< Acts 18 >
1 After these thinges, Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinthus,
Ye sikilile imbombo isio, u Pqulo alyavukile ku Athene kuluta ku Korintho.
2 And found a certaine Iewe named Aquila, borne in Pontus, lately come from Italie, and his wife Priscilla (because that Claudius had commanded all Iewes to depart from Rome) and he came vnto them.
Ukuo akamwaghile umuYahudi juno itambulivu Akwila umunhu ghwa likabula lya Ponto, umwene nu ndala ghwamwene juno itambulivua Prisila valisile kuhuma ukuo ku Italia, u lwakuva ukilaudia alyalaghile ava Yahudi vooni vabuuke ku Roma;
3 And because hee was of the same crafte, he abode with them and wrought (for their crafte was to make tentes.)
U Paulo alikalile nakuvomba imbombo navene ulwakuva umwene ivomba imbombo jino jiling'ana ni jivanave. Avvene valyale vinosya ifivighili.
4 And he disputed in the Synagogue euery Sabbath day, and exhorted the Iewes, and the Grecians.
U Paulo akapuling'ana navene munyumba ijakufunyila mufighono fyooni ifya sabati. Alyavavulile ava Yahudi palikimo nava Giriki.
5 Now when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul, forced in spirit, testified to the Iewes that Iesus was the Christ.
Looli usauli nu Timotheo yevisile kuhuma ku Makidonia, u Paulo alyasung'ilue nu Mhepo kukuvolela ava Yahudi kuuti u Yesu ghwe Kilisite.
6 And when they resisted and blasphemed, he shooke his raiment, and saide vnto them, Your blood be vpon your owne head: I am cleane: from henceforth will I goe vnto the Gentiles.
Unsiki ghuno valyan'kanile name kukunsyojola, pe u Paulo akakung'unile umwenda ghwa mwene pavulongolo pavanave, na kukuvavula, “Idanda jinu jive vwimila vwa matue ghiinu jumuie; Une nisila makole. Kuhumalino na kughendelela, nikuvalutila avapanji”.
7 So he departed thence, and entred into a certaine mans house, named Iustus, a worshipper of God, whose house ioyned hard to the Synagogue.
Pe akavuka kuhuma pala akaluta kunyumba ja Tito Yusto, umunhu juno ikunsuma u Nguluve. Inyumba jamwene jilipipi ni nyumba ja kufunyila.
8 And Crispus the chiefe ruler of the Synagogue, beleeued in the Lord with all his housholde: and many of the Corinthians hearing it, beleeued and were baptized.
U Krispo, mulongosi ghwa nyumba ja kufunyila palikimo na vanhu avamunyumba ja mwene vakamwitika u Mutwa. Avanhu vinga kuhumakuhuma ku Koritho ye vapulike u Paulo ijova valitike nana kukwofghua.
9 Then saide the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Feare not, but speake, and holde not thy peace.
U Nguluve akam'bula u Paulo pakilo kusila ijambonekelo, “Nungoghopaghe, looli jovagha nungajikaghe Kimmie.
10 For I am with thee, and no man shall lay handes on thee to hurt thee: for I haue much people in this citie.
Ulwakuva une nilipalikimo nuve, nakuale juno kumwa ighela kukunangania, ulwakuva nili navanhu vinga mulikaja ili”.
11 So he continued there a yeere and six moneths, and taught ye worde of God among them.
U Paulo akikalile ukuo ku Niki ugwa mwaka ghumo na Messi n'tanda ye ivulanisia ilisio ilya Nguluve muvanave.
12 Now when Gallio was Deputie of Achaia, the Iewes arose with one accorde against Paul, and brought him to the iudgement seate,
Looli u Galio akavombilue kuva n'temi ughwa ku Akaya, ava Yahudi vakima palikimo nhu Paulo na pikun'twala pavulongolo pakitengo ikya vuhighi,
13 Saying, This fellow persuadeth me to worship God otherwise then the Lawe appointeth.
vakaati, “Umunhu uju ikuvahonga avanhu vifunyaghe kwa Nguluve kisila vutavike vwa ndaghhilo”.
14 And as Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio saide vnto the Iewes, If it were a matter of wrong, or an euill deede, O ye Iewes, I would according to reason maintaine you.
Unsiki ghuno u Paulo ye ilonda kujova, u Galio akavavula ava Yahudi, “Umue mwe vayahudi, ndavule ilikosa au uvunangifi, jalejiva kyang'ani kuvavombela.
15 But if it bee a question of woordes, and names, and of your Lawe, looke yee to it your selues: for I will be no iudge of those things.
Looli ulwakuva ye maswali, ghano ghiling'ana na mansion namatavua kange ni ndaghilo sinu, kange muhighanaghe jumue mwevene. Une naninoghuananinoghua kuuti nive muhighi ghwa aghuo.”
16 And hee draue them from the iudgement seate.
U Galio akavavula vavubuke pavulongolo pa kitengo ikyavuhighi,
17 Then tooke al the Grecians Sosthenes the chiefe ruler of the Synagogue, and beat him before the iudgement seat: but Gallio cared nothing for those things.
Mu uluo, vakan'kola u Sosthene, umulongosi ughwa nyumba ija kufunyila, vakan'tova pavulongolo pa kitengo ikyavuhighi. Looli ugalio nakoghwipe kino valya vombile.
18 But when Paul had taried there yet a good while, hee tooke leaue of the brethren, and sailed into Syria (and with him Priscilla and Aquila) after that he had shorne his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vowe.
U Paulo, ye ikalile pala unsiki n'tali, akavaleka avanyalukolo pe akaluta ni Melissa ku Siria palikimo nu Prisila nu Akwila. Ye vakyale kuvuka ku bandali, alyaketile ilinyele lya mwene ulwakuva alijighile kuuti m'pesie.
19 Then hee came to Ephesus, and left them there: but hee entred into the Synagogue and disputed with the Iewes.
Ye vafikile ku Efeso, u Paulo alyamulekale u Prisila nu Akwila Pala, looli jujuo mwene akingila munyumba ijakufunyila nakupuling'ana na va Yahudi
20 Who desired him to tarie a longer time with them: but he would not consent,
Ye vam'bulile u Paulo ikale navene unsiki un'tali, umwene akakanile.
21 But bade the farewel, saying, I must needes keepe this feast that commeth, in Hierusalem: but I will returne againe vnto you, if God will. So he sailed from Ephesus.
Looli akavuka kuvanave, akavavula, “Nigomoka kange kulyumue, ulwakuuva vwevughane vwa Nguluve”. Apuo, akabuka ni Meli kuhuma ku Efeso.
22 And when hee came downe to Cesarea, he went vp to Hierusalem: and when he had saluted the Church, he went downe vnto Antiochia.
U Paulo ye imile ku Kaisaria, akatogha kuluta kuhungila inyumba imbaha inyimike ija kufunyila ija ku Yerusalemu, kange akika paasi panyumba imbaha inyimike ija ku Antiokia.
23 Nowe when he had taried there a while, he departed, and went thorowe the countrey of Galatia and Phrygia by order, strengthening all the disciples.
Ye ikalile munsiki Pala, u Paulo alyabukile kukila ku fisala ifya Galatia na ku Frigia nakuvakangasia inumbula ava vulanisivua vooni.
24 And a certaine Iewe named Apollos, borne at Alexandria, came to Ephesus, an eloquent man, and mightie in the Scriptures.
Umu Yahudi jumo juno itambulivua Apolo, juno alyaholilue ukuo ku Alexandria, Akisa ku Efeso. alyale mfwihu kujova ni ngufu muvulembe.
25 The same was instructed in the way of the Lord, and hee spake feruently in the Spirite, and taught diligently the things of the Lord, and knew but the baptisme of Iohn onely.
U Apollo akavulilue mu ndaghilo sa Mutwa. Ndavule alyale ni ngufu nu Mhepo, alyajovile nakuvulanisia vunofu ghano ghiling'ana nu Yesu, alyakaguile kuuti lwe lwofugho lwa Yohana.
26 And he began to speake boldely in the Synagogue. Whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they tooke him vnto them, and expounded vnto him the way of God more perfectly.
U Apolo akatengula kujova kuvukangafu munyumba imbaha inyimike ijakufunyila. Looli u Prisila nu Akwila ye vam'pulike, valyavombile uvumanyani nu mwene kange vakamwolelela ku kyanya musila ija Nguluve vunofu.
27 And when hee was minded to goe into Achaia, the brethren exhorting him, wrote to the disciples to receiue him: and after hee was come thither, he holpe them much which had beleeued through grace.
Ye anoghilue kuvuka kuluta ku Akaya, avanyalukolo vakan'kangasia inumbula na pikuvalembela ikalata avavulanisivua vano valyale ku Akaya kuuti vamwupile. Ye afikile kulusungu alyatangile kyongo vala vano valyamwitike.
28 For mightily hee confuted publikely the Iewes, with great vehemencie, shewing by the Scriptures, that Iesus was that Christ.
Ku ngufu sa mwene Navarro manyani, u Apolo alyavakilile ava Yahudi pavwelu ye ivonesia kuhumila amalembe agha kuuti u Yesu ghwe Kilisite.
