Acts 11
1 Now the Apostles, and the brethren in various parts of Judaea, heard that the Gentiles also had received God's Message;
Mitume ni bhalongo bhale bhabhajhe okhu Yudea bhap'eliki kujha bhamataifa bhalipokili lilobhi lya K'yara.
2 and, when Peter returned to Jerusalem, the champions of circumcision found fault with him.
Petro bho ahidili okhu Yerusalemu, likundi lya bhanu bha bhatahiribhu bhakajhanda kun'kosola, bhakajobha,
3 "You went into the houses of men who are not Jews," they said, "and you ate with them."
“Ushikamane ni bhanu bhabhabeli kutahiribhwa na wilya nabhu!”
4 Peter, however, explained the whole matter to them from the beginning.
Lakini Petro akajhanda kujhelesya litukio kwa kina, akajobha,
5 "While I was in the town of Jaffa, offering prayer," he said, "in a trance I saw a vision. There descended what seemed to be an enormous sail, being let down from the sky by ropes at the four corners, and it came close to me.
“Nisomeghe mu ghwa Yafa, na nabhwene maono gha khenu kiselela pasi kama nghobho jhiselela kuhomela kumbinguni mu pembe syake syoha. kyaselili kwa nene.
6 Fixing my eyes on it, I examined it closely, and saw various kinds of quadrupeds, wild beasts, reptiles and birds.
Nakilolili ni kufikirira juu jha kiene. Nabhabhwene bhanyama bhenye magolo mancheche bhabhitama mu nchi ni bhanyama bha mudasi ni bhanyama bhabhi boya ni fidege fya angani.
7 I also heard a voice saying to me, "'Rise, Peter, kill and eat.'
Kisha nikap'eleka sauti jhijobha ni nene, “jhumukayi, Petro, chinjayi nauliayi!”
8 "'On no account, Lord,' I replied, 'for nothing unholy or impure has ever gone into my mouth.'
Nikajobha, “Nahalepi, Bwana, mundomo mwa nene kibhwayilepi kujhingila khenu kyokyoha kyakibeli kujha kitakatifu au kichafu”
9 "But a voice answered, speaking a second time from the sky, "'What God has purified, you must not regard as unholy.'
Lakini sauti jhajibi kabhele kuhomela kumbinguni, khela K'yara kya kakitangaseli kujha kinofu, usikikuti najisi,
10 "This was said three times, and then everything was drawn up again out of sight.
Ejhe jhatokili mara sidatu na khila khanu kyatolibhu kumbinguni kabhele.
11 "Now at that very moment three men came to the house where we were, having been sent from Caesarea to find me.
Langayi bwakati obhu bhanu bhadatu bhajhela bhajhele; bhatumibhu kuhomela Kaisaria kuhida kwa nene.
12 And the Spirit told me to accompany them without any misgivings. There also went with me these six brethren who are now present, and we reached the Centurion's house.
Roho akanijobhela lotayi nabhu, na nisitofautiani nabhu. Abha bhagosi sits bhakalota pamonga ni nene na twalitili munyumba jha munu mmonga.
13 Then he described to us how he had seen the angel come and enter his house and say, "'Send to Jaffa and fetch Simon, surnamed Peter.
Atujobhili fela kyambwene malaika ajhe mili mugati mu nyumba jha muene akajobha, “Nilaghisiayi Yafa nikandetayi Simoni ambajhe lihina l'enge Petro.
14 He will teach you truths by which you and all your family will be saved.'"
Ibeta kujobha ujumbe kwa bhebhe muobhu wibeta kuokoka bhebhe ni nyumba jha jhobhi jhioha.”
15 "And," said Peter, "no sooner had I begun to speak than the Holy Spirit fell upon them, just as He fell upon us at the first.
Bhonijhandi kujobha nabhu, Roho mtakatifu akahida panani pa bhene kama kya ahidili kwa tete kubhwandelu.
16 Then I remembered the Lord's words, how He used to say, "'John baptized with water, but you shall be baptized in the Holy Spirit.'
Nikomboka malobhi gha Bwana, kya ajobhili, “Yohana abatisibhu kwa masi, lakini mwibeta kubatisibhwa kwa Roho mtakatifu.”
17 "If therefore God gave them the same gift as He gave us when we first believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, why, who was I to be able to thwart God?"
Kabhele kama K'yara ahomisi zawadi kama sya atupelili tete potukyeriri Bwana Yesu kristu, nene ne niani kujha nibhwesya kumpinga K'yara?
18 This statement of Peter's silenced his opponents. They extolled the goodness of God, and said, "So, then, to the Gentiles also God has given the repentance which leads to Life."
Bhobhap'eliki mambo agha, bhakerebhuisi lepi, bali bhan'sifili K'yara ni kujobha, “K'yara apisi toba kwa ajili jha bhamataifa kabhele.”
19 Those, however, who had been driven in various directions by the persecution which broke out on account of Stephen made their way to Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, delivering the Message to none but Jews.
Basi bhaamini ambabho malombosi ghajhandili mu kifo kya stefano bhatawanyiki kuhoma Yerusalemu- bhaamini abha bhalotili patali hadi mpakaFoinike, Kipro ni Antiokia. Bhabhajobhili ujumbe kuhusu yesu muene kwa bhayahudi na sio kwa jhongi jhejhioha.
20 But some of them were Cyprians and Cyrenaeans, who, on coming to Antioch, spoke to the Greeks also and told them the Good News concerning the Lord Jesus.
Lakini baadhi jhabhene ndo bhanu kuhoma kipro ni krene, bhahidili Antikia ni kujobha ni bhayunani ni kun'hubiri Bwana Yesu.
21 The power of the Lord was with them, and there were a vast number who believed and turned to the Lord.
Ni kibhoko kjya Bwana bhwajhele pamonga ni bhene, na bhanu bhingi bhakeriri ni kun'geukila Bwana.
22 When tidings of this reached the ears of the Church in Jerusalem, they sent Barnabas as far as Antioch.
Habari sya bhene syafikili mu mb'olokoto mwa kanisa lya Yerusalemu: na bhan'tumili Barnaba alotayi mpaka Anttikia.
23 On getting there he was delighted to see the grace which God had bestowed; and he encouraged them all to remain, with fixed resolve, faithful to the Lord.
Bho ahidi ni kubhona karama jha K'yara ahobhwiki; na abhapeli muoyo bhuoha kubakila ni Bwana mu mioyo ghya bhene.
24 For he was a good man, and was full of the Holy Spirit and of faith; and the number of believers in the Lord greatly increased.
Kwa ndaba ajhele munu mwema na amemesibhu ni Roho mtakatifu ni imani ni bhanu bhamehele bhakajhongeseka kwa Bwana.
25 Then Barnabas paid a visit to Tarsus to try to find Saul.
Baadaye Barnaba alotili Tarso kumbona Sauli.
26 He succeeded, and brought him to Antioch; and for a whole year they attended the meetings of the Church, and taught a large number of people. And it was in Antioch that the disciples first received the name of 'Christians.'
Bho an'kabhili, akandeta Antiokia. Akajha kwa mwaka ghuoha bhakabhonganika pamonga ni kanisa ni kubhamanyisya bhanu bhamehele. Ni bhanafunzi bhakakutibhwa bhakristu kwa mara jha kuanza okhu Antiokia.
27 At that time certain Prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch,
Ni katika magono agha manabii bhakaselela kuhomela Yerusalemu, mpaka Antiokia.
28 one of whom, named Agabus, being instructed by the Spirit, publicly predicted the speedy coming of a great famine throughout the world. (It came in the reign of Claudius.)
Mmonga bhabhi Agabo ndo lihina lya muene, akajhema iashiribhwa ni Roho kujha njala jhikali jhibeta kutokela pa ulimwengu poha Ese syahomili wakati wa magono gha Klaudio.
29 So the disciples decided to send relief, every one in proportion to his means, to the brethren living in Judaea.
Kwa hiyo bhanafunzi khila mmonga kya afanikibhu, bhaamuili kupeleka misaada kwa bhalongobhe jhe Uyahudi.
30 This they did, forwarding their contributions to the Elders by Barnabas and Saul.
Bhabhombi naba; bhalaghisi hela kwa kibhoko kya Barnaba ni Sauli.
