Masengo 2
1 Palyaiche lyuŵa lya Pentekosite ŵakukulupilila wose ŵasongangene peuto pamo.
And, when the day of pentecost was filling up [the number of days] they were all together with one intent; —
2 Chisisimuchile, lyapikaniche liloŵe mpela mbungo ja machili kutyochela kwinani ni lyagumbele mu nyuumba mose muŵatemi ŵandu.
When there came suddenly out of heaven a sound, just as of a mighty rushing wind, —and it filled all the 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 unto them—parting asunder—tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each one of them;
4 Wose ŵagumbele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni ŵatandite kuŵecheta iŵecheto ineine mpela Mbumu iŵatite pakwakombolesya.
And they were all filled with Holy Spirit, and began to be speaking with other kinds of tongues just as the Spirit was giving unto them to be sounding forth.
5 Ku Yelusalemu kula kwaliji ni Ŵayahudi, ŵandu ŵakwajitichisya Akunnungu ŵaŵakopochele mu misi jinejine pa chilambo pano.
Now there were in Jerusalem sojourning Jews, reverent men from every nation who were 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 this sound occurring the throng came together and was thrown into confusion, because each one severally heard in his own language them who were speaking;
7 Ni wose ŵasimosile akuno achitiji, “Ana wose utukwapilikana achiŵechetaga yelei nganaŵa ŵandu ŵa ku Galilaya?
Yea they were beside themselves and did marvel, saying—Lo! are not all these who are speaking Galilaeans?
8 Ana iŵele uli ŵanyaŵa pakuŵecheta uweji tukupilikana jwalijose mchiŵecheto chetu twachinsyene?
How then do, we, hear each one in our own language in which 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 dwelling in Mesopotamia, Judaea also 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 also and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of the Libya that is towards Cyrene, and the sojourning Romans, —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, we do hear them speaking in our own tongues the magnificent things of God.
12 Wose ŵasimosile ni kukangana akuno achiusyanaga kuti, “Chelechi malumbo gakwe chichi?”
But they were all beside themselves and were utterly at a loss, saying one to another—What doth this please to be?
13 Nambo ŵane ŵanyelwisye achitiji, “Ŵandu ŵa akolelwe.”
While, others, in mockery were saying—With sweet wine, are they drunken!
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, taking his stand, Peter with the eleven lifted up his voice, and sounded out unto them—Ye men of Judaea, and all ye who are sojourning in Jerusalem! Let, this, unto you be known, and give ear unto my declarations; —
15 Ŵandu ŵa nganakolelwa mpela inkuti pakuganisya, pakuŵa sambano jino jili saa tatu ja kundaŵi.
For not, as, ye, suppose, are these men drunken, 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 that which hath been 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.
And it shall be, in the last days saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and, your young men, visions shall see and, your elders, in dreams shall dream, —
18 Elo, iyoyo achikapolo ŵangu achalume ni achakongwe, moŵa go chinaape Mbumu jwangu, nombewo chaachilondola.
And, even upon my men-servants and upon my maid-servants in those days, will I pour out of my Spirit, and they shall prophesy;
19 Chinjitendekanya yakusimonjeka kwiunde, ni imanyisyo pa chilambo, kuchiwe ni miasi ni mooto ni lyosi lyakutopela,
And I will set forth wonders in the heaven above, and signs upon the earth beneath, —blood and fire and vapour of smoke:
20 Lyuŵa chilichigalauka kuŵa chipi, ni lwesi chiluŵe lwechejeu mpela miasi, likaniiche lyelila lyuŵa lya Ambuje lyekulungwa ni lya ukulu.
The sun, shall be turned into darkness and, the moon, into blood, —before the coming of the day of the Lord, the great and manifest [day];
21 Pelepo, jwalijose juchapopele kwa liina lya Ambuje chakulupuswe.’
And it shall be—Whosoever shall call upon 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.
Ye men of Israel! hear these words: —Jesus the Nazarene, a man pointed out of God unto you by mighty works and wonders and signs, which God did through him in your midst, just 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.
The same, by the marked out counsel and foreknowledge of God given up, through the hands of lawless men, suspending, ye slew,
24 Nambo Akunnungu ŵansyusisye, ni ŵankulupwisye mu ipwetesi ya chiwa pakuŵa nginikomboleka kuti chiwa chaugalile.
Whom, God, raised up, loosing the pangs of death, inasmuch as it was, not possible, for him to continue held fast 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 foresaw the Lord before me continually, because he is, on my right hand, that I may not be shaken;
26 Kwa ligongo lyo ntima wangu wasangalele, sooni nagombile ilulu yakusengwa. Chiilu changu chichitame mu chilolelo,
For this reason, was my heart made glad and my tongue exulted, —ye further, even my flesh, shall encamp on 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 unto hades, neither wilt thou give thy man of lovingkindness to see corruption; (Hadēs g86)
28 Muunosisye matala ga umi, chimung'umbasye kusengwa kwa upagwe wenu!’
Thou madest known unto me paths of life, thou wilt make me full of gladness 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! it is, allowable, to say with freedom of speech unto you, concerning the patriarch David, —that he both died and was buried, and, his tomb, is among us until 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, with an oath, God had sworn unto him, of the fruit of his loins, to seat on 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)
With foresight, spake he concerning the resurrection of the Christ—that neither was he abandoned unto hades, 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.
The same Jesus, hath God raised up, whereof, all we, 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.
By the right hand of God, therefore, having been exalted, also, the promise of the Holy Spirit, having received from the Father, He hath poured out this which, yourselves, do see and hear.
34 Pakuŵa che Daudi nsyene nganakwela mpaka kwinani, nambo ŵatite, ‘Ambuje ŵaasalile Ambuje ŵangu, ntame apano kundyo kwangu,
For, David, hath not ascended into the heavens; but he saith, himself, —Said the Lord unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand,
35 mpaka pachinaatende ŵammagongo ŵenu kuŵa chitengu cha kuŵichila makongolo genu.’”
Until I make thy foes 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.”
Assuredly, then, let all the house of Israel know: that, both Lord and Christ, hath God made him, even the same 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 pricked to the heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the apostles—What are we to do, brethren?
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.
And Peter [said] unto them—Repent ye, and let each one of you be immersed, in the name of Jesus Christ, into the remission of your sins, —and ye shall receive the free-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, unto you, is the promise, and unto your children, —and unto all them who are afar off: as many soever as the Lord our God shall call unto him.
40 Kwa maloŵe gamajinji che Petulo ŵaajamwiche ŵandu ni kwachondelela achitiji, “Nlikulupusye mwachinsyene mu uŵelesi wangalumbana wu.”
And, with many different words, bare he frail witness, and went on exhorting them saying—Be saved from this perverse generation!
41 Ŵandu ŵajinji ŵajitichisye maloŵe gakwe ni kubatiswa. Pa lyuŵa lyo ŵandu elufu tatu ŵajonjesyeche.
They, therefore, who welcomed his word, were immersed; 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 went on to give constant attention—unto the teaching of the apostles, and unto the fellowship, unto the breaking of bread, and unto the prayers.
43 Yakusimonjeka ni imanyisyo yejinji yatendekwe ni achinduna ŵala ni jwalijose ŵakamwilwe ni woga.
And there came on every soul, fear, and, many wonders and signs, through means of the apostles, were coming to pass.
44 Ŵakukulupilila wose ŵatemi pamo ni iŵakwete yose ŵagaŵene.
And, all who believed, with one accord, began to hold all things common;
45 Ni ŵasumisye indu ni ipanje yao ni kugaŵilana mbiya mundu jwalijose yaikuti pakunsoŵa.
and, their possessions and goods, were they selling and distributing them unto all, in so far as anyone had need.
46 Lyuŵa ni lyuŵa ŵachinganganaga pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu. Ŵalyaga chakulya pamo mmajumba gao kwa kusangalala ni kwa ntima weswela.
And, daily giving attendance with one intent in the temple and, at home, breaking bread, they were partaking of food with exultation 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 favour with all the people. And, the Lord, was adding them who were being saved, daily, together.
