Acts 13
1 Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
Nambeambe katika likanisa lya Antiokia, pabile na baadhi ya manabii na baalimu. Babile Barnaba, Simeoni(ywakemwa Nigeri). Lukio ba Kirene, Manaeni (nongowe abile wa myai kwaa Herode kiongozi wa mkoa), na Sauli.
2 As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.
Pababile bakimwabudu Ngwana na kufunga, Roho Mtakatifu kabaya, “Munitengee pembeni Barnaba na Sauli, baipange kazi yaanibakemule kuipanga.”
3 And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid [their] hands on them, they sent [them] away.
Baada ya likanisa kufunga, kuloba na kubeka maboko gabe nnani ya bandu aba, batibaleka bayende.
4 So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
Kwa eyo Barnaba na Sauli batimweshimu Roho Mtakatifu na batiuluka kuelekea Seleukia; boka kolyo balisafiri mu'bahari kuyenda kisiwa cha Kipro.
5 And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to [their] minister.
Pababile katika mji ba Salami, batilitangaza neno lya Nnongo mu'masinagogi ga Ayahudi. Babile pamope ni Yohana Marko kati msaidizi wabe.
6 And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name [was] Bar-jesus:
Pabayenda mu'kisiwa chote mpaka Pafo, bakwembine na mundu fulani mwaabe, Myahudi nabii wa ubocho, ambaye lina lyake lyabile Bar Yesu.
7 Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.
Mwaabe yolo atishirikiana na Liwali Sergio Paulus, ywabile mundu ywaabile na malango. Mundu yolo atibaarika Barnaba na Sauli, kwa mana atipala kuliyowa neno lya Nnongo.
8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.
Lakini Elima “yolo mwaabe” (alee nga lina lyake lyatitafsiriwa) atibapinga; ajaribie kumgeuza yolo liwali aboke mu'imani.
9 Then Saul, (who also [is called] Paul, ) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him,
Lakini Sauli ywakemwa Paulo, abile atijazwa na Roho Mtakatifu, kamtumbulya minyo
10 And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, [thou] child of the devil, [thou] enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
no baya “Wenga wa mwana wa ibilisi, utwelilwe na aina zote za udanganyifu na udhaifu. Wenga ni adui wa kila aina ya haki. Ukoma kwaa kuzigeuza ndela za Ngwana, zazinyoka, je walowa weza?
11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord [is] upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
Nambeambe linga, luboko lwa Ngwana libile nnani yako, na upangika ipofu. Walowa libonekeya kwaa liumu kwa muda”mara yimo ukungu na libendo lyatomboka nnani ya Elimas; atumbwi zunguka palyo aaloba bandu bamwongoze kwa kunkamwa luboko.
12 Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.
Baada ya liwali kubona chakipangike, aaminiya, kwa mana atishangala kwa mapundisho kuhusu Ngwana.
13 Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.
Nambeambe Paulo na mbwiga bake batisafiri mu'mase boka Pafo na baikite Perge katika Pamfilia. Lakini Yohana abalekite na kukerebuka Yerusalemu.
14 But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.
Paulo ni mbwiga wake batisafiri na baikite Antiokia ya Pisidia. Kolyo batiyenda mu'lisinagogi lisoba lya Sabato na tama pae.
15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, [Ye] men [and] brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.
Baada ya kuisoma saliya ya manabii, viongozi ba lisinagogi batumite ujumbe kababaya, “Alongo, mana mubile na ujumbe wa kutia mwoyo bandu pano, muubaye”
16 Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with [his] hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.
Kwa eyo Paulo kayema na kubapungia luboko; kabaya, “Analome ba Israeli na mwenga mwamuheshimia Nnongo, sikilizeni.
17 The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it.
Nnongo wa aba bandu ba Israeli awachawi tate bitu na kuwapanga bandu banyansima batami katika nchi Misri, na kwa luboko lwake kuinuliwa na kubakengama panja yake.
18 And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness.
Kwa miaka arobaini atibavumilia mu'lijangwa.
19 And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.
Baada ya kugaharibia mataifa saba katika nchi ya Kaanani, abapeya bandu bitu nchi yabe kwa urithi.
20 And after that he gave [unto them] judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.
Matendo aga gote gapangike zaidi ya miaka mia ncheche na hamsini. Baada ya ilebe yelo yote, Nnongo abapeile baamuzi mpaka Samweli nabii.
21 And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.
Baada ya aga, bandu batinloba mpwalume, nga nyoo Nnongo abapea Sauli mwana wa Kishi, mundu wa likabila lya Benjamini, kuwa mpwalume kwa miaka arobaini.
22 And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the [son] of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.
Boka po baada ya Nnongo kumwondoa mpwalume, atimwinua Daudi kuwa mplwalume wabe. Ibile ni kuhusu Daudi panga Nnongo kabaya, “Nimpatike Daudi mwana wa Yese kiwa mundu ywaapendezwaye na mwoyo wango; ambaye alowa panga kila kilebe chanikipendile.'
23 Of this man’s seed hath God according to [his] promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:
Boka mu'ukoo ba mundu yolo Nnongo atiiletya Israeli mkochopoli, Yesu, kati yaatiahidi kupanga.
24 When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
Alee litumbwile pangika, kabla ya Yesu kuisa, Yohana kwanza atitangaza ubatizo wa toba kwa bandu bote ba Israeli.
25 And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not [he]. But, behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of [his] feet I am not worthy to loose.
Ni ywembe Yohana paabile atimaliza kazi yake, abayite,'Mwawaza nenga na nyai? nenga na yolo kwaa. Lakini muisikilize, yolo ywaisa kunchogo yango, nastahili kwaa hata legeza ilatu ya magolo gake.'
26 Men [and] brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.
Alongo, bana ba ukolo ba Abrahamu, na balo ambao kati yinu mwamwabudu Nnongo, ni kwa ajili yitu panga ujumbe woo wa ukombozi utumilwe.
27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled [them] in condemning [him].
Kwa balo batama Yerusalemu, ba batawala babe, bantangite kwa kwa uhalisia, na wala bautangite kwaa ujumbe ba manabii abao husomwa kila Sabato; kwa eyo batiutimiza ujumbe wa manabii kwa kumhukumu kiwo Yesu.
28 And though they found no cause of death [in him], yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.
Japokuwa bapatike kwaa sababu inoite kwa kiwo nkati yake, batinloba Pilato amulage.
29 And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took [him] down from the tree, and laid [him] in a sepulchre.
Payomwile makowe gote yaandikilwe kuhusu ywembe, batiuuluya yega yake boka mu'nkongo na kagonja mu'likaburi.
30 But God raised him from the dead:
Lakini Nnongo atimfufua boka kwa bandu ba kiwo.
31 And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.
Atibonekana kwa masoba ganyansima kwa balo bayenda pamope ni ywembe boka Galilaya yenda Yerusalemu. Bandu aba nambeambe nga mashaidi ba bandu.
32 And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,
Nga nyo twaletya habari njema kuhusu ahadi yawapeilwe apindo bitu.
33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
Nnongo abekite ahadi yee kwitu, bana babe, katika lee atimfufua Yesu na kukerebuka kae katika ukoto. Alee liandikilwe kae katika Zaburi ya pili;'Wenga mwana wango, leno nibile Tate bako'
34 And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, [now] no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.
Kuhusu ukweli ni panga atimfufua boka mu'kiwo ili panga yega yake uharibike kwaa, atilongela nyoo:'Nalowa kukupeya utakatifu na baraza halisi za Daudi'
35 Wherefore he saith also in another [psalm], Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
Ayee nga sababu abaya katika Zaburi yenge,'Huruhusu kwaa mtakatifuwako kuubonekeya uozo.”
36 For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:
Kwa mana baada ya Daudi tumikiya mapenzi ga Nnongo katika ubeleki wake, agonjike, atigonja pamope na tate bake, na aubweni uharibifu,
37 But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
Lakini ywafufuliwe na Nnongo aubweni kwaa uharibifu.
38 Be it known unto you therefore, men [and] brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:
Nga nyoo iyowanike kwinu, alongo, pitya mundu yolo, msamaha wa sambi watihubiriwa.
39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Kwa ywembe kila aminiye abalangilwa haki na makowe yote ambayo saliya ya Musa yawapeya kwaa.
40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;
Nga nyo bai mube baangalifu panga kilebe saakilongela manabii kana kiboke kwinu.
41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.
'Linga, mwenga mubile na dharau, na mwamushangala na kuangamiya; kwa mana napanga kazi katika masoba yinu, Kazi ambayo mwaweza kwaa kuiamnia, hata mana mundu alowa kubaeleza.”
42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.
Muda Paulo na Barnaba babokite, bandu baalobite balongele maneno aga lisoba lya Sabato yenge.
43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
Muda mkutano wa lisinagogi pauyomwile thabiti batibakengama Paulo na Barnaba, ambao batilongela nabo na babahimiza bayendelee katika neema ya Nnongo.
44 And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.
Sabato yenge, karibu mji mzima watikwembana kulisikiliza lineno lya Nnongo.
45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
Bayahudi paababweni makutano, batolilwe ni wivu na longela maneno yagapinga ilebe yatilongelwa na Paulo na kuntukana.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
Lakini Paulo na Barnaba batilongela kwa ujasiri no baya, “Ibile muhimu panga neno lya Nnongo lilongelwa kwanza kwinu. Kwa mana mwatilisukumiya kutalu boka kwinu nakuibona kuwa mwastahili kwaa ukoto wangayomoka, mulinge twalowakerebukya Mataifa. (aiōnios g166)
47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, [saying], I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.
Kati ambavyo Ngwana atituamuru, kabaya,'Niabekite mwenga kati bweya kwa bandu ba mataifa, panga mlete wokovu kwa pande zote za dunia.”
48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed. (aiōnios g166)
Mataifa pabayowine lee, batipuraika na kulisifu neno lya Ngwana. Baingi batichauliwa kwa ukoto wangayomoka baliaminia. (aiōnios g166)
49 And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.
Neno lya Ngwana lilienea nchi yote.
50 But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their coasts.
Lakini Ayahudi batibasihi baliojitoa na anwawa muhimu, na viongozi wa mji. Aga yalichochea mateso dhidi ya Paulo na Barnaba na baliatupa panja ya mipaka ya mji.
51 But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto Iconium.
Lakini Paulo na Barnaba batikung'uta vumbi lya magolo gabe. Boka po batiyenda katika mji wa Ikonia.
52 And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.
Na banafunzi batweliwe na furaha pamope na Roho Mtakatifu.
