Acts 8
1 Shaul was consenting to his death. A great persecution arose against the church which was in Urishlim in that day. They were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Yehuda and Samaria, except for the apostles.
Sauli ajhele makubaliano gha kifo kya muene. Legono elu ndo ajhandili kubhatesya kinyume kya kanisa lya lyejhele Yerusalemu; na bhoha jha bhiamini bhabhatawanyiki mu majimbo gha Yudea ni Samaria, isipokujha mitume.
2 Devout men buried Astapanos, and lamented greatly over him.
Bhanu bhacha mungu bhan'syelili Stefano ni kubhomba maombolez mabhaha juu jha muene.
3 But Shaul ravaged the church, entering into every house, and dragged both men and women off to prison.
Lakini Sauli alilizuru likanisa. Alotili nyumba kwa nyumba nikubhabuniza kwibhala bhadala ni bhagosi, ni kubhasopa mu ligereza.
4 Therefore those who were scattered abroad went around proclaiming the word.
Bhabhikeera ambabho bhatawanyiki bado bhalihubiri lilobhi.
5 And Philipus went down to the city of Samaria, and proclaimed to them the Meshikha.
Filipo asalili katika mji bhwa Samaria ni kun'tangasya Kristu okhu.
6 The crowds listened with one accord to the things that were spoken by Philipus, when they heard and saw the signs which he did.
Baada jha makutano kup'eleka ni ishara syaabhombi Filipo; bhakabheka umakini juu jha khela kyaajobhili.
7 For unclean spirits came out of many of those who had them. They came out, crying with a loud voice. Many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed.
Kuhomela apu bhanu bhingi bhabhap'eliki pepo bhachafu bhakabhabhoka bhanu khoni bhilela kwa sauti mbaha, ni bhingi bhabhapoozili ni fiwete bhaponyisibhu.
8 There was great joy in that city.
Na kwajhele ni furaha mbaha mu mji.
9 But there was a certain man, Shimon by name, who used to practice sorcery in the city, and amazed the people of Samaria, making himself out to be some great one,
Lakini pajhele ni munu mmonga mu mji bhola lihina lya muene Simoni ambajhe abhombeghe uhabhi; ambabho abhutimili kubhashangasya bhanu bha taifa la Samaria, wakati ijobha kujha muene ndo munu muhimu.
10 to whom they all listened, from the least to the greatest, saying, "This man is that power of God which is called Great."
Bhasamaria bhoha kuhomela bhana hata bhabhaha, bhakamp'elekesya, bhakajobha, “Munu ojho ndo jhela nghofu jha K'yara ambajho ndo mbaha.”
11 They listened to him, because for a long time he had amazed them with his sorceries.
Bhakamp'elekesya, kwa ndabha abhesyangese mda mrefu kwa uhabhi bhwa muene.
12 But when they believed Philipus as he preached good news concerning the Kingdom of God and the name of Yeshua Meshikha, they were baptized, both men and women.
Lakini wakati bhakyeriri kujha Filipo ahubiriri juu jha ufalme bhwa K'yara ni juu jhalihina lya Yesu Kristu, bhabatisibhu bhagosi kwa bhadala.
13 Shimon himself also believed. Being baptized, he continued with Philipus. Seeing signs and great miracles occurring, he was amazed.
Ni Simoni muene akyeriri; baada jha kubatisibhwa ajhendelili kujha ni Filipo; bho abhuene ishara ni miujiza jhaijhele jhibhombekeghe, ashangele.
14 Now when the apostles who were at Urishlim heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Kipha and Yukhanan to them,
Wakati mitume bha Yerusalemu bho bhap'eliki kujha samaria ipokili lilobhi lya K'yara bhakabhautma Petro ni Yohana.
15 who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Rukha d'Qudsha;
Wakati bhiselela bhakabhaombela; kujha bhampokelayi Roho mtakatifu.
16 for he had not yet fallen upon any of them. They had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Yeshua.
Mpaka mda obhu, Roho mtakatifu ajhele akona kubhaselelela hata mmonga ghwa bhene; bhabatisibhu lu kwa lihina lya Bwana Yesu.
17 Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Rukha d'Qudsha.
Ndipo Petro ni Yohana bhakabhabhekela mabhoko ni bhene bhakampokela Roho mtakatifu.
18 Now when Shimon saw that the Rukha was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money,
Wakati Simoni abhwena Roho mtakatifu abhosibhu kupetelakubhekibhwa mabhoko ni mitume; alondeghe kubhapela hela,
19 saying, "Give me also this power, that whomever I lay my hands on may receive the Rukha d'Qudsha."
Akajobha, “Nipelayi nghofu ejhe, ili kila jha nibetakumbeka mabhoko paokelayi Roho mtakatifu.”
20 But Kipha said to him, "May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money.
Lakini Petro akan'jobhela; hela jha jhobhi pamonga ni bhebhe ijhaghanikilayi patali, kwa ndabha udhanili kujha karama jha K'yara jhipalikana kwa hela.
21 You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right before God.
Ujhelepi ni sehemu kulijambo e'le, n'nofu lepi mbele sya K'yara.
22 Repent therefore of this, your wickedness, and ask the Lord if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you.
Hivyo basi, tubuayi maovu gha jhobhi ni kun'soka K'yara labda wibeta kusamehebhwa fikra sya muoyo ghwa jhobhi.
23 For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bondage of iniquity."
Kwa maana nibhona ujhele mu sumu jha bhuchungu ni kifungu kya dhambi.”
24 Shimon answered, "Pray for me to the Lord, that none of the things which you have spoken happen to me."
Simoni akajibu ni kujobha, “Mun'sokayi Bwana kwa ndabha jha nene kwa kujha mambo ghoha ghamulongelili ghibhwesya kunitokela.
25 They therefore, when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, returned to Urishlim, and preached the Good News to many villages of the Samaritans.
Wakati Petro ni Yohana bho bhashuhudili ni kuhubiri lilobhi lya Bwana, bhakakerebhuka Yerusalemu kwa njela ejhu; bhahubiri injili mu fijiji fingi fya bhasamaria.
26 But an angel of the Lord spoke to Philipus, saying, "Arise, and go toward the south to the way that goes down from Urishlim to Gahza. This is a desert."
Basi malaika bha Bwana anenili ni Filipo ni kujobha, “Jhangasiajhi na ulotayi kusini kwa njela jhajhilota kusika jha Yerusalemu kulotela Gaza.” (Njela ejhe jhijhe mujangwa).
27 And he arose and went. And look, there was a man from Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Kandake, the queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge over all her treasure. He had come to Urishlim to worship,
Akajhangasya ni kulota. Langayi, kwajhele ni munu ghwa Ethiopia, towashi mwenye mamlaka mbaha pasi pa kandese; Malkia ghwa Ethiopia. Jhaabhekibhu panani pa hazina jha muene jhioha; nu muene akalota Yerusalemu kuabudu.
28 and he was returning. And sitting in his chariot, he was reading the prophet Eshaya.
Wakati ikerebhuka atamili mu ligari lyamuene isoma chuo kya nabii Isaya.
29 And the Rukha said to Philip, "Go and join up with that chariot."
Roho akajobha ni Filipo, “Hegelelayi karibu ni ligari e'le ukakamulana nalu.
30 And running near, Philip heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, "Do you understand what you are reading?"
“Efyo Filipo akalota mbio, akampeleka isoma mu chuo kya nabii Isaya; akajobha, umanyili kya wisoma?”
31 He said, "How can I, unless someone explains it to me?" So he invited Philipus to come up and sit with him.
Muethiopia akajobha, “nibebhwesya bhuli munu kama andongwisi lepi?” Akan'sihi Filipo akwela mu ligari ni kutama pamonga ni muene.
32 Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this, "He was led like a sheep to the slaughter, and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he does not open his mouth.
Henu lifungu lya maandiku lya asomeghe Muethiopia ndo e'le, Alongosibhu kama likondoo kulota kuchinjibhwa ku machinjioni; ni kama likondoo agudeme kinunu, afunguililepi kinywa kya muene.
33 In his humiliation his justice was taken away. Who will declare his generation? For his life is taken from the earth."
Kwa huzunishibhwa kwa muene hukumu jha muene jhabhosibhu, niani jha ibetakujhelesya kizazi kya muene? maisha muene ghabhosibhu munchi.”
34 The eunuch answered Philipus, "Who is the prophet talking about? About himself, or about someone else?"
Hivyo towashi akan'kota Filipo, ni kujobha, “nikus'oka, nabii jholeku ilongelibhwa habari sya muene, ni kuhusu muene au sya munu jhongi”?
35 Philipus opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture, preached to him Yeshua.
Filipo ajhandikulongela, abhwanji kwa andiko e'le lya Isaya kun'hubirira habari sya Yesu.
36 And as they went on the way, they came to some water, and the eunuch said, "Look, here is water. What is keeping me from being baptized?"
Bhobhajhe munjela, bhakafika pa masi,' towashi akajobha, “Langayi, pajheni masi apa kheleku kizuila nisibatisibhu?”
37 And he said to him, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Yeshua Meshikha is the Son of God."
Malobhi agha, “Hivyo Muethiopia akajibu “Nikiera kujha Yesu Kristu ndo mwana ghwa K'yara,” ghajhelepi mu maandiku gha muandi). Ndipo Muethiopia akaamuru ligari lijhemayi.
38 He commanded the chariot to stand still, and they both went down into the water, both Philipus and the eunuch, and he baptized him.
Bhakalota mugati mu masi, pamonga ni Filipo ni towashi, Filipoakambatisya.
39 When they came up out of the water, the Rukha of the Lord caught Philipus away, and the eunuch did not see him any more, for he went on his way rejoicing.
Wakati bhofobhwiki mu masi, Roho ghwa Bwana jhampeliki Filipo patali; tawashi ambwene lepi, akalota njela jha muene khoni ishangilila.
40 But Philipus was found at Azotus. Passing through, he preached the Good News to all the cities, until he came to Qesarya.
Lakini Filipo akahomela Azoto. Apetili mu mkoa bhola ni kuhubiri injili mu miji ghioha mpaka bho afikili Kaisaria.
