Acts 28
1 And having escaped, we learned that the island was called Melita.
Yetufiike vunofu, tulyakagwile kuuti ikiponge kitambulua Malta.
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.
Avaanhu va palikaja na kwe kuti vakatuupilile uvuhugu vwa vulevule, pe valyapembile umwooto na pikutukaribisia tweeni, ulwakuva ifula ni mepo jikale jighendelela.
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.
Looli u Paulo ye akang'anisie unsigho ghwasanjala na kuvika pa mwooto, ilijoka ilidebe ilinya sumu likahuma mu sanjala sila ulwakuva lwa vufukefu vuula pe likin'yengelela mu luvoko lwa mweene.
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.
Avaanhu va pa likaja pala yevalolile kwiiti ilijoka liswembela kuhuma muluvoko lwa mweneenevapuling'ana vavuo,”Umuunhu uju kyang'haani m'buudi junoadyeghile mu Nyanja looli uvwakyangani navukuntavula kukukala.”
5 He, however, shaking off the animal into the fire suffered no harm.
Looli umweene akantaghila ilijoka ilio kumwooto nakapatile uvunangifu vwooni.
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.
Aveene vakumughula afimbe inamu nambe aghue na kalingi na kufua. looliye nimulolile ku nsiki untali na kulola kuuti na kwelili lino lilivulevule kwa mweene wakabadilisia amasaghe ghavanave na kuuti alyyale unguluve.
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.
Kange pala pipi palyale ni iisi jinojilyale kyuma kya m'baha wa kiponge, umuunhu juno itambulua pablio. Alatwupilile na pikututengelela ifighono fitatu.
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.
Lulyahumile kuuti viise wa pablio jikam'bwene imungu ni namu ija kuhalisia. Na ju Paulo amulutile akifunya, akavika amavoko pa kyanya pa mwene na pikum'buvusia.
9 And when this was done, the others also who had diseases in the island came, and were healed;
Yelihumile ili, avaanhu avange pa kiponge pala vano valyale vivavua voope vakaluta vakavuvusivua.
10 who also honored us with many honors, and when we put to sea, loaded us with such things as were necessary.
Avaanhu vakatwoghopa nu vwoghofi uvukome. Panotukale tukuling'ania kukyula, vakatupelile fila fino tukafivombile.
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.
Yeghakilile ameesi gha tatu, tulyaghendile mu nkate mu meli Iskanda jino jilyakolilue ni ng'ala pa kiaponge pala, jino avalongosi va jene valyale vanyalukolo va vili ava lipasa.
12 And landing at Syracuse, we stayed there three days;
Pano yetupumile mu likaja ilya sirakusa, tulikalile pala ivighono vi tatu.
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,
Kuhumila pala tukaghendile tukafike mulikaja ilya Regio. Ye kikilile ikighono kimo imepo ija kumavemba jilyahumile nakalingi, yefikilile ifighono fivili tukafikile mulikaja ilya Putoli.
14 where we found brethren, and were entreated to remain with them seven days; and so we went toward Rome.
Ukuo kwe tukavavwene ava nyalukolo avange vakatupilile kukukala navoope ifighono lekela lubale. Kusila iji tukisile ku Rumi.
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.
Kuhuma ukuo avanyalukolo vala, yevapulike imola isiitu, vakisile kukutwambilila ukuo kulighulilo ilya Apias ni Hoteli itatu. U Paulo ye avavwene avanyalukolo vala valyamongisie u Nfuluve pe akavika ni ngufu.
16 And when we had come to Rome, Paul was permitted to dwell by himself, with the soldier that guarded him.
Pano ye twingile ku Roma, u Paulo akatavulilue kukukala mwene palikimo nu n'sikali jula juno alyale ikumulolela.
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;
Yefikilile ifighono fitatu u Paulo akavakemelile palikimo avaghosi vala vano valyale valongosi mun'kate muva Yahudi. Vano vakisile palikimo, alyajovile kuvanave, “Vanyalukolo, palikimo na kuuti nanihokile n'kole ku vaanhu ava nambe kuvomba luno nalulondua nava Nhaata viitu vanovalyatulongolile, vakanyumisie hwene n'kungua kuhuma ku Yerusalemu kufika hadi mumavoko gha va Rumi.
18 who, when they had examined me, wished to release me, because I had done nothing deserving death.
Yevamalile kukumoselesia, vakanoghilue kukundekesia mu vwavuke ulwakuva nalulyale lumonga kulyune ulwa ku hulila pi kum'buuda
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.
Looli ava Yahudi vala vakaati vajovile vunge kuluno vinoghelua avene, penilyaghimbile pihumia apiru kwa Kaisari, napano nalulyale lunyakuva ndiikio nileta amasitaka mu kipelela kyango.
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.
Ulwakuva kiki une nilete i apiru, pa uluo nilyasumile kukuvagha na kujova navoope. Ulwakuva kiila u Israel alipisie nakyo, niikungilue muvukunge uvu.
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.
Pe vakam'bula, “Natughelile twupile ikalata kuhuma ku Yudea jino jikukujova uve, nambe nakwale unyalukolo juno akisile nakuhumia imola nambe kujova ilisio limonga ilivivi vwimila uve.
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.
Looli tulonda kupulika kuhuma kulyuve ghusagha kiki vwimila ilipugha lya vaanhu ava, ulwakuva sivoneka kulyumue kuuti nijova fiivi pooni pano nilipuo.”
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.
Vakaati vavikile ikighono vwimila umwene, avaanhu vinga kyongo valyamwisile pano ikalagha. Alyajovile ilisio lila kuvanave napikuvolelela vwimila ulwa vutua vwa Nguluve. Akaghelile kukuvavika vunofu vwimila u Yesu, kusooni ivili kuhumila mu ngaghilo sa Musa na kuhuma mu vavili, kutengulila pa lwakilavo kufika umpaka pakivwilile.
24 And some believed the things spoken, and some believed not.
Mun'kate mu vavuo vakavahongile kusimo sikajovilue, napano avange navakitike.
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,
Yevakunilue pikwiting'ana vao kwa vao vakavuka u Paulo ye ajvile imola iji jimo, “U Mhepo u Mwimike vunofu kukuka u Isaya um'biili ghwa va Nhaata viitu.
26 saying, “Go to this people, and say, 'Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see and not perceive.
Akaati, 'Luta kuvaanhu ava ujove, “Ku mbughulutu siinu mum'pulika, looli na mungakitang'anie; na kumaaso ghinu mulola looli namungakagule.
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.'”
Vwimila vwa numbula sa vaanhu ava siila vuvotevote, imbughulutu save sim'pulike ni mumuko, vadindile amaso gha vanave; neke kuuti valeke kukagula ku maso gha vanave, nakum'pulika ku mbughulutu sivsnave, napikun'tang'ania mu nhumbula sivanave, na pisyetuka kange, ngele nivavuvwisie.”
28 Be it therefore known to you, that to the gentiles this salvation of God hath been sent; they, moreover, will hear.
Pa uluo, mu noghile kukagula kuuti uvuvangi vwa Nguluve vutwalilue ku vaanhu ava panji, kange vipulikisyagha.” (Gadilila: Ikidebe iki
“Un'siki ghuno alyajovile amasio agha, ava Yahudi vakabuka, kuno vighelana kyongo vavuo kwa vavuo, nakwesile muvutavike uvunofu uvwa kali).
30 And he abode two whole years in his own hired house and gladly received all that came in to him,
U Paulo akikalile mu nyumba ja mwene ijakupanga amaka ghaviili, kange alyavambilile vooni vanoon vano vakalutagha kwa mwene.
31 proclaiming the kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, without hindrance from any one.
Alyale idalikila uvutua vya Nguluve kange alyale ivulanisia amasio vwimila vwa Mutwa Yesu Kilisite mungufu sooni. Nakwale juno kan'sighile.
