< 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.
Bhai, gubhaikengenenje bhandunji ku Antiokia kopokanga ku Yudea gubhatandubhenje kwaajiganyanga bhakilishitu kuti, “Ibhaga nkajalukanje malinga shiilugwilwe Mmalajilo ga a Musha nkatapulwanga.”
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.
Lyene lilobhelyo lyashinkukumbuya ntau gwankulungwa. A Pauli na a Bhanabha bhakataukanganeje na bhandunji bhala, gwiamulishwe kuti, a Pauli na a Bhanabha na bhandunji bhananji bha a Nnungu bha ku Antiokia bhajendangananje ku Yelushalemu bhakabhonegananje na mitume na bhanangulungwa ga jene nganijo.
3 And being brought on their way by the Assembly, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
Bhai, bhakatumwanjeje na bhandunji bha a Nnungu, gubhapitilenje pakati shilambo sha Poinike na ku Shamalia, akuno bhalilunguyanga ngani ja bhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi shibhashite kwaatendebhushilanga a Nnungu, jene nganijo gujaanonyelenje kwa kaje bhakilishitu bhowe.
4 And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the Assembly, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.
Bhakaikangananjeje ku Yelushalemu gubhaposhelwenje na bhandunji bha a Nnungu na mitume na bhanangulungwa, na bhalabhonji gubhaatalashiyenje yowe ibhatendile a Nnungu pamo na bhanganyabho.
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.
Ikabheje bhakilishitu bhananji bha nkumbi gwa Mapalishayo gubhajimingenenje bhalinkutinji, “Inapinjikwa bhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi bhajalukanje nkukaguya Shalia ja a Musha.”
6 And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter.
Bhai, mitume na bhanangulungwa gubhatemingenenje lukumbi bhaliganishiyanje lilobhelyo.
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.
Nkungulu ukalonjeyeje, a Petili gubhajimi, nigubhashite, “Ashaapwetu, mmanganyanji mmumanyinji kuti kuumila ndandubho a Nnungu bhashinkupinga kung'agula nne kukopoka munkumbi gwenunji nunguye Ngani ja Mmbone kubhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi, nkupinga bhapilikananje na kulupalila.
8 And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;
Na bhalabho a Nnungu bhanakujimanya mitima ja bhandunji, gubhakong'ondele kuti bhaapinjilenje, kwa kwaapanganga Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo malinga shibhatupele uwe.
9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
Wala bhangaagula uwe na bhanganyabho, bhashikujitakaya mitima jabhonji kwa ngulupai.
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?
Bhai nnaino, kwa nndi nnakwaalinganga a Nnungu kwa kwaatwikanga bhandunji mitenga jibhalepelenje kujigala ashainabhetu, nkali uwe twashinkulepela jigala.
11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.
Ikabhe putukulupalila kuti shitutapulwe kwa ntuka gwa Bhakulungwa a Yeshu malinga bhanganyabho.”
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.
Bhai, bhandunji bhowe pa lukumbi pala, gubhatemingenenje ilili, nkwaapilikanishiyanga a Bhanabha na a Pauli bhalitalashiyanga ga ilangulo na ilapo ibhatendile a Nnungu kwa makono gabhonji kubhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi.
13 And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me:
A Bhanabha na Pauli bhakapumulanjeje kutalashiya, a Yakobho gubhatandwibhe kubheleketa bhalinkuti, “Ashaapwanga mmbilikanishiyanje!
14 Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.
A Shimoni guna bhashemwaga a Petili bhatutalashiye, bhukalago a Nnungu shibhaashite languya kwaapinganga bhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi, gubhaagwilenje bhananji munkumbi gwabhonjimo bhabhanganje bhandu bhabho.
15 And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
Na malobhe ga ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu ganatolana na jene nganiji, malinga shiijandikwe Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo,
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:
‘Gapitaga genega shimuje, na shinjenje kabhili ku nyumba jibhomweshe ja a Daudi, shing'alaye maame gakwe nishenga kabhili.
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.
Nkupinga bhandunji bhaigelenje, na bha ilambo ina bhaashemwanga kwa lina lyangu, bhaaloleyanje Bhakulungwa.
18 Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world. (aiōn g165)
Bhakulungwa bhashite, bhatendile genega gamanyishe kuumila bhukala.’ (aiōn g165)
19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:
“Kwa nneyo, nne ngunatenda nnei, tunaabhuyanje bhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi bhakwaatendebhushilanga a Nnungu.
20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
Ikabhe twaajandishilanje bhaluwa kuti bhanalyanganje yalya yanyata ya mbepei ya ashinnungu bha yanamu, bhaiepuyanje na labhalabha, bhanataunanje nnyama yawa shibhudu na bhanalyanganje minyai.
21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
Pabha kuumila bhukala bhapalinji bhandu bhalunguyanga Malajilo ga a Musha na ganashomwa nnyumba ya jujila Nnungu kila lyubha lya pumulila.”
22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole Assembly, 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:
Bhai, mitume na bhandunji bhowe bha a Nnungu na bhanangulungwa bhabhonji gubhaagwilenje bhandunji kukopoka munkumbi gwabhonji bhaatumanje kwenda ku Antiokia na a Pauli na a Bhanabha. Bhai, gubhaagwilenje a Yuda guna pubhashemwaga a Bhalishabha na a Shila bhowenji bhandunji bha manyika munkumbi gwa bhakilishitu.
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:
Gubhaakamuyenje bhaluwa jajandikwe nnei, “Uwe twaashapwenunji, mitume na bhanangulungwa, shalamu yenunji mwashaapwetu bha ilambo ina nninginji ku Antiokia na ku Shilia na ku Kilikia.
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:
Tupilikene kuti bhandunji bhananji bha kopoka kunngwetu kuno bhashikumpuganyanga kwa malobhe gabhonji, nikumpanganga lipamba mmitima jenunji. Ikabheje akuno jwakwa abhatumilenje.
25 It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
Kwa nneyo tushitama pamo nilagana twaagulanje bhandu twaatumanje bhajiyangananje kweneko na ashaambwiga ajetunji a Bhanabha na a Pauli,
26 Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
bhandunji bhaikakatimilenje gumi gwabhonji kwa ligongo lya liengo lya a Yeshu Kilishitu.
27 We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell you the same things by mouth.
Bhai, twaatumilenje a Yuda na a Shila shibhammalanjilanje kwa kang'wa yabhonji gutujandishe gano.
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
Pabha Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo na uwe tushibhona sha mmbone tunantwikanje mishigo ikabhe gene gapinjikwa gala.
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.
Yani, nnalyanganje nnyama ibhishilwe mbepei kuyanamu, nnapapilanje minyai na nnalyangaanje nnyama yawa shibhudu, mwiepuyanje na labhalabha. Shintendanje mwammbone mwiepuyangaga na yeneyo. Mwanjangana!”
30 So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle:
Mitume bhala bhakalajilwanjeje, gubhaelelenje kuloya ku Antiokia. Kweneko gubhashemilenje lugwinjili lwa bhakilishitu gubhaapelenje bhaluwa jila.
31 Which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.
Bhakashomanjeje bhaluwa jila, malobhe gakwe gakwaataganga ntima niguyaanonyelenje kwa kaje.
32 And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.
Bhai a Yuda na a Shila, pabha na bhalabhonji pubhalinginji ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu, gubhakungulukenje nabhonji kwa malobhe gamagwinji bhalikwaataganga ntima na kwaashimilikanga.
33 And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles.
Na bhakatamanganeje kweneko kwa mobha gashoko, bhakilishitu bha ku Antiokia bhakwalajilangaga akuno bhalikwajujilanga ulele, kungai gubhabhujilengene kubhandunji bhaatumilenje.
34 Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still.
Ikabheje a Shila gubhabhweni shammbone bhatame koko.
35 Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
A Pauli na a Bhanabha gubhatemingenenje ku Antiokia kwa mobha, bhalijiganyanga na lunguya lilobhe lya Bhakulungwa pamo na bhandunji bhana bhabhagwinji.
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.
Gakapiteje mobha gashoko, a Pauli gubhaabhalanjile a Bhanabha, “Tubhuje tukaowelanje ashaapwetu kila shilambo shitulungwiye lilobhe lya Bhakulungwa, tukaalolanje bhalinginji bhuli.”
37 And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark.
A Bhanabha gubhapinjile bhalongane nabhonji a Yowana bhaashemwa a Maliko.
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.
Ikabheje a Pauli bhangapinga kulongana na a Maliko, pabha ku Pampilia bhashinkwaalekenga nikana kulongana nabhonji kuliengo lyabhonji.
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;
Bhai, gubhataukengenenje kwa punda, mpaka gubhalekenenje. A Bhanabha gubhaatolile a Maliko, gubhakwelilenje meli kwenda ku Shilia.
40 And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God.
Ikabheje a Pauli gubhaagwile a Shila, bhakilishitu bha penepo bhakaajujilanjeje mboka ja Bhakulungwa, gubhajabhwile.
41 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the Assemblies.
Gwene mwanjago gubhapitile ku Shilia na ku Kilikia, bhalipita shimilika bhandunji bha a Nnungu.
