Acts 28
1 And having been saved, then they knew that the island is called Malta,
Patamali kuhika bwina kundumba ndi tamanyili kuvya chisiwa chila chikemelewa Malita.
2 and the foreigners were showing us no ordinary kindness, for having kindled a fire, they received us all, because of the pressing rain, and because of the cold;
Takangisi ndava vakolonjinji vatihengili gabwina neju tete. Fula ndi yatumbula kutonya na kwavili na mbepu, hinu vakoyili motu na kutigongolela.
3 but Paul having gathered together a quantity of sticks, and having laid [them] on the fire, a viper—having come out of the heat—fastened on his hand.
Pauli anongili ndwika udebe wa sagala akazikohokea pamotu, penapo ndava ya lyoto la motu, limoma lahumalili musagala na lamulumili Pauli muchiwoko na kujikamulisa.
4 And when the foreigners saw the beast hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “Certainly this man is a murderer, whom, having been saved out of the sea, the justice did not permit to live”;
Vala vakolonjinji pavawene limoma lijikamulisi dombeka muchiwoko cha Pauli, vakajovesana, “Chakaka mundu uyu mkomaji, pamonga na kusanguka kufwa munyanja, nambu lihoka litu lelikemiwa ganisa Chapanga likumleka lepi alama.”
5 he then, indeed, having shaken off the beast into the fire, suffered no evil,
Nambu mwene akakung'undila limoma pamotu na alemili lepi hati padebe.
6 and they were expecting him to be about to be inflamed, or to suddenly fall down dead, and they, expecting [it] a long time, and seeing nothing uncommon happening to him, changing [their] minds, said he was a god.
Vandu vala vevalolokesa kuvya yati ihimba amala kugwa pahi na kufwa. Pavalindili mulukumbi lutali changalola kuvya Pauli apatili lepi lijambu loloha lihakau, ndi vakang'anamusa maholo gavi vakujova mwene ndi lihoka.
7 And in the neighborhood of that place were lands of the principal man of the island, by name Publius, who, having received us, courteously lodged [us for] three days;
Papipi na pandu apo pavili na migunda ya Publio, chilongosi wa chisiwa chila. Ndi mwene atigongolili cha uganu na tatamili munyumba yaki mu magono gadatu.
8 and it came to pass, the father of Publius was lying, oppressed with fevers and dysentery, to whom Paul, having entered and having prayed, having laid [his] hands on him, healed him;
Hinu, dadi waki Publio agonili palusongwani, ndava ya utamu na kuseka ngasi. Ndi Pauli ahambili kumlola na peamali kumuyupa Chapanga, akavika mawoko gaki panani ya mtamu ndi akamlamisa.
9 this, therefore, being done, also the others in the island having sicknesses were coming and were healed;
Palahumalili lijambu lenilo, vatamu voha muchisiwa chenicho vabwelili na kulamiswa mewa.
10 who also honored us with many honors, and we setting sail—they were loading [us] with the things that were necessary.
Vandu vatipelili njombi ndalindali lukumbi patatumbwili kavili lugendu vayingisi vindu vyoha vyetaganilli muwatu.
11 And after three months, we set sail in a ship (that had wintered in the island) of Alexandria, with the sign Dioscuri,
Payamaliki miyehi yidatu tatumbwili kavili lugendu muwatu wewihuma ku Alekisandalia yeyihongoliwi chimong'omong'o ya “Vachapanga Mapaha.” Watu wenuwo wayimili muchisiwa icho mulukumbi lwoha lwa mbepu.
12 and having landed at Syracuse, we remained three days,
Patahikili pamuji wa Silakusa, tatamili penapo mu magono gadatu.
13 there having gone around, we came to Rhegium, and after one day, a south wind having sprung up, the second [day] we came to Puteoli,
Kuhuma kwenuko tagendili na kuhika kumuji wa Legio. Chilau yaki, mpungu wa kusini watumbwili kubuma, ndi mulugendu lwa magono gavili tahikili pamuji wa Putioli.
14 where, having found brothers, we were called on to remain with them seven days, and thus we came to Rome;
Kwenuko tavakoli valongo vamsadika, ndi vatigongolili titama nawu mulijuma limonga. Kangi tayendalili na lugendu kuhika ku Loma.
15 and there, the brothers having heard the things concerning us, came forth to meet us, as far as [the] Forum of Appius, and Three Taverns—whom Paul having seen, having given thanks to God, took courage.
Vamsadika va ku Loma vala pevayuwini malovi ga kutivala tete, vakabwela kutali pandu pakugulisila vindu la Apio na Munyumba Zidatu za Vayehe kukonganeka na tete. Pauli peawene akamsengusa Chapanga na kusindimaliswa mtima.
16 And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered up the prisoners to the captain of the barracks, but Paul was permitted to remain by himself, with the soldier guarding him.
Petahikili ku Loma Pauli ayidakiliwi kutama mwene pamonga na linjolinjoli mmonga wa kumlindalila.
17 And it came to pass after three days, Paul called together those who are the principal men of the Jews, and they having come together, he said to them: “Men, brothers, I—having done nothing contrary to the people, or to the customs of the fathers—a prisoner from Jerusalem, was delivered up into the hands of the Romans;
Pagamaliki magono gadatu, Pauli avakemili pamonga vachilongosi va Vayawudi va pandu apo. Pavakonganiki mwene akavajovela, “Valongo vangu, nene nakungiwi muchifungu ku Yelusalemu kula na kugotolewa kwa vandu va ku Loma, nambu nene nahengili lepi chindu chihakau amala kubela mivelu ya vagogo vitu.
18 who having examined me, were willing to release [me], because of their being no cause of death in me,
Valumi pevamali kunikotakesa vaganili kunilekekesa muni nahengili lepi chindu chihakau chechikunigana kukomiwa.
19 and the Jews having spoken against [it], I was constrained to appeal to Caesar—not as having anything to accuse my nation of;
Nambu Vayawudi vala vakabela lijambu ilo, ndi nene nikayupa kuhamuliwa na Nkosi wa ku Loma, nambu navi lepi na chochoha cha kuvatakila vandu va mulima wangu.
20 for this cause, therefore, I called for you to see and to speak with [you], for because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.”
Ndava ya genago ndi nivakemelili tiwonanganayi na kulongela na nyenye, muni nikungiwi minyololo iyi ndava ya lilagizu la Chapanga kwa Isilaeli.”
21 And they said to him, “We neither received letters concerning you from Judea, nor did anyone who came of the brothers declare or speak any evil concerning you,
Vene vakamjovela, “Tete tipokili lepi balua ya kuhuma ku Yudea, mewa kawaka mlongo yoyoha mweahikili kutijovela lasimi amala kulongela chindu chochoha chihakau ndava yaku.
22 and we think it good from you to hear what you think, for indeed, concerning this sect it is known to us that it is spoken against everywhere”;
Nambu tigana kuyuwana maholo gaku wamwene, muni timanya kuvya chikundi chenicho chibelelewa kila pandu.”
23 and having appointed him a day, more of them came to him, to the lodging, to whom he was setting [it] forth, testifying fully the Kingdom of God, persuading them also of the things concerning Jesus, both from the Law of Moses, and the Prophets, from morning until evening,
Hinu vakayidakilana ligono la kukonganeka nayu, vandu vamahele vamhikili peatamili. Kutumbula lukela mbaka kimihi Pauli avadandaulili na kuvajovela ujumbi wa kuuvala Unkosi wa Chapanga, alingili avakulukisi vayidakila mambu ga Yesu kwa kuhengela malagizu ga Bambu geampelili Musa na mayandiku ga vamlota va Chapanga.
24 and some, indeed, were believing the things spoken, and some were not believing.
Vangi pagati yavi vakofyiliwi malovi gaki, nambu vangi vasadiki lepi.
25 And not being agreed with one another, they were going away, Paul having spoken one word, “The Holy Spirit spoke well through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,
Hinu, vakapechengana mumaholo gavi vene kwa vene. Hinu vawukili ndava Pauli, ajovili lijambu limonga, “Mpungu Msopi avajovili chakaka vagogo vinu mu njila ya mlota wa Chapanga Isaya,
26 saying, Go on to this people and say, With hearing you will hear, and you will not understand, and seeing you will see, and you will not perceive,
akajova, ‘Uvahambila vandu ava uvajovela, kuyuwana yati mwiyuwana, nambu nakumanya, kulola yati mwilola, nambu yati mwimanya lepi.
27 for the heart of this people was made obtuse, and with the ears they barely heard, and they closed their eyes, lest they may see with the eyes, and may understand with the heart, and should turn, and I may heal them.
Ndava mitima ya vandu ava yitopa, vadindili makutu gavi, na vakupiki mihu gavi. Ngati lepi kulola kwa mihu gavi ngavayuwini kwa makutu gavi, ngavamanyili kwa luhala lwavi na valeka njila zavi zihakau, kangi nivalamisi.’”
28 Be it known, therefore, to you, that the salvation of God was sent to the nations, these also will hear it”;
Kangi Pauli akajova, “Mmanya kuvya ujumbi wa Chapanga ndava ya kusanguliwa upelikwi kwa vandu vangali Vayawudi. Na vene yati vauyuwanila.”
29 [[and he having said these things, the Jews went away, having much debate among themselves; ]]
Pauli peamali kujova genago, Vayawudi vakawuka, vakakotana gamahele vene kwa vene.
30 and Paul remained an entire two years in his own hired [house], and was receiving all those coming in to him,
Palukumbi lwa miyaka yivili, Pauli atamili munyumba yeapangili mwene, avagongolili munyumba vandu voha vevabwelili kumjambusa.
31 preaching the Kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness—unforbidden.
Avakokosili malovi ga Unkosi wa Chapanga na kuwula vandu ndava ya Bambu Yesu Kilisitu kwa ukekesi na changabesiwa na mundu.
