Acts 2
1 On the day when [the Jews were celebrating the] Pentecost [festival], the [believers] were all together in one place [in Jerusalem].
Yekifikile ikighono kya Pentekoste, vanilla valyakong'anile papamo.
2 Suddenly [they heard] a noise [coming] from the sky [that sounded] like a strong wind. Everyone in the entire house where they were sitting heard the noise.
Nakaliingi lukahumila ulugulumo kuhuma kukyanya here luujilo lwa mepo lukamema munyumba Joni jino valikalile.
3 Then they saw [what looked] like flames of fire. These flames separated [from one another], and [one of them] came down on [the head of] each of the believers.
Sikavahumila imiili, sikalekeng'ana here ndapi said mwoto Kira munhu sikale pakyanya pamutu ghwa mwene.
4 Then all of the believers were (completely controlled/empowered) by the Holy Spirit {the Holy Spirit (completely controlled/empowered) all of the believers}, and he enabled them to begin speaking other languages [MTY] [that they had not learned].
Avenu voni vakamemesevua uMhepo mwimike pevakatengula kujova injovelo isinge, ndavele uMhepo akavatangile kujova.
5 At that time [many] Jews were staying in Jerusalem [to celebrate the Pentecost festival. They were people who] always tried to obey [the Jewish] laws. [They had come] from many different [HYP] countries.
Unsiki ghulaghula pevalyiale avayahudi vano vakikalagha muYerusalemu, vakamulumbagha uNguluve, kuhuma mu iise soni sino silipasi pavulanga.
6 When they heard that [loud] noise [like a wind], a crowd came together [to the place where the believers were]. The crowd (was amazed/did not know what to think), because each of them was hearing [one of] the believers speaking in that person’s own language.
Inguluumo is yesipulikike, ikipugha kya vanhu kikaghona palikimo vakava nhu vwoghofi ulwakuva Kira much akapulike panovijova ninjovele Ja mwene jujuo.
7 They were completely amazed, and they said [to each other], “All these men who are speaking have [RHQ] [always] resided in Galilee [district, so they would not know our languages].
Vakaghasuka napideghanapidegha Avenue vakajova, “kyang'ani, available voni vanoviju kwekuti navaGalilaya?
8 ([We(inc) do not understand] how these men can speak our own native languages!/How can these men speak our own native languages?) [RHQ] [But] all of us hear them [doing that]
Lwakuva kiiki tukuvapulika, usue tweni munjovele situ sino tukaholilue na sope?
9 [Some of us are from the regions of] Parthia and Media and Elam, and [others of us] reside [in the regions of] Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia.
Waparthia na vaMedi nava Elamu, navmo vikukala khu Mesopotamia, Yahudi namu Ponto naku Asia,
10 There are some from Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the regions in Libya [that are] near Cyrene [city]. [There are others of us] who are [here] visiting [Jerusalem] from Rome.
Mu Frigia, Pamilia, namu Misri, naku Libya naku Kirene, navahesia voni kuhuma ku Rumi,
11 [They include native] Jews as well as non-Jews who have accepted what we Jews believe. And others of us are from Crete [Island] and from [the region of] Arabia. [So how is it that these people] are speaking our languages [MTY], telling us [about] (the great/the mighty things) [that] God has done?”
Va Yahudi, na vimiike, Wakrete na Vaarabu, tukavapulika vijova munjovele situ ulwa vutavulilua lwa mbombo saNguluve.”
12 All [those people] were amazed, and did not know what to think [about what was happening]. So they asked one another, “What does this mean?”
Voni valyaghaswike napikwalangana; valijofisie vavuo Kwan vavuo,
13 But [some] of them (made fun of/laughed at) [those who believed in Jesus]. They said, “[These people are talking like this because] they are drunk!”
“Ulu lulindani?” Niiki avenge valyasyojuli vakati, “Ava vamemile uluhujo ulupya.”
14 So Peter stood up with the [other] eleven [apostles] and spoke loudly to the [crowd of] people, saying, “[My] fellow Jews and you [others] who are staying in Jerusalem, listen to me, all of you, and I will explain to you what is happening!
Loli uPetro akiima palikimo navala kijigho na jimo, akakolelela kiongo, akavavula, “Mwevanhu va Yudea navoni vano vikukala apa pa Yerusalemu, iili live pavuvalafu paliumue, mupulikisyiaghe vunofu amasio aghango.
15 [Some of] you think that [we(exc) are drunk], but we are not drunk. It is [only] nine o’clock in the morning, [and people here never get drunk this early] in the day!
Avanhu ava navaghalile ndavule musagha, ulwakuva unsiki ughu lwakilavo kivalilo kya vutatu.
16 Instead, [what has happened to us is] the [miraculous] thing that the prophet Joel wrote about [long ago]. [Joel wrote]: God says,
Loli iili lilyajovilue kukilila kwa m'bili uYoheli:
17 ‘During the last/final days [before I judge all people], I will give my Spirit abundantly/generously to people [SYN] everywhere. [As a result], your sons and daughters will tell [people] messages from me, the young men among you will see visions [from me], and the old men among you will have dreams [that I will give them].
Jiliva mufighono ifya vusililo, u Nguluve ijova, nilikung'ilila umhepo ghuango ku vanhu voni. Avana vinhu navalivinhu vihumiagha uvuvili, avasoleka vinhu vilisonuagha sinosivoneka, navaghogholo vinhu vilighonelagha injosi.
18 During those days I will abundantly/generously give my Spirit [even] to men and women believers [who are] my slaves/servants, so they can tell [people] messages from me.
Vulevule ulwa vavombi vango name vavombi vango ava hinja mufighono ifio, nikung'a uMhepo ghwango vope vilivilagha.
19 I will cause amazing things to happen in the sky, and I will do miracles on the earth that will show [that I am powerful]. [Here] on the earth [CHI] I [will cause wars with] blood, fire and thick/dark smoke [everywhere].
Nihufiagha isakudegha kukyanya kuvulanga nifidegho pasi pa iisi, idanda, umwoto, niliiosi ilighifu.
20 [In the sky] the sun will [appear] dark [to people] and the moon [will appear] red [to them. Those things will happen] before the important and splendid/amazing day [MTY] [when I], the Lord [God, will come to judge everyone].
IlijuvaIlijuva lilahambusivua kuva ng'isi naghumwesi kuva danda, ye kikyale ikighono ikivaha nhi fidegho fya Mutwa.
21 [Before that time], all those who ask [me] [MTY] [to save them from the guilt of their sins] will be saved {[I], the Lord, will save all those who ask [me] [MTY] [to save them from the guilt of their sins].}’”
Liliva ndiki umunhu ghueni Juno ikulitambulagha iliisio lya Mutwa ilivanguka.'
22 [Peter continued], “[My fellow] Israelites, listen to me! [When] Jesus from Nazareth [town lived] among you, God proved to you [that he had sent him] by enabling him to do many amazing miracles. You yourselves know [that this is true].
Mwevanhu va Islaeli, mupulikaghe amasio agha: U Yesu ghwa Nazareti, umunhu Juno mpesie nhu Nguluve kuliumue ni mbombo savatavulilua ni sakudegha, nifidegho fino uNguluve kukila pakate paliumue, ndavulejumue mulumanyile-
23 [Even though you knew that], you turned this man [Jesus] over to his enemies. [However], God had already planned for that, and he knew all about it. Then you urged men [SYN] who do not obey [God’s] law to kill Jesus. They did that by nailing him to a cross.
Ulwakuva uvutavike vulyahuvilue kuhuma kuvutengulilo, nhuvupakasi vwa Nguluve, alyatavulivue, numue, mumavoko gha vanhu avanangi, mulya n'komelile na pikum'buda,
24 He suffered terribly [when he died, but God caused him to become alive again]. God did not let him continue to be dead, because it was not possible for him [PRS] to remain dead.”
Juno unguluveunguluve alya mwimike, akavusia uvuvafi vwa vufue Kwa mwene, ulwakuva nalukunoghile Kwa mwene kutemua nuluo.
25 “[Long ago King] David wrote [what] the Messiah [said], “knew [that] you, Lord [God, would always] be near me. You are right beside [MTY] me, so I will not be afraid of [those who want to harm me].
Ndiki u Daddy ijova vwimila vwa mwene, nilyamwaghile u Mutwa jatu pamaso ghango, umwene alikuluvokoko lwango ulwa kundio apene lolii nani veghelesivuagha.
26 Because of that I [SYN] joyfully praise [you, O God]. And I am completely confident that [you(sg) will] ([cause my body] to become alive [again]/[raise me from the dead]).
Ulwene umwojo ghwango ghuliale nhu lukelo nalulumilii lwango lulya hovosivue. Kange naghum'bilii ghwango ghukukalagha n'kangafu.
27 You will not allow my spirit to remain in the place where the dead are. You will not [even] let my body decay, [because] I am devoted to you and always obey [you]. (Hadēs g86)
Nhulaluleka uluvelo lyango lulaluta kuvulugu, nambe naghulikuntavula umwimike ghwako kulola uvuvole. (Hadēs g86)
28 You have told me [that you will cause my body] to become alive [again]. You will make me very happy [because] you will be with me [forever].”
Uve uhufisie kuliune iisila is vwumi; ghukumbika nimeme ulukelo pavulongolo pa maso ghako.'
29 [Peter] continued, “My fellow Jews, I can tell you confidently that [our royal] ancestor, [King] David, died, and that his [body] was buried {that [people] buried his [body]}. And the place [where they] buried his body is [still] here today.
Nyalukolo, nakaguile kujova kuliumue ulukangasio ulwa Nata ghwitu Daudi: umwene alyafuile nakusyilua, najimbipa ja mwene jilipalikimo nusue mpaka umusyiughu iji.
30 So [we(inc) know that David was not speaking those words about himself. But] because he was a prophet, [he spoke about the Messiah]. David knew that God had strongly promised him that he would cause one of his descendants to become king [MTY] like David was king. (OR, to [be the Messiah who would] rule [God’s people] like David had ruled [them].)
Anala, alyale m'bili kange aliyah kaguile kuuti uNguluve alijighile ulwuigho Kwan mwene, pa kitengo ikya vutwa.
31 David knew beforehand [what God would do], so he [was able to] say that God would cause the Messiah to live again [after he died]. He said that God would not let the Messiah remain in the place of the dead, nor let his body decay.” (Hadēs g86)
Iili alyalyaghila ng'ani pe akajova ulwakusyiuka lwa kilisite, 'nambe nalyamulekile kuvulugu, nambe naghu m'bili ghwna mwene na ghuvolile. (Hadēs g86)
32 “[After] this [man] Jesus [had died], God caused him to become alive [again]. All of us(exc), [his followers], have seen [and tell people] that Jesus has become alive again.
U Yesu uju - u Nguluve alyan'syusisie, Juno usue twueni tulivolesi.
33 God has greatly honored Jesus [by causing him to rule] right beside him [MTY] [in heaven]. Jesus has received the Holy Spirit from [God] his Father, [just like] God promised. [So] Jesus has generously/abundantly given us the Holy Spirit, [and he has shown that by] what you are seeing and hearing.
Pa uluo, ye anyanyulivue muluvoko ulwa Nguluve ulwa ndio, ye upile ulufingo lwa Mhepo Mwimike kuhuma Kwa Nhata, umwene akung'ilile ulufingo ulu, lung umue mukuluvona na kupulika.
34 [We(inc) know that David was not speaking about himself] because David did not go up into heaven [as Jesus did]. [Besides that], David himself said [this about the Messiah]: The Lord [God] said to my Lord [the Messiah], ‘Reign here beside me,
Nakuva u Daudi nalya toghile kuluta kukyanya, loli iiti, 'U Mutwa alyajovile Kwan Mutwa ghwango,
35 while I completely defeat [MTY] your enemies.’”
“ikaale kuluvoko lwango ulwa ndiio, kudugha niliva nikuvavombela avalugu vako kitengo kya maghulu ghako.
36 [Peter concluded], “So I [want you and] all [other] Israelites [MTY] to acknowledge that God has caused this Jesus to be both [our] Lord/Ruler and the Messiah. [But God considers that] you are the ones who nailed Jesus to a cross.”
Ku luo inyumba jooni Jack Israeli jikagule said kyang'ani u Nguluve ambikili umwene kuva Mutwa kange kilisite, uYesu Juno mulyankomelile.”
37 When the people heard what [Peter said], they felt very guilty [IDM]. So they asked him and the other apostles, “Fellow-countrymen, what should we [(exc)] do [so that God will forgive us]?”
Lino yevapulike Ayala, sikavanyanya munhumbula savanave, vakambula uPetro navasung'wa avenge e, “Vanyalukolo, tuvombekiki?”
38 Peter [answered] them, “Each of you should turn away from your sinful behavior. Then [we(exc)] will baptize you, if [you now believe] in Jesus Christ. Then [God] will give you the Holy Spirit.
U Petrol pe akavavula, “Mulataaghe, mwofughue, umunhu ghweni, mulitavua lya Yesu kilisite ulya kusaghilua uvohosi vwinu, Kane mukupilagha uluvonolo lwa Mhepo Mwimike.
39 [God] has promised [to do that] [MTY] for you and your descendants, and for all [others who believe in him], even those who [live] far away [from here]. The Lord our God [will give his Spirit] to everyone whom he invites [to become his people]!”
Ulyakuva kulyiumue lwe lufingo na kuvana voni navano valikuvutali, avanhu vinga ndavule uMutwa u Nguluve ghwitu ndavulendavule kyande ikuvakemela.
40 Peter spoke much more [and] spoke strongly/forcefully to them. He pleaded with them, “[Ask God] to save you [so that he will not punish you when he punishes] these evil people [who have rejected Jesus]!”
Kumasio minga alyavolekile na kuvapelepesia; akati, “Mujavule muhume mukikolo iiki kivuafu.”
41 So the people who believed Peter’s message were baptized. There were about 3,000 [SYN] [who] joined the group [of believers] that day.
Pepano vakavupilagha amasio gha mwene na kukwofughuagha, apuo pe vakongelela mukighono ikio ndavule kufika imbelo imbilima itatu.
42 They continually obeyed what the apostles taught, and they very frequently met together [with the other believers]. And they continually ate [together and celebrated the Lord’s Supper], and continually prayed [together].
Vakajigha vagadilile imbulanisio said vasung'wa name kutangilanila, mulwa kumenyula unkate na munyifunyo.
43 All the people [SYN] [who were in Jerusalem] were greatly revering [God because] the apostles were frequently doing many kinds of miraculous things.
Uludwesi lukisa kumbelo soon, nisakudegha mufidegho siksvombeka kukilila ku va sung'wa.
44 All of those who believed [in Jesus] were united [and regularly met] together. They were also sharing everything that they had with one another.
Vanilla vano valyitike valyalevalyale palikimo na kuva nifinhu fivanave palikimo,
45 [From time to time some of] them sold [some of] their land and [some of the other] things that they owned, and they would give [some of] the money [from what they sold] to others [among them], according to what they needed.
pevakaghusiagha ifinhu fivanave na pighavania ku vooni kuling'ana nujunge ndavule akalondagha.
46 Every day they continued meeting together in the temple [area]. And every day they gladly and generously shared their food [SYN] [with each other], as they ate together [and celebrated the Lord’s Supper] in their houses.
Uluo ikighono pa kighono vakaghendelelagha nuvutavike vumo munyumba imbaha inyimikeinyimike ijakufunyila, valyamenyuile un'kate munyumba, valyahangilanile kuliakulia ikyakulia nulukelo nhu vukoola vwa numbula.
47 [As they did so], they were praising God, and all the [other] people [in Jerusalem] were [thinking] favorably about them. [As those things were happening], every day the Lord [Jesus] increased the number of people who were being saved {whom he was saving} [from the guilt of their sins].
Valyamughinisie u Nguluve vakitikisivuagha na vanhu voni. U Mutwa alyavongelisie mukighono kange mukighono vano valyale vivanguka.
