Masengo 9
1 Katema ko che Sauli ŵapundile kwajogoya nnope ŵakwakuya Ambuje kuti chiŵaulaje. Ŵajawile kwa Jwambopesi Jwankulu,
And Saul yet breathing out threatnings and slaughter against the disciples of ye Lord, went vnto the hie Priest,
2 kukuŵenda ŵaape chikalata chakwamanyisya mmajumba ga kupopelela ga ku Damesiki kula kuti, ŵaasimanaga kweleko ŵandu ŵakulikuya Litala lya Ambuje, achalume atamuno achakongwe ŵakamule ni kwaikanawo ku Yelusalemu.
And desired of him letters to Damascus to the Synagogues, that if he found any that were of that way (either men or women) hee might bring them bound vnto Hierusalem.
3 Nambo che Sauli paŵaliji mwitala pachiŵandi ni kwika ku Damesiki, chisisimuchile lulanga kutyochela kwinani lwalanguchisye mbande syose.
Now as he iourneyed, it came to passe that as he was come neere to Damascus, suddenly there shined rounde about him a light from heauen.
4 Ŵagwile paasi ni kupilikana liloŵe lichasalilaga, “Che Sauli, che Sauli! Ligongo chi nkuunagasya?”
And hee fell to the earth, and heard a voyce, saying to him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
5 Che Sauli nombe ŵausisye, “Ambuje, ana ŵaani alakwe?” Ni liloŵe lyo lyajanjile, “Uneji ndili Che Yesu junkunlagasya.
And he sayd, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord sayd, I am Iesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kicke against pricks.
6 Nambo sambano njime, njinjile mmusi ni kweleko chansalile chachikummajila kuchipanganya.”
He then both trembling and astonied, sayd, Lord, what wilt thou that I doe? And the Lord sayd vnto him, Arise and goe into the citie, and it shall be tolde thee what thou shalt doe.
7 Ni ŵandu ŵaŵaliji pamo nawo mu ulendo ŵala, ŵajimi ali jii, ŵapilikanaga liloŵe lyo nambo nganammona mundu.
The men also which iourneyed with him, stood amased, hearing his voyce, but seeing no man.
8 Che Sauli ŵajimi, nambo paŵatatanukwile meeso gakwe nganakombola kuchiwona chachili chose, nipele ŵandu ŵaŵalongene nawo ŵala ŵankamwile nkono ni kunnongosya mpaka ku Damesiki.
And Saul arose from the ground, and opened his eyes, but sawe no man. Then led they him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus,
9 Che Sauli ŵatemi moŵa gatatu pangalola, ni nganalya natamuno kung'wa chachili chose.
Where he was three dayes without sight, and neither ate nor dranke.
10 Ku Damesiki ko jwapali jwakulijiganya ju Che Yesu liina lyakwe che Anania. Ambuje ŵammilasile mu yakwiwona, “Che Anania!” Che Anania ŵajitiche, “Une ndili pelepa Ambuje.”
And there was a certaine disciple at Damascus named Ananias, and to him sayd the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he sayd, Beholde, I am here Lord.
11 Ambuje ŵansalile, “Njimuche njaule ku litala lyalikuŵilanjikwa Litala Lyagoloka, nkauchilichisye mu nyuumba ji che Yuda mundu liina lyakwe che Sauli jwa ku Taso. Ni sambano ali nkupopela,
Then the Lord sayd vnto him, Arise, and goe into the streete which is called Straight, and seeke in the house of Iudas after one called Saul of Tarsus: for beholde, he prayeth.
12 nombewo mu yakwiwona ambweni mundu liina lyakwe che Anania achijinjilaga nkati ni kunsajichila makono gakwe kuti akombole kulola sooni.”
(And he sawe in a vision a man named Ananias comming in to him, and putting his hands on him, that he might receiue his sight.)
13 Nambo che Anania ŵajanjile, “Ambuje, mbilikene ngani sya mundu ju kutyochela kwa ŵandu ŵajinji, mbilikene yangalumbana iŵaapanganyichisye ŵaswela ŵenu ku Yelusalemu kula.
Then Ananias answered, Lord, I haue heard by many of this man, howe much euill hee hath done to thy saints at Hierusalem.
14 Ni apano aiche ali ni ulamusi kutyochela kwa achakulu ŵambopesi, ŵakamule ŵandu wose ŵakunkulupilila mmwe Che Yesu.”
Moreouer here hee hath authoritie of the hie Priestes, to binde all that call on thy Name.
15 Nambo Ambuje ŵansalile che Anania, “Njauleje pe, pakuŵa naasagwile kuti andumichile, ajenesye ngani syangu kwa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ni kwa mamwenye ni kwa Ŵaisilaeli nombe.
Then the Lord said vnto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessell vnto me, to beare my Name before the Gentiles, and Kings, and the children of Israel.
16 Uneji nansyene chinaalosye indu yekulungwa ichaŵajilwe kulagaswa nayo kwaligongo lyangu.”
For I will shewe him, howe many things he must suffer for my Names sake.
17 Nipele, che Anania ŵajawile ni kwinjila mu nyuumba jo. Ŵaasajichile makono che Sauli ni kuti, “Nlongo njangu che Sauli, Ambuje Che Yesu juŵakukopochele pamwaliji mwitala kwika apano, andumile kuti nkombole kulola sooni ni kugumbaswa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.”
Then Ananias went his way, and entred into that house, and put his hands on him, and sayd, Brother Saul, the Lord hath sent me (euen Iesus that appeared vnto thee in the way as thou camest) that thou mightest receiue thy sight, and be filled with the holy Ghost.
18 Papopo yagwile mmeeso mwakwe che Sauli indu mpela ikalaŵesya ni ŵakombwele kulola sooni. Ni ŵajimwiche ni kubatiswa.
And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had bene scales, and suddenly he receiued sight, and arose, and was baptized,
19 Nipele ŵalile chakulya ni kukola machili sooni. Che Sauli ŵatemi pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵa Che Yesu kwa moŵa kanandi ku Damesiki kula.
And receiued meate, and was strengthened. So was Saul certaine dayes with the disciples which were at Damascus.
20 Papopo ŵatandite kulalichila mmajumba ga kupopelela ga Ŵayahudi kuti Che Yesu ali Mwana jwa Akunnungu.
And straightway hee preached Christ in the Synagogues, that he was that Sonne of God,
21 Ŵandu wose ŵaŵampilikene ŵasimosile ni kuti, “Ana jweleju ngaŵa julajula jwaŵauleje aŵala ŵaŵankulupililaga Che Yesu ku Yelusalemu kula? Ni sooni ŵaiche akuno kuti ŵakamule ŵanyawo ni kwajausya kwa achakulu ŵambopesi!”
So that all that heard him, were amased, and sayde, Is not this hee, that made hauocke of them which called on this Name in Hierusalem, and came hither for that intent, that hee should bring them bound vnto the hie Priests?
22 Che Sauli ŵapundile kukola machili, ni kwasimosya Ŵayahudi ŵakutama ku Damesiki iŵatite pakulosya pangasisa kuti, Che Yesu ali Kilisito.
But Saul encreased the more in strength, and confounded the Iewes which dwelt at Damascus, confirming, that this was that Christ.
23 Pagapite moŵa gamajinji, Ŵayahudi ŵajilene ni kusosa itajile pakwaulaga che Sauli.
And after that many dayes were fulfilled, the Iewes tooke counsell together, to kill him,
24 Nambo che Sauli ŵapilikene ngani jo. Nipele ŵandu ŵaliji nkwajuŵilila mminango ja kwinjilila mmusi wo muusi ni chilo, kuti ŵaulaje.
But their laying awayte was knowen of Saul: nowe they watched the gates day and night, that they might kill him.
25 Nambo chilo chimo ŵakulijiganya ŵakwe ŵanjigele mu chitundu ni kumpelesya pepowo pa likumba lya musi ni kunselelesya mpaka paasi.
Then the disciples tooke him by night, and put him through the wall, and let him downe by a rope in a basket.
26 Che Sauli paŵaiche ku Yelusalemu ŵasachile kuliwanganya ni ŵakulijiganya ŵane ŵala. Nambo wose ŵanjogwepe, nganakulupilila kuti che Sauli ŵaliji jwakulijiganya njao.
And when Saul was come to Hierusalem, he assayed to ioyne himselfe with the disciples: but they were all afrayd of him, and beleeued not that he was a disciple.
27 Nipele che Banaba ŵanjigele che Sauli ni kunjausya kwa achinduna, ni kwasalila yankati che Sauli iŵatite pakwawona Ambuje Che Yesu mwitala ni kukunguluka nawo, ni iŵatite pakwalalichila ŵandu ngani si Che Yesu pangali lipamba ku Damesiki kula.
But Barnabas tooke him, and brought him to the Apostles, and declared to them, howe hee had seene the Lord in the way, and that hee had spoken vnto him, and how he had spoken boldly at Damascus in the Name of Iesus.
28 Nipele che Sauli ŵatemi pamo nawo, ni ŵajesile mu Yelusalemu mose achilalichilaga ŵandu Liloŵe lya Ambuje pangali lipamba.
And hee was conuersant with them at Hierusalem,
29 Ni sooni ŵakungulwiche ni kukanilana ni Ŵayahudi ŵakuŵecheta Chigiliki, nambo ŵanyawo ŵasachile kummulaga.
And spake boldly in the Name of the Lord Iesus, and spake and disputed against the Grecians: but they went about to slay him.
30 Ŵakukulupilila ŵala paŵaimanyilile yeleyo, ŵanjigele che Sauli ni kunjausya ku Kaisalia, ni ŵannesile kweleko kuti ajaule ku Taso.
But when the brethren knewe it, they brought him to Cesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.
31 Katema ko mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵala ŵakwete chitendewele ku Yudea kose ni ku Galilaya kose ni ku Samalia kose. Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵapele machili ni ŵajonjesyeche ni ŵatemi kwa kwajogopa Ambuje.
Then had the Churches rest through all Iudea, and Galile, and Samaria, and were edified and walked in the feare of the Lord, and were multiplied by the comfort of the holy Ghost.
32 Che Petulo paŵaliji nkwendajenda pali pose, ŵaiche sooni kwa ŵakukulupilila ŵakutama ku Luda.
And it came to passe, as Peter walked throughout all quarters, hee came also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda.
33 Ŵansimene kweleko mundu jwakuŵilanjikwa che Ainea, juŵagonile pa chindanda kwa yaka nsano ni itatu pakuŵa ŵatatele.
And there he found a certaine man named Aeneas, which had kept his couch eight yeeres, and was sicke of the palsie.
34 Nipele, che Petulo ŵansalile, “Che Ainea, Che Yesu Kilisito akunnamisya. Njimuche, ntandiche chindanda chenu.” Papopo che Ainea ŵajimwiche.
Then said Peter vnto him, Aeneas, Iesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise and trusse thy couch together. And he arose immediately.
35 Ŵandu wose ŵaŵatemi ku Luda ni ku Shaloni ŵambweni che Ainea, ni wose ŵankulupilile Ambuje.
And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron, sawe him, and turned to the Lord.
36 Ku Yopa ko jwapali jwakulijiganya jwankongwe liina lyakwe che Tabisa, mu Chigiliki che Doka, malumbo gakwe, ngolombwe. Jweleju ŵapanganyaga yambone ni kwakamuchisya ŵakulaga moŵa gose.
There was also at Ioppa a certaine woman, a disciple named Tabitha (which by interpretation is called Dorcas) she was full of good workes and almes which she did.
37 Moŵa gala ŵalwasile ni ŵajasiche. Ŵandu ŵagajojesye malilo gakwe ni ŵagaŵisile mu chuumba cha mwinani.
And it came to passe in those dayes, that she was sicke and dyed: and when they had washed her, they layd her in an vpper chamber.
38 Ku Yopa nganikutalikangana ni ku Luda, nipele ŵakulijiganya paŵapilikene kuti che Petulo ali ku Luda, ŵalajisye ŵandu ŵaŵili kukwao ni kwachondelela kuti, “Nnyiche chitema pe kukwetu.”
Now forasmuch as Lydda was neere to Ioppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent vnto him two men, desiring that he would not delay to come vnto them.
39 Nipele, che Petulo ŵalongene nawo. Paŵaiche, ŵanlongwesye ku chuumba cha mwinani. Kweleko ŵaŵililwe ni achiŵankwawo wose ŵansyungwile che Petulo achililaga ni kwalosya minjilo ni yakuwala ine iŵaipanganyisye che Doka akanaŵe kwasika.
Then Peter arose and came with them: and when hee was come, they brought him into the vpper chamber, where all the widowes stoode by him weeping, and shewing the coates and garments, which Dorcas made, while she was with them.
40 Che Petulo ŵaakopwesye paasa wose, ŵatindiŵele ni kupopela. Nipele, ŵagagalauchile malilo gala ni kuti, “Che Tabisa njimuche.” Nombejo ŵatatanukwile meeso gao, ni paŵaweni che Petulo ŵajimwiche ni kutama.
But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled downe, and prayed, and turned him to the body, and sayd, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes, and when she sawe Peter, sate vp.
41 Che Petulo ŵankamwile nkono ni kunjimika, ni ŵaaŵilasile ŵandu ŵakukulupilila ni ŵaŵililwe ni achiŵankwawo ŵala, ŵapele ali jwanjumi.
Then he gaue her the hand and lift her vp, and called the Saints and widowes, and restored her aliue.
42 Ngani jo jajenele papali pose ku Yopa ko, ni ŵandu ŵajinji ŵaakulupilile Ambuje.
And it was knowen throughout all Ioppa, and many beleeued in the Lord.
43 Che Petulo ŵalonjele ku Yopa kula moŵa gampepe, achitamaga mu nyuumba ja mundu jwakuŵilanjikwa che Simoni jwakukolosya mapende.
And it came to passe that he taried many dayes in Ioppa with one Simon a Tanner.
