Acts 13
1 Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen (who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch), and Saul.
Nambeambe katika likanisa lya Antiokia, pabile na baadhi ya manabii na baalimu. Babile Barnaba, Simeoni(ywakemwa Nigeri). Lukio ba Kirene, Manaeni (nongowe abile wa myai kwaa Herode kiongozi wa mkoa), na Sauli.
2 While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”
Pababile bakimwabudu Ngwana na kufunga, Roho Mtakatifu kabaya, “Munitengee pembeni Barnaba na Sauli, baipange kazi yaanibakemule kuipanga.”
3 And after they had fasted and prayed, they laid their hands on them and sent them off.
Baada ya likanisa kufunga, kuloba na kubeka maboko gabe nnani ya bandu aba, batibaleka bayende.
4 So Barnabas and Saul, sent forth by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia and sailed from there to Cyprus.
Kwa eyo Barnaba na Sauli batimweshimu Roho Mtakatifu na batiuluka kuelekea Seleukia; boka kolyo balisafiri mu'bahari kuyenda kisiwa cha Kipro.
5 When they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the Jewish synagogues. And John was with them as their helper.
Pababile katika mji ba Salami, batilitangaza neno lya Nnongo mu'masinagogi ga Ayahudi. Babile pamope ni Yohana Marko kati msaidizi wabe.
6 They traveled through the whole island as far as Paphos, where they found a Jewish sorcerer and false prophet named Bar-Jesus,
Pabayenda mu'kisiwa chote mpaka Pafo, bakwembine na mundu fulani mwaabe, Myahudi nabii wa ubocho, ambaye lina lyake lyabile Bar Yesu.
7 an attendant of the proconsul, Sergius Paulus. The proconsul, a man of intelligence, summoned Barnabas and Saul because he wanted to hear the word of God.
Mwaabe yolo atishirikiana na Liwali Sergio Paulus, ywabile mundu ywaabile na malango. Mundu yolo atibaarika Barnaba na Sauli, kwa mana atipala kuliyowa neno lya Nnongo.
8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for that is what his name means) opposed them and tried to turn the proconsul from the faith.
Lakini Elima “yolo mwaabe” (alee nga lina lyake lyatitafsiriwa) atibapinga; ajaribie kumgeuza yolo liwali aboke mu'imani.
9 Then Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked directly at Elymas
Lakini Sauli ywakemwa Paulo, abile atijazwa na Roho Mtakatifu, kamtumbulya minyo
10 and said, “O child of the devil and enemy of all righteousness, you are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery! Will you never stop perverting the straight ways of the Lord?
no baya “Wenga wa mwana wa ibilisi, utwelilwe na aina zote za udanganyifu na udhaifu. Wenga ni adui wa kila aina ya haki. Ukoma kwaa kuzigeuza ndela za Ngwana, zazinyoka, je walowa weza?
11 Now look, the hand of the Lord is against you, and for a time you will be blind and unable to see the light of the sun.” Immediately mist and darkness came over him, and he groped about, seeking someone to lead him by the hand.
Nambeambe linga, luboko lwa Ngwana libile nnani yako, na upangika ipofu. Walowa libonekeya kwaa liumu kwa muda”mara yimo ukungu na libendo lyatomboka nnani ya Elimas; atumbwi zunguka palyo aaloba bandu bamwongoze kwa kunkamwa luboko.
12 When the proconsul saw what had happened, he believed, for he was astonished at the teaching about the Lord.
Baada ya liwali kubona chakipangike, aaminiya, kwa mana atishangala kwa mapundisho kuhusu Ngwana.
13 After setting sail from Paphos, Paul and his companions came to Perga in Pamphylia, where John left them to return to Jerusalem.
Nambeambe Paulo na mbwiga bake batisafiri mu'mase boka Pafo na baikite Perge katika Pamfilia. Lakini Yohana abalekite na kukerebuka Yerusalemu.
14 And from Perga, they traveled inland to Pisidian Antioch, where they entered the synagogue on the Sabbath and sat down.
Paulo ni mbwiga wake batisafiri na baikite Antiokia ya Pisidia. Kolyo batiyenda mu'lisinagogi lisoba lya Sabato na tama pae.
15 After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the synagogue leaders sent word to them: “Brothers, if you have a word of encouragement for the people, please speak.”
Baada ya kuisoma saliya ya manabii, viongozi ba lisinagogi batumite ujumbe kababaya, “Alongo, mana mubile na ujumbe wa kutia mwoyo bandu pano, muubaye”
16 Paul stood up, motioned with his hand, and began to speak: “Men of Israel and you Gentiles who fear God, listen to me!
Kwa eyo Paulo kayema na kubapungia luboko; kabaya, “Analome ba Israeli na mwenga mwamuheshimia Nnongo, sikilizeni.
17 The God of the people of Israel chose our fathers. He made them into a great people during their stay in Egypt, and with an uplifted arm He led them out of that land.
Nnongo wa aba bandu ba Israeli awachawi tate bitu na kuwapanga bandu banyansima batami katika nchi Misri, na kwa luboko lwake kuinuliwa na kubakengama panja yake.
18 He endured their conduct for about forty years in the wilderness.
Kwa miaka arobaini atibavumilia mu'lijangwa.
19 And having vanquished seven nations in Canaan, He gave their land to His people as an inheritance.
Baada ya kugaharibia mataifa saba katika nchi ya Kaanani, abapeya bandu bitu nchi yabe kwa urithi.
20 All this took about 450 years. After this, God gave them judges until the time of Samuel the prophet.
Matendo aga gote gapangike zaidi ya miaka mia ncheche na hamsini. Baada ya ilebe yelo yote, Nnongo abapeile baamuzi mpaka Samweli nabii.
21 Then the people asked for a king, and God gave them forty years under Saul son of Kish, from the tribe of Benjamin.
Baada ya aga, bandu batinloba mpwalume, nga nyoo Nnongo abapea Sauli mwana wa Kishi, mundu wa likabila lya Benjamini, kuwa mpwalume kwa miaka arobaini.
22 After removing Saul, He raised up David as their king and testified about him: ‘I have found David son of Jesse a man after My own heart; he will carry out My will in its entirety.’
Boka po baada ya Nnongo kumwondoa mpwalume, atimwinua Daudi kuwa mplwalume wabe. Ibile ni kuhusu Daudi panga Nnongo kabaya, “Nimpatike Daudi mwana wa Yese kiwa mundu ywaapendezwaye na mwoyo wango; ambaye alowa panga kila kilebe chanikipendile.'
23 From the descendants of this man, God has brought to Israel the Savior Jesus, as He promised.
Boka mu'ukoo ba mundu yolo Nnongo atiiletya Israeli mkochopoli, Yesu, kati yaatiahidi kupanga.
24 Before the arrival of Jesus, John preached a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
Alee litumbwile pangika, kabla ya Yesu kuisa, Yohana kwanza atitangaza ubatizo wa toba kwa bandu bote ba Israeli.
25 As John was completing his course, he said, ‘Who do you suppose I am? I am not that One. But He is coming after me whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.’
Ni ywembe Yohana paabile atimaliza kazi yake, abayite,'Mwawaza nenga na nyai? nenga na yolo kwaa. Lakini muisikilize, yolo ywaisa kunchogo yango, nastahili kwaa hata legeza ilatu ya magolo gake.'
26 Brothers, children of Abraham, and you Gentiles who fear God, it is to us that this message of salvation has been sent.
Alongo, bana ba ukolo ba Abrahamu, na balo ambao kati yinu mwamwabudu Nnongo, ni kwa ajili yitu panga ujumbe woo wa ukombozi utumilwe.
27 The people of Jerusalem and their rulers did not recognize Jesus, yet in condemning Him they fulfilled the words of the prophets that are read every Sabbath.
Kwa balo batama Yerusalemu, ba batawala babe, bantangite kwa kwa uhalisia, na wala bautangite kwaa ujumbe ba manabii abao husomwa kila Sabato; kwa eyo batiutimiza ujumbe wa manabii kwa kumhukumu kiwo Yesu.
28 And though they found no ground for a death sentence, they asked Pilate to have Him executed.
Japokuwa bapatike kwaa sababu inoite kwa kiwo nkati yake, batinloba Pilato amulage.
29 When they had carried out all that was written about Him, they took Him down from the tree and laid Him in a tomb.
Payomwile makowe gote yaandikilwe kuhusu ywembe, batiuuluya yega yake boka mu'nkongo na kagonja mu'likaburi.
30 But God raised Him from the dead,
Lakini Nnongo atimfufua boka kwa bandu ba kiwo.
31 and for many days He was seen by those who had accompanied Him from Galilee to Jerusalem. They are now His witnesses to our people.
Atibonekana kwa masoba ganyansima kwa balo bayenda pamope ni ywembe boka Galilaya yenda Yerusalemu. Bandu aba nambeambe nga mashaidi ba bandu.
32 And now we proclaim to you the good news: What God promised our fathers
Nga nyo twaletya habari njema kuhusu ahadi yawapeilwe apindo bitu.
33 He has fulfilled for us, their children, by raising up Jesus. As it is written in the second Psalm: ‘You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.’
Nnongo abekite ahadi yee kwitu, bana babe, katika lee atimfufua Yesu na kukerebuka kae katika ukoto. Alee liandikilwe kae katika Zaburi ya pili;'Wenga mwana wango, leno nibile Tate bako'
34 In fact, God raised Him from the dead, never to see decay. As He has said: ‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings promised to David.’
Kuhusu ukweli ni panga atimfufua boka mu'kiwo ili panga yega yake uharibike kwaa, atilongela nyoo:'Nalowa kukupeya utakatifu na baraza halisi za Daudi'
35 So also, He says in another Psalm: ‘You will not let Your Holy One see decay.’
Ayee nga sababu abaya katika Zaburi yenge,'Huruhusu kwaa mtakatifuwako kuubonekeya uozo.”
36 For when David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep. His body was buried with his fathers and saw decay.
Kwa mana baada ya Daudi tumikiya mapenzi ga Nnongo katika ubeleki wake, agonjike, atigonja pamope na tate bake, na aubweni uharibifu,
37 But the One whom God raised from the dead did not see decay.
Lakini ywafufuliwe na Nnongo aubweni kwaa uharibifu.
38 Therefore let it be known to you, brothers, that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.
Nga nyoo iyowanike kwinu, alongo, pitya mundu yolo, msamaha wa sambi watihubiriwa.
39 Through Him everyone who believes is justified from everything you could not be justified from by the law of Moses.
Kwa ywembe kila aminiye abalangilwa haki na makowe yote ambayo saliya ya Musa yawapeya kwaa.
40 Watch out, then, that what was spoken by the prophets does not happen to you:
Nga nyo bai mube baangalifu panga kilebe saakilongela manabii kana kiboke kwinu.
41 ‘Look, you scoffers, wonder and perish! For I am doing a work in your days that you would never believe, even if someone told you.’”
'Linga, mwenga mubile na dharau, na mwamushangala na kuangamiya; kwa mana napanga kazi katika masoba yinu, Kazi ambayo mwaweza kwaa kuiamnia, hata mana mundu alowa kubaeleza.”
42 As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people urged them to continue this message on the next Sabbath.
Muda Paulo na Barnaba babokite, bandu baalobite balongele maneno aga lisoba lya Sabato yenge.
43 After the synagogue was dismissed, many of the Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who spoke to them and urged them to continue in the grace of God.
Muda mkutano wa lisinagogi pauyomwile thabiti batibakengama Paulo na Barnaba, ambao batilongela nabo na babahimiza bayendelee katika neema ya Nnongo.
44 On the following Sabbath, nearly the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord.
Sabato yenge, karibu mji mzima watikwembana kulisikiliza lineno lya Nnongo.
45 But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy, and they blasphemously contradicted what Paul was saying.
Bayahudi paababweni makutano, batolilwe ni wivu na longela maneno yagapinga ilebe yatilongelwa na Paulo na kuntukana.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas answered them boldly: “It was necessary to speak the word of God to you first. But since you reject it and do not consider yourselves worthy of eternal life, we now turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
Lakini Paulo na Barnaba batilongela kwa ujasiri no baya, “Ibile muhimu panga neno lya Nnongo lilongelwa kwanza kwinu. Kwa mana mwatilisukumiya kutalu boka kwinu nakuibona kuwa mwastahili kwaa ukoto wangayomoka, mulinge twalowakerebukya Mataifa. (aiōnios g166)
47 For this is what the Lord has commanded us: ‘I have made you a light for the Gentiles, to bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’”
Kati ambavyo Ngwana atituamuru, kabaya,'Niabekite mwenga kati bweya kwa bandu ba mataifa, panga mlete wokovu kwa pande zote za dunia.”
48 When the Gentiles heard this, they rejoiced and glorified the word of the Lord, and all who were appointed for eternal life believed. (aiōnios g166)
Mataifa pabayowine lee, batipuraika na kulisifu neno lya Ngwana. Baingi batichauliwa kwa ukoto wangayomoka baliaminia. (aiōnios g166)
49 And the word of the Lord spread throughout that region.
Neno lya Ngwana lilienea nchi yote.
50 The Jews, however, incited the religious women of prominence and the leading men of the city. They stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas and drove them out of their district.
Lakini Ayahudi batibasihi baliojitoa na anwawa muhimu, na viongozi wa mji. Aga yalichochea mateso dhidi ya Paulo na Barnaba na baliatupa panja ya mipaka ya mji.
51 So they shook the dust off their feet in protest against them and went to Iconium.
Lakini Paulo na Barnaba batikung'uta vumbi lya magolo gabe. Boka po batiyenda katika mji wa Ikonia.
52 And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
Na banafunzi batweliwe na furaha pamope na Roho Mtakatifu.
