1 Nipele, ku Ikonio ko che Paolo ni che Banaba ŵajawile mu nyuumba ja kupopelela Ŵayahudi mpela iŵatite pakusyoŵelela ni kuŵecheta pangali lipamba, mpaka Ŵayahudi ŵajinji ni Ŵagiliki ŵakulupilile.
And it came to pass at Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and spoke in such a manner that a great multitude, both of the Jews and of the Greeks, believed.
2 Nambo Ŵayahudi ŵangakwakulupilila Che Yesu ŵaachisisye ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi kuti ŵaachime che Paolo ni che Banaba.
But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the minds of the Gentiles, and filled them with malignity against the brethren.
3 Che Paolo ni che Banaba ŵatemi kweleko moŵa gamajinji. Ŵaŵechete pangali lipamba yankati Ambuje, ni Ambuje wo ŵalosisye pangasisa usyene wa utenga waujenesye nkati upile wao, kwa kwakombolechesya kutendekanya imanyisyo ni yakusimonjeka.
They, however, staid there a considerable time, speaking boldly for the Lord; who gave attestation to the word of his grace, and granted signs and miracles to be done by their hands.
4 Nambo ŵandu wose ŵa musi wo ŵasapulene, ŵane ŵalumbikene ni Ŵayahudi ni ŵane ŵalumbikene ni achinduna ŵala.
So the multitude of the city was divided; and some were with the Jews, and others with the Apostles.
5 Nipele, ŵampepe mwa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ni Ŵayahudi pamo ni ilongola ŵao, ŵalamwile kwapanganyichisya yangalumbana achinduna ŵala ni kwaulaga kwa kwaputa maganga.
But, as a violent attempt was made, both by the Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, to assault and stone them;
6 Achinduna nkumanyilila yeleyo ni ŵautuchile kuchilambo cha ku Likaonio mmisi ja ku Lisita ni ku Debe, ni ilambo yaili mumbali mwakwe,
they, having received intelligence of it, fled to Lystra, and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the adjacent country:
7 ni ŵajendelechele kwalalichila ŵandu Ngani Jambone mmisi jo.
and there they declared the glad tidings.
8 Ku Lisita ko jwapali mundu juŵaliji jwakulemala, ni jwanganajenda kose chitandile kupagwa kwakwe.
Now, there was a certain man at Lystra, disabled in his feet; so lame, from his birth, that he had never walked.
9 Mundu jo ŵampilikanichisye che Paolo paŵalalichilaga. Nipele che Paolo ŵanlolechesye uchenene, ni paŵaimanyilile kuti akwete chikulupi chakombola kulamwa,
This man heard Paul speaking, who, fixing his eyes upon him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed;
10 ŵaŵechete kwa kunyanyisya kuti, “Njime uchenene ni makongolo genu!” Papopo mundu jo ŵasumbile ni kutanda kwenda.
said, with a loud voice, Stand upright on your feet. And he leaped up, and walked.
11 Mpingo wa ŵandu ula paŵachiweni chiŵachipanganyisye che Paolo, ŵatandite kunyanyisya Mchilikaonia achitiji, “Achiminungu atutuluchile chisau ŵandu!”
And the multitude, seeing what Paul had done, lifted up their voices, saying, in the Lycaonian language, The gods are descended to us in the likeness of men.
12 Che Banaba ŵaŵilanjikwe Seu ni pakuŵa che Paolo ŵaliji jwakuŵecheta jwankulu, ŵaŵilanjikwe Helime.
And Barnabas they called Jupiter, and Paul, Mercury, because he was the chief speaker.
13 Ni jŵambopesi jwa nyuumba ja nnungu Seu jijaliji paasa pa musi, ŵajigele ng'ombe ni uluŵa paujo pa nnango wekulungwa wa musi, nsyene pamo ni mpingo wa ŵandu ula ŵasachile ŵatajile mbopesi che Paolo ni che Banaba.
And the priest of Jupiter, whose image was before the city, brought oxen, with garlands, to the gates; and would, with the multitude, have offered sacrifice to them.
14 Nambo che Banaba ni che Paolo paŵajipilikene ngani jo ŵapapwile iwalo yao ni ŵautuchile kwauli mpingo wa ŵandu kula achinyanyisyaga,
But the Apostles, Barnabas and Paul, hearing of it, rent their mantles, and ran in among the multitude, crying out,
15 alinkuti, “Mwanya, ana ligongo chi nkutendekanya yelei? Noweji tuli ŵandu pe mpela ŵanyamwe. Ni sooni tuiche pelepa kukunlalichila Ngani Jambone kuti nneche inyago pe ni kwagalauchila Akunnungu ŵaali ŵajumi, ŵaŵagumbile kwinani ni chilambo ni mbwani ni yose yaili mwelemo.
and saying, Men, why do you these things? We are your fellow-mortals, and are declaring the glad tidings to you, that you may turn from these vanities to the living God; who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all living things which are in them:
16 Kalakala ko Akunnungu ŵaalesile ŵandu wose ŵa pachilambo atendekanye iŵasachile.
who, in former generations, permitted all the nations to walk in their own ways;
17 Natamuno yeleyo Akunnungu nganaleka kulilosya kwakwapanganyichisya yambone, achanyesyesyaga ula kutyochela kwinani ni kwapa masika gambone kwa katema kakwe, akumpa yakulya ni kungumbasya kusengwa mmitima jenu.”
though he did not leave himself without witness, doing good, and giving us showers of rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.
18 Namuno achinduna ŵala ŵatite yeleyo, yalemile kwalekasya ŵandu ŵala akasaŵatajila mbopesi.
And, saying these things, they, with difficulty, restrained the people from sacrificing to them.
19 Nambo ŵaiche Ŵayahudi ŵampepe kutyochela ku Antiokia ni ku Ikonio, ni ŵanyenjile ŵandu ŵapanganyichisye yangalimate che Paolo ni che Banaba. Ni ŵamponyile che Paolo maganga ni kwautila paasa musi achiganisyaga kuti awile.
But Jews came thither from Antioch and Iconium, and persuaded the multitude; and having stoned Paul, they dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.
20 Nambo ŵandu ŵakwakulupilila Che Yesu paŵansyungwile, ŵajimwiche ni kwinjila mmusi. Malaŵi jakwe ŵatyosile pamo ni che Banaba kwaula ku Debe.
But, as the disciples were gathered about him, he rose up, and entered into the city; and the next day he departed, with Barnabas, to Derbe.
21 Che Paolo ni che Banaba ŵaalalichile ŵandu Ngani Jambone ku Debe ko ni kwapata ŵakulijiganya ŵajinji, nipele ŵaujile ku Antiokia achipitilaga ku Lisita ni ku Ikonio.
And having declared the gospel to that city, and made a considerable number of disciples; they returned to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch,
22 Ni ŵaalimbisye ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Che Yesu ŵa misi jo ni kwatulasya ntima kuti atame mchikulupi nkulimbangana. Ni ŵaasalile, “Tukusachilwa kugapitila masausyo gamajinji kuti tujinjile mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
confirming the souls of the disciples; exhorting them to continue in the faith, and testifying that it is necessary we should enter into the kingdom of God through many tribulations.
23 Che Paolo ni che Banaba paŵamasile kwasagula achakulu mu kila mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito, ŵapopele ni kutaŵa nipele ŵaapopelele kwa Ambuje ŵaŵakulupilile kuti chiŵaagose.
And when they had constituted elders for them, in every congregation, having prayed to God, with fasting; they committed them to the Lord, in whom they had believed.
24 Che Paolo ni che Banaba paŵapitaga ku Pisidia ŵaiche ku chilambo cha Pamfilia.
And passing through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.
25 Paŵamasile kulalichila Ngani Jambone kwa ŵandu ŵa ku Pega, ŵatuluchile ku Atalia.
And having spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.
26 Kutyochela ku Atalia ŵajendelechele ni ulendo kwa ngalaŵa jajikulungwa ni kuuja ku Antiokia kuŵaŵisilwe mmakono ga Akunnungu ni kupegwa upile kwa ligongo lya masengo gagali gamamale.
And they sailed thence to Antioch, whence they had been recommended to the grace of God, for that work which they had accomplished.
27 Che Paolo ni che Banaba paŵaiche ku Antiokia ko, ŵasongangenye mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵa pelepo, nipele ŵaasalile yanayose iŵaitesile Akunnungu pamo nawo, ni iŵatite pakwaugulila litala ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵakulupilile Che Yesu.
And when they were come thither, and had gathered the congregation together, they related what God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.
28 Nipele ŵatemi kweleko moŵa gamajinji pamo ni ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Che Yesu.
And they spent a considerable time there with the disciples.
