Acts 18
1 And after these things, Paul having departed out of Athens, came to Corinth,
Pagamaliki ago, Pauli akawuka ku Atene na kuhamba Kolinto.
2 and having found a certain Jew, by name Aquilas, of Pontus by birth, lately come from Italy, and his wife Priscilla—because of Claudius having directed all the Jews to depart out of Rome—he came to them,
Kolinto kula amkolili Myawudi mmonga liina laki Akula, mkolonjinji wa Ponto. Akula pamonga na mdala waki Plisika, vawuyili magono gagago kuhuma ku Italia ndava chilongosi Kaisali Kilaudio ahamwili Vayawudi voha vawuka ku Loma. Ndi Pauli akahamba kuvalola,
3 and because of being of the same craft, he remained with them, and was working, for they were tentmakers as to craft;
na ndava vene vavi vevitengeneza mandanda lihengu ngati laki, ndi Pauli akatama nawu kuhenga.
4 and he was reasoning in the synagogue every Sabbath, persuading both Jews and Greeks.
Kila Ligono la Kupumulila akotanayi nawu munyumba ya kukonganekela Vayawudi alingayi kuvakulukisa Vayawudi na Vagiliki.
5 And when both Silas and Timotheus came down from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the Spirit, testifying fully to the Jews Jesus the Christ;
Sila na Timoti pavahikili kuhuma Makedonia, hinu lukumbi lwaki lwoha Pauli atumili ndava ya kuvakokosela Vayawudi, kuvya chakaka Yesu ndi Kilisitu Msangula.
6 and on their resisting and slandering, having shaken [his] garments, he said to them, “Your blood [is] on your head—I am clean; from now on I will go on to the nations.”
Nambu Vayawudi pavampingayi na kutumbula kumliga, mwene akakung'unda lububu lwa munyula zaki akavajovela, “Mwakayaga kwali mwavene, nene nihokili lepi. Na kutumbula hinu nikuvahambalila vandu vangali Vayawudi.”
7 And having departed from there, he went to the house of a certain one, by name Justus, a worshiper of God, whose house was adjoining the synagogue,
Kangi Pauli akawuka penapo na kuhamba kutama kunyumba ya mundu mmonga Mgiliki mweakumsadika Chapanga liina laki Tito Yusto nyumba yaki yavili papipi na nyumba ya kukonganekela Vayawudi.
8 and Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue believed in the LORD with all his house, and many of the Corinthians hearing were believing, and they were being immersed.
Kilisipo chilongosi wa nyumba ya kukonganekela Vayawudi yula, mwene pamonga vandu va nyumba yaki vamsadiki Bambu, Vakolinto vamahele pevayuwini ujumbi wula vakasadika na kubatiziwa.
9 And the LORD said through a vision in the night to Paul, “Do not be afraid, but be speaking and you may not be silent;
Ligono limonga kilu, Bambu akamjovela Pauli mumaono, “Ukoto kuyogopa, yendelela kukokosa changali kudenyeka mtima,
10 because I am with you, and no one will set on you to do evil [to] you, because I have many people in this city”;
Muni nene nivii pamonga na veve na kawaka mundu wa kulinga kukulemasa muni pamuji wenuwo vandu vamahele vavi upandi wangu.”
11 and he continued a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
Hinu Pauli atamili kwenuko mulukumbi lwa mwaka umonga na upinga kuni iwula vandu Lilovi la Chapanga.
12 And Gallio being proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made a rush with one accord on Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,
Nambu lukumbi Galio peavi chilongosi wa Akaya, ndi Vayawudi vakamzangila Pauli kwa pamonga na kumpeleka kulibanji la mihalu.
13 saying, “This one persuades men to worship God against the Law”;
Vakajova “Timtakila mundu uyu ndava akuvakulukisa vandu vamuyupa Chapanga munjila yeyiyidakilana lepi na malagizu.”
14 and Paul being about to open [his] mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, “If, indeed, then, it was anything unrighteous, or an act of wicked recklessness, O Jews, according to reason I had borne with you,
Pauli akona kuyangula, Galio akavajovela Vayawudi, “Myuwanila Vayawudi nyenye! Ngati kuvya chakaka lijambu lenili ngalavi la unyagaji amala uhakau nga nivayuwanili.
15 but if it is a question concerning words and names, and of your law, look [to it] yourselves, for I do not intend to be a judge of these things,”
Nambu ngati ndava ya muhutanu wa malovi na mahina na mhilu winu, muhamula nyenye mwavene. Nene niganili lepi kuvya mhamula wa lijambu ili!”
16 and he drives them from the judgment seat;
Ndi akavavinga kuhuma mu libanji la mihalu.
17 and all the Greeks having taken Sosthenes, the chief man of the synagogue, were beating [him] before the judgment seat, and Gallio was not even caring for these things.
Hinu vene vakamkamula Sostene chilongosi wa nyumba ya kukonganekela Vayawudi, vakamtova balapala palongolo ya libanji la mihalu. Nambu Galio nakutangatila nawu hati padebe.
18 And Paul having remained yet a good many days, having taken leave of the brothers, was sailing to Syria—and with him [are] Priscilla and Aquilas—having shorn [his] head in Cenchera, for he had a vow;
Pauli akayendelela kutama na valongo va ku Kolinto kwa magono gamahele. Kangi akavalaga akayingila muwatu kuhamba ku Silia pamonga na Plisika na Akula. Kenkelea kwenuko aketili mayunju gaki ndava amali kutimilisa chilapu chaki kwa Chapanga.
19 and he came down to Ephesus, and left them there, and he himself having entered into the synagogue reasoned with the Jews:
Pavahikili ku Efeso ndi Pauli akavaleka Plisika na Akula, akahamba munyumba ya kukonganekela Vayawudi, akakotana na Vayawudi.
20 and they having requested [him] to remain a longer time with them, he did not consent,
Vamuyipili atama nawu palukumbi lutali, nambu nakuvayidakila.
21 but took leave of them, saying, “It is necessary for me by all means to keep the coming celebration at Jerusalem, and again I will return to you—God willing.” And he sailed from Ephesus,
Nambu akalagana nawu peawukayi, akavajovela, “Ngati Chapanga aganili yati nibwela kavili.” Akawuka ku Efeso muwatu.
22 and having come down to Caesarea, having gone up, and having greeted the assembly, he went down to Antioch.
Peahulwiki Kaisalia, Pauli akahamba pa Yelusalemu na kuvajambusa msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu. Kangi akahamba ku Antiokia.
23 And having stayed some time, he went forth, going successively through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.
Ndi akatama kwenuko mu magono gadebe akayendelela na lugendu kupitila miji ya Galatia na Flugia avakangamalisa vamsadika voha.
24 And a certain Jew, Apollos by name, an Alexandrian by birth, a man of eloquence, being mighty in the Writings, came to Ephesus;
Magono gagago Myawudi mmonga liina laki Apolo mkolonjinji wa Alekisanda, ndi abwelili ku Efeso. Avi na luhala lwa kulongela na mweimanya bwina Mayandiku Gamsopi.
25 this one was instructed in the way of the LORD, and being fervent in the Spirit, was speaking and teaching exactly the things about the LORD, knowing only the immersion of John;
Mundu mwenuyo awuliwi njila ya Bambu, kuni mtima waki uvi heyuheyu akatumbula kudandaula na kuwula uchakaka malovi ga Yesu, nambu mwene amanyili nga ubatizu wa Yohani.
26 this one also began to speak boldly in the synagogue, and Aquilas and Priscilla having heard of him, took him to [them], and more exactly set forth to him The Way of God,
Mwene akatumbula kulongela kwa ukekesi munyumba ya kukonganekela Vayawudi, hinu Plisika na Akula pavamuyuwini vakamtola kuhamba nayu kunyumba yavi na kumuwula Njila ya Chapanga kwa uchakaka neju.
27 and he resolving to go through into Achaia, the brothers wrote to the disciples, having exhorted them to receive him, who having come, helped them much who have believed through grace,
Apolo peaganili kuhamba ku Akaya, vamsadika va ku Efeso vakamkangamalisa mtima na kuvayandikila vamsadika vala vampokelayi. Peahikili kwenuko avatangatili neju vandu vevasadika vala kwa makakala ga ubwina wa Bambu.
28 for he was powerfully refuting the Jews publicly, showing through the Writings Jesus to be the Christ.
Ndi ayendalili kwa ukekesi kujovesana na kuvashinda Vayawudi pavandu ijova hotohoto mu Mayandiku Gamsopi kuvya Yesu ndi Kilisitu Msangula.
