Acts 15
1 Then some men came down from Judea and were teaching the brothers, “Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.”
Bhai, gubhaikengenenje bhandunji ku Antiokia kopokanga ku Yudea gubhatandubhenje kwaajiganyanga bhakilishitu kuti, “Ibhaga nkajalukanje malinga shiilugwilwe Mmalajilo ga a Musha nkatapulwanga.”
2 And after engaging these men in sharp debate, Paul and Barnabas were appointed, along with some other believers, to go up to Jerusalem to see the apostles and elders about this question.
Lyene lilobhelyo lyashinkukumbuya ntau gwankulungwa. A Pauli na a Bhanabha bhakataukanganeje na bhandunji bhala, gwiamulishwe kuti, a Pauli na a Bhanabha na bhandunji bhananji bha a Nnungu bha ku Antiokia bhajendangananje ku Yelushalemu bhakabhonegananje na mitume na bhanangulungwa ga jene nganijo.
3 Sent on their way by the church, they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, recounting the conversion of the Gentiles and bringing great joy to all the brothers.
Bhai, bhakatumwanjeje na bhandunji bha a Nnungu, gubhapitilenje pakati shilambo sha Poinike na ku Shamalia, akuno bhalilunguyanga ngani ja bhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi shibhashite kwaatendebhushilanga a Nnungu, jene nganijo gujaanonyelenje kwa kaje bhakilishitu bhowe.
4 On their arrival in Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and apostles and elders, to whom they reported all that God had done through them.
Bhakaikangananjeje ku Yelushalemu gubhaposhelwenje na bhandunji bha a Nnungu na mitume na bhanangulungwa, na bhalabhonji gubhaatalashiyenje yowe ibhatendile a Nnungu pamo na bhanganyabho.
5 But some believers from the party of the Pharisees stood up and declared, “The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to obey the law of Moses.”
Ikabheje bhakilishitu bhananji bha nkumbi gwa Mapalishayo gubhajimingenenje bhalinkutinji, “Inapinjikwa bhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi bhajalukanje nkukaguya Shalia ja a Musha.”
6 So the apostles and elders met to look into this matter.
Bhai, mitume na bhanangulungwa gubhatemingenenje lukumbi bhaliganishiyanje lilobhelyo.
7 After much discussion, Peter got up and said to them, “Brothers, you know that in the early days God made a choice among you that the Gentiles would hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe.
Nkungulu ukalonjeyeje, a Petili gubhajimi, nigubhashite, “Ashaapwetu, mmanganyanji mmumanyinji kuti kuumila ndandubho a Nnungu bhashinkupinga kung'agula nne kukopoka munkumbi gwenunji nunguye Ngani ja Mmbone kubhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi, nkupinga bhapilikananje na kulupalila.
8 And God, who knows the heart, showed His approval by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as He did to us.
Na bhalabho a Nnungu bhanakujimanya mitima ja bhandunji, gubhakong'ondele kuti bhaapinjilenje, kwa kwaapanganga Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo malinga shibhatupele uwe.
9 He made no distinction between us and them, for He cleansed their hearts by faith.
Wala bhangaagula uwe na bhanganyabho, bhashikujitakaya mitima jabhonji kwa ngulupai.
10 Now then, why do you test God by placing on the necks of the disciples a yoke that neither we nor our fathers have been able to bear?
Bhai nnaino, kwa nndi nnakwaalinganga a Nnungu kwa kwaatwikanga bhandunji mitenga jibhalepelenje kujigala ashainabhetu, nkali uwe twashinkulepela jigala.
11 On the contrary, we believe it is through the grace of the Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.”
Ikabhe putukulupalila kuti shitutapulwe kwa ntuka gwa Bhakulungwa a Yeshu malinga bhanganyabho.”
12 The whole assembly fell silent as they listened to Barnabas and Paul describing the signs and wonders God had done among the Gentiles through them.
Bhai, bhandunji bhowe pa lukumbi pala, gubhatemingenenje ilili, nkwaapilikanishiyanga a Bhanabha na a Pauli bhalitalashiyanga ga ilangulo na ilapo ibhatendile a Nnungu kwa makono gabhonji kubhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi.
13 When they had finished speaking, James declared, “Brothers, listen to me!
A Bhanabha na Pauli bhakapumulanjeje kutalashiya, a Yakobho gubhatandwibhe kubheleketa bhalinkuti, “Ashaapwanga mmbilikanishiyanje!
14 Simon has told us how God first visited the Gentiles to take from them a people to be His own.
A Shimoni guna bhashemwaga a Petili bhatutalashiye, bhukalago a Nnungu shibhaashite languya kwaapinganga bhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi, gubhaagwilenje bhananji munkumbi gwabhonjimo bhabhanganje bhandu bhabho.
15 The words of the prophets agree with this, as it is written:
Na malobhe ga ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu ganatolana na jene nganiji, malinga shiijandikwe Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo,
16 ‘After this I will return and rebuild the fallen tent of David. Its ruins I will rebuild, and I will restore it,
‘Gapitaga genega shimuje, na shinjenje kabhili ku nyumba jibhomweshe ja a Daudi, shing'alaye maame gakwe nishenga kabhili.
17 so that the remnant of men may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who are called by My name, says the Lord who does these things
Nkupinga bhandunji bhaigelenje, na bha ilambo ina bhaashemwanga kwa lina lyangu, bhaaloleyanje Bhakulungwa.
Bhakulungwa bhashite, bhatendile genega gamanyishe kuumila bhukala.’ (aiōn g165)
19 It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not cause trouble for the Gentiles who are turning to God.
“Kwa nneyo, nne ngunatenda nnei, tunaabhuyanje bhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi bhakwaatendebhushilanga a Nnungu.
20 Instead, we should write and tell them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals, and from blood.
Ikabhe twaajandishilanje bhaluwa kuti bhanalyanganje yalya yanyata ya mbepei ya ashinnungu bha yanamu, bhaiepuyanje na labhalabha, bhanataunanje nnyama yawa shibhudu na bhanalyanganje minyai.
21 For Moses has been proclaimed in every city from ancient times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.”
Pabha kuumila bhukala bhapalinji bhandu bhalunguyanga Malajilo ga a Musha na ganashomwa nnyumba ya jujila Nnungu kila lyubha lya pumulila.”
22 Then the apostles and elders, with the whole church, decided to select men from among them to send to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They chose Judas called Barsabbas and Silas, two leaders among the brothers,
Bhai, mitume na bhandunji bhowe bha a Nnungu na bhanangulungwa bhabhonji gubhaagwilenje bhandunji kukopoka munkumbi gwabhonji bhaatumanje kwenda ku Antiokia na a Pauli na a Bhanabha. Bhai, gubhaagwilenje a Yuda guna pubhashemwaga a Bhalishabha na a Shila bhowenji bhandunji bha manyika munkumbi gwa bhakilishitu.
23 and sent them with this letter: The apostles and the elders, your brothers, To the brothers among the Gentiles in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: Greetings.
Gubhaakamuyenje bhaluwa jajandikwe nnei, “Uwe twaashapwenunji, mitume na bhanangulungwa, shalamu yenunji mwashaapwetu bha ilambo ina nninginji ku Antiokia na ku Shilia na ku Kilikia.
24 It has come to our attention that some went out from us without our authorization and unsettled you, troubling your minds by what they said.
Tupilikene kuti bhandunji bhananji bha kopoka kunngwetu kuno bhashikumpuganyanga kwa malobhe gabhonji, nikumpanganga lipamba mmitima jenunji. Ikabheje akuno jwakwa abhatumilenje.
25 So we all agreed to choose men to send to you along with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
Kwa nneyo tushitama pamo nilagana twaagulanje bhandu twaatumanje bhajiyangananje kweneko na ashaambwiga ajetunji a Bhanabha na a Pauli,
26 men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
bhandunji bhaikakatimilenje gumi gwabhonji kwa ligongo lya liengo lya a Yeshu Kilishitu.
27 Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas to tell you in person the same things we are writing.
Bhai, twaatumilenje a Yuda na a Shila shibhammalanjilanje kwa kang'wa yabhonji gutujandishe gano.
28 It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond these essential requirements:
Pabha Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo na uwe tushibhona sha mmbone tunantwikanje mishigo ikabhe gene gapinjikwa gala.
29 You must abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality. You will do well to avoid these things. Farewell.
Yani, nnalyanganje nnyama ibhishilwe mbepei kuyanamu, nnapapilanje minyai na nnalyangaanje nnyama yawa shibhudu, mwiepuyanje na labhalabha. Shintendanje mwammbone mwiepuyangaga na yeneyo. Mwanjangana!”
30 So the men were sent off and went down to Antioch, where they assembled the congregation and delivered the letter.
Mitume bhala bhakalajilwanjeje, gubhaelelenje kuloya ku Antiokia. Kweneko gubhashemilenje lugwinjili lwa bhakilishitu gubhaapelenje bhaluwa jila.
31 When the people read it, they rejoiced at its encouraging message.
Bhakashomanjeje bhaluwa jila, malobhe gakwe gakwaataganga ntima niguyaanonyelenje kwa kaje.
32 Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, said much to encourage and strengthen the brothers.
Bhai a Yuda na a Shila, pabha na bhalabhonji pubhalinginji ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu, gubhakungulukenje nabhonji kwa malobhe gamagwinji bhalikwaataganga ntima na kwaashimilikanga.
33 After spending some time there, they were sent off by the brothers in peace to return to those who had sent them.
Na bhakatamanganeje kweneko kwa mobha gashoko, bhakilishitu bha ku Antiokia bhakwalajilangaga akuno bhalikwajujilanga ulele, kungai gubhabhujilengene kubhandunji bhaatumilenje.
Ikabheje a Shila gubhabhweni shammbone bhatame koko.
35 But Paul and Barnabas remained at Antioch, along with many others, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord.
A Pauli na a Bhanabha gubhatemingenenje ku Antiokia kwa mobha, bhalijiganyanga na lunguya lilobhe lya Bhakulungwa pamo na bhandunji bhana bhabhagwinji.
36 Some time later Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us go back and visit the brothers in every town where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, to see how they are doing.”
Gakapiteje mobha gashoko, a Pauli gubhaabhalanjile a Bhanabha, “Tubhuje tukaowelanje ashaapwetu kila shilambo shitulungwiye lilobhe lya Bhakulungwa, tukaalolanje bhalinginji bhuli.”
37 Barnabas wanted to take John, also called Mark.
A Bhanabha gubhapinjile bhalongane nabhonji a Yowana bhaashemwa a Maliko.
38 But Paul thought it best not to take him, because he had deserted them in Pamphylia and had not accompanied them in the work.
Ikabheje a Pauli bhangapinga kulongana na a Maliko, pabha ku Pampilia bhashinkwaalekenga nikana kulongana nabhonji kuliengo lyabhonji.
39 Their disagreement was so sharp that they parted company. Barnabas took Mark and sailed for Cyprus,
Bhai, gubhataukengenenje kwa punda, mpaka gubhalekenenje. A Bhanabha gubhaatolile a Maliko, gubhakwelilenje meli kwenda ku Shilia.
40 but Paul chose Silas and left, commended by the brothers to the grace of the Lord.
Ikabheje a Pauli gubhaagwile a Shila, bhakilishitu bha penepo bhakaajujilanjeje mboka ja Bhakulungwa, gubhajabhwile.
41 And he traveled through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches.
Gwene mwanjago gubhapitile ku Shilia na ku Kilikia, bhalipita shimilika bhandunji bha a Nnungu.
