< Acts 5 >

1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold property,
Jwapali mundu jumo jwakuŵilanjikwa che Anania pamo ni ŵankwakwe che Safila, nombewo iyoyo peyo ŵasumisye ngunda wao.
2 and kept back from the price, his wife also having joint awareness. And having brought a certain part, he placed it at the apostles' feet.
Nambo che Anania ŵasapwile mbiya siŵapatile ni kusisa akuno ŵankwakwe ali nkumanyilila yeleyo ni sine ŵapelechele achinduna ŵala.
3 But Peter said, Ananias, why did Satan fill thy heart for thee to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back from the price of the land?
Nipele che Petulo ŵammusisye, “Che Anania, kwaligongo chi nkunneka Shetani ajinjile mu ntima mwenu ni kuntenda munnambusye Mbumu jwa Akunnungu kwa kusisa mbiya simwapatile pamwasumisye ngunda ula?
4 While it remained, did it not remain to thee? And after it was sold, it was in thine authority. Why is it that thou have placed this matter in thy heart? Thou have not lied to men, but to God.
Pamwaliji ngannasumisye, ngunda wo waliji wenu ni pamwasumisye ngunda wo, mbiya simwapatile syo syaliji syenu, nkakombwele kupanganyichisya kwa yaili yose imwaisachile. Ana kwachichi mwasachile mu ntima mwenu kuchitendekanya chelechi? Nganimunlambusya mundu nambo mwalambwisye Akunnungu!”
5 And Ananias hearing these words, after falling down he expired. And great fear developed in all who heard these things.
Che Anania nkupilikana pe yeleyo, ŵagwile paasi ni kuwa. Ŵandu wose ŵaŵapilikene ngani jo ŵakamwilwe ni lipamba kwannope.
6 And after rising the young men wrapped him, and having carried him out they buried him.
Achachanda ŵajimi ni kuchiŵilijila saanda chiilu chakwe, ŵankopwesye paasa ni kwaula kukunsika.
7 And it came to pass after an interval of three hours, his wife also came in, not knowing that which happened.
Nti masaa gatatu ŵankwakwe ŵajinjile nkati pangaimanyilila indu iyatyochele.
8 And Peter responded to her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much. And she said, Yes, for so much.
Nipele che Petulo ŵambusisye, “Musalile! Ana syelesi ni mbiya syose simwapatile kwa kusumisya ngunda wenu mmwe ni ŵankwenu?” Che Safila ŵajanjile, “Elo, kwa syele mbiya syo.”
9 But Peter said to her, How is it that it was agreed by you to challenge the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who buried thy husband are at the door, and they will carry thee out.
Che Petulo ŵansalile, “Ligongo chi mmwe ni ŵankwenu mwajilene kunlinga Mbumu jwa Ambuje? Nnole! Aŵala ŵandu ŵaŵajawile kukunsika ŵankwenu, sambano ali pannango, ni sooni chanjigale nomweji ŵakwe.”
10 And immediately she fell down at his feet and expired. And after coming in the young men found her dead, and having carried her out, they buried her by her husband.
Papopo che Safila ŵagwile paasi, mmbujo mwa che Petulo ni kuwa. Achachanda ŵala paŵajinjile ŵansimene ali awile, nipele ŵankopwesye paasa ni kunsika chiŵandika ni ŵankwakwe.
11 And great fear developed in the whole church, and in all who heard these things.
Mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito wose ni ŵandu wose ŵaŵapilikene ngani jo ŵakamwilwe ni lipamba lyelikulungwa.
12 And by the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders happened among the people. And they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.
Achinduna ŵala ŵapanganyisye imanyisyo yejinji ni yakusimonjeka pasikati ja ŵandu ŵala. Ŵakukulupilila ŵala ŵachinganganaga pamo pansana u che Selemani wauli pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu.
13 But of the rest no man dared join them, but the people magnified them.
Ni nganapagwa mundu jwalijose mwa ŵangakunkulupilila Kilisito juŵalinjile kuwanganyikana nawo. Nambo ŵandu ŵane mwa ŵangakunkulupilila Kilisito wo ŵalapile ŵakukulupilila ŵala.
14 And more who believe were added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women,
Winji wa ŵandu ŵaŵakulupilile Ambuje wapundaga konjecheka nnope achalume ni achakongwe,
15 so as to bring the feeble to the thoroughfares, and to place them on cots and mats, so that while coming, the shadow of Peter might at the least overshadow some of them.
namose ŵandu ŵajausyaga ŵakulwala mwitala ni kwagoneka mu indanda ni mu igono kuti apitaga che Petulo atamuno chiwilili chao chaichilile ŵampepe ŵao.
16 And also the populace of the cities round about came together to Jerusalem bringing the feeble, and those tormented by unclean spirits, who were all healed.
Ŵandu ŵajinji kutyochela mmisi ja muumbali mwa Yelusalemu ŵaiche achajigalaga ŵakulwala ni ŵaali ni masoka, ni wose ŵalamiswe.
17 But after rising up, the high priest and all those with him (being the sect of the Sadducees) were filled of envy.
Nipele Jwambopesi Jwankulu ni achinjakwe ŵaŵaliji ŵampingo wa Masadukayo ŵaŵatemi pelepo, ŵaakolele wiu achinduna ŵala.
18 And they threw their hands on the apostles, and put them in the public prison.
Nipele, ŵakamwile achinduna ni kwaŵika mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa ja ŵandu achajinji.
19 But an agent of the Lord opened the prison doors by night, and after leading them out, he said,
Nambo chilo katumetume jwa kwinani jwa Ambuje ŵajiugwile minango ja nyuumba jakutaŵilwa ni ŵakopwesye paasa ni kwasalila,
20 Go ye, and after standing in the temple, speak to the people all the sayings of this Life.
“Njaulanje nkajime pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu nkaasalile ŵandu maloŵe gose ga umi wa sambano wu.”
21 And having heard, they entered into the temple at early morning, and taught. But the high priest having arrived, and those with him, they called the council together, and all the senate of the sons of Israel. And they sent to the prison for them to be brought.
Achinduna ŵala ŵajitichisye, kundaŵi pe ŵajinjilenje pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ni kutanda kwiganya. Jwambopesi Jwankulu ni achinjakwe paŵaiche, ŵaaŵilasile achachekulu ŵa Ŵaisilaeli ni kutama nawo Nkungulu wekulungwa. Ni ŵalajisye ŵandu ku nyuumba jakutaŵilwa kuti akaajigale achinduna ŵala.
22 But the subordinates who came did not find them in the prison. And having returned, they reported,
Nambo ŵakulindilila ŵala paŵaiche mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa, nganiŵasimana achinduna ŵala. Nipele ŵausile pa Nkungulu ni kwasalila ngani jo
23 saying, We found the prison indeed shut in all security, and the guards standing before the doors, but after opening, we found no man inside.
achitiji, “Tujisimene nyuumba jakutaŵilwa jajiugale mbande syose ni ŵakulindilila achilindililaga mminango. Nambo patwaugwile nganitunsimana mundu jwalijose nkati.”
24 Now when they heard these words, the high priest, and the captain of the temple, and the chief priests, were perplexed about them, whatever this would become.
Jwankulu jwa ŵakulindilila Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ni Achakulu Ŵambopesi paŵapilikene ngani jo ŵajinjilwe ni lipamba, nganaimanyilila iyasimene achinduna ŵa Che Yesu.
25 But a certain man who arrived, reported to them, Behold, the men whom ye put in the prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people.
Nipele ŵaiche mundu ni kwasalila, “Ŵandu umwaŵisile mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa ŵala, sambano ali pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu achajiganyaga ŵandu.”
26 Then after departing, the captain with the subordinates brought them, not with violence, for they feared the people, lest they would be stoned.
Nipele jwankulu jwa ŵakulindilila Nyuumba ja Akunnungu pamo ni achinjakwe ŵajawile ku Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ni kwajigala achinduna ni kwaikanawo pa Nkungulu. Nambo nganiŵakamula kwa machili pakuŵa ŵajogopaga kuti ŵandu chachaponya maganga.
27 And having brought them, they placed them in the council. And the high priest demanded them,
Nipele ŵaajigele achinduna ni kwajimika paujo pa Nkungulu. Jwambopesi Jwankulu ŵasalile ŵanyawo,
28 saying, Did we not command by an order for you not to teach in this name? And behold, ye have filled Jerusalem of your doctrine, and intend to bring upon us this man's blood.
“Twannekasisye kwamachili kuti nkajiganya sooni kwa liina lya mundu ju, ni sambano nnole chintesile, njenesye majiganyo genu mu Yelusalemu mose ni sooni nkusaka kutulalatila nkati chiwa cha mundu ju.”
29 And Peter and the apostles having answered, they said, We must obey God rather than men.
Pelepo che Petulo pamo ni achinduna achinjakwe ŵajanjile, “Ikutuŵajila kwapilikanichisya Akunnungu, ngaŵa ŵandu.
30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye murdered, having hung on a tree.
Akunnungu ŵa achambuje ŵetu ŵansyusisye Che Yesu ajula jumwammuleje kwa kwaŵamba pansalaba.
31 God exalted this man with his right hand, a Pathfinder and a Savior to give repentance to Israel and remission of sins.
Jweleju ni jwejula jwakwesiswe ni Akunnungu mpaka kundyo kwao aŵe Chilongola ni Nkulupusyo kuti ŵakamuchisye Ŵaisilaeli aleche sambi syao nombejo ŵalechelesye sambi syao.
32 And we are his witnesses of these things, and also the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him.
Noweji tuli ŵaumboni ŵa yeleyo pamo ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵaŵapele aŵala ŵakwajitichisya Akunnungu.”
33 And when they heard this, they were as being split with a saw, and wanted to annihilate them.
Mpingo wose wa Nkungulu paŵapilikene yeleyo, yachimile nnope ni ŵasachile kwaulaga achinduna ŵala.
34 But after standing up in the council, a certain Pharisee named Gamaliel, a law teacher, esteemed by all the people, commanded to make the apostles be outside a little while.
Nambo Mfalisayo jumo jwakuŵilanjikwa che Gamalieli juŵaliji jwakwiganya jwa Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa juŵachimbichikwe nnope ni ŵandu wose, ŵajimi paujo pa Nkungulu wa Ŵayahudi ni kulamula kwakoposya paasa achinduna ŵala kwa katema kakajipi.
35 And he said to them, Men, Israelites, take heed to yourselves what ye are going to do against these men.
Ni kuusalila mpingo wa Nkungulu ula, “Ŵanyamwe Ŵaisilaeli achinjangu, nlilolechesye mwachinsyene nkanaŵe kupanganya inkwisaka kwapanganyichisya ŵandu ŵa!
36 For before these days Theudas rose up saying himself to be somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, bonded themselves, who was killed. And all, as many as were persuaded by him, were dispersed and developed into nothing.
Kalakala kanandi kwakopochele mundu jumo liina lyakwe che Seuda, achilitendaga jwankulu ni ŵandu mpela mia nne ŵankuiye. Nambo jwelejo ŵaulajikwe ni ŵaŵankulupililaga wose ŵapwilingene ni ngani jakwe jamalile.
37 After this man Judas the Galilean rose up in the days of the registration, and drew a considerable crowd behind him. That man was also destroyed, and all, as many as were persuaded by him, were scattered.
Ni sooni kanyuma mundu jo, pa moŵa ga kuŵalanga ŵandu gala ŵatyochele che Yuda jwa ku Galilaya. Nombe ju ŵaachisisye ŵandu ŵajinji ni ŵankuiye, nambo jwelejo nombe ŵaulajikwe ni ŵanawose ŵaŵankulupililaga ŵapwilingene.
38 And now I say to you, keep away from these men, and let them go, because if the project or this work is from men, it will be overthrown,
Ni sambano ngunsalila ŵanyamwe, nkaatenda chachili chose ŵandu ŵa, mwaleche! Pakuŵa iŵaga liloŵe li atamuno masengo ga gali ga ŵandu, chigaweseche.
39 but if it is from God, ye cannot overthrow it, and perhaps ye may be found to be fighting against God.
Nambo iŵaga masengo ga gakutyochela kwa Akunnungu nsyene, ngaŵa kuti chinnepele pe, nambo chimmoneche nti nkwakanila Akunnungu.” Nipele ŵandu wose ŵa Nkungulu ŵanjitichisye jwelejo.
40 And they were persuaded by him. And after summoning the apostles, having beat them, they commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and released them.
Nipele ŵaaŵilasile achinduna ŵala munkati, ŵalamwile kuti aputikwe mbokola ni kwajamuka kuti ngasaŵecheta sooni kwa liina li Che Yesu, ni ŵaalesile ajaulangane.
41 Indeed therefore they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were considered worthy to be treated shamefully for the name of Jesus.
Nipele achinduna ŵala ŵakopweche paasa Nkungulu ula ali nkusangalala nnope, pakuŵa Akunnungu ŵaiweni kuti aŵajilwe kujaluswa ligongo li Che Yesu.
42 And every day, in the temple and from house to house, they ceased not teaching and preaching good news, Jesus, the Christ.
Ni moŵa gose ŵapundile kwiganya ni kulalichila Ngani Jambone pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ni mmajumba ga ŵandu kuti Che Yesu ali Kilisito.
