Acts 28
1 Our lives having been thus preserved, we discovered that the island was called Malta.
Bhotufikisibhu kinofu, twamanyili kujha kisibhwa kukutibhwa Malta.
2 The strange-speaking natives showed us remarkable kindness, for they lighted a fire and made us all welcome because of the pelting rain and the cold.
Bhanu bhenyeji bha pala si tu bhatupelili ukarimu bhwa kawaida, bali bhakosi muoto ni kutukaribisya bhoha, kwandabha jha fula ni mepu jha jhijhendeleleghe.
3 Now, when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and had thrown them on the fire, a viper, driven by the heat, came out and fastened itself on his hand.
Lakini Paulo bho abhongeniye nsighu ghwa mbabhu ni kubheka pa muoto, lijhoka lidebe lyalijhe ni sumu akahoma mu mbabhu mola kwandabha jha lijotolela, ni kwisyongosya mu kibhoko kya muene.
4 When the natives saw the creature hanging to his hand, they said to one another, "Beyond doubt this man is a murderer, for, though saved from the sea, unerring Justice does not permit him to live."
Bhanu bhenyeji bha pala bhobhebhuene mnyama inimbila mu kibhoko kya muene, bhakajobhesana bhene kwa bhene, “Munu ojho hakika muuaji atoruiki mu bahari, lakini haki jhikanduhusu lepi kuishi.”
5 He, however, shook the reptile off into the fire and was unhurt.
Lakini muene akansopa mnyama ojhu mu muoto na akabhilepi madhara ghoghoha.
6 They expected him soon to swell with inflammation or suddenly fall down dead; but, after waiting a long time and seeing no harm come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.
Bhene bhakajha bhakandendela afimbayi kwa homa au abinayi ghafla ni kufwa. Lakini baada jha kundanga kwa muda mrefu ni kubhona kujha lijhelepi lijambo ambalyo la kawaida lepi kwa muene, bhakabadilisya mawazo gha bhene ni kujobha ajhele K'yara.
7 Now in the same part of the island there were estates belonging to the Governor, whose name was Publius. He welcomed us to his house, and for three days generously made us his guests.
Basi mahali pala karibu pajhele ni ardhi ambajho jhajhele mali jha mbaha ghwa kisiwa, munu jha akutibhweghe Pablio. Atukaribisi ni kutukarimu kwa magono madatu.
8 It happened, however, that his father was lying ill of dysentery aggravated by attacks of fever; so Paul went to see him, and, after praying, laid his hands on him and cured him.
Jhatokili kujha ni dadi ghwa Pablio akamulibhu ni homa ni bhutamu bhwa kuhara. Ni Paulo bho andotili, asokili akabheka mabhoko panani pa muene ni kumponesya.
9 After this, all the other sick people in the island came and were cured.
Baada jha e'le kuhomela, bhanu bhangi pa kisiwa pala bhabhalwaleghe kabhele bhakalota ni kumponyesibhwa.
10 They also loaded us with honours, and when at last we sailed they put supplies on board for us.
Bhanu bhakatuheshimu kwa heshima simehele. Bho twikiandala kusafiri, bhatupelili fela fya tulondeghe.
11 Three months passed before we set sail in an Alexandrian vessel, called the 'Twin Brothers,' which had wintered at the island.
Baada jha miesi midatu, twasafiri mugati mu meli jha Iskanda ambajho jhajhele jhitobhibhu mepi apu pakisiwa, ambajho bhalongosi bhake bhajhele bhalongo bhabhele mapasa.
12 At Syracuse we put in and stayed for two days.
Baada jha kujha tutolili pa mji bhwa Sirakusa, twatamili pala magono madatu.
13 From there we came round and reached Rhegium; and a day later, a south wind sprang up which brought us by the evening of the next day to Puteoli.
Kuhomela pala twasafiri mu mji bhwa Regio. Baada jha ligono limonga mp'ongo ghwa kusini ghwatokili ghafla, na baada jha magono mabhele twafikili ku mji bhwa Putoli.
14 Here we found brethren, who invited us to remain with them for a week; and so we reached Rome.
Okhu twabhakolili baadhi jha bhalongobhifu na twakalibisibhu kutama nabhu kwa magono saba. Kwa njela ejhe tukahida Rumi.
15 Meanwhile the brethren there, hearing of our movements, came as far as the Market of Appius and the Three Huts to meet us; and when Paul saw them he thanked God and felt encouraged.
Kuhoma okhu bhala bhalongobhitu, baada jha kujha bhapeliki habari sya tete, bhakahida kutupokela okho soko lya Apias ni Hotel sidatu. Paulo bho abhuene bhala bhalongo akan'shukuru K'yara akakipela ujasiri.
16 Upon our arrival in Rome, Paul received permission to live by himself, guarded by a soldier.
Bho tujhingili Roma, Paulo aruhusibhu kutama muene pamonga ni jhola askari jha andendeghe.
17 After one complete day he invited the leading men among the Jews to meet him; and, when they were come together, he said to them, "As for me, brethren, although I had done nothing prejudicial to our people or contrary to the customs of our forefathers, I was handed over as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the power of the Romans.
Basi jhajhele baada jha magono madatu Paulo abhakutili bhala bhagosi bhabhajhele bhalongosi kati jha Bhayahudi. Bho bhahidili pamonga, ajobhi kwa bhene, “Bhalongobhangu, pamonga ni kwamba nibhombilepi likosa lyolyoha kwa bhanu abha au kubhomba kinyume ni taratibu sya bhakhokho bhitu bhabhatulongolili, napisibhu kama mfungwa kuhoma Yerusalemu hadi mu mabhoko gha Bharumi.
18 They, after they had sharply questioned me, were willing to set me at liberty, because they found no offence in me for which I deserve to die.
Baada jha kunihoji, bhanogheleghe kundeka huru, kwandabha kwajhelepi ni sababu kwa nene kulondeka adhabu jha kifo.
19 But, at last, the opposition of the Jews compelled me to appeal to Caesar; not however that I had any charge to bring against my nation.
Lakini Bhayahudi bhala bho bhalongili kinyume kya shauku jha bhene, nalazimiki kukata rufaa kwa Kaisari, japokujha jhajhelepi kana kwamba nileta mashataka panani pa taifa lya nene.
20 For these reasons, then, I have invited you here, that I might see you and speak to you; for it is for the sake of Him who is the hope of Israel that this chain hangs upon me."
Kwa ndabha jha kukata kwa nene rufaa, efyo, nasokili ni kulongela namu. Kwandabha jha khela ambakyo Israeli ajhe ni ujasiri naku, nifungibhu ni kifungu ekhe.
21 "For our part," they replied, "we have not received any letters from Judaea about you, nor have any of our countrymen come here and reported or stated anything to your disadvantage.
Kisha bhakan'jobhela, “Tubhwayilepi kupokela barua kuhoma Yudea kuhusu bhebhe, wala ndongobhu kuhida kupisya taarifa au kujobha lilobhi lyolyoha lela libaya kuhusu bhebhe.
22 But we should be glad to hear from you what it is that you believe; for as for this sect all we know is that it is everywhere spoken against."
Lakini twilonda kupeleka likundi e'le lya bhanu abha, kwandabha limanyikene kwa tete kujha lilongela kinyume kila mahali.”
23 So they arranged a day with him and came to him in considerable numbers at the house of the friends who were entertaining him. And then, with solemn earnestness, he explained to them the subject of the Kingdom of God, endeavouring from morning till evening to convince them about Jesus, both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets.
Bhobhatengili ligono kwandabha jha bhene, bhanu bhingi bhan'hidili mahali pa atameghe. Ajobhi lijambo lela kwa bhene ni kushuhudila kuhusu ufalme bhwa K'yara. Ajaribu kubhashawishi kuhusu Yesu, kwa namna syoha sibhele kuhoma kusheria sya Musa ni kuhoma kwa manabii, kujhandila lukhela hadi kimihi.
24 Some were convinced; others refused to believe.
Baadhi jha bhene bhashawishiki kuhusu mambo ghala ghaghajobhibhu, wakati bhamana bhkyeri lepi.
25 Unable to agree among themselves, they at last left him, but not before Paul had spoken a parting word to them, saying, "Right well did the Holy Spirit say to your forefathers through the Prophet Isaiah:
Bhobhashindilu kukubaliana bhene kwa bhene, bhabhokili baada jha Paulo kulijobha lijambo e'le limonga, “Roho Mtakatifu ajobhili kinofu kup'etela Isaya nabii kwa bhadadi jhinu.
26 "'Go to this people and tell them, you will hear and hear, and by no means understand; and will look and look, and by no means see.
Ajobhili, 'Lotayi kwa bhanu abha ujobhayi, “Kwa mb'olokoto sya jhomu mwibetakup'eleka, lakini mwibetalepi kujhelebhwa; Na kwa mihu ghinu mwibetakulola lakini mwibetakutambula lepi.
27 For this people's mind has grown callous, their hearing has become dull, and their eyes they have closed; to prevent their ever seeing with their eyes, or hearing with their ears, or understanding with their minds, and turning back, so that I might cure them.'
Kwandabha jha mioyo jha bhanu abha midhaifu, mb'ol'okoto sya bhene sipeleka kwa tabu, bhafumbili mihu gha bhene, ili kwamba bhasihidi kutambula kwa mihu gha bhene, ni kup'el'eka kwa mb'ol'okoto sya bhene, ni kujhelebhwa kwa mioyo ghya bhene ni kugeuka kabhele, na nganibhaponyisi.”'
28 "Be fully assured, therefore, that this salvation--God's salvation--has now been sent to the Gentiles, and that they, at any rate, will give heed."
Kwa hiyo, mwilondeka kumanya kujha bhwokovu obho bhwa K'yara up'elekibhu kwa bhanu bha Mataifa, na bhibetakup'elekesya.”
30 After this Paul lived for fully two years in a hired house of his own, receiving all who came to see him.
Paulo atamili mu nyumba jha muene jha kupanga kwa miaka ghioha mibhele, na kwa muene.
31 He announced the coming of the Kingdom of God, and taught concerning the Lord Jesus Christ without let or hindrance.
Akajha ihubiri ufalme bhwa K'yara na akajha ifundisya mambo juu jha Bwana Yesu Kristu kwa ujasiri bhwoha. Ajhelepi jha am'besili.
