Ntendo nia itumi 11

1 Itumi ni anya ndugu awo nai akoli uko ku Yudea nai igulye kina anyaingu alusingiilya u lukani nulang'wa Itunda.

Now the Apostles and the brethren who were throughout Judaea heard that, the nations also, had welcomed the word of God.

2 uPetro nai wakiza uko kuYerusalemu, idale ilo nila antu nai atalwa ikidamu akandya ku musosha, Azeligitya,

And, when Peter came up unto Jerusalem, they of the circumcision began to find fault with him,

3 “Wa ambinkana nia antu nishanga atawe ikidamu nu kulya nienso!”

Saying—he went in unto men uncircumcised, and did eat with them.

4 Kuiti uPetro ai wandilye kuganula i kintu mu kati; azeligitya,

But Peter, making a beginning, went on to set forth the matter unto them in order, saying—

5 “Aza nkoli kulompa mu kisali nika Yafa, nihenga muloto nua kiseme kikusima pihi anga ng'wenda mukulu ukusima kupuma mi ilunde ku nkigo niakwe inne. kikasima kitalane.

I was in the city of Joppa praying, and saw in a trance, a vision: —coming down a sort of vessel, like a large sheet, by four corners, being let down out of heaven, and it came even unto me:

6 Nikakigoza nu kusiga migulya akwe. Nikihenga ikali nia migulu inne niyikiie mi ihi, ni ikali nia mihaka ni ikali ni yagulaa ni nyunyi nia kilunde.

Into which steadfastly looking, began to observe, and saw the quadrupeds of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of heaven.

7 Uugwa nikija luli lukuligitya nu nene, “Uka, Petro, sinza hangi ulye!”

Moreover heard a voice also, saying unto me—Rise, Peter! slay and eat.

8 Nikaligitya, “Shanga uu, Mukulu, mu mulomo nuane shanga yakaiyee kingila kintu kihi ni shanga keigwe ang'wi kishapu”

But I said—By no means, Lord, because, a common or unclean thing, hath at no time entered into my mouth.

9 Kuiti u luli lukansukiilya hangi kupuma kilunde, iko Itunda nukitanantilye kutula ingi kelu, leka kukitanga ingi kizung'wa,

And a voice answered, a second time, out of heaven—What things, God, hath cleansed, be not, thou, making common.

10 Iki ai kipumie nkua itaatu, ni kila kintu kikaholwa kilunde hangi.

And, this, took place thrice, —and the whole was drawn up again into heaven;

11 Goza, itungo nilanso antu a taatu ai atulaa imikile ntongeela ito ilo nai kumoli; alagiigwe kupuma ku Kaisaria kupembya kitalane.

And lo! immediately, three men halted at the house wherein we were, sent from Caesarea unto me.

12 Ng'wau Ng'welu akantambuila kulongola nienso, hangi ndeke kuhutana nienso. Awa agoha ni mu tandatu akalongola palung'wi nu nene hangi ai kulongoe mi ito nila muntu ung'wi.

And the Spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. And there went with me these six brethren also; and we entered into the house of the man,

13 Ai ukutambuie iti nai umihengile u malaika wimikile mukati ito nilakwe azeligitya, “Ndagiilye ku Yafa numulete uSimioni niiza ilina nilakwe i lulya ingi Petro.

And he related to us how he had seen the messenger in his house, standing, and saying—Send away unto Joppa, and fetch Simon, who is surnamed Peter;

14 Ukuligitya u lukani kitalako mu uwu ukugunika uewe ni ito nilako lihi.”

Who shall speak words unto thee, whereby thou shall be saved, thou, and all thy house.

15 Nai nandilye kuligitya nienso, Ng'wau Ng'welu wakiza migulya ao anga kitaitu u ng'wandyo.

And, as I began to be speaking, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, just as upon us also at the beginning.

16 Nkimbukile i makani a Mukulu, nai uligitile, “uYohana ai wogilye ku mazi, kuiti mukoja ku Ng'wau Ng'welu.”

And I was put in mind of the word of the Lord, how he used to say—John, indeed, immersed with water; but, ye, shall be immersed in Holy Spirit.

17 Hangi anga Itunda upumilye isongelyo anga nai ukinkiiye usese nai kumukuiye u Mukulu uYesu Kristo, unene ingi nyenyu, kina nihume kumukingila Itunda?

If therefore the like free-gift God gave unto them, as even unto us, when we had believed upon the Lord Jesus Christ, who was, I, that could withstand God?

18 Nai akija imakani aya, shanga ikasusha, ila akamulumbiilya Itunda nu kuligitya, Itunda upumilye ila itunu kunsoko ni awa anyaingu ga.”

And, having heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying—Hence, even unto the nations, God hath granted repentance unto life.

19 Uugwa ahuiili naza u lwago ai landiiye mu nsha ang'wa Stephano ai asapatie kupuma ku Yerusalemu- ahuiili awa akalongola kaheelu, kupikiila ku Foinike, Kipro ni Antiokia. Ai a atambuie kutula lukani lang'wa Yesu wing'wene ku Ayahudi nu sese ku muya nuili wihi.

They, therefore, who had been scattered abroad by reason of the tribulation that took place on account of Stephen, passed through as far as Phoenice and Cyprus and Antioch, unto no one speaking the word, save alone unto Jews.

20 Kuiti ang'wi ao ingi antu kupuma ku Kipro ni Krene, ai azile ku Antiokia nu kuligitya ni Ayunani nu kumutanantya uMukulu uYesu.

And there were some from among them, Cyprians and Cyrenians, who, indeed, coming unto Antioch, began speaking, even unto the Grecian Jews, announcing the glad tidings as to the Lord Jesus;

21 Nu mukono nua Mukulu ai watulaa palung'wi ni enso, ni antu idu akahuiila nu kumupilukila uMukulu.

And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number—they who believed—turned unto the Lord.

22 Makani ao akapika mu akutwi ni i tekeelo nila ku Yerusalemu; hangi akamulagiilya uBarnaba walongole kupikiila ku Antiokia.

And the matter was reported in the hearing of the assembly that was in Jerusalem, concerning them; and they sent forth Barnabas, as far as Antioch;

23 Nai wakapembya nu kihenga i ipegwa niang'wa Itunda ai wiloile; nu kua kinyila ihi kusaga nu Mukulu mu nkolo niao.

Who, arriving, and seeing the favour which was of God, rejoiced, and went on to beseech all, with the purpose of their heart, to abide [in] the Lord;

24 Ku nsoko ai watulaa muntu mukende hangi wizuiwe nu Ng'wau Ng'welu nu u huiili ni antu idu akongeeleka mu Mukulu.

Because he was a good man, and full of Holy Spirit and faith; and a considerable multitude were added unto the Lord.

25 Panyambele, uBarnaba ai ulongoe ku Tarso kumihenga uSauli.

He went away, however, unto Tarsus, to seek up Saul;

26 Nai wakamulija, akamuleta ku Antiokia. Ikatula ku ng'waka wihi akilundiila palung'wi ni itekeelo nu kuamanyisa antu idu. Ni amanyisigwa akitangwa akristo ku nkua a ng'wandyo uko ku Antiokia.

And, finding him, he brought him unto Antioch. And so it was with them, that, for a whole year, they were brought together in the assembly, and taught a considerable multitude; also that the disciples, first in Antioch, were called, Christians.

27 Nu mu mahiku aya anyakidagu akasima kupuma ku Yerusalemu kupikiila ku Antiokia.

Now, in these days, there came down from Jerusalem, prophets, unto Antioch.

28 Ung'wi ao ingi Agapo uu lina lakwe, akimika aze ulagiiwe nu Ng'wa Ngwelu kina nzala ntaki ikupumila mu unkumbigulu wihi. Iki ai kipumie itungo nula mahiku ang'wa Klaudio.

And one from among them, by name Agabus, rising up, gave a sign, through means of the Spirit, that, a great famine, was coming over all the inhabited earth; which, indeed, came to pass under Claudius.

29 Ku lulo, amanyisigwa, kila ung'wi nai ukendepilwe. ai alamue kutwala u aiilya ku anyandugu niakoli ku Uyahudi.

And, according as any one of the disciples was being prospered, they each one of them set apart [something] for ministering, to send unto the brethren, who dwelt in Jerusalem; —

30 Ai itumile iti; Ai atumile i mpia ku mukono wan'gwa Barnaba nu Sauli.

Which thing they also did, sending it unto the Elders, through the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
