Acts 21
1 And as we launched forth, and were departed from them, we came with a straight course vnto Coos, and the day following vnto the Rhodes, and from thence vnto Patara.
Mme erile re sena go kgaogana le ba golwane ba Efeso, ra tlhamalalela kwa Kosa, letsatsi le le latelang ra goroga mo Rodesa ra ba ra tswelela ra ya Patara.
2 And we found a ship that went ouer vnto Phenice, and went aboard, and set forth.
Mme foo ra tshwara sekepe se se yang kwa Siria mo kgaolong ya Finikia.
3 And whe we had discouered Cyprus, we left it on the left hand, and sailed toward Syria, and arriued at Tyrus: for there the ship vnladed ye burden.
Re ne ra bona setlhake sa Kopero, mme ra se feta ka fa molemeng ra ema mo Ture, kwa Siria, kwa sekepe se neng sa ololelwa teng.
4 And when we had found disciples, we taried there seuen dayes. And they told Paul through the Spirit, that he should not goe vp to Hierusalem.
Mme re ne ra fologa mo sekepeng, ra bona badumedi, mme ra nna le bone selekanyo sa beke. Barutwa ba ba ne ba tlhagisa Paulo, Mowa O O Boitshepo o porofesa ka bone gore a seka a ya Jerusalema.
5 But when the dayes were ended, we departed and went our way, and they all accompanied vs with their wiues and children, euen out of the citie: and we kneeling downe on the shore, prayed.
Mme erile bofelo ja beke fa re boela kwa mokorong, phuthego yotlhe mmogo le basadi le bana ba ya le rona kwa lotshitshing kwa re neng ra rapela ra bo ra ba sadisa sentle.
6 Then when we had embraced one another, we tooke ship, and they returned home.
Mme rona ra palama sekepe bone ba boela gae.
7 And when we had ended the course from Tyrus, we arriued at Ptolemais, and saluted the brethren, and abode with them one day.
Mme kwa re neng ra ema teng gape go tloga kwa Ture ke kwa Potolomaia kwa re neng ra dumedisa badumedi teng mme ra tlhola nabo le-tsatsi le le lengwe fela.
8 And the next day, Paul and we that were with him, departed, and came vnto Cesarea: and we entred into the house of Philippe the Euangelist, which was one of the seuen Deacons, and abode with him.
Hong ra tswelela ra ya Kaesarea ra nna kwa lwapeng lwa ga Filipo wa Moefangele, mongwe wa batiakone ba ntlha ba ba supa.
9 Now he had foure daughters virgins, which did prophecie.
O ne a na le bana ba basetsana ba le bane ba ba sa nyalwang ba ba neng ba na le mpho ya go porofesa.
10 And as we taried there many dayes, there came a certaine Prophet from Iudea, named Agabus.
Mme erile re santse re ntse malatsinyana, monna mongwe yo o neng a bidiwa Agabo, yo le ene o neng a na le mpho ya go porofesa, o ne a goroga a tswa Judea,
11 And when he was come vnto vs, he tooke Pauls girdle, and bound his owne hands and feete, and sayd, Thus sayth the holy Ghost, So shall the Iewes at Hierusalem binde the man that oweth this girdle, and shall deliuer him into the hands of the Gentiles.
mme a re etela. O ne a tsaya moitlamo wa ga Paulo, a ipofa maoto le mabogo ka one mme a re, “Mowa O O Boitshepo ware, mme fela jalo mong wa moitlamo o, o tlaa bofiwa ke Bajuta kwa Jerusalema a bo a isiwa Roma!”
12 And when we had heard these things, both we and other of the same place besought him that he would not go vp to Hierusalem.
Mme erile re utlwa mo, rona rotlhe badumedi ba mo gae le bapati ba gagwe ba o tsamayang nabo, ra kopa Paulo gore a seka a ya Jerusalema.
13 Then Paul answered, and sayd, What doe ye weeping and breaking mine heart? For I am ready not to be bound onely, but also to die at Hierusalem for the Name of the Lord Iesus.
Mme ene a re, “Lo lelelang? Lo mphatlola pelo! Gonne ke ipaakanyeditse gore ke se ka ka tshwarwa fela kwa Jerusalema, mme le gore ke swe ka ntlha ya Morena Jesu.”
14 So when he would not be perswaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be done.
Mme erile fa re bona gore ga a ka ke a rapelesega, ra itlhoboga mme ra re, “A go rata ga Morena go diragadiwe.”
15 And after those dayes we trussed vp our fardels, and went vp to Hierusalem.
Mme ya re morago ga moo ra phutha dilwana tsa rona ra ya kwa Jerusalema.
16 There went with vs also certaine of the disciples of Cesarea, and brought with them one Mnason of Cyprus, an olde disciple, with whome we should lodge.
Barutwa bangwe kwa Kaesarea ba tsamaya le rona, mme fa re goroga re ne re le baeng kwa lwapeng lwa ga Monasone; mongwe wa badumedi ba pele, yo o tlholegileng a tswa Kupero
17 And when we were come to Hierusalem, the brethren receiued vs gladly.
mme le badumedi botlhe kwa Jerusalema ba re amogela ka boitumelo.
18 And the next day Paul went in with vs vnto Iames: and all the Elders were there assembled.
Letsatsi la bobedi Paulo o ne a re tsaya go ya go kopana le Jakobe le bagolwane ba phuthego ya Jerusalema.
19 And when he had embraced them, hee tolde by order all things, that God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministration.
Mme morago ga re dumedisana, Paulo a bolela gape dilo tse dintsi tse Modimo o di diretseng Badichaba ka tirelo ya gagwe.
20 So when they heard it, they glorified God, and sayd vnto him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousand Iewes there are which beleeue, and they are all zealous of the Law:
Ba ne ba galaletsa Modimo mme ba re, “O a itse, mokaulengwe yo o rategang, gore go dumetse Bajuta ba le dikete tse kae. Mme ba gatelela thata gore Bajuta ba badumedi ba tshwanetse go sala ngwao ya bone morago.
21 Now they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Iewes, which are among the Gentiles, to forsake Moses, and sayest that they ought not to circumcise their sonnes, neither to liue after the customes.
Bakeresete ba rona ba Sejuta mono Jerusalema ba setse ba boleletswe gore lo kgatlhanong le melao ya ga Moshe, le ngwao ya rona ya Sejuta, le gore lo itsa bana ba bone go rupa.
22 What is then to be done? the multitude must needes come together: for they shall heare that thou art come.
Mme jaanong go ka dirwang? Gonne ba tlaa utlwa gore lo tsile.
23 Doe therefore this that we say to thee. We haue foure men, which haue made a vowe,
“Rona re akanya jaana: Re na le banna ba le bane fano ba ba ipaakanyeditseng go ipeola le go ikana.
24 Them take, and purifie thy selfe with them, and contribute with them, that they may shaue their heads: and all shall knowe, that those things, whereof they haue bene informed concerning thee, are nothing, but that thou thy selfe also walkest and keepest the Lawe.
Tsamayang le bone kwa Tempeleng le lona lo fete lo ipeole, mme lo ba duelele go ipeola. Mme mongwe le mongwe o tlaa itse gore lo dumalana le Bakeresete ba Sehebera le gore le lona lo obamela melao ya Sejuta mme lo akanya jaaka rona mo dilong tse.
25 For as touching ye Gentiles, which beleeue, we haue written, and determined that they obserue no such thing, but that they keepe themselues from things offred to idoles, and from blood, and from that that is strangled, and from fornication.
Mme mo Bakereseteng ba Badichaba ga re ba laolele gore ba sale dingwao tse tsa Sejuta morago gotlhelele, fa e se tse re di ba kwaletseng kaga gore ba seka ba a ja dijo tse di tlhabetsweng medimo ya disetwa, ba seka ba a ja nama e e sa tshololwang madi ya diphologolo tse di kgamilweng, le gore ba seka ba dira boaka.”
26 Then Paul tooke the men, and the next day was purified with them, and entred into the Temple, declaring the accomplishment of the dayes of the purification, vntill that an offering should be offered for euery one of them.
Mme jalo Paulo o ne a dumalana le kopo ya bone mme letsatsi le le latelang a tsamaya le banna a ya kwa Tempeleng, a dira gore maikano a gagwe a itsege ka go ntsha setlhabelo morago ga malatsi a supa le ba bangwe. Malatsi a supa a ne a tloga a fela fa Bajuta bangwe ba ba tswang Asia ba mmona mo Tempeleng mme ba tsosa mokubukubu mo bathong kgatlhanong nae. Ba ne ba mo tshwara,
27 And when the seuen dayes were almost ended, the Iewes which were of Asia (when they sawe him in the Temple) moued all the people, and laide hands on him,
28 Crying, Men of Israel, helpe: this is the man that teacheth all men euery where against the people, and the Lawe, and this place: moreouer, he hath brought Grecians into the Temple, and hath polluted this holy place.
ba goa ba re, “Banna ba Iseraele! Thusang! Monna yo ke ene yo o rerang kgatlhanong le batho ba rona a ba raya a re ba tlole melao ya Sejuta. Ebile o bua kgatlhanong le Tempele ebile a e leswafatsa ka go tsenya Badichaba mo teng.”
29 For they had seene before Trophimus an Ephesian with him in the citie, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the Temple.
(Gonne mo motseng letsatsi leo, ba ne ba mmonye a na le Terofimo wa Modichaba yo o tlholegileng kwa Efeso, mme ba gopola gore o tsentswe ke Paulo mo Tempeleng.)
30 Then all the citie was moued, and the people ran together: and they tooke Paul and drewe him out of the Temple, and forth with the doores were shut.
Baagi ba motse otlhe ba ne ba shakgadiwa thata ke melato e a e pegwang mme ga tsoga mokubukubu o mogolo. Paulo o ne a gogelwa kwa ntle ga Tempele, mme ga tswalwa mabati ka bonako a sena go tsena.
31 But as they went about to kill him, tydings came vnto the chiefe captaine of the band, that all Hierusalem was on an vproare.
Erile fa ba ntse ba leka go mmolaya, lentswe la tla mo molaoding wa mophato wa masole a Roma gore motse otlhe wa Jerusalema o feretlhegile.
32 Who immediately tooke souldiers and Centurions, and ran downe vnto them: and when they sawe the chiefe Captaine and the souldiers, they left beating of Paul.
Mme a akofa a laola masole a gagwe le baeteledipele gore ba tsene fa gare ga boidiidi. Erile fa baferetlhi ba bona mephato e tla, ba khutlisa go betsa Paulo.
33 Then the chiefe Captaine came neere and tooke him, and commanded him to be bound with two chaines, and demaunded who he was, and what he had done.
Mme molaodi wa mephato a tshwara Paulo mme a laola gore a bofiwe gabedi ka dikeetane. Mme a botsa boidiidi jwa batho gore ke mang le gore o dirileng.
34 And one cryed this, another that, among the people. So when he could not know the certeintie for the tumult, he commanded him to be led into the castell.
Bangwe ba ne ba bua se, ba bangwe le bone ba bua se sele. Mme erile fa a sa tlhaloganye se ba mo pegang molato ka sone, a laola gore Paulo a isiwe kwa kagong ya ditlhabano.
35 And when hee came vnto the grieces, it was so that he was borne of the souldiers, for the violence of the people.
Mme erile fa ba fitlha fa mapalamong ga nna pheretlhego e kgolo thata mo e leng gore masole a ne a tsholetsa Paulo a mmaya mo magetleng a bone go mmabalela,
36 For the multitude of the people followed after, crying, Away with him.
mme boidiidi jwa batho jwa salela kwa morago bo goa bo re, “A a bolawe! A a bolawe!”
37 And as Paul should haue bene led into the castell, he sayd vnto the chiefe Captaine, May I speake vnto thee? Who sayd, Canst thou speake Greeke?
Mme erile fa Paulo a tloga a tsenngwa mo teng a raya molaodi a re, “A nka bua nao?” Molaodi a botsa ka kgakgamalo a re, “A o itse Segerika? A ga o Moegepeto yo o neng a eteletse pele ditsuulodi dingwaganyana tse di fetileng a bo a tsaya maloko a babolai a le dikete tse nne a ya nabo kwa sekakeng?”
38 Art not thou the Egyptian who before these dayes raised a sedition, and led out into the wildernesse foure thousande men that were murtherers?
39 Then Paul sayde, Doubtlesse, I am a man which am a Iewe, and citizen of Tarsus, a famous citie of Cilicia, and I beseech thee, suffer mee to speake vnto the people.
Paulo o ne a fetola a re, “Nnyaa, Nna ke Mojuta kwa Tareso mo Kilikia, motse o o seng mmotlana. Ke kopa tetlelelo go bua le batho ba.”
40 And when he had giuen him licence, Paul stoode on the grieces, and beckened with the hand vnto the people: and when there was made great silence, hee spake vnto them in the Hebrewe tongue, saying,
Mme molaodi o ne a dumela, jalo Paulo a ema mo mapalamong mme a gwetlha batho ka seatla gore ba didimale; ka bofefo ga nna tidimalo mo bathong, mme a bua le bone ka Sehebera a re:
