Acts 5
1 Now a man called Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold some property.
Iti gwa, muntu ug'wi nai witangwaa Anania, nu Safira musungu akwe, ai aguiye ipatyo nila nsailo,
2 He kept back some of the money he received for himself, and brought the rest to present to the apostles. His wife knew what he was doing.
nu kupiha ipatyo nila mpia nai aguiye (ga nu musungu akwe ai ulilingile ili), nu kuleta ipatyo nilisigile nu kuika mu migulu a itumi.
3 Then Peter asked him, “Ananias, why did you let Satan convince you to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back some of the money from the land you sold?
Kuiti uPetro ai uligitilye, “Anania, ku nik u mulugu umizuiye inkolo ako kuligitya uteele ku Ng'wau Ng'welu nu kupiha ipatyo nila mugunda?
4 While you had the land, didn't it belong to you? And after you sold it, didn't you still have control over what you did with the money? Why did you decide to do this? You haven't lied to human beings, but to God!”
Itungo nai watulaa likili kuguligwa, shanga ai latulaa nsailo ako? Hangi zeyakilaa kuguligwa, shanga ai likoli mu ulamuli nuako? itulikile uli usige ikani ili munkolo ako? Shanga uakongee anga ana adamu, ila umukongee Itunda.”
5 Hearing these words, Ananias fell down and died. Everyone who heard what happened was terrified.
Mu kija imakani aya, uAnania ai ugwie pihi nu kutinanga inkolo. Nu woa ukulu ai uaziie ihi nai aligulye ili.
6 Some of the young men got up and wrapped him in a shroud. Then they carried him out and buried him.
Ahumba akapembya ku ntongeela nu kumuikila mu sanda, nu kumutwala kunzi nu kumuika.
7 About three hours later his wife arrived, not knowing what had happened.
Ze yakilaa masaa ataatu iti, u musungu nuakwe ai wingie mukati, aze shanga ulingile naza katulaa kipumie.
8 Peter asked her, “Tell me, did you sell the land for this price?” “Yes, that was the price,” she replied.
uPetro akamutambuila, “Ntambuile, anga aza ize muguiye u mugunda ku nsailo nanso.” Akaigitya, “Uu, ku nsailo yiyo.”
9 Then Peter told her, “How could you agree together to swindle the Spirit of the Lord? Look, those who buried your husband are just returning, and they'll carry you out too!”
Iti gwa uPetro akamutambuila, “Ikutulika uli kina migombilye ku palung'wi ku mugema u Ng'wau Ng'welu nua Mukulu? Goza, i migulu a awo naza amu ikile u mugoha nuako ikoli pa mumpita, hangi aku ukenga nu ku utwala kunzi.”
10 Immediately she fell down dead at his feet. The young men came back in and found her dead, so they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.
Kupumbugiilya akagwa mu migulu ang'wa Petro, akatinanga inkolo, ni awo i ahumba akapembya mu kati akamuhanga wakondyaa kusha. Akamukenka nu kumutwala kunzi, nu kumuika pakupi nu mugoha nuakwe.
11 Great fear spread through the whole church, as well as among everyone who heard what had happened.
Woa ukulu ukapembya migulya a itekeelo lihi, nu migulya a ihi nai igulye i makani aya.
12 Many miraculous signs were performed among the people by the apostles. All the believers used to meet together in Solomon's porch.
Ilingasiilyo idu nu ukuilwa ai yatulaa yukupumila mukati a antu ku kiila mikono a itumi. Ai atulaa palung'wi mi itando nilang'wa Sulemani.
13 Nobody else dared to join them even though they were greatly respected.
Kuiti, kutili u muntu mungiiza nui nsuta nai watulaa nu ugimya nua kuambinkana ni enso; ga ni iti, ai inkiigwe ikulyo migulya a antu.
14 However, many men and women came to believe in the Lord.
Ga ni ahuiili idu ai atulaa akongeeleka ku Mukulu, ingele nkulu a agoha ni asungu.
15 As a result, people brought those who were sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that as Peter passed by his shadow might fall on them.
ngeli kina ga nai akenkile u ulwae mu kisali, nu kualalisha mu ulili nu mu makoshi, iti kina uPetro anga watule ukukila u mululi nuakwe uhume kusima migulya ao.
16 Crowds from the towns around Jerusalem brought their sick and those afflicted by evil spirits. They were all healed.
Ga ni pan'wanso, ngele nkulu a antu ai apembilye kupuma isali ni ipilimikiiye iYerusalemu, aze a aletile i alwae ni ihi nai ahalinkaniwe ni nkolo ni nshafu, ni ihi ai agunilwe.
17 However, the high priest and those with him (who were Sadducees) became very jealous and decided to intervene.
Kuiti u kuhani nu mukulu ai unyansukile, hangi ihi nai atulaa palung'wi nu ng'wenso ( naza ingi a makumbiko a asadukayo); hangi ai izuiwe nu wilu
18 They arrested the apostles and threw them in the public jail.
akagoola i mikono ao kua amba i itumi nu kua ika mukati a kadulumu nila mu hangu.
19 But during the night an angel of the Lord opened the prison doors and led them out.
Ni matungo a utiku u malaika nua Mukulu akamilugula i milango a kadulumu nu kuatongeela kunzi nu kuligitya.
20 “Go to the Temple and tell the people everything about this new way of life!” he told them.
Longoli, mimike mi tekeelo nu kuatambuila i antu imakani ihi na upanga uwu.”
21 They did as they were told and went into the Temple at around dawn and began teaching. Then the high priest and his followers called a council meeting with all the leaders of Israel. He sent for the apostles to be brought from prison.
Nai akija ili, ai ingie mi tekeelo matungo a maniambwa nu kumanyisa. Kuiti, u kuhani nu mukulu ai uzile ni ihi nai akoli nu ng'wenso, nu kitangiisa i anza lihi ku palung'wi, ni anyampala ihi nia antu a Israeli, nu kua lagiilya mu kadulumu iti kualeta i itumi.
22 But when the officials went to the prison they couldn't find the apostles so they went back and told the council,
Kuiti i anyamulimo nai akalongola, shanga ai a ahangile mu kadulumu, ai asukile nu kuaganuila.
23 “We found the prison all locked up, with guards at the doors. But when we had them open up, we couldn't find anyone inside.”
Kuhangile i kadulumu ilugaiwe iza, ni asunja imikile pa mulango, kuiti nai katula ku ulugula, shanga kihenga u muntu mukati.”
24 Now when the captain of the Temple guards and the chief priests heard this they were totally baffled, and wondered what was going on.
Itungili itngo u jemedari nua itekeelo ni akuhani akulu nai akija i makani aya, ai ingiiwe nu woa ukulu ku nsoko ao, azesiga likutulika uli ikani ili.
25 Then someone came in and said, “Look, the men you put in prison are right there in the Temple teaching people!”
Uugwa ung'wi akapembya nu kuatambuila, “iAntu naza muaikile mu kadulumu imikile mi itekeelo nu kumanyisa i antu.”
26 So the captain went with his guards and brought them in, but did not use force because they were afraid that the people would stone them.
Iti gwa u jemedari ai ulongoe palung'wi ni anyamulimo, nu kualeta, kuiti bila a kituma u minyomo, ku nsoko ai a itumbile i antu akuhuma a akue ku magwe.
27 The apostles were brought in and made to stand in front of the council.
Nai akondya kualeta, ai a ikile ntongeela a ianza, uKuhani nu mukulu aka akolya, azeligitya,
28 “Didn't we order you not to teach in this name?” the high priest demanded to know. “Now look—you've filled the whole of Jerusalem with your teaching, and you're trying to blame us for his death!”
“Aza kulagiiye muleke kumanyisa ku lina ili, hangi mukili mumizuiye i Yerusalemu ku umanyisa nuanyu, nu kuhung'wa nsula a kuleta isakami a muntu uyu migulya itu.
29 But Peter and the apostles answered, “We have to obey God rather than men.
Kuiti uPetro ni itumi aka sukiilya. “Kusinja kumukulye Itunda kukila i antu.
30 The God of our forefathers raised Jesus from the dead—the one you killed by hanging him on a cross.
Itunda nua atata itu ai umiukilye uYesu, nai mumubulagile, ku kumutumbika migulya i ikota.
31 God exalted him to a position of honor at his right hand as Prince and Savior, as a way to bring repentance to Israel, and for the forgiveness of sins.
Itunda ai umukuiye mu mukono nuakwe nua kigoha, nu kumuzipya kutula Mukulu hangi muguni, kupumya upeli ku Israeli, nu ulekelwa nua milandu.
32 We are witnesses of what happened, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.”
Usese ingi akuiili nia makani aya, nu Ng'wau Ng'welu, naiza Itunda umupumilye ku awo ni imukulyaa.”
33 When the council heard this they were furious and wanted to kill them.
Ianyi anza nai akija iti, ai a ambilwe ni ikuo akalowa kuabulaga i itumi.
34 But then one of the council members stood up to speak. He was Gamaliel, a Pharisee and a doctor of law who was respected by everyone. He ordered the apostles sent out for a short while.
Kuiti u pharisayo nai witangwaa Gamalieli, ng'walimu nua malagiilyo, nai ukuigwe ni antu ihi, ai wimikile nu kualagiilya i itumi aholwe kunzi ku itungo ikupi.
35 Gamaliel addressed the council: “Leaders of Israel, be careful what you plan to do to these men.
Iti gwa aka atambuila, “Agoha nia Israeli, tuli ahugu nangaluu ni iko ni mukusigiila kua tendeela i antu awa.
36 Some time ago Theudas tried to make a name for himself, and about four hundred men joined him. He was killed and all who followed him were scattered and it came to nothing.
Ku nsoko, ikali niaki ilee, uTheuda ai wimikile nu kitendiisa kutula muntu mukulu, ni ngele a antu, apikiie magana anne ai amutyatile. Ai ubulagilwe, ni ihi nai atulaa amukuiye ai asapatie nu kulimila.
37 Then after him Judas of Galilee came along at the time of the census, and he attracted some followers. He also died, and those who listened to him were dispersed.
Ze yajilaa u muntu uyu, uYuda mu Galilaya, ai uhumbukile i mahiku nanso nia kukilisigwa ualigwa, aka aluta i antu idu ku kituli kakwe. Nu ng'wenso ga ai ulimie ni ihi nai atulaa amukuiye ai asapatie.
38 So in the current case I recommend that you leave these men alone, and just let them go. If what they are planning or what they are doing comes from their own human thinking, then it will be defeated.
Itungili ku mutambuila, ihuji ni antu awa hangi mualeke i akola, ku nsoko, anga i masigo aya ang'wi mulimo uwu ingi wa antu ukugung'wa.
39 But if it comes from God, you won't be able to defeat them. You could even find yourselves fighting against God!”
Kuiti anga utule wang'wa Itunda, shanga mukuhuma ku ugilya; muhumile ga ukuhanga muki kilya ni Itunda.” Iti gwa, ai alutilwe ni imakani akwe.
40 They were convinced by what he said. So they called the apostles back in, had them whipped, and ordered them not to say anything in the name of Jesus. Then they let them go.
Uugwa, ai aitangile i itumi nuku a kua nu kualagiilya aleke kuligitya ku lina nilang'wa Yesu, nu kualeka alongole yao.
41 The apostles left the council, happy to be considered worthy to suffer shame for the name of Jesus.
Ai ahegile ntongeela a ianza aze iloile ku soko a aligwa kutula akagisha nu kuhita ku kuligwa ku nsoko a lina ni lanso.
42 Every day they continued to teach and proclaim Jesus as the Messiah, in the Temple and from house to house.
Ku lulo, kila luhiku, mukati i tekeelo nu kupuma mi ito kupikiil ito ai alongolekile kumanyisa nu kutanantya uYesu kina Musagulwa.
