Acts 13
1 Now in the congregation that was at Antioch there were some prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Shim'on who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
Mukereke yapaAndioki maiva navaprofita navadzidzisi vaiti: Bhanabhasi, Simeoni ainzi Nigeri, Rusiasi wokuSairini, Manaeni (akanga arerwa naHerodhi mubati) naSauro.
2 As they served the Lord and fasted, the Ruach ha-Kodesh said, "Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them."
Pavakanga vachinamata Ishe uye vachitsanya, Mweya Mutsvene akati, “Nditsaurirei Bhanabhasi naSauro kuti vabate basa randakavadanira.”
3 Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
Saka vakati vapedza kutsanya nokunyengetera, vakaisa maoko avo pamusoro pavo vakavatuma.
4 So, being sent out by the Ruach ha-Kodesh, they went down to Seleucia. From there they sailed to Cyprus.
Ava vaviri vakati vatumwa naMweya Mutsvene parwendo rwavo, vakaburuka vakaenda kuSerusia, vakazobvako vakakwira chikepe ndokuenda kuSaipurasi.
5 When they were at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the Jewish synagogues. They had also John as their attendant.
Vakati vasvika paSaramisi, vakaparidza shoko raMwari musinagoge ravaJudha. Johani akanga achivabatsira.
6 When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a Jewish false prophet whose name was Bar-Yeshua,
Vakafamba nomuchiwi chose kudzamara vasvika kuPafosi. Vakasangana neimwe nʼanga yechiJudha ikoko, uye akanga ari muprofita wenhema ainzi Bhari Jesu,
7 who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of understanding. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul, and sought to hear the word of God.
akanga ari muchengeti womubati wenyika ainzi Segio Paurusi. Mubati akanga ari murume akachenjera, akadana Bhanabhasi naSauro nokuti aida kunzwa shoko raMwari.
8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn aside the proconsul from the faith.
Asi Erimasi nʼanga (nokuti ndizvo zvaireva zita rake) akavapikisa akaedza kutsausa mubati uyu pakutenda.
9 But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Ruach ha-Kodesh, fastened his eyes on him,
Ipapo Sauro akanga achinziwo Pauro, azere noMweya Mutsvene akatarisisa Erimasi akati,
10 and said, "Full of all deceit and all fraud, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
“Iwe uri mwana wadhiabhori nomuvengi wezvinhu zvose zvakarurama! Uzere nokunyengera kwose namano akaipa. Hausi kuzorega here kumonyorotsa nzira dzakarurama dzaShe?
11 Now, look, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you will be blind, unable to see the sun for a time." Immediately a mist and darkness fell on him. He went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.
Zvino ruoko rwaShe rwava pamusoro pako. Uchava bofu, uye uchatadza kuona chiedza chezuva kwechinguva.” Pakarepo mhute nerima zvakauya pamusoro pake, akadzivaira pose pose achitsvaka mumwe munhu angamutungamirira.
12 Then the proconsul, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.
Mubati akati aona zvakanga zvaitika akatenda nokuti akashamiswa nedzidziso yezvaShe.
13 Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos, and came to Perga in Pamphylia, and John departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.
Vachibva paPafosi, Pauro navanhu vaaifamba navo vakakwira chikepe vakaenda kuPega muPamufiria, uye vava ikoko Johani akavasiya akadzokera kuJerusarema.
14 But they, passing on from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia. They went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat down.
Vachibva kuPega vakapfuurira kuAndioki yePisidhia. Nomusi weSabata vakapinda musinagoge vakasvikogara pasi.
15 After the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, "Brothers, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, speak."
Mushure mokuverengwa kwoMurayiro naVaprofita, vabati vomusinagoge vakatuma shoko kwavari vachiti, “Hama, kana mune shoko rokukuridzira vanhu, tapota taurai henyu.”
16 Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, "Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen.
Ipapo Pauro akasimuka, akaninira noruoko rwake akati, “Varume veIsraeri nemi mose vedzimwe ndudzi vanonamata Mwari, nditeererei!
17 The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they stayed as foreigners in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm, he led them out of it.
Mwari wavanhu veIsraeri akasarudza madzibaba edu; akaita kuti vanhu vabudirire panguva yavaigara muIjipiti, akavabudisa munyika iyo nesimba guru,
18 For a period of about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.
akava nomwoyo murefu namaitiro avo kwamakore anenge makumi mana vari mugwenga,
19 When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance.
akakunda ndudzi nomwe muKenani akapa nyika yavo kuvanhu vake kuti ive nhaka yavo.
20 All this took about four hundred and fifty years. And after these things he gave them judges, until Samuel the prophet.
Izvi zvakatora makore anenge mazana mana namakumi mashanu. “Shure kwaizvozvi, Mwari akavapa vatongi kusvikira panguva yaSamueri muprofita.
21 Afterward they asked for a king, and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.
Ipapo vanhu vakakumbira mambo, akavapa Sauro mwanakomana waKishi, worudzi rwaBhenjamini, uyo akatonga kwamakore makumi mana.
22 When he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, to whom he also testified, 'I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who will do all my will.'
Shure kwokunge abvisa Sauro, akagadza Dhavhidhi kuti ave mambo wavo. Iye akapupura pamusoro pake achiti, ‘Ndawana Dhavhidhi mwanakomana waJese murume wapamwoyo pangu; iye achaita zvinhu zvose zvandinoda kuti aite.’
23 From this man's offspring, according to his promise, God has brought to Israel a Savior, Yeshua,
“Kubva kuzvizvarwa zvomurume uyu Mwari akavigira vaIsraeri Muponesi Jesu, sezvaakanga avimbisa.
24 before his coming, when John had first preached the immersion of repentance to all the people of Israel.
Jesu asati auya, Johani akaparidza kutendeuka norubhabhatidzo kuvanhu vose veIsraeri.
25 As John was fulfilling his course, he said, 'What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. But look, one comes after me the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.'
Johani paakanga ava kupedzisa basa rake, akati, ‘Munofunga kuti ndini ani? Handizi iye uya. Kwete, asi iye ari kuuya shure kwangu, ndiye wandisingakodzeri kusunungura shangu dzake.’
26 Brothers, children of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, the word of this salvation is sent out to us.
“Hama dzangu, vana vaAbhurahama nemi vedzimwe ndudzi vanotya Mwari, shoko iri roruponeso rakatumirwa kwatiri.
27 For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they did not know him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled them by condemning him.
Vanhu veJerusarema navatongi vavo havana kuziva Jesu, asi pakumupa mhaka kwavo vakazadzisa mashoko avaprofita anoverengwa Sabata rimwe nerimwe.
28 Though they found no cause for death, they still asked Pilate to have him killed.
Kunyange vasina kuwana hwaro chaihwo hwokuti atongerwe rufu, vakakumbira Pirato kuti amuuraye.
29 When they had fulfilled all things that were written about him, they took him down from the tree, and placed him in a tomb.
Vakati vapedza zvose zvakanga zvakanyorwa pamusoro pake, vakamuburutsa pamuti vakamuradzika muguva.
30 But God raised him from the dead,
Asi Mwari akamumutsa kubva kuvakafa,
31 and he was seen for many days by those who came up with him from Galil to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.
uye akaonekwa mazuva mazhinji naavo vakafamba naye kubva kuGarirea kusvikira kuJerusarema. Ndivo zvapupu zvake zvino kuvanhu vokwedu.
32 We bring you good news of the promise made to the fathers,
“Tiri kukuudzai nhau dzakanaka kuti: Zvakavimbiswa madzibaba edu naMwari,
33 that God has fulfilled for us, their children, in that he raised up Yeshua. As it is also written in the second psalm, 'You are my Son. Today I have become your Father.'
akazvizadzisa kwatiri isu, vana vavo, nokumutsa Jesu kubva kuvakafa. Sezvazvakanyorwa muPisarema rechipiri zvichinzi: “‘Ndiwe Mwanakomana wangu; nhasi ndava baba vako.’
34 "Concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: 'I will give to you the faithful sacred things of David.'
Chokwadi chokuti Mwari akamumutsa kubva kuvakafa, akasazomboora, chinotaurwa mumashoko aya anoti: “‘Ndichakupa maropafadzo matsvene, uye echokwadi akavimbiswa kuna Dhavhidhi.’
35 Therefore he says also in another psalm, 'You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.'
Nokudaro zvinotaurwa pane rimwe pisarema kuti: “‘Hamungaregi Mutsvene wenyu achiona kuora.’
36 For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was placed with his fathers, and saw decay.
“Nokuti Dhavhidhi akati aita kuda kwaMwari pamazuva ake, akavata; akavigwa namadzibaba ake uye muviri wake wakaora.
37 But he whom God raised up saw no decay.
Asi uyo akamutswa naMwari haana kuona kuora.
38 Be it known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you forgiveness of sins,
“Naizvozvo, hama dzangu, ndinoda kuti muzive kuti kubudikidza naJesu, kukanganwirwa kwezvivi kunoparidzwa kwamuri.
39 and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the Law of Moses.
Kubudikidza naye munhu wose anotenda anoruramiswa pazvinhu zvose zvamanga musingagoni kururamiswa pazviri nomurayiro waMozisi.
40 So beware, lest what is said in the Prophets should come about:
Chenjerai kuti zvakataurwa navaprofita zvirege kuitika kwamuri, zvinoti:
41 'Look, you scoffers, and be amazed, and perish; for I am working a work in your days, a work which you will not believe, if one tells it to you.'"
“‘Tarirai imi vaseki, mushamiswe uye muparare, nokuti ndiri kuzoita chimwe chinhu pamazuva enyu chamusingazombotendi, kunyange dai mumwe munhu akakuudzai.’”
42 So when they went out they urged them to speak about these things on the next Sabbath.
Pauro naBhanabhasi vava kubuda musinagoge, vanhu vakavakoka kuti vazotaurazve pamusoro pezvinhu izvi paSabata raizotevera.
43 Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.
Gungano rakati rapararira, vazhinji vavaJudha navamwe vakanga vatendeukira kuchiJudha vakatevera Pauro naBhanabhasi, ivo vakataura navo uye vakavakurudzira kuti varambe vari munyasha dzaMwari.
44 The next Sabbath almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of the Lord.
PaSabata rakatevera rinenge guta rose rakaungana kuzonzwa shoko raShe.
45 But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and reviled him.
VaJudha vakati vaona vanhu vazhinji, vakazadzwa negodo vakataura zvakaipa pamusoro pezvakanga zvichitaurwa naPauro.
46 Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, and said, "It was necessary that God's word should be spoken to you first. Since indeed you thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, look, we turn to the non-Jewish people. (aiōnios g166)
Ipapo Pauro naBhanabhasi vakavapindura vasingatyi vakati, “Zvanga zvakafanira kuti titaure shoko raMwari kwamuri imi kutanga. Sezvo mariramba uye mukasazviona savanhu vakafanira upenyu husingaperi, tava kuenda zvino kune veDzimwe Ndudzi. (aiōnios g166)
47 For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, 'I have set you as a light to the nations, that you may bring salvation to the farthest part of the earth.'"
Nokuti izvi ndizvo zvakarayirwa kwatiri naShe achiti: “‘Ndakakuitai chiedza kune veDzimwe Ndudzi, kuti muvigire migumo yenyika ruponeso.’”
48 As the non-Jewish people heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord. As many as were appointed to everlasting life believed. (aiōnios g166)
VeDzimwe Ndudzi vakati vanzwa izvozvo, vakafara uye vakakudza shoko raShe; uye vose vakanga vakatarirwa upenyu husingaperi vakatenda. (aiōnios g166)
49 The Lord's word was spread abroad throughout all the region.
Shoko raShe rakapararira mudunhu rose.
50 But the Jews stirred up the devout women of prominence and the chief men of the city, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and threw them out of their borders.
Asi vaJudha vakakurudzira vakadzi vaitya Mwari uye vaikudzikana navarume vairemekedzwa veguta, vakamutsira Pauro naBhanabhasi kutambudzwa, uye vakavadzinga mudunhu ravo.
51 But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.
Saka vakazunza guruva patsoka dzavo vachiratidza kusafara pamusoro pavo ndokubva vaenda kuIkoniamu.
52 The talmidim were filled with joy with the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
Uye vadzidzi vakazadzwa nomufaro uye noMweya Mutsvene.
