Masengo 18
1 Payamasile yeleyo, che Paolo ŵatyosile ku Asene ni kwaula ku Kolinto.
And after these things Paul having separated from Athens, he came to Corinth.
2 Ku Kolinto ko ŵansimene Myahudi jumo jwa ku Ponto liina lyakwe che Akila. Che Akila ŵaliji pamo ni ŵankwawo jwakuŵilanjikwa che Pilisila, ni mmoŵa gagogo pego ŵausile kutyochela ku Italia pakuŵa mwenye che Kilaudio ŵalamwile kuti Ŵayahudi wose atyoche ku Loma. Che Paolo ni ŵajawile kukwalola,
And having found a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by origin, who recently came from Italy, and his wife Priscilla, because Claudius arranged for all the Jews to separate from Rome, he came to them.
3 ni pakuŵa masengo gao galiji gamo, masengo gakutota mahema, che Paolo ŵatemi nawo ni kupanganya masengo.
And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and was working, for they were of the tentmakers craft.
4 Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila lili lyose che Paolo ŵaŵechetesyene ni ŵandu mu nyuumba ja kupopelela achilingaga kwachisya Ŵayahudi ni Ŵagiliki.
And he was discoursing in the synagogue every sabbath, and was persuading Jews and Greeks.
5 Che Sila ni che Timoseo paŵaiche kutyochela ku Makedonia, che Paolo ŵalityosisye kwa katema kakajinji kulalichila Liloŵe achalosyaga pangasisa Ŵayahudi kuti Che Yesu ali Chiwombosyo.
And when both Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was being held by the Spirit, fully testifying to the Jews, Jesus the Christ.
6 Nambo paŵankanile ni kuntukana, che Paolo ŵakung'undile luundu mu iwalo yao paujo pao ni kuti, “Mwajonasikaga, chinnyimanyilile mwachinsyene, uneji nganingola magambo. Ni kutandila sambano chinaajaulile ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi.”
But when they opposed and slandered him, having shaken out his clothes, he said to them, Your blood is upon your heads. I am clean. From henceforth I will go to the Gentiles.
7 Nipele che Paolo ŵatyosile kweleko ni kwaula kutama mu nyuumba ja mundu jumo jwangaŵa Myahudi, juŵaajogopaga Akunnungu, mundu jo liina lyakwe che Tito Yusto, nyuumba jao jaŵandikene ni nyuumba ja kupopelela.
And having departed from there, he went into the house of a certain man named Justus, who worships God, whose house was adjoining the synagogue.
8 Che Kilispo, juŵaliji jwankulu jwa nyuumba ja kupopelela jila pamo ni ŵaali mu nyuumba jao wose ŵaakulupilile Ambuje. Ŵakolinto ŵajinji ŵaupilikanile utenga wo nipele ŵakulupilile ni kubatiswa.
And Crispus, the synagogue ruler, believed in the Lord with his whole household, and many of the Corinthians who heard believed, and were immersed.
9 Chilo chimo Ambuje ŵansalile che Paolo mu yakwiwona, “Kasinjogopa, nlimbile kulalichila pe ni nkaleka kupanganya chinkuchipanganya cho,
And the Lord spoke to Paul by a vision at night, Fear not, but speak, and be not silent,
10 pakuŵa uneji nansyene ndili pamo nomwe. Ngapagwa jwalijose juchalinje kumpoteka pakuŵa pamusi wu ngwete ŵandu ŵajinji.”
because I am with thee, and no man will lay upon thee to harm thee, because many people are for me in this city.
11 Nipele, che Paolo ŵatemi kweleko chaka ni miesi nsano ni umo achajiganyaga ŵandu Liloŵe lya Akunnungu.
And he remained a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
12 Nambo katema che Galio paŵaliji jwankulu jwa chilambo cha Akaya, Ŵayahudi ŵasimene, ŵankamwile che Paolo ni kunjausya ku nkungulu.
But Gallio being proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord attacked Paul and brought him to the judgment seat,
13 Ni ŵatite, “Mundu ju akwachisya ŵandu ŵapopelele Akunnungu pangagakuya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa.”
saying, This man is persuading men to worship God against the law.
14 Che Paolo akanaŵe kuŵecheta, che Galio ŵaasalile Ŵayahudi, “Mpilikanile ŵanyamwe Ŵayahudi! Ikaliji isyene mundu ju aleŵile pane atesile yangalumbana ngampilikanichisye.
But when Paul was going to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If therefore indeed it were some crime or evil reckless deed, O ye Jews, I would have tolerated you according to the matter.
15 Nambo iŵaga makani ga gali gankati maloŵe ni meena ni malajisyo genu, nlamule mwachinsyene. Uneji ngangusaka kuŵa jwakulamula jwa indu yo!”
But if it is an issue about a word and names and the law from you, look ye yourselves, for I do not intend to be a judge of these things.
16 Nipele ŵaaŵinjile ŵanyawo akopoche pa nkungulu.
And he drove them from the judgment seat.
17 Ni ŵandu wose ŵankamwile che Sositene juŵaliji jwankulu jwa nyuumba ja kupopelela jila ni ŵamputile palapala paujo pa nkungulu ula. Nambo che Galio nganaikosya yeleyo.
But all the Greeks, having taken Sosthenes the synagogue ruler, were beating him in front of the judgment seat. And Gallio was not going to judge, even of these things.
18 Che Paolo ŵatemi ni ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Che Yesu ŵala ku Kolinto ko moŵa gamajinji. Nipele ŵaalanjile, ŵakwesile ngalaŵa pamo ni che Pilisila ni che Akila ni kwaula ku Silia. Paŵaiche ku Kenkelea, che Paolo ŵamyosile umbo syao mu ntwe ligongo ŵataŵile nasili.
But Paul, who still remained considerable days with the brothers, having separated, sailed away to Syria (and with him Priscilla and Aquila), having shaved his head in Cenchrea, for he had a vow.
19 Ni ŵaiche ku Efeso, kweleko che Paolo ŵalesile che Pilisila ni che Akila, ŵajinjile mu nyuumba ja kupopelela ni kutanda kuusyausyana ni Ŵayahudi.
And he came to Ephesus and left behind those there, but having entered into the synagogue himself, he discoursed with the Jews.
20 Ŵandu ŵa pelepo ŵachondelele che Paolo atame pamo ni ŵandu wo moŵa gamajinji gane, nambo che Paolo nganasaka.
And when they asked him to remain on more time with them, he did not consent,
21 Nambo paŵalangaga ŵatite, “Chimuje sooni kukwenu Akunnungu asakaga.” Ni ŵakwesile mu ngalaŵa jekulungwa ni kutyoka mu Efeso mula.
but separated from them, having said, I must definitely keep the coming feast at Jerusalem, but I will return again to you, God willing. And he launched from Ephesus.
22 Che Paolo paŵaiche ku Kaisalia, ŵajawile ku Yelusalemu kukuukomasya mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵa kweleko, nipele ŵatuluchile ku Antiokia.
And after coming down to Caesarea, having gone up and greeted the church, he went down to Antioch.
23 Che Paolo ŵatemi kweleko moŵa kanandipe ni ŵatandite ulendo achipitilaga ku Galatia ni ku Filigia achalimbisyaga mitima ŵandu wose ŵakwakuya Che Yesu.
And after spending some time, he departed, passing through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, successively, strengthening all the disciples.
24 Nipele Myahudi jumo liina lyakwe che Apolo mundu jwa ku Alekisandilia, ŵaiche ku Efeso. Mundu ju ŵaliji jwakuŵecheta uchenene ni juŵagamanyililaga Malembelo ga Akunnungu.
Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by origin, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus, being mighty in the scriptures.
25 Mundu ju ŵajiganyikwe litala lya Ambuje ni mu mbumu ŵachalilaga kusala ngani si Che Yesu, ŵajiganyisye chenene ngani si Che Yesu namuno ŵaumanyilile ubatiso u che Yohana pe.
This was a man who was instructed in the way of the Lord. And being fervent in the Spirit, he was speaking and teaching accurately the things about the Lord, knowing only the immersion of John.
26 Che Pilisila ni che Akila paŵampilikene mundu jo ali nkuŵecheta mu nyuumba ja kupopelela pangajogopa, ŵanjigele kumangwao ni kunjiganya Litala lya Akunnungu kwa uchenene nnope.
And this man began to speak boldly in the synagogue, but when Aquila and Priscilla heard him, they took him aside, and expounded to him the way of God more accurately.
27 Che Apolo paŵasachile kwaula ku Akaya, ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Che Yesu ŵa ku Efeso ŵanlimbisye ntima ni kwalembela ŵakulijiganya ŵa ku Akaya kuti ampochele. Che Apolo paŵaiche kweleko, Akunnungu ŵankamuchisye mu upile wao, ni ŵakombwele kwakamusya nnope ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Che Yesu,
And when he intended to pass through into Achaia, the brothers wrote, having encouraged the disciples to receive him, who, when he arrived, assisted much those who believed through the grace.
28 kwa ukombole wao wa kuŵecheta ŵapundile Ŵayahudi paujo pa ŵandu achalosyaga Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu kuti Che Yesu ali Kilisito.
For he forcibly refuted the Jews in public, demonstrating by the scriptures Jesus to be the Christ.
