Acts 16

1 And he came even unto Derbe, and unto Lystra; and lo! a certain disciple, was there, by name Timothy, son of a believing Jewish woman, but whose father was a Greek, —

uPaulo nai wakapembya ga nu ku Derbe nu ku Listra; hangi goza, pang'wanso ai ukoli nu mumanyisigwa nuitangwa Timotheo, ingi muhumba nai utugilwe nu nyinya nua kiyahudi naiza ingi mu huiili nu tata nuakwe ingi Mugriki.

2 who was well-attested by the brethren in Lystra, and Iconium.

Antu aku Listra ni Ikonia ai amukuiie iziza.

3 The same, would Paul have go forth with him, and took and circumcised him, on account of the Jews who were in those places; for they one and all knew that, his father, was, a Greek.

uPaulo ai umuloilwe akuile iti muhinzo nu ng'wenso, uugwa akamuhola ku mutwala i kidamu ku nsoko a Ayahudi nai akoli uko kuiti ihi ai amulingile kina u tata nuakwe ingi Mugriki

4 And, as they passed through the cities, they were delivering unto them, for observance, the decrees which had been decided upon by the Apostles and Elders who were in Jerusalem.

Nai akatula alongoe ai akiile mu isali nu kupumya i malago ku matekeelo iti kina i malago nanso ai akilisigwe ni itumi ni anyampala uko ku Yerusalemu.

5 The assemblies, therefore, were being confirmed in the faith, and increasing in number, every day.

Iti gwa i matekeelo aka komisigwa ku u huiili nao nai ahuiie akongeeleka ku ngele kila luhuku.

6 And they passed through the Phrygian and Galatian country, being forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia;

uPaulo ni auya akalongola ku Filigia ni Galilaya, kuiti u Ng'wau Ng'welu nuang'wa Itunda ai uagiiye kutanantya u lukani uko kijimbo nila Asia.

7 but, coming along Mysia, they were attempting to journey into Bithynia, —and, the Spirit of Jesus, suffered them not;

Nai akahumbeela ku Misia, ai agemile kulongola ku Bithinia, kuiti u Ng'wau Ng'welu nuang'wa Yesu aka agilya.

8 but, passing by Mysia, they came down unto Troas.

Ku lulo akakila i Misia akapembya kupikiila kisali nika Troa.

9 And, a vision, by night, unto Paul appeared: —A man of Macedonia, there was, standing and beseeching him, and saying—Come over into Macedonia, and bring us succour!

Muloto ai umupumie uPaulo utiku, ai ukoli muntu nua ku Makedonia wimikile, ukimitanga nu kuligitya “Pembyi mukuaiilye kunu ku Makedonia.”

10 Now, when, the vision, he had seen, straightway, we sought to go forth unto Macedonia, concluding that God, had summoned us to tell the glad tidings unto them.

uPaulo nai wakihenga u muloto, itungo ki kizepiilya kulongola ku Makedonia, aze ulingile kina Itunda ai ukitangile kulongola ku atanantilya inkani ninza.

11 Setting sail, therefore, from Troas, we ran straight into Samothracia, and, on the morrow, unto New City,

Iti gwa kikahega kupuma ku Troa, kikalongola kukilinkania ku Samothrake, nu luhiku nai lutyatiie kikapika kisali nika Neapoli.

12 and, from thence, unto Philippi, —which, indeed, is the first city of the part of Macedonia—a colony. And we were, in this city, spending certain days;

Kupuma papo kikalongola ku Filipi naza ingi king'wi a kisali nika Makedonia, kisali nikangulu mu wilaya nu uhumi nua Kirumi hangi ki kikie mahiku kituunga.

13 and on the day of rest, we went forth outside the gate, beside a river, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, —and, sitting down, we went on to speak unto the women who had come together.

Luhiku nula kusupya, aikulongoe kunzi a mumpita ku nzila a mongo, nkinka naiza kusigiie yikatula ni kianza nika kitumila i malompi. Ki kikie pihi nu kuligitya ni ana kisungu nai apembilye palung'wi.

14 And, a certain woman, by name Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, devout towards God, was hearkening, whose heart, the Lord, fully opened, to be giving heed unto the things being spoken by Paul.

Musungu ung'wi nuitangwaa Lidia, mugulya nzambarau, kupuma mu kisali nika Tiatira, munya kumikumbikila Itunda, ai ukutegeeye, Mukulu ai umulugue i nkolo akwe nu kuikila ukendegeeli i makani nai atambuwe nu Paulo.

15 And, when she was immersed, and her house, she besought [us], saying—If ye have judged me to be a believer in the Lord, come into my house, and abide [there]. And she constrained us.

Ze yakilaa kogigwa, ng'wenso ni ito nilakwe lihi, ai ukusingilye wazeligitya “anga ize manihenga kina unene ingi ni muhuiili mu Mukulu, uugwa kumusinja mingile nu kikie kitalane.” Akakusinja nangulu.

16 And it came to pass, as we were on our way unto the place of prayer, a certain damsel, having a spirit of Python, met us, —who, indeed, much gain, was presenting unto her masters, by divining.

Ikatula kina, nai katula kulongoe kianza nika kulompa, munanso ung'wi nai watulaa nu hing'wi nua ulingi akatankana nu sese. ai wimuletela u mukulu nuakwe nsailo idu na kulota.

17 The same, following after Paul and us, kept crying aloud, saying—These men, are servants of the Most High God, —who, indeed, are declaring unto you a way of salvation.

Umusungu uyu ai umutyatile uPaulo palung'wi nu sese, akakua iyogo nu kuligitya, “Awa i agoha ingi anyamilimo ang'wa Itunda niiza Mukulu, niakumutanantilya unyenye i nkani nia ugunwa.”

18 And, this, she continued to do for many days. But Paul, worn out, and turning unto the spirit, said—I charge thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come out from her. And it came out the same hour.

Ai witumile iti ku mahiku idu, kuiti uPaulo waze watakigwa ni ntendo nanso, ai upilukile kinyuma nu kumutambuila u hung'wi, “Ku ulagiilya ku lina nilang'a Yesu umupume mukati akwe.” Nu ng'wenso nkua ing'wi wakapuma nu kumuleka.

19 And, her masters, seeing that their hope of gain had gone out, laying hold on Paul and Silas, dragged them into the market-place, unto the rulers;

Akulu akwe nai akihenga nia kina isigo nila nsailo niao lahega, ai a ambile uPaulo nu Sila nu kuakweha misoko ntongeela a anya uhumi.

20 and, leading them forward unto the magistrates, said—These men, are exceedingly troubling our city, they, being Jews,

Nai aka apisha ku a lamuli, ai aligitilye, “Awa agoha ingi Ayahudi hangi akusasha minyomo ukulu mu kisali kitu.

21 And are declaring customs, which it is not allowable for us either to accept or to observe, being Romans.

Akumanyisa makani naiza shanga ilagiilyo usese kumasingiilya ang'wi kumatyata anga Arumi.

22 And the multitude rose up together against them, and, the magistrates, rending off them their mantles, were giving orders to beat them with rods;

Iumbi lika anyansukila nsuta uPaulo nu Sila nu kuatugula nu kulagiilya anyukwe iboko.

23 and, laying upon them many stripes, they thrust them into prison, charging the prison-keeper, safely, to be keeping them:

Ze ya kilaa kunyukwa iboko idu, mu kadulumu nu kumulagiilya u asikali nua kadulumu kuansunja ikende.

24 who, a charge like this receiving, thrust them into the inner prison, and, their feet, made he fast in the stocks.

Ze yakilaa kusingiilya ilagiilyo nilanso, uasikali nua kadulumu ai uagumie mu shumba nika mukati a kadulumu nu kuatunga i migulu ao mu nkika nai uaikile.

25 And, at midnight, Paul and Silas, being at prayer, began singing praise unto God; and the prisoners unto them, did hearken.

Itungo nila utiku wigingu, uPaulo nu Sila akatula akulompa nu kimba mimbo akumukulya Itunda, kunu ia tungwa auya aze a ategeeye,

26 And, suddenly, a great earthquake took place, —so that the foundations of the prison were shaken, and all the doors were [instantly] set open, and the bonds of all were unfastened.

Kupumpugiilya, ikapumila itetemeko ikulu nu musingi nua kadulumu ukahingisigwa, i milango a kadulumu ikaluguka, ni minyororo a atungwa ihi ikatoligwa.

27 And, the prison-keeper, being wakened and seeing that the doors of the prison had been opened, drawing his sword, was about to kill himself, supposing the prisoners to have fled.

uMusunja nua kadulumu ai u ukile kupuma mu tulo nu kihenga i milango a kadulumu iluguwe; itigwa wakahola i mpanga nuakwe ndogoelyo ai walowa kibulaga ku nsoko ai usigile i atungwa ihi akondya kutigana.

28 But Paul called out with a loud voice, saying—By no means, do thyself harm, for we are, one and all, here.

Kuiti, uPaulo wakazogolya ku luli lukulu, wazeligitya, “leka kilemaalya ku nsoko kihi kukoli i kianza apa.”

29 And, asking for a light, he sprang in, and becoming, agitated, fell down unto Paul and Silas,

uMusunja nua kadulumu ai ulompile i ntala iletwe hangi wakingila mukati a kadulumu ku ukau, wazekagata nu kitumba, waka agwila uPaulo nu Sila,

30 and, leading them forth outside, said—Sirs! what must I be doing, that I may be saved?

nu kuapumya kunzi a kadulumu nu kuligitya, “Akulu, nitume ntuni ndije ku gunika?”

31 And, they, said—Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, thou, and thy house.

Ni enso akamutambuila, “Mu huiile uMukulu uYesu nu ewe ukugunika palung'wi ni ito nilako.”

32 And they spake unto him the word of God, with all who were in his house.

Ai ituntile u lukani nula Mukulu kitalakwe, palung'wi ni antu ihi nia mi ito nilakwe.

33 And, taking them with him, in that hour of the night, he bathed them from their stripes, and was immersed, he, and his, one and all, on the spot;

uMusunja nua kadulumu ai uahoile utiku wuwo nu kuoja nkika nai alemaae, nuanso palung'wi ni antu nia mi ito nilakwe itungo akogigwa.

34 and, leading them up into his house, he set near a table, —and exulted, having, with all his house, believed in God.

Waka aleta uPaulo nu Sila mi ito nilakwe nu kuatengela indya. Nu ng'wenso akatula nu ulowa ukulu palung'wi ni antu a mi ito nilakwe ku nsoko ai amuhuiila Itunda.

35 And. when day came. the magistrates sent off the constables saying—Let those men go!

Nai ikatula mung'wi, alamuli ai alagiiye lukani ku uyo u musunja nua kadulumu azeligitya, “Wa alekele i antu awo alongole.”

36 And the prison-keeper reported the words unto Paul—The magistrates have sent, that ye be let go. Now, therefore, going forth, be taking your journey in peace.

uMusunja nua kadulumu akamupindula uPaulo migulya nkani nianso nia kina, “iAlamuli ai alagiiye lukani ndekele muhege; iti gwa pumi kunzi hangi mulongole ku u lyuuku.”

37 But, Paul, said unto them—Beating us, in public, uncondemned, men that are Romans, they thrust us into prison; —and, now, by stealth, are they thrusting us forth? Nay, verily! but let them come, themselves, and lead us out!

Kuiti uPaulo waka aila, “Ai akukuile pi galagalo, antu naza ingi Arumi shanga aku ulamula hangi ai alamue ku ugumila mu kadulumu; halafu itungili aloilwe ku upumya ku kinkunku? Ishi, shanga ikuhumika, Enso akola aze ku upumya nkika apa.”

38 And the constables reported unto the magistrates these words; and they were struck with fear, when they heard that they were, Romans;

iAsunja aka apindula i alamuli migulya a makani nanso, i alamuli akitumba nangaluu pang'wanso nai akalinga kina uPaulo nu Sila ingi Arumi.

39 and came, and besought them, and, leading them out, went on to request them to depart from the city.

iAlamuli akapembya nu kuasinja apume, hangi nai aka apumya kunzi a kadulumu, ai a alompile uPaulo nu Sila apume kunzi a kisali ni kao.

40 And so, coming forth from the prison, they went unto Lydia, and, seeing the brethren, they comforted them, and went forth.

Ku lulo uPaulo nu Sila akapuma kunzi a kadulumu akapembya mi ito nilang'wa Lidia. uPaulo nu Sila nai akaihenga i anya ndugu, ai akinyie inkolo hangi uugwa kuhega mu kisali ni kanso.
