Matendo ya Mitume 18
1 Baada jha mambo agha, Paulo akabhoka Athene kulota Korintho.
After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;
2 Okhu akankabha myahudi jhaakutibhweghe Akwila munu ghwa kabila lya Ponto, muene ni n'dala munu jhaakutibhweghe Prisila bhahidili kuhoma okhu Italia, kwandabha Klaudia aamuiri bhayahudi bhoha bhabhokayi Roma; Paulo akahida kwa bhene;
And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome: ) and came to them.
3 Paulo aishili ni kubhomba mbombo nabhu kwani muene ibhomba mbombo jhajhiwaningana nijha bhene. Bhene bhajhele bhatengenesya mahema.
And because he was of the same craft, he stayed with them, and worked: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.
4 Paulo ajadiliene nabhu mu sinagogi kila ligono lya sabato. Abhashawishili bhayahudi pamonga ni Bhagiriki.
And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.
5 Lakini Sila ni Timotheo bhobhahidili kuhoma Makedonia, Paulo asukumibhu ni Roho kubhashuhudila bhayahudi kujha Yesu ndo Kristu.
And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Christ.
6 Wakati bhayahudi bham'belili ni kumdhihakili, hivyo Paulo akung'uindi liguanda lya muene mbele jha bhene, ni kubhajobhela, “Damu jha jhomu na jhijhelayi panani pa mitu gha jhomu mwebhene; Nene nijhelepi ni hatia. Kuhomela henu ni kujhendelela, nikabhalotela mataifa.”
And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his raiment, and said to them, Your blood be on your own heads; I am clean; from now on I will go to the Gentiles.
7 Efyo akabhoka kuhoma pala akalola kunyumba jha TitoYusto, munu jheakamwabudu K'yara. Nyumba jha muene jhihele karibu ni sinagogi.
And he departed there, and entered into a certain man’s house, named Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue.
8 Kripo, ndongo si ghwa sinagogi pamonga ni bhanu bha panyumba jha muene bhamwamini Bwana. Bhanu bhingi Bhakorintho bho bhampeliki Paulo ilongela bhakyeriri ni kubatifibhwa.
And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized.
9 Bwana akan'jobhela Paulo pakilu kwa njela jha maono, “Usitil, lakini longelayi na usigudami.
Then spoke the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not your peace:
10 Kwani nene nijhe pamonga nabbi, naajhelepi jhaibetakukudhuru, maana nijhe ni bhanu bhingi katika mjiabho.”
For I am with you, and no man shall set on you to hurt you: for I have much people in this city.
11 Paulo atamili okhu kwa muda bhwa mwaka umonga ni miesi sita akajhaimanyisya lilobhi lya K'yara miongoni mwa bhene.
And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
12 Lakini Gali bho abhombibhu mtawala bhwa Akaya, Bhayahudi bhakayema pamonga kinyume ni Paulo ni kumpeleka mbele jha kiti kya hukumu,
And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,
13 Bhakajobha, “Munu ojho akabhashawishi bhanu kumwabudu K'yara kinyume kya sheria”
Saying, This fellow persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.
14 Bhwakati Paulo alondghe kujobha, gailo akabhajobhela Bhayahudi, Muenga Bhayahudi, kama ngalijhe likosa au bhuhalifu, ngajhijhe halali kubhashughulikila.
And when Paul was now about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O you Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:
15 Lakini kwandabha ndo maswali ghaghihusu malobhi ni mahina ni sheria sya muenga basi muhukumulayi mwe bhene. Nene ninoghelalepi kujha hakimu kwa habari jha mambo aghu.”
But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law, look you to it; for I will be no judge of such matters.
16 Galio akabhaamuru bhabhokayi mbele jha kiti kya hukumu,
And he drove them from the judgment seat.
17 Efyo, bhakan'kamula Sosthene ndongosighwa sinagogi, bhakantobha mbele jha kiti kya hukumu. Lakini Galio ajalilepi kya bhabhombili.
Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things.
18 Paulo baada jha kutama pala kwa muda mrefu, akabhaleka ndugu ni kulota kwa meli Siria pamonga ni Prisila ni Akwila. Kabla jha kubhoka pa bandari, akaili njuili sya muene kwani ajhele alapili kujha mnadhiri.
And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brothers, and sailed there into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.
19 Bhebhafikili Efeso, Paulo akandeka Prisila ni Akwila pala lakini muene akajhingila mu sinagogi ni kujadili ni Bhayahudi.
And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.
20 Bhobhan'jobhili Paulo atama nabhu kwa muda mrefu muene abelili.
When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;
21 Lakini akabhoka kwa bhene akabhajobhela, “Nibetakukerebhuka kabhele kwa jhomu, ikajhiajhi ndo mapenzi gha K'yara. Baada jhe hapu, akabhoka kwa meli kuhoma Efeso.
But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that comes in Jerusalem: but I will return again to you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.
22 Paulo bho atolili Kaisaria, akakuela kulota kujhemelela kanisa lya Antikia.
And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.
23 Baada jha lutama kwa muda mrefu pala, Paulo akabhoka kupetela maeneo gha Galataia ni Frigia ni kubhapela muoyo bhanafunzi bhoha.
And after he had spent some time there, he departed, and went over all the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.
24 Myahudi mmonga jhaakutibhweghe Apolo, jhaahogoliki okhu Alexandria, ahidi Efeso. Ajhele ni ufasaha katika kulongela ni hodari ghwa majhandiku.
And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.
25 Apolo ajheajhelekesibhu kumafundisu gha Bwana. Kwa jinsi kyaajhe ni bidiii ku roho, alongili ni kumanyisya kwa usahihi, mamabo ghaaghakan'husu Yesu, ila amanyi tu ubatizo bhwa Yohana.
This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spoke and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.
26 Apolo akajhanda kulongela kwa ujasiri mu mahekalu. Lakini Prisila ni Akwila bhobhapeliki bhabheki urafiki ni muene ni kunjelekesya juu jha njela sya K'yara kwa usahihi.
And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him to them, and expounded to him the way of God more perfectly.
27 Bho anoghila kubhoka kulota Akaya, bhalongomunu bhakampela muoyo nikubhalembela barua bhanafunzi bhabhajhe Akaya ili bhakabhayi kumpokela. Bhoafikilili kwa neema abhasaidili sana bhala bhabhakyeriri.
And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brothers wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them much which had believed through grace:
28 Kwa ngofu sya muene ni maarifa Apolo abhazidili Bhayahudi hadharani akajhailasya kupetela majhandiku gha kujha Yesu ndo Kristu.
For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publicly, showing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.
