Acts 15
1 AND certain men which came down from Judæa taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
Ndambu yi batu baba ku Yuda, balonga bakhomba, bu batuba: —Enati lukadi zengoso nitu yi kibakala banga bu tumina Mina mi Moyize, buna lulendi vuka ko.
2 When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.
Polo ayi Balinabasi baba vunisa ayi baba findisa ziphaka. Diawu babakila lukanu ti Polo ayi Balinabasi ayi ndambu yi batu mu bawu bafueti kuenda ku Yelusalemi kuidi bamvuala ayi bakulutu mu diambu di nsamu wowo.
3 And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
Dibundu diba sindika mu nzilꞌawu. Baviokila ku Fenisi ayi Samali. Buna basamuna phulusu yi Bapakanu; khini yiwombo bamonisa bakhomba.
4 And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.
Bu batula ku Yelusalemi, bayakulu kuidi dibundu, kuidi bamvuala ayi bakulutu ba dibundu. Bamana samuna mambu moso momo mavanga Nzambi mu nzilꞌawu.
5 But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.
Vayi ndambu yi batu, bobo bawilukila, baba mu dikabu di Bafalisi batelama ayi batuba ti: bufueni bazengoso nitu yi kibakala ayi balandakana Mina mi Moyize.
6 And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter.
Bamvuala ayi bakulutu ba dibundu bakutakana mu diambu di yindula nsamu wowo.
7 And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
Ziphaka zingolo zibua, buna Piela wutelama ayi wuba kamba: —A bakhomba! Luzebi beno veka ti tona thama, Nzambi wutsobula va khatitsikꞌeno mu diambu di longa Nsamu Wumboti kuidi Bapakanu muingi bawu bawilukila.
8 And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;
Nzambi zebi mintima mi batu, wuba telimina kimbangi bu kaba vana Pheve Yinlongo banga bu katuvanina.
9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
Niandi kasia tula kadi luviakunu ko va khatitsika beto ayi bawu bu kavedisa mintima miawu mu minu.
10 Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
Vayi buabu bila mbi lueka totila Nzambi mu kuika va tsingu yi minlonguki mfuna wowo bakulu beto ayi beto veka katulendi natikisa ko e?
11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.
Vayi beto tuwilukidi ti mu nlemvo wu Pfumu eto Yesu tuvukidi. Buawu bobo buididi kuidi bawu mamvawu.
12 Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles by them.
Nkangu woso wuba dio sui! Bosi batu boso bawa Balinabasi ayi Polo basamuna bikumu ayi mambu manneni momo Nzambi kavanga mu bawu va khatitsika Bapakanu.
13 And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me:
Buna bamanisa, Yoluka, Zaki wuvutula: —A zinkomba ziama, bika luwa mambu ndieka tuba!
14 Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.
Simoni samuni buevi tona vana thonono Nzambi kabuminina Bapakanu mu diambu di sobula va khatitsikꞌawu dikanda di batu difueni muba batu bandi veka.
15 And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
Buawu bobo budedikinini mambu matuba mimbikudi, boso bu sonimina:
16 After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:
Mambu momo mawu vioka, ndiela vutuka; ayi ndiela buela tunga nzo yi Davidi, yoyi yibua. Ndiela buela tunga bibuangu bioso bitiolumuka, ndiela buela bifuanisa
17 That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.
muingi batu bobo basiala batomba Pfumu va kimosi ayi Bapakanu boso bakubuku muba batu bama. Buawu bobo butubidi Pfumu Wuvanga mambu mama
Mazabikini mu zithangu zioso. (aiōn g165)
19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:
Diawu minu mbueni, tubika yamisa Bapakanu bobo balembo baluka kuidi Nzambi.
20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
Vayi mboti tuba sonikina, mu kuba kamba ti: babika dianga zimbizi zisumuka, zitambuku makaba kuidi bitumba, babika kitsuza ayi babika dianga bibulu biobi bifuidi mu kambu totuka menga ayi babika dianga menga.
21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
Bila mu zitsungi zithama, Moyize beki mu kadika divula minlongi miandi mieti tanga Mina mu bilumbu bioso bi saba mu zinzo zi zikhutukunu.
22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:
Bosi bamvuala ayi bakulutu ba dibundu ayi badibundu boso bawizana mu sobula batu mu bawu ayi kuba fidisa ku Antioshi va kimosi ayi Polo ayi Balinabasi. Basobula Sila ayi Yuda diodi baba ntedilanga “Balisabasi” baba bakulutu va khatitsika bakhomba.
23 And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren send greeting unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia:
Tala busonimina nkanda wowo babavana: —Beto bamvuala, bakulutu ba dibundu ayi bakhomba zieno, tueti vana mboti kuidi bakhomba badi mu makanda ma Bapakanu madi ku Antioshi, ku Sili ayi ku Silisi.
24 Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment:
Banga bu tuwilu ti bakhomba bankaka zitotukila kuidi beto bayiza lusia mu divuda, mu diambu di mu mambu batuba bosi bayiza vudikisa miela mieno. Beto tusia bavana kadi lutumunu ko.
25 It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
Tumueni ti didi diambu dimboti, bu tumeni wizana, mu sobula batu buadi mu beto ayi kulufidisila bawu va kimosi ayi bakhomba zieto zi luzolo Balinabasi ayi Polo;
26 Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
bobo bayekula luzingu luawu mu diambu di dizina di Pfumu eto Yesu Klisto.
27 We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell you the same things by mouth.
Tufidisidi Yuda ayi Sila, bawu bela kulukamba mambu tulusonikini.
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
Bila dimonikini diambu dimboti kuidi Pheve Yinlongo ayi beto mu kambu kulukuika bizitu binkaka vayi mambu mama kaka ma nfunu:
29 That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.
lubika dianga zimbizi zitambuku makaba kuidi bitumba, lubika dianga menga, lubika dianga bibulu bifuidi mu kambu totuka menga; lubika kitsuza. Enati lukikebidi mu mambu momo, buna luvengi diambu di mboti. Lusiala mboti.
30 So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle:
Bawu bu basinduku, bayenda ku Antioshi. Bakutikisa nkangu wu batu, babavana nkanda beni.
31 Which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.
Batu bamona khini bu bamana tanga nkanda beni bila wuba bomba.
32 And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.
Yuda ayi Sila sumbu baba mimbikudi, balonga bakhomba mu mambu mawombo ayi baba kindisa.
33 And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles.
Bu bavuanda kuna ndambu bilumbu; bakhomba baba sindika mu ndembama kuidi bobo baba fidisa. [
34 Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still.
Vayi Sila wuzenga mu siala ku Antioshi; Yuda wuvutuka niandi veka ku Yelusalemi.]
35 Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
Polo ayi Balinabasi bavuanda ku Antioshi, va kimosi ayi bankaka, balonga ayi basamuna Mambu ma Pfumu.
36 And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they do.
Ndambu bilumbu bu bivioka, Polo wukamba Balinabasi: —Bika tuvutuka bumina bakhomba badi mu mavula moso momo tulonga mambu ma Pfumu muingi tutala buevi badidi.
37 And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark.
Balinabasi wuzola nata Yowani, diodi baba ntedilanga Malako.
38 But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.
Vayi Polo wumona ti buisi fuana ko mu nata mutu wowo wusia kuba tina tona ku Pamfili ayi wukambu sala yawu va kimosi.
39 And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed asunder one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto Cyprus;
Polo ayi Balinabasi bazonza ayi bayiza vambana. Balinabasi wunata Malako, wukota mu masuwa ayi wuyenda ku Sipeli.
40 And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God.
Polo wubonga Sila ayi bayenda bakhomba bu zimana kuba yekula mu mioko mi Pfumu.
41 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.
Wuviokila mu Sili ayi mu Silisi, wukindisa mabundu.
