1 Palyaiche lyuŵa lya Pentekosite ŵakukulupilila wose ŵasongangene peuto pamo.
And on the day of Pentecost they were all together in one place.
2 Chisisimuchile, lyapikaniche liloŵe mpela mbungo ja machili kutyochela kwinani ni lyagumbele mu nyuumba mose muŵatemi ŵandu.
And suddenly there came out of heaven a sound, as of a rushing mighty wind; and it filled the whole house where they were sitting;
3 Nipele, yakopochele indu iyaoneche mpela malamba ga mooto, yajenele ni yatusile pachanya pa kila jumo jwao.
and there appeared to them tongues as of fire, distributing themselves; and one sat upon each of them.
4 Wose ŵagumbele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni ŵatandite kuŵecheta iŵecheto ineine mpela Mbumu iŵatite pakwakombolesya.
And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, even as the Spirit gave them utterance.
5 Ku Yelusalemu kula kwaliji ni Ŵayahudi, ŵandu ŵakwajitichisya Akunnungu ŵaŵakopochele mu misi jinejine pa chilambo pano.
Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
6 Ŵandu paŵapilikene liloŵe lyo, mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu wasongangene. Ni wose ŵasimosile nnope pakuŵa mundu jwalijose ŵaapikanaga ŵanyawo achiŵechetaga chiŵecheto chakwe nsyene.
And when this sound took place, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because every one heard them speaking in his own language.
7 Ni wose ŵasimosile akuno achitiji, “Ana wose utukwapilikana achiŵechetaga yelei nganaŵa ŵandu ŵa ku Galilaya?
And they were amazed, and marveled, saying, Behold, are not all these who speak Galilaeans?
8 Ana iŵele uli ŵanyaŵa pakuŵecheta uweji tukupilikana jwalijose mchiŵecheto chetu twachinsyene?
and how is it that we every one hear them in our own language, wherein we were born?
9 Ŵampepe mwa uweji ali Ŵapalisi ni Ŵamedi ni Ŵaelami, ŵane akutamanga ku Mesopotamia ni ku Yudea ni ku Kapadokia ni ku Ponto ni ku Asia ni
Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those who inhabit Mesopotamia, Judaea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
10 ku Filigia ni ku Pamfilia ni ku Misili ni ilambo ya ku Libia kuŵandikana ni ku Kulene, ŵane mwa uweji ali achalendo kutyochela ku Loma.
Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and Romans who sojourn here, both Jews and Proselytes,
11 Ŵayahudi ni ŵandu ŵaŵajinjile mu dini ja Chiyahudi, ŵane ŵakopochele ku Kilete ni ku Alabia. Uweji wose tukwapikana ŵandu wo ali nkuŵecheta mu iŵecheto yetu twachinsyene yankati masengo gamakulungwa ga Akunnungu.”
Cretans and Arabians—how is it that we hear them speaking in our tongues the wonderful works of God?
12 Wose ŵasimosile ni kukangana akuno achiusyanaga kuti, “Chelechi malumbo gakwe chichi?”
And they were all amazed and were in doubt, saying one to another, What can this mean?
13 Nambo ŵane ŵanyelwisye achitiji, “Ŵandu ŵa akolelwe.”
Others making sport of it, said, They are full of new wine.
14 Nambo che Petulo ŵajimi pamo ni achinduna likumi ni jumo ŵala ni ŵatandite kwasalila ŵandu kwa kunyanyisya, “Ŵanyamwe Ŵayahudi achinjangu ni ŵandu wose ŵankutama pa Yelusalemu pano nninde nansalile ni ŵanyamwe mumbilikanile chenene maloŵe gangu.
But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Men of Judea, and all that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and hearken to my words.
15 Ŵandu ŵa nganakolelwa mpela inkuti pakuganisya, pakuŵa sambano jino jili saa tatu ja kundaŵi.
For these are not drunken, as ye suppose; for it is the third hour of the day;
16 Usyene uli awu, chachikopochele chi ni chechila chasasile che Yoeli jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu paŵatite,
but this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel,
17 ‘Akunnungu akuti, pa gele moŵa ga mbesi, chinaape ŵandu wose Mbumu jwangu. Achiŵana ŵenu ŵachilume ni ŵachikongwe chaachilondola, ni achachanda ŵenu chaachilola yakulola, ni achachekulu ŵenu chachisagamila.
“It shall be in the last days, saith God, that I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams;
18 Elo, iyoyo achikapolo ŵangu achalume ni achakongwe, moŵa go chinaape Mbumu jwangu, nombewo chaachilondola.
and even on my servants, and on my handmaids, I will pour out of my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.
19 Chinjitendekanya yakusimonjeka kwiunde, ni imanyisyo pa chilambo, kuchiwe ni miasi ni mooto ni lyosi lyakutopela,
And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke;
20 Lyuŵa chilichigalauka kuŵa chipi, ni lwesi chiluŵe lwechejeu mpela miasi, likaniiche lyelila lyuŵa lya Ambuje lyekulungwa ni lya ukulu.
the sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the day of the Lord cometh, the great and notable day.
21 Pelepo, jwalijose juchapopele kwa liina lya Ambuje chakulupuswe.’
And it shall be that every one that calleth on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
22 “Ŵanyamwe Ŵaisilaeli, mpilikanichisye maloŵe ga! Akunnungu ŵammanyisye kukwenu Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti kwa ilosyo ni yakusimonjeka ni imanyisyo iŵaipanganyisye Akunnungu mwa ŵanyamwe kwa litala lyakwe mpela inkuti pakwimanyilila mwachinsyene.
Men of Israel, hear these words! Jesus the Nazarene, a man approved of God to you by miracles, and wonders, and signs, which God wrought by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves know, —
23 Pakuŵa kutyochela kundanda Akunnungu asyene ŵasachile kuti ŵanyamwe mummulaje Che Yesu, ni ŵanyamwe mwammuleje kwa kwalechela ŵandu ŵangalumbana ŵaŵambe pansalaba.
this man, being delivered up by the settled purpose and foreknowledge of God, ye, by the hand of godless men, crucified and slew.
24 Nambo Akunnungu ŵansyusisye, ni ŵankulupwisye mu ipwetesi ya chiwa pakuŵa nginikomboleka kuti chiwa chaugalile.
But God raised him up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it.
25 Pakuŵa che Daudi ŵankunguluchile Che Yesu yeleyi, ‘Naaweni Ambuje mmbujo mwangu moŵa gose, pakuŵa ali kundyo kwangu ngandinganyika.
For David saith concerning him, “I saw the Lord always before me; because he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
26 Kwa ligongo lyo ntima wangu wasangalele, sooni nagombile ilulu yakusengwa. Chiilu changu chichitame mu chilolelo,
Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue exulted; moreover also, my flesh shall dwell in hope;
27 pakuŵa, alakwe Akunnungu nganjileka mbumu jangu kwiuto kwa ŵandu ŵawile, natamuno kwitichisya Jwanswela jwenu asigale ali awile mwilembe. (Hadēs g86)
because thou wilt not abandon my soul to the underworld, nor wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
28 Muunosisye matala ga umi, chimung'umbasye kusengwa kwa upagwe wenu!’
Thou didst make known to me the ways of life; thou wilt make me full of joy with thy countenance.”
29 “Achalongo achinjangu, ngusaka nansalile pangasisa yankati indu iyaasimene atati ŵetu che Daudi. Ŵelewo ŵajasiche ni kusichikwa, ni sooni lilembe lyakwe lili papapa pamangwetu mpaka lelo jino.
Brethren, I may speak to you with freedom of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is among us to this day.
30 Nambo pakuŵa che Daudi ŵaliji jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu, ŵaimanyi kuti Akunnungu ŵaalumbilile ni chilumbilo kuti jumo jwa wisukulu wao chaachintenda mwenye mpela yatite kuŵa che Daudi.
Being then a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath that he would set one sprung from his loins upon his throne,
31 Che Daudi ŵalongolele kwiwona indu ichaitendekanye Akunnungu, nipele ŵaŵechete yankati kusyuka kwa Kilisito Chiwombosyo paŵatite, ‘Nganalekwa kwiuto kwa ŵandu ŵawile, atamuno chiilu chao nganichiola.’ (Hadēs g86)
he foresaw and spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that neither was he abandoned to the underworld, nor did his flesh see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
32 Nipele, Akunnungu ni ŵaŵansyusisye Che Yesu jo ni uweji wose tuli ŵa umboni wa indu yo.
This Jesus God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
33 Che Yesu paŵakwesiswe ni kuŵichikwa ni Akunnungu kundyo kwao, ŵampochele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu kutyochela kwa Atati ŵao mpela iŵatite pakulanga. Atupele mbumu jo, chelecho ni chinkuchiwona ni kuchipilikana sambano.
Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, he hath poured forth this, which ye both see and hear.
34 Pakuŵa che Daudi nsyene nganakwela mpaka kwinani, nambo ŵatite, ‘Ambuje ŵaasalile Ambuje ŵangu, ntame apano kundyo kwangu,
For David did not ascend into the heavens; but he himself saith, The Lord said to my lord, “Sit thou on my right hand,
35 mpaka pachinaatende ŵammagongo ŵenu kuŵa chitengu cha kuŵichila makongolo genu.’”
until I make thine enemies thy footstool.”
36 “Ŵandu wose ŵa ku Isilaeli akusachilwa amanyilile kwa isyene kuti jwejula Che Yesu jumwaŵambile pansalaba, Akunnungu antesile kuŵa Ambuje ni Kilisito Chiwombosyo.”
Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified.
37 Ni ŵandu paŵapilikene yeleyo, yaapeteche mmitima ni ŵausisye Che Petulo ni achinduna ŵane ŵala kuti, “Achalongo achinjetu, ana tutende chichi?”
And when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what must we do?
38 Che Petulo ŵaajanjile, “Mundu jwalijose aleche sambi syakwe ni kubatiswa kwa ulamusi u Che Yesu Kilisito ni Akunnungu channechelesye sambi syenu ni kupochela chilanga cha Akunnungu chachili Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
But Peter said to them, Repent, and let every one of you be baptized to the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 Pakuŵa chilanga chila chaliji kwa ligongo lyenu ni kwa ligongo lya achiŵana ŵenu ni kwa ligongo lya ŵandu wose ŵakutama kwakutalika, ni mundu jwali jose juchaŵilanjikwe ni Ambuje Akunnungu ŵetu.”
For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call.
40 Kwa maloŵe gamajinji che Petulo ŵaajamwiche ŵandu ni kwachondelela achitiji, “Nlikulupusye mwachinsyene mu uŵelesi wangalumbana wu.”
And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.
41 Ŵandu ŵajinji ŵajitichisye maloŵe gakwe ni kubatiswa. Pa lyuŵa lyo ŵandu elufu tatu ŵajonjesyeche.
They therefore received his word, and were baptized; and there were added on that day about three thousand souls.
42 Ŵelewo wose ŵapundile kujiganyikwa ni achinduna ŵa Che Yesu, ŵatemi pamo chiulongo, ŵalile chakulya cha Ambuje pamo ni kupopela.
And they were constantly attending on the teaching of the apostles, and the imparting [[of their substance]], the breaking of bread, and the prayers.
43 Yakusimonjeka ni imanyisyo yejinji yatendekwe ni achinduna ŵala ni jwalijose ŵakamwilwe ni woga.
And fear came upon every soul; and many wonders and signs were wrought through the apostles.
44 Ŵakukulupilila wose ŵatemi pamo ni iŵakwete yose ŵagaŵene.
And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
45 Ni ŵasumisye indu ni ipanje yao ni kugaŵilana mbiya mundu jwalijose yaikuti pakunsoŵa.
and they sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as any one had need.
46 Lyuŵa ni lyuŵa ŵachinganganaga pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu. Ŵalyaga chakulya pamo mmajumba gao kwa kusangalala ni kwa ntima weswela.
And attending daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread in a private house, they partook of their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
47 Ŵaalapile Akunnungu ni ŵandu wose ŵaanonyele ŵandu wo. Ni lyuŵa ni lyuŵa Ambuje ŵaajonjechesye ŵandu ŵaŵaliji nkukulupuswa.
praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were in the way of salvation.
