Masengo 25
1 Moŵa gatatu pakumala che Festo kwinjila ku Kaisalia kugatanda masengo gakwe, ŵakwesile kwaula ku Yelusalemu.
When Festus was come into the province after thre dayes he ascended fro Cesarea vnto Ierusalem.
2 Kweleko achakulu ŵambopesi pamo ni ilongola ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵansalile che Festo magambo ga che Paolo.
Then enformed him the hye prestes and the chefe of the Iewes of Paul. And they besought him
3 Ŵachondelele che Festo kuti ŵasalalisye ntima kwa kwaikanawo che Paolo ku Yelusalemu kuti ŵajuŵilile petala ni kwaulaga.
and desired faveour agaynst him that he wold sende for him to Ierusalem: and layde awayte for him in the waye to kill him.
4 Nambo che Festo ŵaajanjile, “Che Paolo ali mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa ku Kaisalia ni nansyene chinyaule kukoko pangakaŵa.
Festus answered that Paul shuld be kept at Cesarea: but that he him selfe wold shortly departe thither.
5 Mwaleche ilongola ŵenu ajaulangane pamo ni une kweleko akaaŵechetele naga atesile yangalumbana.”
Let the therfore (sayd he) which amoge you are able to do it come doune with vs and accuse him if ther be eny faute in the man.
6 Che Festo ŵatemi nawo kwa moŵa nane pane likumi, nipele ŵaujile ku Kaisalia. Malaŵi jakwe ŵajawile ni kutama pa chitengu cha ulamusi, ŵalamwile kuti ŵaichenawo che Paolo.
When he had taried there moare then ten dayes he departed vnto Cesarea and the nexte daye sate doune in the iudgemet seate and commaunded Paul to be brought.
7 Paŵaiche che Paolo, Ŵayahudi ŵaŵakopochele ku Yelusalemu ŵansyungwile ni kutanda kwaŵechetela yejinji yakutopa ni nganakombolanga kuisalichisya.
When he was come the Iewes which were come fro Ierusalem came aboute him and layde many and greveous complayntes agaynst Paul which they coulde not prove
8 Nkulichenjela, che Paolo ŵatite, “Uneji nganimbanganya magambo gagaligose gankati malajisyo ga Ŵayahudi pane nkati Nyuumba ja Akunnungu natamuno kwa Mwenye jwa ku Loma.”
as longe as he answered for him selfe that he had nether agaynst the lawe of the Iewes nether agaynst the temple nor yet agaynst Cesar offended eny thinge at all.
9 Nambo che Festo ŵasachile kulinonyelesya kwa Ŵayahudi ni ŵambusisye che Paolo, “Ana nkusaka kwaula ku Yelusalemu nkalamulikwe kweleko yankati magambo ga paujo pangu?”
Festus willinge to do the Iewes a pleasure answered Paul and sayde: wilt thou goo to Ierusalem and there be iudged of these thinges before me?
10 Nambo che Paolo ŵatite, “Ngwima paujo pa nkungulu wa Mwenye jwa ku Loma, pelepa ni panguŵajilwa kulamulikwa. Alakwe mwasyene nkumanyilila uchenene, uneji nganinaapanganichisya Ŵayahudi changalumbana chachili chose.
Then sayd Paul: I stonde at Cesars iudgemet seate where I ought to be iudged. To ye Iewes have I no harme done as thou verely well knowest.
11 Nipele iŵaga ngwete magambo pane ndesile yangalumbana yakuŵajilwa kuulajikwa, ngangukana kuwa. Nambo iŵaga ngapagwa usyene wa magambo gakumechetela une ŵandu ŵa, ngapagwa mundu juchakombole kuundaga mmakono mwa ŵanyawo. Ngusaka mumbeleche kwa Mwenye jwa ku Loma.”
If I have hurte them or comitted eny thinge worthy of deeth I refuse not to dye. If none of these thinges are where of they accuse me no man owght to delyver me to them. I appeale vnto Cesar.
12 Nipele che Festo paŵamasile kuŵecheta ni ŵandu ŵa nkungulu ŵansalile che Paolo, “Nkusaka kunjausya kwa Mwenye jwa ku Loma, ayaga, chinjaule kwa Mwenye jwa ku Loma.”
Then spake Festus with deliberacion and answered. Thou hast appealed vnto Cesar: vnto Cesar shalt thou goo.
13 Gali gapite moŵa gampepe, mwenye che Agilipa ni che Belinike nlumbugwe, ŵaiche ku Kaisalia kukwakomasya che Festo.
After a certayne dayes kinge Agrippa and Bernice came vnto Cesarea to salute Festus.
14 Ni ŵatemi kweleko moŵa gampepe ni che Festo nombe ŵansalile mwenye ngani ja magambo ga che Paolo achitiji, “Kwana mundu jumo pelepa juŵannesile che Felikisi ali mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa.
And when they had bene there a good ceason Festus rehersed Paules cause vnto ye kynge sayinge: ther is a certayne man left in preson of Felix
15 Panajawile ku Yelusalemu achakulu ŵambopesi pamo ni achachekulu ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵambechetele mundu jo ni kuunjondelela kuti naalamule ni kwajamuka.
about whom when I came to Ierusalem the hye prestes and elders of the Iewes enformed me and desyred to have iudgement agaynst him.
16 Nambo uneji naasalile kuti Ŵaloma nganakola masyoŵelo go ga kuntyosya mundu alamulikwe akanaŵe kuchingangana ni ŵandu ŵakumbechetela meeso ni meeso, ni kwapa lipesa lya kulichenjela kwa iŵambechetele yo.
To whom I answered: It is not the maner of the Romayns to delyver eny man that he shuld perisshe before that he which is accused have the accusars before him and have licence to answer for him selfe concerninge ye cryme layde agaynst him:
17 Nipele, paŵasongangene apano, nganingaŵa, malaŵi jakwe natemi pachitengu changu cha ulamusi ni kulajisya annyichenawo mundu jo.
whe they were come hidder wt out delaye on the morowe I sate to geve iudgement and comaunded ye ma to be brought forthe.
18 Ŵakumbechetela ŵakwe paŵajimi, nganakoposya magambo ga yangalumbana mpela inaganisyaga.
Agaynst who when ye accusers stode vp they brought none accusacion of soche thinges as I supposed:
19 Nambo ŵakanilanaga ine pe yankati dini jao ni yankati mundu jumo jwakuŵilanjikwa Che Yesu jwaŵawile nambo che Paolo akulimbila kuti ali ŵajumi.
but had certayne questions agaynst him of their awne supersticion and of one Iesus which was ded: whom Paul affirmed to be alyve.
20 Nganinaimanyilila chakutenda nkati magambo ga. Nipele, nambusisye che Paolo iŵaga chasache kwaula ku Yelusalemu kukulamulikwa kweleko magambo ga.
And be cause I douted of soche maner questions I axed him whyther he wolde goo to Ierusalem and there be iudged of these matters.
21 Nambo che Paolo ŵasachile kulamulikwa ni Mwenye jwa ku Loma, nalamwile kuti angose mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa mpaka pachinaapeleche kwa Mwenye jwa ku Loma.”
Then when Paul had appealed to be kept vnto the knowledge of Cesar I commaunded him to be kept tyll I myght sende him to Cesar.
22 Che Agilipa ŵane juŵaliji mwenye jwa liuto liine ŵansalile che Festo, “None ngusaka kumpilikanila nansyene mundu jo.” Che Festo ŵatite, “Chimumpikanile malaŵi.”
Agrippa sayd vnto Festus: I wolde also heare ye man my selfe. To morowe (sayde he) thou shalt heare him.
23 Malaŵi jakwe che Agilipa ni che Belinike ŵaiche ali nkusangalala pa nkungulu ali alongene ni achakulu ŵa ŵangondo ni achakulu ŵa musi. Che Festo ŵalamwile kuti ŵaichenawo che Paolo.
And on ye morowe when Agrippa was come and Bernice with greate pompe and were entred into the counsell housse with the captaynes and chefe men of the cite at Festus commaundement Paul was brought forth.
24 Che Festo ŵatite, “Mwenye che Agilipa ni ŵanawose ŵantemi apano pamo ni uweji! Ŵayahudi wose ŵa pelepa ni ŵa ku Yelusalemu akummechetela mundu ju kukwangu ni akusaka aulajikwe.
And Festus sayde: kynge Agrippa and all men which are heare present wt vs: ye se this man about whom all the multitude of the Iewes have bene with me both at Ierusalem and also here cryinge that he ought not to lyve eny lenger.
25 Nambo uneji nganinagawona magambo gagaligose gakwaŵajila kuulajikwa. Ni pakuŵa che Paolo nsyene ŵasachile alamulikwe ni Mwenye jwa ku Loma, noneji najitichisye kunjausya ku Loma.
Yet founde I nothinge worthy of deeth that he had comitted. Neverthelesse seinge that he hath appealed to Cesar I have determined to sende him.
26 Kwa uneji nganingola usyene wankati ŵelewo wakunlembela Mwenye jwa ku Loma. Kwa ligongo lyo nannyichenawo paujo penu nnopennope kukwenu achimwene mwenye che Agilipa, mwamalaga kumbusyausya mbate chakulemba.
Of whom I have no certayne thinge to wryte vnto my lorde. Wherfore I have brought him vnto you and specially vnto the kynge Agrippa that after examinacion had I myght have sumwhat to wryte.
27 Pakuŵa nguwona chiiŵe yakusekasya kwajauchisya jwantawe pangasala uchenene yakwaŵechetela yo.”
For me thynketh it vnreasonable for to sende a presoner and not to shewe the causes which are layde agaynst him.
