Acts 28
1 Following the rescue, they learned that the island was called Malta.
Yetufiike vunofu, tulyakagwile kuuti ikiponge kitambulua Malta.
2 Now the natives showed us unusual kindness, in that they kindled a fire and welcomed us all, because it had begun to rain and was cold.
Avaanhu va palikaja na kwe kuti vakatuupilile uvuhugu vwa vulevule, pe valyapembile umwooto na pikutukaribisia tweeni, ulwakuva ifula ni mepo jikale jighendelela.
3 But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and placed them on the fire, because of the heat a viper came out and fastened itself on his hand.
Looli u Paulo ye akang'anisie unsigho ghwasanjala na kuvika pa mwooto, ilijoka ilidebe ilinya sumu likahuma mu sanjala sila ulwakuva lwa vufukefu vuula pe likin'yengelela mu luvoko lwa mweene.
4 So when the natives saw the beast hanging from his hand, they started saying to each other, “This man must be a murderer, whom Justice has not allowed to live, even though rescued from the sea.”
Avaanhu va pa likaja pala yevalolile kwiiti ilijoka liswembela kuhuma muluvoko lwa mweneenevapuling'ana vavuo,”Umuunhu uju kyang'haani m'buudi junoadyeghile mu Nyanja looli uvwakyangani navukuntavula kukukala.”
5 But he just shook the beast off into the fire and suffered no harm.
Looli umweene akantaghila ilijoka ilio kumwooto nakapatile uvunangifu vwooni.
6 Well they were expecting him to swell up, or suddenly fall down dead; but after waiting for quite a while and seeing nothing unusual happening to him, they changed their mind and started saying he was a god.
Aveene vakumughula afimbe inamu nambe aghue na kalingi na kufua. looliye nimulolile ku nsiki untali na kulola kuuti na kwelili lino lilivulevule kwa mweene wakabadilisia amasaghe ghavanave na kuuti alyyale unguluve.
7 Now in that region there were properties belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who welcomed us and in a friendly manner took care of us for three days.
Kange pala pipi palyale ni iisi jinojilyale kyuma kya m'baha wa kiponge, umuunhu juno itambulua pablio. Alatwupilile na pikututengelela ifighono fitatu.
8 Well it happened that the father of Publius was sick in bed with fever and dysentery; Paul went in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.
Lulyahumile kuuti viise wa pablio jikam'bwene imungu ni namu ija kuhalisia. Na ju Paulo amulutile akifunya, akavika amavoko pa kyanya pa mwene na pikum'buvusia.
9 So, when this had happened, the rest of those on the island who had diseases started coming and being healed;
Yelihumile ili, avaanhu avange pa kiponge pala vano valyale vivavua voope vakaluta vakavuvusivua.
10 who also honored us in many ways, and when we put to sea they provided the necessary things.
Avaanhu vakatwoghopa nu vwoghofi uvukome. Panotukale tukuling'ania kukyula, vakatupelile fila fino tukafivombile.
11 Now after three months we put to sea in an Alexandrian ship that had wintered in the island, whose figurehead was ‘the Twin Brothers’.
Yeghakilile ameesi gha tatu, tulyaghendile mu nkate mu meli Iskanda jino jilyakolilue ni ng'ala pa kiaponge pala, jino avalongosi va jene valyale vanyalukolo va vili ava lipasa.
12 We put in at Syracuse and stayed there three days;
Pano yetupumile mu likaja ilya sirakusa, tulikalile pala ivighono vi tatu.
13 from there we tacked back and forth and arrived at Rhegium. After one day a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,
Kuhumila pala tukaghendile tukafike mulikaja ilya Regio. Ye kikilile ikighono kimo imepo ija kumavemba jilyahumile nakalingi, yefikilile ifighono fivili tukafikile mulikaja ilya Putoli.
14 where we found brothers who urged us to stay there seven days—that was how we went toward Rome.
Ukuo kwe tukavavwene ava nyalukolo avange vakatupilile kukukala navoope ifighono lekela lubale. Kusila iji tukisile ku Rumi.
15 And the brothers there, when they heard about our circumstances, came out to meet us as far as Appii Forum and Three Inns. When Paul saw them he thanked God and took courage.
Kuhuma ukuo avanyalukolo vala, yevapulike imola isiitu, vakisile kukutwambilila ukuo kulighulilo ilya Apias ni Hoteli itatu. U Paulo ye avavwene avanyalukolo vala valyamongisie u Nfuluve pe akavika ni ngufu.
16 Now when we entered Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the commander; but Paul was allowed to live by himself, with the soldier who guarded him.
Pano ye twingile ku Roma, u Paulo akatavulilue kukukala mwene palikimo nu n'sikali jula juno alyale ikumulolela.
17 It happened that after three days Paul called together the leaders of the Jews; and when they had assembled he said to them: “Men, brothers, though I had done nothing against ‘the people’ or the ancestral customs, still I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,
Yefikilile ifighono fitatu u Paulo akavakemelile palikimo avaghosi vala vano valyale valongosi mun'kate muva Yahudi. Vano vakisile palikimo, alyajovile kuvanave, “Vanyalukolo, palikimo na kuuti nanihokile n'kole ku vaanhu ava nambe kuvomba luno nalulondua nava Nhaata viitu vanovalyatulongolile, vakanyumisie hwene n'kungua kuhuma ku Yerusalemu kufika hadi mumavoko gha va Rumi.
18 who, when they had examined me, were intending to release me, because I was not guilty of any crime deserving death.
Yevamalile kukumoselesia, vakanoghilue kukundekesia mu vwavuke ulwakuva nalulyale lumonga kulyune ulwa ku hulila pi kum'buuda
19 But when the Jews spoke against it, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar; not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.
Looli ava Yahudi vala vakaati vajovile vunge kuluno vinoghelua avene, penilyaghimbile pihumia apiru kwa Kaisari, napano nalulyale lunyakuva ndiikio nileta amasitaka mu kipelela kyango.
20 For this reason therefore I asked to see you and speak with you; it is because of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain.”
Ulwakuva kiki une nilete i apiru, pa uluo nilyasumile kukuvagha na kujova navoope. Ulwakuva kiila u Israel alipisie nakyo, niikungilue muvukunge uvu.
21 So they said to him: “We have neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brothers who came reported or spoken any evil about you.
Pe vakam'bula, “Natughelile twupile ikalata kuhuma ku Yudea jino jikukujova uve, nambe nakwale unyalukolo juno akisile nakuhumia imola nambe kujova ilisio limonga ilivivi vwimila uve.
22 But we desire to hear from you what you think; because as for this sect, we know that it is spoken against everywhere.”
Looli tulonda kupulika kuhuma kulyuve ghusagha kiki vwimila ilipugha lya vaanhu ava, ulwakuva sivoneka kulyumue kuuti nijova fiivi pooni pano nilipuo.”
23 So arranging a day with him, even more people came to him at his lodging, to whom he kept expounding from morning until evening: solemnly testifying about the Kingdom of God and trying to convince them concerning Jesus, from both the Law of Moses and the Prophets.
Vakaati vavikile ikighono vwimila umwene, avaanhu vinga kyongo valyamwisile pano ikalagha. Alyajovile ilisio lila kuvanave napikuvolelela vwimila ulwa vutua vwa Nguluve. Akaghelile kukuvavika vunofu vwimila u Yesu, kusooni ivili kuhumila mu ngaghilo sa Musa na kuhuma mu vavili, kutengulila pa lwakilavo kufika umpaka pakivwilile.
24 Well some were persuaded by what had been said, and some kept refusing to believe.
Mun'kate mu vavuo vakavahongile kusimo sikajovilue, napano avange navakitike.
25 So being in disagreement among themselves they started to leave, after Paul had said this one word: “The Holy Spirit spoke correctly to our fathers through Isaiah the prophet,
Yevakunilue pikwiting'ana vao kwa vao vakavuka u Paulo ye ajvile imola iji jimo, “U Mhepo u Mwimike vunofu kukuka u Isaya um'biili ghwa va Nhaata viitu.
26 saying: ‘Go to this people and say, “You will keep on hearing, but never understand; you will keep on seeing, but never perceive”;
Akaati, 'Luta kuvaanhu ava ujove, “Ku mbughulutu siinu mum'pulika, looli na mungakitang'anie; na kumaaso ghinu mulola looli namungakagule.
27 because the heart of this people has become sluggish, and their ears are hard of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; in order that they not see with their eyes, nor hear with their ears, nor understand with their heart, nor turn back, so I could heal them.’
Vwimila vwa numbula sa vaanhu ava siila vuvotevote, imbughulutu save sim'pulike ni mumuko, vadindile amaso gha vanave; neke kuuti valeke kukagula ku maso gha vanave, nakum'pulika ku mbughulutu sivsnave, napikun'tang'ania mu nhumbula sivanave, na pisyetuka kange, ngele nivavuvwisie.”
28 Therefore let it be known to you that the salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles; they will listen!”
Pa uluo, mu noghile kukagula kuuti uvuvangi vwa Nguluve vutwalilue ku vaanhu ava panji, kange vipulikisyagha.” (Gadilila: Ikidebe iki
29 And when he had said these things the Jews went their way, having a great dispute among themselves.
“Un'siki ghuno alyajovile amasio agha, ava Yahudi vakabuka, kuno vighelana kyongo vavuo kwa vavuo, nakwesile muvutavike uvunofu uvwa kali).
30 Paul stayed two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who came to see him,
U Paulo akikalile mu nyumba ja mwene ijakupanga amaka ghaviili, kange alyavambilile vooni vanoon vano vakalutagha kwa mwene.
31 proclaiming the Kingdom of God and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ, with all boldness, without hindrance.
Alyale idalikila uvutua vya Nguluve kange alyale ivulanisia amasio vwimila vwa Mutwa Yesu Kilisite mungufu sooni. Nakwale juno kan'sighile.
