Acts 16
1 And he came to Derbe and Lystra, and lo, a certain disciple was there, by name Timotheus son of a certain woman, a believing Jewess, but of a father, a Greek,
Paulo kabhele bho ahidili Derbe ni Litra; na langayi, pala pajhe ni mwanafunzi jhaakutibhweghe Timotheo, ndo kijana jhaahogoliki ni mabhu ghwa Kiyahudi ambajhe ndo muumini ni dadi munu ndo mgiriki.
2 who was well testified to by the brethren in Lystra and Iconium;
Bhanu bha listra ni Ikonia bhan'shuhudili kinofu.
3 this one did Paul wish to go forth with him, and having taken [him], he circumcised him, because of the Jews who are in those places, for they all knew his father — that he was a Greek.
Paulo andondeghe ili asafiriajhi nakhu, hiyo akantola ni kun'tahiri kwa ndabha jhe bhammanyili kujha dadimuni ndo Mgiriki.
4 And as they were going on through the cities, they were delivering to them the decrees to keep, that have been judged by the apostles and the elders who [are] in Jerusalem,
Bho bhilota bhap'elili ku miji nikuhomesya malaghisu ku makanisa ili kughatii malaghisu aghu ghalembibhu ni mitume ni bhasee okhu Yerusalemu.
5 then, indeed, were the assemblies established in the faith, and were abounding in number every day;
Efyo makanisa ghaimarishibhu mu imani ni bhabhaamini bhajhongesiki kwa idadi khila ligono.
6 and having gone through Phrygia and the region of Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia,
Paulo ni bhajhinu bha kalota firigia ni Galatia kwani Roho ghwa K'yara abhabesili kuhubiri lilobhi okhu ku lijimbo lya Asia.
7 having gone toward Mysia, they were trying to go on toward Bithynia, and the Spirit did not suffer them,
Bho bhakaribili Misia, bhajaribu kulota Bithinia, lakini Roho ghwa Yesu abhabesili.
8 and having passed by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
Kwa hiyo bhakapeta Misi bhakajhida mpaka mji bhwa Troa.
9 And a vision through the night appeared to Paul — a certain man of Macedonia was standing, calling upon him, and saying, 'Having passed through to Macedonia, help us;' —
Maono ghan'tokili Paulo pakilu, bhajheleni munu ghwa Makedonia ajhemili, akan'kuta ni kujobha, “Muhidayi mutulaidilayi choni Makedonia.”
10 and when he saw the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go forth to Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord hath called us to preach good news to them,
Paulo bho abhwene maono, mara tukakia ndala kulota Makedonia akimanya kujhe K'yara atukutili kulota kubhahubilila injili.
11 having set sail, therefore, from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, on the morrow also to Neapolis,
Hivyo twabhokili kuhoma Troa twalotili moja kwa moja Samothrake, ni ligono lyalafwatili twafikili mji bhwa Neapoli.
12 thence also to Philippi, which is a principal city of the part of Macedonia — a colony. And we were in this city abiding certain days,
Kuhoma apu tukalota Filipi ambaghyo ndo moja ghya mji bhwa Makedonia, mji muhimu mu wilaya ni utawala bhwa Kirumi ni kutama magono kadhaa.
13 on the sabbath-day also we went forth outside of the city, by a river, where there used to be prayer, and having sat down, we were speaking to the women who came together,
Ligono lya sabato twalotili kwibhala kulango kwa njela jha kiholo sehemu ambajho tudhanieghe kubeta kujha ni mahali pa kubhombela maombi. Twatamili pasi ni kulongela ni bhamama bhabhahidi pamonga.
14 and a certain woman, by name Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, worshipping God, was hearing, whose heart the Lord did open to attend to the things spoken by Paul;
N'dala mmonga he akutibhweghe Lidia, n'hemelesajhi ghwa zambarau, kuhoma ku mji bhwa Tiatira, jha ikamwabudu K'yara atupelikisi. Bwana anfunguili muoyo bhwa muene ni kubheka maanani malobhi ghaghajobhibhu ni Paulo.
15 and when she was baptized, and her household, she did call upon us, saying, 'If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, having entered into my house, remain;' and she constrained us.
Baada jha kubatisibhwa, atusiili ni kujobha, “Kama munibhwene kujha nene na mwaminifu kwa Bwana, basi nikabhasihi mujhingilayi ni kutama kwa nene.”Atusihili kweli.
16 And it came to pass in our going on to prayer, a certain maid, having a spirit of Python, did meet us, who brought much employment to her masters by soothsaying,
Ikajha kwamba, bhotwilota mahali pa kus'oka, n'dala mmonga jheajhe ni pepo lya utambuzi abhone ne ni tete. Andetili Bwana ghwa muene faida simehele kwa kubashiri.
17 she having followed Paul and us, was crying, saying, 'These men are servants of the Most High God, who declare to us a way of salvation;'
N'dala ojho akan'kesya Paulo pamonga ni tete, akajha ipiga kelele ni kujobha, “Abha bhagosi ndo bhatumishi bha K'yara jha ajhe mbaha, bhabhikabhatangasila muenga habari jha wokovu.”
18 and this she was doing for many days, but Paul having been grieved, and having turned, said to the spirit, 'I command thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come forth from her;' and it came forth the same hour.
Abhombi naha kwa magono ghamehele, lakini Paulo akajha adadili ni litendo e'lu, ageuki kunyuma ni kun'jobhela pepo'”Nikuamuru kwa lihina lya Yesu umhokayi mugati mwa muene.” Niliene likabhoka ni kundeka mara moja.
19 And her masters having seen that the hope of their employment was gone, having caught Paul and Silas, drew [them] to the market-place, unto the rulers,
Mabwana bha muene bho bhabhuene jha kujha tumaini lya faida jha bhene libhokili, bhabhakamuili Paulo ni Sila ni kubhabunisya mu soko mbele jha bhenye mamlaka.
20 and having brought them to the magistrates, they said, 'These men do exceedingly trouble our city, being Jews;
Bho bhabhafikisi kwa makuhakimu bhakajobha, “Bhagosi abha Bhayahudi na bhisababisya ghasia mbaha mu mji bhwitu.
21 and they proclaim customs that are not lawful for us to receive nor to do, being Romans.'
Bhimanyisya mambo ambagho sio sheria tete kughapokela wala kughakesya kama Warumi.”
22 And the multitude rose up together against them, and the magistrates having torn their garments from them, were commanding to beat [them] with rods,
Umati ukabhajhinukila kinyume, Paulo ni Sila, mahakimu bharanuli nghobho sya bhene ni kubhafula ni kuamuru bhatobhibhwayi fiboko.
23 many blows also having laid upon them, they cast them to prison, having given charge to the jailor to keep them safely,
Baada jha kubhatobha fiboko fimehele, bhakabhasopa mu ligereza ni kuamuru askari bha gereza kubhalenda kinofu.
24 who such a charge having received, did put them to the inner prison, and their feet made fast in the stocks.
Baada jha kupokela amri ejhu, askari bha gereza abhasopili mu kichumba kya mugati mu gereza ni kubhakonga magolo gha bhene pa sehemu pa bhabhekibhu.
25 And at midnight Paul and Silas praying, were singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were hearing them,
Bwakati wa kiru kya manane Paulo ni Sila bhakajha bhisoka ni kujhemba nyembu sya kunsifu K'yara, khoni bhafungwa bhangi bhakajha bhipelekesya.
26 and suddenly a great earthquake came, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken, opened also presently were all the doors, and of all — the bands were loosed;
Ghafla kwatokili litetemeko libhaha ni misingi ghya gereza ghyatikisiki, miliangu ghya gereza ghikadenduka, ni minyororo ghya bhafungwa bhoha jhalegesibhu.
27 and the jailor having come out of sleep, and having seen the doors of the prison open, having drawn a sword, was about to kill himself, supposing the prisoners to be fled,
Mlinzi ghwa gereza akajhumuka kuhoma mulogono ni kubhona miliangu ghioha ghya gereza jhidendulibhu; hivyo akatola upanga bhwa muene maana alondeghe kwikoma kwandabha afikilireghe bhafungwa bhoha bhatoniiki.
28 and Paul cried out with a loud voice, saying, 'Thou mayest not do thyself any harm, for we are all here.'
Lakini Paulo akapiga kelele kwa sauti mbaha, akajobha, “Usikidhuru kwa ndabha twebhoha tujhele mahali apa.
29 And, having asked for a light, he sprang in, and trembling he fell down before Paul and Silas,
Mlinzi ghwa gereza akas'oka taa siletibhwayi ni kujhingila mugati mu gereza manyata, akajha itetemeka ni kutila akabhabinila Paulo ni Sila,
30 and having brought them forth, said, 'Sirs, what must I do — that I may be saved?'
ni kubhapisya nje jha gereza ni kujobha, “Bhaheshimibhwa, niketakiki ili nibhweijhi kuokoka?
31 and they said, 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved — thou and thy house;'
Na bhene bhakan'jobhela, “Umwamini ajhi Bwana Yesu nabhi wibetekuokoka pamonga ni nyumba jha jhobhi.”
32 and they spake to him the word of the Lord, and to all those in his household;
Bhajobhi lilobhi lya Bwana kwa muene pamonga ni bhanu bhoha bha pa nyumba jha muene.
33 and having taken them, in that hour of the night, he did bathe [them] from the blows, and was baptized, himself and all his presently,
Mlinzi ghwa gereza akabhatola ke'ru khela ni kubhasambisya sehemu sya bhalamele, muene pamonga ni bhanu bha panyumba pa muene. Mara bhakabatisibhwa.
34 having brought them also into his house, he set food before [them], and was glad with all the household, he having believed in God.
Akabhaleta Paulo ni Sila kunyumba jha muene ni kubhatengela kyakulya. Ni muene ajhele ni furaha mbaha pamonga ni bhanu bha panyumba jha muene kwandabha bhamwamini K'yara.
35 And day having come, the magistrates sent the rod-bearers, saying, 'Let those men go;'
Bho jhilikili pamusi, mahakimu bhatumili ujumbe kwa mlinzi jhola ghwa gereza bhakajobha, “Bharuhusu ajhi bhanu bhala bhalotayi.”
36 and the jailor told these words unto Paul — 'The magistrates have sent, that ye may be let go; now, therefore, having gone forth go on in peace;'
Mlinzi ghwa gereza akan'julisha Paulo juu jha malobhi aghu jha kujha, “Mahakimu bhaghisi ujumbe kujha nibharuhusuajhi mulotayi: hivyo mupitayi kwibhala na mulotayi kwa amani.
37 and Paul said to them, 'Having beaten us publicly uncondemned — men, Romans being — they did cast [us] to prison, and now privately do they cast us forth! why no! but having come themselves, let them bring us forth.'
Lakini Paulo akabhajobhela, “Bhatutobhili hadharani, bhanu ambabho ndo Bharumi bila kutuhukumu na bhaamuili kutusopa mu ligereza; halafu henu bhilonda kutupisya kwa siri? Lepi jhibhwesekana lepi, bhene bhahidayi kutupisya mahali apa.”
38 And the rod-bearers told to the magistrates these sayings, and they were afraid, having heard that they are Romans,
Bhalinzi bhakabhajulisya mahakimu juu jha malobhi aghu, mahakimu bhatilili sana bhobhamanyili kujha Paulo ni Sila ndo Bharumi.
39 and having come, they besought them, and having brought [them] forth, they were asking [them] to go forth from the city;
Mahakimu bhakahida ni kubhasihi bhapitayi, na bhobhabhapisili kwibhala pa gereza, bhabhesokili Paulo ni Sila bhakapita kwibhala kubhoka mu mji obhu.
40 and they, having gone forth out of the prison, entered into [the house of] Lydia, and having seen the brethren, they comforted them, and went forth.
Kwa hiyo Paulo ni Sila bhakapita kwibhala pa gereza bhakahida kunyumba jha Lidia. Paulo ni Sila bho bha mbwene ndogo bhabhi bhabhapelimu muoyo ni kisha kubhoka mu mji obhu.
