Acts 15
1 And certain men came down from Judæa and taught the brethren, [saying], Except ye be circumcised after the custom of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
Ŵaiche ŵandu ŵane ku Antiokia kutyochela ku Yudea ni kutanda kwajiganya achalongo ŵala achitiji, “Iŵaga ngammumbala malinga ni chisyoŵelo chiŵalamwile che Musa, ngankombola kukulupuka.”
2 And when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and questioning with them, [the brethren] appointed that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.
Che Paolo ni che Banaba ŵakanilanaga nawo yankati ngani jo, nipele ŵaasagwile che Paolo ni che Banaba pamo ni mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵampepe ŵa ku Antiokia ko ajaulangane kwa achinduna ni achachekulu ku Yelusalemu kukukunguluchila ngani jo.
3 They therefore, being brought on their way by the church, passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
Nipele mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵala ŵaalanjile, ni ŵanyawo ŵapite ku Foinike ni ku Samalia achisalaga yankati ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi iŵatite pakwagalauchila Akunnungu. Ni ngani jo jaasengwasisye nnope ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito.
4 And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church and the apostles and the elders, and they rehearsed all things that God had done with them.
Paŵaiche ku Yelusalemu, mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ni achinduna ni achachekulu ŵaapochele ŵanyawo, nombewo ŵaasalile yanayose iŵaitesile Akunnungu pamo nawo.
5 But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees who believed, saying, It is needful to circumcise them, and to charge them to keep the law of Moses.
Ni ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵane ŵa mpingo wa Mafalisayo ŵajimi ni kuti, “Iŵajilwe ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi kwaumbasya ni kwajiganya kugakamulichisya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa.”
6 And the apostles and the elders were gathered together to consider of this matter.
Nipele achinduna ni achachekulu ŵasongangene kuti asosesose yankati liloŵe lyo.
7 And when there had been much questioning, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Brethren, ye know that a good while ago God made choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
Paŵapundaga kuusyausyana, che Petulo ŵajimi ni kuti, “Achalongo achinjangu, mwachinsyene nkumanyilila kuti moŵa gagapite Akunnungu yanonyele kuusagula une pasikati jenu nalichile Ngani Jambone kwa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, kuti apilikane ni kukulupilila.
8 And God, who knoweth the heart, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Spirit, even as he did unto us;
Nombe Akunnungu ŵakujimanyilila mitima ja ŵandu wose, ŵalosisye pangasisa kuti ŵapochele pakwapa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu mpela iŵatite pakutupa uweji.
9 and he made no distinction between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith.
Nganatenda lusagu pasikati jetu ni ŵanyawo, ŵajiswejesye mitima jao ligongo ŵakulupilile.
10 Now therefore why make ye trial of God, that ye should put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
Sambano, ana ligongo chi nkwalinga Akunnungu? Ana kwa chichi nkulinga kwatwika ŵakulijiganya ŵala misigo jakutopa janganakombola kutwichila achambuje ŵetu natamuno uweji?
11 But we believe that we shall be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in like manner as they.
Ikaŵaga yeleyo, nambo tukukulupilila kuti tutukulupuswe ni upile wa Ambuje Che Yesu, mpela ŵanyawo yakuti pakukulupilila.”
12 And all the multitude kept silence; and they hearkened unto Barnabas and Paul rehearsing what signs and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles through them.
Mpingo wose wamyalele ni kwapilikanila che Banaba ni che Paolo ŵaŵaliji nkwatanjila imanyisyo ni yakusimonjeka yose yaitesile Akunnungu ni makono gao mwa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi.
13 And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Brethren, hearken unto me:
Paŵamyalele, ŵatandite kuŵecheta che Yakobo kuti, “Achalongo achinjangu, mumbilikanile,
14 Symeon hath rehearsed how first God visited the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.
Che Simoni jwakuŵilanjikwa che Petulo atusalile iŵatite Akunnungu kundanda pakwalola ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ni kwasagula ŵampepe mwa ŵelewo kuti aŵeje ŵao.
15 And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
Chelechi chikwilana ni maloŵe ga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu mpela Malembelo ga Akunnungu yagakuti pakusala,
16 After these things I will return, And I will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen; And I will build again the ruins thereof, And I will set it up:
Akunnungu akuti ‘Pakumala yelei chinjiuja, ni kutaŵa sooni lisakasa li che Daudi lilyagwile, chinjikolosya masame gakwe ni kutaŵa sooni.
17 That the residue of men may seek after the Lord, And all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called,
Pelepo ŵandu ŵaŵasigele wose, ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi wose unaŵilasile aŵeje ŵandu ŵangu chiŵasose Ambuje.
Ambuje ni iyakuti pakusala, ŵelewo ni ŵaŵatesile yelei imanyiche chitandile kalakala ko.’” (aiōn g165)
19 Wherefore my judgment is, that we trouble not them that from among the Gentiles turn to God;
Che Yakobo ŵapundile kuŵecheta, “Une ngulamula kuti, tukaasakalisya ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵakwagalauchila Akunnungu.
20 but that we write unto them, that they abstain from the pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from what is strangled, and from blood.
Nambo twalembele chikalata ni kwasalila kuti analye yakulya yaitajikwe mbopesi ku inyago, aleche chikululu ni akalya inyama yakupopotola ni kuleka kulya miasi.
21 For Moses from generations of old hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath.
Pakuŵa chitandile kalakala Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa galiji nkusyomekwa moŵa gose mmajumba ga kupopelela pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila lyalili lyose ni kulalichilwa mmisi jajili jose.”
22 Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole church, to choose men out of their company, and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; [namely], Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:
Nipele, achinduna ni achachekulu pamo ni mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito wose ŵa ku Yelusalemu ŵalamwile kwasagula ŵandu ŵampepe mwa achinsyene pe ni kwalajisya ku Antiokia pamo ni che Paolo ni che Banaba. Nipele ŵaasagwile che Yuda pane akummilanga che Balisaba ni che Sila, ŵanyawo ŵaliji ilongola mwa ŵa ŵandu ŵaŵankulupilile Kilisito.
23 and they wrote [thus] by them, The apostles and the elders, brethren, unto the brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, greeting:
Nipele ŵapele chikalata chichalembekwe yele, “Uweji achinduna ni achachekulu, achalongo achinjenu, tukunkomasya mwanya achalongo achinjetu ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵa Ku Antiokia ni ku Silia ni ku Kilikia.
24 Forasmuch as we have heard that certain who went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls; to whom we gave no commandment;
Tupilikene kuti ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵatyosile kukwetu uwe ŵansakalisye ŵanyamwe ni kuntaga lipamba mitima jenu kwa maloŵe gao. Nambo ŵanyawo nganitwatuma kose.
25 it seemed good unto us, having come to one accord, to choose out men and send them unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
Nipele, tujilene kwa pamo kwasagula ŵandu ŵampepe ni kwatuma kukwenu pamo ni ŵakunonyelwa ŵetu che Banaba ni che Paolo,
26 men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
ŵandu ŵautyosisye umi wao kwaligongo lya masengo ga Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito.
27 We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who themselves also shall tell you the same things by word of mouth.
Nipele, twatumile che Yuda ni che Sila kukwenu, ŵele ŵanyawo chansalile itulembile yo kwa kang'wa syao.
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things:
Pakuŵa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu pamo ni uweji tujitichisye kuti tukaatwika nsigo wine wakutopela kupunda ayi inkusachilwa kuimanyilila.
29 that ye abstain from things sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication; from which if ye keep yourselves, it shall be well with you. Fare ye well.
Nkalya yakulya yaitajikwe mbopesi ku inyago ni nkalya miasi ni nkalya nyama ja inyama yakupopotola ni nneche chikululu. Chintende yambone naga chintende yeleyo, ntame kwa chitendewele.”
30 So they, when they were dismissed, came down to Antioch; and having gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle.
Paŵalanjile, ŵanyawo ŵatyosile ku Yelusalemu ni kutuluchila ku Antiokia, kwele ŵauŵilasile pamo mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito wose, ni kwapa chikalata chila.
31 And when they had read it, they rejoiced for the consolation.
Ni paŵachisyomile chikalata chila, ŵasangalele kwannope ligongo maloŵe gakwe gaatulesye mitima.
32 And Judas and Silas, being themselves also prophets, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.
Che Yuda ni che Sila ŵaŵaliji ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu, ŵaajamwiche achalongo kwa maloŵe gamajinji ni kwalimbisya ŵandu ŵakukulupilila.
33 And after they had spent some time [there], they were dismissed in peace from the brethren unto those that had sent them forth.
Paŵatemi moŵa gampepe ku Antiokia, ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵaalanjile ajaulangane kwa chitendewele, kuuja kwa ŵaŵatumile ŵala.
Nambo che Sila ŵasachile kusigala.
35 But Paul and Barnabas tarried in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
Che Paolo ni che Banaba ŵasigele ku Antiokia kwa moŵa, achijiganyaga ni kulalichila Liloŵe lya Ambuje pamo ni ŵandu ŵane.
36 And after some days Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us return now and visit the brethren in every city wherein we proclaimed the word of the Lord, [and see] how they fare.
Pagapite moŵa gampepe, che Paolo ŵansalile che Banaba, “Twende tuuje, tukaalole achinjetu ŵakunkulupilila Che Yesu ŵala ku misi jajili jose kutwalalichile Liloŵe lya Ambuje ni kulola yakuti pakwendelechela.”
37 And Barnabas was minded to take with them John also, who was called Mark.
Nipele, che Banaba ŵasachile kwajigala che Yohana Maliko kuti alongane nawo.
38 But Paul thought not good to take with them him who withdrew from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.
Nambo che Paolo nganasaka kulongana ni che Maliko, ligongo ŵanlesile ku Pamfilia kundanda ni nganasaka kukamulangana pa masengo gao.
39 And there arose a sharp contention, so that they parted asunder one from the other, and Barnabas took Mark with him, and sailed away unto Cyprus:
Nipele, ŵakanilene kwannope ni kulekangana matala. Che Banaba ŵalongene ni che Maliko, ŵakwesile ngalaŵa ni kwaula ku Kupulo.
40 but Paul chose Silas, and went forth, being commended by the brethren to the grace of the Lord.
Nombe che Paolo ŵansagwile che Sila, ni ŵandu ŵakwakulupilila Che Yesu ŵa pelepo ŵampopelele apegwe upile wa Ambuje ni kwaula.
41 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.
Ni mu ulendo wo ŵajesile mu ilambo ya ku Silia ni ku Kilikia achalimbisyaga mipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito mu ilambo yo.
