Acts 9
1 But Saul, yet breathing out threatening and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
Lakini Sauli, kayendelea longela vitishi hata kwa kiwo cha banapunzi ba Ngwana, atiyenda kwa kuhani nkolo
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.
na kunnaba barua kwa ajili ya Masinagogi kolyo Dameski, ili panga mana ampatike mundu ywabile katika ndela yelo, awe nnalome au nnwawa, abatabe na kubaleta Yerusalem.
3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus; and suddenly there shone around a him a light from heaven;
Paabile katika safari, ipangite kuwa paakaribie Dameski, gafla utimwangazia kotekote bweya boka kumaunde,'
4 and he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
ni ywembe atomboka pae na ayowine lilobe lambakiye, “Sauli, Sauli, mbona wanitesa nenga?”
5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And he answered, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
Sauli kayangwa, Wenga wa nyai Ngwana? Ngwana kabaya, “Nenga ni Yesu waniudhi.
6 But arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.
Lakini inuka, jingya mjini, wenga walowa bakilwa ya upalikwa kuyapanga.
7 And the men that journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing the voice, but seeing no one.
Balo bandu batisafiiri pamope na Sauli batami kimya, kabayowa lilobe ila bamweni kwaa mundu.
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 atiinuka katika nnema na paayongoli minyo gake, aweza kwaa bona kilebe, kabankamwa luboko bannetike Dameski.
9 And he was three days without sight, and neither ate nor drank.
Kwa masoba atatu abweni kwaa, alya kwaa wala anywa kwaa.
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.
Abile mwanapunzi Dameski lina lyake Anania, Ngwana alongela nae katika maono, “Anania.” No baya, “Linga, nibile pano, Ngwana.
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,
“Ngwana kammakiya, Inuka uyende zako katika mtaa waukemelwa Nyofu, na katika nyumba ya Yuda na ukannaluye mundu boka Tarso ywakemelwa Sauli; mana angali aloba:
12 and hath seen a man, named Ananias, coming in and putting his hand on him, that he might receive sight.
Na amweni katika maono mundu lina lyake Anania kajingya na kumbekya maboko nnani yake ila panga aweze kubona.
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 kanyangwa, “Ngwana, niyowine habari za mundu yoo kwa bandu banyansima, kwa kiasi gani abatendea mabaya batakatifu na kolyo Yerusalemu;
14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.
Pano abile na mamlaka boka kwa kuhani nkolo kuntaba kila yumo ywalikema lina lyako.
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 Ngwana kammakiya, “Uyende, mana ywembe ni chombo kiteule sango, alitole lina lyango nnongi ya Mataifa na apwalume na bana ba Israeli.
16 For I myself will show him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.
Maana nalowa kuwabonekeya yabile ganyansima yaapalikwa kuteswa kwa ajili ya lina lyango.”
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 kayenda, ajingii mu'nyumba; Kambekeya maboko kabaya, ndugu Sauli, Ngwana Yesu, ywakutokya katika ndela paubile waisa, anitumile upate kubona kae na utolilwe na 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 vyatomboka ilebe kati magamba, apatike kubona, ayemi, akabatizwa; kalyaa chakulya na kupata ngupu,
19 And having taken some food he was strengthened. And he was some days with the disciples in Damascus.
Atami pamope na banapunzi bake kolyo Dameski kwa masoba ganyansima.
20 And immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
Muda wowolo kantangaza Yesu katika masinagogi, kabaya panga ywembe ni Ngwana wa Nnongo.
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 bote bayowine batishangala no baya, “Abile mundu yolo kwaa ywaatibaharibu bote balikemile lina lee kolyo Yerusalemu? Na pano kaisa kwa kusudi lya kuwafunga na kuwapeleka 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 atiwezeshwa hubiri na kubapanga Bayahudi batami Dameski basanganyikilwe na kuthibitisha ya kuwa ayoo nga Kristo.
23 But after many days had passed, the Jews took counsel together to kill him;
Baada ya masoba ganansima, Bayahudi bapanga shauri pamope ili wamulage.
24 but their plot became known to Saul; and they were even watching the gates day and night to kill him.
Lakini mpango wabe utiyowanika na Sauli. Kabamvizia pannango mutwekati na kilo bapate kumulaga.
25 But his disciples took him by night, and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
Lakini banapunzi bake kabantola kilo na kunshusha pitya ukutani, kabanneta pae mu'kitondo.
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.
Na sauli paaikite Yerusalemu, atijaribu kujiunga na banapunzi lakini babile bakimwogopa, basadiki kwaa kuwa ywembe ni mwanapunzi.
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 kantola na kumpeleka kwa mitume, na aabakiye jinsi Sauli yaamweni Ngwana mu'ndela na Ngwana yaa alongela nakwe, na jinsi Sauli atihubiri kwa ujasiri kwa lina lya Yesu kolyo Dameski.
28 And he was with them going in and out at Jerusalem,
Atikwembana nabembe kabajingya na boka Yerusalemu, abaya kwa ujasiri kwa lina lya Ngwana 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.
Kabalongela na Ayahudi wa Kiyunani lakini batijaribu mara kwa mara kumulaga.
30 But the brethren obtaining knowledge of it, brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.
Muda palitangite likowe lee, kabantola mpaka Kaisaria, na batimpeleka ayende 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.
Bai likanisa lyote katika Uyahudi, Galilaya na Samaria, libile na amani, lichengwite, na tyanga katika hofu ya Ngwana na faraja ya Roho Mtakatifu, likanisa latikuwa na yongekeya idadi ya bandu.
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.
Boka po itokii Petro paabile kazunguka zunguka pande zote za mkoa, akabateremkia baumini batama katika mji wa Lida.
33 And there he found a certain man named AEneas, who had lain on a bed eight years, and was palsied.
Amweni kolyo mundu yumo lina lyake Ainea, mundu yolo abile pakindanda myaka nane; mana abile atipooza.
34 And Peter said to him, AEneas, Jesus the Christ healeth thee; arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.
Petro kammakiya, “Ainea, Yesu Kristo akuponye; amka ni uyitandikiye kindanda sako.” mara atiamka.
35 And all that dwelt in Lydda and Sharon saw him; and they turned to the Lord.
Na bandu bote batami Lida na Sharoni pabamweni mundu yolo, batimkerebukya Ngwana.
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.
Pabile na mwanapunzi Yafa akemelwa Tabitha, ambalo mana yake “Dorcas” Ayoo nnwawa atwelilwe kazi inoite na matendo ga rehema aipangite 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.
Yatipangika katika masoba ago abile ntamwe na awile, pabamsafisha, no kumpandisha chumba cha kunani na kumgonjekea.
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 namna Lida abile papipi na Yafa, banapunzi bayowine panga Petro abile kolyo, batibatuma bandu abele kwake, kabamsihi, “Uise kwitu bila kuchelewa.”
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 atiamka na kaboka pamope nabembe. Paaikite, bannetike katika chumba cha kunani. Na ajane bote bayemi papipi niywembe niywembe kabalela, bakinlolekeya koti na ngobo ambazo Dorcas atibashonea muda abile pamope nabo.
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 kabatoa bote panja ya nyumba, kapiga magoti na kuloba, boka po, atiukerebukya yega, “Tabitha, amka.” Ayongoli minyo gake na paamweni Petro atami pae.
41 And he gave her his hand, and raised her up; and calling the saints and the widows, he presented her alive.
Boka po ampeya luboko lwake na kumwinua, na paabakema baamini na bajane, atibakabidhi kwabe abile nkoto.
42 And it became known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord.
Likowe lee liyowanike Yafa yote, na bandu banyansima bamwaminiya Ngwana.
43 And it came to pass, that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon, a tanner.
Ipangite Petro atama masoba ganyansima Yafa pamope na mundu ywakemelwa Simoni, ywatengeneza ngozi.
