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.
Patumaliliti kumgambira kwaheri, tukweniti meli tugenda mpaka kosi. Shirawu yakuwi tusokiti Rodi, na kulawa aku tugenditi patara.
2 And finding a ship crossing over to Phenicia, we went aboard, and put to sea.
Aku, tuwoniti meli yaiweriti yankugenda Foiniki, hangu tukweniti, tugenda mwanja.
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.
Patusokiti kala pahala peni tuweziti kuwona kupiru, tupitiriti uwega wakuwi wa kushana tugenda Siriya. Tupumliriti mulushi lwa Tiru peni meli ilii iweriti wankusulusiya visanka vyakuwi.
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.
Tuwoniti waumini wamu aku, na tulivaga pamwera nawomberi kwa lijuma limu. Kwa likakala lya Rohu, wamgambira Paulu kotukugenda Yerusalemu.
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,
Kumbiti shipindi shetu pashiperiti tuwukiti woseri pamuhera na wadala na wana wawu watupelekiti mpaka kunja ya lushi. Patusokiti kumbwani, twawoseri tusundamaliti na tumluwa Mlungu.
6 we took leave of each other, and went on board the ship; and they returned home.
Shakapanu patulongiti kwaheri, twenga tukwena meli, nawomberi wawuya ukaya kwawu.
7 But we, finishing our voyage, came down from Tyre to Ptolemais; and having embraced the brethren, remained with them one day.
Twenga twendereyiti na mwanja gwetu kulawa Tiru tusoka Tolemaisi kweni tuwalamsiya wawumini, tulikaliti nawomberi lishaka limu.
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.
Shirawu yakuwi tuwukiti na tusoka Kaisariya. Aku tulikaliti ukaya kwa Mwinjilisti Filipi yomberi kaweriti yumu gwa walii saba wawasyaguliti kutanga Yerusalemu kulii.
9 And this man had four daughters, virgins, who prophesied.
Kaweriti na wahinga wamsheshi weni waweriti na shipaji sha kutakulira ujumbi wa Mlungu.
10 And while we were staying some days longer, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus;
Pawalikaliti aku mashaka ng'o, mbuyi yumu wamshema Agabu kiziti kulawa Yudeya.
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.
Katuyiziriti, katola Mkanda gwa Paulu, kalitawa mumawoku na mumagulu Kalonga, “Rohu Mnanagala katakula hangu, ‘Wayawudi Yerusalemu wamtawi ntambu ayi muntu kana mkanda agu na wantu wa maisi wamkamli.’”
12 But when we heard this, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go to Jerusalem.
Patupikiniriti aga, twenga na wantu wamonga walii wawaweriti panu tumluwiti Paulu kotukugenda Yerusalemu.
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.
Kumbiti Paulu kankuliti, “Mfira kutenda shishi? Mfira kugumega moyu gwangu kwa masozi? Neni nwera kala hera ndiri kutatilwa mnumba kulii Yerusalemu, ila ata kuhowa kwajili ya Mtuwa Yesu.”
14 And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased; saying, The Lord's will be done.
Patusinditi kumuzyangazyanga tunyamala, tulonga hera, “Shakafira Mtuwa shitendeki!”
15 And after those days we got ready our baggage, and went up to Jerusalem.
Pawatamiti palii kwa katepu, tuyopiti visanka vyetu, twendereyiti na mwanja kugenda Yerusalemu.
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.
Wamu wa wafundwa walii wa Kaisariya wagenditi pamuhera natwenga, watujega ukaya kwa Mnasoni yomberi tuweriti twankugenda kulikala nayomberi kwa katepu. Mnasoni kaweriti mwenikaya gwa kupiru na kaweriti muwumini gwa mashaka gavuwa.
17 And when we arrived at Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.
Patuyingiriti Yerusalemu, walongu wawumini watuyangiti weri nentu.
18 And the day following Paul went in with us to James; and all the elders were present.
Shirawu yakuwi Paulu kagenditi pamwera natwenga kumlamusiya Yakobu, na wazewi na shipinga sha wantu wawamjimira Yesu Kristu waweriti viraa.
19 And having embraced them, he recounted particularly what things God had wrought among the gentiles through his ministry.
Pawamlamsiyiti kala, Paulu kawayupiti shisoweru kamili kuusu goseri Mlungu gakaweriti kagatenda pakati pa wantu wa maisi kwa njira ya lihengu lyakuwi.
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.
Pawapikiniriti aga, wamkwisa Mlungu. Shakapanu kamgambira Paulu, “Mlongu, guweza kuwona handa kwana Wayawudi maelufu weni vinu wawera wajimira na woseri awa wagatenda weri malagaliru.
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.
Wapata visoweru vyakuwi handa guweriti gwanguwafunda Wayawudi yawalikala muwamu mwa wantu wa maisi gamonga nawagashera ndiri malagaliru ga Musa, kotukuwayigiziya jandu wananguta wawu na kotukuzifata mila za Wayawudi.
22 What then is to be done? The multitude will necessarily come together; for they will hear that thou hast come.
Nakaka wapikinira handa kasoka kala panu. Tutendi hashi, shakapanu?
23 Do this therefore that we advise thee. We have four men who have a vow on them.
Su, gutendi handa ntambu yatukugambiziyiti. Twa panu wantu msheshi weni watula nazili.
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.
Gwingiri pamuhera na womberi, gulipungi pamuhera na womberi na gulipi na shyasi shashiwusika kwa womberi shakapanu wamogi viri zawu. Su kila muntu hakavimani kuwera visoweru vyoseri vilii vyawagambiritwi kuusu gwenga vyahera mana, kumbiti gwenga gumweni gwendereya weri na kugajimira malagiliru ga Musa.
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.
Kuusu wantu walii wa maisi gamonga wantu yawamjimira Yesu, tuwajegera kala luhamba twankuwagambira vitwatira vyatuamuwiti, waleki kuliya shoseri shawatambikiriti kwa milungu, nawalanda mwazi ama nawaliya vinofu vya shigongolu yawaminduwitwi na waleki uhumba.”
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.
Su lishaka lyalifatiti Paulu kawatoliti wantu walii na kalipunga pamuhera nawu. Shakapanu kingira Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, pakabwera visoweru vya upeleru wa mashaka ga kulipunga na tambiku meitendwi kwa kila muntu.
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,
Shipindi mashaka saba aga pagiziti kupera, Wayawudi waweriti walawa pamkoa gwa Asiya wamwoniti Paulu Mnumba nkulu ya kumluwa Mlungu. Su, wasonguziya maya mushipinga shoseri sha wantu, wamkamula Paulu.
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.
“Wanaisi wa Israeli, wabotanga Mtutangi! Ayu ndomweni ulii muntu yakawafunditi wantu kila pahala shitwatira shawashilema wantu wa Israeli, yagalema Malagaliru ga Musa na pahala panu pananagala. Ata vinu kawayingiziya wantu wa maisi gamonga Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu na kupatula uhumba pahala panu pananagala.”
29 For they had before seen with him in the city Trophimus, the Ephesian, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.
Toziya ya kutakula hangu ndo kuwera waweriti wamwona Tirofimu, mwenikaya gwa Efesu, kaweriti pamuhera na Paulu mlushi, womberi walisheriti kuwera Paulu kaweriti kamwingiziya Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu.
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.
Lushi loseri lwingira ndewu, wantu wiza kulawa wega zoseri, wamlaviyiti Paulu kunja Kunumba nkulu ya Mlungu, na palaa panu milyangu itatwa ya Numba nkulu ya Mlungu.
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;
Waweriti kala kumlaga kumbiti visoweru vimwizira mkulu gwa wanjagila wa shiroma kuwera Yerusalemu yoseri iweriti imema ndewu.
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.
Kamu kamu mkulu gwa njagira kawatola wanjagila na mkulu gwa wanjagila, kashigendera shipinga sha wantu. Nawomberi pawamwoniti mkulu gwa njagira na wanjagila, waleka kumkoma Paulu.
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.
Mkulu gwa jeshi kamgenderiti Paulu, kambata na kuamuwa wamtawi minyololu mushimba. Shakapanu kawakosiiti, “Ndo muntu gaa ayu, na katenda shishi?”
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.
Wamonga mshipinga sha wantu shilii waweriti wankubwera shintu ashi na wamonga shintu shilii. Toziya ya ndewu ayi. Mkulu gwa wanjagila kapofola kulimana shawuli kamili. Hangu, kaamuwiti wantu wakuwi wamjegi Paulu kuliboma.
35 And when he reached the stairs, he was obliged to be borne by the soldiers, on account of the violence of the crowd;
Paulu pakasokiti palukweneru, wanjagila wampapiti toziya ya ndewu ya wantu.
36 for the multitude of the people were following, crying out, Away with him!
Toziya wantu mushipinga shikulu wamfatiti pawabotanga, “gumlagiri patali!”
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?
Pawaweriti wankumwingiziya muboma, Paulu kamluwiti mkulu gwa wajengeni kalonga, “Weza kutakula shintu?” Mkulu gwa njagira ulii kamwankula, “Hashi, gushimana shigiriki?”
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?
“Kwani gwenga ndo ulii Mmisri ulii mashana hera kayanjishiti ungondu na kawalonguziya majahili elufu msheshi mpaka kushiwala?”
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.
Paulu kankula, “Neni ndo Myawudi, mwiwuka gwa Tarisu pa Kilikiya, neni ndo mwiwuka gwa lushi lwalumanikana. Shondi nukuluwa, gunekeziyi ntakuli na wantu.”
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,
Mkulu ulii gwa wanjagila kamjimira. Hangu Paulu kagolokiti panani pa lukweneru, kawapungira mawoku wantu walii, na pawalikaliti jiii, kanja kuyowera nawomberi kwa Shiebraniya.
