Atũmwo 14
1 Na rĩrĩ, Paũlũ na Baranaba marĩ kũu Ikonia, magĩtoonya thunagogi ya Ayahudi o ta mũtugo. Marĩ kũu makĩaria na ũhoti mũingĩ mũno o nginya Ayahudi aingĩ na andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ magĩĩtĩkia.
And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke that a great multitude of the Jews and Greeks believed.
2 No Ayahudi arĩa maaregire gwĩtĩkia nĩmathogothire andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ, makĩmathũkia meciiria nĩgeetha mookĩrĩre ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ.
But the unbelieving Jews excited and embittered the minds of the Gentiles against the brethren.
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Paũlũ na Baranaba magĩikara kũu ihinda iraaya, makĩaria marĩ na ũcamba nĩ ũndũ wa Mwathani, o we wekĩrire ndũmĩrĩri ya wega wake hinya na ũndũ wa kũmahotithia kũringa ciama na morirũ.
Therefore, they continued a long time, and spoke boldly in the Lord, who gave testimony to the word of his grace, by granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4 Andũ a itũũra rĩu inene makĩgayũkana; amwe magĩĩtĩkania na Ayahudi, nao arĩa angĩ magĩĩtĩkania na atũmwo.
But the multitude of the city were divided; and some were with the Jews, and some with the apostles.
5 Nĩ kwarĩ na ndundu yathugundĩtwo nĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ na Ayahudi, hamwe na atongoria ao, nĩguo mameeke ũũru, na mamahũũre na mahiga nyuguto.
But when there was a violent purpose on the part of the Gentiles and of the Jews, with their rulers, to outrage and to stone them,
6 No nao makĩmenya ũhoro ũcio, na makĩũrĩra matũũra manene ma bũrũri wa Likaonia, na nĩmo Lisitera, na Deribe, o na bũrũri ũrĩa wagũthiũrũrũkĩirie,
being aware of it, they fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and to the region round about,
7 kũrĩa maathiire na mbere kũhunjia ũhoro mwega.
and there they preached the gospel.
8 Nakuo kũu Lisitera nĩ kwarĩ mũndũ warĩ mwonju magũrũ, na aatũũrĩte arĩ mwonju kuuma gũciarwo na ndetwarĩte na magũrũ o narĩ.
And there was a certain man in Lystra, without strength in his feet, who sat, for he was a cripple from his mother’s womb, and had never walked.
9 Nake agĩthikĩrĩria Paũlũ akĩaria. Paũlũ aamũrora, akĩona atĩ aarĩ na wĩtĩkio wa kũhonio,
This man heard Paul speak, who, looking earnestly on him, and seeing that he had faith to be saved,
10 akĩmwĩta na mũgambo mũnene, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Rũgama na magũrũ maku!” Na o hĩndĩ ĩyo, mũndũ ũcio akĩrũga na igũrũ, akĩambĩrĩria gwĩtwara.
said, with a loud voice: Stand erect upon your feet. And he leaped and walked.
11 Rĩrĩa gĩkundi kĩu kĩa andũ kĩonire ũrĩa Paũlũ eekĩte, gĩkĩanĩrĩra na rũthiomi rwa Likaonia gĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Ngai nĩciikũrũkĩte kũrĩ ithuĩ itariĩ ta andũ!”
When the multitude saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice, and said, in the Lycaonian language: The Gods have come down to us in the likeness of men.
12 Magĩĩta Baranaba Zeu, nake Paũlũ makĩmwĩta Herime tondũ nĩwe warĩ mwaria ũrĩa mũnene.
And they called Barnabas, Jupiter, and Paul, Mercury, for he was the chief speaker.
13 Mũthĩnjĩri-ngai ya Zeu, ũrĩa hekarũ yake yarĩ o hau nja ya itũũra, akĩrehe ndegwa na mahũa maatumĩtwo ta thũmbĩ hau kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra inene, tondũ we na gĩkundi kĩu kĩa andũ nĩmendaga kũmarutĩra magongona.
Then the priest of Jupiter, whose temple was before the city, having brought bulls and garlands to the entrance, intended to offer sacrifice, with the multitudes.
14 No rĩrĩa atũmwo acio Baranaba na Paũlũ maaiguire ũguo, magĩtembũranga nguo ciao, makĩhanyũka, magĩtoonya kũrĩ kĩrĩndĩ, makĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ,
But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of it, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the multitude, crying out,
15 “Andũ aya, mũreka ũguo nĩkĩ? Ithuĩ tũrĩ o andũ ta inyuĩ. Tũmũreheire ũhoro mwega, wa kũmwĩra mũgarũrũke mũtigane na maũndũ marĩa matarĩ kĩene, mũcookerere Ngai ũrĩa ũtũũraga muoyo, o we ũrĩa wombire igũrũ na thĩ na iria na indo ciothe iria irĩ kuo.
and saying: Men, why are you doing these things? We also are human beings, with passions like your own, and we preach the gospel to you, that you may turn from these vanities to the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things that are in them;
16 Tene, nĩarekereirie ndũrĩrĩ ciothe ithiiage na mĩthiĩre yacio nyene,
who, in past generations, permitted all the nations to walk in their own ways;
17 no ndaigana gwĩtiga atarĩ na ũira wa kuonania atĩ arĩ kuo: nĩamuonetie ũtugi na ũndũ wa kũmuurĩria mbura yumĩte igũrũ na kũmũhe magetha hĩndĩ ya kĩmera; nĩamũheaga irio nyingĩ na akaiyũria ngoro cianyu na gĩkeno.”
and yet he did not leave himself without testimony, doing good, and giving you rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.
18 No o na maarĩtie ciugo icio, nĩ maarĩ na wĩra mũritũ wa kũgiria gĩkundi kĩu kĩa andũ kĩmarutĩre igongona.
And with these words they hardly restrained the multitudes from offering sacrifice to them.
19 Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo Ayahudi angĩ magĩũka moimĩte Antiokia na Ikonia, nao makĩguucĩrĩria gĩkundi kĩu kĩa andũ, gĩgĩcooka mwena wao. Gĩkundi kĩu gĩkĩhũũra Paũlũ na mahiga nyuguto, na gĩkĩmũkururia, gĩkĩmũruta nja ya itũũra, gĩĩciirĩtie nĩ mũkuũ.
Then came thither, from Antioch and Iconium, Jews, who persuaded the multitudes; and having stoned Paul, they dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.
20 No arutwo maarĩkia kũmũrigiicĩria, agĩũkĩra agĩcooka itũũra-inĩ. Mũthenya ũcio ũngĩ warũmĩrĩire, we na Baranaba makiuma kũu magĩthiĩ Deribe.
But while the disciples were standing around him, he arose, and went into the city. And on the next day, he departed with Barnabas to Derbe;
21 Paũlũ wa Baranaba makĩhunjia ũhoro mwega itũũra-inĩ rĩu na magĩtũma andũ aingĩ matuĩke arutwo. Magĩcooka makĩhũndũka magĩthiĩ Lisitera, na Ikonia, na Antiokia,
and when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch,
22 magĩĩkagĩra arutwo hinya na kũmomĩrĩria nĩgeetha matũũre marũmĩtie wĩtĩkio. Makameeraga atĩrĩ, “No nginya ithuĩ tũgerere mathĩĩna-inĩ maingĩ nĩguo tũtoonye ũthamaki-inĩ wa Ngai.”
strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and saying, that through many afflictions we mast enter the kingdom of God.
23 Paũlũ na Baranaba makĩmaamũrĩra athuuri a kanitha na makĩhooya Ngai mehingĩte kũrĩa irio, makĩmaneana kũrĩ Mwathani, o we ũrĩa meehokete.
And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.
24 Thuutha wa gũtuĩkanĩria Pisidia, magĩkinya Pamufilia,
And having passed through Pisidia, they came into Pamphylia;
25 na maarĩkia kũhunjia kiugo kũu Periga, magĩikũrũka magĩthiĩ Atalia.
and when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia:
26 Moima Atalia makĩhaica marikabu, magĩcooka Antiokia, o kũrĩa maahoeirwo wega wa Ngai mbere nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra ũrĩa maarĩkĩtie kũruta.
thence they sailed to Antioch, from which place they had been commended to the grace of God, for the work which they had accomplished.
27 Maakinya kũu magĩcookanĩrĩria andũ a kanitha hamwe, makĩmeera ũrĩa wothe Ngai ekĩte agereire harĩo na ũrĩa aahingũrĩire andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ mũrango wa gwĩtĩkia.
And having come and called together the church, they reported all that God had done with them, and that he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.
28 Nao magĩikara na arutwo kũu ihinda iraaya.
And they continued a long time with the disciples.
