Acts 14

1 And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.

Chikwasika inako mwa Ikone, Paulusi ni Barnabasi chivenjila hamwina muma Sinagoge a Majuda, vava wambi mumukwa uchita kuti ma Juda ni Magerike vangi vava zumini.

2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.

Kono ma Juda vasena vavali kukuteka, chiva lyanganisa mihupulo ya va chisi niku letisa kuti vavengele va mwavo.

3 Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word (logos) of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

Linu chivekala mo mazuva mangi, Nivawamba cha kukola cha ziho za Simwine, mi chaha vushupi cha linzwi lya chisemo. Mi chachita ichi cha kuzuminina zimakaza ni zikomokisa kuti zichitwe cha mayanza a Paulusi ni Barnabasi.

4 But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

Kono vungi bwa vantu vamwi toropo vava kauhene hakati: vamwi vantu vavali kuzima kuma ma Juda mi vamwi kuva Apositola.

5 And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,

Mi vonse vasikunze ni ma Juda havavali kulika ku susuweza mihupulo yava yendisi vavo kuti va nyandise niku govola Paulusi ni Barnabasi,

6 They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lies round about:

Chiva lemuha mi chivatilila kumi leneñi ya Laikoniya, Lisitira ni Derbe, ni zikiliti zi zimbulukite,

7 And there they preached the gospel.

mi uko vavali kuka luta linzwi.

8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:

Kwa Listra zuwi mukwame ave kele, kana avali kwina ziho kumatende akwe, avena vuyanga kuzwila mwi vumu liva nyina, asena ava yendi.

9 The same heard Paul speak: who steadfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,

Uzu mukwame cha zuwa Paulusi na wamba. Paulusi avamulolelele ahulu mi chavona kuti wina itumelo yaku hozwa,

10 Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on your feet. And he leaped and walked.

Linu chawamba kwali che nzwi ikando, “Zimane chamatende ako.” Mi mukwame cha lotoka mwi wulu niku zimbuluka.

11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.

Mi chisi hachi vona chava tendi Paulusi, chivanyemuna manzwi avo, chiva wamba muchi Laukosiya, “Vazimu vakeza hansi kwetu muchizimo chavantu.”

12 And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker. (logos)

Chiva sumpa Banabasi “Zeyuisi” ni Paulusi “Hemesi” kakuti ivali nji muwambi.

13 Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.

Mu Prisita va Zeyusi, we tempele ivena kunze kwe tolopo, chaka leta mapulu ni zingalangala ze mpalisa kumulyango. Iye ni chisi vavali kusaka kuha zitavelo.

14 Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,

Linu va apositola, Barnabasi ni Paulusi, havazi zuwa, chivahalula zizwato zavo mi haho vulyo chiva ya mu chisi, nivakavulila cha kuhuwa,

15 And saying, Sirs, why do all of you these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that all of you should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein:

mi nivawamba, “Vakwame chinzi hamuchita izi zintu? Naswe tuvantu sina njenwe ni maikuto aswana ni enu. Twaka mi letela makande malotu, akuta kuti muzwe kwezi zintu zisena intuso muvole kwe Ireza yo hala, ya va vumbi iwulu, inkanda, ni mawate mane ni zonse zina mwateni.

16 Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.

Mwinako zakale avazuminine inkanda zonse kuyenda mwi nzila zavo.

17 Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.

Mi nihakuva vulyo, kana avali siyi nikusena vushupi, mwezo avachiti vulotu mi avamihi invula kuzwa kwi wulu niku mi ha inako indotu, kwizuza inkulo zenu cha zilyo ni kusanga.

18 And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.

Mane ni cha a manzi Paulusi ni Barnabasi vava woli ku kanisa chisi kuva chitila chitavelo haluzala.

19 And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.

Kono ma Juda vavali kuzwa kwa Antioki ni Ikone chivakeza ni kwiza ku susuweza chisi. Vava govoli Paulusi cha mabwe ni kumu kwitila kunze kwe tolopo, cha kuhupula kuti avafwi.

20 Nevertheless, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

Mi va varutwana havavali kuzimene niva muzimbulukite, cha zimana nikwinjila mwi tolopo. Izuva lichilila, chaya kwa Derbe ni Barnabasi.

21 And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,

Havamana ku ruta linzwi mwi toropo ni kutenda varutwana vangi, chivavola kwa Lisitira chikuya kwa Ikone. Mi chikuya kwa Antioki.

22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.

Vava kwete kukoza luhuho lwava zumini ni ku vasusuweza kuzwila havusu mwi tumelo, niva wamba kuti, “Tuswanela kwinjila mwi puso ye Ireza cha manyando mangi.”

23 And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.

Hamana kuva ketala vakulwana mwi inkeleke sonze, mi vava lapeli cha kulinyima zilyo, chivava vika muma yanza asimwine uvava zumini kwali.

24 And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.

Chiva hita inzila ya Pisidiya kwiza kwa Pampiliya.

25 And when they had preached the word (logos) in Perga, they went down into Attalia:

Hava mana kuwamba linzwi mwa Perga, chiva sezumuka kuya kwa Atilia.

26 And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.

Chiva yenda kwa Antioki cha chisepe, kuvavali kususuwezwe ku chisemo che ireza cha musevezi uvava kuzwa kuku mana.

27 And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.

Hava kasika mwa Antioki ni ku kopanya inkereke hamwina. Chiva kaviha zintu sonse Ireza zava veleki chavo, ni mwaveyalwiri Ireza mulyango we intumelo kuva sihanze.

28 And there they abode long time with the disciples.

Chivekala inako inde ni va lutwana.
