Acts 21
1 And it came to pass, after we had torn ourselves from them, and had put to sea, that we came with a straight course to Cos, and the day following to Rhodes, and from thence to Patara.
Tukaalajilanjeje, gutukwelile meli gutupite mpaka ku Koshi. Malabhi gakwe gutuishe ku Lode na gwajabhula penepo gutupite ku Patala.
2 And finding a ship crossing over to Phenicia, we went aboard, and put to sea.
Kweneko gutujiimene meli jajendaga ku Poinike, gutukwelile, gutujabhwile.
3 And having come in sight of Cyprus, we passed it on the left, and sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unlade her cargo.
Tukaishileje pa kushibhona shilambo sha Kupulo, gutupitile kunkono nshinda gutuloshiye ku Shilia. Gutujimi kushilambo sha Tilo penepo mishigo ja mmeli mula jatendaga pinjikwa jituluywe.
4 And having found out the disciples, we remained there seven days; and they told Paul, through the Spirit, not to go up to Jerusalem.
Gutwaimenenje bhaajiganywa bha a Yeshu kweneko, gututemi nabhonji kwa juma jimo. Bhalibheleketanga kwa mashili gaka Mbumu, gubhaalimbiyenje a Pauli bhanajende ku Yelushalemu.
5 And when we had completed the days, we departed, and went our way, they all accompanying us, with wives and children, till we were out of the city; and having kneeled down on the shore and prayed,
Ikabheje mobha getu gakamalileje gutujabhwile. Na bhandunji bhowe na ashakongo bhabhonji na ashibhana bhabhonji gubhatupelesheyenje mpaka palanga shilambo. Tukaisheje nnyenje bhaali, tubhowe gututindibhele kujuga Nnungu.
6 we took leave of each other, and went on board the ship; and they returned home.
Kungai gutulegene nabhonji, uwe gutukwelile meli, nabhalabhonji gubhabhujilenje kunngwabhonji.
7 But we, finishing our voyage, came down from Tyre to Ptolemais; and having embraced the brethren, remained with them one day.
Gutupite na mwanja gwetu gwajabhula ku Tilo gutuishe ku Tolemaishi, kweneko gutwaalamushilenje ashaapwetu, gututemi nabhonji lyubha limo.
8 And on the morrow we departed, and came to Caesarea; and entering the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, we stayed with him.
Malabhi gakwe gutujabhwile gutuishe ku Kaishalia. Kweneko gutupite kunngwabho a Pilipi Bhaalunguya Ngani ja Mmbone. Bhenebho ni munkumbi gwa nng'ano na bhabhili bhaagwilwenje ku Yelushalemu kula.
9 And this man had four daughters, virgins, who prophesied.
Bhashinkukola bhali nsheshe bhakanabhe lombwanga bhatendaga londolanga.
10 And while we were staying some days longer, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus;
Tukatameje kweneko mobha gowepe, gwaishe nkulondola jumo kukopoka ku Yudea lina lyakwe Agabhushi.
11 and coming to us, he took off Paul's girdle, and bound his own feet and hands, and said, Thus saith the Holy Spirit: So will the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and will deliver him into the hands of the gentiles.
Akatuishileje gwatolile nshipi gwa a Pauli, gwaitabhile makono na makongono, gwashite, “Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo akuti, ‘Nnyene gwene nshipi guno apinga tabhwa shana nneino na Bhayaudi ku Yelushalemu na bhapinga kunkamuyanga ku bhandunji bha ilambo ina.’”
12 But when we heard this, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go to Jerusalem.
Bhai, tukapilikaneje genego uwe na bhandunji bhananji bha pepala gutwaashondelesheye a Pauli bhanajende ku Yelushalemu.
13 Then answered Paul, What mean ye that ye weep, and break my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
Ikabheje a Pauli gubhajangwile, “Nkupinga tendanga nndi? Nnagutanga mmulaganje ntima? Nne ng'engwilwe nngabha ga tabhwape ku Yelushalemu, ikabheje nkali kubhulagwa kwa ligongo lya a Yeshu.”
14 And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased; saying, The Lord's will be done.
Tukalepeleje kwaashondelesheya, bhai gutushite, “Libhapinga Bhakulungwa litendeshe!”
15 And after those days we got ready our baggage, and went up to Jerusalem.
Gakapiteje gene mobha gala, gututabhile mishigo jetu, gutujabhwile kwenda ku Yelushalemu.
16 There went with us also some of the disciples of Caesarea, bringing us to one Mnason, a Cyprian, an old disciple, with whom we should lodge.
Bhaajiganywa bhananji kopoka ku Kaishalia gubhalongenenje na uwe, gubhatupelekenje ku nyumba ja a Mnashoni kutwajendaga ishila. A Mnashoni pubhaliji bhashilambo bha ku Kipulo na pubhaliji bhaajiganywa tandubhila bhukala.
17 And when we arrived at Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.
Tukaisheje ku Yelushalemu, bhakilishitu ajetunji gubhatuposhelenje kwa kwinonyela.
18 And the day following Paul went in with us to James; and all the elders were present.
Malabhi gakwe a Pauli gubhapite na uwe na bhakulungwanji bhowe bha liekalu bhapalinji kukwaabhona a Yakobho.
19 And having embraced them, he recounted particularly what things God had wrought among the gentiles through his ministry.
Bhakaalamushilanjeje, a Pauli gubhaatalashiyenje yowe ibhatendile a Nnungu kubhandunji bha ilambo ina nniengo lyabho.
20 And they on hearing it glorified God; and said to him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of believers there are among the Jews, and they are all zealots for the Law.
Bhakapilikananjeje genego gubhaakushiyenje a Nnungu. Kungai gubhaalugulilenje a Pauli, “Apwetu, nnilola kuti maelupu ga Bhayaudi nnaino bhashibhanganga bhakilishitu na bhowenji bhashitumbililanga kukamulila shalia ja a Musha.
21 But they have been informed concerning thee, that thou teachest all the Jews who are among the gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children, nor to walk after the customs.
Bhabhalanjilwenje ngani jenu kuti nnakwajiganyanga Bhayaudi bhatamanga mwilambo ina kuti bhanakagulanje Malajilo ga a Musha wala bhanaataganje unyago ashibhana bhabhonji na bhanakaguyanje ikubho ya Shiyaudi.
22 What then is to be done? The multitude will necessarily come together; for they will hear that thou hast come.
Igala, pushiibhe bhuli? Pabha shibhapilikananje kuti nng'ishe.”
23 Do this therefore that we advise thee. We have four men who have a vow on them.
“Bhai, ntende malinga gutupinga kummalanjila gano. Bhashipagwanga apano bhanabhalume nsheshe bhashitabhanga nalili.
24 These take, and purify thyself with them, and pay the expenses for them, that they may shave their heads; and all will know that those things of which they have been informed concerning thee are nothing, but that thou thyself also walkest in observance of the Law.
Mwiilunde na bhene bhanganyabho, nkaikonjeleye nabhonji kwa a Nnungu. Nkaalipilanje, nkupinga bhamogwanje umbo yabhonji. Penepo bhandunji bhowe shibhamumanyanje kuti ngani jenu jibhapilikenenjejo nngabha ja kweli, ikabheje mmwe mmayene nnitama ukoto na nnikaguya Shalia ja a Musha.
25 But concerning the gentile believers, we have written to them and decided that they should observe no such thing, save only to abstain from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from what hath been strangled, and from fornication.
Ikabheje kwa ngani ja bhandunji bha ilambo ina bhalinginji bhakilishitu, twaajandishilanje bhaluwa kwatalashiyanga shitushite lajila, bhanalyanganje yalya ya mbepei ya ashinnungu bha yanamu na bhanataunanje nnyama yangainga na bhaiepuyanje na labhalabha.”
26 Then Paul took the men, and the next day having purified himself with them, entered the temple, announcing the completion of the days of the purification, until the offering was made for every one of them.
Bhai, pa malabhi gakwe a Pauli gubhaatolilenje bhandunji bhatabhilenje nalili bhala gubhajujile nabhonji Nnungu nkwiikonjeleya. Kungai nigubhajinjile nliekalu, kuulugula ga mpelo gwa mobha ga kwiikonjeleya kwa a Nnungu na ga mbepei ipinga shoywa kwa kila mundu.
27 And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews from Asia, having seen him in the temple, stirred up the whole multitude, and laid hands on him,
Bhai, gene mobha nng'ano na gabhili gala gali tome na malila, Bhayaudi bhakopokengene ku Ashia gubhaabhweninji a Pauli nniekalu. Bhai, gubhakwiyenje nnjimwa likundi lyowe lya bhandunji, nigubhaakamwilenje.
28 crying out, Men of Israel, help! This is the man that teacheth every one everywhere against the people, and the Law, and this place; and besides he even brought Greeks into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place.
Gubhajobhelenje, bhalinkutinji, “Mmashileunji bha pa Ishilaeli, ntujangutanje! Jweneju ni mundu ajiganya bhandunji mmbali yowe indu ikapinjikwa na bhandunji bha shilambo sha Ishilaeli, ya kana Shalia ja a Musha na pa ukonjelo pano. Na kabhili anakwaajinjiyanga Bhagiliki nniekalu nikupanyatiya pa ukonjelo pano.”
29 For they had before seen with him in the city Trophimus, the Ephesian, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.
Bhashinkubheleketanga nneyo, ligongo lya kummona Tolopimo mundu jwa ku Epesho alongene na a Pauli kunnjini, gubhaganishiyenje kuti a Pauli bhashikunnjinjiya nniekalu.
30 And the whole city was in motion, and the people ran together; and they laid hold of Paul and dragged him out of the temple; and forthwith the doors were shut.
Shilambo showe gushijinjile nnjasha, gubhaikengenenje bhandunji kukopoka mmbali yowe, gubhaakamwilenje a Pauli, gubhaakwekwetenje kwakopoya nniekalu, shangupe milango ja liekalu jikuugalwaga.
31 And while they were endeavoring to kill him, tidings came up to the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar;
Bhalinginji nkuloleya mwa kwabhulajila, bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo bha Loma, gubhapatile ntenga kuti ku Yelushalemu kowe kushinyata.
32 who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down to them. And seeing the chief captain and the soldiers, they left off beating Paul.
Shangupe gubhaatolilenje ashimanjola na bhakulungwanji bha manjola, gubhapite lubhilo kulugwinjili lwa bhandunji kula. Na bhalabhonji bhakaabhonanjeje bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo na ashimanjola bhala, gubhapumwilenje kwaakoma a Pauli.
33 Then the chief captain came near and laid hold of him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and inquired who he was, and what he had done.
Bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo bhala gubhapite kwaakamula a Pauli, gubhaamulishe bhatabhwe mindondolo jibhili. Gubhabhushiye, “Jweneju gani na atendile nndi?”
34 And some cried one thing, and some another, among the multitude. And not being able to gain certain knowledge on account of the uproar, he ordered him to be carried into the castle.
Nnugwinjili mula bhandunji bhatendaga jobhelanga bhananji bhalinkutinji nnei na bhananji sha munape. Kwa ligongo lya yene njobhelayo, bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo bhala bhangagamanya malombolelo ga jene ngani jila. Kwa nneyo gubhaamulishenje bhandu bhabho bhaapelekanje a Pauli nnugwani.
35 And when he reached the stairs, he was obliged to be borne by the soldiers, on account of the violence of the crowd;
A Pauli bhakaishejepe pa ngashi, penepo guipinjikwe ashimanjola bhaajigalanje a Pauli kwa ligongo lya nnjasha ya bhandunji.
36 for the multitude of the people were following, crying out, Away with him!
Pabha lugwinjili lwa bhandu lwatendaga kwaakagula bhalijobhelenga, bhalinkutinji, “Mwaabhulaje!”
37 And as he was about to be led into the castle, Paul saith to the chief captain, May I speak to thee? And he said, Canst thou speak Greek?
Na bhalabho a Pauli bhalijinjiywa nnugwani, gubhaajujile bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo bhala bhalinkuti, “Ngunajuga nimmalanjile shindu.” Bhakulungwa bhala gubhashite, “Bhuli ulikombola Shigiliki?
38 Art thou not then the Egyptian, who before these days made an insurrection, and led out into the wilderness those four thousand men of the assassins?
Ugwe nngabha Mmishili agano mobha pegano apitinishe bhandu elupu nsheshe bhaashemwanga mabhulaga bhandu, alikwaalongoyanga kuanga?”
39 But Paul said, I am a Jew of Tarsus, a citizen of no mean city of Cilicia; and I beseech thee, suffer me to speak to the people.
A Pauli gubhajangwile, “Nne Nannyaudi, kumelekwe ku Tasho nshilambo sha Kilikia, nne mundu jwa shilambo nngabha sha nyegala. Shonde nneshe melekete na bhashilambobha.”
40 And when he had given him leave, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with his hand to the people, and there was a great silence; and he spoke to them in the Hebrew tongue, saying,
Bhakulungwa bhala gubhakundile. Kwa nneyo a Pauli gubhajimi pangashi, gubhaajinulilenje nkono bhandunji bhapumulanje, bhakapumulanjeje, a Pauli gubhatandwibhe kubheleketa nabhonji kwa Shiebhulania.
