungu aamanyisye uneji kuti ninanganichisye mundu jwalijose kuti ali jwangaswejeswa atamuno jwakusakala.
He was saying then to them; You yourselves know how unlawful it is for a man Jewish to unite himself or to come near to [someone] foreign; And to me And to me God has shown nothing common or unclean to call man,
29 Kwa ligongo lyo pamumilasile nganiingana kwika. Nipele, ngummusya kwaligongo chi mumilasile?”
Therefore also without objection I came having been summoned. I inquire therefore, for what reason did you summon me?
30 Che Konolio ŵajanjile, “Gapite moŵa gatatu mpela saa jijiji ja saa tisa, naliji nkupopela mu nyuumba jangu. Chisisimuchile nammweni mundu jwawasile iwalo yeswela mbee ajimi paujo pangu,
And Cornelius was saying; Ago four days until this the hour I was (fasting and *K*) at the ninth (hour *k*) praying in the house of mine, and behold a man stood before me in apparel bright
31 ni ŵatite, ‘Che Konolio! Akunnungu akupilikene kupopela kwenu ni akusikumbuchila sadaka simwapele ŵakulaga.
and said; Cornelius, has been heard your prayer and the alms of you was remembered before God.
32 Nipele muntume mundu ku Yopa akammilanje mundu liina lyakwe che Simoni, pane akummilanga che Petulo, jweleju akutama ku che Simoni jwakukolosya mapende, nyuumba jakwe jili mungulugulu mbwani.’
do send therefore to Joppa and do yourself call for Simon who is called Peter; He lodges in [the] house of Simon a tanner by [the] sea (who having come he will speak to you. *K*)
33 Nipele, chitema pe naatumile ŵandu kukwenu, nomwe ntesile yambone pa kwika. Sambano uweji wose tuli paujo pa Akunnungu, kupilikanila chachili chose chantumile Ambuje kusala.”
At once therefore I sent to you, you yourself then well did having come. Now therefore all we ourselves before God are present to hear all the [things] commanded you by the (Lord. *N(K)O*)
34 Pelepo che Petulo ŵatandite kuŵecheta achitiji, “Sambano ngumanyilila kuti isyene Akunnungu nganakola lusagu.
Having opened then Peter the mouth he said; Of a truth I grasped that not is One who shows partiality God,
35 Nambo mundu jwa chilambo chachili chose, jwakwajogopa Akunnungu ni kupanganya yaili yambone paujo pao, akukundikwa nawo.
but in every nation which is fearing Him and working righteousness acceptable to Him is.
36 Ŵanyamwe nkuumanyilila utenga uŵaupeleche Akunnungu kwa ŵandu ŵa ku Isilaeli, achijenesyaga Ngani Jambone jajikwikanawo chitendewele kwa litala li Che Yesu Kilisito, ŵaali Ambuje ŵa wose.
the word that He sent to the sons of Israel evangelising [about] peace through Jesus Christ — He is of all Lord,
37 Ŵanyamwe nkulimanyilila alila lilyatyochele mchilambo chose cha Ŵayahudi, chitandile ku Galilaya, che Yohana paŵamasile kulalichila utenga wa ubatiso.
You yourselves know the having come declaration through all Judea, (having begun *N(k)O*) from Galilee after the baptism that proclaimed John:
38 Nkumanyilila iŵatite Akunnungu pakunsagula Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti kwa kwatuluchisya Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni machili. Pakuŵa Akunnungu ŵaliji pamo nawo, nipele ŵaliji nkwendajenda akuno ni akunokuno achitendaga yambone ni kwalamya wose ŵaŵakamwilwe ni Ibilisi.
Jesus from Nazareth, how anointed Him God Spirit with Holy and with power, who went about doing good and healing all those being oppressed by the devil, because God was with Him;
39 Noweji tuli ŵaumboni wa yose iŵatesile mmusi wa Ŵayahudi ni mu Yelusalemu. Ŵambuleje kwa kwaŵamba pansalaba,
And we ourselves (are *k*) witnesses of all things that He did in both the region of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom (also *no*) they executed having hanged [Him] on a tree.
40 nambo Akunnungu ŵansyusisye pa lyuŵa lyaatatu ni kwatenda awoneche pangasisika.
This One God raised up (on *n*) the third day and gave Him revealed to become
41 Nganawoneka kwa ŵandu wose, nambo kwa aŵala ŵaumboni ŵaŵasagwile Akunnungu, yaani uweji utwalile ni kung'wa pamo nawo, paŵamasile kusyuka.
not [revealed] to all the people, but to [the] witnesses who chosen beforehand by God to us who we ate with and we drank with Him after rising of Him out from [the] dead;
42 Ni ŵatulajisye tulalichile Ngani Jambone kwa ŵandu wose ni kuŵalanga umboni kuti Che Yesu ni ŵaŵasagulikwe ni Akunnungu kuti ŵaalamule ŵajumi ni ŵawe.
And He instructed us to proclaim to the people and to testify fully that (He *N(k)O*) is the [One] appointed by God [as] judge of living and dead.
43 Ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu wose ŵasasile umboni nkati ŵelewo kuti mu liina lyao, jwalijose jwakwakulupilila chalecheleswe sambi syakwe syose.”
To Him all the prophets bear witness [that] forgiveness of sins receiving through the name of Him everyone who is believing in Him.
44 Che Petulo paŵaŵechetaga maloŵe go, Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵatuluchile ŵanawose ŵaŵaupilikanilaga utenga wao.
Still when is speaking Peter declarations these fell the Spirit Holy upon all those hearing the word.
45 Ni Ŵayahudi ŵaŵakulupilile ŵaŵapechesye che Petulo kutyochela ku Yopa ŵala ŵasimosile kuwona kuti Akunnungu ŵatuluchisye ukombole wa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi.
And were amazed the from [the] circumcision believers (as many as *NK(O)*) had come with Peter, that even upon the Gentiles the gift of the Holy (*o*) Spirit has been poured out;
46 Pakuŵa ŵaapilikene achiŵechetaga iŵecheto yakusimosya paŵakusyaga Akunnungu. Pelepo che Petulo ŵatite,
They were hearing for when they are speaking in tongues and magnifying God. Then answered (*k*) Peter;
47 “Ŵandu ŵa apochele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu mpela uweji itutite pakupochela. Ana kwana mundu jwalijose juchakombole kwakanya kuti anabatiswe ni meesi?”
surely not ever the water is able to withhold anyone not to baptize these who the Spirit Holy have received (as *N(k)O*) also [have] we ourselves?
48 Nipele, ŵalamwile kuti abatiswe kwa liina li Che Yesu Kilisito. Nipele ŵandu ŵala ŵaachondelele che Petulo kuti atame nawo moŵa gampepe.
He commanded (now *N(k)O*) them in the name (of Jesus Christ *NO*) to be baptized (of the Lord. *K*) Then they asked him to remain days some.
