Acts 18
1 After these things, departing from Athens, he came to Corinth.
Ze yakilaa imakani nanso, uPaulo ai uhegile ku Athene kulongola ku Korintho.
2 And finding a certain Jew, named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with Priscilla his wife, (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome, ) he came to them.
Uko akamulija Muyahudi nuitangwaa Akwila muntu nua kabila nila Ponto, ung'wenso nu musungu nuakwe nuitangwaa Prisila ai apembilye kupuma uko ku Italia, ku nsoko uKlaudia ai ulagiiye i Ayahudi ihi ahege ku Roma; uPaulo akapembya kitalao;
3 And because he was of the same trade, he remained with them, and wrought; (now they were tentmakers by trade.)
uPaulo akikie nu kituma i milimo ni enso kunsoko nuanso witumaa mulimo nuipyani niyi nao. Enso ai iza azepya mahema.
4 And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, bringing in the name of the Lord Jesus; and he persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.
uPaulo akitambulya ni enso mi itekeelo kila luhiku nula kusupya. Ai uapemile i Ayahudi palung'wi ni Agiriki.
5 And when Silas and Timothy were come from Macedonia, Paul was earnest in preaching, testifying to the Jews, that Jesus is the Christ.
Kuiti uSila nu Timotheo nai akapembya kupuma ku Makedonia, uPaulo ai usuntilwe nu Ng'wau Ngwelu kua kuiila i Ayahudi kina uYesu yuyo Kristo.
6 But they gainsaying and blaspheming, he shook his garments, and said to them: Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.
Matungo i Ayahudi nai amukua nu kumukuna, iti uPaulo wikapununta u ng'wenda nuakwe ntongeela ao, nu kuatambuila, “Sakami anyu ni itule migulya a matwe anyu akola; Unene nimugila ikinkwaatya. kupuma itungili nu kulongoleka, kuahanga i anyaingu.”
7 And departing thence, he entered into the house of a certain man, named Titus Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house was adjoining to the synagogue.
Iti gwa akahega kupuma pang'wanso akalongola mi ito nilang'wa Tito Yusto, Muntu nai wimukulya Itunda. Ito nilakwe ai likoli pakupi ni itekeelo.
8 And Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing, believed, and were baptized.
uKrispo, mutongeeli nu itekeelo palung'wi ni antu a mi ito nilakwe akamuhuiila uMukulu. Antu idu nia ku Korintho nai amigulye uPaulo ukuligitya ai ahuiie nu kogigwa.
9 And the Lord said to Paul in the nights, by a vision: Do not fear, but speak; and hold not thy peace,
uMukulu akamutambuila uPaulo utiku kukiila ku nzila a muloto, “Leka kogopa, kuiti ligitya hangi leka kukilaga.
10 Because I am with thee: and no man shall set upon thee, to hurt thee; for I have much people in this city.
Ku iti unene nkoli palung'wi nu ewe, hangi kutili nuikagema kuumela, ndogoelyo nkete antu idu mu kisali iki.”
11 And he stayed there a year and six months, teaching among them the word of God.
uPaulo akikie kuko ku itungo la ng'waka ung'wi ni myeli mutandatu wazemanyisa lukani nulang'wa Itunda mukati ao.
12 But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,
Kuiti uGalio nai wakatendwa muhumi nua ku Akaya, Ayahudi ai imikile palung'wi nsuta nu Paulo nu kumutwala ntongeela a ituntu nila ulamuli,
13 Saying: This man persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.
aze ligitya, “uMuntu uyu wiapemaa i antu kumukulya Itunda nsuta ni malagiilyo.”
14 And when Paul was beginning to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews: If it were some matter of injustice, or an heinous deed, O Jews, I should with reason bear with you.
Matungo uPaulo nai wakatula uloilwe kuligitya, uGalio aka atambuila i Ayahudi, “Unyenye Ayahudi, anga aza itule utumuli ang'wi ubipya, aza izeetula tai kuitumila u mulimo.
15 But if they be questions of word and names, and of your law, look you to it: I will not be judge of such things.
Kuiti ku nsoko ingi makolyo, natulikile imakani ni mina, ni malagiilyo anyu, uugwa lamuli nyenye akola. Unene nimugila insula kutula mulamuli ku nkani nia makani nanso.”
16 And he drove them from the judgment seat.
uGalio akalagiilya ahege ntongeela ituntu nila ulamuli.
17 And all laying hold on Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, beat him before the judgment seat; and Gallio cared for none of those things.
Iti gwa, akamuamba uSosthene, mutongeeli nu itekeelo, akamukua ntongeela ituntu nila ulamuli. Kuiti uGalio shanga ai ukee nai akitumile.
18 But Paul, when he had stayed yet many days, taking his leave of the brethren, sailed thence into Syria (and with him Priscilla and Aquila), having shorn his head in Cenchrae: for he had a vow.
uPaulo, ze yakilaa kikie pang'wanso ku itungo ilipu, ai ualekile anya ndugu nu kulongola na meli ku Siria palung'wi nu Prisila nu Akwila. Ze ikili nu kuhega pa bandari, ai uzue insingi niakwe ku nsoko ai watula walapaa kutula munazili.
19 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there. But he himself entering into the synagogue, disputed with the Jews.
Nai akapika ku Efeso, uPaulo ai umulekile uPrisila nu Akwila pang'wanso, kuiti ung'wenso mukola akingila mi itekeelo nu kitambulya ni Ayahudi.
20 And when they desired him, that he would tarry a longer time, he consented not;
Nai amutambuie uPaulo wikie ni enso ku itungo ilipu, nuanso ai uhitile.
21 But taking his leave, and saying: I will return to you again, God willing, he departed from Ephesus.
Kuiti wakahega kitalao, aka atambuila, “Nikasuka hangi kitalanyu, agaitule ingi ulowa wang'wa Itunda.” Ze yakilaa pang'wanso, wakahega ku meli kupuma ku Efeso.
22 And going down to Caesarea, he went up to Jerusalem, and saluted the church, and so came down to Antioch.
uPaulo nai wakasima ku Kaisaria, ai unankie kulongola kulilamusha itekeelo nila ku Yerusalemu, uugwa akasima pihi ku itekeelo nila ku Antiokoa.
23 And after he had spent some time there, he departed, and went through the country of Galatia and Phrygia, in order, confirming all the disciples.
Ze yakilaa kikie ku itungo ilipu pang'wanso, uPaulo ai uhegile kukiila nkika nia ku Galatia ni Frigia nu kuakinyila inkolo i amanyisigwa ihi.
24 Now a certain Jew, named Apollo, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus, one mighty in the scriptures.
Muyahudi ung'wi nuitangwaa Apolo, nai utugiwe uko ku Alexandria, ai upembilye ku Efeso. Ai ukete nu ulingi mu kuligitya hangi muhugu mu ukilisigwa.
25 This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, spoke, and taught diligently the things that are of Jesus, knowing only the baptism of John.
uApollo ai watulaa ulagiiwe mu umanyisigwa nua Mukulu. Ku kinya uli nai ukete nu ukamatiku mu nkolo, ai wiligityaa nu kumanyisa ku uziza imakani namutuile uYesu, ila ai ulingile udu u wogigwa nuang'wa Yohana.
26 This man therefore began to speak boldly in the synagogue. Whom when Priscilla and Aquila had heard, they took him to them, and expounded to him the way of the Lord more diligently.
uApolo akandya kitamulya ku ukamatiku mi itekeelo. Kuiti uPrisila nu Akwila nai akamija, ai azipilye kihumbashuya nu ng'wenso hangi akamuganuila migulya a nzila niang'wa Itunda ku uziza,
27 And whereas he was desirous to go to Achaia, the brethren exhorting, wrote to the disciples to receive him. Who, when he was come, helped them much who had believed.
Nai wakahung'wa insula kuhega kulongola ku Akaya, anyandugu ai amukinyie inkolo nu kuakilisilya ibada i amanyisigwa niakoli ku Akaya iti ahume kumusingiilya. Nuikapikiila, ku ukende ai ua aiiye nangaluu awo nai ahuiie.
28 For with much vigour he convinced the Jews openly, shewing by the scriptures, that Jesus is the Christ.
Ku ngulu niakwe ni mahala, uApolo ai uakiile i Ayahudi mu kihenga wazelagiila kukiila ukilisigwa niya kina uYesu yuyo Kristo.
