Masengo 20
1 Pawamasile utinda ku Efeso, che Paolo ŵaaŵilasile ŵakwakuya ŵala pamo, ni kwalimbisya ntima. Ni ŵaalanjile ni kutanda ulendo wa ku Makedonia.
And after the tumult had subsided, Paul called the disciples to him, and comforted them, and kissed them, and departed, and went into Macedonia.
2 Ni ŵapite mu ilambo ila ni kwalimbisya ntima kwa maloŵe gamajinji ŵakukulupilila ŵa misi jo. Nipele ŵaiche ku Ugiliki,
And when he had travelled over those regions, and had comforted them with many discourses, he proceeded to the country of 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 he was there three months. And the Jews formed a plot against him, when he was about to go to Syria: and he contemplated returning to 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 departed with him, as far as Asia, Sopater of the city Berea, and Aristarchus and Secundus who were of Thessalonica, and Gaius who was of the city of Derbe, and Timothy of Lystra, and of Asia Tychicus and Trophimus.
5 Ŵandu wo ŵatulongolele ni ŵaliji nkutulolela ku Tuloa kula.
these proceeded on before us, and waited 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 departed from Philippi, a city of the Macedonians, after the days of unleavened bread; and proceeded by water and arrived at Troas in five days, and remained there 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 we assembled to break the eucharist, Paul discoursed with them, because he was to depart the next day; and he continued his discourse till midnight.
8 Mu chuumba cha mwinani kutwasongangene ko kwaliji ni ibatali yejinji ichikolelaga.
And there were many lamps burning in the chamber where we 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 young man named Eutychus was sitting in a window and listening. And while Paul prolonged his discourse, he sunk into a deep sleep; and, in his sleep, he fell from the third loft, and was taken up as dead.
10 Nambo che Paolo ŵatulwiche paasi ni ŵatindiŵele ni kwakumbata ni kuti, “Kasinlilanga pakuŵa ali jwanjumi.”
And Paul went down, and bent over him and embraced him, and said: Be not agitated, for his soul is 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, he broke the bread and tasted it, and discoursed until the morning dawned. And then he departed to go by land.
12 Ŵandu ŵala ŵanjigele nchanda jula kumangwao ali jwanjumi, nipele mitima jao jatulele.
And they brought the young man alive, and rejoiced over him greatly.
13 Uweji twalongolele ku Aso ni ngalaŵa jekulungwa, kweleko twatiji twajigale che Paolo. Yeleyo ni yatite pakulajisya nnigwa wao kuti aiche kweleko wapasi.
And we went on board the ship, and sailed to the port of Thesos; because, there we were to take in Paul: for so had he bidden us, when he proceeded on by land.
14 Nipele che Paolo ŵatusimene ku Aso kula, ni twakwesile mu ngalaŵa ni twajawile ku Mitulene.
And when we had received him at Thesos, we took him on board ship and proceeded to Mitylene.
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 from there, the next day, we sailed over against the island Chios; and again, the next day we arrived at Samos, and stopped at Trogyllium; and on the following day we arrived at 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 with himself to pass by Ephesus, lest he should be delayed there; because he hasted on, if possible, to keep the day of pentecost in Jerusalem.
17 Che Paolo paŵaliji ku Mileto ŵalajisye utenga wa kwaŵilanga achachekulu ŵa mipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ja ku Efeso kuti achingangane.
And from Miletus, he sent and called the Elders of the church at Ephesus.
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 had come to him, he said to them: Ye yourselves know, how, at all times, since the first day that I entered Asia, I have been with you;
19 Nkumanyililanga indite pakwatumichila Ambuje nkulitulusya kose ni misosi ni masausyo gagambatile kwaligongo lya malindi ga Ŵayahudi ŵampepe.
laboring for God, in great humility, and with tears, amid the trials which beset me from the plottings of Jews:
20 Nkumanyililanga kuti uneji nganinyogopa namose kanandi kunlalichila pelanga ni mmajumba genu ni kunjiganya chakunkamuchisya chachili chose.
and I shunned not that which was advantageous to your souls, that I might preach to you, and teach in the streets and in houses,
21 Naajamwiche kwakalipa nnope Ŵayahudi ni Ŵagiliki aleche sambi syao ni kwaujilila Akunnungu ni kunkulupilila Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu.
while I testified to Jews and to Gentiles, as to repentance towards God and faith in our Lord Jesus Messiah.
22 Sano, uneji ngumpilikanichisya Mbumu jwa Akunnungu, ngwaula ku Yelusalemu pangaimanyilila chachili chose chachichiisimane kweleko.
And now I am bound in spirit, and I go to Jerusalem; and I know not what will befall me there;
23 Nguchimanyilila chindu chimo kuti mmusi wauliwose Mbumu jwa Akunnungu akusalila kuti kutaŵikwa ni masausyo gakunindilila.
except that the Holy Spirit in every city, testifieth to me and saith: Bonds and afflictions 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.
But my life is accounted by me as nothing, so that I may but finish my course, and the ministration which I have received from our Lord Jesus, to bear testimony to 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, I know that ye will see my face no more, all of you among whom I have travelled and preached the kingdom of God.
26 Nipele lelo jino ngunsalila kuti yakopochelaga jumo jwenu kujonasika, uneji nganingola magambo.
I therefore protest to you, this day, that I am pure from the blood of you all.
27 Pakuŵa nganileka kunlalichila yanayose yakusaka kuipanganya Akunnungu.
For I have not shunned to acquaint you with all the will 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 Spirit hath established you bishops; that ye feed the church of God, which he hath acquired by his blood.
29 Nguimanyilila uchenene kuti pingutyoka masogo gakalipa chiganjimuchile ni ngagakola chanasa kwa mpingo wo.
For I know, that after I am gone, fierce wolves will come in among you, and will have no mercy on the flock.
30 Ni sooni mwa mwachinsyene chakopochele ŵandu ŵachaŵechete ya unami kwasoyasya ŵakulijiganya ni kwatenda ŵaakuye ŵanyawo.
And also, from among yourselves, there will rise up men speaking perverse things, that they may turn away the disciples to go after them.
31 Nipele, nlilolechesye nchikumbuchilaga kuti kwa moŵa ga yaka itatu chilo ni muusi, nganileka kunjamuka kila jumo mwa ŵanyamwe kwa misosi.
Therefore be ye vigilant; and remember, that for three years I ceased not to admonish each one of you, by day and by night, with tears.
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 I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all the saints.
33 Uneji nganisaka madini ga feza pane sahabu pane iwalo ya mundu jwalijose.
Silver, or gold, or garments, I have not coveted.
34 Mwachinsyene nkumanyililanga kuti napanganisye masengo ni makono gangu nansyene kuti mbate yaikunsoŵa ni yaikwasoŵa achinjangu nombewo.
And ye yourselves, know, that these hands ministered to my wants, and to them that 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.’”
And I have showed you all things; that thus it is a duty to labor, and to care for the infirm, and to remember the words of our Lord Jesus; for he hath said, That he is more blessed who giveth, than he who receiveth.
36 Che Paolo paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo ŵatindiŵele pamo ni ŵanyawo wose ni kwapopela Akunnungu.
And when he had said these things, he fell on his knees and prayed, and all the people with him.
37 Wose ŵaliji nkulilanga ni ŵaalanjile che Paolo kwakwakumbata ni kwalosya unonyelo wekulungwa.
And there was great weeping among them all. And they embraced him, and kissed him.
38 Chindu chichatesile asupuche nnope chaliji liloŵe liŵaŵechete che Paolo paŵatite, “Ngamuuwona sooni.” Nipele ŵaapechesye mpaka mu ngalaŵa jekulungwa.
And they had the most anguish, because of the word he uttered, that they would see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship.
