Acts 28
1 And when they had escaped, then they knew that the isle was called Melita.
Patusokiti kala nyanyi muisi iyuma, tuvimaniti kuwera shisiwa shilii shishemitwi Malita.
2 And the barbarous people showed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.
Wenikaya wa palii watutendiriti gaherepa nentu. Vula iweriti yankwanja kutowa na kuweriti na mbepu, su wakoziyiti motu na watushemeriti woseri twenga.
3 And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid [them] on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.
Paulu kasoliti shisanka shididini sha mbawu na pakashituliti mumotu, toziya ya livuki lya motu, njoka yakawera na usungu kalawiti mushisanka shilii na kumnyengelera muliwoku lyakuwi.
4 And when the barbarians saw the animal hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.
Wenikaya wa palii pawamuwoniti njoka ulii kalinyengelera muliwoku lya Paulu, su waligambiziyana, “Muntu ayu kalagaga tembera kalopoziwa kulawa mubahali, kuhowa hapeni kumleki kalikali!”
5 And he shook off the animal into the fire, and felt no harm.
Kumbiti Paulu kampuntiriti njoka ulii mumotu na mweni katenduwitwi ndiri ata padidini.
6 Yet they looked when he would have swelled, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.
Wantu waweriti wankulolera mekatutumuki ama mekaguwi na kuhowa. Kumbiti pakwoyera kwa shipindi shitangala na kwona kwahera shoseri shashimlawiriti, womberi wagalamburiti maholu gawu na kwanja kulonga kuwera yomberi ndo mlungu.
7 In the same quarters were possessions of the chief man of the isle, whose name was Publius; who received us, and lodged us three days courteously.
Pakwegera na pahala palii paweriti na malambu ga mkulu gwa shisiwa shilii yakashemitwi Publiu. Yomberi katuwankiti na kututendera kwa moyu guherepa kwa shipindi sha mashaka matatu.
8 And it came to pass that the father of Publius lay sick with a fever, and a bloody-flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on him, and healed him.
Tati gwakuwi Publiu kagonjiti mushitanda, yomberi kaweriti kapyupa na kupweka mwazi. Paulu kingiriti mnumba su kamwoni na pakaluwa Mlungu, katula mawoku pamlweri na kumponiziya.
9 So when this was done, others also who had diseases in the isle, came, and were healed:
Kulawirana na shitwatira ashi, wantu woseri yawalikaliti mushisiwa shilii, walii yawaweriti walweli su wiziti na waponiziwitwi.
10 Who also honored us with many honors; and when we departed, they laded [us] with such things as were necessary.
Womberi watupananiti ligoya nentu, na twenga patuweriti kala mumwanja kupitira mubahali, womberi watuliti mumtumbwi vintu vivuwa vyatuvifiriti.
11 And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.
Pa miyezi mitatu twanjiti mwanja kayi kwa meli yaigolokiti pashisiwa shilii toziya ya shipindi sha mpepu. Meli ayi iweriti ya Alekizandiriya iweriti na alama ya milungu mawira yawashemwa Kasita na Polukisi.
12 And landing at Syracuse, we tarried [there] three days.
Patusokiti mlushi lwa Sirakusi, tulikaliti aku kwa mashaka matatu.
13 And from thence we made a circuit, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli:
Kulawa kulii tugenditi pampeku pa bahari na tusokiti mlushi lwa Regiu. Lishaka lyalifatiti lyega lyalihera makakala lyanjiti kuvuma kulawa kusika, na kwa mwanja gwa mashaka mawili tusokiti mlushi lwa Potioli.
14 Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went towards Rome.
Aku tuwawoniti walongu yawatushemiriti tulikali pamuhera nawomberi kwa lijuwa limu. Su twendereyiti na mwanja mpaka tusokiti Rumi.
15 And from thence when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii-forum, and the Three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage.
Walongu wa aku Rumi pawapatiti visoweru vyetu, womberi wiziti kulisoku lya Apiu na pahala papashemwa “mikahawa mitatu” kutwanka. Paulu pakawawoniti, yomberi kalongiti mayagashii Mlungu, su shitwatira ashi shimtenditi kaweriti na moyu.
16 And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself, with a soldier that kept him.
Patusokiti Rumi, Paulu wamlekeziyiti kulikala gweka yakuwi pakawera na mnjagira yumu gwa kumlolera.
17 And it came to pass, that after three days, Paul called together the chief of the Jews. And when they were assembled, he said to them, Men, brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
Pa mashaka matatu, Paulu kawashemiti pamuhera wakulu wa Shiyawudi. Pawajojinikiti kala, yomberi kawagambiriti, “Walongu wangu, tembera neni nuwatenda ndiri shitwatira shoseri wantu wetu ama vitiba vya watati wetu kumbiti nkamulitwi aku Yerusalemu na kutulwa mumawoku mwa Warumi.
18 Who when they had examined me, would have let [me] go, because there was no cause of death in me.
Pawankosiyiti kala na kuwona nahera shidoda shoseri, womberi wafiriti kulekeziya.
19 But when the Jews spoke against [it], I was constrained to appeal to Cesar; not that I had aught to accuse my nation of.
Kumbiti Wayawudi wamonga walemiti shitwatira ashi, neni nazimika kukata lufaa kwa Kaisari tembera neni nweriti ndiri na shoseri sha kuwasitaki wantu wa lushi lwangu.
20 For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see [you], and to speak with [you]: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.
Toziya ayi nduwa kuliwona na kuyowera na mwenga, mana ndawalirwa minyololu ayi toziya ya litumbiru lilii lya Israeli.”
21 And they said to him, We have neither received letters from Judea concerning thee, neither have any of the brethren that came shown or spoken any harm of thee.
Womberi wamwankula, “Twenga tuwanka ndiri luhamba lwoseri kulawa Yudeya kuusu gwenga, ama kwahera mlongu yoseri yakiziti panu na kulaviya shisoweru ama kutakula shoseri shidoda kuusu gwenga.
22 But we desire to hear from thee, what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
Kumbiti metufiri kupikinira kulawa kwaku shilii shaguhola toziya tuvimana kuwera kila pahala wantu wankutakulira madoda kuusu womberi.”
23 And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into [his] lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and [out of] the prophets, from morning till evening.
Su pawapangiti lishaka lya kuliwona na womberi, wantu wavuwa wiziti kwanjira mandawira mpaka pamihi Paulu kawagambiriti vitwatira vivuwa na kulaviya ukapitawu kuusu Ufalumi wa Mlungu. Yomberi kajeriti kuwatenda wajimiri shisoweru kuusu Yesu kulawa Mumalagaliru ga Musa na malembu ga wambuyi wa Mlungu.
24 And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.
Wamonga wawu wajimiriti shisoweru shakuwi kumbiti wamonga wajimira ndiri.
25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after Paul had spoken one word, Well spoke the Holy Spirit by Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,
Su womberi wajimilirana ndiri, na pawayanjiti kuwuka, Paulu katakuliti shitwatira shimu, “Rohu Mnanagala katakuliti nakaka na watati wenu palii kupitira Isaya mbuyi gwa Mlungu,
26 Saying, Go to this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive.
Pakalongiti, ‘Gugendi kwa wantu awa na gukawagambiri, kupikinira hampikiniri, kumbiti hapeni mwerewi, kulola hamloli, kumbiti hapeni mwoni.
27 For the heart of this people is become gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with [their] eyes, and hear with [their] ears, and understand with [their] heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
Toziya myoyu ya wantu awa iwera ikamala, na makutu gawu gadiwa womberi wawona ndiri. Pamonga womberi mewaloli kwa masu gawu na mewapikaniri kwa makutu gawu, mewavimani kwa myoyu yawu na mewang'alambukiri, na neni meniwaponiziyi.’”
28 Be it known therefore to you, that the salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it.
“Su neni nfira mwenga muvimani kuwera ulopoziya wa Mlungu ujegwa kwa wantu yawawera ndiri Wayawudi na womberi hawapikiniri!”
29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
Na yomberi pakatakuliti kala visoweru avi, Wayawudi wawuka pawawera na visoweru mumyoyu mwawu.
30 And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in to him,
Kwa shipindi sha vinja viwili vyoseri Paulu kalikaliti kulaa pakaya pakapangiti mweni, kaweriti kankuwashemera woseri yawasokiti kumulamsiya.
31 Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.
Kwa ugangamala na pota na lyoga yomberi kaweriti kankuwubwera Ufalumi wa Mlungu na kufunda kuusu Mtuwa Yesu Kristu.
