Ntendo nia itumi 10
1 Ai ukoli nu muntu nua kitungaa mu kisali nika ku Kaisaria, lina nilakwe ai witangwaa Kornelio, ai mukulu wi idale nila Kiitalia.
Now there was at Caesarea a man named Cornelius, a captain in the Italian regiment.
2 Ai watulaa mukulya Itunda hangi ai umukuiye Itunda ni ito nilakwe lihi; ai upumilye mpia idu ku Ayahudi hangi ai ulompile kung'wa Itunda mahiku ihi.
He was a devout man and God-fearing, and so were all his household. He gave many alms to the people, and constantly prayed to God.
3 Matungo a saa kenda nia mung'wi, akihenga muloto Malaika nuang'wa Itunda upembilye kitalakwe. uMalaika akamutambuila, “Kornelio!
About three o’clock one afternoon he had a vision, and distinctly saw an angel of God enter his house and say to him, "Cornelius."
4 uKornelio akamugoza u malaika hangi ai ukete u woa ukulu nangaluu akaligitya “Iki ki ntuni mukulu?” uMalaika akamutambuila “Malompi ako ni masongelyo ako ku aula yanakilaa migulya anga ukimbukiilyi mu umoli nuang'wa Itunda.”
He stared at him in terror, and said, "What is it, Lord?" "Your prayers and your alms have risen for a memorial before God," answered the angel;
5 Itungili lagiilya i antu alongole ikisali nika Yafa kumuleta muntu ung'wi nuitangwaa Simioni naiza witangwa ga ni Petro.
"and now send men to Joppa and fetch one Simon, who is called Peter.
6 Wikiie hangi munonia ndili nuitangwaa Simioni naiza ito nilakwe likoli mpelo a luzi.”
"He is staying as a guest with Simon, a tanner, whose house is near the sea."
7 Ze yakilaa uMalaika nai watula ukuligitya nu ng'wenso kuhega, uKornelio akaitanga i anyamulimo ni a mito nilakwe abiili, nu a asikali nai watulaa ukumukulya Itunda pa kati a asikali nai atulaa akumuaiilya.
And after the angel who was speaking to him was gone, he called two of his household servants and a devout soldier who was in constant attendance upon him,
8 uKornelio ai uatambuie ihi nai apumie nu kualagiilya ku Yafa.
and after telling them everything, he sent them to Joppa.
9 Luhiku nai lutyatile itungo nila saa mutandatu aze amoli mu nzila hangi ahumbeela mu kisali, uPetro akanankila migulya mu kitala kulompa.
The next day, while they were still on their way and were approaching the town, about noon, Peter went up to the housetop to pray.
10 Ga ni hangi akatula ni nzala nu kusiga i kintu ka kulya, kuiti itungo i antu akuluga indya, akalagiilwa muloto,
He had become very hungry and longed for food; but while they were preparing it, he fell into a trance.
11 akihenga ilunde laluguka ni kiseme kikusima ni kintu kituunga anga ng'wenda mukulu ukusima pihi mu mahalu mu nkigo niakwe yihi inne.
He beheld the sky opened, and a vessel descending like an enormous sail let down to earth by four corners.
12 Mukati akwe ai ikoli mpyani yihi nia ikali ni ikete migulu inne nizi ni yagulaa migulya a mahalu, ni nyunyi nia milunde.
In it were all kinds of quadrupeds and creeping things of the earth, and wild birds.
13 Hangi luli lukaligitya kitalakwe, “Uka, Petro sinza nu nkulya.”
A voice came to him, saying, "Rise, Peter, kill and eat."
14 Kuiti uPetro akaligitya “Shanga iti, Mukulu ku nsoko nkili nkaye kulya kintu kihi ni kizumi hangi kishapu.
"Not so, my Lord," answered Peter, "for I have never yet eaten anything common and unclean."
15 Kuiti u luli lukapembya kitalakwe hangi ku nkua akabiili “Nukeilye Itunda leka kukitanga kizumi ang'wi ki shapu.”
And again a second time came to him a voice, saying, "What God has cleansed you must not call common."
16 Iki ai kipumie nkua itaatu, ni kiseme iko kikatula kaholwaa hangi milunde.
This happened three times; and immediately the sail was drawn up into the sky.
17 Ni matungo uPetro aze ukoli mu uhalinkanilwa migulya a muloto nuanso ndogoelyo akwe ntuni, Goza, antu nai atulaa alagiigwe nu Kornelio akimika ntongeela a mumpita, azekolya i nzila a kulongola mu ito.
Now while Peter was greatly perplexed to know what the vision which he had been sent by Cornelius, and had made inquiries for the house of Simon, stood at the gate,
18 Hangi akitanga nu ku kolya anga ize uSimioni nuitangwaa ga ni Petro anga ize ai watulaa wkiie pang'wanso.
and called and asked whether Simon who was called Peter was lodging there.
19 Itungo nilanso uPetro nai watulaa ukusiga migulya a uwo u muloto, Ng'wau Ng'welu akaligitya nu ng'wenso,
So the Spirit said to Peter, who was still pondering over the vision.
20 “Uka hangi usime pihi nu kulongola ni enso. Leka kitumba kulongola ni enso, ku nsoko nialagiiye.”
"Three men are now looking for you. Rise, go down and go with them, nothing doubting; for it is I who have sent them."
21 uPetro akasima pihi kitalao nu kuligitya, “Unene yuyo ni mukumuduma. Ku niki mupembilye?”
So Peter went down to the men and said. "I am the man you are looking for. What is the reason of your coming?"
22 Akaligitya, “Akida ung'wi i lina nilakwe Kornelio, muntu nua tai ane hangi wilowaa kumukulya Itunda, ni antu imutambulaa ikende mu ingu wihi nua Ayahudi, utambuiwe nu malaika nuang'wa Itunda ku ulagiilya iti ulongole mi ito nilakwe, iti wije u lukani kupuma kitalako.”
"Cornelius," they answered, "a captain, a devout man, and God- fearing, of whom the whole, Jewish nation speaks well, was instructed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house, and to listen to your message."
23 uPetro aka asingiilya kingila mukati nu kikie palung'wi nu ng'wenso. Kidau dau nai kityatile akauka akalongola palung'wi ni enso, ni anya ndugu asheenyu kupuma ku Yafa akityata nu ng'wenso.
So he invited them in and gave them lodging. The next day he rose, and went off with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied them;
24 Luhiku nai lutyatile ai azile ku Kaisaria. Nu Kornelio ai ukoli ualindiie; hangi ai watulaa waitanga palung'wi anya ndugu akwe ni ahumba uya akwe nia pakupi.
and the day after that they reached Caesarea. There Cornelius was waiting for them, and had brought together all his relatives and intimate friends.
25 Matungo uPetro nai ukingila mukati, uKornelio akamusingiilya nu kutuna kupika pihi mu migulu akwe ku ikulyo.
When Peter entered the house Cornelius met him, fell at his feet, and worshiped him;
26 Kuiti uPetro akamunyansula nu kuligitya “Imike; ga nu nene mukola ingi ni bina adamu.”
but Peter lifted him up. "Stand up," he said, "I am only a man, myself."
27 Matungo uPetro aze ukoli ukitambuila nu ng'wenso, ai ulongoe mu ito akahanga i antu ilundiila palung'wi.
And as he talked with him, he went in and found a large company assembled.
28 Aka aila, Unyenye akola mulingile kina shanga ilagiilyo nila Ayahudi kihanguila ang'wi kugendeelwa nu muntu niiza shanga nua ingu uwu. Kuiti Itunda undagiie unene kina shanga ntakiwe kumitanga muntu wihi ingi muzung'waa ang'wi mushapu.
To them he said. "You know, yourselves, that it is illegal for a Jew to associate with or to visit one of another nation; but God has taught me that I should not call any man common or unclean. For this reason, when sent for, I came without demur.
29 Hangi yiyo ndogoelyo mpembilye bila kikungumya, nai ndagiigwe ku nsoko a iko. Kululo numukolye ku niki mulagiigwe ku nsoko ane.”
"I ask therefore why you sent for me."
30 uKornelio akaligitya, “Mahiku anne nakiile, itungo anga lili aza nkoli kulompa itungo nila saa kenda mung'wi mukati ito nilane; Nihenga ntogeela ane muntu wimikile ukete ni ang'wenda elu.
Cornelius answered. "Three days ago, at this very hour, I was praying in my house at three o’clock in the afternoon, when suddenly a man in a shining robe stood by me,
31 Akantambuila. “Kornelio malompi ako igigwa nu Itunda, ni masongelyo ako ku aula yatulaa ukimbukiilyi ntongeela ang'wa Itunda.
and said. "‘Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Kululo lagiilya muntu ku Yafa nu kumitanga muntu ung'wi nuitangwaa Simioni waze kitalako, naiza hangi witangwaa Petro. naizaa wikiie ku muzipya ndili ung'wi nuitangwaa Simioni naiza ito nilakwe likoli mu mpelo a luzi.
"‘So send to Joppa and summon Simon, who is called Peter. He is lodging with Simon the tanner, in a house by the seaside.’
33 (Komaniilya; U lukiili ulu, Nu ng'wenso nuikapemya ukuligitya nu nyenye,” umutule mu ukilisigwa nua kali.)
"So I sent for you without delay, and you have been kind enough to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God, to listen to what the Lord has commanded you to speak."
34 Uugwa uPetro akalugula u mulomo nuakwe nuku ligitya “Tai, nahuiila kina Itunda shanga uhumile kutula nu ukuili.
Then Peter began to speak. "Of a truth I begin to see quite plainly that God is no respecter of persons;
35 Badala akwe, kila ingu u muntu wihi nuimukulyaa nu kituma i ntendo nia tai ane ugombekile kitalakwe.
"but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
36 Ulingile u lukani nai u upimilye ku antu a Isreli, nai watulaa ukutanantya lukani nu lukende nula ulyuuku kukiila Yesu Kristo naiza Mukulu nua ihi -
"You cannot but know the message which he sent to the descendants of Israel, when he preached the gospel of peace by Jesus Christ who is Lord of all;
37 nu nyenye akola mulingile i kintu nai kipumie, naiza kipumie ku Yudea ihi hangi ai landiiye ku Galilaya, ze yzkilaa u wogigwa naza uYohana ai utanantilye.
"you know the message spread throughout all Judea, beginning in Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
38 i kintu nai katulaa kimutule uYesu Kristo iti Itunda nai umuikie i makuta ku Ng'wau Ng'welu nu ku ngulu. Ai ulongoe nukituma u ukende nu kuaguna ihi naiagigwe nu mulugu, ku nsoko Itunda ai watulaa palung'wi nu ng'wenso.
"how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how he went about everywhere doing good, and curing all who were oppressed by the devil; for God was with him.
39 Usese ingi akuiili a makani ihi nai witumile mi ihi nia Uyahudi nu mu Yerusalemu- uyu ingi Yesu nai amubulagile nu kumutumbika mikota.
"And we were witnesses of all that he did, both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him, hanging him on a tree.
40 Uyu muntu wang'wa Itunda nai umiukilye luhiku nula kataatu nu kuminkiilya kukumuka, shanga ku antu ihi, kuiti ku akuiili nai aholanigwe ze ikili ni Itunda.
"But him God raised up on the third day, and permitted him to be made manifest,
41 -usese akola, nai kalyaa nu ng'wenso nu kung'waa nu ng'wenso ze yakilaa kiuka kupuma ku ashi.
"not to all the people, but to witnesses - men previously chosen by God - that is, to us, who ate and drank with him after he had risen from the dead;
42 Ukulagiiye kutanantya ku antu nu ku kuiila kina uyu yuyo naiza Itunda ai umuholanilye kutula mulamuli nua nia panga nawa niakule.
"when he charged us to preach to the people, and to testify that this was he whom God ordained to be the judge of the living and of the dead.
43 Mu ng'wenso anyakidagu ihi akuiile, iti kina kila nukuhuiila mu ng'wenso ukusingiilya ulekelwa nua mulandu kukiila i lina nilakwe.”
"To him all the prophets bear witness, testifying that through his name every one that believes on him will receive remission of sins."
44 Matungo uPetro ulongolekile kuligitya aya, Ng'wau Ng'welu akaizulya ihi nai atulaa akutegeelya u lukani nulakwe.
While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit fell on all who were listening to the message.
45 Antu awo niatulikile ni idale nila ahuiili nai atawe ikidamu- awo ihi nai azile nu Petro- ai akuiwe, ku nsoko a kipegwa nika Ng'wau Ng'welu nai uhunuwe ga nuku anyaingu.
And all the Jewish believers who had accompanied Peter were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out upon the Gentiles also.
46 Ku nsoko ai igule awa anyaingu akutambula ku ntambu ingiiza nu kumukulya Itunda. uPetro akasukiilya.
For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.
47 “Ukoli muntu wihi uhumile kugilya i mazi iti i antu aleke kogigwa, Antu awa amusingiilya uNg'wau Ng'welu anga usese?”
Then Peter said, "Can any one refuse water for the baptism of these men who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we?"
48 Uugwa akalagiilya ogigwe ku lina nilang'wa Yesu Kristo. Panya mbele akamulompa wikiie nienso ku mahiku kituunga.
And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they begged him to remain with them for a time.
