< Atũmwo 21 >
1 Na rĩrĩ, thuutha wa gwĩtigithũkania nao, tũkĩhaica marikabu tũgĩthiĩ tũrũngĩrĩirie tũgĩkinya Kosi. Mũthenya ũcio ũngĩ warũmĩrĩire tũgĩkinya Rodo, na twoima kũu tũgĩthiĩ nginya Patara.
And we separated from them and voyaged directly unto Ko the island, and the day after we came to Rodos, and from thence to Patara;
2 Tũgĩkora marikabu yaringaga ĩthiĩ Foinike, na ithuĩ tũkĩmĩhaica tũgĩthiĩ.
and we found there a ship which was going to Punike, and we ascended into her and voyaged.
3 Na rĩrĩa tuonire Kuporo, tũkĩhĩtũkĩra mwena wa gũthini wakuo, tũgĩthiĩ nginya Suriata. Tũgĩkinya Turo, kũrĩa marikabu iitũ yarutagĩrwo mĩrigo ĩrĩa yarĩ nayo.
And coming near Kypros the island, we left it on the left hand and came unto Syria, and thence came we to Tsur: for there was the ship to relieve from her burden.
4 Tũgĩkora arutwo kuo, na tũgĩikara nao mĩthenya mũgwanja. Nao arutwo acio na ũndũ wa kũmenyithio nĩ Roho Mũtheru magĩthaitha Paũlũ ndagathiĩ Jerusalemu.
And having found disciples there, we sojourned with them seven days. And these said daily unto Paulos in the Spirit, That he should not go unto Urishlem.
5 No ihinda riitũ rĩathira, tũkiuma kũu, tũgĩthiĩ na mbere na rũgendo rwitũ. Arutwo othe, hamwe na atumia ao na ciana ciao, magĩtuumagaria, magĩtũkinyia nja ya itũũra, na tũrĩ hau hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria, tũgĩturia ndu, tũkĩhooya Ngai.
And after those days we departed to go on the way. And they accompanied us, all of them, they and their wives and their children, till without the city, and kneeled upon their knees on the sea shore, and prayed. And we kissed one another,
6 Twaarĩkia kuganĩra ũhoro, tũkĩhaica marikabu, nao makĩinũka.
and we ascended to the ship, and they returned to their homes.
7 Twoima Turo, tũgĩthiĩ na mbere na rũgendo rwitũ, tũgĩkinya Putolemai, tũkĩgeithia ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ kuo na tũgĩikarania nao mũthenya ũmwe.
But we voyaged from Tsur, and came to Aku the city, and gave the salutation to the brethren who were there, and abode among them one day.
8 Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ tũkiuma kuo, tũgĩthiĩ, tũgĩkinya Kaisarea, na tũgĩikara mũciĩ kwa Filipu ũrĩa warĩ mũhunjia ũmwe wa arĩa Mũgwanja.
And the day after we departed and came to Cesarea; and we entered and abode in the house of Philipos the preacher, he who was of the seven.
9 Nake nĩarĩ na airĩtu aake ana matarĩ ahiku, nao nĩmarathaga mohoro.
And he had four virgin daughters who prophesied.
10 Na thuutha wa gũkorwo kuo matukũ maingĩ-rĩ, gũgĩũka mũnabii wetagwo Agabo oimĩte Judea.
And when we had been there many days, there came down from Jihud a certain prophet whose name was Agabos.
11 Rĩrĩa aakinyire harĩ ithuĩ, akĩoya mũcibi wa Paũlũ, akĩwĩĩoha moko na magũrũ, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Roho Mũtheru aroiga atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Ayahudi a Jerusalemu marĩoha mwene mũcibi ũyũ, na macooke mamũneane kũrĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ.’”
And he came in to us, and took the loins'-girdle of Paulos, and bound his own feet and his hands, and said, Thus saith the Spirit of Holiness, So the man the master of this girdle will the Jihudoyee bind in Urishlem; and they will deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.
12 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa twaiguire ũguo, ithuĩ na andũ arĩa angĩ maarĩ ho tũgĩthaitha Paũlũ ndakae kwambata Jerusalemu.
And when we heard these words, we and the sons of the place entreated of him not to go unto Urishlem.
13 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Paũlũ agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma mũrĩre, na mũkanjũraga ngoro? To kuohwo gwiki ndĩĩhaarĩirie, no nĩndĩhaarĩirie o na gũkua ndĩ kũu Jerusalemu nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Mwathani Jesũ.”
THEN answered Paulos and said, What do you, weeping and bruising my heart? For not to be bound only am I prepared, but also to die in Urishlem, for the sake of the name of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.
14 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aaregire kũigua ũrĩa twamwĩraga-rĩ, tũgĩtigana nake tũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Wendo wa Mwathani ũrohinga.”
And when he would not be persuaded by us, we desisted, and said, The will of our Lord be done.
15 Thuutha wa ũguo, tũkĩĩhaarĩria tũkĩambata Jerusalemu.
And after those days we prepared and went up to Urishlem.
16 Arutwo amwe a kuuma Kaisarea magĩthiĩ hamwe na ithuĩ, na magĩtũtwara kwa mũndũ wetagwo Mũnasoni, tũgaikare kuo. Aarĩ mũndũ woimĩte Kuporo, na aarĩ ũmwe wa arutwo arĩa a mbere.
And there went with us men, disciples, from Cesarea, who conducted with them a certain brother of the first disciples whose name was Mnason, and he was from Kypros, to receive us into his house.
17 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa twakinyire Jerusalemu, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ magĩtwamũkĩra na gĩkeno.
And when we were come to Urishlem, the brethren received us joyfully.
18 Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ Paũlũ, na andũ arĩa twarĩ nao tũgĩthiĩ kuona Jakubu, nao athuuri othe maarĩ ho.
And the day following we entered with Paulos to Jakub, while all the presbyters were with him.
19 Nake Paũlũ akĩmageithia na akĩmeera ũrĩa wothe Ngai eekĩire andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ agereire ũtungata-inĩ wake.
And we gave them salutation. And Paulos recounted to them in order what Aloha had done among the Gentiles by his ministry.
20 Rĩrĩa maaiguire ũguo, makĩgooca Ngai. Magĩcooka makĩĩra Paũlũ atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa ithe witũ, nĩwonete ũrĩa Ayahudi ngiri nyingĩ metĩkĩtie, na othe marĩ na kĩyo gĩa kũhingia watho.
And when they heard, they glorified Aloha. And they said to him, Thou seest, our brother, how many myriads there are in Jihud who believe, and all of them are zealous for the law.
21 Nao nĩmamenyithĩtio atĩ nĩ ũrutaga Ayahudi othe arĩa matũũranagia na andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ atĩ magarũrũke matigane na watho wa Musa, ũkĩmeeraga matikaruithie ciana ciao na matigaikare kũringana na mĩtugo iitũ.
But it hath been said to them of thee, that thou teachest all the Jihudoyee who are among the Gentiles to remove from Musha; telling them that they should not circumcise their sons, nor walk in the customs of the law.
22 Tũgwĩka atĩa? Hatirĩ ngaanja nĩmekũigua atĩ nĩũũkĩte.
On this account, when they hear that thou art come hither, do that which we tell thee.
23 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ĩka ũrĩa tũgũkwĩra. Tũrĩ na andũ ana mehĩtĩte mwĩhĩtwa.
We have four men who have a vow to be purified.
24 Thiĩ na andũ aya, ũgwatanĩre nao igongona-inĩ rĩao rĩa gwĩtheria, na ũmarĩhĩre mahũthĩro mao, nĩgeetha menjwo mĩtwe. Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ othe nĩmekũmenya atĩ ũhoro ũrĩa maiguĩte ũgũkoniĩ ti wa ma, no atĩ wee mwene nĩwathĩkĩire watho.
Take them, and go, purify with them, and lay out upon them the expenses, that they may shave their heads; and it will be known to every man that what hath been said against thee is false, and that thou fulfillest and keepest the law.
25 Ha ũhoro wa andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ arĩa metĩkĩtie-rĩ, nĩtwamandĩkĩire, tũkĩmamenyithia itua riitũ, atĩ o metheeme kũrĩa irio iria irutĩirwo mĩhianano, na thakame, na nyama cia nyamũ cia gũitwo, o na ũmaraya.”
Concerning those of the Gentiles who believe, we wrote that they should keep themselves from sacrifices, and from fornication, and from the strangled, and from blood.
26 Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ Paũlũ agĩthiĩ na andũ acio, na agĩĩtheria hamwe nao. Agĩcooka agĩthiĩ hekarũ-inĩ akamenyithanie rĩrĩa mĩthenya ya gwĩtheria ĩkaarĩka, na o ũmwe wao arutĩrwo igongona.
Then Paul took those men the day after, and was purified with them. And he entered and went into the temple, making known to them the fulfillment of the days of the purification, so that an oblation might be offered for each man of them.
27 Rĩrĩa matukũ macio mũgwanja maakuhĩrĩirie gũthira-rĩ, Ayahudi amwe moimĩte bũrũri wa Asia makĩona Paũlũ hekarũ-inĩ. Magĩthogotha kĩrĩndĩ gĩothe na makĩmũnyiita,
And when the seventh day was come the Jihudoyee who were from Asia saw him in the temple, and stirred up against him all the people. And they lifted their hands against him,
28 makĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ, “Andũ a Isiraeli, tũteithiei! Mũndũ ũyũ nĩ we ũrutaga andũ kũndũ guothe ũhoro wa gũũkĩrĩra andũ aitũ, na watho witũ, na handũ haha. Na hamwe na ũguo-rĩ, nĩarehete Ayunani hekarũ-inĩ, agathaahia handũ haha hatheru.”
crying out, and saying, Men, sons of Israel, help! This is the man who contrary to our people teacheth every where, and contrary to the law, and against this place. And also Aramoyee hath he brought into the temple, and profaned this holy place.
29 (Nĩmonete Tirofimo ũrĩa Mũefeso marĩ na Paũlũ kũu itũũra-inĩ, no magĩĩciiria atĩ Paũlũ nĩamũtoonyetie hekarũ-inĩ.)
For they had before seen with him Trophimus the Ephesian in the city, and supposed that with Paulos he had entered the temple.
30 Narĩo itũũra rĩothe rĩkĩambũrũrũka nao andũ magĩũka mahanyũkĩte moimĩte mĩena yothe. Makĩnyiita Paũlũ, makĩmũguucũrũria makĩmũruta hekarũ, na o hĩndĩ ĩyo ihingo ikĩhingwo.
And the whole city was commoved, and all the people assembled, and they laid hold of Paulos, and dragged him without from the temple; and instantly the gates were shut.
31 Na rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa maageragia kũmũũraga ũhoro ũgĩkinya harĩ mũnene wa mbũtũ ya thigari cia Roma atĩ itũũra rĩothe rĩa Jerusalemu rĩarĩ na ngũĩ.
And while the multitude sought to kill him, the tribune of the cohort heard that the whole city was agitated.
32 Nake o rĩmwe akĩoya anene na thigari magĩikũrũka harĩ kĩrĩndĩ matengʼerete. Rĩrĩa andũ acio maarutaga ngũĩ moonire mũnene ũcio na thigari ciake magĩtiga kũhũũra Paũlũ.
And forthwith took he a centurion and many soldiers and ran upon them; and when they saw the tribune and the soldiers, they desisted from beating Paulos.
33 Mũnene ũcio wa thigari agĩũka akĩmũnyiita na agĩathana ohwo na mĩnyororo ĩĩrĩ. Agĩcooka akĩũria aarĩ ũ na nĩ atĩa ekĩte.
And the tribune drew near and took him, and commanded them to bind him with two chains. And he asked concerning him who (he was), and what he had done?
34 Andũ amwe thĩinĩ wa kĩrĩndĩ maanagĩrĩra makoiga ũũ na arĩa angĩ makoiga ũũ; na tondũ mũnene ũcio wa thigari ndangĩamenyire ma ya ũhoro nĩ ũndũ wa mbugĩrĩrio, agĩathana Paũlũ ahingĩrwo nyũmba ya thigari.
And men from the crowd cried against him variously, and because of their crying he was not able to know what was the truth; and he commanded that they should lead him to the fortress.
35 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Paũlũ aakinyire ngathĩ-inĩ kĩrĩndĩ kĩu gĩgĩthũka mũno o nginya Paũlũ agĩkuuo nĩ thigari.
And as Paulos came to the stairs the soldiers carried him, on account of the violence of the people:
36 Kĩrĩndĩ kĩrĩa kĩamuumĩte thuutha kĩanagĩrĩra gĩkoiga atĩrĩ, “Mweheriei!”
for after him was much people; and they cried, and said, Away with him!
37 Rĩrĩa thigari ciarĩ o hakuhĩ gũtoonyia Paũlũ nyũmba ya thigari-rĩ, akĩũria mũnene wacio atĩrĩ, “Nĩũkũnjĩtĩkĩria ngwĩre ũndũ?” Nake mũnene ũcio akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee anga nĩwaragia Kĩyunani?
And as they came to enter into the fortress, Paulos himself said to the tribune, May I be permitted to speak to the people?
38 Githĩ we tiwe Mũmisiri ũrĩa wambĩrĩirie ngũĩ hĩndĩ ĩmwe, na ũgĩtongoria itoi ngiri inya, mũkiumagara nacio mũgĩthiĩ werũ-inĩ?”
But he said to him, Javanith knowest thou? Art thou not that Metsroya who before these days stirred up and led forth into the waste four thousand men workers of evils?
39 Paũlũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩ Mũyahudi wa kuuma Tariso, bũrũri wa Kilikia, na itũũra rĩrĩa ndaciarĩirwo rĩrĩ igweta. Ndagũthaitha, reke njarĩrie andũ aya.”
Paulos said to him, I am a man a Jihudoya from Tarsos of Cilicia, an illustrious city in which I was born: I pray you permit me to speak to the people.
40 Paũlũ aarĩkia kũheo rũũtha nĩ mũnene ũcio wa thigari, akĩrũgama ngathĩ-inĩ agĩkiria kĩrĩndĩ kĩu na moko. Rĩrĩa kĩrĩndĩ gĩakirire, agĩkĩarĩria na rũthiomi rwa Kĩhibirania. Agĩkĩĩra atĩrĩ:
And when he had permitted him, Paulos stood upon the stairs, and signed to them with his hand; and when they had ceased, he spoke to them in Hebrew, and said to them,
