Acts 9
1 But Saul, still breathing threats and slaughter against the talmidim of the Lord, went to the cohen hagadol,
Nambu lukumbi lwenulo, Sauli ayonjokisi kuvayogofya kwa kuvakoma vamulanda va Bambu. Akahamba kwa Mteta Mkulu,
2 and asked for letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
akayupa balua ya kummanyisa kwa nyumba za kukonganekela Vayawudi zezavi ku Damasko, muni akavakolela vandu vevilanda Njila ya Bambu, vagosi amala vadala, avakamula na kuvaleta ku Yelusalemu.
3 As he traveled, it happened that he got close to Damascus, and suddenly a light from the sky shone around him.
Sauli peavi munjila papipi kuhika ku Damasko, chigafula lumuli kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga lukamtindila kumlangasa mwene pandi zoha.
4 And he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?"
Sauli akagwa pahi ndi akayuwana lwami lukumjovela, “Sauli, Sauli! Ndava kyani ukuning'aha?”
5 And he said, "Who are you, Lord?" And he said, "I am Yeshua, whom you are persecuting.
Sauli akakota, “Ndi wayani veve, Bambu?” Na lwami lula lukayangula, “Nene ndi Yesu mweukuning'aha.
6 But rise up, and enter into the city, and you will be told what you must do."
Nambu hinu yima uhamba kumujini, kwenuko ndi kwewijoviwa chechikugana kuchihenga.”
7 The men who traveled with him stood speechless, hearing the sound, but seeing no one.
Vandu vevavi mulugendu pamonga na Sauli vayimili nuu ndava ya kukangaswa, vayuwini lwami lula nambu vamuwene lepi mundu yoyoha.
8 Saul arose from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could not see anything. They led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.
Sauli akayinuka, peagubukwili mihu gaki, nakuhotola kulola, hinu vandu vevavi mulugendu nawu vakamkamula chiwoko kumlongosa mbaka ku Damasko.
9 He was without sight for three days, and neither ate nor drank.
Sauli atamili magono gadatu changalola, na lukumbi lwenulo lwoha atamii changalya chindu amala kunywa chindu chochoha.
10 Now there was a certain talmid at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, "Ananias." And he said, "Look, it's me, Lord."
Damasko kula ndi kwavili na msadika mmonga liina laki Anania. Mwenuyo akemeliwi kujovewa na Bambu mumawono, “Anania!” Mwene akayidika, “Nivii apa, Bambu.”
11 The Lord said to him, "Arise, and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judah for one named Saul, a man of Tarsus. For look, he is praying,
Mwene Bambu akamjovela, “Ujitendelekahi uhamba kunjila yeyikemelewa Selede mbaka kunyumba ya Yuda ukotayi kumvala mundu yula mweahumili ku Taso, liina laki Sauli. Hinu akumuyupa Chapanga,
12 and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias coming in, and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight."
na Sauli amali kuloleswa mumaono na Bambu, kuvya mundu mweikemiwa Anania avi kuyingila mugati na kumvikila mawoko muni alola kavili.”
13 But Ananias answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your kadoshim at Jerusalem.
Nambu Anania akayangula, “Bambu, vandu vamahele nivayuwini mambu gakumvala mundu uyu, niyuwini gahakau neju geavahengili vamsadika vaku ku Yelusalemu kula.
14 Here he has authority from the chief cohanim to bind all who call on your name."
Na hinu vamteta vakulu vampeli uhotola Sauli abwela kuni ku Damasko kuvakamula voha vevakukusadika veve.”
15 But the Lord said to him, "Go your way, for he is my chosen vessel to bear my name before the nations and kings, and the children of Israel.
Nambu Bambu akamjovela Anania, “Uhamba ndu, muni mwenuyo nimuhagwili muni anihengela, kukokosa ndava ya liina langu kwa vandu vangali Vayawudi na vankosi vavi na kwa vandu va Isilaeli.
16 For I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name's sake."
Namwene yati nikumlangisa mambu gamahele gegakumgana kung'aiswa ndava yangu.”
17 Ananias departed, and entered into the house. Laying his hands on him, he said, "Brother Saul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me, that you may receive your sight, and be filled with the Ruach ha-Kodesh."
Hinu Anania akahamba mbaka panyumba yeniyo, akayingila mugati, kangi akamvikila mawoko Sauli. Akamjovela “Mlongo Sauli, Bambu Yesu ndi mweanitumili, mwene akuhumalili pawakavili munjila kubwela kuni, anitumili nene muni uhotola kulola kavili na kumemeswa Mpungu Msopi.”
18 Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was immersed.
Bahapo vindu ngati magagau vikagwa pahi kuhuma mumihu mwa Sauli, ndi akalola kavili. Hinu akayima, akabatiziwa,
19 He took food and was strengthened. He stayed several days with the talmidim who were at Damascus.
na peamali kulya chakulya makakala gaki gakamuwuyila. Sauli atamili pamonga na vawuliwa magono gadebe ku Damasko kula.
20 Immediately in the synagogues he proclaimed Yeshua, that he is the Son of God.
Bahapo akatumbula kukokosa munyumba za kukonganekela Vayawudi, kuvya Yesu ndi Mwana wa Chapanga.
21 All who heard him were amazed, and said, "Is not this he who in Jerusalem made havoc of those who called on this name? And he had come here intending to bring them bound before the chief cohanim."
Vandu voha vevamyuwini vakakangasa, vakakota, “Wu, mundu mwenuyu lepi yula mweavakomili vandu vala vevamuyupayi kwa liina la Yesu wa ku Yelusalemu? Na ndava ya mpangu wenuwo ndi abwela penapa, avakamula vandu na kuvapeleka kwa vamteta vakulu!”
22 But Saul increased more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, proving that this is the Messiah.
Sauli akayonjokeseka ukekesi na makakala, ndava ya kujova hotohoto kuvya Yesu ndi Kilisitu, Vayawudi va ku Damasko luhala lukavayaga.
23 When many days were fulfilled, the Jews conspired together to kill him,
Pagamaliki magono gamahele, Vayawudi vakakonganeka na kukita mpangu wa kumkoma Sauli.
24 but their plot became known to Saul. They watched the gates both day and night that they might kill him,
Nambu Sauli ayuwini mpangu wavi. Kilu na muhi vamlindili mumilyangu ya kuyingalila kumujini muni vahotola kumkoma.
25 but his talmidim took him by night, and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
Lukumbi lwa kilu vawuliwa vaki vakamtola na kumhulusa pahi mugati ya lidengu livaha mufwasi ya luwumba.
26 When Saul had come to Jerusalem, he tried to join himself to the talmidim; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a talmid.
Sauli pahaikili ku Yelusalemu akalinga kujiwunga na vawuliwa vala. Nambu vandu voha vamyogwipi vamsadiki lepi kuvya mwene ndi mulanda wa chakaka.
27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the emissaries, and declared to them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Yeshua.
Kangi Banaba akamtola Sauli na kumpeleka kwa vamitumi, akavadandaulila kumvala Sauli cheamuwene Bambu munjila, na Bambu chealongili nayu. Mewawa avadandaulili kuvya Sauli cheahotwili kukokosa muuhotola wa Yesu changali wogohi, ku Damasko kula.
28 He was with them coming in and going out in Jerusalem, speaking boldly in the name of the Lord.
Hinu Sauli akatama pamonga nawu, akagendelela pa Yelusalemu poha kuni ikokosa liina la Bambu changali wogohi.
29 He spoke and disputed against the Hellenists, but they were seeking to kill him.
Mewawa alongili na kuhutana na Vayawudi vevilongela Chigiliki, nambu vene vapangili kumkoma.
30 When the brothers knew it, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him off to Tarsus.
Valongo vala pevayuwini mpangu wenuwo, vakamtola Sauli na kuhamba nayu ku Kaisalia ndi vakamtuma ahamba ku Taso.
31 So the congregation throughout all Judea and Galil and Samaria had peace, and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
Lukumbi lwenulo msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu vakavya na uteke na mumiji yoha ya ku Yudea na ku Galilaya na ku Samaliya. Layendalili kukula mukuyupa Bambu na kuyonjokeseka na kutangatiliwa na Mpungu Msopi.
32 It happened, as Peter went throughout all those parts, he came down also to the kadoshim who lived at Lydda.
Petili peavi mulugendu kila pandi mewa avahikilili vandu va Chapanga vevatamayi kumuji wa Luda.
33 There he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden for eight years, because he was paralyzed.
Kwenuko akamkolili mundu mmonga liina laki Ainea mweavi na utamu wa kupola higa, ndi agonili pa mpasa mulukumbi lwa miyaka nane.
34 Peter said to him, "Aeneas, Yeshua the Messiah heals you. Get up and make your bed." Immediately he arose.
Petili akamjovela, “Ainea, Yesu Kilisitu akukulamisa. Yimuka, ujitandikila mpasa waku.” Bahapo Ainea akayima.
35 All who lived at Lydda and in Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.
Vandu voha va ku Luda na ku Saloni pavawene Ainea, vakamuwuyila Bambu.
36 Now there was at Joppa a certain talmid named Tabitha (which when translated, means Dorcas). This woman was full of good works and tzedakah which she did.
Kumuji wa Yopa kwavili na mulanda mmonga mdala liina laki Tabita, kwa Chigiliki ndi Doka mana yaki huluku. Mdala mwenuyo ahengayi mambu ga kumganisa Chapanga na kuvatangatila vangangu.
37 It happened in those days that she fell sick, and died. When they had washed her, they placed her in an upper chamber.
Magono genago alwalili na kufwa. Hinu vandu vayisambisi higa yaki, vakamgonesa kugolofa.
38 As Lydda was near Joppa, the talmidim, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him, imploring him not to delay in coming to us.
Muji wa Luda wavi papipi na muji wa Yopa, hinu vamsadika vala pevayuwini kuvya Petili avi kwenuko, ndi vakavatuma vandu vavili na ujumbi uwu, “Chondi, ubwela kwitu kanyata.”
39 Peter got up and went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper chamber. All the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
Hinu, Petili akawuka na kulongosana na vajumbi vala, pevamali kuhika vampeliki kugolofa. Valipwela voha vevavi penapo vamtindili Petili vakavembeneka na kumlangisa magwanda na nyula zoha zeatengenezayi Doka pavi mumi.
40 Peter put them all out, and kneeled down and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, "Tabitha, get up." She opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
Petili avahumisi kuvala vandu voha akafugama akayupa kwa Chapanga. Kangi akahegelela payavi higa pala na kujova, “Tabita, yumuka!” Mwene akagubukula mihu, hinu peamuwene Petili ndi akayinuka na kutama.
41 He gave her his hand, and raised her up. Calling the kadoshim and widows, he presented her alive.
Petili akamkamula chiwoko, akamyinula. Kangi akavakemela vamsadika na valipwela vala ndi akavagotolela kuni avi mumi.
42 And it became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.
Malovi ga lijambu lenilo gadandasiki pandu poha ku Yopa, na vandu vamahele vakamsadika Bambu.
43 It happened, that he stayed many days in Joppa with one Shim'on, a tanner.
Petili atamili ku Yopa kwa magono nunuyu, munyumba ya mundu mweitendelekela vindu vya chikumba liina laki Simoni.
