Acts 28
1 When we had escaped, then we learned that the island was called Malta.
Mpotwalapuluka ne kushika cena ku mutunta, bantu bakusa balatwambileti, kuno ku mutunta nkomubele nipa nsumbu ikute kukwiweti Melita.
2 The natives showed us uncommon kindness; for they kindled a fire, and received us all, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.
Bantu aba balikuba baina myoyo. Balatutambula cena, balatukunkila mulilo pakwinga kwalikuba mpepo cebo ca mfula yali kuloka.
3 But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and placed them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.
Paulo walaya kutema muleye wankuni. Lino cindi ncalabika muleye wa nkuni uwo pamulilo, njoka yabululu yalikubamo mpoyalanyumfwa kulungula, yalasolomokamo ne kumuluma Paulo kucikasa.
4 When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said one to another, "No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet Justice has not allowed to live."
Bantu ba uko mpobalabona njoka kaili yalelela ku cikasa ca Paulo, balambeti, “Cakubinga muntuyu ni kapondo, nambi wapuluka palwenje, lesa wetu wabululami nkasuni kwambeti uyu muntu ekale ne buyumi.”
5 However he shook off the creature into the fire, and was not harmed.
Paulo waisansamwina pamulilo, uliya kulingwapo sobwe.
6 But they expected that he would have swollen or fallen down dead suddenly, but when they watched for a long time and saw nothing bad happen to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.
Bantu balikuyeyeti nashimbe, nambi kufwa kwakwinsa kwalamuka. Nomba mpobalalangila kwacindi citali, ne kuboneti paliya cilenshiki pali Paulo, balambeti, “Ni lesa!”
7 Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief official of the island, named Publius, who received us, and courteously entertained us for three days.
Capepi napo mpotwalikuba, palikuba mabala amutangunishi wapa nsumbu ya Melita walikukwiweti Pabulosi. Walatutambula ca makasa abili, twalekala nendi masuba atatu.
8 It happened that the father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery. Paul entered in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.
Baishi Pabulosi balikuba bona kabakolwa bulwashi bwa kulungula mubili, kayi ne cinkumbe. Paulo walaya mu ng'anda mobalikuba, walapaila nekubika makasa akendi palyendibo, popelapo balasengulwa.
9 Then when this was done, the rest also who had diseases in the island came, and were cured.
Panyuma mpocalenshika ici bantu bonse balikukolwa malwashi pansumbu apa, balatatika kwisa kuli Paulo, kayi balasengulwa.
10 They also honored us with many honors, and when we sailed, they put on board the things that we needed.
Balatulemekesha munshila shingi. Mpotwalengila mu bwato bunene kwambeti twenga, balatubikilamo bintu nabimbi byalikuyandika pa bulwendo bwetu.
11 After three months, we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose sign was "The Twin Brothers."
Panyuma pakwikalako myenshi itatu, twalatanta bwato bunene bwalikufuma ku Alekisandiliya, kuntangu kwa bwato ubu kwalikuba cikoshano ya “Balesa Bampundu.” Ubu bwato bunene bwalikuba apa pa nsumbu cindi conse ca mupewo.
12 Touching at Syracuse, we stayed there three days.
Mpotwalashika ku munshi wa Sulakusa, twalekalako masuba atatu.
13 From there we cast off and arrived at Rhegium. After one day, a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,
Kufuma uko, twalenda ne kuya kushika ku munshi wa Legiyamu. Busuba bwalakonkapo, lukupwe lwalatatika kupupula kufumina ku musansa. Pabusuba bwatubili twalashika pa cito ca Potiyolo.
14 where we found brothers, and were entreated to stay with them for seven days. So we came to Rome.
Uko twalacanako banse abo balatusengeti, twikale nabo kwa nsondo imo. Twalatatika bulwendo bwetu bwa mapwililisho pakuya kushika ku Loma.
15 From there the brothers, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God, and took courage.
Banse baku Loma mpobalanyumfweti tuli munshila, balatucinsha mpaka kushika ku musena walikukwiweti, “Cibansa camakwebo ca Apiya,” Kayi ne kumusena kwalikukwiweti, “Manda Atatu Abensu.” Paulo mpwalababona, walalumba Lesa kayi walayuminishiwa.
16 When we entered into Rome, Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.
Mpotwalashika ku Loma, Paulo balamusuminisha kwikala enka kalondwa ne mushilikali.
17 It happened that after three days he called together those who were the Jewish leaders. When they had come together, he said to them, "I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,
Mpopalapita masuba atatu, Paulo walakuwa batangunishi ba Ciyuda kwambeti abandike nabo. Mpobalabungana pamo, Paulo walabambileti, “Baislayeli baname, nikukabeti paliya caipa ncondalensa kuli banse betu, nambi kutoteka miyambo ya bamashali betu bakulu kulu, Bayuda balansungisha mu Yelusalemu, ne kuntwala mu makasa aba Loma.
18 who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.
Baloma mpobalanjipusha mipusho kwambeti benshibe makani ncabele, balayanda kunsungulula pakwinga baliya kucana mulandu ngondelela kufwilapo.
19 But when the Jews spoke against it, I was forced to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.
Nsombi Bayuda nkabalikuyandeti ame nsungululwe sobwe, ecebo cakendi ndalasengeti Mwami Mukulene wa ku Loma kuno awomboloshe mulandu wakame. Nikukabeco ame ndiya mfundilishi ne bantu bamushobo wakame sobwe.
20 For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain."
Ecebo cakendi ncondamukuwili kwambeti ng'ambe ne njamwe. Ame ndasungwa ncetani cebo ca muntuyo ngobalapembelelenga Baislayeli bonse.”
21 They said to him, "We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.
Balo balakumbuleti, “Tuliya kutambulapo makalata kufuma ku Yudeya alambanga makani akobe. Kayi paliya banse betu bafuma uko kwisa kutwambila makani aipa pali njobe sobwe.
22 But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against."
Nomba tulayandanga kulinyumfwila tobene miyeyo yakobe, pakwinga tucinshi kwambeti kulikonse bantu balambangeti mu likoto mobele nkalilipo cena sobwe.”
23 When they had appointed him a day, many people came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying about the Kingdom of God, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets, from morning until evening.
Neco balabamba busuba bumbi bwa kwisa kubandika ne Paulo, Bangi bali kwisa kung'anda nkwali kwikala. Kufuma mumene mene mpaka mansailo, Paulo wali kubasansululwila ne kubakambaukila makani a Bwami bwa Lesa. Walelekesha kubambila makani alambanga pali Yesu kwambeti bashome, pa kubambila byalembwa mu Milawo ya Mose ne mu mabuku alalembwa ne bashinshimi bakulukulu.
24 Some believed the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved.
Nabambi batangunishi balashoma makani ngalikwamba Paulo, nsombi nabambi baliya kwashoma sobwe.
25 When they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one word, "The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah, the prophet, to your fathers,
Lino nkapalikuba kunyumfwana cena pakati pabo, neco bapalangana Paulo mpwalamba maswi akupwililisheti, “Cakubinga Mushimu Uswepa walamba cena kupitila muli mushinshimi Yesaya, pa kwambila bamashali betu bakulukulu eti,
26 saying, 'Go to this people, and say, in hearing, you will hear, but will in no way understand. In seeing, you will see, but will in no way perceive.
“Koya ku bantu aba ubambileti, kunyumfwa nimukanyumfwenga, nsombi nteti mukanyumfwishishenga sobwe. Kubona nimukabonenga, nsombi nteti mukabonesheshenga sobwe.
27 For this people's heart has grown callous. Their ears are dull of hearing. Their eyes they have closed. Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, and I would heal them.'
Pakwinga bantu aba bayuma myoyo, kayi matwi ashinka, ne menso abo acalika. Necabuleco, ne balalangishisha cena, ne kunyumfwishisha cena, ne kuba ne myoyo ilayandishishinga kwinshiba kwambeti bashiye bwipishi bwabo, kwambeti Ame ndibasengule.”
28 "Be it known therefore to you, that the salvation of God is sent to the nations. They will also listen."
Paulo walapitilisha kubambileti, “Mwelela kwinshibeti beshikukambauka makani a lupulusho lwa Lesa, batumwa ku bantu bamishobo naimbi, pakwinga balo nibakanyumfwe!”
29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, having a great dispute among themselves.
Paulo mpwalapwisha kwambeco Bayuda balafumapo kabaya kutotekeshana cangofu bene bonka.
30 And Paul stayed two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who were coming to him,
Paulo walekala kwa byaka bibili mu ng'anda njali kusonkela, bonse bantu balikwisa kumubona wali kubatambula cena.
31 proclaiming the Kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus (the) Messiah with all boldness, without hindrance.
Walikukambauka sha Bwami bwa Lesa, ne kubeyisha sha Mwami Yesu Klistu kwakubula buyowa, kayi paliya muntu walelekesha ku mukanisha sobwe.
