Acts 9
1 But Saul, yet breathing out threatening and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
Lakini Sauli, ajhendelili kujobha fitisho ata fya kufwa kwa bhanafunzi bha Bwana, alotili kwa kuhani mbaha
2 and asked of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any who were of this way of belief, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
ni kun'soka barua kwa ndabha jha masinagogi oku Dameski, ili kwamba akankabha munu jha ajhe mu njela jhela ajhele n'gosi au n'dala, abhakongayi ni kubhaleta Yerusalemu.
3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus; and suddenly there shone around a him a light from heaven;
Hata bho isafiri, jhatokili bho ikaribila Dameski, gafla jhikamwangasya kokuoha nuru kuh'omela kumbinguni,'
4 and he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
ni muene akabina pasi na ap'eliki sauti jhikan'jobhela, “Sauli, Sauli, mbona ukanitesya nene?”
5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And he answered, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
Sauli ajibili, bhebhe ghwe niani Bwana? Bwana akajobha, “Nene ndo Yesu jha ukanidadisya;
6 But arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.
Lakini jhinukayi, jhingilayi ku mjini nabhi ghwibeta kujobhighwa gha wilondeka kubhomba.
7 And the men that journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing the voice, but seeing no one.
Bhanu bhabhasafiri pamonga ni Sauli bhatulili kinunu, kupelekesya sauti, bhabhwelepi munu.
8 And Saul arose from the earth; but when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing; and they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.
Sauli akajhinuka mu nchi na bho afunguili mihu gha muene abhwesilepi kulola khenu, bhakankamula kibhoko bhakandeta mpaka Dameski.
9 And he was three days without sight, and neither ate nor drank.
Kwa magono madatu ilolalepi, ilyalepi, wala kunywa.
10 And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias, and to him the Lord said in a vision, Ananias! And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.
Basi pajhele ni mwanafunzi Dameski lihina lya muene Anania, Bwana ajobhinaku ku lugono, “Anania.” Na ajobhili, “Langayi, jhele apa, Bwana.
11 And the Lord said to him, Arise, and go into the street called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus; for lo! he prayeth,
“Bwana akan'jobhela, “Jhemayi ulotayi mu mtaa bhwa bhwikutibhwa Nyofu, ni mu nyumba jha Yuda na kakotelesiajhi munu kuhoma Tarso jhaikutibhwa Sauli; Maana akona isoka;
12 and hath seen a man, named Ananias, coming in and putting his hand on him, that he might receive sight.
na ambwene mu maono munu lihina lya muene Anania ijhingila ni kumbekela mabhoko panani pa muene kwamba abhwesyahi kulola.
13 But Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how great evils he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem.
Lakini Anania ajibili, “Bwana, nip'eliki habari sya munu ojhu kwa bhanu bhingi, kwa kiasi kereku abhabhombili mabhibhi bhatakatifu bha okhu Yerusalemu;
14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.
Apa ajhe ni mamlaka kuhomakwa kuhani mbaha kun'kamula khila munu jha ikalitia lihina lya bhebhe.
15 But the Lord said to him, Go; for this man is to me a chosen vessel, to bear my name before nations, and kings, and the sons of Israel.
Lakini Bwana akan'jobhela, “Lotayi, kwandabha ndo khenu kiteule kwa nene alitolayi lihina lya nene mbele jha mataifa ni bhafalme ni bhana bha Israeli.
16 For I myself will show him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.
Maana nibetakubhalasya ghaghajhe mingi ghaghibekundondeka kutesibhwa kwandabha jha lihina lya nene”.
17 And Ananias went away, and entered the house; and putting his hands on him, he said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus who appeared to thee in the way thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mayst receive sight, and be filled with the Holy Spirit.
Anania akalota, akajhingila mugati mu nyumba m'ola; akambekela mabhokho akajobha, Ndongo Sauli, Bwana Yesu, jhaakuh'omili pa njela bho wihida, anilaghisi ukabhayi kulola kabhele na ujhiagha ni Roho mtakatifu.
18 And immediately there fell off from his eyes as it were scales; and he received sight, and arose, and was baptized.
Gafla fikabina fenu pamihu pa muene kama magamba, abhwesi kulola, akajhema, akabatisibhwa akalya kyakulya ni kukabha nghofu.
19 And having taken some food he was strengthened. And he was some days with the disciples in Damascus.
Akatama pamonga ni bhanafunzi okhu Dameski kwa magono ghamehele.
20 And immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
Wakati bhobhuobhu akan'tangasya Yesu mu masinagogi, akajobha kujha muene ndo mwana ghwa K'yara.
21 And all that heard him were amazed, and said, Is not this he that destroyed in Jerusalem those who called on this name? And he hath come hither for this purpose, that he may bring them bound to the chief priests.
Na bhoha bhabhap'eliki bhashangele ni kujobha, “Munu ojholepi jha abhaharibu bhoha bhabhakuti lihina e'le okhu Yerusalemu? Na apa ahidili kwa kusudi la kubhakhonga ni kubhap'eleka kwa Makuhani.”
22 But Saul gained still more strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.
Lakini Sauli abhwesibhu kuhubiri ni kubhafwanya bhayahudi bhabhetanieli Dameski bhachanganyikibhwayi ni kuthibitisha jha kujha ojho ndo Kristu.
23 But after many days had passed, the Jews took counsel together to kill him;
Baada jha magono ghamehele, bhayahudi bhakabhomba Shauri pamonga ili bhan'komayi.
24 but their plot became known to Saul; and they were even watching the gates day and night to kill him.
Lakini mpango ghwa bhene ghwajulikene kwa Sauli. Bhakanvizila pa ndiangu pamusi ni pakilu bhabhwesyayi kun'koma.
25 But his disciples took him by night, and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
Lakini bhanafunzi bha muene bhakan'tola pakilu bhakan'selesya kup'etela pa ukuta, bhakan'selesya pasi mu kapu.
26 And when he had come to Jerusalem, he attempted to join himself to the disciples; and they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
Ni Sauli bho afikili Yerusalemu, ajaribu kwilonga ni bhanafunzi lakini bhakajha bhiken'tila bhakajha bhikiera lepi kama ni muene mwanafunzi.
27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and related to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that he had spoken to him, and hew he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.
Lakini Barnaba akan'tola ni kumpeleka kwa mitume, Ni kubhajhelesya jinsi Sauli kya ambwene Bwana munjele ni Bwana kyaajobhinaku, ni jinsi Sauli kyaahubiri kwa ujasiri kwa lihina lya Yesu okhu Dameski.
28 And he was with them going in and out at Jerusalem,
Abhonene nabhu bho bhijhingila ni kupita Yerusalemu. Ajobhikwa ujasiri lihina lya Bwana Yesu,
29 speaking boldly in the name of the Lord. And he often spoke and disputed with the Hellenists; but they were endeavoring to slay him.
Akajhaihojiana ni bhayahudi bha kiyunani lakini bhakajha bhijaribu mara kwa mara kun'koma.
30 But the brethren obtaining knowledge of it, brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.
Wakati bhalongomunu bhamanyili lijambo elu, bhakan; tola mpaka Kaisari, na bhampelekayi alolayi Tarso.
31 The church therefore throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria had peace, being built up, and walking in the fear of the Lord; and by the exhortation of the Holy Spirit it was greatly increased.
Basi likanisa lyoha mu bhuyahudi, Galilaya ni Samaria, lyajhele ni imani, na lyajengibhu, ni kugenda mu hofu jha Bwana ni faraja jha Roho mtakatifu, kanisa lyakholili kwa kujhongeseka idadi.
32 And it came to pass, that as Peter went through the whole country, he came down also to the saints who dwelt at Lydda.
Kisha atokili Petro bho isyongokasyongoka pande syoha sya mkoa, akabhaselelela bhaumini bhabhatameghe mu mji ghwa Lida.
33 And there he found a certain man named AEneas, who had lain on a bed eight years, and was palsied.
Ambwene okhu munu mmonga jhaakutibhweghe Ainea, munu ojhu ajhele pakitanda miaka mia nane; maana apozili.
34 And Peter said to him, AEneas, Jesus the Christ healeth thee; arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.
Petro akan'jobhela, “Ainea, Yesu Kristu akuponyiayi; Jhumukayi ni ukitandikilayi kitanda kya jhobhi,” Mara akajhumuka.
35 And all that dwelt in Lydda and Sharon saw him; and they turned to the Lord.
Ni bhanu bhoha bhabhatamili Lida ni Sharoni bho bhambwene munu ojhu, bhan'geukili Bwana.
36 Now at Joppa there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which name being interpreted is the same as Dorcas, that is, Gazelle. This woman was full of good works and alms-deeds which she did.
Pajhele ni bhanafunzi Yafa jhaakutibhweghe Tabitha, ambalyo lyatasfriribhu kama “Dorcas” N'dala ojhu ajasisi mambo kinofu ni matendo gha rehema ghaaghabhombi kwa maskini.
37 And it came to pass in those days, that she fell sick, and died; and when they had washed her, they laid her in an upper chamber.
Jhatokili katika magono aghu alwalili ni kufwa; bhobhan'safisi, bhan'kwesi kichumba kya panani ni kun'goneka.
38 And as Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, having heard that Peter was there, sent to him two men with the entreaty, Do not delay to come to us.
Kwa vile Lida kyaajhele karibu ni Yafa na bhanafunzi bhap'eliki kwamba Petro ajhele okhu, bhabhalaghisi bhabehle kwa muene bhakan'sihi, “Hidayi kwa tete bila kuchelebhwa.”
39 Then Peter arose, and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber; and all the widows came to him weeping, and showing the coats and cloaks which Dorcas made while she was with them.
Petro akahema ni kubhoka pamonga ni bhene. bho afikiri, bhan'ndeitli mu kichumba kya panani. Ni bhajane bhoha bhajhemili karibu ni muene bhakajha bhilela, bhakajha bhakandasya likotili ni nghobho ambasyo Dorcas abhashonili wakati ajhe pamonga ni bhene.
40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down and prayed; and turning to the body he said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes; and seeing Peter, she sat up.
Petro akabhabhosya bhoha kwibhala ku kichumba, akapiga magoti akas'oka, kisha akabhugeukila mb'ele, akajobha, “Tabitha, jhumukayi”. Akafungula mihu gha muene na bho ambwene Petro akatama pasi.
41 And he gave her his hand, and raised her up; and calling the saints and the widows, he presented her alive.
Kisha Petro akampela kibhoko kya muene akanjinula, na bho abhakutili bhaamini ni bhajane, akabhakabidhi kwa bhene ajhe hai.
42 And it became known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord.
Lijambo e'lu lyamanyikene Yafa jhioha, ni bhanu bhingi bhakamwamini Bwana.
43 And it came to pass, that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon, a tanner.
Jhatokili Petro atamili magono mingi Yafa pamonga ni munu jhaakutibheghe Simoni, n'tengenesya ngozi.
