Acts 20
1 But after the tumult had ceased, Paul having called the disciples to [him] and embraced [them], went away to go to Macedonia.
Bope rakati rapera, Pauro akadana vadzidzi, uye shure kwokuvakurudzira, akaonekana navo akasimuka akaenda kuMasedhonia.
2 And having passed through those parts, and having exhorted them with much discourse, he came to Greece.
Akafamba nomumatunhu ayo, achitaura mashoko mazhinji okukurudzira vanhu, uye pakupedzisira akazosvika kuGirisi,
3 And having spent three months [there], a treacherous plot against him having been set on foot by the Jews, as he was going to sail to Syria, [the] resolution was adopted of returning through Macedonia.
uko kwaakandogara kwemwedzi mitatu. Nokuda kwokuti vaJudha vakanga vaita rangano yakaipa pamusoro pake paakanga oda kukwira chikepe kuti aende kuSiria, akafunga kudzokerazve nokuMasedhonia.
4 And there accompanied him as far as Asia, Sopater [son] of Pyrrhus, a Berean; and of Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus, and Gaius and Timotheus of Derbe, and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.
Akaperekedzwa naSopata mwanakomana waPirasi wokuBheria, navanaAristakusi naSekundo, vaibva kuTesaronika, naGayo wokuDhebhe, naTimotiwo uye Tikikasi naTirofimasi vaibva mudunhu reEzhia.
5 These going before waited for us in Troas;
Varume ava vakatungamira vakandotimirira paTroasi.
6 but we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and we came to them to Troas in five days, where we spent seven days.
Asi takazokwira chikepe kubva kuFiripi shure kwoMutambo weZvingwa Zvisina Mbiriso, uye shure kwamazuva mashanu takazobatana navamwe paTroasi, apo patakazogara kwamazuva manomwe.
7 And the first day of the week, we being assembled to break bread, Paul discoursed to them, about to depart on the morrow. And he prolonged the discourse till midnight.
Nomusi wokutanga wevhiki takaungana pamwe chete kuti timedure chingwa. Pauro akataura kuvanhu uye, nokuda kwokuti akanga achida kuenda pazuva raitevera, akaramba achingotaura kusvikira pakati pousiku.
8 And there were many lights in the upper room where we were assembled.
Makanga mune mwenje mizhinji muimba yapamusoro matakanga tichisangana.
9 And a certain youth, by name Eutychus, sitting at the window-opening, overpowered by deep sleep, while Paul discoursed very much at length, having been overpowered by the sleep, fell from the third story down to the bottom, and was taken up dead.
Pawindo pakanga pagere jaya rainzi Yutiko, uyo akanga abatwa nehope chaizvo sezvo Pauro akanga achingoramba achitaura. Paakanga anyatsobatwa nehope akawira pasi achibva paimba yechitatu yapamusoro akazonongwa afa.
10 But Paul descending fell upon him, and enfolding [him] [in his arms], said, Be not troubled, for his life is in him.
Pauro akaburuka akasvikozviwisira pamusoro pejaya akamugumbatira mumaoko ake. Akati, “Musatya, mupenyu!”
11 And having gone up, and having broken the bread, and eaten, and having long spoken until daybreak, so he went away.
Ipapo akakwirazve paimba yapamusoro akamedura chingwa akadya. Shure kwokutaura navo kusvikira kwaedza, akazoenda hake.
12 And they brought [away] the boy alive, and were no little comforted.
Vanhu vakatora mujaya uya vakaenda naye kumusha ari mupenyu uye vakanyaradzwa zvikuru.
13 And we, having gone before on board ship, sailed off to Assos, going to take in Paul there; for so he had directed, he himself being about to go on foot.
Isu takatungamira nechikepe tikaenda kuAsosi, uko Pauro aizokwirawo chikepe. Akanga aronga izvi nokuti akanga achizoenda ikoko netsoka.
14 And when he met with us at Assos, having taken him on board, we came to Mitylene;
Paakasangana nesu paAsosi, takamukwidza tikapfuurira kuMitirene.
15 and having sailed thence, on the morrow arrived opposite Chios, and the next day put in at Samos; and having stayed at Trogyllium, the next day we came to Miletus:
Fume mangwana takamukapo nechikepe tikandosvika pakatarisana neKiyosi. Zuva rakatevera iroro takayambuka tikasvika kuSamosi, uye zuva rakatevera takasvika paMiretasi.
16 for Paul thought it desirable to sail by Ephesus, so that he might not be made to spend time in Asia; for he hastened, if it was possible for him, to be the day of Pentecost at Jerusalem.
Pauro akanga afunga zvokupfuura napaEfeso nechikepe achiitira kuti vasapedza nguva vari munyika yeEzhia nokuti akanga achimhanyira kusvika kuJerusarema, kana zvaibvira, nezuva rePendekosti.
17 But from Miletus having sent to Ephesus, he called over [to him] the elders of the assembly.
Pauro ari paMiretasi, akatumira shoko kuEfeso kundodana vakuru vekereke.
18 And when they were come to him, he said to them, Ye know how I was with you all the time from the first day that I arrived in Asia,
Vakati vasvika, akati kwavari, “Imi munoziva kuti ndakagara sei nemi panguva yose yandaiva nemi, kubvira pazuva rokutanga randakasvika munyika yeEzhia.
19 serving the Lord with all lowliness, and tears, and temptations, which happened to me through the plots of the Jews;
Ndakashumira Ishe nokuzvininipisa zvikuru uye nemisodzi, kunyange ndakaedzwa zvikuru nerangano dzavaJudha.
20 how I held back nothing of what is profitable, so as not to announce [it] to you, and to teach you publicly and in every house,
Munozviziva kuti handina kuzeza kuparidza kana chinhu chaizokubatsirai imi, asi ndakakudzidzisai pachena uye muimba neimba.
21 testifying to both Jews and Greeks repentance towards God, and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ndakapupura kuna vose vaJudha navaGiriki kuti vanofanira kudzokera kuna Mwari vagotendeuka uye vagotenda kuna Ishe Jesu.
22 And now, behold, bound in my spirit I go to Jerusalem, not knowing what things shall happen to me in it;
“Zvino ndamanikidzwa noMweya, ndiri kuenda kuJerusarema, ndisingazivi hangu zvichaitika kwandiri.
23 only that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city, saying that bonds and tribulations await me.
Chandinongoziva ndechokuti muguta rimwe nerimwe Mweya Mutsvene anondiyambira kuti kusungwa nokutambudzika zvakandirindira.
24 But I make no account of [my] life [as] dear to myself, so that I finish my course, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the glad tidings of the grace of God.
Zvisinei hazvo, ini handioni upenyu hwangu sechinhu chinokosha, dai bedzi ndapedza nhangemutange yangu uye ndapedzisa basa randakapiwa naIshe Jesu, basa rokupupura vhangeri renyasha dzaMwari.
25 And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone about preaching the kingdom [of God], shall see my face no more.
“Zvino ndinoziva kuti hakuna pakati penyu imi vandakafamba navo ndichiparidza vhangeri roushe achazondionazve.
26 Wherefore I witness to you this day, that I am clean from the blood of all,
Naizvozvo ndinotaura kwamuri nhasi kuti handina mhosva yeropa ravanhu vose.
27 for I have not shrunk from announcing to you all the counsel of God.
Nokuti handina kuzeza kukuparidzirai kuda kwose kwaMwari.
28 Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, wherein the Holy Spirit has set you as overseers, to shepherd the assembly of God, which he has purchased with the blood of his own.
Zvichenjererei imi pachenyu neboka rose ramakaitwa vatariri varo naMweya Mutsvene. Fudzai kereke yaMwari, yaakatenga neropa rake pachake.
29 [For] I know [this, ] that there will come in amongst you after my departure grievous wolves, not sparing the flock;
Ndinoziva kuti kana ndabva, mapere achapinda pakati penyu asingaregi boka.
30 and from among your own selves shall rise up men speaking perverted things to draw away the disciples after them.
Kunyange pakati penyu iyemi vanhu vachamuka vachiminamisa chokwadi vachiitira kuti vatape vadzidzi kuti vavatevere.
31 Wherefore watch, remembering that for three years, night and day, I ceased not admonishing each one [of you] with tears.
Saka rindai! Rangarirai kuti makore matatu handina kumborega kukuyambirai mumwe nomumwe wenyu, usiku namasikati nemisodzi.
32 And now I commit you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build [you] up and give [to you] an inheritance among all the sanctified.
“Zvino ndinokuisai kuna Mwari nokushoko renyasha dzake, iro rinogona kukuvakai uye richikupai nhaka pakati paavo vakaitwa vatsvene.
33 I have coveted [the] silver or gold or clothing of no one.
Handina kumbochiva sirivha yomunhu kana goridhe kana nguo yomunhu.
34 Yourselves know that these hands have ministered to my wants, and to those who were with me.
Imi munoziva pachenyu kuti maoko angu aya akabatira kushayiwa kwangu nokushayiwa kwavandaiva navo.
35 I have shewed you all things, that thus labouring [we] ought to come in aid of the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
Mune zvose zvandakaita, ndakakuratidzai kuti namabatiro akaoma aya, tinofanira kubatsira vasina simba, tichirangarira mashoko aShe Jesu pachake paakati, ‘Kupa kwakaropafadzwa kupfuura kugamuchira.’”
36 And having said these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
Akati ataura izvi, akapfugama pamwe chete navo vose uye vakanyengetera.
37 And they all wept sore; and falling upon the neck of Paul they ardently kissed him,
Vose vakachema pavakamumbundikira uye vakamutsvoda.
38 specially pained by the word which he had said, that they would no more see his face. And they went down with him to the ship.
Zvakanyanya kuvarwadza mashoko aakataura achiti havaizoona chiso chakezve. Ipapo vakamuperekedza kuchikepe.
