Masengo 20
1 Pawamasile utinda ku Efeso, che Paolo ŵaaŵilasile ŵakwakuya ŵala pamo, ni kwalimbisya ntima. Ni ŵaalanjile ni kutanda ulendo wa ku Makedonia.
THEN after the tumult was quieted, Paul called to him the disciples, and taking his leave, departed to go into Macedonia.
2 Ni ŵapite mu ilambo ila ni kwalimbisya ntima kwa maloŵe gamajinji ŵakukulupilila ŵa misi jo. Nipele ŵaiche ku Ugiliki,
And passing through those parts, and having exhorted them with much discourse, he went into Greece.
3 kweleko ŵatemi miesi jitatu. Paŵaliji nkuliŵika chile kwa ulendo wa ku Silia kwa litala lya mmeesi, ŵaimanyi kuti Ŵayahudi ŵatamilile ntemela wangalimate, nipele ŵaamwiwe kuuja achipitilaga ku Makedonia.
And after three months stay, as the Jews were lying in wait for him, when he was just embarking for Syria, he determined to return through Macedonia.
4 Che Sopatula mwana ju che Piho mundu jwa ku Belea ŵalongene ni che Paolo pamo ni che Alisitako ni che Sekundo jwa ku Sesalonike, che Gayo jwa ku Debe ni che Timoseo, che Tukiko ni che Tilofimo jwa ku Asia.
And there accompanied him as far as Asia, Sopater a Berean; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and Tychicus and Trophimus, Asiatics.
5 Ŵandu wo ŵatulongolele ni ŵaliji nkutulolela ku Tuloa kula.
These going before tarried for us at Troas.
6 Pagapite moŵa ga mikate jangatajikwa amila, uweji twakwesile ngalaŵa kutyochela ku Filipi ni pagamasile moŵa nsano, twaiche ku Tuloa kula. Ni kweleko twatemi chijuma chimo.
And we sailed from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came to them to Troas after five days; where we stayed seven days.
7 Lyuŵa lyaandanda lya chijuma twachingangene kuti tulye pamo. Ni che Paolo pakuŵa ŵasachile kuti atyoche malaŵi jakwe, ŵakungulwiche ni ŵandu, ni sooni ŵajendelechele kukunguluka ni ŵandu wo mpaka chilo nnope.
And on the first day of the week, when the disciples were assembled to break bread, Paul preached unto them (ready to depart on the morrow), and extended his discourse until midnight.
8 Mu chuumba cha mwinani kutwasongangene ko kwaliji ni ibatali yejinji ichikolelaga.
Now there were many lamps in the upper room, where they were assembled.
9 Ni jwapali nchanda liina lyakwe che Eutiko juŵatemi pedilisha. Che Paolo paŵajendelechelaga kukunguluka, che Eutiko ŵatandite kugwesela kanandikanandi. Kumbesi ŵagonile ni ŵagwile paasi kutyochela chuumba chaatatu cha mwinani. Ni paŵannyakwile ŵaliji ŵamale kuwa.
And a certain youth named Eutytchus, who sat in the window, fell into a profound sleep: as Paul discoursed much longer than usual, quite overpowered with sleep, he fell down from a third story, and was taken up dead.
10 Nambo che Paolo ŵatulwiche paasi ni ŵatindiŵele ni kwakumbata ni kuti, “Kasinlilanga pakuŵa ali jwanjumi.”
But Paul came down, and fell upon him, and taking him in his arms, said, Trouble not yourselves, for his life is yet in him.
11 Ni ŵakwesile sooni ku chuumba cha mwinani kula ŵagaŵenye nkate ni ŵalile. Ŵajendelechele kulalichila mpaka kundaŵi pe nipele ŵatyosile.
And when he had gone up, and broken bread, and eaten, and conversed a long time, even to the break of day, he then departed.
12 Ŵandu ŵala ŵanjigele nchanda jula kumangwao ali jwanjumi, nipele mitima jao jatulele.
And they brought the lad alive, and were comforted exceedingly.
13 Uweji twalongolele ku Aso ni ngalaŵa jekulungwa, kweleko twatiji twajigale che Paolo. Yeleyo ni yatite pakulajisya nnigwa wao kuti aiche kweleko wapasi.
Then we going before to the ship, sailed for Assos, intending there to take in Paul: for so he had ordered, meaning himself to walk thither.
14 Nipele che Paolo ŵatusimene ku Aso kula, ni twakwesile mu ngalaŵa ni twajawile ku Mitulene.
And when he met us at Assos, we took him up, and came to Mytelene.
15 Kutyochela kweleko twajendelechele ni ulendo ni malaŵi jakwe twaiche ku Kio. Pa lyuŵa lyaaŵili twapelengenye ku Samo ni malaŵi jakwe twaiche ku Mileto.
And sailing from thence, on the following day we advanced over against Chios; and the next day we touched at Samos, and staying at Trogyllium, the day following we came to Miletus.
16 Pakuŵa che Paolo ŵasachile kwendelechela ni ulendo wao ni ngalaŵa pangasepuchila ku Efeso kuti akasakaŵa nnope ku Asia ko. Ŵachelengaga nningwa wao kuti yakombolekaga aiche ku Yelusalemu kwaligongo lya lyuŵa lya Pentekosite.
For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, that he might not spend the time in Asia: for he hastened on, if it was possible for him, to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.
17 Che Paolo paŵaliji ku Mileto ŵalajisye utenga wa kwaŵilanga achachekulu ŵa mipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ja ku Efeso kuti achingangane.
So he sent to Ephesus from Miletus, and called the presbyters of the church to attend him.
18 Achachekulu ŵala paŵaiche, che Paolo ŵaasalile, “Mwachinsyene nkumanyililanga indite pakutama ni ŵanyamwe moŵa gose chitandile lyuŵa lyaandanda lila panaiche pachilambo cha ku Asia.
And when they were come unto him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the very first day in which I entered into Asia, how I have been among you at every season,
19 Nkumanyililanga indite pakwatumichila Ambuje nkulitulusya kose ni misosi ni masausyo gagambatile kwaligongo lya malindi ga Ŵayahudi ŵampepe.
serving the Lord with all humility, and with many tears and trials, which have befallen me through the lying in wait of the Jews:
20 Nkumanyililanga kuti uneji nganinyogopa namose kanandi kunlalichila pelanga ni mmajumba genu ni kunjiganya chakunkamuchisya chachili chose.
and that I have suppressed nothing which could conduce to your profiting; not desisting from preaching to you, and teaching you in public, and from house to house,
21 Naajamwiche kwakalipa nnope Ŵayahudi ni Ŵagiliki aleche sambi syao ni kwaujilila Akunnungu ni kunkulupilila Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu.
repeatedly urging both on Jews and Greeks repentance towards God, and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ.
22 Sano, uneji ngumpilikanichisya Mbumu jwa Akunnungu, ngwaula ku Yelusalemu pangaimanyilila chachili chose chachichiisimane kweleko.
And now behold I am going, bound by the Spirit, unto Jerusalem, not knowing what things shall there befal me:
23 Nguchimanyilila chindu chimo kuti mmusi wauliwose Mbumu jwa Akunnungu akusalila kuti kutaŵikwa ni masausyo gakunindilila.
only this, that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying, that bonds and tribulation await thee.
24 Nambo nganguuŵalanjila umi wangu kuti wana chindu nnope kwa uneji nningwa wangu malichisye unduna wangu ni masengo gaŵambele Ambuje Che Yesu nagapanganye, yaani naalalichile ŵandu Ngani Jambone ja upile wa Akunnungu.
Yet I make no account of any suffering, nor regard my life as of any value to myself, farther than as I may finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord, to testify fully the Gospel of the grace of God.
25 “Mbiite mwa ŵanyamwe wose njilalichilaga Umwenye wa Akunnungu. Nambo sambano ngumanyilila kuti ngapagwa jwalijose mwa ŵanyamwe juchachimona une sooni.
And now behold, I know that ye shall see my face no more, even ye all, among whom I have gone in and out preaching the kingdom of God.
26 Nipele lelo jino ngunsalila kuti yakopochelaga jumo jwenu kujonasika, uneji nganingola magambo.
Wherefore I appeal to you this day as witnesses that I am pure from the blood of all men.
27 Pakuŵa nganileka kunlalichila yanayose yakusaka kuipanganya Akunnungu.
For I have concealed nothing, so as not repeatedly to declare to you the whole counsel of God.
28 Nlilolechesye mwachinsyene, mwagose ŵandu wose ŵampele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu kuti mwalele ŵanyawo. Nkaachunje ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu ŵaŵapatile kwa miasi ja Mwanagwe.
Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost hath made you bishops, to feed as shepherds the church of God, which he purchased with his own blood.
29 Nguimanyilila uchenene kuti pingutyoka masogo gakalipa chiganjimuchile ni ngagakola chanasa kwa mpingo wo.
For this I know, that after my departure there will come among you grievous wolves, not sparing the flock:
30 Ni sooni mwa mwachinsyene chakopochele ŵandu ŵachaŵechete ya unami kwasoyasya ŵakulijiganya ni kwatenda ŵaakuye ŵanyawo.
Yea, from among yourselves shall men arise, speaking perverting doctrines, to draw away disciples after them.
31 Nipele, nlilolechesye nchikumbuchilaga kuti kwa moŵa ga yaka itatu chilo ni muusi, nganileka kunjamuka kila jumo mwa ŵanyamwe kwa misosi.
Therefore watch, remembering that for three years, by night and by day, I have never ceased with tears to admonish every individual.
32 “Nipele sambano, ŵanyamwe ngummikanga mmakono ga Akunnungu ni pa utenga wa upile wao, waukukombola kunkolosya ni kumpa ntuuka pamo ni ŵandu ŵao ŵaŵaswejeswe.
And now, brethren, I commit you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to finish the superstructure, and to give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
33 Uneji nganisaka madini ga feza pane sahabu pane iwalo ya mundu jwalijose.
The silver, or gold, or apparel of no man have I coveted:
34 Mwachinsyene nkumanyililanga kuti napanganisye masengo ni makono gangu nansyene kuti mbate yaikunsoŵa ni yaikwasoŵa achinjangu nombewo.
but ye yourselves know that these hands have by labour furnished necessaries for my own wants, and for those who were with me.
35 Moŵa gose mbanganyisye masengo nti itagu kukwenu, kunnosya kuti tukusachilwa kwakamuchisya ŵakulaga, tuchikumbuchilaga maloŵe ga Ambuje Che Yesu nsyene gagakuti, ‘Mbaya kutyosya kupunda kupochela.’”
In all things I have set you the example, that so labouring hard ye ought to help the infirm, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, because he himself said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”
36 Che Paolo paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo ŵatindiŵele pamo ni ŵanyawo wose ni kwapopela Akunnungu.
And when he had spoken these things, he fell on his knees, and prayed with them all.
37 Wose ŵaliji nkulilanga ni ŵaalanjile che Paolo kwakwakumbata ni kwalosya unonyelo wekulungwa.
And all of them shed floods of tears, and fell upon Paul’s neck, and kissed him again and again,
38 Chindu chichatesile asupuche nnope chaliji liloŵe liŵaŵechete che Paolo paŵatite, “Ngamuuwona sooni.” Nipele ŵaapechesye mpaka mu ngalaŵa jekulungwa.
most peculiarly afflicted at that word which he had spoken, that they should see his face no more: and they accompanied him unto the ship.
