Acts 21
1 After then it happened sailing our having drawn away from them, having run directly we came to Cos, and the next [day] to Rhodes, and from there and from there to Patara.
Zvino zvakaitika kuti tichibva nechikepe taparadzana navo, takafamba nenzira yakarurama tikasvika muKose, neraitevera muRodhe, tikabvapo tikasvika Patara;
2 And having found a boat passing over into Phoenicia having gone on board we set sail.
ndokuti tawana chikepe chaiyambukira kuFonisiya, takapinda tikaenda nechikepe.
3 (Having sighted *NK(o)*) then Cyprus and having left it on the left we were sailing to Syria and (we disembarked *N(k)O*) at Tyre; There for the ship was unloading the cargo.
Takati tabudikira Saipuresi, ndokuisiya kuruoko rweruboshwe, tikaenda kuSiriya nechikepe, tikamhara paTire; nokuti chikepe chaifanira kututunura mutoro ipapo;
4 (and *k*) Having sought out (then *no*) the disciples we remained there days seven, who to Paul were telling through the Spirit not (to go up *N(k)O*) to Jerusalem.
zvino takati tawana vadzidzi, tikagarapo mazuva manomwe; ivo vakati neMweya kuna Pauro, arege kukwira kuJerusarema.
5 When then it happened that we [were] completing the days, having set out we were journeying while are accompanying us everyone with wives and children as far as outside the city, And having bowed the knees on the shore (having prayed *N(k)O*)
Zvino zvakaitika kuti takapedza mazuva, tikabva tikaenda, vese vakatiperekedza nevakadzi nevana kusvikira kunze kweguta; zvino takafugama nemabvi pamahombekombe tikanyengetera.
6 (we greeted *N(k)O*) one another and (we went up *N(k)(o)*) into the boat, they then returned to [their] own.
Zvino tawonekana, takapinda muchikepe, asi ivo vakadzokera kwavo.
7 We ourselves then the voyage having completed from Tyre came down to Ptolemais, and having greeted the brothers we stayed day one with them.
Asi isu takati tapedza rwendo nechikepe kubva kuTire, takasvika kuPitoremai, tikakwazisa hama tikagara navo zuva rimwe.
8 On the now next day having gone forth (those with Paul *K*) (we came *NK(O)*) to Caesarea, and having entered into the house of Philip the evangelist (who *k*) is being of the seven we stayed with him.
Chifume isu taiva naPauro takabva tikasvika kuKesariya; ndokupinda mumba maFiripi muevhangeri, waiva umwe wevanomwe, tikagara naye.
9 With this [man] now there were daughters four virgins prophesying.
Uyuwo wakange ane vakunda vana, mhandara dzaiporofita.
10 Remaining now (of us *K*) days many came down a certain one from Judea a prophet named Agabus,
Zvino takati tagara mazuva mazhinji, kwakaburuka kubva kuJudhiya umwe muporofita wainzi Agabhusi,
11 and having come to us and having taken the belt of Paul, having bound (both *k*) (of himself *N(k)O*) the feet and the hands he said; Thus says the Spirit Holy; The man of whom is belt this, in this way will bind in Jerusalem the Jews and will deliver [him] into [the] hands of [the] Gentiles.
ndokusvika kwatiri, akatora bhanhire raPauro, akazvisunga maoko nemakumbo ake, akati: Mweya Mutsvene anoreva izvi: Murume bhanhire iri riri rake, VaJudha paJerusarema vachamusunga saizvozvi, nekumukumikidza mumaoko evahedheni.
12 When then we had heard these things, were begging we ourselves both and those of that place not to go up him to Jerusalem.
Zvino takati tanzwa zvinhu izvi tese isu nevenzvimbo iyo tikakumbirisa kuti arege kukwira kuJerusarema.
13 (Then *N(k)O*) answered Paul; What are you doing weeping and breaking my heart? I myself for not only to be bound but also to die at Jerusalem readiness have for the name of the Lord Jesus.
Asi Pauro wakapindura akati: Munoitei muchichema nekuputsa moyo wangu? Nokuti ini ndakagadzirira, kwete kusungwa chete, asi nekufa paJerusarema nekuda kwezita raIshe Jesu.
14 Not is being persuaded then he we were silent having said; Of the Lord the will (should be [done]. *N(k)O*)
Zvino wakati asingapwiswi, takanyarara tikati: Chido chaIshe ngachiitwe.
15 After now days these having packed the baggage we were ascending to Jerusalem.
Zvino shure kwemazuva iwayo takarongedza, tikakwira kuJerusarema.
16 Went then also [some] of the disciples from Caesarea with us, bringing [one] with whom we may lodge, Mnason a certain Cypriot, an early disciple.
Nevamwewo vevadzidzi veKesariya vakaenda nesu, vakauya neumwe Minasoni weSaipuresi, mudzidzi wekare, watainogara naye.
17 Having arrived now we at Jerusalem gladly (received *N(k)O*) us the brothers.
Zvino takati tichisvika kuJerusarema, hama dzakatigamuchira nemufaro.
18 On the now following [day] was going in Paul with us unto James, all and arrived the elders.
Chifume Pauro wakapinda nesu kuna Jakobho, nevakuru vese vakange varipo.
19 And having greeted them he was relating by one each of the things did God among the Gentiles through the ministry of him.
Zvino wakati avakwazisa, wakarondedzera chimwe nechimwe chezvinhu Mwari chaakaita pakati pevahedheni neshumiro yake.
20 Those then having heard were glorifying (God, *N(K)O*) (They said *NK(o)*) then to him; You see brother, how many myriads there are (among the *NO*) (Jews *N(k)O*) who having believed and all zealous ones for the law are.
Ivo vakati vachizvinzwa, vakakudza Ishe; vakati kwaari: Unoona, hama, kuti zvuru zvingani zveVaJudha vanotenda; uye vese vanoshingairira murairo;
21 They have been informed now about you that apostasy you teach from Moses those among the Gentiles all Jews telling not to circumcise them the children nor in the customs to walk.
zvino vakaudzwa nezvako, kuti unodzidzisa VaJudha vese vari pakati pevahedheni kuti vasiye Mozisi, uchiti varege kudzingisa vana, kana kufamba netsika.
22 What then is it? Certainly (should multitude to assemble *K*) they will hear (for *k*) that you have come.
Ko zvino chii? Zvirokwazvo zvakafanira kuti chaunga chiungane; nokuti vachanzwa kuti wasvika.
23 This therefore do you what to you we say; There are with us men four a vow having (on *NK(o)*) themselves;
Naizvozvo ita izvi zvatinoreva kwauri; tine varume vana vane mhiko pamusoro pavo;
24 These [men] having taken do be purified with them and do bear expense for them so that (they will shave *N(k)O*) the head, and (will know *N(k)O*) all that of which they have been informed about you no [thing] is, but you walk orderly also yourself keeping the law.
vatore pamwe newe, uzvichenure pamwe navo, uye uripe muripo wavo, kuti vaveure musoro, kuti vese vazive kuti zvavakaudzwa maererano newe hapana zviripo, asi iwewo pachako unofamba zvakarurama uchichengeta murairo.
25 Concerning now those having believed of the Gentiles we ourselves (wrote to *NK(O)*) having adjudged (nothing such to keep them only except *K*) to keep from them the both idol-sacrifices and (*k*) blood and what is strangled and sexual immorality.
Asi maererano nevahedheni vanotenda isu tanyora, tikatema kuti vasachengeta chinhu chakadai, kunze kwekuti vazvidzore pane zvakabairwa zvifananidzo, neropa nezvakadzipwa neupombwe.
26 Then Paul having taken the men on the following day with them having been purified was entering into the temple declaring the fulfillment of the days of the purification until that was offered for one each of them the sacrifice.
Ipapo Pauro wakatora varume avo, zuva raitevera akazvichenura pamwe navo, akapinda mutembere kupira kupera kwemazuva ekunatswa, kusvikira kwabairwa chibairo cheumwe neumwe wavo.
27 When now were about the seven days to be completed, the from Asia Jews having seen him in the temple were stirring up all the crowd and laid upon him hands
Zvino mazuva manomwe akati opera, VaJudha vaibva kuAsia pavakamuona mutembere, vakamutsa chaunga chese, ndokuisa maoko kwaari.
28 crying out; Men Israelites, do help. This is the man who against the people and the law and place this all those (everywhere *N(k)O*) teaching, besides and also Greeks he has brought into the temple and has defiled holy place this.
Vakadanidzira, vachiti: Varume VaIsraeri, batsirai! Uyu ndiye munhu anodzidzisa vese kwese-kwese zvinopesana nevanhu, nemurairo, nenzvimbo ino; pamusoro pazvo anouisa VaGirikiwo mutembere, ndokusvibisa nzvimbo ino tsvene.
29 It was they for (having foreseen *NK(o)*) Trophimus the Ephesian in the city with him, whom they were supposing that into the temple had brought Paul.
Nokuti vakange vamboona Trofimo muEfeso anaye muguta, wavaifunga kuti Pauro wamupinza mutembere.
30 Was thrown into commotion also the city whole and there was a rushing together of the people, And having laid hold of Paul they were dragging him outside the temple; and immediately were shut the doors.
Neguta rese rakanyonganiswa; vanhu vakamhanyira pamwe; vakabata Pauro, vakamukwevera kunze kwetembere; mikova ikazarirwa pakarepo.
31 Of them seeking (then *N(k)O*) him to kill there came a report to the commander of the cohort that all (are in an uproar *N(k)O*) Jerusalem;
Zvino vakati vachitsvaka kumuuraya, shoko rikakwira kumukuru wechuru wehondo, kuti Jerusarema rese ranyonganiswa.
32 who at once having taken with [him] soldiers and centurions ran down upon them. And having seen the commander and the soldiers they stopped beating Paul.
Iye pakarepo akatora mauto nevakuru vezana, akaburuka achimhanyira kwavari; ivo vakati vachiona mukuru wechuru chemazana nemauto, vakarega kurova Pauro.
33 (Then *NK(o)*) having drawn near the commander laid hold of him and he commanded [him] to be bound with chains two and he was inquiring who (maybe *k*) he would be and what it is he having done.
Zvino mukuru wechuru chemazana wakaswedera, akamubata, ndokuraira kuti asungwe nemaketani maviri, akabvunza kuti waiva ani, uye kuti waitei.
34 Others however another [or] one thing (were crying out *N(k)O*) in the crowd. Not (is being able *N(k)O*) now (he *no*) to know the facts on account of the uproar he ordered to be brought him into the barracks.
Zvino vamwe pakati pevazhinji vakadanidzira chimwe vamwe chimwewo; zvino asingagoni kuziva chokwadi nekuda kwenyonga-nyonga, wakaraira kuti aiswe kuimba yemauto.
35 When now he came to the stairs, it happened that being carried he by the soldiers because of the violence of the crowd;
Zvino wakati asvika pamitanho, zvakaitika kuti atakurwe nemauto nekuda kwemhirizhonga yechaunga;
36 Were following for the multitude of the people (crying out; *N(k)O*) Away with him.
nokuti chaunga chevanhu chakatevera chichidanidzira chichiti: Mubvise!
37 Being about then to be brought into the barracks Paul says to the commander; If is it permitted to me to say something to you? Then he was saying; Greek do you know?
Pauro wakati oda kupinzwa muimba yemauto akati kumukuru wechuru: Zvinotenderwa here kuti nditaure chinhu kwauri? Iye ndokuti: Unoziva chiGiriki here?
38 Surely then you yourself are the Egyptian before these the days having led a revolt and having led out into the wilderness the four thousand men of the Assassins?
Ko iwe hausi uya muEgipita wakamutsa bongozozo mazuva ano asati asvika here, akatungamirira kurenje zvuru zvina zvevarume vaiva mhondi?
39 Said however Paul; I myself a man indeed am a Jew of Tarsus of Cilicia not [of an] insignificant city a citizen, I implore however you; do allow me to speak to the people.
Asi Pauro wakati: Ini ndiri munhu muJudha, weTaso yeKirikia, mugari weguta risina kureruka. Zvino ndinokukumbirai, nditenderei kutaura kuvanhu.
40 When was permitting then he Paul having stood on the stairs made a sign with the hand to the people, great then silence having taken place (he addressed [them] *NK(o)*) in the Hebrew language saying:
Zvino wakati amutendera, Pauro wakamira pamitanho akaninira kuvanhu neruoko; zvino kwakati kwanyarara kwazvo, akataura kwavari nerurimi rwechiHebheru achiti:
