< Acts 18 >
1 After this, Paul departed from Athens and went to Corinth.
Jejile emisango ejo, Paulo asokele Athene nagenda Korintho.
2 There he found a Jew named Aquila, of Pontus by birth, who had recently come from Italy along with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had ordered all the Jews to leave Rome. Paul came to them,
Eyo namubhona omuyaudi oyo kabhilikilwa Akwila omunu wa likabila lwa Ponto, omwene no mugasi wae aliga nabhilikilwa Prisila Bhejile okusoka eyo Italia, KU nsoga Klaudia alagilie abhayaudi bhona bhasoke Roma; Paulo naja ewabho;
3 and because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and worked, for they were tentmakers by trade.
Paulo nalama no kukola emilimu jinu ejisusana ne jebhwe. Abhene bhaliga nibhakoja amaema.
4 Every Sabbath he reasoned in the synagogue and tried to persuade both Jews and Greeks.
Paulo naikana nabho mulikofyanyisho bhuli lunaku lwa isabato. abhakongishe abhayaudi amwi na abhagiriki.
5 When Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit and testified to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.
Mbe nawe Sila na Timotheo bhejile bhakaja okusoka makodonia, Paulo nasindikwa na Mwoyo okubabhambhalila abhayaudi ati Yesu niwe Kristo.
6 But when the Jews opposed him and reviled him, he shook out his garments and said to them, “Your blood be upon your own heads! I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”
omwanya gunu abhayaudi bhamubhumile no kumujimya, kwibyo Paulo nakukumula omwenda gwae imbhele yebhe, no kubhabhwila,” amanyiga gemwe na gabhwe ingulu ye mitwe jemwe abhene; anye ntana ntambala okwamba woli no kugendelela, naja ku bha maanga.
7 So he moved on from there and went to the house of a man named Justus, a worshiper of God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.
Kulwejo nasokao Aliya nagenda KU nyumbha ya Tito Yusto, omunu oyo kalamya Nyamuanga. inyumba yae ili ayei ne elikofyanyisho.
8 Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord together with his whole household. And many of the Corinthians, when they heard, believed and were baptized.
krispo, omtagasha we likofanyisho amwi na bhanu bha ika ewae ni bhamwikilisha Latabhugenyi. abhanu bhafu bha Korintho abho bhamguwe Paulo naika bhanu bhekilisishe no kubhatijibhwa.
9 One night the Lord said to Paul in a vision: “Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent.
Latabhugenyi nambhwila Paulo mgeta kujila ye bhwilolo”, Utobhaya, nawe nuwaike utajibhwila.
10 For I am with yoʋ, and no one will attack yoʋ to do yoʋ harm, for I have many people in this city.”
Anye nili amwi nawe, atalio oyo alakulegeja okukunyamla, insoga Nina bhanu bhafu mumusi gunu”.
11 So Paul stayed for a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
Paulo neyanja eyo kwo mwanya gwo mwaka gumwi na mesi mukaga neigisha omusango gwa Nyamuanga agati-gati yebhwe.
12 But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews rose up with one accord against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,
Mbe nawe Galio ejile akolwa okubha mtungi wa Akaya, abhayaudi bemeleguyu amwi mu bhutasikene na Paulo no kumsima imbele ye chitebhe Cha indamu,
13 saying, “This man is persuading people to worship God in a manner contrary to the law.”
nibhaika”, Omunu unu kabhakogya abhanu bhanu bhamulamye Nyamuanga bhitasikene ne bhilagilo”.
14 But just as Paul was about to open his mouth to speak, Gallio said to the Jews, “If it were a matter of some crime or evil misdeed, O Jews, I would bear with you, as is reasonable.
Omanya gunu Paulo aliga nenda okwika, Galio nabhabwila abhayaudi,” emwe bhayaudi, jakabhee jili mibhibhi amwi bhunyake, jakabhee je kisi kubha kolela.
15 But since it is a question about words, names, and your own law, see to it yourselves, for I do not want to be a judge of such things.”
Mbe nawe ku songa ya mabhusho, okulubhana amasango na amasina ne bhilagilo bhemwe Mbe mulamule emwe abhene. Anye nitakwenda kubha mulamusi we misango ejo.
16 So he drove them away from the judgment seat.
Galio nabhabwila msoke imbhele ye chitebhe Cha indamu,
17 Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and began beating him in front of the judgment seat. But none of these things were of any concern to Gallio.
Kwibhyo mbhamugwa Sosthene, omutangasha we likofyanyisho, mbhamubhuma imbhele ye chitebhe Cha indamu. Nawe Galio atasasilwe echo bhakolele.
18 After staying in Corinth for many more days, Paul took leave of the brothers and set sail for Syria, and Priscilla and Aquila were with him. (Now he had shaved his head in Cenchreae because he was under a vow.)
Paulo, ejile akenyanja Aliya kwo mwanya mulela, abhasigele abhasu no kugenda KU meli Siria amwi na Prisila na Akwila. Bhachali kusoka kwigobhelo, namwega jinfwili jae kulwo kubha aliga alaie na anechilailo.
19 When he arrived at Ephesus, he left Priscilla and Aquila there, but he himself went into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.
Bhejile bakinga Efeso, Paulo namusiga Prisila na Akwila alya, nawe mwenene nengila mu likofyanyisho no kwaikana na abhayaudi.
20 When they asked him to stay with them for a longer period of time, he declined.
Bhejile bhakamubhila Paulo enyaje nabho kwo mwanya mulele, omwene alemele.
21 However, as he took leave of them, he said, “I must by all means keep the coming feast in Jerusalem, but I will return to you again, God willing.” Then he set sail from Ephesus.
Mbe nawe nasokao kubhene, nabhabwila,” enisubha lindi kwemwe, kukabha kuli kwenda kwa Nyamuwanga.” okumala ao nagenda na imeli nasoka Efeso.
22 When he arrived at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the church, and then went down to Antioch.
Paulo ejile agobha Kaisaria, alinyile okugenda okukesha Likanisa lya Yerusalemu, okumala natebhela emwalo kwi kanisa lya Antiokia.
23 After spending some time there, he departed and went from place to place throughout the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.
Ejile enyanjao kwo mwanya, Paulo asokeleo alabhile mu mabhala ga Galatia na Frigia no kubhakomesha omwoyo abheigisibwa bhae.
24 Meanwhile a Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, arrived in Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, well-versed in the Scriptures.
Omuyaudi umwi unu aliga nabhilikilwa Apollo, oyo ebhuliywe eyo Alexandria, ejileEfeso. Aliga Ali no bhumenyi mu kwaika no bhengeso mu maandiko.
25 He had been instructed in the way of the Lord. Being fervent in spirit, he spoke and accurately taught the facts about the Lord, though he knew only about the baptism of John.
Apollo aliga elesibhwe mu mumeigisho ga Latabugenyi. lwa kutyo aliga Ali na managa mu mutima, aikile no kwiigisha kisi-kisi KU misango jinu ejilubhana naYesu, nawe amenyele-la obhubhatijo bha Yohana.
26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue, but when Aquila and Priscilla heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God in greater detail.
Apollo nambha okwaika kwo obhuyali mu Yekalu. nawe Prisila na Akwila bhejile bhamungwa, mbhakola obhusani nage na mbhamwelesha ingulu ya jinjila ja Nyamuwanga kwo bhekisi.
27 And when Apollos wanted to cross over to Achaia, the brothers wrote to the disciples, encouraging them to receive him. When he arrived, he was a great help to those who had become believers through grace,
Mbe ejile enda okusoka okuja Akaya, abhaili bhamuteyemo omwoyo no kubhandikila inyalubha abheigisibhwa bhanu bhali Akaya koleleki bhamulamile. Ejile akinga, KUlwe chigongo abhasakie muno bhalya bhanu bhekilisishe.
28 for he powerfully refuted the Jews in public, showing by the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.
Kulwa managa ga no bhumenyi, Apollo abhakilile abhayaudi abhwelu nelesha okulabha mu maandiko ati Yesu niwe Kristo.
