Acts 1
1 The former record I made, O Theophilus, of all things that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
Ikitabu ikyapakaliikyapakali nilyakilembile, Theofilo, nikajova soni sino alyasitenguile uYesu kuvomba na kuvulanisia,
2 till the day on which he was taken up, after he had, through the Holy Spirit, given commandments to the apostles whom he had chosen.
kudughila ikighono kino umwene alyapelilue kukianya. Uulu luliale yeluhumile ululaghilo kuhumila kw Mhepo mwimike kuvavulanesivua vano alyavasaluile.
3 To whom, after he had suffered, he also showed himself alive, by many indubitable proofs; appearing to them for forty days, and speaking of the things that pertain to the kingdom of God.
Ye sikilile imumuko sa Vene, umwene alyavonike kuvanave mwuumi kange na sising'ilisio nyinga sikoleleuagha. Mufighono fijigho fine alihufisiealihufisie kuvene, napikwolelela vumila isa vatwa va Nguluve
4 And calling them together, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of my Father, which, said he, you have heard from me;
Panorama akatang'anagha navope, pe akavalaghilagha kuti navangavukaghe mhu Yerusalemu, loli vaghulilaghe ulyalufingo lwa Nata, lino, alyatile, “Mulyapulike kuhuma kuliune
5 for John indeed immersed in water, but you shall be immersed in the Holy Spirit, not many days hence.
kuti uYohanauYohana aliofuighe ulyofugho lwa malenga, loli umue mkwofughuagha nhu Mhepo mwimike mofighono fififii fidebe.”
6 Therefore, when they came together, they asked him, saying: Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?
Pano ye vakong'anile palikimo valyamposisie, “Mutwa, kwekuti ku uulu ghilikuvagomokesia avanhu va Israeli uvutwa?”
7 But he said to them: It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has reserved under his own control.
Umwene akavavula akaati, “nalunoghile kuliumue kukagula amasiki Ghana uNata afumbilue kuvatavulilua va mwene jujuo.”
8 But you shall receive power, after the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be witnesses for me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and to the most distant part of the earth.
Loli mukupila ingufu, unsiki ghuno ilikwisa kuliumue uMhepo umwimike; umue muliva volesi vango kuoni muYerusalem name muYahudi mwoni ni Samaria na kuvusililokuvusililo vwa iisi.”
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they were looking on him, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight.
U Mutwa Yesu yamalile kujova isi, avenue yevilola kukyanya, umwene akanyanyulivua kukianya, ilifunde likakupikila valeke kumuagha name Mason ghavanave.
10 And while they were looking earnestly toward heaven, as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white raiment,
Pano vakalolagha kukyanya nhuvusyukue yeiluta, nakalingi, avanhu vavili valyiima pakati name Kati pavanave vafwalile amanda amavalafu.
11 who also said: Men of Galilee, why stand you gazing up into heaven? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, shall come in the same manner in which you saw him go into heaven.
Vakati, “Umue me vanhu va mugalilaya, lwakiiki mwimile apa mulola kukyanya?” U Yesu uju Juno atoghile kukyanya iligomoka lulalula ndavule mumbwene iluta kukyanya.
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a sabbath-day’s journey.
Pepano vakagomoka kuhuma kukidunda kya mizeituni, kind kilipipi nii Yerusalem, ulughendo ulwa kighono ikya sabati.
13 And when they had come in, they went up into an upper room, in which dwelt Peter and James, and John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphæus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.
Ye vafikilevafikile vakaluta kugholofa kuno vakikalagha. Vope veva Ptro, Yohana, Yakobo, Andrea, Filipino, Thomas, Batholomayo, Matayo, Yakobo, Mwana wa Afayo, Simon Zelote, nhu Yuda Mwana wa Yakobo.
14 All these, with one mind, continued in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
Voni vakakolana aka huana munhu jumbo, ningufu vakaghendelela ni nyifunyo. Palikimo na vope pevaliale avakimama, Maliamu ung'ina ghwa Yesu na valumbu va mwene.
15 And in those days Peter arose in the midst of the disciples, (the number of the names together was about a hundred and twenty, ) and said:
Mufighono fila uPetro akima pakate nakate navanyalukolo avanhu kilundo kimo night fijigho fivili, akati,
16 Brethren, it was necessary for this scripture to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit had before spoken by the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who was a guide to those who took Jesus:
Vanyalukolo, lulyanoghile Kati amalembe ghakwilanilaghe pano pakali uMhepo mwimike akajovelagha muloomo ghwa Daudi ulwakuling'ana nhu Yuda, alyamendime kuvala vano valya n'kolile uYesu.
17 for he was numbered with us, and had been appointed to this ministry.
Ulwakuva umwene alyale njiitu alyiupile ikighelelo kya mwene mumboo jiitu iiji.”
18 Therefore he purchased a field with the reward of his iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
(lino umunhu uju alyaghulile ikivanja kind aliipile nhuvuhosi vwa mwene apuo pe akaghwisagha akalongosiagha umutu, umbili ghukadendemuka namaleme ghakakung'ika niiki ghakava pavugholofu.
19 And it was known to all that dwelt in Jerusalem, so that the field is called, in their own language, Akeldama, that is, The field of blood.
Voni vanovakakilagha muYerusalemu valyasipulike soni isi, pe ikivanja ikio pevakakipela kunjovele javanave “Akelidama”ughu ghwe “mughunda ghwa Dana.”)
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no one dwell in it, and, His office let another take.
“Mukitabu kya Zaburi lilembilue, 'ghuula umughunda ghuake ghuva wa kuhama kwejeje name jumonga nangikalaghe Pala;' name, 'Tavulile umunhu ujunge atole inafasi jamwene ijavulongosi.'
21 Therefore, of these men who have associated with us during the whole time in which the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Uluo lwakyang'ani, lino, jumbo umughosi vakavingilisaniagha pano uMutwa Yesu alyahumile napikwingila muliusue,
22 beginning from the immersion of John till the day on which he was taken up from us, must one be appointed as a witness with us of his resurrection.
kutengulila kulwofugho lwa Yohana kufika ikighono Kira kinda akatolwagha kukyanya, anoghile piva mwolesi ghwa lusyiuko palikimopalikimo nusue.
23 And they set apart two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias;
“Vakavavika pavulongolo avaghosi vaviili, Yusufu Juno akatambulivugha Balinaba, junoghuope akatambulivagha Yusto nhu Maria.
24 and praying, they said: Thou, Lord, who knowest the hearts of all, make known which of these two thou hast chosen,
Avene vakifunyagha vakatisagha, “Uve, Mutwa, ghwejuno ukagwile amojo gha vanhu voni, tuvikiile pavugholofu ghwe Venice muvanhu avaviili Juno usaluile.
25 that he may be appointed to this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.
Uwakuhala imbombo ija vwomolia jino akajile uYuda Juno akahokile ghwejuno ahaliile papa mwene.”
26 And they gave in their lots, and the lot fell on Matthias: and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Vakavatovela ikuura vavuo, ni kura jikamughwila Mathia wejuno akavalilua palikimo na vasung'wa kijigho najumo.
