Atũmwo 20
1 Na rĩrĩ, ngũĩ ĩyo yarĩkia gũthira, Paũlũ agĩtũmanĩra arutwo, na aarĩkia kũmomĩrĩria, akĩmoigĩra ũhoro agĩthiĩ Makedonia.
And after the tumult had subsided, Paul called the disciples to him, and comforted them, and kissed them, and departed, and went into Macedonia.
2 Agĩtuĩkanĩria mĩena ya kuo, akĩaragia ciugo nyingĩ cia kũũmĩrĩria andũ, na marigĩrĩrio agĩkinya bũrũri wa Ũyunani,
And when he had travelled over those regions, and had comforted them with many discourses, he proceeded to the country of Greece.
3 kũrĩa aaikarire mĩeri ĩtatũ. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Paũlũ eeharagĩria kũhaica marikabu athiĩ Suriata, agĩtua itua gũcookera Makedonia, tondũ Ayahudi nĩmaciirĩire kũmwĩka ũũru.
And he was there three months. And the Jews formed a plot against him, when he was about to go to Syria: and he contemplated returning to Macedonia.
4 Paũlũ aathiire marĩ hamwe na Sopatiro mũrũ wa Puro, mũndũ wa kuuma Berea, na Arisitariko, na Sekundo, andũ a kuuma Thesalonike, na Gayo wa kuuma Deribe, o hamwe na Timotheo, ningĩ na Tikiko, na Tirofimo, andũ a kuuma bũrũri wa Asia.
And there departed with him, as far as Asia, Sopater of the city Berea, and Aristarchus and Secundus who were of Thessalonica, and Gaius who was of the city of Derbe, and Timothy of Lystra, and of Asia Tychicus and Trophimus.
5 Andũ acio magĩthiĩ mbere magĩtweterera kũu Teroa.
these proceeded on before us, and waited for us at Troas.
6 No ithuĩ tũkĩhaica marikabu, tũkiuma Filipi thuutha wa Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia, na thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩtano, tũgĩkora andũ arĩa angĩ kũu Teroa, nakuo tũgĩikara mĩthenya mũgwanja.
And we departed from Philippi, a city of the Macedonians, after the days of unleavened bread; and proceeded by water and arrived at Troas in five days, and remained there seven days.
7 Mũthenya wa mbere wa kiumia nĩtwagomanire hamwe nĩguo twenyũre mũgate. Paũlũ akĩarĩria andũ, na tondũ nĩatanyĩte gũthiĩ mũthenya ũcio warũmĩrĩire-rĩ, agĩthiĩ na mbere kwaria nginya ũtukũ gatagatĩ.
And on the first day of the week, when we assembled to break the eucharist, Paul discoursed with them, because he was to depart the next day; and he continued his discourse till midnight.
8 Nĩ kwarĩ na matawa maingĩ maakanaga kũu nyũmba ya igũrũ kũrĩa twagomanĩte.
And there were many lamps burning in the chamber where we were assembled.
9 Nake mwanake wetagwo Eutiko aikarĩte ndirica-inĩ, na o ũrĩa Paũlũ aathiaga na mbere na kwaria-rĩ, noguo mwanake ũcio akĩragĩrĩria gũtoorio nĩ toro. Rĩrĩa aakomire, akĩgũa thĩ kuuma ngoroba ya gatatũ nao mamuoya magĩkora nĩ mũkuũ.
And a young man named Eutychus was sitting in a window and listening. And while Paul prolonged his discourse, he sunk into a deep sleep; and, in his sleep, he fell from the third loft, and was taken up as dead.
10 Paũlũ agĩikũrũka, agĩkomera mwanake ũcio akĩmũkumbatĩria akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Tigai kũmaka, arĩ muoyo!”
And Paul went down, and bent over him and embraced him, and said: Be not agitated, for his soul is in him.
11 Agĩcooka akĩambata nyũmba ya igũrũ, akĩenyũra mũgate na akĩrĩa. Na thuutha wa kũmaarĩria nginya gũgĩkĩa-rĩ, akiuma kũu, agĩthiĩ.
And when he had gone up, he broke the bread and tasted it, and discoursed until the morning dawned. And then he departed to go by land.
12 Nao andũ makĩinũkia mwanake ũcio arĩ muoyo, na mahooreire ngoro mũno.
And they brought the young man alive, and rejoiced over him greatly.
13 No ithuĩ tũgĩthiĩ mbere tũgĩtoonya marikabu tũgĩthiĩ nginya Aso, kũrĩa twathiire tũkĩoyaga Paũlũ. Aathondekete mũbango ũyũ mbere tondũ we athiĩte kũu magũrũ.
And we went on board the ship, and sailed to the port of Thesos; because, there we were to take in Paul: for so had he bidden us, when he proceeded on by land.
14 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aatũtũngire kũu Aso, tũkĩmũkuua na marikabu, tũgĩthiĩ nginya Mitilene.
And when we had received him at Thesos, we took him on board ship and proceeded to Mitylene.
15 Mũthenya ũcio ũngĩ warũmĩrĩire tũkĩhaica marikabu, tũgĩthiĩ tũgĩkinya harĩa haaringaine na Kio, na thuutha wa mũthenya ũcio tũgĩkinya Samo, naguo mũthenya ũcio ũngĩ warũmĩrĩire, tũgĩkinya Mileto.
And from there, the next day, we sailed over against the island Chios; and again, the next day we arrived at Samos, and stopped at Trogyllium; and on the following day we arrived at Miletus.
16 Paũlũ nĩatuĩte itua rĩa gũthiĩ ahĩtũkĩte Efeso na marikabu nĩguo ndagate mahinda kũu bũrũri wa Asia, nĩ ũndũ nĩehĩkaga nĩguo kwahoteka akinye Jerusalemu, mũthenya wa Bendegothito.
For Paul had determined with himself to pass by Ephesus, lest he should be delayed there; because he hasted on, if possible, to keep the day of pentecost in Jerusalem.
17 Paũlũ arĩ kũu Mileto, agĩtũmana Efeso, agĩĩta athuuri a kanitha moke harĩ we.
And from Miletus, he sent and called the Elders of the church at Ephesus.
18 Nao maakinya, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ nĩ mũũĩ ũrĩa ndaatũũraga ihinda rĩrĩa rĩothe ndaaikarire na inyuĩ, kuuma o mũthenya wa mbere ũrĩa ndookire bũrũri wa Asia.
And when they had come to him, he said to them: Ye yourselves know, how, at all times, since the first day that I entered Asia, I have been with you;
19 Nĩndatungatĩire Mwathani ndĩnyiihĩtie mũno na ndĩ na maithori, o na gũtuĩka nĩndageririo mũno nĩ ũndũ Ayahudi nĩmaathugundaga kũnjĩka ũũru.
laboring for God, in great humility, and with tears, amid the trials which beset me from the plottings of Jews:
20 Inyuĩ nĩmũũĩ atĩ ndirĩ ndatithia kũhunjia ũndũ o wothe ũngĩmũguna no ndĩmũrutagĩra mbere ya andũ othe na ngathiiaga o nyũmba o nyũmba.
and I shunned not that which was advantageous to your souls, that I might preach to you, and teach in the streets and in houses,
21 Na ngoimbũrĩra Ayahudi o hamwe na Ayunani atĩ no nginya magarũrũke kũrĩ Ngai na ũndũ wa kwĩrira na magĩe na wĩtĩkio thĩinĩ wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ.
while I testified to Jews and to Gentiles, as to repentance towards God and faith in our Lord Jesus Messiah.
22 “Na rĩrĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa kũringĩrĩrio nĩ Roho Mũtheru, ndĩrathiĩ Jerusalemu itekũmenya maũndũ marĩa makaangora ndĩ kũu.
And now I am bound in spirit, and I go to Jerusalem; and I know not what will befall me there;
23 Ũndũ ũrĩa njũũĩ tu nĩ atĩ, Roho Mũtheru nĩandaaraga atĩ matũũra-inĩ mothe, njeera na mathĩĩna nĩcio injetereire.
except that the Holy Spirit in every city, testifieth to me and saith: Bonds and afflictions await thee.
24 No rĩrĩ, ndirona gũtũũra muoyo kũrĩ na bata harĩ niĩ, korwo no ndĩĩkie ihenya na ndĩĩkie wĩra ũrĩa Mwathani Jesũ aaheete, na nĩguo wĩra wa kuumbũra Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa wega wa Ngai.
But my life is accounted by me as nothing, so that I may but finish my course, and the ministration which I have received from our Lord Jesus, to bear testimony to the gospel of the grace of God.
25 “Na rĩu nĩnjũũĩ gũtirĩ o na ũmwe thĩinĩ wanyu wa andũ arĩa ndanathiĩ ngĩhunjagĩria ũhoro wa ũthamaki ũgacooka kũnyona rĩngĩ.
And now, I know that ye will see my face no more, all of you among whom I have travelled and preached the kingdom of God.
26 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ngũmwĩra ũmũthĩ atĩ gũtirĩ thakame ya mũndũ o na ũmwe ngoorio.
I therefore protest to you, this day, that I am pure from the blood of you all.
27 Nĩ ũndũ niĩ ndirĩ ndatithia kũmũhunjĩria wendi wa Ngai ũrĩ wothe.
For I have not shunned to acquaint you with all the will of God.
28 Mwĩmenyererei inyuĩ ene, na mũmenyerere rũũru ruothe rũrĩa Roho Mũtheru amũtuĩte arori aruo. Tuĩkai arĩithi a kanitha wa Ngai, ũrĩa aagũrire na thakame yake mwene.
Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock over which the Holy Spirit hath established you bishops; that ye feed the church of God, which he hath acquired by his blood.
29 Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ ndaarĩkia gũthiĩ, njũũi ndĩĩani nĩigooka gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu na itigacaaĩra rũũru rũrũ.
For I know, that after I am gone, fierce wolves will come in among you, and will have no mercy on the flock.
30 O na ningĩ kuuma harĩ inyuĩ nĩgũkoimĩra andũ, na mogomie ũhoro-wa-ma nĩgeetha maguucĩrĩrie arutwo mamarũmĩrĩre.
And also, from among yourselves, there will rise up men speaking perverse things, that they may turn away the disciples to go after them.
31 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ikaragai mwĩhũgĩte! Ririkanai atĩ ihinda rĩa mĩaka ĩtatũ ndirĩ ndatigithĩria gutaara o ũmwe wanyu ũtukũ na mũthenya ngĩitaga maithori.
Therefore be ye vigilant; and remember, that for three years I ceased not to admonish each one of you, by day and by night, with tears.
32 “Na rĩu ngũmũneana kũrĩ Ngai o na kũrĩ ũhoro wa wega wake, ũrĩa ũngĩhota kũmwaka wega mũrũme na mũgĩe na igai hamwe na andũ arĩa othe matheretio.
And now I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all the saints.
33 Niĩ ndirĩ ndacuumĩkĩra betha kana thahabu, o na kana nguo ya mũndũ o wothe.
Silver, or gold, or garments, I have not coveted.
34 Inyuĩ ene nĩmũũĩ atĩ ndaarutaga wĩra na moko makwa nĩ ũndũ wa mabata makwa niĩ mwene, na mabata ma andũ arĩa ndakoragwo nao.
And ye yourselves, know, that these hands ministered to my wants, and to them that were with me.
35 Maũndũ-inĩ marĩa mothe ndeekire, nĩndamuonirie atĩ no nginya tũteithagie andũ arĩa matarĩ hinya, na ũndũ wa kũruta wĩra mũritũ ta ũcio, tũkĩririkanaga ciugo iria ciaririo nĩ Mwathani Jesũ we mwene rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ, ‘Kũheana nĩ kũrĩ irathimo nyingĩ gũkĩra kũheo.’”
And I have showed you all things; that thus it is a duty to labor, and to care for the infirm, and to remember the words of our Lord Jesus; for he hath said, That he is more blessed who giveth, than he who receiveth.
36 Aarĩkia kuuga ũguo, agĩturia ndu hamwe nao othe makĩhooya.
And when he had said these things, he fell on his knees and prayed, and all the people with him.
37 Nao othe makĩrĩra makĩmũhĩmbagĩria na makĩmũmumunya.
And there was great weeping among them all. And they embraced him, and kissed him.
38 Ũndũ ũrĩa wamekĩrire kĩeha mũno makĩria, nĩ ũrĩa aameerire atĩ matigacooka kũmuona ũthiũ rĩngĩ. Magĩcooka makĩmumagaria nginya marikabu-inĩ.
And they had the most anguish, because of the word he uttered, that they would see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship.
