< Acts 13 >

1 Now in the church that was at Antioch there were some prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
Leno mutembuile ya khu Antiokia, palena vasuhwa na vamanyisi. Vale uBarnaba, Simeoni(uviaei languvaga Nigeri). U Lukio uva khu Kirene, Manaeni( ulikoloeun'chila kisa gwa Helode undogonchi va koa), nu Savuli.
2 As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, "Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them."
Vuvalipakhukonga udaada nukhudinda, Umepo Umbalan'che akhan'chova, “Mumbeikhile palukhanji uBarnaba nu Savuli, vavombe ei mbombo eiyunivilangile.”
3 Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
Vu ei Tembile yeidendile nukhudova, nukhuvikha amavokho pakianya pa vanu ava, vakhavalekha valutage.
4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia. From there they sailed to Cyprus.
Pu uBarnaba nu Savuli vakha mweidikha Umepo Umbalan'che vakhikha ukhuluta khu Seleukia; ukhuhums ukhu vagendile munyanje ukhuta khu kisiva kya Kipro.
5 When they were at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the Jewish synagogues. They had also John as their attendant.
Vuvalimkhilunga kya Salam, valiei khun'chova eilimenyu lya Nguluve mu Masinagogi ga Vayahudi. Vale pupaninei nu Yohani nu Marko nduu ntangili vavene.
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-Jesus,
Vuvalutile mukhisi va kyoni eikya Kipro vakhambona umunu ung'avi, Unjahudi undagunchi va vudesi, uvei eilitawa lya mwene ale vei Bar Yesu.
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.
Ung'avi uyu vale paninie nu Liwali Sergio Paulus, ale munu einyaluhala. Umunu uyu avakaribisye uBarnaba nu Savuli, pakhuva anogwa ga ukhupulikha eilimenyu lya Nguluve.
8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn aside the proconsul from the faith.
Pu uElima “ung'avi vulele ulo eilitawa” (ya mwene alukhuvabencha) agelile nukhupendula uliwali ahege mu ndweidikho.
9 But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him,
Pu uSavuli uviaeilangiwaga Paulo, adin'chiwe Umepo Umbalan'che akhakaseihein'cha amiho
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?
na akhambula “Uve mwana va setano, uden'chine khila khinu kya vudesi. Nuvupepe uve uliaduvi va lweli. Savukhelekhelwa ukhupedula einjila n'cha n'cha Daada, einchi golwikhe vuwesya?
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.
Lino lola eikhivokho kya Daada khelipakianya paliuve, vubosokha amiho. Savukhulevona eilin'chova khuusikhei” mala khamo uluhwela nei hisi fikhagwa pakianya pa Elimas; akhatengula ukhun'chungula nukhudova avanu vandogon'che nukhumwibatelila eikhivokho.
12 Then the proconsul, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.
Pu umbaha vualolile eikhei humile, akheidikha, pakhuva aswigile amafundisyo ukhuhusu Udaada.
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.
Pu uPavuli navaninee vakhagenda munjila ukhuhuma khu Pafo vakhafikha khu Perge khuu Pamfilia. U Yohani avalekhile nukhuvuya khu Yelusalemu.
14 But they, passing on from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia. They went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat down.
U Pavuli nulukololwe vagendile ukhuhuma khu Perge vakhafikha khu Antiokia ya Pisidia. Ukhu vakhaluta mumasinagogi eisikhu ya Sabati nukhutama 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."
Vu veimbile ululagilo lya vanyamalago, na valongon'chi va masinagogi avasuhile ei ndumi ukhuta, “Valukolo ei ngave muleneindumi vakhuvapa amakha apa avanu n'chova”
16 Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, "Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen.
Pu uPavuli akheima nukhuvapungeila amavokho; akhanchova, “Mweivagosi vakhu Esilaeli numwe umwei mukhukonga Unguluve mumuleihen'che.
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.
Unguluve va vanu ava ava Isilaeli avahalile avadada yenyo ukhuvavikha vanu vingi vuvatamile khu Misili, nakhu khivokho kya mwene akhinuliwa nukhuvahumya khunji.
18 For a period of about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.
Khu miakha alubaini akhavafumeilila mulukunguu.
19 When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance.
Vu anangile ifivumbukho saba ifyakhuu Kaanani akhavapa avanu vetoeikhelunga khivuhale.
20 All this took about four hundred and fifty years. And after these things he gave them judges, until Samuel the prophet.
Imbombo n'chiin'chooni n'cha humile emikha mia ine na hamsini. Pafinu ifi fyooni Unguluve akhavapa undamchi mpakha uSamweli Unyamalago.
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.
Vuvavombile aga avanu vakhadova ukhuludeva, pu Unguluve akhavapa uSavuli umwana va Kishi, umunu va kheivumbukho kya Benjamini, ukhuva iikhuludeva eimiakha alubaini.
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.'
Vu Unguluve ang'een'chinche (mumbukhuludede) akhamwemikha uDavudi ukhuva iikhuludeva vavene. Vale ukhung'usu uDavudi ukhuta Unguluve an'chovile, 'Neipile uDavudi umwana va Yese ukhuva munu uveianogelanile nei numbula yango; ukhuta ivomba kheila kheinu eikheininogwa.'
23 From this man's offspring, according to his promise, God has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus,
Ukhuhuma mukheikolo kya munu uyu Unguluve agegile ei Isilaeli umbopoli, uYesu, nduvu aeilapile ukhuvomba.
24 before his coming, when John had first preached the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
Eile lyaandile ukhuhumila va badu uYesu sin'chile, uYohani akhatengula ukhunchova ulwon'cho lwa vusikhelo khuvanu voni avanya Isilaeli.
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.'
Nu Yohani vualipa khumala ei mbombo ya mwene akhan'chova mukhusagila unene ukhuta nene veni? une syoo ula. Ila pulehen'cha, uvei ikhwin'cha khusana khuliune, sanei nogile ukhulegesya ifilato vya malunde ga mwene.'
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.
Valukolo mwei vanavakheikolo kya Abrahamu, navala aviiliei pagati paliumwe avikhumwudikha Unguluve, khuujili yeto ukhuta eikhulongwi yavovopalwa yeisuhiwe.
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.
Khuvala avitama khu Yelusalemu, na vavaha vavene, savamanye uvufumbule wa vanyamalago uvuvu khweimbiwa mu Sabato; pu vakhamalisya ufumbwe wa vanjamalago pakhung'eiga uvufye uYesu.
28 Though they found no cause for death, they still asked Pilate to have him killed.
Ndangave savapate uwayei lweli vunonu uwakhung'eiga uvufye mugati mumwene, vakhadova uPilato alamule.
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.
Vuvaamalile imbombo n'choni inchisimbiwe ukhuhusu umwene, vakhamwisya muubeikhi nukhugonwa mulipumba.
30 But God raised him from the dead,
Pu Unguluve akhan'chusya ukhuhuma khuvafyile.
31 and he was seen for many days by those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.
Avanekhe isikhu n'chuu nyingi khuvala avavalutaga paninie nave ukhuhuma khu Galilaya ukhuluta khu Yeusalemu. Avanu ava lino vakheti va vanu.
32 We bring you good news of the promise made to the fathers,
Leno tukhuvagegela eikhulongi einonu va lulagilo uluvava pue avadada yeto.
33 that God has fulfilled for us, their children, in that he raised up Jesus. As it is also written in the second psalm, 'You are my Son. Today I have become your Father.'
Unguluve avikheile indagilo in'chii mundiufye, avana vavene, pa ei ele an'chusin'che uYesu nukhukilivula khaveilei khu wumi eileilee lyandikhiwe mu Sabuli va veile: 'Veve mwana vango eilelo neivile daadayo'
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.'
Uvuayilweli uvuan'chusin'che ukhuhuma khuvufye umbile gwa mwene gusite ukhunang'eikha, an'chovile ndee: 'Nikhukhupa uvuvalan'che nulusayo lwa lweli ulwa Davudi'
35 Therefore he says also in another psalm, 'You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.'
Eiyei yuan'chovile khavile muu sabuli eiyeinge, 'Sanikhweidekha umbalan'che vango ukhuvola.'
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.
Pakhuva vu uDavudi vuatimisye indagilo ncha Nguluve mukhei vumbukho kya mwene akhagonelela, vakhagonwa pupaninie navababa va mwene avuwene uvuvivi(uvunangikhe),
37 But he whom God raised up saw no decay.
Pakhuva uvian'chusiwe nu Nguluve sikhuvuvona uvuvivi(uvunangikhe).
38 Be it known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you forgiveness of sins,
Pu yeimanyikhe khuliumwe, valukolo, ukhugendela umunu uyu, uvusyeikhilo wa mbivi vulumbiileliwe.
39 and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the Law of Moses.
Pakhuva khila munu uviikhwedikha ivaleliwa uwayelweli yoni iyei indagilo n'cha Mose sanchikhale n'chi khuvaeilweli.
40 So beware, lest what is said in the Prophets should come about:
Puyiinogiwa muve miho ukhuta khila khei eikhiva nchovile avanyamalago kheisite ukhuhuma khuliumwe:
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.'"
“Pu mulole, umwe yumwe mwibela mukhaswiige nukhwangamila; pakhuva nivomba eimbombo pasikhun'chenyo, imbombo in'chii samuwesya ukhwiidekha ndavavule umunu.”
42 So when they went out they urged them to speak about these things on the next Sabbath.
Vu uPavuli nu Barnaba vahegile avanu vakhavadova van'chove amamenyu aga pasikhu ya Sabato eiyeikhwincha.
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.
Vuusikhei gwa n'kutano gwa siinagogi gusilile, Avayahudi vingi avagolofu fin'cho vakhavakonga uPauli nu Barnaba, avavan'chovila navo ukhuta vagendelelage nukheisa kya Nguluve.
44 The next Sabbath almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of the Lord.
Eisabato eiyekongile, umuji ugunge gwa hegelile khupulihin'cha eilimenyu lya Nguluve.
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.
Avayahudi vuvalolile ukhutano, vakhava nu wifu nukhun'chova amamenyu aga khuben'cha ifinu ifincho viwe nu Pavuli nukhudukha.
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)
Pu uPauli nu Barnaba vakhan'chova nuvukifu nukuta, “Yeikhanogile eilimenyu lya Nguluve lin'choviwe khuliumwe. Pakhuva mukhwei kulugila kuvutali ukhuhuma khuliumwe. Nuukhweivona ukhuta samudogile ukhuhava uludeva lya sikhu n'choni mulolage tukhava peindukhila Avanyapanji. (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.'"
Nduvu uDaada atuvulile, akhata(akhanchova), 'Nivavikhile umwe nduu lumali khuvanu na khuvanu avanyapanji, ukhuta mugege uvupokhiei eingutu n'chooni nchweine n'cha kheilunga.”
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)
Avanyapanji vuvapulikhen'chi vakhahovokha nukhuleng'inwa eilimenyu lya Nguluve. Vingi avahaliwe khuu wumi wa sikhu n'chooni vaaeidikhe. (aiōnios g166)
49 The Lord's word was spread abroad throughout all the region.
Eelimenyu lya Nguluve likhenela eikhilunga kyooni.
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.
Pu avayahudi vakhavadova avei humin'che avadala navalongon'chi va miji. Aga ganchoon'chi eitabu khwa Pauli nu Barnaba vakhavataga khunjii khuu mipakha gwa miji.
51 But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.
Pu uPavuli nu Barnaba vakhang'una eifumbe ya malunde gavene. Puvakhaluta khuu miji eigwa Ikonia.
52 The disciples were filled with joy with the Holy Spirit.
Navakongi vakhadeiga nuluhekhilo paninie nu Mepo Umbalan'che.
