Acts 20
1 And after the tumult was ceased, Paul calling to him the disciples, and exhorting them, took his leave, and set forward to go into Macedonia.
Tango mobulu esilaki, Polo abengisaki bayekoli mpe alendisaki bango. Sima na yango, apesaki bango mbote ya suka mpe akendeki na Masedwane.
2 And when he had gone over those parts, and had exhorted them with many words, he came into Greece;
Wana azalaki kotambola kati na etuka yango, azalaki kolendisa bandimi na mateya ya ndenge na ndenge kino akomaki na Grese
3 Where, when he had spent three months, the Jews laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria; so he took a resolution to return through Macedonia.
epai wapi awumelaki basanza misato. Kaka na tango Polo alingaki kozwa masuwa mpo na kokende na Siri, Bayuda basalelaki ye likita. Boye, azwaki mokano ya kozongela na nzela ya Masedwane.
4 And there accompanied him Sopater the son of Pyrrhus, of Berea; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus, and Secundus, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.
Tala bato oyo bakendeki na ye elongo: Sopatere, mwana ya Pirisi, moto ya Bere; Arisitarke mpe Sekundusi, bato ya Tesalonika; Gayusi, moto ya Derbe; Timote, Tishike mpe Trofime, bato ya etuka ya Azia.
5 These going before, stayed for us at Troas.
Bango nde bakendeki liboso mpo na kozela biso na Troasi.
6 But we sailed from Philippi after the days of the Azymes, and came to them to Troas in five days, where we abode seven days.
Kasi biso tozwaki masuwa kati na engumba Filipi, sima na feti ya Mapa ezanga levire. Sima na biso kotambola mikolo mitano na mayi, tokutaki bango na Troasi epai wapi tosalaki mikolo sambo.
7 And on the first day of the week, when we were assembled to break bread, Paul discoursed with them, being to depart on the morrow: and he continued his speech until midnight.
Na mokolo ya liboso ya poso, wana tosanganaki mpo na kolia elambo, Polo, oyo asengelaki kokende na mobembo, mokolo oyo elandaki, asololaki na bandimi mpe abendaki masolo molayi penza kino na ngonga ya midi ya butu.
8 And there were a great number of lamps in the upper chamber where we were assembled.
Tosanganaki kati na shambre ya likolo, oyo ezalaki na minda ebele.
9 And a certain young man named Eutychus, sitting on the window, being oppressed with a deep sleep, (as Paul was long preaching, ) by occasion of his sleep fell from the third loft down, and was taken up dead.
Nzokande, elenge mobali moko avandaki na lininisa; kombo na ye ezalaki Etikisi. Lokola Polo azalaki kaka kokoba koloba, pongi makasi ekangaki Etikisi, mpe, mbala moko, akweyaki na mabele wuta na etaje ya misato. Tango batombolaki ye, bamonaki ete asili kokufa.
10 To whom, when Paul had gone down, he laid himself upon him, and embracing him, said: Be not troubled, for his soul is in him.
Polo akitaki, atiaki litoyi na ye na tolo ya Etikisi, akamataki Etikisi na maboko na ye mpe alobaki: — Bobanga te, azali na bomoi.
11 Then going up, and breaking bread and tasting, and having talked a long time to them, until daylight, so he departed.
Amataki lisusu na etaje, abukaki lipa, aliaki yango mpe akobaki koloba kino na tongo, sima nde akendeki.
12 And they brought the youth alive, and were not a little comforted.
Bongo, bazongisaki ya bomoi, elenge mobali epai na bango, mpe bango nyonso balendisamaki makasi.
13 But we, going aboard the ship, sailed to Assos, being there to take in Paul; for so he had appointed, himself purposing to travel by land.
Tokendeki liboso, mpe tozwaki masuwa oyo ememaki biso na Asosi epai wapi Polo asengelaki komatela na masuwa. Azwaki mokano wana, pamba te alingaki kokende kuna na makolo.
14 And when he had met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene.
Tango akutanaki na biso na mboka Asosi, amataki na masuwa elongo na biso, mpe tokendeki na Mitilena.
15 And sailing thence, the day following we came over against Chios; and the next day we arrived at Samos; and the day following we came to Miletus.
Longwa wana, tozwaki masuwa mpo na kokende, mpe tokomaki liboso ya Shio, mokolo oyo elandaki. Sima na mokolo moko, tokomaki na Samosi, mpe, mokolo oyo elandaki, tokomaki na Mile.
16 For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, lest he should be stayed any time in Asia. For he hasted, if it were possible for him, to keep the day of Pentecost at Jerusalem.
Polo azwaki mokano ya kotelema te na Efeso mpe ya kolekisa tango te na mokili ya Azia, pamba te azalaki na posa, soki akolonga, ya kokoma noki na Yelusalemi mpo ete azala na mokolo ya Pantekoti.
17 And sending from Miletus to Ephesus, he called the ancients of the church.
Wuta na Mile, Polo abengisaki bakambi ya Lingomba ya Efeso.
18 And when they were come to him, and were together, he said to them: You know from the first day that I came into Asia, in what manner I have been with you, for all the time,
Tango bakutanaki na ye, alobaki na bango: — Boyebi malamu ezaleli nini nazalaki na yango tango nyonso liboso na bino, wuta mokolo ya liboso oyo nakomaki na mokili ya Azia.
19 Serving the Lord with all humility, and with tears, and temptations which befell me by the conspiracies of the Jews;
Nasalelaki Nkolo lokola mowumbu, na komikitisa nyonso mpe na mpinzoli, kati na komekama makasi mpo ete Bayuda bazalaki kosalela ngai makita.
20 How I have kept back nothing that was profitable to you, but have preached it to you, and taught you publicly, and from house to house,
Nzokande, boyebi malamu ete nazalaki na somo te ya koteya makambo nyonso oyo ekokaki kosunga bino. Nateyaki bino, ezala na esika ya bato ebele to na ndako ya moko na moko.
21 Testifying both to Jews and Gentiles penance towards God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Nazalaki tango nyonso kosenga, ezala na Bayuda to na bato ya Grese, ete bazongela Nzambe na nzela ya kobongola mitema, mpe batia kondima na bango kati na Yesu, Nkolo na biso.
22 And now, behold, being bound in the spirit, I go to Jerusalem: not knowing the things which shall befall me there:
Boye sik’oyo, na etinda ya Molimo, nakeyi na Yelusalemi, kasi nayebi te likambo nini ekokomela ngai kuna.
23 Save that the Holy Ghost in every city witnesseth to me, saying: That bands and afflictions wait for me at Jerusalem.
Eloko moko kaka nayebi: Molimo Mosantu azali kokebisa ngai ete boloko mpe minyoko ya ndenge na ndenge ezali kozela ngai na bingumba nyonso oyo nakokota.
24 But I fear none of these things, neither do I count my life more precious than myself, so that I may consummate my course and the ministry of the word which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
Nzokande, nazali komona bomoi na ngai lokola eloko pamba; eloko oyo eleki motuya mpo na ngai ezali: kosukisa malamu momekano na ngai ya kopota mbangu mpe kokokisa lotomo oyo Nkolo Yesu apesaki ngai: kosakola Sango Malamu ya ngolu ya Nzambe.
25 And now behold, I know that all you, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
Mpe sik’oyo, nayebi ete bokomona elongi ngai lisusu te, bino nyonso oyo nalekaki kati na bino mpo na koteya sango ya Bokonzi ya Nzambe.
26 Wherefore I take you to witness this day, that I am clear from the blood of all men;
Yango wana, nalobi na bino yango lelo ete nazali na ngambo ya makila ya moto moko te kati na bato nyonso,
27 For I have not spared to declare unto you all the counsel of God.
pamba te nayebisaki bino mabongisi nyonso ya Nzambe mpe nabombelaki bino ata eloko moko te.
28 Take heed to yourselves, and to the whole flock, wherein the Holy Ghost hath placed you bishops, to rule the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
Bomibatela malamu mpe bobatela etonga nyonso oyo kati na yango Molimo Mosantu atiaki bino lokola bakengeli; bobatela Lingomba ya Nzambe, pamba te asombaki yango na makila na Ye moko.
29 I know that, after my departure, ravening wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
Nayebi malamu ete, sima na ngai kokende, bambwa ya zamba ekokota kati na bino mpe ekoyokela etonga mawa te.
30 And of your own selves shall arise men speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
Ezala kati na bino, bato mosusu bakobima, bakoteya mateya ya lokuta mpo na kopengwisa bayekoli ete bazala na ngambo na bango.
31 Therefore watch, keeping in memory, that for three years I ceased not, with tears to admonish every one of you night and day.
Yango wana, bosenzela! Bokanisa malamu ete mibu misato mobimba, butu mpe moyi, natikaki te kokebisa moko na moko na bino, mpe tango mosusu elongo na mpinzoli.
32 And now I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, who is able to build up, and to give an inheritance among all the sanctified.
Sik’oyo, nazali kokaba bino na maboko ya Nzambe mpe na Liloba na Ye ya ngolu. Nzambe azali na makoki ya kolendisa bino mpe ya kopesa bino libula kati na bato nyonso oyo babulisama.
33 I have not coveted any man’s silver, gold, or apparel, as
Nalulaki te palata to wolo to elamba ya moto moko.
34 You yourselves know: for such things as were needful for me and them that are with me, these hands have furnished.
Bino moko boyebi malamu ete ezali maboko na ngai oyo, nde epesaki ngai biloko oyo nazalaki na bosenga na yango mpo na ngai moko, mpe oyo baninga na ngai bazalaki na bosenga na yango.
35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring you ought to support the weak, and to remember the word of the Lord Jesus, how he said: It is a more blessed thing to give, rather than to receive.
Kati na nyonso, natalisaki bino ete tosengeli kosala misala makasi ya lolenge oyo mpe kosunga bato bakelela, na kokanisa Maloba oyo Ye moko Nkolo Yesu aloba: « Esengo ya kokaba eleki esengo ya kozwa. »
36 And when he had said these things, kneeling down, he prayed with them all.
Sima na Polo koloba bongo, afukamaki mpe asambelaki elongo na bango.
37 And there was much weeping among them all; and falling on the neck of Paul, they kissed him,
Bango nyonso bakomaki kolela, bayambaki Polo mpe bapesaki ye beze;
38 Being grieved most of all for the word which he had said, that they should see his face no more. And they brought him on his way to the ship.
bayokaki mawa mingi koleka mpo alobaki na bango ete bakomona elongi na ye lisusu te. Bongo bakendeki kotika ye kino na masuwa.
