Atũmwo 18
1 Thuutha ũcio, Paũlũ akiuma Athene agĩthiĩ Korinitho.
And after (now *k*) these things having departed (*k*) (Paul *K*) from Athens he came to Corinth,
2 Aakinya kũu agĩkora Mũyahudi wetagwo Akula, mũndũ waciarĩirwo Ponto, na aakoretwo oka kuuma Italia marĩ na mũtumia wake Pirisila, tondũ Kilaudio nĩathanĩte Ayahudi othe moime Roma. Nake Paũlũ agĩthiĩ kũmona,
And having found a certain Jew named Aquila, of Pontus a native, recently having come from Italy, and Priscilla wife of him, because of (to have commanded *NK(o)*) Claudius to depart all the Jews (out of *N(k)O*) Rome, he came to them;
3 na tondũ Paũlũ aarĩ mũtumi wa hema o tao-rĩ, agĩikarania na akĩrutithania wĩra nao.
and due to of the same trade being he was staying with them and (he was working; *NK(O)*) they were for tentmakers (by trade; *N(k)O*)
4 O mũthenya wa Thabatũ nĩaheanaga ũhoro thunagogi-inĩ, akĩgeria kũiguithia Ayahudi na Ayunani.
he was reasoning now in the synagogue on every Sabbath, was persuading both Jews and Greeks.
5 Rĩrĩa Sila na Timotheo mookire kuuma Makedonia, Paũlũ akĩĩrutĩra gũkorwo akĩhunjia mahinda mothe, na akoimbũragĩra Ayahudi atĩ Jesũ nĩwe Kristũ.
When now came down from Macedonia both Silas and Timothy, was occupied with the (word *N(K)O*) Paul earnestly testifying to the Jews to be the Christ Jesus.
6 No rĩrĩa Ayahudi maakararirie Paũlũ na makĩmũruma, akĩribariba nguo ciake nĩ ũndũ wa kũngʼũrĩka na akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thakame yanyu ĩromũcookerera! Niĩ ndirĩ ũndũ ingĩũrio nĩ ũndũ wanyu. Kuuma rĩu ngũcooka gũthiĩ kũrĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ.”
When are opposing however they and denigrating [him], having shaken out the garments he said to them; The blood of You [be] upon the head of you, clean I myself [am]; From now on to the Gentiles I will go.
7 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Paũlũ akiuma kũu thunagogi-inĩ, agĩthiĩ kwa mũndũ wetagwo Titio Jusito, warĩ mũhooi Ngai, nayo nyũmba yake yariganĩtie na thunagogi.
And having departed from there (he entered *N(k)O*) to [the] house of a certain one named (Titius *N(O)*) Justus worshiping the God, of whom the house was adjoining to the synagogue.
8 Nake Kirisipo, ũrĩa warĩ mũtongoria wa thunagogi, agĩĩtĩkia Mwathani hamwe na nyũmba yake yothe; na andũ aingĩ a Korinitho arĩa maamũiguire akĩaria magĩĩtĩkia na makĩbatithio.
Crispus now the ruler of the synagogue believed in the Lord with all the household of him, And many of the Corinthians hearing were believing and were baptized.
9 Ũtukũ ũmwe Mwathani akĩĩra Paũlũ na kĩoneki atĩrĩ, “Ndũkae gwĩtigĩra; thiĩ na mbere na kũheana ũhoro, na ndũgaakire.
Said now the Lord in [the] night through a vision to Paul; Not do fear but do continue speaking and not may be silent,
10 Nĩgũkorwo ndĩ hamwe nawe, na gũtirĩ mũndũ ũgũgũtharĩkĩra agwĩke ũũru, tondũ ndĩ na andũ aingĩ gũkũ itũũra-inĩ rĩĩrĩ.”
because I myself am with you, and no [one] will lay a hand on you to harm you; because people there is to me many in city this;
11 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Paũlũ agĩikara kũu mwaka ũmwe na nuthu, akĩmarutaga kiugo kĩa Ngai.
He remained (now *N(k)O*) a year and months six teaching among them the word of God.
12 Rĩrĩa Galio aarĩ barũthi wa Akaia, Ayahudi makĩnyiitana magĩtharĩkĩra Paũlũ na makĩmũtwara igooti-inĩ.
When Gallio however proconsul being of Achaia rose up with one accord the Jews against Paul and led him to the judgment seat,
13 Makiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ araringĩrĩria andũ kũhooya Ngai na njĩra ĩrĩa ĩreganĩte na watho.”
saying that Contrary to the law persuades this [man] men to worship God.
14 Na rĩrĩa Paũlũ endaga kwaria, Galio akĩĩra Ayahudi atĩrĩ, “Korwo inyuĩ Ayahudi mũrateta nĩ ũndũ wa ũndũ mũũru kana ngero njũru-rĩ, nĩ hangĩrĩ na gĩtũmi gĩa kũmũthikĩrĩria inyuĩ.
When is being about to now Paul to open [his] mouth said Gallio to the Jews; If indeed (therefore *K*) it was unrighteousness some or crime wicked, O Jews, according to reason would (I have endured with *N(k)O*) you;
15 No kuona atĩ nĩ ũhoro wa ciũria ikoniĩ ciugo na marĩĩtwa na watho wanyu inyuĩ ene-rĩ, menyai ũrĩa mũgwĩka. Niĩ ndigũtuĩka mũtui ciira wa maũndũ ta macio.”
if however (questions *N(K)O*) it is about a word and names and law of yours, you will behold [to it] yourselves; a judge (for *k*) I myself of these things not resolve to be.
16 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akiuga marutũrũrwo kuuma igooti-inĩ.
And he drove them from the judgment seat.
17 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Ayahudi acio othe makĩgarũrũkĩra Sosithene mũtongoria wa thunagogi, na makĩmũhũũrĩra hau mbere ya igooti. No Galio ndaigana kũrũmbũyania na ũhoro ũcio o na atĩa.
Having seized then all [of them] (the Greeks *K*) Sosthenes the ruler of the synagogue they were beating [him] before the judgment seat; And no [thing] about these things to Gallio (was concerning. *NK(O)*)
18 Paũlũ nĩaikarire kũu Korinitho kwa ihinda. Agĩcooka agĩtiga ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ kuo, akĩhaica marikabu agĩthiĩ Suriata, marĩ hamwe na Pirisila na Akula. Atanahaica marikabu, aambire akĩenjwo njuĩrĩ yake arĩ kũu Kenikirea, tondũ wa mwĩhĩtwa eehĩtĩte.
Now Paul more having remained days many, of the brothers having taken leave he was sailing away to Syria — and with him Priscilla and Aquila — having shaved in Cenchrea the head; he had for a vow.
19 Nao maakinya Efeso, Paũlũ agĩtiga Pirisila na Akula kuo. We mwene agĩtoonya thunagogi na akĩaranĩria na Ayahudi.
(They came *N(K)O*) now to Ephesus; and them and them left there, He himself then having entered into the synagogue (he reasoned *N(k)O*) with the Jews.
20 Nao makĩmũũria aikaranganie nao kuo, nowe akĩrega.
When are asking now they for [him] a longer time to remain (with them *k*) not he did consent;
21 No rĩrĩa oimaga kuo, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Aakorwo nĩ wendi wa Ngai, nĩndĩrĩcooka.” Nake akĩhaica marikabu akiuma Efeso.
but (having taken leave *N(k)O*) (and *no*) (to them *k*) having said (necessary *KO*) (me by all means the feast which is coming to do into Jerusalem; *K*) Again (now *k*) I will return to you God willing, (and *k*) he sailed from Ephesus.
22 Rĩrĩa aakinyire Kaisarea, akĩambata agĩthiĩ kũgeithia Kanitha, agĩcooka agĩikũrũka agĩthiĩ nginya Antiokia.
and having landed at Caesarea, having gone up and having greeted the church he went down to Antioch;
23 Na thuutha wa Paũlũ gũikaranga kũu Antiokia, akiuma kuo, na agĩthiĩ kũndũ na kũndũ bũrũri wothe wa Galatia na Firigia, akĩũmagĩrĩria arutwo othe.
And having stayed time some he went forth passing through successively the Galatian region and Phrygia, (strengthening *NK(o)*) all the disciples.
24 O ihinda-inĩ rĩu, Mũyahudi wetagwo Apolo, waciarĩirwo Alekisanderia, agĩũka Efeso. Aarĩ mũndũ mũthomu, na aarĩ na ũũgĩ mũingĩ mũno wa Maandĩko.
A Jew now certain Apollos named, of Alexandria a native, a man eloquent, came to Ephesus mighty being in the Scriptures.
25 Nĩarutĩtwo na njĩra ĩrĩa ya Mwathani, na akaaragia na kĩyo kĩnene, na akarutanaga ũhoro wa Jesũ atekũhĩtia, o na gũtuĩka ũbatithio ũrĩa ooĩ warĩ o wa Johana.
He was instructed [in] the way of the Lord, And being fervent in spirit he was speaking and he was teaching earnestly the [things] concerning (Jesus *N(K)O*) knowing only the baptism of John;
26 Nake akĩambĩrĩria kwaria na ũcamba kũu thunagogi-inĩ. Rĩrĩa Pirisila na Akula maamũiguire akĩaria, makĩmũnyiita ũgeni kwao mũciĩ na makĩmũtaarĩria ũhoro wa njĩra ya Ngai wega makĩria.
He then began to speak boldly in the synagogue. Having heard however him Priscilla and Aquila they took to [them] him and more accurately to him they expounded the way of God.
27 Na rĩrĩa Apolo eendaga gũthiĩ Akaia, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ makĩmũũmĩrĩria na makĩandĩkĩra arutwo akuo marũa makĩmeera mamwamũkĩre. Na aakinya kuo agĩtuĩka ũteithio mũnene kũrĩ andũ arĩa meetĩkĩtie nĩ ũndũ wa wega wa Ngai.
When is resolving then he to pass through into Achaia, having encouraged [him] the brothers wrote to the disciples to welcome him; who having arrived he helped greatly those having believed through grace;
28 Nĩgũkorwo arĩ na ũhoti mũingĩ, nĩahootire Ayahudi biũ mbere ya andũ othe, akĩonanagia kuuma kũrĩ Maandĩko atĩ Jesũ nĩwe Kristũ.
Powerfully for the Jews he was refuting publicly showing through the Scriptures to be the Christ Jesus.
