< Masengo 2 >
1 Palyaiche lyuŵa lya Pentekosite ŵakukulupilila wose ŵasongangene peuto pamo.
When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in the same place.
2 Chisisimuchile, lyapikaniche liloŵe mpela mbungo ja machili kutyochela kwinani ni lyagumbele mu nyuumba mose muŵatemi ŵandu.
Suddenly there came from heaven a sound like the rush of a violent 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.
There appeared to them tongues like fire that were distributed, and they sat upon each one of them.
4 Wose ŵagumbele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni ŵatandite kuŵecheta iŵecheto ineine mpela Mbumu iŵatite pakwakombolesya.
They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other languages, as the Spirit gave them to speak.
5 Ku Yelusalemu kula kwaliji ni Ŵayahudi, ŵandu ŵakwajitichisya Akunnungu ŵaŵakopochele mu misi jinejine pa chilambo pano.
Now there were Jews who were living in Jerusalem, godly 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.
When this sound was heard, the multitude came together and was confused because everyone heard them speaking in his own language.
7 Ni wose ŵasimosile akuno achitiji, “Ana wose utukwapilikana achiŵechetaga yelei nganaŵa ŵandu ŵa ku Galilaya?
They were amazed and marveled; they said, “Really, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?
8 Ana iŵele uli ŵanyaŵa pakuŵecheta uweji tukupilikana jwalijose mchiŵecheto chetu twachinsyene?
Why is it that we are hearing them, each 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 who live in Mesopotamia, in Judea and Cappadocia, in 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, in Egypt and the parts of Libya toward Cyrene, and visitors from Rome,
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.”
Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians, we hear them telling in our languages about the mighty works of God.”
12 Wose ŵasimosile ni kukangana akuno achiusyanaga kuti, “Chelechi malumbo gakwe chichi?”
They were all amazed and perplexed; they said to one another, “What does this mean?”
13 Nambo ŵane ŵanyelwisye achitiji, “Ŵandu ŵa akolelwe.”
But others mocked and 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 stood with the eleven, raised his voice, and said to them, “Men of Judea and all of you who live at Jerusalem, let this be known to you; pay attention to my words.
15 Ŵandu ŵa nganakolelwa mpela inkuti pakuganisya, pakuŵa sambano jino jili saa tatu ja kundaŵi.
For these people are not drunk as you assume, for it is only 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 will be in the last days,' God says, 'I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and your daughters will prophesy, 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.
Also on my servants and my female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they will prophesy.
19 Chinjitendekanya yakusimonjeka kwiunde, ni imanyisyo pa chilambo, kuchiwe ni miasi ni mooto ni lyosi lyakutopela,
I will show wonders in the sky above and signs on the earth below, blood, 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 to darkness and the moon to blood, before the great and remarkable day of the Lord comes.
21 Pelepo, jwalijose juchapopele kwa liina lya Ambuje chakulupuswe.’
It will be that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will 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 of Nazareth, a man accredited to you by God by the mighty deeds, the wonders, and the signs which God did through him in your midst, as you 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 was handed over by God's predetermined plan and foreknowledge; and you, by the hand of lawless men, put him to death by nailing him to a cross.
24 Nambo Akunnungu ŵansyusisye, ni ŵankulupwisye mu ipwetesi ya chiwa pakuŵa nginikomboleka kuti chiwa chaugalile.
But God raised him up, freeing him from the pains of death, because it was impossible for him to 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 says about him, 'I saw the Lord always before my face, for he is beside my right hand so 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 was glad and my tongue rejoiced. Also, my flesh will live in certain hope.
27 pakuŵa, alakwe Akunnungu nganjileka mbumu jangu kwiuto kwa ŵandu ŵawile, natamuno kwitichisya Jwanswela jwenu asigale ali awile mwilembe. (Hadēs )
For you will not abandon my soul to Hades, neither will you allow your Holy One to see decay. (Hadēs )
28 Muunosisye matala ga umi, chimung'umbasye kusengwa kwa upagwe wenu!’
You revealed to me the ways of life; you will make me full of gladness with your face.'
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.
Brothers, I can speak to you confidently about the patriarch David, he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with 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.
Therefore, he was a prophet and knew that God had sworn with an oath to him, that he would set one of the fruit of his body 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 )
He saw what was to happen in the future and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, 'He was neither abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see decay.' (Hadēs )
32 Nipele, Akunnungu ni ŵaŵansyusisye Che Yesu jo ni uweji wose tuli ŵa umboni wa indu yo.
This Jesus—God raised him up, of which 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.
Therefore having been exalted to the right hand of God and having received the promised Holy Spirit from the Father, he has poured out what you 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 to the heaven, but he says, 'The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,
35 mpaka pachinaatende ŵammagongo ŵenu kuŵa chitengu cha kuŵichila makongolo genu.’”
until I make your enemies the stool for your feet.”'
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 certainly know that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.”
37 Ni ŵandu paŵapilikene yeleyo, yaapeteche mmitima ni ŵausisye Che Petulo ni achinduna ŵane ŵala kuti, “Achalongo achinjetu, ana tutende chichi?”
Now when they heard this, they were pierced in their hearts, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall 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.
Then Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized, each of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you 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 far off, as many people as the Lord our God will call.”
40 Kwa maloŵe gamajinji che Petulo ŵaajamwiche ŵandu ni kwachondelela achitiji, “Nlikulupusye mwachinsyene mu uŵelesi wangalumbana wu.”
With many other words he testified and urged them; he said, “Save yourselves from this wicked generation.”
41 Ŵandu ŵajinji ŵajitichisye maloŵe gakwe ni kubatiswa. Pa lyuŵa lyo ŵandu elufu tatu ŵajonjesyeche.
Then they received his word and were baptized, and there were added in 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.
They continued in the apostles' teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread and in prayers.
43 Yakusimonjeka ni imanyisyo yejinji yatendekwe ni achinduna ŵala ni jwalijose ŵakamwilwe ni woga.
Fear came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.
44 Ŵakukulupilila wose ŵatemi pamo ni iŵakwete yose ŵagaŵene.
All who believed were together and had all things in common,
45 Ni ŵasumisye indu ni ipanje yao ni kugaŵilana mbiya mundu jwalijose yaikuti pakunsoŵa.
and they sold their property and possessions and distributed them to all, according to the needs anyone had.
46 Lyuŵa ni lyuŵa ŵachinganganaga pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu. Ŵalyaga chakulya pamo mmajumba gao kwa kusangalala ni kwa ntima weswela.
So day after day they continued with one purpose in the temple, and they broke bread in homes, and they shared food with glad and humble hearts,
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 every day the Lord added to their number those who were being saved.
