Acts 5
1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
Lino umwi mwalumi uutegwa Ananiyasi, nkali a Safila mwanakazi wakwe, bakawuzya chimpanzi chabuvubi,
2 and kept back part of the price, his wife also having knowledge of it; and brought a certain part, and laid it at the feet of the apostles.
alimwi wakabamba musule chimpanzi chamuulo wamali ( mwanakazi wakwe kabiyo wakalizizi ezi), alimwi wakeeta chimpanzi chazyo alimwi wakachibika kumawulu amu abatumwa.
3 But Peter said, Ananias, why did Satan fill thy heart that thou shouldst lie to the Holy Spirit, and keep back part of the price of the land?
Pesi Pita wakati, “Ananiyasi, nkambonzi satani naazuzya moyo wako kuti ubeje ku Muuya Uusalala alimwi kuti ubambe musule chimpanzi chamuulo wamuunda?
4 While it remained, was it not thine own? And after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? Why didst thou conceive this thing in thy heart? Thou didst not lie to men, but to God.
Niwalikusyaala nkawutawuziziwwe, tensi wakayimvwi kawuli wako, alimwi akuzwa nkawuli wawuzigwa, saa wakali munsi lyanuzu zyako? Nwani oyo wabika eyi milimo mumoyo wako? Teensi wabejela muntu pesi kuli Leza.”
5 And Ananias, hearing these words, fell down, and expired. And great fear came on all that heard of it.
Naakamvwa majwi aya, Ananiyasi wakawida aansi mpawo wayoya kwakumaninsizya, alimwi kuyoowa kupati kwakasika kuli boonse bakamvwa eezi.
6 And the young men arose, and wrapt him up, and carried him out, and buried him.
Balombe bakanyampuka alimwi bamuvunilizya, alimwi bakamubweza alimwi bakumuvwikka.
7 And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.
Nikwakiinda biyo otatwe mahoola, mwanakazi wakwe wakanjila, katezi kuti niinzi zyachitika.
8 Peter said to her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much. And she said, Yes, for so much.
Pita wakati kulinuwe, “Ndibuzye naanka mwawuzya muunda azeezi, “wakati, “Iyii, azeezi.”
9 And Peter said to her, Why is it that ye agreed together to try the Spirit of the Lord? Lo! the feet of those who have buried thy husband are at the door, and they will carry thee out.
Mpawo Pita wakati kulinuwe, “Mbuubuli mbumwazuminana moonse kuti musunke muuya wa Leza? Bona mawulu abaalumi bavwikka mulumi wako ali amulyango, alimwi bayokubweza ayebo.”
10 And she fell down immediately at his feet, and expired; and the young men, when they came in, found her dead, and carried her out, and buried her by her husband.
Mpawo mpawo wakawida ansi kumawulu aakwe alimwi wakayoya kwakumaninsizya. Elyo baluumi nibakanjila, bakamujana nkafwide, alimwi bakamubweza alimwi bakumuvwikka kumbali lyamulumi.
11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon all that heard of these things.
Kuyoowa kupati kwakasika akkati kayoonse imbungano alimwi aakati kaboonse aabo bakamvwa eezi.
12 And many signs and wonders were wrought among the people by the hands of the apostles; and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.
Zyingi zitondezyo alimwi azigambyo zyakalikuchitika akati kabantu kwiinda mumaanza abatumwa. Bakali antoomwe kumulyango wa Solomoni.
13 But of the rest no one dared to join himself to them. But the people highly honored them;
Pesi takwe wabo wakaba aachiyandisyo chakuba antomwe ambabo; nikuba boobo bantu bakabalemeka.
14 and more and more were believers added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women;
Kabiyo biingi basyomi bakali kuyungizizigwa ku Mwami, bantu biingi bechalumi mpawo abanakazi,
15 so that in the streets they brought out the sick, and laid them on beds and couches, in order that at least the shadow of Peter, as he passed, might overshadow some of them.
nkokuti bakali kubweza bachiswa muchisi alimwi babalazika aabulo amuzitobo, kuchitila kuti awo Pita nayosika, muzuzumbwe wakwe wayino wida alibamwi babo.
16 The multitude also belonging to the cities around came together to Jerusalem bringing the sick, and those plagued by unclean spirits; and they were all healed.
Mpawo bakasika kabiyo antomwe bantu biingi bazwa muchisi chilafwifwi a Jelusalema, nkabeeta bachiswa alimwi abaabo bajiswi aa myuya yamatombe, alimwi balikuponesegwa boonse.
17 But the high-priest and all that were with him, which is the sect of the Sadducees, rose up and were filled with indignation,
Pesi mupayizi mupati wakanyampuka, mpawo aboonse abo bakali anguwe ( aabo benkamu yama Sajusizi); alimwi bakazwa munyono
18 and laid hands on the apostles, and put them in the public prison.
alimwi bakabika maanza aatala lyaba tumwa, mpawo babawala muntolongo yakazibinkene.
19 But an angel of the Lord in the night opened the prison-doors, and brought them forth and said,
Elyo muchindi chamansiku mungelo wa Leza wakajula mulyano wentolongo alimwi wakabagwisya aanze, mpawo wakati,
20 Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.
“Mwiinke, mwime muntempele mpawo mwambule kubantu majwi woonse abuumi.”
21 And hearing this, they went into the temple at daybreak and taught. But the high-priest and they that were with him came and called together the council, and all the elders of the sons of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
Nibakamvwa eezi, bakanjila muntempele nkakuli kwamba kucha mpawo bayiisya. Pesi mupayizi mupati wakasika mpawo ababo bakali anguwe, alimwi bakayita mulubeta antomwe, boonse bapati babantu bamu Izilayeli, mpawo babatuma kuntolongo kuti bakeete batumwa.
22 But the officers that came did not find them in the prison; and they returned and brought word,
Pesi bakapokola abo bakayinka tebakabajana pe muntolongo, mpawo bakaboola kukuzowamba,
23 saying, The prison we found shut in all security and the keepers standing at the doors: but when we opened them, we found no one within.
“Twajana intolongo mbuli mbukwelede kazijalidwe kabiyo balindizi kabiimvwi amulyango, pesi nitwajula, twajana takwe pe ulimukati.”
24 And when the priest, and the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these words, they were at a loss concerning them, to what this would come.
Lino basilumamba bentempele antomwe abapayizi bapati nibakamvwa aya majwi, baka bulikilwa atala ambabo kuti mbobuli mbubanga balazwa kulinzizyo.
25 But one came and brought them word, Lo! the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people.
Elyo umwi wakasika mpawo wabaambila, “Balumi aabo mbimwakabika mukkati kentolono balimvwi mukkati kantempele mpawo balikuyiisya bantu.”
26 Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence, that they might not be stoned; for they feared the people.
Eelyo silumamba wakiinka aamwi abakapokola, mpawo wababoozya musule, pesi kakutakwe kulwana, eelyo nkabayowede kuti balabatulula mabwe.
27 And having brought them, they set them before the council. And the high-priest questioned them,
Nibaka beeta, baka bakkazika munsi ababetesi. Mupayizi mupati wakaba buzisisya, nkati,
28 saying, We strictly commanded you not to teach in this name, and lo! ye have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and mean to bring this man's blood upon us.
“Twalayilila ndinywe a mulawu kuti mutayiisyi muzina eeli, mpawo lino mwazuzya Jelusalema enjiisyo achiyandisyo chenu alimwi mwayeya akweeta bulowa bwamwalumi oyu atala lyesu.”
29 But Peter and the apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
Alimwi Pita abatumwa bakasandula, “Twelede kulemeka Leza kwinda muntu.
30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew by hanging him on a cross;
Leza wabamataata wakabusya Jesu, oyo numwakajaya akumwanzika mumusamu.
31 him hath God exalted by his right hand, as a Leader and Saviour, to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
Leza wakamunyampula kubbazu lyakuchilisyo kuti abe mwana wa Mwami mpawo amufutuli, kuti ape kusanduka ku Izilayeli, mpawo akulekelelwa kwazibi.
32 And we are his witnesses of these things, and so also is the Holy Spirit which God hath given to those who obey him.
Ndiswe bakamboni bazeezi zintu, mpawo ngu Muuya Uusalala, oyo Leza ngwakapa kulibaabo bamulemeka.”
33 But when they heard this, they were filled with rage, and were resolving to kill them.
Eelyo bazuluzi bamwi nibakamvwa eezi, bakanyema alimwi bakayanda kujaya batumwa.
34 But there stood up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, in high esteem with all the people, and commanded to put the men forth a little while,
Pesi mufalisi uutegwa Gamaliyeli, muyiisyi wamulawu oyo wakalikulemekwa aboonse bantu, wakanyampuka mubazuluzi mpawo wakalayilila batumwa kuti bagwisigwe kwakiindi kanini.
35 and said to them [[of the council]], Men of Israel, take heed to yourselves as to what ye are about to do in respect to these men.
Mpawo wakati kulimbabo, “Nobaluumi bamu Izilayeli, amuswilizye loko kuli nzimwa zuminana kuti muchite kubantu aba.
36 For before these days arose Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain, and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and came to nought.
Nkambo musule amazuba aya, Tewudasi wakanyampuka nkali kuyanda kuba uumwi, mpawo bantu biini, basika myaanda iine, bakaba antomwe anuwe. Wakajayigwa, eelyo boonse abo bakali kumulemeka baka mwayisiwampawo kwakamana.
37 After this man arose Judas the Galilaean, in the days of the registering, and drew people away after him; he also perished, and all, as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.
Nikwakazwa ooyu mwalumi, Judasi waku Galili wakanyampuka mumazuba akubalwa kwabantu mpawo wakachunzya kule abantu kuzwa kulinuwe. Alakwe wakajayigwa, mpawo boonse abo bakali kumulemeka bakamwayika.
38 And now I say to you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone; for if this design or this work be of men, it will come to nought;
Lino ndamba kulindinywe, ikuti muye kule kuzwa kubantu aba mpawo ubayiisye abalikke, kjuti aya mabambe naa mulimo kuti nkazili zyamuntu, ziyosowegwa.
39 but if it be of God, ye will not be able to overthrow them; lest haply ye be found also fighting against God.
Pesi kuti nkazili zya Leza, tamukoyo kkonzya pe kuzimwaya; muyojana kuti munoyolwana a Leza.” Eelyo bakazumina.
40 And they were persuaded by him; and having called the apostles, they beat them, and commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and released them.
Eelyo bakayita batumwa mukkati alimwi babawuma mpawo babalayilila kuti taba nochambuli muzina lya Jesu, mpawo bakabaleka beenda.
41 They therefore went away from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame in behalf of that name;
Bakaya kule kuzwa musule abazuluzi nkaba boteledwe kuti bakali baswanana kabiyo akupenzegwa akuwisya bulemu bwezina.
42 and every day, in the temple, and in houses, they ceased not to teach, and to publish the glad tidings concerning Jesus the Christ.
Kuzwa wawo woonse mazuba, mukkati kentempele alimwi kuzwa kung'anda akung'anda, bakali kwinkilila anembo akuyobuyiisya alimwi akuyobumwaya milumbe mibotu kuti Jesu ngu Kkilisitu.
