Acts 1
1 The former narrative I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus both did and taught from the beginning
Eshitabu shila eshikulu nasimbile, Theofilo, nahayanjile zyonti zyahandile uYesu abhombe na manyizye,
2 until the day in which, after he had through the Holy Spirit given commandments to the apostles whom he had chosen, he was taken up;
mpaka isiku uYesu lyahejelewe humwanya. Eli lyabhombeshe uYesu nawafumya eamri ashilile hwa Umpepo Ufinjile hwa atumwe bhakwe bhabhasaluye.
3 to whom also he showed himself living, after he had suffered, by many sure proofs, appearing to them during forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.
Baada ye mayemba agateswe, abhoneshe ali mwomi ne mbonesyo nyingi zyazyabhoneshe. Hunsiku amalongo gane ahwibhonesezye hwa bhantu bhakwe nayanje ezyeumwe zya Ngulubhi.
4 And while in assembly with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for what had been promised by the Father, which [[said he]] ye heard from me;
Na patangene nabho abhalajizizye aje bhasahasogole mu Yelusalemu, lelo bhagule edagano zyayanjile, “Zyamwahumvwaga neyanga afume huline
5 for John indeed baptized with water, but ye will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days hence.
aje uYohana abhozya naminzi lelo ane embabhozye nu Mpepo Ufinjile nkazyashila ensiku zishe.”
6 They therefore, having come together, asked him, saying, Lord, art thou at this time about to restore the kingdom to Israel?
Nabhakhomene pandwimo bhahabhuzya, “Aje eshi jibha lwubhabhagomoshezye oumwene a Izraeli?”
7 But he said to them, It belongeth not to you to know times or seasons, which the Father appointed by his own authority.
Umwene ahaga se shinza hulimwe amanye ezyahwibhesheye umwene Ungulubhi.”
8 But ye will receive power when the Holy Spirit hath come upon you; and ye will be my witnesses, both in Jerusalem and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and to the end of the earth.
Lelo mubhaposhe ikhone nawinza hulimwe Umpepo Ufinjile, namwe mwaibha bhaketi bhane, mu Yelusalemu, mu Uyahudi mu Samaria, na humalishilo uwensi.”
9 And having thus spoken, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
Nawayanga ezyo uYesu wabhuha wanyamulwa humwanya nabhamwenya, ibhengo lyakwinshila watega sebhalola na maso gabho.
10 And while they were looking earnestly into heaven as he went up, lo! two men stood by them in white apparel,
Nulwabhahwenya humwanya kwa makini akienda, ghafula, abhantu bhabhili bhemelela pahati yabho bhakwite amenda amazelu.
11 who said, Men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This Jesus, who hath been taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same manner in which ye beheld him going into heaven.
Bhaga, “Mwe bhantu bha hu Galilaya, yenu mwimeleye epa?” Muhwenya abhala humwanya? Unu uYesu yamuhulola abhala humwanya ahwenza shesho sha muhulola abhala.
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem, from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, within a sabbath-day's journey.
Nabhanvwa isho bhaela afume hwigamba lye mizeituni, abhale hu Yerusalemu humwendo wa Sabato.
13 And when they had come in, they went up into the upper room where they were making their abode, namely, Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the zealot, and Judas the brother of James.
Nabhafiha bhahabhala hwigulu amatawa gabho bhabhebha. Petro, Yohana, Yakobo, Andrea, Filipo, Thomaso, Batholomayo, Mathayo, Yakobo Omwana wa Alfayo, Simoni Zelote nu Yuda Umwana wa Yakobo.
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer, with women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.
Bonti ebho bhabhungene neshi umuntu umo, bhahendelela ne mputo. Bhali na abhashe, uMariamu unyina wa Yesu, nailumbu bhakwe.
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the brethren, and said, (the number of the names together was about one hundred and twenty, )
Ensiku zila uPetro ahimilie pahati pa holo bhala bhahali abhantu 120, ahaga,
16 Brethren, it was necessary that this scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit through the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus.
Mwe bhantu ehali huje enongwa zya Ngulubhi zitimile, zyayanjile Umpepo Ufinjile hwilomu lya Daudi zyazyayanjile uYuda, yabhalongole bhaala bhabhakete uYesu.
17 For he was numbered among us, and obtained the allotment of this ministry.
Umwene ali pamo nate aposhile ifungu lyakwe elye faida humbombo ene.”
18 Now this man purchased a field with the wages of the iniquity; and falling headlong he burst asunder in the middle, and all his bowels gushed out.
(Neshi umuntu unu akalile ugunda huhela ila eye mbibhi zyakwe nepo ahagwiye abazuhu ivyanda na maula gahafuma na hwitishe.
19 And it became known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that that field is called in their own tongue, Aceldamach, that is, Field of Blood.
Bhonti bhabhakhalaga hu Yerusalemu bhuhumvwizye na ieneo elyo hahalyeta itawa hunjango yabho “Akeldama” ugwo “gunda gwi danda.”)
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, “Let his habitation be made desolate, and let no one dwell therein;” and, “Let another take his office.”
“Mushitabu eshe Zaburi shijile, 'Ambe ugunda gwakwe gubhe lisami asahakhale umuntu nkumo;' tikunde, 'Umuntu uwinje ayeje enafasi yakwe eyelongozi.'
21 Of these men, therefore, who accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Elyo lye muhimu aje ulume umoyajendaga pandwimo nate lula uYesu nalihulite nahinjilaga nafume,
22 from the baptism of John until the day when he was taken up from us, must one be made a witness with us of his resurrection.
ahwande lila uYohana na hozyaga abhantu mpaka isiku lila uYesu nahabhushile abhale humwanya, lazima abhe keti we luzyuho pandwimo nate.
23 And they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
“Bhabhala hwitagalila alume bhabhili, uYusufu yahetelwe Barnaba, itawa elya mwabho ali yu Yusto, nu Mathiya.
24 And they prayed saying, Thou, Lord, who knowest the hearts of all men, show which of these two thou hast chosen
Abene bhalabha bhaga, “Awe, Ngolobhe umenye amoyo gabhantu bhonti tilaaba abhantu yusaluye
25 to take the part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell away, that he might go to his own place.
ahweje enafasi ya Yuda yabhombile embibhi nasogole hulite.”
26 And they cast lots for them; and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Bhakhoma ekula ekula yagwila uMathiya yabhehwelwe pandwemo na bhaala atumwe ilongo nu weka.
