< Acts 14 >

1 At Iconium, Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish synagogue, where they spoke so well that a great number of Jews and Greeks believed.
Jhatokili mu Ikonio kujiha paulo ni Barnaba bhajhingili pamonga mu sinagogi lya Bhayahudi ni kulongela namana ambajho likundi libhaha lya bhanu Bhayahudi ni Bhayunani bhakyeriri.
2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers.
Lakini Bhayahudi bhabhalii bhabhachochili luhala bhamataifa ni kubhabhomba khujha bhbhibhi dhidi jha ndongo.
3 So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who affirmed the message of His grace by enabling them to perform signs and wonders.
Kwa hiyo bhatamili okhu kwa muda mrefu, bhaka jhabhilongela kwa ujasiri kwa ngofu, jha Bwana, kuni ipisya uthibitisho kuhusu ujumbe bhwa neema jha muene. Abhombi naha kwa kubhosya isshara ni maajabu fibhombibhwayi kwa mabhoko gha Paulo ni Barnaba.
4 The people of the city were divided. Some sided with the Jews, and others with the apostles.
Lakini lieneo libhaha lya mji lyagabhwanyiki baadhi jha bhanu bhajhele pamonga ni Bhayahudi ni baadhi pamonga ni mitume.
5 But when the Gentiles and Jews, together with their rulers, set out to mistreat and stone them,
Bwakati bhamataifa ni Bhayahudi bhobhajaribu kubhashawishi bhalongosi bha bhene kubhabhombela vibaya ni kubhaponda ni maganga Paulo ni Barnaba,
6 they found out about it and fled to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra and Derbe and to the surrounding region,
Bhakalimanya e'lu ni kujumbila mu miji ghya Likonia, Listra ni Derbe, ni maeneo ghaghisyongo'ka pala,
7 where they continued to preach the gospel.
ni okhu bhahubiri injili.
8 In Lystra there sat a man crippled in his feet, who was lame from birth and had never walked.
Ni okhu Listra pajhele ni munu mmonga jhaatameghe, ajhelepi ni ngofu mumagolo gha muene, kilema kuhomela mu lileme lya nyinamunu, abhwayilepi kugenda.
9 This man was listening to the words of Paul, who looked intently at him and saw that he had faith to be healed.
Munu ojho ampeliki Paulo ilongela. Paulo ankazili mihu ni kubhona ajhele ni imani jha kunyesibhwa.
10 In a loud voice Paul called out, “Stand up on your feet!” And the man jumped up and began to walk.
Hivyo ajobhili kwa muene kwa sauti mbaha, “Jhemayi kwa magolo gha jhobhi” Ni munu jhola aniki kunani ni kuyanda kugenda.
11 When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices in the Lycaonian language: “The gods have come down to us in human form!”
Bhumati bho bhubhwene kya abhombili Paulo bhajhinuili sauti sya bhene bhakajha bhijobha kwa lahaja jha kitikanio, “Miungu jhituselelili kwa namna jha binadamu.”
12 Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.
Bhan'kutili Barnaba “Zeu,” ni Paulo “Herme.” Kwa ndabha ajhele msemaji mbaha.
13 The priest of Zeus, whose temple was just outside the city, brought bulls and wreaths to the city gates, hoping to offer a sacrifice along with the crowds.
Kuhani ghwa Zeu, ambajhe hekalu lya muene lyajhele kwibhala ku mji aletili fahari la ng'ombe ni ntongo ghwa maua mpaka ku ndiangu ghwa mji muene ni umati bhalondeghe kuhomesya sadaka.
14 But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul found out about this, they tore their clothes and rushed into the crowd, shouting,
Lakini mitume, Barnaba ni Paulo, bho bhalipeliki e'le, bharaneili maguanda gha bhene manyata bhakalota kubhala ku umati bhilela.
15 “Men, why are you doing this? We too are only men, human like you. We are bringing you good news that you should turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made heaven and earth and sea and everything in them.
Ni kajobha, “Enyi bhanu, kwandayakiki mwibhomba mambo agha? ni tete kabhele twebha binadamu bhenye ligoga kama lya muenga. Tukabhaletela habari njema, kwamba mgeukayi kuhomela mu fiti efufya fitondikalepi ni kulota kwa K'yara jha ajhe hai jhaabhombi mbingu, dunia ni bahari ni khila khenu kyakijhele.
16 In past generations, He let all nations go their own way.
Mu nyakati sya silotili, abharuhuisi mataifa kugenda mu njela sya bhene.
17 Yet He has not left Himself without testimony to His goodness: He gives you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.”
Lakini bado abhokilepi bila shahidi, kwa e'lu abhombi kinofu na abhapelili fula kuhoma kumbinguni ni nyakati sya mazao akajhimemesya mioyo ghinu kwa fyakulya ni furaha.
18 Even with these words, Paul and Barnabas could hardly stop the crowds from sacrificing to them.
Hata kwa malobhi agha Paulo ni Barnaba kwa shida bhakauzuila umati kubhasopela sadaka.
19 Then some Jews arrived from Antioch and Iconium and won over the crowds. They stoned Paul and dragged him outside the city, presuming he was dead.
Lakini baadhi jha Bhayahudi kuhomela Antiokia ni Ikonio bhahidili kuushawishi umati. Bhan'homelili maganga Paulo ni kundundusya hadi kwibhala ku mji, bhakajha bhitegemela afuili.
20 But after the disciples had gathered around him, he got up and went back into the city. And the next day he left with Barnabas for Derbe.
Hata naha bhanafunzi bhajhele bhajhemili karibu nabhu ajhu muiki, bhakajhingila ku nyini. Ligono lya pili, alotili Derbe ni Barnaba.
21 They preached the gospel to that city and made many disciples. Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch,
Baada jha kumanyisya injili mu mjibhola ni kubhabhomba bhanafunzi bhamehele bhakerebhuiki Listra, hadi Ikoniamu, ni hadi Antiookia.
22 strengthening the souls of the disciples and encouraging them to continue in the faith. “We must endure many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” they said.
Bhajhendelili kuiman'sya nafsi sya bhanafunzi ni kupelibhwa muoyo kujhendelela mu imani, akajoobha, “Lazima tujhingilayi ku ufalme bhwa K'yara kwa kupetela malombosi ghamehele.
23 Paul and Barnabas appointed elders for them in each church, praying and fasting as they entrusted them to the Lord, in whom they had believed.
Bho bhabha teuili kwa ndabha jha bhene bhaseya kwa kila likusanyiku lya bhaaminio na bhakajha bhas'okili ni kufunga, bhabhakabidhi kwa Bwana, ambajhe bhene bhamwaminili.
24 After passing through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.
Kisha bhapelili kupisidia, bhafikili pamfilia.
25 And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.
Bhwakati bhalongili malobhi perga, bhaselili kulota Atalia.
26 From Attalia they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work they had just completed.
Kuhoma okhu bhakweli meli hadi Antiokia ambako bhajhele bhakihomisi kwa neema jha K'yara kwa ndabha jha mbombo ambayo henu bhajhele bhaikamilisi.
27 When they arrived, they gathered the church together and reported all that God had done through them, and how He had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.
Bhobhafikili okhu Antiokia, ni kulibhonganiya, likusanyiku lya pamonga, bhakapisya taarifa jha mambo ambagho K'yara agha bhombi kwa bhene, ni jinsi kya abhadendeilili ndiangu ghwa imani kwa bhanu bha mataifa.
28 And they spent a long time there with the disciples.
Bhatamili kwa muda mrefu ni bhanafunzi
