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,
A Pauli gubhaishe ku shilambo sha Debhe na ku Lishitila, kweneko bhatendaga tama bhaajiganywa bhamo bhashemwa a Timoteo. Anyinabhabho nabhalabho pubhaaliji bhaakulupalila na pubahaaliji Bhayaudi, ikabheje ainabhabho pubhaaliji Bhagiliki.
2 who was well testified to by the brethren in Lystra and Iconium;
A Timoteo bhatendaga shuma uguja ku bhakilishitu bhatamanganaga ku Lishitila na ku Ikonio.
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.
A Pauli gubhapinjile bhalongane na a Timoteo, kwa nneyo gubhaatajile unyago. Bhashinkutenda nneyo kwa ligongo lya Bhayaudi bhatamanganaga jene mmbali jila bhashinkumumanyanga kuti a Timoteo ainabhabho pubhaaliji Bhagiliki.
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,
Pubhapitanganaga muilambo mula, a Pauli na a Timoteo bhashinkwapanganga bhandunji malajilo gakopweshe ku Yelushalemu kwa ashimitume bha a Yeshu na bhanangulungwa, gubhaakomelesheyenje bhagatolelelanje.
5 then, indeed, were the assemblies established in the faith, and were abounding in number every day;
Kwa nneyo bhandunji bha yene nyumba ya jujila Nnungu ila gubhapundilenje kwiishimilika nngulupai na bhandunji bha kwiilunda bhakujenjeshekangaga.
6 and having gone through Phrygia and the region of Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia,
A Pauli na ashajabhonji gubhapitilenje mmbali ya ku Piligia na ku Galatia, pabha Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo ashinkwaibhililanga bhanalunguyanje gwene ntengago muilambo ya ku Ashiya.
7 having gone toward Mysia, they were trying to go on toward Bithynia, and the Spirit did not suffer them,
Bhakaikangananjeje mu mpika gwa shilambo sha Mishia, gubhalinjilenje kujinjila kushilambo sha ku Bhishinia, ikabheje Mbumu jwa a Yeshu gwabhalimbiyenje.
8 and having passed by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
Bhai, gubhapitilenje ku Mishia, gubhaelelenje mpaka ku Toloa.
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;' —
Shilo, a Pauli gubhaagamile, gubhammweni mundu jumo jwa ku Makedonia ajimi alikwaajuga “Nnjomboshe nnjiye ku bhandunji bha ku Makedonia kuntujangute.”
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,
Shangupe a Pauli bhakaagamileje nneyo, twangakabha gutupanganishe kwenda ku Makedonia, tulikumumanya kuti a Nnungu bhashikutushema tukaalungushiyanje Ngani ja Mmbone.
11 having set sail, therefore, from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, on the morrow also to Neapolis,
Tukajabhuleje ku Toloa, gutukwelile meli kwenda ku Shamotalake na malabhi gakwe gutuishe ku 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,
Tukajabhuleje penepo, gutuishe mpaka ku Pilipi shilambo sha ku Makedonia, shilambo shikulungwa sha Bhaloma jene mmbali jila. Gutulonjeye shene shilambosho mobha gowepe.
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,
Lyubha lya Pumulila gutukopweshe palanga shilambo, gutupite nnyenje lushi nkuloleya pa jujila Nnungu, gututemi nkukunguluka na bhanabhakongwe bhaimenenje penepo.
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;
Munkumbi gwa bhatupilikanishiyangaga bhala, bhashinkupagwa bhakongwe bhamo bhaajogopaga a Nnungu bhashemwaga a Lidia, bha shilambo sha ku Tiatila bhaaliji na upindi gwa nngubho ya galama. Bhakulungwa bhashinkwaugulila ntima, bhagaposhele malobhe gubhabheleketaga a Pauli.
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.
Bhakabhatishweje bhenebho na bhandunji bha nnyumba jabho, gubhatushemile kungwabho bhalinkuti, “Ibhaga kweli nnjibhweninji ngulupai jangu ku Bhakulungwa, nnjiangananje kumui kuntamangananje.” Gubhatushondelesheye kwa kaje.
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,
Lyubha limo tulikwenda pa kwaajujila a Nnnugu, gutuimene naka mwali jumo akwete lioka lya londola. Jwene mwalijo atendaga kwaapatilanga mmbiya yaigwinji ashinangologwe kwa liengo lyakwe lya londola.
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;'
Bhai, mwali jula gwabhakagwile a Pauli na uwe, alijobhela alinkuti, “Abha bhandunjibha nibhaakamula maengo bha a Nnungu bha kunnungu. Bhanakungulushilanga mpanda gwa patila ntapulo!”
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.
Gwatendile nneyo kwa mobha gamagwinji mpaka lyubha limo a Pauli guyaashimile, gubhatendebhwishe gubhammalanjile lioka jula, “Ngunakuamulisha kwa lina lya a Yeshu Kilishitu gunshoshe aju!” Shangupe lioka jula gwanshoshile mwali jula.
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,
Ashinangologwe mwali jula bhakabhonanjeje ngulupai jabhonji jaapatilangaga mmbiya jiobhile, gubhaakamwilenje a Pauli na a Shila, nikwaakwakwatilanga mpaka kubhaushiyanga indu kubhakulungwanji bha shilambo.
20 and having brought them to the magistrates, they said, 'These men do exceedingly trouble our city, being Jews;
Gubhaalugwilenje ku bhaaukumulanga bhalinkutinji, “Abha bhandunjibha Bhayaudi, na bhananyatyanga shilambo shetu.
21 and they proclaim customs that are not lawful for us to receive nor to do, being Romans.'
Bhanalunguyanga ngani ja ikubho ikaapinjikwa kuiposhela uwe wala kuikagula, pabha uwe tu Bhaloma.”
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,
Lugwinjili lowe lwa bhandu gulwaajendelenje kukwakomanga a Pauli na a Shila, nabhalabhonji bhaaukumulanga gubhaulilenje ngubho yabhonji kwa mashili, gubhaamulishenje bhakomwanje ibhoko.
23 many blows also having laid upon them, they cast them to prison, having given charge to the jailor to keep them safely,
Bhakakomwanjeje kwa kaje gubhaugalilwenje nnigelesha, gubhannajilenje linjola jwa ligelesha kubhika ulinda gwa kajekaje.
24 who such a charge having received, did put them to the inner prison, and their feet made fast in the stocks.
Linjolajo akapateje gene malajilogo, gwabhaugalilenje a Pauli na a Shila kati ja nkati ligelesha lila bhali bhaatabhilenje makongono na makono nnipoto.
25 And at midnight Paul and Silas praying, were singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were hearing them,
Tome na pakati shilo a Pauli na a Shila bhatendaga juganga Nnungu akuno bhalijimbanga nyimbo ya kwainiya, bhaatabhwanga bhananji bhalikwaapilikanishiyanga.
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;
Shangupe, litaka likutetemelaga kwa jogoya na mubhaolelenje makumba ga lijumba lya ligeleshalila mukutenganyikaga, shangupe milango jowe ja ligelesha lila jikuugukaga na mindondolo jibhatabhilwenje jila jikugopokaga.
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,
Linjola jwa ulinda jula akajumusheje nikujibhona milango ja ligelesha jiugwishe, gwaganishiye kuti bhaatabhwanga bhowe bhabhutekenje, kwa nneyo gwaolomwele upanga gwakwe nkupinga aibhulaje.
28 and Paul cried out with a loud voice, saying, 'Thou mayest not do thyself any harm, for we are all here.'
Ikabheje a Pauli gubhautiye lilobhe bhalinkuti, “Unaipoteshe, pabha uwe tubhowe tupali pano.”
29 And, having asked for a light, he sprang in, and trembling he fell down before Paul and Silas,
Gwashemiye kandili, jikaisheje linjola jula gwabhutushile nkati, gwaigwishiye pamakongono ga a Pauli na a Shila akuno alitetemela kwa jogopa.
30 and having brought them forth, said, 'Sirs, what must I do — that I may be saved?'
Kungai gwabhakopoyenje palanga, nigwashite, “Ndende bhuli niitapule?”
31 and they said, 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved — thou and thy house;'
Gubhannjangwilenje, “Gwaakulupalile a Yeshu shiutapulwe ugwe na likaja lyako.”
32 and they spake to him the word of the Lord, and to all those in his household;
Bhai, gubhannungushiyenje lilobhe lya Bhakulungwa jwenejo na bhandunji bhowe bha likaja lyakwe.
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,
Linjola jula gwabhatolilenje malanga ga shilo pegala gwabhaukengenje ilonda yabhonji, kungai jwenejo na bhandunji bha nnyumba jakwe bhowe gubhabhatishwenje gwanakamope.
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.
Gwabhapelekenje a Pauli na a Shila kunngwakwe, gwabhapelenje shalya. Jwalakwe na bhandunji bha nnyumba jakwe gubhainonyelenje, pabha nnaino bhaakulupalilenje a Nnungu.
35 And day having come, the magistrates sent the rod-bearers, saying, 'Let those men go;'
Kukasheje lyamba, bhaukumulanga gubhaatumilenje bhakulungwanji bha manjola bhalinkutinji, “Nkaagopolanje bhandunji bhala bhajendangane.”
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;'
Linjola jula akwaalugulilaga a Pauli jene nganijo alinkuti. “Bhaukumulanga bhashitumanga ntenga nkupinga nngopolwanje. Bhai, nnaino nkopokangane nnjendangane kwa ulele.”
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.'
Ikabheje a Pauli gubhannjangwile, “Bhashikutukomanga ibhoko palugwinjili gwangali kutuukumula na uwe Tubhaloma. Na kabhili bhashikutuugalilanga nnigelesha na nnaino bhanapinganga kutugopolanga kwa nng'iyo! Nngabha nneyo, ikabheje bhajiyangananje ashaayene kubhatukopoyanje.”
38 And the rod-bearers told to the magistrates these sayings, and they were afraid, having heard that they are Romans,
Bhakulungwanji bha manjola gubhapitenje kwaalugulilanga bhaukumulanga jene nganijo, bhakapilikananjeje kuti a Pauli na a Shila ni Bhaloma, gubhajogopenje.
39 and having come, they besought them, and having brought [them] forth, they were asking [them] to go forth from the city;
Kwa nneyo, gubhapite kwaagwilanga pa makongono, bhakaakopoyanjeje palanga gubhaajujilenje bhashokangananje pa shilambo pala.
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.
A Pauli na a Shila gubhakopokenje nnigelesha, gubhapitengenenje kumui kwa a Lidia. Kweneko gubhaimenenje na bhakilishitu na bhakaataganjeje ntima gubhajabhulenje.
