Acts 11
1 Nowe the Apostles and the brethren that were in Iudea, heard, that the Gentiles had also receiued the worde of God.
Linu bapositola niba mwabo ba bena mwa Judeya chibazuwa kuti ba Sikunze chibatambula inzwi lye Ireeza.
2 And when Peter was come vp to Hierusalem, they of the circumcision contended against him,
Linu Pitrosi hakeza kwa Jerusalema, abo bena muchikwata chamupato chiba munyansa;
3 Saying, Thou wentest in to men vncircumcised, and hast eaten with them.
Chibati. “Ubali kopanyi ni bakwame basena mupato ni kulya nabo!”
4 Then Peter beganne, and expounded the thing in order to them, saying,
Kono Pitrosi chatanga kubatolokela chakwizula; 'chati,
5 I was in the citie of Ioppa, praying, and in a trance I sawe this vision, A certaine vessell comming downe as it had bene a great sheete, let downe from heauen by the foure corners, and it came to me.
Nibali kulapela mu muleneñi wa Joppa, imi chinaba ni pono yachintu chikeza hansi, sina isila ikando likeza hansi kuzwa kwiwulu lina tukokolwa tonee. Chichakeza kwangu.
6 Towarde the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and sawe foure footed beastes of the earth, and wilde beastes, and creeping things, and foules of the heauen.
China chilolisisa ni kuchizezisisa. Chinabona zinyolozi za matende onne zamu inkanda, zibatana, ziyendisa mabumo, ni zizuni za mwiwulu.
7 Also I heard a voyce, saying vnto me, Arise, Peter: slay and eate.
Linu china zuwa inzwi liwamba kwangu, “zimane, Pitrosi; wihaye mi ulye!”
8 And I said, God forbid, Lord: for nothing polluted or vncleane hath at any time entred into my mouth.
Chinati, “nee; Nanta kanjobulyo, Simwine: kakwina chintu chisachenete kapa china chive chisenjili mukaholo kangu.”
9 But the voyce answered me the seconde time from heauen, The things that God hath purified, pollute thou not.
Kono izwi chilyetaba kuzwilila kwiwulu, “Chalukulula Ireeza chijolola sanzi ucho kuti chinekwe.”
10 And this was done three times, and all were taken vp againe into heauen.
Izi zibatendahali totatwe, imi linu zintu zonse chizabozwa kwiwulu hape.
11 Then behold, immediatly there were three men already come vnto the house where I was, sent from Cesarea vnto me.
Kamulole, hahanu kwina bakwame botatwe bazimene habusu bwe zubo hatwina; ba bakatumitwe kwa Caesarea kwiza kwangu.
12 And the Spirit saide vnto me, that I should go with them, without doubting: moreouer these sixe brethren came with me, and we entred into the mans house.
Luhuho Lujolola lwanilaela kuti ni yende nabo, imi sanzi niloli kutibenabule. Aba bakwame balikana iyanza niyenke babayendi name, imi tubayendi ni kwinjila muzubo yamukwame.
13 And he shewed vs, howe he had seene an Angel in his house, which stoode and said to him, Send men to Ioppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter.
Chatuwambila mwababoneni Iñeloyi ha tuwambila mwaba boneni iñiloi ni lizimene munzubo yakwe ni kucho, “Tumine bakwame kwa Joppa imi mukaboze Simone yo supwa Pitrosi.
14 He shall speake wordes vnto thee, whereby both thou and all thine house shalbe saued.
Mwa wambe kwenu lizwi lyete limihaze - Iwe ni bezubo yako bonse.
15 And as I began to speake, the holy Ghost fell on them, euen as vpon vs at the beginning.
Hani tanga kuwamba kubali, Luhuho Lunjolola chilwasukila kubali, sina njikwetu lwetanzi.
16 Then I remembred the word of the Lord, howe he said, Iohn baptized with water, but ye shalbe baptized with the holy Ghost.
Nibazezi mazwi a Simwine, mwaba wambili, “Joani chabusakusima abakukolobeza chamenzi; kono inwe muswanela kukolobezwa cho Luhuho Lunjolola.”
17 For as much then as God gaue them a like gift, as he did vnto vs, when we beleeued in the Lord Iesus Christ, who was I, that I coulde let God?
Linu haiba Ireeza ababahi impo ziswana ni zetu hatuzumina kwa Simwine Jesu Kreste, njemeni, kuti ni kangisane ni Ireeza?”
18 When they heard these things, they helde their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles graunted repentance vnto life.
Habamana kuzuwa izi zintu, kakwina chibaba wambi kulitabilila, Kono ba balumbeki Ireeza ni kuchokuti, “Imi Ireeza abahibulyo inswalelo ya buhalo kubalichaba nabo.”
19 And they which were scattered abroade because of the affliction that arose about Steuen, went throughout till they came vnto Phenice and Cyprus, and Antiochia, preaching the worde to no man, but vnto the Iewes onely.
Linu babo babahasani bakeñi cha masukuluka abezi chebaka lyefu lya Sitefani, libahasani mane kutwala kwa Fonisiya, Sipera, ni Antioke, kono chibakutaza linzwi lya Jesu feela ku Majuda.
20 Now some of them were men of Cyprus and of Cyrene, which when they were come into Antiochia, spake vnto the Grecians, and preached the Lord Iesus.
Kono bamwi kubali, bakwame bakwa Sipera, ni Sirene, chibeza kwa Antioke, imi chibawamba bulyo ni ku Magerike, ni ku bawambila mazwi malotu kuamna ni Simwine Jesu.
21 And the hand of the Lord was with them, so that a great number beleeued and turned vnto the Lord.
Imi iyanza lya Simwine libena nabo; bungi bwabo bubazumini ni kubola kwa Simwine.
22 Then tydings of those things came vnto the eares of the Church, which was in Hierusalem, and they sent foorth Barnabas, that he should goe vnto Antiochia.
Iñusa kuamana nabo chilyeza mumatwi ye Kereke ya mwa Jerusalema: imi chibatuma Barnabasi kuyenda kule kwa Antioke.
23 Who when he was come and had seene the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted all, that with purpose of heart they would continue in the Lord.
Hakeza ni kwiza kubona impoo ye Ireeza, aba sangi; imi chaba susuweza bonse kwikala ni Simwine chenkulo zabo zonse.
24 For he was a good man, and full of the holy Ghost, and faith, and much people ioyned them selues vnto the Lord.
Imi abali mukwame yabena sinte wizwile Luhuho Lunjolola ni tumelo, imi bungi bwabantu baba ekezehi kwiza kwa Simwine.
25 Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus to seeke Saul:
Barnabasi linu chayenda kwa Tarese, ku kasaka Saule.
26 And when he had founde him, he brought him vnto Antiochia: and it came to passe that a whole yere they were conuersant with ye Church, and taught much people, in so much that the disciples were first called Christians in Antiochia.
Hamuwana, cha muleta kwa Antioke. Chikweza kubakuti, mwaaka onse chibali kunganya hamwina ne Kereke hamwina ni kuluta bungi bwabantu. Balutwana babakusumpwa Makereste lwetazi mwa Antioke.
27 In those dayes also came Prophets from Hierusalem vnto Antiochia.
Linu mwa anu mazuva bamwi bapolofita chiba sezumukila kwa Jerusalema kwa Antioke.
28 And there stoode vp one of them named Agabus, and signified by the Spirit, that there should be great famine throughout all the world, which also came to passe vnder Claudius Cesar.
Umwina kubali, Agabusi, chezina chazima ni kupolofita cha Luhuho kuti inzala inkando mwi ikanda yonse. Izi ziba kutendahala mumazuba a Klaudiya.
29 Then the disciples, euery man according to his ability, purposed to sende succour vnto the brethren which dwelt in Iudea.
Njokuti, balutwana, sina zumwi ni zumwi habakuwola, chahupula kutumina intuso kubamwakwe mwa Judeya.
30 Which thing they also did, and sent it to the Elders, by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
Babatendi bulyo, baba tumini mashelenyi kuba kulwana bakeleke chamanza a Barnabasi ni Saule.
