Acts 1
1 I have made the former treatise, O Theophilus, of al that Jesus began to doe and teach,
Mlongu Teufili, mushintola sha kwanja nembiti kuusu vitwatira vyoseri Yesu vyakatenditi na kufunda kwanjira kwanja.
2 Vntill the day that hee was taken vp, after that hee through the holy Ghost, had giuen commandements vnto the Apostles, whome hee had chosen:
Mpaka lishaka lilii pakanyasulitwi kugenda kumpindi kwa Mlungu. Pamberi pa kunyasulwa kugenda kumpindi, kawapananiti malagaliru kupitira Rohu Mnanagala wantumintumi walii yakawasyaguliti.
3 To whome also he presented himselfe aliue after that he had suffered, by many infallible tokens, being seene of them by the space of fourtie daies, and speaking of those thinges which appertaine to the kingdome of God.
Pakuhowa kwakuwi, yomberi kalilanguziyiti mweni kwa womberi na kulilanguziya nakaka kuwera mweni ka mkomu. Yomberi kawalawiriti kwa shipindi sha mashaka malongu msheshi na yomberi kayoweriti nawu kuusu Ufalumi wa Mlungu.
4 And when he had gathered them together, he commanded them, that they should not depart from Hierusalem, but to waite for the promise of the Father, which sayde hee, yee haue heard of me.
Shipindi shimu yomberi pakaweriti nawu, kawapananiti lagaliru ali, “Namlawa amu Yerusalemu, su muliheperi lagilu lya Tati, lilii lyampikaniriti neni nonga kuusu visoweru vyakuwi.
5 For Iohn in deede baptized with water, but ye shall be baptized with the holy Ghost within these fewe daies.
Toziya Yohani kawabatiziti kwa mashi, kumbiti pa mashaka gavuwa ndiri mwenga hamubatizwi kwa Rohu Mnanagala.”
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdome to Israel?
Su wantumintumi pawaliwoniti pamuhera na Yesu, womberi wamkosiyiti, “Mtuwa, shipindi ashi haguwuziyi ufalumi kwa Israeli?”
7 And hee saide vnto them, It is not for you to know the times, or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his owne power,
Yesu kawagambira, “Vyamwenga ndiri kuvimana vipindi ama zitarehi Tati gwangu kavitula muukolamlima wakuwi.
8 But yee shall receiue power of the holy Ghost, when he shall come on you: and ye shalbe witnesses vnto me both in Hierusalem and in all Iudea, and in Samaria, and vnto the vttermost part of the earth.
Kumbiti hamwanki likakala Rohu Mnanagala pakawayizireni mwenga, na hamuweri wapitawu waneni Muyerusalemu na Muyudeya yoseri na Samariya na ata upeleru wa pasipanu.”
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they behelde, he was taken vp: for a cloude tooke him vp out of their sight.
Pakatakuliti kala aga, pawaweriti wankulola yomberi kanyasulitwi kugenda kumpindi kwa Mlungu, liwundu limfifa nawamwona kayi.
10 And while they looked stedfastly towarde heauen, as hee went, beholde, two men stoode by them in white apparell,
Pawaweriti wankali wankulola kumpindi yomberi kwakagenditi, palaa paliya wantu wawili yawavaliti nguwu nvufu wagolokiti pakwegela nawomberi,
11 Which also sayde, Yee men of Galile, why stande yee gasing into heauen? This Iesus which is taken vp from you into heauen, shall so come, as yee haue seene him goe into heauen.
na walonga, “Mwenga wantu wa Galilaya! Iwera hashi mgoloka panu pamlola kumpindi? Yesu ayu, yakanyasulitwi kulawa kwa mwenga kugenda kumpindi, hakizi kayi kwa njira iraa ayi ntambu yamumwoniti pakagenda kumpindi kwa Mlungu.”
12 Then returned they vnto Hierusalem from the mount that is called the mount of Oliues, which is neere to Hierusalem, being from it a Sabbath daies iourney.
Shakapanu wantumintumi wawuyiti Yerusalemu kulawa kulugongu lwa Mizeyituni, kuweriti kilumita yimu kulawa mlushi.
13 And when they were come in, they went vp into an vpper chamber, where abode both Peter and Iames, and Iohn, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartlemew, and Matthewe, Iames the sonne of Alpheus, and Simon Zelotes, and Iudas Iames brother.
Pawasokiti mlushi, wayingiriti mshumba shawalikaliti, nawomberi waweriti Peteru na Yohani na Yakobu na Andereya na Filipu na Tomasi na Batolumayu na Matayu, Yakobu mwana gwa Alifayu na Simoni Zeloti na Yuda mwana gwa Yakobu.
14 These all continued with one accorde in prayer and supplication with the women, and Marie the mother of Iesus, and with his brethren.
Womberi woseri waliwoniti shipinga pamuhera kumluwa Mlungu, pamuhera na wadala na Mariya mawu gwa Yesu na walongu wakuwi Yesu.
15 And in those dayes Peter stoode vp in the middes of the disciples, and sayde (nowe the nomber of names that were in one place were about an hundreth and twentie.)
Mumashaka galii Peteru kagolokiti pakati pa wantu yawamjimira Kristu, weni walanga yawu waweriti miya yimu na malongu mawili, su yomberi kalongiti.
16 Yee men and brethren, this scripture must needes haue beene fulfilled, which the holy Ghost by the mouth of Dauid spake before of Iudas, which was guide to them that tooke Iesus.
“Mwawalongu wangu, Malembu Mananagala gatimiya, geni Rohu Mnanagala katungiti kupitira Dawudi kuusu Yuda yakawalongoziyiti walii yawamkamuliti Yesu.
17 For hee was nombred with vs, and had obteined fellowship in this ministration.
Yuda kaweriti yumu gwa shipinga shetu, toziya mweni kasyagulitwi kaweri mtenda lihengu muyetu.”
18 He therefore hath purchased a field with the reward of iniquitie: and when he had throwen downe himselfe headlong, hee brast asunder in the middes, and all his bowels gushed out.
Su Yuda kahemeliti lirambu kwa mpiya zilii za ukondola zyakazipatiti, pakaweriti kulirambu yomberi kaguwiti na kahowa, kapantika na utumbu wakuwi witika kunja.
19 And it is knowen vnto all the inhabitants of Hierusalem, in so much, that that field is called in their owne language, Aceldama, That is, the field of blood.
Kila muntu yakalikaliti Muyerusalemu kapikaniriti visoweru vya vitwatira avi, na kwa likabira lyawu lirambu ali walishema Akelidama, mana yakuwi “Lirambu lya Mwazi.”
20 For it is written in the booke of Psalmes, Let his habitation be void, and let no man dwel therein: also, Let another take his charge.
Peteru kalongiti, “Ilembwa mushintora sha Zaburi, ‘Numba yakuwi isigali hera, muntu yoseri nakalikala amu.’ Kayi ilembwa, ‘Muntu yumonga katoli lihengu lyakuwi.’
21 Wherefore of these men which haue companied with vs, all the time that the Lord Iesus was conuersant among vs,
“Su ifiruwa tumsyaguli muntu yumonga pakati pa walii yawaweriti pamuhera na twenga shipindi shoseri mtuwa Yesu pakingiriti na kulawa pakati penu.
22 Beginning from the baptisme of Iohn vnto the day that hee was taken vp from vs, must one of them bee made a witnesse with vs of his resurrection.
Kwanjira kwa shipindi sha ubatizu wa Yohani mpaka lishaka lilii Yesu pakanyasulitwi kulawa kwatwenga kugenda kumpindi. Ifiruwa yumu gwawu kaweri kapitawu gwa kuzyuka kwakuwi pamhera natwenga.”
23 And they presented two, Ioseph called Barsabas, whose surname was Iustus, and Matthias.
Su wakanda matawu ga wantu wawili, Yosefu yawamshema Barisaba viraa yomberi kamanikana kwa litawu lya Yustu, na Matiya.
24 And they praied, saying, Thou Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shewe whether of these two thou hast chosen,
Shakapanu wamluwa Mlungu, “Mtuwa, gwenga guyimana myoyu ya wantu woseri. Su gutulanguziyi pakati pa wawili awa ulii yagumsyaguliti,
25 That he may take the roume of this ministration and Apostleship, from which Iudas hath gone astray, to goe to his owne place.
katoli lihengu lya utenderu wa untumintumi wa Yuda yakaulekiti su kagendi pahala pakuwi mweni.”
26 Then they gaue foorth their lottes: and the lotte fell on Matthias, and hee was by a common consent counted with the eleuen Apostles.
Shakapanu wagalambuziya simbi na kugalambuziya simbi aku kumtulukiriti Matiya, nayomberi kayongerwa mushipinga sha wantumintumi lilongu na yumu.
