Acts 21
1 And it came to pass, at our sailing, having been parted from them, having run direct, we came to Coos, and the succeeding [day] to Rhodes, and there to Patara,
Twavile tulekhehine navo, tugenda muganja, tukhafikha moja khwa moja mumbunchege kwa khukosi, ikhigono ikhyavili tukhafikha mumbunchege uwa Rodo, ukhuhuma ukhu tukhafikha mumbunchage kwa Patara.
2 and having found a ship passing over to Phoenicia, having gone on board, we sailed,
Twavile tukhavile igalava iyilovokha ukhuluta khui Foinike, tukhitoga tulikhugenda.
3 and having discovered Cyprus, and having left it on the left, we were sailing to Syria, and landed at Tyre, for there was the ship discharging the cargo.
Twavile tufikhe khuvulugolo khukhisiva ikhya Kipro, tukhayelekha ikhivokho ikhya khuhege, tukhagenda mpakha khu Siria, tukhagatalukha mumbunchege uwa mu Tiro, ulwakhuva ukhwa igalava vaisyaga imichiga.
4 And having found out the disciples, we tarried there seven days, and they said to Paul, through the Spirit, not to go up to Jerusalem;
Vutuvawene avakongi, tukhatama ukhu ifigono saba. Avakhongi ava vakhambula u-Pavuli ukhugendela khu Mepo ukhuta umwene alekhe ukhuluta khu Yelusalemu.
5 but when it came that we completed the days, having gone forth, we went on, all bringing us on the way, with women and children, to the outside of the city, and having bowed the knees on the shore, we prayed,
Twavile tumalile isikhu ila, ufwe tukhahega tulikhuluta. Twevoni paninie, navadala vavo na vana vavo, vakhatuvikhilincha khunjila ncheto mpakha twavile tukhumile khunji. Khuvunchege tukhafugama, tukhadova, tukhalekhehana khela munu.
6 and having embraced one another, we embarked in the ship, and they returned to their own friends.
Tukhitoga igalava, ukhu avevalikhuvuya khunjavoyo khavili.
7 And we, having finished the course, from Tyre came down to Ptolemais, and having greeted the brothers, we remained one day with them;
Twavile tumalile isafwari yeto ukhuma khu Tiro, tukhafikha khu Tolemai. Pala tukhaponia avalukhu, tukhatama navo ikhigono khimo.
8 and on the next day Paul and his company having gone forth, we came to Caesarea, and having entered into the house of Philip the evangelist—who is of the seven—we remained with him,
Ilya khilavo tukhahega tukhaluta khu Kaisaria. Ufwe tukhigela munyumba iya Filipo, udumbeleli va limenyu, avealepaninie na vala saba, nafwe tukhatama paninie nave.
9 and this one had four daughters, virgins, prophesying.
Umunu uyu alenavakhencha vane uvusavahudekhile avene valagulaga.
10 And we remaining many more days, there came down a certain one from Judea, a prophet, by name Agabus,
Twavile tutamile ukhu akhikha uyamalago ukhuhuma khu Vuyahudi alikhutambuliwa Agabo.
11 and he having come to us, and having taken up the girdle of Paul, having also bound his own hands and feet, said, “Thus says the Holy Spirit: The man whose is this girdle—so will the Jews in Jerusalem bind, and they will deliver [him] up into the hands of nations.”
Umwene akhincha khulyufwe pwu akhatola ukhanda gwa Pavuli. akhikuga amalunde namavokho ga mwene nu khunchova, “Umepo Umbalanche inchova nde,” “Avayahudi ava mu Yerusalemu vikhukhuga umunu uveilolela ukhanda ugu, pwa avene vikhumbikha mumavokho ga vanyapanji.”
12 And when we heard these things, we called on [him]—both we, and those of that place—not to go up to Jerusalem,
Twavile tupulikhe inogwa incho, ufwe paninie na vanu avatamaga pala tukhadova u-Pavuli alekhe ukhutoga ukhuluta khu Yerusalemu.
13 and Paul answered, “Why are you weeping, and crushing my heart? For I am ready, not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the Name of the Lord Jesus”;
Pwu u-Pavuli akhanda, “Mwigakha ndeti mwilela nukhudeya amakha gago? Ulwakhuva nilitayari, sio ukhukugiwa, hata ukhufwila ukwa khu Yerusalemu khulitawa Ntwa uYesu.”
14 and he not being persuaded, we were silent, saying, “The will of the LORD be done.”
Ulwakhuva u-Pavuli salikhunogwa ukhuvuliwa, tukhelekhelwa ukhunchuva, “Uvunogwe wa Ntwa vikhogiwagwe.”
15 And after these days, having taken [our] vessels, we were going up to Jerusalem,
Tukhatola imielugo gweto tulikhutoga ukhuluta khu Yelusalemu.
16 and there went also of the disciples from Caesarea with us, bringing with them him with whom we may lodge, a certain Mnason of Cyprus, an aged disciple.
Avage avakhongi ukhuhuma khu Kaisalia tukhakhogenehaninia nufwe. Vakhagega umunu yumo alikhutambuliwa Mnasoni, umunu uva khu Kipro, ukhogi uvakhatali, uvitwale nave.
17 And we having come to Jerusalem, the brothers gladly received us,
Twavile tifikhe khu Yerusalemu, avalukolo vakhatwambilila khuluhekhelo.
18 and on the next day Paul was going in with us to James, all the elders also came,
Ilya khilavo uPavuli akhaluta paninie nufwe khwa Yakobo, avadyakhoni voni valepwuvale.
19 and having greeted them, he was expounding, one by one, each of the things God did among the nations through his ministry,
Twavile tuvaponinche, alikhuvapa indegilo yemo yemo incha mbombo ncha Nguluve inchuavombile nifilunga ukhugendela imbombo ya mwene.
20 and they having heard, were glorifying the LORD. They also said to him, “You see, brother, how many myriads there are of Jews who have believed, and all are zealous of the Law,
Vavile vapulikhe incho, vakhaginia Unguluve, nukhuvunimbila, “Wilola, lukholo, ulwiemaelfu galengi vidikhe ukhuluma khuVayuta. Voni vinogwa ukhwibata indegilo.
21 and they are instructed concerning you, that you teach departure from Moses to all Jews among the nations, saying not to circumcise the children, nor to walk after the customs;
Vavuliwe uve ukhuta vumayisya Avayahudi avitama khuvuyapanzi ukhulekhehona nu Mose, nukhuta vukhuvavula valekhe ukhukoga iyikho incha khatari.
22 what then is it? Certainly the multitude must come together, for they will hear that you have come.
Tunogiwa tugahendeti? vipulikha ukhuta uve winelile.
23 This, therefore, that we say to you, do. We have four men having a vow on themselves,
Pwu uvombe khila ikhyutukhuvula lino: tuli navanu vane avavikhiwe nekhelo.
24 having taken these, be purified with them, and be at expense with them, that they may shave the head, and all may know that the things of which they have been instructed concerning you are nothing, but you walk—yourself also—keeping the Law.
Vavoleavanu avawivalanche yuve paninie navene, pwu uvahombele indalama nchavene, vakhate imitwe giavene. Pwu khila munu alumanye ukhuta inogwa inchuvakhavuliwe ukhuhusu uve ncha vudesi. Vimeyila ukhuta uve vukonga indagilo.
25 And concerning those of the nations who have believed, we have written, having given judgment, that they observe no such thing, except to keep themselves both from idol-sacrifices, and blood, and a strangled thing, and whoredom.”
Khunogwa incha vanyapanji uvuvene vavile vakilisite, tukhasimbile nukhuhumya ululagilo ukhuta vinogiwa ukhufilekha ifinu ifya khumatekhelo nukhisa, ukhuluma ulukhila ikhyuvaniogwile, vavulekhe uvuligu.”
26 Then Paul, having taken the men, on the following day, having purified himself with them, was entering into the temple, announcing the fulfilment of the days of the purification, until the offering was offered for each one of them.
Pwu, u-Pavuli akhavatola avagosi isikhu iyavile akhivalancha umwene paninie navo, akhigila Mutembile, ukhulagila usikhe ugwa sikhu incha khuevalancha impaka isadakha yekhuminchiwe khuvulila munu.
27 And as the seven days were about to be fully ended, the Jews from Asia having beheld him in the temple, were stirring up all the multitude, and they laid hands on him,
Isikhu incho saba nchavile chikhegelile ukhusila, Avayahudi vadebe ukhuhuma khu Asia vakhambona u-Pavuli Mutembile, avakeresite vakhavipa, valikhumwinulila amavokho.
28 crying out, “Men, Israelites, help! This is the man who, against the people, and the Law, and this place, is teaching all everywhere; and further, also, he brought Greeks into the temple, and has defiled this holy place”;
Valikhu pwuta, “Vanu vakhu Israeli, tutage. Uyu ve munu uveimayisya avanu khila ponu inogwa inchilitofauti na vanu, indegilo, ncha apa. Pwu akhuvagega Avayunani Mutembile nukhupananga pavuvalanche.”
29 for they had seen before Trophimus, the Ephesian, in the city with him, whom they were supposing that Paul brought into the temple.
Ulwakhuva pakhutagula vakhambwene Trofimo Mwefeso akhale nave mumbuchege, avene valikhusaga ukhuta u-Pavuli agegile mutembile.
30 All the city was also moved and there was a running together of the people, and having laid hold on Paul, they were drawing him out of the temple, and immediately were the doors shut,
Uvunchege woni vakhava nuludwada avanu vakhayilapanie nukhumwibata u-Pavuli. Vakhagumia mu Tembile, imilya gu gikhadediwa.
31 and they seeking to kill him, a rumor came to the chief captain of the band that all Jerusalem has been thrown into confusion,
Wuvigela ukhumbuda, inogwa neivikha fikhile usikhakhali umbakha ukhuta khu Yelusalemu khwoni khudegile ifujo.
32 who, at once, having taken soldiers and centurions, ran down on them, and they having seen the chief captain and the soldiers, left off beating Paul.
Usikhe ugwa akhavatola avasikhali alikhuyila khululundamano. Avanu vavile vambwene umbaha va vasikhali, na vasikhali vakhelekhelwa ukhunto u-Pavuli.
33 Then the chief captain, having come near, took him, and commanded [him] to be bound with two chains, and was inquiring who he may be, and what it is he has been doing,
Umbakha vavasikhali akhakhegelela akhamwibata u-Pavuli, akhalamula akhugiwe imiregekhe gevile. Akhambucha umwene veni na agakhile khikhi.
34 and some were crying out one thing, and some another, among the multitude, and not being able to know the certainty because of the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the stronghold,
Avanu palulundamano valikhupwuta uyuge ili uyuge ulwakhuva ambakha va vasikhali savavule khinu ukhukogana nu ywego. Akhalagila u-Pavuli vagelikhe munyumba.
35 and when he came on the steps, it happened he was carried by the soldiers, because of the violence of the multitude,
Avile ifikha mugeto akhatoliwa na vasikhali ukhuhumana nifujo ncha vayalulumdamano.
36 for the crowd of the people was following after, crying, “Away with him.”
Ululundano lwe vanu valikhukoga nu khupwata, “Mugenche uyu!”
37 And Paul being about to be led into the stronghold, says to the chief captain, “Is it permitted to me to say anything to you?” And he said, “Do you know Greek?
U-Pavuli avileikhelekhiwa mugati akhambula umbakha va vasikhali, “Niwesya ukhukhuvula ikhinu?” Umbakha va vasikhali akhata, “Winchova ikhi Yunani?
38 Are you not, then, the Egyptian who made an uprising before these days, and led the four thousand men of the assassins into the desert?”
Uve, siyo veve Imisiri uvealonginche uvutulanogwa, akhatola avabudi elfu nne khufwimba?”
39 And Paul said, “I, indeed, am a man, a Jew, of Tarsus of Cilicia, a citizen of no insignificant city; and I implore you, permit me to speak to the people.”
U-Pavuli ukhata, “Une nili Njahudi, ukhuhuma mumbuchege uwa khu Tarso iya khu Kilikia. Une nilivambunchege uvuvakha, nidova, mnavuleninchove na vanu.”
40 And he having given him leave, Paul having stood on the stairs, beckoned with the hand to the people, and there having been a great silence, he spoke to them in the Hebrew dialect, saying:
Avile umbakha va vasikhali antamile, u-Pavuli akhima mugeto akhahumya eishala khuvanu khukhivokho khya mwene. Ulwale mie, akhanchovanavo khukhi Ebrania. Akhata,
