Acts 28
1 And having escaped, we learned that the island was called Melita.
Tukaisheje ulele kulitaka, gutumumanyi kuti shilambo shitimbililwe mashi shila pushashemwaga Melita.
2 And the barbarians showed us no little kindness; for they kindled a fire, and received us all, because of the rain which had come on, and because of the cold.
Bhashilambo bha kweneko gubhatutendelenje mituka ja kaje. Pabha ula jatendeganya na twashinkukola mmbepo, gubhakumbenyenje moto gubhatushemelenje tubhowe.
3 And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid it on the fire, there came forth a viper by reason of the heat, and fastened on his hand.
A Pauli gubhalokwete neng'ene nshigo gumo gubhakwiile pamoto. Bhai, penepo kwa ligongo lya lyoto lya moto gula gwakopweshe lijoka jwa luma nneng'ene mula akwaanyembelaga a Pauli munkono.
4 And when the barbarians saw the animal hanging from his hand, they said to one another, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom though he hath escaped the sea, Justice hath not permitted to live.
Bhashilambo bha pepala bhakabhonanjeje lijoka alikwaakwela a Pauli, gubhabhalanjilenenje, “Ipingaga aju munduju ashibhulaga mundu nkali alamile gwangali kuwa mmashi, nnungu jwetu jwankongwe ashemwa Aki akanneka alame!”
5 He, however, shaking off the animal into the fire suffered no harm.
Ikabheje a Pauli gubhampukunyishiye pamoto lijoka jwa luma jula na wala jwangaaluma nkali kashoko.
6 But they were looking for his becoming swollen, or suddenly falling down dead. But after looking a great while, and seeing no harm come to him they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.
Bhandunji bhala gubhalinginji nkulolela kuti nkono gula shiguimbe eu a Pauli shibhagwe niwa popo. Bhakalolelanjeje paakabha nibhona wala shakwapi shikwakoposhela a Pauli, gubhatindigenyenje ng'aniyo yabhonji gubhashitenje kuti, jweneju nnungu.
7 And in the neighborhood of that place were lands be longing to the chief man of the island, whose name was Publius; who welcomed us, and entertained us kindly three days.
Tome na pepala jashinkupagwa migunda ja bhakulungwa bha shene shilambo shatimbililwe na mashisho lina lyabho pubhashemwaga a Pabhuliashi. Gubhatushemile kunngwabho kwa ntima gwa umbwiga, gututemi ujeni mobha gatatu.
8 And it happened that the father of Publius was lying sick with a fever and dysentery; to whom Paul went in, and, when he had prayed, laid his hands on him, and healed him.
Ainabhabho a Pabhuliashi bhashinkusheluka na guluma, bhali bhagonile pa shinanda. A Pauli gubhapite kwalola na gubhajujile Nnungu, gubhaabhishile makono gubhaalamiye.
9 And when this was done, the others also who had diseases in the island came, and were healed;
Gakatendesheje genego, bhalwelenji bhowe nnepeila pa shilambo pala gubhaaishilenje a Pauli na gubhalamiywenje.
10 who also honored us with many honors, and when we put to sea, loaded us with such things as were necessary.
Nabhalabhonji gubhatujogopenje kwa kaje, tukapanganisheje kujabhula, gubhapashilenje indu yaigwinji itwaipinjile.
11 And after three months we put to sea in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the island, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.
Jikapiteje myei jitatu gututandwibhe mwanja gwetu na meli jimo ja ku Alekishandilia jishemwa, “Ashinnungu bha Mmba.” Pujaliji kweneko miongwe jowe ja shipwepwe.
12 And landing at Syracuse, we stayed there three days;
Gutuishe shilambo sha ku Shilakusha gututemi mobha gatatu.
13 and from thence we made a circuit, and came to Rhegium; and after one day a south wind arose, and we came on the second day to Puteoli,
Tukajabhuleje penepo gututimbilile gutuishe ku Legio. Likapiteje lyubha limo, mbungo ja kushi jikutandubhaga kupuga na gakapiteje mobha gatatu gutuishe kubhandali ja Potioli.
14 where we found brethren, and were entreated to remain with them seven days; and so we went toward Rome.
Kweneko gutwaimenenje bhakilishitu ajetunji gubhatujujilenje tutame nabhonji juma jimo. Gutuishe ku Loma shana nneyo.
15 And from thence, the brethren having heard of us came to meet us as far as Appii Forum, and the Three Taverns; at the sight of whom Paul thanked God and took courage.
Bhakilishitu ajetunji bha ku Loma bhakapilikananjeje kuti tushiika, gubhaikengenenje kukutuposhela kumbwani ja Apio na Kunyumba Itatu ya Bhajeninji. A Pauli bhakaabhonanjeje gubhatendile eja kwa a Nnungu, gubhatagwilwe ntima.
16 And when we had come to Rome, Paul was permitted to dwell by himself, with the soldier that guarded him.
Tukaisheje ku Loma a Pauli gubhaleshelelwe kutama kujika muulinda uka linjola jumo.
17 And it came to pass that after three days he called together the chief men of the Jews, and when they had met he said to them, Brethren, I, though I had done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, was delivered up a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans;
Gakapiteje mobha gatatu a Pauli gubhaashemilenje ashikalongolele bha Shiyaudi bha shene shilambosho. Bhakaimananjeje gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Ashapwanga, shakwa shindendile na wala tauka ikubho ya ashinakulubhetu, nashinkukamulwa ku Yelushalemu kula na kamuywa mmakono ga Bhaloma.
18 who, when they had examined me, wished to release me, because I had done nothing deserving death.
Bhakamuyanjeje nibhona kuti shakwa shinebhile, gubhapinjilenje kung'opola bhanekanje.
19 But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar; not that I had any charge to bring against my nation.
Ikabheje Bhayaudi bhananji gubhakanilenje, gunyujile malobhe gangu gakamaliywe na bhakulungwa bha ku Loma a Kaishali, nkali ngakweteje malobhe gogowe ga kwaalugulanga bhashilambo ajangunji.
20 For this reason therefore I have called for you, to see you and speak to you; for it is on account of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain.
Bhai, kwa ligongo lya genego, njikunshemanga kunnolanje na tukungulushe, pabha njitabhwa ajino mindololo jino ligongo lya malagano ga a Nnungu ku bha Ishilaeli gala.”
21 And they said to him, We neither received letters from Judea concerning thee, nor did any one of the brethren that came report or speak any evil of thee.
Bhalabhonji gubhaalugulilenje, “Uwe tukanabhe poshela ntenga eu bhaluwa ja ngani jenu kopoka ku Yudea, wala jwakwa nkilishitu jojowe aishe apano kutubhalanjila lilobhe lyolyowe linnebhile mmwe.
22 But we think it proper to hear from thee what thou thinkest; for with regard to this sect, we know that it is everywhere spoken against.
Ikabheje tunapinga tupilikane shinkuganishiya mmwe, pabha uwe tumumanyi kuti mmbali yowe gwene nkumbigo unalugulwa mwangali mwambone.”
23 And when they had appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging; to whom he expounded, and earnestly testified, the kingdom of God, endeavoring to persuade them concerning Jesus both from the Law of Moses, and from the Prophets, from morning till evening.
Bhakalagananjeje lyubha lya imana, gubhaikengenenje bhandunji bhabhagwinji nnyumba jibhatamaga. Tandubhila lyamba mpaka ligulo a Pauli gubhaatalashiyenje ga Ukulungwa gwa a Nnungu, bhalilinga kwaatendanga bhakundanje ngani ja a Yeshu kwa talashiya shalia ja a Musha na ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu.
24 And some believed the things spoken, and some believed not.
Bhananji gubhakundilenje malobhe gala, ikabheje bhananji bhangakulupalilanga.
25 So, disagreeing with one another, they took their departure, after Paul had spoken one word: Well did the Holy Spirit speak through Isaiah the prophet to your fathers,
Bhai, gubhajabhulengene akuno bhali bhalekenenje ng'aniyo ga malobhe ga a Pauli ga kuti, mbena Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo abhelekete mwa mmbone na ashinakulubhenunji kwa kang'wa ja ankulondola bha a Nnungu a Ishaya,
26 saying, “Go to this people, and say, 'Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see and not perceive.
bhalinkuti, “‘Jenda kubhandunjibha ukaabhalanjilanje. Kupilikana shimpilkananje, ikabheje nkamumanyanga, Kulola shinnolanje, ikabheje nkaibhonanga.
27 For the heart of this people hath become gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart and turn from their ways, and I should heal them.'”
Pabha mitima ja bhene bhandunjibha jishitopa, bhashiibhanga makutu gabhonji meyo gabhonji bhashikupilanga. Gwangali nneyo, bhakalolilenje na meyo gabhonji, bhakapilikenenje na makutu gabhonji. Bhakaelewenje mmitima jabhonji, bhakaandendebhushilenje, bhashite Bhakulungwa, ngaalamiyenje.’”
28 Be it therefore known to you, that to the gentiles this salvation of God hath been sent; they, moreover, will hear.
Kungai a Pauli gubhashite, “Bhai, mmumanyanje kuti ntenga gwa a Nnungu gwa ngani ja ntapulo upelekwe ku bhandu bha ilambo ina. Bhalabhonji shibhapilikanilanje!”
Bhakabheleketeje genego, Bhayaudi gubhajabhulenje, bhalipita taukangana ashaayenenji.
30 And he abode two whole years in his own hired house and gladly received all that came in to him,
A Pauli gubhatemi ku Loma yaka ibhili nnyumba jibhapoleshe bhayene kwalipila mbiya, bhatendaga kwaposhelelanga bhowe bhaowelangaga.
31 proclaiming the kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, without hindrance from any one.
Bhatenda lunguya ga Ukulungwa gwa a Nnungu na jiganya ngani ja Bhakulungwa a Yeshu Kilishitu gwangali bhoga na jwakwa mundu abhalimbiyaga.
