1 Achinduna ni ŵandu ŵane ŵakunkulupilila Che Yesu ŵaŵatemi ku Yudea ŵapilikene kuti ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi nombe apochele Liloŵe lya Akunnungu.
Nowe the Apostles and the brethren that were in Iudea, heard, that the Gentiles had also receiued the worde of God.
2 Nipele, che Petulo paŵausile ku Yelusalemu, aŵala Ŵayahudi ŵaŵakulupilile Che Yesu ŵaŵaumbele, ŵaalalatile,
And when Peter was come vp to Hierusalem, they of the circumcision contended against him,
3 achitiji, “Mmwejo mwajawile kukutama ni ŵandu ŵangaumbala ni kulya nawo!”
Saying, Thou wentest in to men vncircumcised, and hast eaten with them.
4 Pelepo che Petulo ŵatandite kwagopolela yeleyo chimo chimo kuti.
Then Peter beganne, and expounded the thing in order to them, saying,
5 “Lyuŵa limo naliji nkupopela musi wa ku Yopa, pelepo naiweni yakwiwona, nachiweni chindu mpela shuka jajikulungwa jili jeŵambe mmalombo gakwe gancheche chilinkutuluswa kutyochela kwinani, ni kwika panaliji une.
I was in the citie of Ioppa, praying, and in a trance I sawe this vision, A certaine vessell comming downe as it had bene a great sheete, let downe from heauen by the foure corners, and it came to me.
6 Nalingulile uchenene nkati, naiweni inyama ya kulangwa yana makongolo ncheche ni inyama ya mwikonde ni inyama yaikukwaŵa ni ijuni.
Towarde the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and sawe foure footed beastes of the earth, and wilde beastes, and creeping things, and foules of the heauen.
7 Nipele napilikene liloŵe lichisalilaga, ‘Che Petulo njime, nsikite ndye.’
Also I heard a voyce, saying vnto me, Arise, Peter: slay and eate.
8 Ni uneji najanjile, ‘Ngwamba, Ambuje, pakuŵa chindu chachili chose changaswejeswa atamuno chakusakala nganichijinjile ng'o pakang'wa pangu.’
And I said, God forbid, Lord: for nothing polluted or vncleane hath at any time entred into my mouth.
9 Nambo liloŵe lila lyapikaniche kaaŵili kutyochela kwinani lichitiji, ‘Yaiswejesye Akunnungu, alakwe nkaiŵilanga yakusakala.’
But the voyce answered me the seconde time from heauen, The things that God hath purified, pollute thou not.
10 Chelechi chatendekwe katatu, ni mbesi jakwe indu yose yanyakulikwe sooni kwinani.
And this was done three times, and all were taken vp againe into heauen.
11 Pangakaŵa, ŵandu ŵatatu ŵaŵalajiswe kukwangu kutyochela ku Kaisalia ŵaiche pa nyuumba jinatamaga.
Then behold, immediatly there were three men already come vnto the house where I was, sent from Cesarea vnto me.
12 Mbumu Jwanswela ŵasalile longane nawo pangali lipamba. Ni ŵanyaŵa sita nalongene nawo ku Kaisalia ni kweleko twajinjile mu nyuumba ji che Konolio.
And the Spirit saide vnto me, that I should go with them, without doubting: moreouer these sixe brethren came with me, and we entred into the mans house.
13 Che Konolio ŵatusalile iŵatite pakummona katumetume jwa kwinani juŵajimi mu nyuumba jakwe ni kunsalila, ‘Muntume mundu ku Yopa akammilanje mundu liina lyakwe che Simoni, pane akuŵilanjikwa che Petulo.
And he shewed vs, howe he had seene an Angel in his house, which stoode and said to him, Send men to Ioppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter.
14 Ŵelewo chaachinsalila maloŵe, ganti chigankulupusye mmwejo ni ŵandu ŵaali mu nyuumba jenu wose.’
He shall speake wordes vnto thee, whereby both thou and all thine house shalbe saued.
15 Panatandite kuŵecheta, Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵaatuluchile mpela yatite pakututuluchila uweji kundanda.
And as I began to speake, the holy Ghost fell on them, euen as vpon vs at the beginning.
16 Pelepo nagakumbuchile maloŵe ga Ambuje paŵatite, ‘Che Yohana ŵabatisye kwa meesi, nambo ŵanyamwe chimbatiswe kwa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.’
Then I remembred the word of the Lord, howe he said, Iohn baptized with water, but ye shalbe baptized with the holy Ghost.
17 Nipele iŵaga Akunnungu ŵapele ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ntuuka ulaula watupele uweji utukwakulupilila Ambuje Che Yesu Kilisito, ana uneji ŵaani naakanile Akunnungu?”
For as much then as God gaue them a like gift, as he did vnto vs, when we beleeued in the Lord Iesus Christ, who was I, that I coulde let God?
18 Paŵapilikene yeleyo, ŵalesile makani ni kwakusya Akunnungu achitiji, “Akunnungu ŵapele ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi lipesa lya kuleka sambi, akole umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi!”
When they heard these things, they helde their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles graunted repentance vnto life.
19 Ligongo lya kulagaswa kukwatandite paŵauleje che Stefano, ŵandu ŵaŵakulupilile Che Yesu ŵala ŵapwilingene. Ŵane ŵajawile mpaka ku Foinike ni ku Kupulo ni ku Antiokia achilalichilaga Liloŵe lya Akunnungu kwa Ŵayahudi pe.
And they which were scattered abroade because of the affliction that arose about Steuen, went throughout till they came vnto Phenice and Cyprus, and Antiochia, preaching the worde to no man, but vnto the Iewes onely.
20 Nambo ŵapali ŵane ŵa ŵanyawo ŵaŵatyochele ku Kupulo ni ku Kulene, ŵajawile ku Antiokia ni kwenesya ngani jo kwa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, achilalichilaga Ngani Jambone ja Ambuje Che Yesu.
Now some of them were men of Cyprus and of Cyrene, which when they were come into Antiochia, spake vnto the Grecians, and preached the Lord Iesus.
21 Ambuje ŵaalongwesye kwa ukombole wao, ni ŵandu ŵajinji ŵakulupilile ni kwaujilila Ambuje.
And the hand of the Lord was with them, so that a great number beleeued and turned vnto the Lord.
22 Ni ngani syo syapikaniche kwa mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ku Yelusalemu. Nipele ŵantumile che Banaba ajaule ku Antiokia.
Then tydings of those things came vnto the eares of the Church, which was in Hierusalem, and they sent foorth Barnabas, that he should goe vnto Antiochia.
23 Nombejo paŵaiche kweleko ni kwiwona iŵatite Akunnungu pakwapa upile ŵandu ŵala, ŵasengwile ni kwachisya ŵandu apunde kwakulupilila Ambuje kwa mitima jao jose.
Who when he was come and had seene the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted all, that with purpose of heart they would continue in the Lord.
24 Che Banaba ŵaliji mundu jwambone ni jwagumbele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni chikulupi. Kwa ligongo li che Banaba, mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu wajonjesyeche kwa Ambuje.
For he was a good man, and full of the holy Ghost, and faith, and much people ioyned them selues vnto the Lord.
25 Nipele che Banaba ŵajawile ku Taso kukwasosa che Sauli.
Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus to seeke Saul:
26 Paŵasimene, ŵalongene nawo ku Antiokia. Ni wose ŵanaŵaŵili ŵatemi ni mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito chaka chansima, achiujiganyaga mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu. Ku Antiokia ko ni kukwaliji kwaandanda ŵakulijiganya kuŵilanjikwa Ŵakilisito.
And when he had founde him, he brought him vnto Antiochia: and it came to passe that a whole yere they were conuersant with ye Church, and taught much people, in so much that the disciples were first called Christians in Antiochia.
27 Ni katema kakoko, ku Antiokia ko ŵaiche ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵampepe kutyochela ku Yelusalemu.
In those dayes also came Prophets from Hierusalem vnto Antiochia.
28 Nipele, jumo jwa ŵanyawo liina lyakwe che Agabo ŵajimi ni kwa machili ga Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵalondwele kuti, chijityochele sala jajikulungwa mchilambo chose. Sala jo jatyochele katema ka mwenye che Kilaudio.
And there stoode vp one of them named Agabus, and signified by the Spirit, that there should be great famine throughout all the world, which also came to passe vnder Claudius Cesar.
29 Ŵakulijiganya ŵala, jwalijose malinga ni ukombole wakwe ŵaakamuchisye achinjao ŵaŵakulupilile Che Yesu ŵaŵatamaga ku Yudea.
Then the disciples, euery man according to his ability, purposed to sende succour vnto the brethren which dwelt in Iudea.
30 Nipele, ŵatesile yeleyo ni kwatuma che Banaba ni che Sauli kuti apeleche kwa achakulu ŵa mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito.
Which thing they also did, and sent it to the Elders, by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
