Acts 2
1 And on the day of Pentecost they were all together in one place.
Ilipofika siku ya Pentekoste, wote walikuwa pamoja sehemu moja.
2 And suddenly there came out of heaven a sound, as of a rushing mighty wind; and it filled the whole house where they were sitting;
Ghafla ikatokea muungurumo kutoka mbinguni kama upepo mkali. ukaijaza nyumba yote walimokuwa wameketi.
3 and there appeared to them tongues as of fire, distributing themselves; and one sat upon each of them.
Hapo zikawatokea ndimi, kama ndimi za moto zimegawanyika, zikawa juu yao kila mmoja wao.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, even as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Wao wote wakajazwa na Roho Mtakatifu na wakaanza kusema kwa lugha zingine, kama vile Roho alivyowajalia kusema.
5 Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
Sasa walikuwapo wayahudi waliokuwa wanaishi Yerusalemu, wacha Mungu, kutoka kila taifa chini ya mbingu.
6 And when this sound took place, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because every one heard them speaking in his own language.
Ngurumo hizi ziliposikiwa, kundi la watu likaja pamoja na wakiwa na wasiwasi kwa sababu kila mtu aliwasikia wakiongea kwa lugha yake mwenyewe.
7 And they were amazed, and marveled, saying, Behold, are not all these who speak Galilaeans?
waliduwaa na kushangazwa, wao walisema, “Kweli, hawa wote wanaoongea siyo Wagalilaya?
8 and how is it that we every one hear them in our own language, wherein we were born?
Kwa nini sisi tunawasikia, kila mmoja katika lugha tulizozaliwa nazo?
9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those who inhabit Mesopotamia, Judaea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
Waparthia na Wamedi na Waelamu, na hao waishio Mesopotamia, Uyahudi, na Kapadokia, na katika Ponto na Asia,
10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and Romans who sojourn here, both Jews and Proselytes,
katika Frigia, Pamfilia, katika Misri, na sehemu ya Libya hata Kirene, na wageni kutoka Rumi,
11 Cretans and Arabians—how is it that we hear them speaking in our tongues the wonderful works of God?
Wayahudi na waongofu, Wakrete na Waarabu, tunawasikia wakizungumza katika lugha zetu kuhusu kazi za uweza wa Mungu.”
12 And they were all amazed and were in doubt, saying one to another, What can this mean?
Wote walikuwa wameduwaa na kutatanishwa; walisemezana wao kwa wao, “Hii ina maana gani?”
13 Others making sport of it, said, They are full of new wine.
Lakini wengine walidhihaki wakisema, “Hawa wamejazwa kwa mvinyo mpya.”
14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Men of Judea, and all that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and hearken to my words.
Lakini Petro akasimama pamoja na wale kumi na mmoja, akapaza sauti, akawaambia, “Watu wa Yudea na wote mnaoishi hapa Yerusalemu, hili lijulikane kwenu, sikilizeni kwa makini maneno yangu.
15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose; for it is the third hour of the day;
Watu hawa hawajalewa kama mnavyodhani, sababu saa hizi ni asubuhi saa tatu.
16 but this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel,
Lakini hili lilikuwa limesemwa kupitia kwa nabii Yoeli:
17 “It shall be in the last days, saith God, that I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams;
Itakuwa katika siku za mwisho; Mungu asema, nitamwaga Roho wangu kwa watu wote. Wana wenu na binti zenu watatoa unabii, vijana wenu wataona maono, na wazee wenu wataota ndoto.
18 and even on my servants, and on my handmaids, I will pour out of my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.
Vilevile juu ya watumishi wangu na watumishi wangu wa kike katika siku hizo, nitamwaga Roho wangu, nao watatabiri.
19 And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke;
Nitaonesha maajabu juu angani na ishara chini duniani, damu, moto, na mafusho ya moshi.
20 the sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the day of the Lord cometh, the great and notable day.
Na jua litabadilishwa kuwa giza na mwezi kuwa damu, kabla haijaja siku kuu na ya ajabu ya Bwana.
21 And it shall be that every one that calleth on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
itakuwa ya kwamba kila mmoja ambaye huliitia jina la Bwana ataokoka.'
22 Men of Israel, hear these words! Jesus the Nazarene, a man approved of God to you by miracles, and wonders, and signs, which God wrought by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves know, —
Watu wa Israeli, sikieni maneno haya: Yesu wa Nazareti, mwanadamu aliyethibitishwa na Mungu kwenu kwa matendo ya uweza na maajabu, na ishara ambazo Mungu kupitia Yeye katikati yenu, kama ninyi wenyewe mnavyojua-
23 this man, being delivered up by the settled purpose and foreknowledge of God, ye, by the hand of godless men, crucified and slew.
Kwa sababu ya mpango uliokusudiwa tangu mwanzo, na maarifa ya Mungu, alitolewa, na ninyi, kwa mikono ya watu wahalifu, mlimsulibisha na kumuua,
24 But God raised him up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it.
ambaye Mungu alimwinua, akauondoa uchungu wa mauti kwake, kwasababu haikuwezekana kwake kumilikiwa na huo.
25 For David saith concerning him, “I saw the Lord always before me; because he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
Hivyo Daudi anasema kuhusu yeye, 'Nilimwona Bwana daima mbele ya uso wangu, yeye yuko mkono wangu wa kulia hivyo basi sitasogezwa.
26 Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue exulted; moreover also, my flesh shall dwell in hope;
Kwa hiyo moyo wangu ulikuwa na furaha na ulimi wangu ulifurahishwa. Pia mwili wangu utaishi katika ujasiri.
27 because thou wilt not abandon my soul to the underworld, nor wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
Hutaiacha nafsi yangu iende kuzimu, wala hutaruhusu Mtakatifu wako kuona uozo. (Hadēs g86)
28 Thou didst make known to me the ways of life; thou wilt make me full of joy with thy countenance.”
Wewe umedhihirisha kwangu njia za uzima; utanifanya nijae furaha mbele ya uso wako.'
29 Brethren, I may speak to you with freedom of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is among us to this day.
Ndugu, ninaweza kuzungumza kwenu kwa ujasiri kuhusu baba yetu Daudi: yeye alikufa na akazikwa, na kaburi lake liko pamoja nasi hata hivi leo.
30 Being then a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath that he would set one sprung from his loins upon his throne,
Hivyo, alikuwa nabii na alijua kuwa Mungu alishaapa kwa kiapo kwake, kwamba ataweka mmoja katika uzao wake kwenye kiti cha enzi.
31 he foresaw and spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that neither was he abandoned to the underworld, nor did his flesh see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
Aliliona hili mapema, na akasema kuhusu ufufuo wa Kristo, 'wala alikuwa hakuachwa kuzimu, wala mwili wake haukuoza.' (Hadēs g86)
32 This Jesus God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
Huyu Yesu - Mungu alimfufua, ambaye sisi wote ni mashahidi.
33 Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, he hath poured forth this, which ye both see and hear.
Kwa hiyo, akiwa ameinuliwa katika mkono wa kuume wa Mungu, na akiwa amepokea ahadi ya Roho Mtakatifu kutoka kwa Baba, yeye amemimina hii ahadi, ambaye ninyi mnaona na kusikia.
34 For David did not ascend into the heavens; but he himself saith, The Lord said to my lord, “Sit thou on my right hand,
Kwani Daudi hakupaa kwenda mbinguni, lakini anasema, 'BWANA alisema kwa Bwana wangu,
35 until I make thine enemies thy footstool.”
“keti mkono wangu wa kulia, mpaka nitakapowafanya adui zako kigoda kwa ajili ya miguu yako.
36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified.
Kwa hiyo nyumba yote ya Israeli na ijue kwa hakika kwamba Mungu amemfanya Yeye kuwa Bwana na Kristo, huyu Yesu ambaye mlimsulibisha.”
37 And when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what must we do?
Sasa waliposikia hivyo, wakachomwa katika mioyo yao, wakamwambia Petro na mitume wengine, “Ndugu, tufanyeje?”
38 But Peter said to them, Repent, and let every one of you be baptized to the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Na Petro akawaambia, “Tubuni na Mbatizwe, kila mmoja wenu, katika jina la Yesu Kristo kwa ajili ya msamaha wa dhambi zenu, na mtapokea zawadi ya Roho Mtakatifu.
39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call.
Kwani kwenu ni ahadi na kwa watoto wenu na kwa wale wote walioko mbali, watu wengi kwa kadri Bwana Mungu wetu atakavyowaita.”
40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.
Kwa maneno mengi alishuhudia na kuwasihi; alisema, “Jiokoeni mtoke katika kizazi hiki kiovu.”
41 They therefore received his word, and were baptized; and there were added on that day about three thousand souls.
Ndipo wakayapokea maneno yake na wakabatizwa, hapo wakaongezeka katika siku hiyo kama nafsi elfu tatu.
42 And they were constantly attending on the teaching of the apostles, and the imparting [[of their substance]], the breaking of bread, and the prayers.
Wakaendelea katika mafundisho ya mitume na ushirikiano, katika kuumega mkate na katika maombi.
43 And fear came upon every soul; and many wonders and signs were wrought through the apostles.
Hofu ikaja juu ya kila nafsi, na maajabu mengi na ishara zikafanyika kupitia mitume.
44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
Wote walioamini walikuwa pamoja na kuwa na vitu vyao kwa pamoja,
45 and they sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as any one had need.
na waliuza vitu na milki zao na kugawanya kwa wote kulingana na hitaji la kila mmoja.
46 And attending daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread in a private house, they partook of their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
Hivyo siku baada ya siku waliendelea wakiwa na lengo moja katika hekalu, na walimega mkate kwenye kaya, na walishiriki chakula kwa furaha na unyenyekevu wa moyo;
47 praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were in the way of salvation.
walimsifu Mungu na wakiwa na kibali na watu wote. Bwana aliwaongeza siku kwa siku ambao walikuwa wakiokolewa.
