1 Lyuŵa limo, che Petulo ni che Yohana ŵaliji nkwaula pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu katema ka kupopela, saa tisa ja muusi.
Now Kipha and Yukhanan were going up into the temple at the hour of prayer, at three in the afternoon.
2 Katema ko ŵandu ŵanjigalaga mundu jumo jwangajenda chipagwile. Ŵandu wo ŵambikaga mundu jo lyuŵa ni lyuŵa pannango wa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu waukuŵilanjikwa “Nnango Wakusalala,” kuti aŵende chachilichose kwa ŵaŵajinjilaga pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu.
A certain man who was lame from his mother's womb was being carried, whom they put daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask gifts for the needy of those who entered into the temple.
3 Paŵaweni che Petulo ni che Yohana achisakaga kwinjila pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, ŵaŵendile kuti ŵaape chachilichose.
Seeing Kipha and Yukhanan about to go into the temple, he asked to receive gifts for the needy.
4 Che Petulo ni che Yohana ŵankolondolele, nombe che Petulo wo ŵansalile, “Ntulolechesye uwe.”
Kipha, fastening his eyes on him, with Yukhanan, said, "Look at us."
5 Nombejo ŵaalolechesye achilolelaga kuti chapochele chindu kutyochela kwa ŵanyawo.
He listened to them, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Nambo che Petulo ŵansalile, “Nganingola mbiya namuno sahabu, nambo chingwete cho chinampe. Kwa ulamusi u Che Yesu Kilisito jwa ku Nasaleti, njime njende.”
But Kipha said, "Silver and gold have I none, but what I have, that I give you. In the name of Yeshua Meshikha the Natsraya, get up and walk."
7 Nipele ŵankamwile nkono wa kundyo ni kunjimika. Papopo makongolo ni malungo gakwe galimbile.
He took him by the right hand, and raised him up. Immediately his feet and his ankle bones received strength.
8 Ŵagulwiche ni kwima ni kutanda kwenda. Ni ŵajinjile pamo nawo pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, achendaga ni gulukaguluka akuno achalapaga Akunnungu.
Leaping up, he stood, and began to walk. He entered with them into the temple, walking, leaping, and praising God.
9 Ŵandu wose paŵammweni achendaga ni kwalapa Akunnungu,
All the people saw him walking and praising God.
10 ŵaamanyilile kuti ali jwejula juŵatamaga pa Nnango Wakusalala wa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ni kuŵendaŵenda, ŵatojime ni kusimonga kwa chele chichasimene.
They recognized him, that it was he who used to sit begging for gifts for the needy at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. They were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
11 Jwejula mundu paŵaliji nkulongana ni che Petulo ni che Yohana, ŵandu wose ŵasimosile nnope ni kutanda kuutuchila pa nsana wauli pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu waukuŵilanjikwa, “Nsana u che Selemani.”
And as he held on to Kipha and Yukhanan, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Shelemun's, greatly wondering.
12 Nipele, che Petulo paŵaiweni yeleyi ŵaasalile, “Ŵanyamwe Ŵaisilaeli, ana ligongo lyachi nkuchisimonga chachikopochele chi? Ana ligongo chi nkutulolechesya mpela uweji ni utuntesile mundu ju ajende kwa machili getu pane nkuganisya kuti uweji tuli ŵambone paujo pa Akunnungu?
When Kipha saw it, he responded to the people, "You men of Israyel, why are you amazed at this? Why do you fasten your eyes on us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made him walk?
13 Akunnungu ŵa achatati ŵetu che Iblahimu ni che Isaka ni che Yakobo, ŵaakusisye Che Yesu katumetume jwao. Nambo ŵanyamwe mwankamwile kuti aulajikwe ni ŵanyamwe mwankanile paujo pa che Pilato, nachiŵamuno che Pilato ŵasachile kungopola.
The God of Avraham, Iskhaq, and Yaquv, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Servant Yeshua, whom you delivered up, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.
14 Jwelejo ŵaliji Jwanswela ni jwambone, nambo ŵanyamwe mwankanile, mwaŵendile che Pilato alechelelwe mundu jwine juŵaliji jwakuulaga.
But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a man who was a murderer to be granted to you,
15 Nipele, mwambuleje jwelejo juŵaliji ndandililo ja umi. Nambo Akunnungu ŵansyusisye ni uweji tuli ŵa umboni ŵa yeleyo iyakopochele.
and killed the Originator of life, whom God raised from the dead, to which we are witnesses.
16 Kwa litala lya kulikulupilila liina li Che Yesu, liina li Che Yesu limpele machili mundu ju junkummona ni kummanyilila. Kwa kulikulupilila liina li Che Yesu kuntesile mundu ju alame mpela inkuti pakumbona.
By faith in his name, his name has made this man strong, whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which is through him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
17 “Sambano achalongo achinjangu, naimanyi kuti ŵanyamwe ni achakulu ŵenu mwatesile yelei kwaligongo lya ungamanyilila wenu.
"Now, brothers, I know that you did this in ignorance, as did also your rulers.
18 Nambo kwanti yeleyo Akunnungu ŵamalichisye yeila yaisasile kalakala kwa kang'wa sya ŵakulondola wose kuti Kilisito chalagaswe.
But the things which God announced by the mouth of all his prophets, that the Meshikha should suffer, he thus fulfilled.
19 Nipele, nleche sambi syenu, mwaujilile Akunnungu kuti annechelesye sambi syenu.
"Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, so that there may come times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord,
20 Mwatendaga yeleyo chinjonjechekwe machili ga Mbumu kutyochela kwa Ambuje, nombewo chantume Che Yesu Kilisito aŵe Chiwombosyo kwa ligongo lyenu.
and that he may send Yeshua, the Meshikha who was ordained for you before,
21 Ikusachilwa ŵelewo asigale kwinani ko mpaka pichikaiche katema ka Akunnungu patatende indu yose kuŵa yasambano, mpela iŵatite pakusala kalakala kwa kang'wa sya ŵakulondola ŵakwe ŵaswela. (aiōn g165)
whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God spoke long ago by the mouth of his holy prophets. (aiōn g165)
22 Pakuŵa che Musa ŵatite, ‘Ambuje Akunnungu ŵenu channyichisye jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu mpela uneji, jwelejo chakopochele pasikati jenu ni ŵanyamwe nkusachilwa kumpilikanichisya yose ichansalile.
For Mushe indeed said to the fathers, 'The Lord your God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me. You shall listen to him in all things whatever he says to you.
23 Ni mundu jwalijose jwangakumpilikanila jwakulondola jo chaŵichikwe pajika kutyochela mu ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu ni kuulajikwa.’
It will be, that every soul that will not listen to that prophet will be utterly destroyed from among the people.'
24 Elo, ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu wose, chitandile che Samweli ni ŵeŵala ŵaŵakuiye, ŵalalichile ngani sya yelei yaikukopochela mmoŵa gano.
Yes, and all the prophets from Shemuyel and those who followed after, as many as have spoken, they also told of these days.
25 Chilanga cha Akunnungu chatesile kwa litala lya ŵakulondola chili kwa ligongo lyenu ni ŵanyamwe ndi mu gele malangano gaatesile Akunnungu ni achambuje ŵenu, mpela iŵatite pakwasalila che Iblahimu kuti, ‘Kwa litala lya uŵelesi wenu ŵandu wose ŵa pachilambo chapegwe upile.’
You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Avraham, 'And through your offspring all the families of the earth will be blessed.'
26 Nipele, Akunnungu ŵansyusisye katumetume jwao ni kundanda, ŵantumile kukwenu kuti ampe upile ŵanyamwe kwa kuntenda jwalijose alekangane ni yangalumbana yakwe.”
God, having raised up his Servant, sent him to you first, to bless you, in turning away everyone of you from your wickedness."
