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,
Patumaliliti kumgambira kwaheri, tukweniti meli tugenda mpaka kosi. Shirawu yakuwi tusokiti Rodi, na kulawa aku tugenditi patara.
2 and having found a ship passing over to Phoenicia, having gone on board, we sailed,
Aku, tuwoniti meli yaiweriti yankugenda Foiniki, hangu tukweniti, tugenda mwanja.
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.
Patusokiti kala pahala peni tuweziti kuwona kupiru, tupitiriti uwega wakuwi wa kushana tugenda Siriya. Tupumliriti mulushi lwa Tiru peni meli ilii iweriti wankusulusiya visanka vyakuwi.
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;
Tuwoniti waumini wamu aku, na tulivaga pamwera nawomberi kwa lijuma limu. Kwa likakala lya Rohu, wamgambira Paulu kotukugenda Yerusalemu.
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,
Kumbiti shipindi shetu pashiperiti tuwukiti woseri pamuhera na wadala na wana wawu watupelekiti mpaka kunja ya lushi. Patusokiti kumbwani, twawoseri tusundamaliti na tumluwa Mlungu.
6 and having embraced one another, we embarked in the ship, and they returned to their own friends.
Shakapanu patulongiti kwaheri, twenga tukwena meli, nawomberi wawuya ukaya kwawu.
7 And we, having finished the course, from Tyre came down to Ptolemais, and having greeted the brothers, we remained one day with them;
Twenga twendereyiti na mwanja gwetu kulawa Tiru tusoka Tolemaisi kweni tuwalamsiya wawumini, tulikaliti nawomberi lishaka limu.
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,
Shirawu yakuwi tuwukiti na tusoka Kaisariya. Aku tulikaliti ukaya kwa Mwinjilisti Filipi yomberi kaweriti yumu gwa walii saba wawasyaguliti kutanga Yerusalemu kulii.
9 and this one had four daughters, virgins, prophesying.
Kaweriti na wahinga wamsheshi weni waweriti na shipaji sha kutakulira ujumbi wa Mlungu.
10 And we remaining many more days, there came down a certain one from Judea, a prophet, by name Agabus,
Pawalikaliti aku mashaka ng'o, mbuyi yumu wamshema Agabu kiziti kulawa Yudeya.
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.”
Katuyiziriti, katola Mkanda gwa Paulu, kalitawa mumawoku na mumagulu Kalonga, “Rohu Mnanagala katakula hangu, ‘Wayawudi Yerusalemu wamtawi ntambu ayi muntu kana mkanda agu na wantu wa maisi wamkamli.’”
12 And when we heard these things, we called on [him]—both we, and those of that place—not to go up to Jerusalem,
Patupikiniriti aga, twenga na wantu wamonga walii wawaweriti panu tumluwiti Paulu kotukugenda 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”;
Kumbiti Paulu kankuliti, “Mfira kutenda shishi? Mfira kugumega moyu gwangu kwa masozi? Neni nwera kala hera ndiri kutatilwa mnumba kulii Yerusalemu, ila ata kuhowa kwajili ya Mtuwa Yesu.”
14 and he not being persuaded, we were silent, saying, “The will of the LORD be done.”
Patusinditi kumuzyangazyanga tunyamala, tulonga hera, “Shakafira Mtuwa shitendeki!”
15 And after these days, having taken [our] vessels, we were going up to Jerusalem,
Pawatamiti palii kwa katepu, tuyopiti visanka vyetu, twendereyiti na mwanja kugenda Yerusalemu.
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.
Wamu wa wafundwa walii wa Kaisariya wagenditi pamuhera natwenga, watujega ukaya kwa Mnasoni yomberi tuweriti twankugenda kulikala nayomberi kwa katepu. Mnasoni kaweriti mwenikaya gwa kupiru na kaweriti muwumini gwa mashaka gavuwa.
17 And we having come to Jerusalem, the brothers gladly received us,
Patuyingiriti Yerusalemu, walongu wawumini watuyangiti weri nentu.
18 and on the next day Paul was going in with us to James, all the elders also came,
Shirawu yakuwi Paulu kagenditi pamwera natwenga kumlamusiya Yakobu, na wazewi na shipinga sha wantu wawamjimira Yesu Kristu waweriti viraa.
19 and having greeted them, he was expounding, one by one, each of the things God did among the nations through his ministry,
Pawamlamsiyiti kala, Paulu kawayupiti shisoweru kamili kuusu goseri Mlungu gakaweriti kagatenda pakati pa wantu wa maisi kwa njira ya lihengu lyakuwi.
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,
Pawapikiniriti aga, wamkwisa Mlungu. Shakapanu kamgambira Paulu, “Mlongu, guweza kuwona handa kwana Wayawudi maelufu weni vinu wawera wajimira na woseri awa wagatenda weri malagaliru.
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;
Wapata visoweru vyakuwi handa guweriti gwanguwafunda Wayawudi yawalikala muwamu mwa wantu wa maisi gamonga nawagashera ndiri malagaliru ga Musa, kotukuwayigiziya jandu wananguta wawu na kotukuzifata mila za Wayawudi.
22 what then is it? Certainly the multitude must come together, for they will hear that you have come.
Nakaka wapikinira handa kasoka kala panu. Tutendi hashi, shakapanu?
23 This, therefore, that we say to you, do. We have four men having a vow on themselves,
Su, gutendi handa ntambu yatukugambiziyiti. Twa panu wantu msheshi weni watula nazili.
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.
Gwingiri pamuhera na womberi, gulipungi pamuhera na womberi na gulipi na shyasi shashiwusika kwa womberi shakapanu wamogi viri zawu. Su kila muntu hakavimani kuwera visoweru vyoseri vilii vyawagambiritwi kuusu gwenga vyahera mana, kumbiti gwenga gumweni gwendereya weri na kugajimira malagiliru ga Musa.
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.”
Kuusu wantu walii wa maisi gamonga wantu yawamjimira Yesu, tuwajegera kala luhamba twankuwagambira vitwatira vyatuamuwiti, waleki kuliya shoseri shawatambikiriti kwa milungu, nawalanda mwazi ama nawaliya vinofu vya shigongolu yawaminduwitwi na waleki uhumba.”
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.
Su lishaka lyalifatiti Paulu kawatoliti wantu walii na kalipunga pamuhera nawu. Shakapanu kingira Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, pakabwera visoweru vya upeleru wa mashaka ga kulipunga na tambiku meitendwi kwa kila muntu.
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,
Shipindi mashaka saba aga pagiziti kupera, Wayawudi waweriti walawa pamkoa gwa Asiya wamwoniti Paulu Mnumba nkulu ya kumluwa Mlungu. Su, wasonguziya maya mushipinga shoseri sha wantu, wamkamula Paulu.
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”;
“Wanaisi wa Israeli, wabotanga Mtutangi! Ayu ndomweni ulii muntu yakawafunditi wantu kila pahala shitwatira shawashilema wantu wa Israeli, yagalema Malagaliru ga Musa na pahala panu pananagala. Ata vinu kawayingiziya wantu wa maisi gamonga Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu na kupatula uhumba pahala panu pananagala.”
29 for they had seen before Trophimus, the Ephesian, in the city with him, whom they were supposing that Paul brought into the temple.
Toziya ya kutakula hangu ndo kuwera waweriti wamwona Tirofimu, mwenikaya gwa Efesu, kaweriti pamuhera na Paulu mlushi, womberi walisheriti kuwera Paulu kaweriti kamwingiziya Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu.
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,
Lushi loseri lwingira ndewu, wantu wiza kulawa wega zoseri, wamlaviyiti Paulu kunja Kunumba nkulu ya Mlungu, na palaa panu milyangu itatwa ya Numba nkulu ya Mlungu.
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,
Waweriti kala kumlaga kumbiti visoweru vimwizira mkulu gwa wanjagila wa shiroma kuwera Yerusalemu yoseri iweriti imema ndewu.
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.
Kamu kamu mkulu gwa njagira kawatola wanjagila na mkulu gwa wanjagila, kashigendera shipinga sha wantu. Nawomberi pawamwoniti mkulu gwa njagira na wanjagila, waleka kumkoma Paulu.
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,
Mkulu gwa jeshi kamgenderiti Paulu, kambata na kuamuwa wamtawi minyololu mushimba. Shakapanu kawakosiiti, “Ndo muntu gaa ayu, na katenda shishi?”
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,
Wamonga mshipinga sha wantu shilii waweriti wankubwera shintu ashi na wamonga shintu shilii. Toziya ya ndewu ayi. Mkulu gwa wanjagila kapofola kulimana shawuli kamili. Hangu, kaamuwiti wantu wakuwi wamjegi Paulu kuliboma.
35 and when he came on the steps, it happened he was carried by the soldiers, because of the violence of the multitude,
Paulu pakasokiti palukweneru, wanjagila wampapiti toziya ya ndewu ya wantu.
36 for the crowd of the people was following after, crying, “Away with him.”
Toziya wantu mushipinga shikulu wamfatiti pawabotanga, “gumlagiri patali!”
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?
Pawaweriti wankumwingiziya muboma, Paulu kamluwiti mkulu gwa wajengeni kalonga, “Weza kutakula shintu?” Mkulu gwa njagira ulii kamwankula, “Hashi, gushimana shigiriki?”
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?”
“Kwani gwenga ndo ulii Mmisri ulii mashana hera kayanjishiti ungondu na kawalonguziya majahili elufu msheshi mpaka kushiwala?”
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.”
Paulu kankula, “Neni ndo Myawudi, mwiwuka gwa Tarisu pa Kilikiya, neni ndo mwiwuka gwa lushi lwalumanikana. Shondi nukuluwa, gunekeziyi ntakuli na wantu.”
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:
Mkulu ulii gwa wanjagila kamjimira. Hangu Paulu kagolokiti panani pa lukweneru, kawapungira mawoku wantu walii, na pawalikaliti jiii, kanja kuyowera nawomberi kwa Shiebraniya.
