Acts 5
1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
Nambu mundu mmonga liina laki Anania na mdala waki Safila vagulisi mewa chipandi cha mgunda wavi.
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.
Na mdala waki amanyili hotohoto kuvya mgwana waki afiyili mashonga gangi geapewili, na zingi zila azigotwili kwa vamitumi.
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?
Petili akamkota, “Anania ndava kyani Setani auyingili mtima waku na kumkonga Mpungu Msopi ujifiyili mashonga gangi geupewili mumgunda wula?
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.
Kwakona kugulisa mgunda wenuwo wavi waku, na pawaligulisi mashonga gala gavi gaku, uhengela chewigana. Ndava kyani, wahamwili mumtima waku kuhenga lijambu lenili? Umkongili lepi mundu, nambu umkongili Chapanga!”
5 And Ananias, hearing these words, fell down, and expired. And great fear came on all that heard of it.
Anania peagayuwini malovi ago, akagwa pahi akafwa na vandu voha vevagayuwini mambu ago vakayogopa neju.
6 And the young men arose, and wrapt him up, and carried him out, and buried him.
Vasongolo vakabwela, vakamugubika higa yaki kwa nyula ya msopi, vakamuwusa kuvala vakamuzika.
7 And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.
Pagamaliki masaa ngati gadatu, mdala waki changali kumanya mambu gegahumalili, akayingila mugati mula.
8 Peter said to her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much. And she said, Yes, for so much.
Petili akamkota, “Unijovela! Wu mashonga gemwapewili kwa kugulisa mgunda ndi gagaga?” Ndi mwene akamyangula, “Ena, ndi genaga.”
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.
Hinu, Petili akamjovela mdala yula, “Wuli muyidakilini kumlinga Mpungu wa Bambu? Yuwanila! Vandu vala vevahambili kumzika mgwana waku, hinu vavi pamlyangu ndi yati vakukutola mewa na veve.”
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.
Bahapo safila akagwa palongolo ya magendelu ga Petili, akafwa. Vasongolo vala pavayingili vamkolili amali kufwa, ndi vakamuwusa kuvala, vakamuzika papipi na mngwana waki.
11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon all that heard of these things.
Wogohi uvaha ukavayingila msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu voha na vandu voha, vevayuwini malovi ga lijambu lenilo.
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.
Chapanga ahengili kwa njila ya vanalihengu gachinamtiti na makangaso gamahele pagati ya vandu. Na vamsadika vakonganikayi pamonga mulibanji la Solomoni.
13 But of the rest no one dared to join himself to them. But the people highly honored them;
Mundu yungi yoyoha angalikuvya msadika, valingili lepi kuwungana nawu. Nambu vandu vangi vangasadika vavalumbalili.
14 and more and more were believers added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women;
Nambu vandu vamahele vevamsadiki Bambu, vagosi na vadala vakayonjokeseka neju.
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.
Hati vandu vavagegili vatamu vavi munjila na kuvagonesa mu lusongwani na mumipasa, muni Petili akapitayi, mbanga chimuwili chaki chivahikila vangi pagati yavi.
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.
Vandu vamahele vabwelili kuhuma mumiji yeyitindila Yelusalemu, vavaletili vatamu wavi na vevavi na mizuka yihakau, ndi voha vakalamiswa.
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,
Kangi, Mteta Mkulu na vayaki va chikundi cha Vasadukayu ndi vandu vevisadika kuvya vandu nakuhotola kuyuka va pandu penapo, vakayva na wihu kwa vamitumi.
18 and laid hands on the apostles, and put them in the public prison.
Hinu vakavakamula vamitumi na kuvakunga muchifungu chikulu.
19 But an angel of the Lord in the night opened the prison-doors, and brought them forth and said,
Nambu kilu mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga, akadindula mlyangu wa muchifungu yikulu, akavahumisa kuvala, akavajovela,
20 Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.
“Muhambayi mukayima Munyumba ya Chapanga, mkavajovela vandu malovi ga kuuvala wumi wa mupya.”
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.
Vamitumi vakayidakila, vakayingila Munyumba ya Chapanga lukela pehe, vakatumbula kuwula. Mteta Mkulu na vayaki pavahikili, vakemili mngonganu wa libanji likulu na vagogo voha va Isilaeli, kangi vavatumili vandu kujela vavaleta vamitumi vala.
22 But the officers that came did not find them in the prison; and they returned and brought word,
Nambu valonda va muchifungu pavahikili, vavakolili lepi. Ndi vakawuya na kujova kwa vakulu va libanji,
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.
“Tikolili jela yidindanu na valonda vavi mumilyangu kulindalila. Nambu patadindwili milyangu tamkolili lepi mundu yoyoha mugati.”
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.
Mkulu wa valonda wa Nyumba ya Chapanga na Vamteta Vakulu pevayuwini genago, vakavya na wogohi, ndava nakuchimanya chechavakolili.
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.
Kangi, akabwela mundu mmonga na kuvajovela, “Yuwanila! Vandu vala vemkavakungili muchifungu, hinu vavi Munyumba ya Chapanga vakuvawula vandu.”
26 Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence, that they might not be stoned; for they feared the people.
Bahapo mkulu wa valonda na vahenga lihengu vaki, vakahamba Munyumba ya Chapanga vakavaleta. Nambu nakuvakamula kwa makakala, muni vayogwipi vandu yati vakuvatova na maganga.
27 And having brought them, they set them before the council. And the high-priest questioned them,
Hinu, vavapeliki vamitumi vala, vakavayimika palongolo ya libanji, ndi Mteta Mkulu akavajovela,
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.
“Tavabesili hotohoto kuwula paliina la mundu uyu, hinu mugadandisi mawuliwu ginu pa Yelusalemu poha mwigana kutigegesa ngasi ya mundu uyu.”
29 But Peter and the apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
Petili pamonga na vamitumi vayaki vakayangula, “Yikutigana kumyidakila Chapanga, kuliku mundu.
30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew by hanging him on a cross;
Chapanga wa vagogo vitu amyukisi Yesu mwemwamkomili nyenye na kumvamba pamsalaba.
31 him hath God exalted by his right hand, as a Leader and Saviour, to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
Mwenuyu ndi yula mwealumbiwi na Chapanga mbaka upandi wa kulyelela, kuvya Chilongosi na Msangula, muni avakita vandu va Isilaeli vamuwuyila Chapanga, muni vapata kulekekesewa kumbudila.
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.
Tete ndi taliwene lijambu lenilo, na Mpungu Msopi, Chapanga avapelili vala vevakumyidakila mwene.”
33 But when they heard this, they were filled with rage, and were resolving to kill them.
Vajumbi voha va libanji lila pevayuwini genago, vakamema ligoga vakahamula kuvakoma.
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,
Nambu mundu mmonga Mfalisayu liina laki Gamalieli, muwula wa malagizu ga Bambu geampeli Musa na mweitopeswa na vandu voha. Akayima mu libanji palongolo ya vandu akalagiza vamitumi vala vawusiwayi kuvala mulukumbi luhupi.
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.
Kangi akavajovela vajumbi va libanji vala, “Vandu va Isilaeli, mjiyangalila kwakona mwangakita, chemwigana kuvakitila vandu ava!
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.
Magono ga mumbele, ahumalili mundu mmonga liina laki Teudosi, akajijovela kuvya mundu wa kutopela, vandu ngati miya mcheche vakajiwunga nayu. Nambu akomiwi, kangi vamulanda vaki vakapechengana chikundi chaki chafwili.
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.
Mwanakandahi kavili, lukumbi lwa kuvalangiwa vandu, ahumalili Yuda wa ku Galilaya. Mewawa mwenuyo avakulukisi vandu vakamulanda, nambu mwenuyo mewawa akomiwi vamulanda vaki vakapechengana.
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;
Hinu nene nikuvajovela ndava ya mhalu uwu, mujiyepa na vandu ava! Mvalekayi vahamba. Ndava muni ngati mpangu wenuwo utumbuliwi na vandu yati wiyaga wene.
39 but if it be of God, ye will not be able to overthrow them; lest haply ye be found also fighting against God.
Nambu ngati mpangu wenuwu uhumili kwa Chapanga, nakuhotola kuvabesa vandu ava, muni mwavene yati mukujikolela mukumbela Chapanga!” Ndi vakayidakilana na malovi ga Gamalieli.
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.
Hinu, vakavakemele vamitumi vala, vakahamula vatovewa michapilu na kuvabesa vakotoka kuwula kavili paliina la Yesu, ndi vakavaleka vahamba.
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;
Hinu, vamitumi vakahuma mu libanji kuni vamemi luheku, muni Chapanga avahololili kuvya vene yavaganili kukola soni ndava ya liina la Yesu.
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.
Kila ligono vayendalili kuwula na kukokosa Munyumba ya Chapanga na munyumba za vandu, Lilovi la Bwina la Yesu Kilisitu.
