< Acts 14 >

1 It happened in Iconium that they entered together into the Jewish synagogue, and so spoke that a great number of both of Jews and of Greeks believed.
PaIkoniamu Pauro naBhanabhasi vakasvikopinda musinagoge ravaJudha sezvavaisiita nguva dzose. Imomo vakataura zvinobata mwoyo kwazvo zvokuti vaJudha vazhinji neveDzimwe Ndudzi vakatenda.
2 But the disbelieving Jews stirred up and embittered the souls of the non-Jewish people against the brothers.
Asi vaJudha vakaramba kutenda vakamutsa mwoyo yeveDzimwe Ndudzi uye vakavakanganisa pfungwa dzavo kuti vavenge hama.
3 Therefore they stayed there a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who testified to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Saka Pauro naBhanabhasi vakapedza nguva refu varipo, vachitaura zvaIshe vasingatyi, iye akasimbisa shoko renyasha dzake nokuvagonesa kuita zviratidzo nezvishamiso.
4 But the population of the city was divided. Some sided with the Jews, and some with the apostles.
Vanhu vomuguta vakapesana; vamwe vakatsigira vaJudha, vamwewo vakatsigira vapostori.
5 When some of both the non-Jewish people and the Jews, with their rulers, made a violent attempt to mistreat and stone them,
VeDzimwe Ndudzi navaJudha, pamwe chete navatungamiri vavo vakarangana kuvaitira zvakaipa nokuvataka namabwe.
6 they became aware of it, and fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra, Derbe, and the surrounding region.
Asi vakazviziva vakabva vatizira kuRistira neDhebhe maguta avaRikonia nokudunhu rose rakanga rakapoteredza,
7 There they preached the Good News.
uko kwavakaramba vachiparidza vhangeri.
8 At Lystra a certain man sat, without strength in his feet, a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked.
MuRistira maigara mumwe murume akanga ari mhetamakumbo, akanga ari chirema kubva pakuberekwa kwake uye akanga asina kumbofamba.
9 He was listening to Paul speaking, who, fastening eyes on him, and seeing that he had faith to be made whole,
Akateerera Pauro paakanga achitaura. Pauro akamutarisisa, akaona kuti akanga ano kutenda kuti angaporeswa
10 said with a loud voice, "Stand upright on your feet." He leaped up and walked.
akadanidzira akati, “Simuka netsoka dzako!” Ipapo, murume akakwakuka akatanga kufamba.
11 When the crowd saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice, saying in the language of Lycaonia, "The gods have come down to us in human form."
Vazhinji vakati vaona zvakanga zvaitwa naPauro, vakadanidzira norurimi rwechiRikonia vachiti, “Vamwari vaburuka kwatiri muchimiro chavanhu!”
12 They called Barnabas "Jupiter," and Paul "Mercury," because he was the chief speaker.
Bhanabhasi vakamutumidza kuti Zeusi, uye Pauro vakamutumidza kuti Herimesi nokuti ndiye aiva mutauri mukuru.
13 The priest of Jupiter, whose temple was in front of their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and would have made a sacrifice along with the crowds.
Muprista waZeusi aiva netemberi yake yakanga iri kunze kweguta, akauya nehando namaruva kumasuo eguta nokuti iye navanhu vazhinji vaida kupa zvibayiro kwavari.
14 But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of it, they tore their clothes, and sprang into the crowd, crying out,
Asi vapostori Bhanabhasi naPauro vakati vazvinzwa, vakabvarura nguo dzavo vakamhanyira mukati moruzhinji, vakadanidzira vachiti,
15 "Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to the living God, who made the sky and the earth and the sea, and all that is in them;
“Varume, munoitireiko izvi? Isuwo tiri vanhu semi, vanhuwo zvavo semi. Tinokuparidzirai mashoko akanaka, tichikuudzai kuti mubve pazvinhu izvi zvisina maturo mudzokere kuna Mwari mupenyu, akaita denga nenyika negungwa nezvinhu zvose zviri mukati mazvo.
16 who in the generations gone by allowed all the nations to walk in their own ways.
Panguva dzakapfuura, akarega hake ndudzi dzose dzichifamba nenzira dzadzo.
17 Yet he did not leave himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you rains from the sky and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness."
Asi haana kusiya pasina zvingamupupurira: Akakuitirai tsitsi nokukupai mvura inobva kudenga nezvirimwa nenguva yazvo; akakupai zvokudya zvakawanda uye akazadza mwoyo yenyu nomufaro.”
18 Even saying these things, they hardly stopped the crowds from making a sacrifice to them.
Kunyange namashoko iwaya, zvakanga zvakaoma chose kuti vadzivise vanhu vazhinji ava kuti varege kuvabayira.
19 But some Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there, and having persuaded the crowds, they stoned Paul, and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.
Ipapo vamwe vaJudha vaibva kuAndioki nokuIkoniamu vakauya vakasvikopindura mwoyo yavanhu vazhinji ava. Vakataka Pauro namabwe ndokumuzvuzvurudzira kunze kweguta, vachifunga kuti afa.
20 But as the disciples stood around him, he rose up, and entered into the city. On the next day he went out with Barnabas to Derbe.
Asi shure kwokunge vadzidzi vaungana vakamukomba, akamuka akadzokera muguta zvakare. Zuva rakatevera akaenda naBhanabhasi kuDhebhe.
21 When they had preached the Good News to that city, and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch,
Vakaparidza mashoko akanaka muguta iroro vakawana vadzidzi vazhinji kwazvo. Ipapo vakadzokera kuRistira, Ikoniamu nokuAndioki,
22 confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many afflictions we must enter into the Kingdom of God.
vachisimbisa vadzidzi nokuvakurudzira kuti varambe vari pakutenda. Vakati, “Tinofanira kutambudzika kuti tipinde muumambo hwaMwari.”
23 When they had appointed elders for them in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they had believed.
Pauro naBhanabhasi vakagadza vatungamiri mukereke imwe neimwe uye nokunyengetera nokutsanya, vakavakumikidza kuna She, uyo wavaivimba naye.
24 They passed through Pisidia, and came to Pamphylia.
Shure kwokupinda kwavo nomuPisidhia, vakasvika muPamufiria,
25 When they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.
uye vakati vaparidza shoko muPega, vakadzika vakaenda kuAtaria.
26 From there they sailed to Antioch, from where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.
Kubva paAtaria vakakwira chikepe vakadzokera kuAndioki, kuya kwavakanga vakumikidzwa kunyasha dzaMwari pabasa ravakanga vapedza zvino.
27 When they had arrived, and had gathered the church together, they reported all the things that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the nations.
Vakati vasvika ikoko, vakaunganidza kereke pamwe chete vakavarondedzera zvose zvakanga zvaitwa naMwari kubudikidza navo uye kuti akanga avazarurira sei mukova wokutenda kune veDzimwe Ndudzi.
28 And they stayed with the disciples a long time.
Uye vakagara navadzidzi ipapo kwenguva refu.
