< Acts 1 >

1 The first account I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Yeshua began both to do and to teach,
Mlongu Teufili, mushintola sha kwanja nembiti kuusu vitwatira vyoseri Yesu vyakatenditi na kufunda kwanjira kwanja.
2 until the day in which he was received up, after he had given commandment through the Ruach ha-Kodesh to the emissaries whom he had chosen.
Mpaka lishaka lilii pakanyasulitwi kugenda kumpindi kwa Mlungu. Pamberi pa kunyasulwa kugenda kumpindi, kawapananiti malagaliru kupitira Rohu Mnanagala wantumintumi walii yakawasyaguliti.
3 To these he also showed himself alive after he suffered, by many proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days, and speaking about God's Kingdom.
Pakuhowa kwakuwi, yomberi kalilanguziyiti mweni kwa womberi na kulilanguziya nakaka kuwera mweni ka mkomu. Yomberi kawalawiriti kwa shipindi sha mashaka malongu msheshi na yomberi kayoweriti nawu kuusu Ufalumi wa Mlungu.
4 Being assembled together with them, he commanded them, "Do not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which you heard from me.
Shipindi shimu yomberi pakaweriti nawu, kawapananiti lagaliru ali, “Namlawa amu Yerusalemu, su muliheperi lagilu lya Tati, lilii lyampikaniriti neni nonga kuusu visoweru vyakuwi.
5 For John indeed immersed in water, but you will be immersed in the Ruach ha-Kodesh not many days from now."
Toziya Yohani kawabatiziti kwa mashi, kumbiti pa mashaka gavuwa ndiri mwenga hamubatizwi kwa Rohu Mnanagala.”
6 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked him, "Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?"
Su wantumintumi pawaliwoniti pamuhera na Yesu, womberi wamkosiyiti, “Mtuwa, shipindi ashi haguwuziyi ufalumi kwa Israeli?”
7 He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within his own authority.
Yesu kawagambira, “Vyamwenga ndiri kuvimana vipindi ama zitarehi Tati gwangu kavitula muukolamlima wakuwi.
8 But you will receive power when the Ruach ha-Kodesh has come upon you. You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the farthest part of the earth."
Kumbiti hamwanki likakala Rohu Mnanagala pakawayizireni mwenga, na hamuweri wapitawu waneni Muyerusalemu na Muyudeya yoseri na Samariya na ata upeleru wa pasipanu.”
9 When he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud took him out of their sight.
Pakatakuliti kala aga, pawaweriti wankulola yomberi kanyasulitwi kugenda kumpindi kwa Mlungu, liwundu limfifa nawamwona kayi.
10 While they were looking steadfastly into the sky as he went, look, two men stood by them in white clothing,
Pawaweriti wankali wankulola kumpindi yomberi kwakagenditi, palaa paliya wantu wawili yawavaliti nguwu nvufu wagolokiti pakwegela nawomberi,
11 who also said, "You men of Galil, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Yeshua, who was received up from you into the sky will come back in the same way as you saw him going into the sky."
na walonga, “Mwenga wantu wa Galilaya! Iwera hashi mgoloka panu pamlola kumpindi? Yesu ayu, yakanyasulitwi kulawa kwa mwenga kugenda kumpindi, hakizi kayi kwa njira iraa ayi ntambu yamumwoniti pakagenda kumpindi kwa Mlungu.”
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day's journey away.
Shakapanu wantumintumi wawuyiti Yerusalemu kulawa kulugongu lwa Mizeyituni, kuweriti kilumita yimu kulawa mlushi.
13 When they had come in, they went up into the upper room, where they were staying; that is Peter, John, Jacob, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, Jacob the son of Halfai, Shim'on the Zealot, and Judah the son of Jacob.
Pawasokiti mlushi, wayingiriti mshumba shawalikaliti, nawomberi waweriti Peteru na Yohani na Yakobu na Andereya na Filipu na Tomasi na Batolumayu na Matayu, Yakobu mwana gwa Alifayu na Simoni Zeloti na Yuda mwana gwa Yakobu.
14 All these with one accord continued steadfastly in prayer, along with the women, and Miriam the mother of Yeshua, and with his brothers.
Womberi woseri waliwoniti shipinga pamuhera kumluwa Mlungu, pamuhera na wadala na Mariya mawu gwa Yesu na walongu wakuwi Yesu.
15 In these days, Peter stood up in the midst of the brothers (and the number of names was about one hundred twenty), and said,
Mumashaka galii Peteru kagolokiti pakati pa wantu yawamjimira Kristu, weni walanga yawu waweriti miya yimu na malongu mawili, su yomberi kalongiti.
16 "Brothers, it was necessary that this Scripture should be fulfilled, which the Ruach ha-Kodesh spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judah, who was guide to those who took Yeshua.
“Mwawalongu wangu, Malembu Mananagala gatimiya, geni Rohu Mnanagala katungiti kupitira Dawudi kuusu Yuda yakawalongoziyiti walii yawamkamuliti Yesu.
17 For he was numbered with us, and received his portion in this ministry.
Yuda kaweriti yumu gwa shipinga shetu, toziya mweni kasyagulitwi kaweri mtenda lihengu muyetu.”
18 Now this man obtained a field with the reward for his wickedness, and falling headfirst his body burst open, and all his intestines gushed out.
Su Yuda kahemeliti lirambu kwa mpiya zilii za ukondola zyakazipatiti, pakaweriti kulirambu yomberi kaguwiti na kahowa, kapantika na utumbu wakuwi witika kunja.
19 It became known to everyone who lived in Jerusalem that in their language that field was called 'Hakel-Dema,' that is, 'The field of blood.'
Kila muntu yakalikaliti Muyerusalemu kapikaniriti visoweru vya vitwatira avi, na kwa likabira lyawu lirambu ali walishema Akelidama, mana yakuwi “Lirambu lya Mwazi.”
20 For it is written in the scroll of Psalms, 'Let his habitation be made desolate, and let no one dwell in it;' and, 'Let another take his office.'
Peteru kalongiti, “Ilembwa mushintora sha Zaburi, ‘Numba yakuwi isigali hera, muntu yoseri nakalikala amu.’ Kayi ilembwa, ‘Muntu yumonga katoli lihengu lyakuwi.’
21 "Of the men therefore who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Yeshua went in and out among us,
“Su ifiruwa tumsyaguli muntu yumonga pakati pa walii yawaweriti pamuhera na twenga shipindi shoseri mtuwa Yesu pakingiriti na kulawa pakati penu.
22 beginning from the immersion of John, to the day that he was received up from us, of these one must become a witness with us of his resurrection."
Kwanjira kwa shipindi sha ubatizu wa Yohani mpaka lishaka lilii Yesu pakanyasulitwi kulawa kwatwenga kugenda kumpindi. Ifiruwa yumu gwawu kaweri kapitawu gwa kuzyuka kwakuwi pamhera natwenga.”
23 They put forward two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
Su wakanda matawu ga wantu wawili, Yosefu yawamshema Barisaba viraa yomberi kamanikana kwa litawu lya Yustu, na Matiya.
24 They prayed, and said, "You, Lord, who know the hearts of all people, show which one of these two you have chosen
Shakapanu wamluwa Mlungu, “Mtuwa, gwenga guyimana myoyu ya wantu woseri. Su gutulanguziyi pakati pa wawili awa ulii yagumsyaguliti,
25 to take part in this ministry and office of emissary from which Judah turned away to go to his own place."
katoli lihengu lya utenderu wa untumintumi wa Yuda yakaulekiti su kagendi pahala pakuwi mweni.”
26 They drew lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven emissaries.
Shakapanu wagalambuziya simbi na kugalambuziya simbi aku kumtulukiriti Matiya, nayomberi kayongerwa mushipinga sha wantumintumi lilongu na yumu.
