Acts 15
1 Then came downe certaine from Iudea, and taught the brethren, saying, Except ye be circumcised after the maner of Moses, ye cannot be saued.
Mme erile fa Paulo le Barenabase ba sa le kwa Antioka, banna bangwe ba tswa Judea ba goroga mme ba simolola go ruta badumedi gore fa ba sa ngaparele ngwao ya Sejuta ya bogologolo ya go rupisiwa ga ba ka ke ba bolokwa.
2 And when there was great dissension, and disputation by Paul and Barnabas against them, they ordeyned that Paul and Barnabas, and certaine other of them, should goe vp to Hierusalem vnto the Apostles and Elders about this question.
Paulo le Barenabase ba ganetsanya nabo, ba bo ba buisanya nabo ka nako e telele kaga selo se, mme la bofelo badumedi ba ba romela kwa Jerusalema, go ya go bua le baaposetoloi le bagolwane koo kaga selo se.
3 Thus being brought forth by ye Church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conuersion of the Gentiles, and they brought great ioy vnto all the brethren.
Mme morago ga phuthego yotlhe e ba ntsha mo motseng, ba ralala Foneshia le Samaria ba etela badumedi, ba ba bolelela mo go ileng ga itumedisa batho botlhe, gore Badichaba le bone ba ne ba sokologa.
4 And when they were come to Hierusalem, they were receiued of the Church, and of the Apostles and Elders, and they declared what things God had done by them.
Fa ba goroga kwa Jerusalema, ba kopana le bagolwane ba phuthego, baaposetoloi botlhe le bagolwane ba ne ba le teng mme Paulo le Barenabase ba bolela se Modimo o ntseng o se dira mo go boleleng Lefoko ga bone.
5 But said they, certaine of the sect of the Pharises, which did beleeue, rose vp, saying, that it was needefull to circumcise them, and to commaund them to keepe the lawe of Moses.
Mme banna bangwe ba e neng e le Bafarasai pele ga ba sokologa ba ema ka dinao ba bolela gore Badichaba botlhe ba ba sokologileng ba tshwanetse go rupisiwa le gone go tlhokega gore ba sale ngwao le mekgwa ya Sejuta morago.
6 Then the Apostles and Elders came together to looke to this matter.
Mme jalo baaposetoloi le bagolwane ba phuthego ba ne ba ikemisetsa go bitsa phuthego ya go tla go buisanya kaga selo se.
7 And when there had bene great disputation, Peter rose vp, and said vnto them, Ye men and brethren, ye know that a good while ago, among vs God chose out me, that the Gentiles by my mouth should heare the worde of the Gospel, and beleeue.
Mme mo phuthegong, morago ga puisanyo e telele, Petere a ema mme a ba bolelela jaana: “Bakaulengwe, lotlhe lo itse gore Modimo ga o bolo go tlhopha bogologolo go rerela Badichaba Mafoko a a Molemo, gore le bone ba dumele.
8 And God which knoweth the heartes, bare them witnesse, in giuing vnto them ye holy Ghost euen as he did vnto vs.
Modimo o o itseng dipelo tsa batho, o tlhomamisitse gore o amogela Badichaba ka go ba neela Mowa O O Boitshepo, fela jaaka o re o neetse.
9 And he put no difference betweene vs and them, after that by faith he had purified their heartes.
Ga o a dira pharologanyo fa gare ga bone le rona, gonne o tlhatswitse matshelo a bone ka tumelo, fela jaaka o tlhatswitse a rona.
10 Nowe therefore, why tempt ye God, to lay a yoke on the disciples neckes, which neither our fathers, nor we were able to beare?
Mme jaanong a lo tlaa tshwaya Modimo phoso ka go rwesa Badichaba mokgweleo o le e leng rona le borraetsho re sa kgonang go o rwala.
11 But we beleeue, through the grace of the Lord Iesus Christ to be saued, euen as they doe.
A ga lo dumele gore botlhe ba bolokwa ka tsela e le nngwe, ka mpho e e neelwang fela kwa ntle ga theko ke Morena Jesu.”
12 Then all the multitude kept silence, and heard Barnabas and Paul, which told what signes and wonders God had done among the Gentiles by them.
Ga go a ka ga tlhola go nna le kgang epe, mme mongwe le mongwe a reetsa fa Barenabase le Paulo ba bolela kaga dikgakgamatso tse Modimo o di dirileng ka bone mo go Badichaba.
13 And when they helde their peace, Iames answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken vnto me.
Mme erile ba sena go fetsa, Jakobe a ema a re, “Bakaulengwe, ntheetsang.
14 Simeon hath declared, howe God first did visite the Gentiles, to take of them a people vnto his Name.
Petere o lo boleletse ka nako e Modimo o etetseng Badichaba ka yone go ntsha mo go bone ba ba tlaa leretseng leina la one tlotlo.
15 And to this agree the woordes of the Prophets, as it is written,
Mme lobaka lo lwa go ipolela ga Badichaba lo dumalana le se baporofiti ba se buileng. Sekai ke se, reetsang temana e, e e tswang mo go moporofiti Amose:
16 After this I will returne, and will builde againe the tabernacle of Dauid, which is fallen downe, and the ruines thereof will I build againe, and I will set it vp,
Morena a re, ‘Morago, ke tlaa tla ke tla go aga sesha ntlo ya ga Dafide e e senyegileng.
17 That the residue of men might seeke after the Lord, and all the Gentiles vpon whom my Name is called, saith the Lord which doeth all these things.
Gore Badichaba le bone, ba tle ba bone Morena, ebong botlhe ba ba tshwailweng ka leina la me.’
Mme se ke se Morena o se buang, yo o senolang ditiro tsa gagwe tse di dirilweng mo tshimologong. (aiōn g165)
19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them of the Gentiles that are turned to God,
“Mme mogopolo wa me ke gore re seka ra re Badichaba ba ba sokologang ba tshwanetse go obamela melao ya rona ya Sejuta,
20 But that we send vnto them, that they abstaine themselues from filthinesse of idoles, and fornication, and that that is strangled, and from blood.
fa e se gore re ba kwalele gore ba ikgaphe mo go jeng nama ya ditlhabelo tsa disetwa, mo boakeng jotlhe, le mo go jeng nama e e sa ntshiwang madi ya diphologolo tse di kgamilweng.
21 For Moses of olde time hath in euery citie them that preache him, seeing he is read in the Synagogues euery Sabbath day.
Gonne dilo tse tsotlhe ga go bolo go rerwa ka tsone mo matlung a thuto a Sejuta, mo metseng mengwe le mengwe ka Sabata mongwe le mongwe mo dikokomaneng tse dintsi.”
22 Then it seemed good to the Apostles and Elders with the whole Church, to sende chosen men of their owne companie to Antiochia with Paul and Barnabas: to wit, Iudas whose surname was Barsabas and Silas, which were chiefe men among the brethren,
Mme baaposetoloi le bagolwane le phuthego yotlhe ba tlhopha go romela barongwa kwa Antioka ba na le Paulo le Barenabase, go ya go bega kaga mogopolo o. Banna ba ba neng ba tlhophilwe e ne e le baeteledipele ba le babedi ba phuthego, Jutase, (yo gape o neng a bidiwa Barabase) le Silase.
23 And wrote letters by them after this maner, THE APOSTLES, and the Elders, and the brethren, vnto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antiochia, and in Syria, and in Cilicia, send greeting.
Lo ke lokwalo lo ba neng ba lo tsaya: “Lo tswa kwa baaposetoloing, bagolwane le bakaulengwe kwa Jerusalema. Go bakaulengwe ba Badichaba kwa Antioka, Siria le Silisia. Ditumediso!
24 Forasmuch as we haue heard, that certaine which went out from vs, haue troubled you with wordes, and cumbred your mindes, saying, Ye must be circumcised and keepe the Lawe: to whom we gaue no such commandement,
“Re utlwa gore badumedi bangwe ba ba tswang kwano ba lo tlhakantse ditlhogo ba lo botsa kaga poloko ya lona, mme re ne re sa ba laela jalo.
25 It seemed therefore good to vs, when we were come together with one accord, to send chosen men vnto you, with our beloued Barnabas and Paul,
Mme re bonye e le kakanyo e e siameng fa re sena go dumalana ka mogopolo o le mongwe gore re lo romelele baemedi ba babedi ba, ebong Barenabase le Paulo.
26 Men that haue giuen vp their liues for the Name of our Lord Iesus Christ.
Banna ba, Judase le Silase, ba ba itatotseng matshelo a bone ka ntlha ya Morena wa rona Jesu Keresete, ba tlaa bolela se re se dumalaneng kaga potso ya lona.
27 We haue therefore sent Iudas and Silas, which shall also tell you ye same things by mouth.
“Gonne go bonetse go siame mo Moweng O O Boitshepo le mo go rona gore re se beye morwalo o mogolo wa melao ya Sejuta mo go lona go na le gore re khutlise go ja dijo tse di neetsweng medimo ya disetwa le mo nameng e e sa ntshiwang madi a diphologolo tse di kgamilweng le mo boakeng. Fa lo dira se, go lekanye. Salang sentle.”
28 For it seemed good to the holy Ghost, and to vs, to lay no more burden vpon you, then these necessary things,
29 That is, that ye abstaine from things offered to idoles, and blood, and that that is strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keepe your selues, ye shall doe well. Fare ye well.
30 Nowe when they were departed, they came to Antiochia, and after that they had assembled the multitude, they deliuered the Epistle.
Mme barongwa ba bane ba ya kwa Antioka ka bonako, kwa ba neng ba bitsa teng phuthego ya Bakeresete mme ba ba neela lokwalo.
31 And when they had read it, they reioyced for the consolation.
Mme go ne ga nna boitumelo jo bogolo mo phuthegong yotlhe letsatsi leo fa ba lo bala.
32 And Iudas and Silas being Prophets, exhorted the brethren with many wordes, and strengthened them.
Mme Judase le Silase, ka bobedi e le dibui tse di abetsweng puo, ba rerela badumedi dithero tse di telele, ba ba nonotsha mo tumelong.
33 And after they had taried there a space, they were let goe in peace of the brethren vnto the Apostles.
Ba ne ba nna malatsi, a mantsi, mme Judase le Silase ba boela kwa Jerusalema ba isa ditumediso le boitumelo kwa go ba ba neng ba ba romile.
34 Notwithstanding Silas thought good to abide there still.
Mme Paulo le Barenabase ba ne ba nna kwa Antioka go thusa ba bangwe ba se kae ba ba neng ba rera ba bile ba ruta koo.
35 Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antiochia, teaching and preaching with many other, the worde of the Lord.
36 But after certaine dayes, Paul said vnto Barnabas, Let vs returne, and visite our brethren in euery citie, where we haue preached the worde of the Lord, and see how they doe.
Mme morago ga malatsinyana, Paulo a raya Barenabase a re, “A re boele kwa morago, re etele bakaulengwe mo metseng yotlhe e re rerileng Lefoko la Morena mo go yone, mme re bone ka fa ba tsweletseng ka teng.”
37 And Barnabas counselled to take with them Iohn, called Marke.
Barenabase o ne a dumela, mme a rata gore ba tsamaye le Johane Mareko.
38 But Paul thought it not meete to take him vnto their companie, which departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the worke.
Mme Paulo ene o ne a sa batle mogopolo oo gotlhelele, gonne Johane o ne a ba ngwegetse kwa Pamfilia.
39 Then were they so stirred, that they departed asunder one from the other, so that Barnabas tooke Marke, and sailed vnto Cyprus.
Mme kganetsanyo ya bone e ne ya nna e kgolo thata kaga selo se, mo ba neng ba kgaogana. Barenabase a tsamaya le Mareko ba ya Kupero,
40 And Paul chose Silas and departed, being commended of the brethren vnto the grace of God.
fa Paulo ene a tlhopha Silase, mme ka tshegofatso ya badumedi ba ya Siria le Silisia, go kgothatsa diphuthego koo.
41 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, stablishing the Churches.
