Acts 18
1 AND after these transactions, Paul departing from Athens, came to Corinth;
Ze yakilaa imakani nanso, uPaulo ai uhegile ku Athene kulongola ku Korintho.
2 and finding a certain Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, lately arrived from Italy, with Priscilla his wife, (because Claudius had issued an order that all Jews should depart from Rome, ) he turned in to them.
Uko akamulija Muyahudi nuitangwaa Akwila muntu nua kabila nila Ponto, ung'wenso nu musungu nuakwe nuitangwaa Prisila ai apembilye kupuma uko ku Italia, ku nsoko uKlaudia ai ulagiiye i Ayahudi ihi ahege ku Roma; uPaulo akapembya kitalao;
3 And as he was of the same occupation, he abode with them, and worked, (for by trade they were tent-makers: )
uPaulo akikie nu kituma i milimo ni enso kunsoko nuanso witumaa mulimo nuipyani niyi nao. Enso ai iza azepya mahema.
4 and he discoursed in the synagogue every sabbath-day, and persuaded both the Jews and the Greek proselytes.
uPaulo akitambulya ni enso mi itekeelo kila luhiku nula kusupya. Ai uapemile i Ayahudi palung'wi ni Agiriki.
5 And when Silas and Timothy were come from Macedonia, Paul felt a strong impulse on his spirit, and forcibly testified to the Jews, that Jesus was the Messiah.
Kuiti uSila nu Timotheo nai akapembya kupuma ku Makedonia, uPaulo ai usuntilwe nu Ng'wau Ngwelu kua kuiila i Ayahudi kina uYesu yuyo Kristo.
6 But as they continued opposing and blaspheming, he shook his garments, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am pure from it: from this moment will I go to the Gentiles.
Matungo i Ayahudi nai amukua nu kumukuna, iti uPaulo wikapununta u ng'wenda nuakwe ntongeela ao, nu kuatambuila, “Sakami anyu ni itule migulya a matwe anyu akola; Unene nimugila ikinkwaatya. kupuma itungili nu kulongoleka, kuahanga i anyaingu.”
7 And departing thence, he came to the house of a person, called Justus, one who worshipped God, whose house was contiguous to the synagogue.
Iti gwa akahega kupuma pang'wanso akalongola mi ito nilang'wa Tito Yusto, Muntu nai wimukulya Itunda. Ito nilakwe ai likoli pakupi ni itekeelo.
8 But Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house: and many of the Corinthians hearing, believed, and were baptised.
uKrispo, mutongeeli nu itekeelo palung'wi ni antu a mi ito nilakwe akamuhuiila uMukulu. Antu idu nia ku Korintho nai amigulye uPaulo ukuligitya ai ahuiie nu kogigwa.
9 Then spake the Lord in a vision by night to Paul, Fear not, but speak; and hold not thy peace:
uMukulu akamutambuila uPaulo utiku kukiila ku nzila a muloto, “Leka kogopa, kuiti ligitya hangi leka kukilaga.
10 for I am with thee, and no man shall set himself against thee to do thee harm; because I have much people in this city.
Ku iti unene nkoli palung'wi nu ewe, hangi kutili nuikagema kuumela, ndogoelyo nkete antu idu mu kisali iki.”
11 And he sat down there a year and six months, teaching among them the word of God.
uPaulo akikie kuko ku itungo la ng'waka ung'wi ni myeli mutandatu wazemanyisa lukani nulang'wa Itunda mukati ao.
12 But when Gallio was the proconsul of Achaia, the Jews, with one accord, rose up against Paul, and brought him to the judgment-seat,
Kuiti uGalio nai wakatendwa muhumi nua ku Akaya, Ayahudi ai imikile palung'wi nsuta nu Paulo nu kumutwala ntongeela a ituntu nila ulamuli,
13 saying, This is the fellow that earnestly persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.
aze ligitya, “uMuntu uyu wiapemaa i antu kumukulya Itunda nsuta ni malagiilyo.”
14 Then Paul being about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews,
Matungo uPaulo nai wakatula uloilwe kuligitya, uGalio aka atambuila i Ayahudi, “Unyenye Ayahudi, anga aza itule utumuli ang'wi ubipya, aza izeetula tai kuitumila u mulimo.
15 If indeed this was now a matter of injustice, or wicked knavery, with reason I should hear you patiently; but if it be merely a controversy about the word, and names, and a law peculiar to yourselves, settle it yourselves: for I will be no judge of these matters.
Kuiti ku nsoko ingi makolyo, natulikile imakani ni mina, ni malagiilyo anyu, uugwa lamuli nyenye akola. Unene nimugila insula kutula mulamuli ku nkani nia makani nanso.”
16 And he drove them from the judgment-seat.
uGalio akalagiilya ahege ntongeela ituntu nila ulamuli.
17 Then all the Greeks laid hold on Sosthenes the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the tribunal. And Gallio paid no regard to any of these things.
Iti gwa, akamuamba uSosthene, mutongeeli nu itekeelo, akamukua ntongeela ituntu nila ulamuli. Kuiti uGalio shanga ai ukee nai akitumile.
18 Then Paul abode there yet many days, and taking leave of the disciples, he set sail for Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having cut off his hair at Cenchrea: for he had a vow.
uPaulo, ze yakilaa kikie pang'wanso ku itungo ilipu, ai ualekile anya ndugu nu kulongola na meli ku Siria palung'wi nu Prisila nu Akwila. Ze ikili nu kuhega pa bandari, ai uzue insingi niakwe ku nsoko ai watula walapaa kutula munazili.
19 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself went into the synagogue, and discoursed with the Jews.
Nai akapika ku Efeso, uPaulo ai umulekile uPrisila nu Akwila pang'wanso, kuiti ung'wenso mukola akingila mi itekeelo nu kitambulya ni Ayahudi.
20 But when they were importunate with him to prolong his stay among them, he consented not;
Nai amutambuie uPaulo wikie ni enso ku itungo ilipu, nuanso ai uhitile.
21 but took his leave of them, saying, I must by any means keep the approaching feast at Jerusalem: but I mean to return to you again, if God so please. So he sailed from Ephesus.
Kuiti wakahega kitalao, aka atambuila, “Nikasuka hangi kitalanyu, agaitule ingi ulowa wang'wa Itunda.” Ze yakilaa pang'wanso, wakahega ku meli kupuma ku Efeso.
22 And landing at Cesarea, he went up, and having saluted the church at Jerusalem, he went down to Antioch.
uPaulo nai wakasima ku Kaisaria, ai unankie kulongola kulilamusha itekeelo nila ku Yerusalemu, uugwa akasima pihi ku itekeelo nila ku Antiokoa.
23 And after making some stay, he departed, passing in regular order through the Galatian district, and Phrygia, confirming all the disciples.
Ze yakilaa kikie ku itungo ilipu pang'wanso, uPaulo ai uhegile kukiila nkika nia ku Galatia ni Frigia nu kuakinyila inkolo i amanyisigwa ihi.
24 Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, a man of eloquence, who was powerful in the Scriptures, had come to Ephesus.
Muyahudi ung'wi nuitangwaa Apolo, nai utugiwe uko ku Alexandria, ai upembilye ku Efeso. Ai ukete nu ulingi mu kuligitya hangi muhugu mu ukilisigwa.
25 He was instructed in the way of the Lord: and being fervent in spirit, he spake and taught very diligently the things concerning the Lord, though knowing only the baptism of John.
uApollo ai watulaa ulagiiwe mu umanyisigwa nua Mukulu. Ku kinya uli nai ukete nu ukamatiku mu nkolo, ai wiligityaa nu kumanyisa ku uziza imakani namutuile uYesu, ila ai ulingile udu u wogigwa nuang'wa Yohana.
26 So this man began to speak with great boldness in the synagogue: but when Aquila and Priscilla heard him, they took him home with them, and more accurately expounded to him the way of the Lord.
uApolo akandya kitamulya ku ukamatiku mi itekeelo. Kuiti uPrisila nu Akwila nai akamija, ai azipilye kihumbashuya nu ng'wenso hangi akamuganuila migulya a nzila niang'wa Itunda ku uziza,
27 And when he wished to pass over to Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him; who arriving, contributed much to confirm those who believed through grace.
Nai wakahung'wa insula kuhega kulongola ku Akaya, anyandugu ai amukinyie inkolo nu kuakilisilya ibada i amanyisigwa niakoli ku Akaya iti ahume kumusingiilya. Nuikapikiila, ku ukende ai ua aiiye nangaluu awo nai ahuiie.
28 For he strenuously argued with the Jews in public, demonstrating by the Scriptures that Jesus is the Messiah.
Ku ngulu niakwe ni mahala, uApolo ai uakiile i Ayahudi mu kihenga wazelagiila kukiila ukilisigwa niya kina uYesu yuyo Kristo.
