Acts 10
1 Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,
Pamuji wa Kaisalia kwavili na mundu mmonga liina laki Kolineli, mwene avi mkulu wa manjolinjoli va chikundi chechikemelewa “Msambi wa Italia.”
2 a devout man, and one who feared God with all his house, who gave gifts for the needy generously to the people, and always prayed to God.
Mwene avi mundu mbwina, mwene pamonga na lukolo lwaki voha vamuyupayi Chapanga. Ahengayi mambu gamahele ga kuvatangatila vangangu va Vayawudi na kumuyupa Chapanga magono goha.
3 At about the ninth hour of the day, he clearly saw in a vision an angel of God coming to him and saying to him, “Cornelius!”
Ligono limonga lukumbi lwa saa tisa ya muhi awene maono hotohoto, Mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga akumbwelela na kumjovela, “Kolineli!”
4 He, fastening his eyes on him and being frightened, said, “What is it, Lord?” He said to him, “Your prayers and your gifts to the needy have gone up for a memorial before God.
Kolineli akamlolokesa takataka cha wogohi Mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga yula, ndi akamkota “Chivii kyani Bambu?” Mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga akamyangula, “Chapanga ayuwini kumuyupa kwaku na aganisiwi na kuvatangatila kwaku vangangu ndi akukumbwiki.
5 Now send men to Joppa, and get Simon, who is also called Peter.
Hinu, uvatumayi vandu ku Yopa vakamtola mundu mmonga liina laki Simoni. Ndi mewa ikemelewa Petili.
6 He is staying with a tanner named Simon, whose house is by the seaside.
Mwene ndi myehe munyumba ya Simoni, mundu mweitendelekela vindu vya chikumba. Nyumba yaki yivii pamuhana ya nyanja.”
7 When the angel who spoke to him had departed, Cornelius called two of his household servants and a devout soldier of those who waited on him continually.
Mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga yula peawukili, Kolineli akavakemela vatumisi vavili va nyumba na mmonga wa manjolinjoli vaki mweakumyidakila Chapanga.
8 Having explained everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
Peavadandaulili mambu goha gegahumalili, akavatuma ku Yopa.
9 Now on the next day as they were on their journey and got close to the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray at about noon.
Chilau yaki, lukumbi lwa saa sita ya muhi, vandu avo vadatu mulugendu lwavi, papipi kuhika ku Yopa, Petili akakwela kunani ya nyumba kumuyupa Chapanga.
10 He became hungry and desired to eat, but while they were preparing, he fell into a trance.
Njala yamvinili, akanogela kulya. Nambu chakulya pachatendelekewayi mwene akalola maono.
11 He saw heaven opened and a certain container descending to him, like a great sheet let down by four corners on the earth,
Awene kunani kwa Chapanga kudinduliwi na chindu ngati shuka yivaha yihuluswa pahi, kuni yikamuliwi pandi zoha mcheche za mulima.
12 in which were all kinds of four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, reptiles, and birds of the sky.
Na mugati ya shuka yila mwavi hinyama ndalindali, hinyama ya magendelu mcheche na hinyama yeyilandala pamulima na videge vyevimbululuka.
13 A voice came to him, “Rise, Peter, kill and eat!”
Akayuwana lwami lukumjovela, “Petili, yimuka hinja na ulyayi.”
14 But Peter said, “Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.”
Nambu Petili akamyangula, “Lepi Bambu! Nene katu niwonjili lepi chindu chochoha changayidakiliwa kulya.”
15 A voice came to him again the second time, “What God has cleansed, you must not call unclean.”
Nambu lwami lula lukamuyila kavili, “Lukamjovela vindu vyeaviyidakiliwi na Chapanga kulya, kotoka kuvikelamela vihakau.”
16 This was done three times, and immediately the thing was received up into heaven.
Lijambu lila lahengiki mala zidatu, kangi shuka yivaha yila yikawuyiswa kanyata kunani kwa Chapanga.
17 Now while Peter was very perplexed in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men who were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon’s house, stood before the gate,
Petili peavi akona ikangasa maono gala mana yaki kyani, hinu vandu vala vevatumwili na Kolineli pevamanyiswi nyumba ya Simoni, vakahika pamlyangu.
18 and called and asked whether Simon, who was also called Peter, was lodging there.
Vakahodisa kwa lwami, “Vakakota kuvya kuna myehe mweitama apa ikemiwa Simoni Petili?”
19 While Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men seek you.
Petili pealinga kuhololela mana ya maono gala, Mpungu Msopi akamjovela, “Yuwanila! Vavi vandu vadatu vakukulonda.
20 But arise, get down, and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them.”
Huluka kanyata na ulongosana nawu kuhamba changali mtahu, muni nene ndi mwenivatumili.”
21 Peter went down to the men, and said, “Behold, I am he whom you seek. Why have you come?”
Hinu, Petili akahuluka pahi, akavajovela vandu vala, “Mwemukunilonda ndi nene. Ndava kyani munibwelili?”
22 They said, “Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous man and one who fears God, and well spoken of by all the nation of the Jews, was directed by a holy angel to invite you to his house, and to listen to what you say.”
Vene vakamyangula, atitumili “Kolineli mkulu wa manjolinjoli, mundu mbwina, mweakumuyupa Chapanga, itopeswa na Vayawudi. Ajoviwi na mtumu wa Kunani kwa Chapanga akumgongolela kunyumba yaki, muni ayuwana chochoha chila cheukumjovela.”
23 So he called them in and provided a place to stay. On the next day Peter arose and went out with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.
Petili akavakemela mugati mula, akavapela pandu pa kugona kilu yila. Chilau yaki, Petili akatumbula lugendu pamonga nawu. Vamsadika vangi vevatamayi ku Yopa vakalongosana.
24 On the next day they entered into Caesarea. Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his relatives and his near friends.
Ndi pamalau yaki vakahika pamuji wa Kaisalia. Kolineli avi mukuvalindila mwene na vanalukolo lwaki pamonga na vankozi veavagongolili.
25 When Peter entered, Cornelius met him, fell down at his feet, and worshiped him.
Petili peavi mukuyingila Kolineli akahamba kumkumbatila cha uganu, akamfugamila mumagendelu gaki akamgundamila.
26 But Peter raised him up, saying, “Stand up! I myself am also a man.”
Nambu Petili akamuyinula, akamjovela, “Yima, muni nene namundu ngati veve.”
27 As he talked with him, he went in and found many gathered together.
Petili na Kolineli viyingila mugati, kuni vilongela ndi vavakolili vandu vamahele vakonganiki.
28 He said to them, “You yourselves know how it is an unlawful thing for a man who is a Jew to join himself or come to one of another nation, but God has shown me that I should not call any man unholy or unclean.
Petili akavajovela, “Mwavene mmanyi hotohoto, kuvya Myawudi abesiwi na malagizu kwa njila ya kumuyupa Chapanga yaki kutangatilana na mundu angali kuvya Myawudi, amala kumgendela nambu Chapanga anilangisi nene kuvya nakuyidakiliwa kumkemela mundu yoyoha iganikiwa lepi amala mhakau.
29 Therefore I also came without complaint when I was sent for. I ask therefore, why did you send for me?”
Ndava ya yeniyo, pamwakanikemili nibweli changali mtahu. Hinu munijovela munikemelili kyani?”
30 Cornelius said, “Four days ago, I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour, I prayed in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing
Kolineli akayangula, “Magono gadatu gamumbele, lukumbi lwa saa tisa ya muhi, nene navi muchumba changu kumuyupa Chapanga. Chigafula namuwene mundu mweawalili nyula zezing'asima neju, ayimili palongolo yangu,
31 and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your gifts to the needy are remembered in the sight of God.
anijovili, Kolineli! Chapanga ayuwini chewiyupa pamonga na teta zaku kwa vangangu.
32 Send therefore to Joppa and summon Simon, who is also called Peter. He is staying in the house of a tanner named Simon, by the seaside. When he comes, he will speak to you.’
Hinu uvatuma vandu vahamba ku Yopa, vakamkemela mundu mmonga liina laki Simoni mweikemelewa mewa Petili. Mwenuyo avili kunyumba ya Simoni, mundu mweitendelekela vindu vya chikumba, nyumba yaki yivii pamumhana ya nyanja.
33 Therefore I sent to you at once, and it was good of you to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God to hear all things that have been commanded you by God.”
Ndi kanyata navatumili vajumbi kwaku, wamwene ukitili chabwina kubwela. Tavoha apa tivii palongolo ya Chapanga, ndava ya kukuyuwanila chindu chochoha cheakulagizi Bambu utijovela.”
34 Peter opened his mouth and said, “Truly I perceive that God does not show favoritism;
Kangi Petili akatumbula kujova, “Hinu nimanyili kuvya Chapanga ibagula lepi.
35 but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
Nambu mundu yeyoha mumulima mweiyupa na kuhenga gakumganisa Chapanga yati iyidakiliwa namwene.
36 The word which he sent to the children of Israel, preaching good news of peace by Jesus Christ—he is Lord of all—
Umanyili ujumbi wula Chapanga weavapelekili vandu va ku Isilaeli, ikokosa Lilovi la Bwina lelileta uteke kwa njila ya Yesu Kilisitu mwene ndi Bambu wa voha.
37 you yourselves know what happened, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
Mwavene mumanyili lijambu lelahumalili pamulima woha wa Vayawudi kutumbula ku Galilaya Yohani peamali kukokosa ndava ya ubatizu.
38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
Mwimanya kuvya Chapanga cheamhagwili Yesu wa ku Nazaleti, ndi akammemesa Mpungu Msopi na kumpela makakala. Chapanga avi pamonga nayu, mwene ahambili kila pandu kuhenga gabwina na kuvalamisa vandu voha vevang'aiswi na Setani.
39 We are witnesses of everything he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they also killed, hanging him on a tree.
Tavete tagawene mambu goha geagahengili pamulima wa Vayawudi na muji wa ku Yelusalemu. Vamkomili na kumvamba munjila ya msalaba.
40 God raised him up the third day and gave him to be revealed,
Nambu Chapanga amyukisi pagamaliki magono gadatu kuhuma kwa vevafwili. Akaloleka hotohoto,
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses who were chosen before by God, to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
awonikini lepi kwa vandu voha, nambu kwa tete ndu tetamali kuhaguliwi na Chapanga kuvya vetagawene. Ndi tete vetalili na kunywelela pamonga nayu peamali kuyuka kwaki.
42 He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that this is he who is appointed by God as the Judge of the living and the dead.
Atilagazili kuvakokosela vandu voha Lilovi la Bwina na kuvajovela kuvya mwene ndi mweahaguliwi na Chapanga, kuvya mhamula wa vandu vevavili mumi na vandu vevafwili.
43 All the prophets testify about him, that through his name everyone who believes in him will receive remission of sins.”
Vamlota voha va Chapanga vijova ndava yaki kuvya mundu yoyoha mweakumsadika Yesu, yati ilekekeswa kumbudila Chapanga, paliina laki.”
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those who heard the word.
Petili pavi akona ilongela malovi ago, Mpungu Msopi akavahelelela vandu voha vevayuwanila ujumbi wula.
45 They of the circumcision who believed were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was also poured out on the Gentiles.
Vayawudi vamsadika vevabweli pamonga na Petili kuhuma ku Yopa, vakangisi kulola Chapanga avamemisi njombi ya Mpungu Msopi vandu vangali Vayawudi.
46 For they heard them speaking in other languages and magnifying God. Then Peter answered,
Muni vavayuwini vilongela kwa muluga za chiyehe kuni vakumulumbalila Chapanga. Kangi Petili akajova,
47 “Can anyone forbid these people from being baptized with water? They have received the Holy Spirit just like us.”
“Vandu ava vampokili Mpungu Msopi ngati tete. Wu, avi mundu yoyoha, mweakuvabesa vakotoka kubatiziwa na manji?”
48 He commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay some days.
Ndi akalagiza vabatiziwa kwa uhotola wa Yesu Kilisitu, kangi vakamuyupa Petili atama nawu magono nunuyu.
