1 Ikajha kujha Apolo bho ajhe Korintho, Paulo apetili nyanda sya panani ni kufika mu mji bhwa Efeso, na akolili bhanafunzi kadhaa okhu.
Nibha ati Apollo aliga Ali Korinto, Paulo nalbha ingulu no kukinga mumusi gwa Efeso, nasanga abeigisibwa bhafuo eyo.
2 Paulo akabhajobhela, “Je mwapokili Roho mtakatifu bho mukyeriri?” Bhakan'jobhela, “Lepi, twabhwesilepi hata kup'eleka kuhusu Roho mtakatifu.”
Paulo nabhabwila “Angu, mwamulamie Mwoyo Mwelu mwejile mukekilisha?” Mbhamubwila, uli”. Chitatulile kumungwa ati alio Mwoyo mwelu.”
3 Paulo akajobha, “henu muenga mwabatisibhu bhuli? Bhakajobha, Mu bhubatisu bhwa Yohana.
Paulo aikile,” oli emwe mwabhatijibhe kutiki?” Mbhaika, “mubhubhatijo obhwa Yohana
4 Basi paulo akajibu, “Yohana abatisi kwa bhubatisu bhwa toba. Akabhajobhela bhanu bhala kujha bhilondeka kunkiera jhola ambajhe ngaahidili baada jha muene, yaani, Yesu.”
Mbe Paulo nasubhya,”Yohana abatijishe kwo obhubhatijo bho kuta. Nabhabhwila abhanu bhalya ati kubheile okumwikilisha uliya unu endaga okuja inyuma yae, unu Ali Yesu.”
5 Bhanu bho bhap'eliki habari ejhe, bhakabatisibhwa kwa lihina lya Bwana Yesu.
Abhanu Bhejile bhwongwa emisango jinu, nibhabhatijibhwa mwisina lya Latabugenyi Yesu.
6 Na jhikajhe Paulo bho abhekili mabhoko panani pa bhene, Roho mtakatifu akahida juu jha bhene ni kujhanda kunene kwa lugha ni kutabiri.
Anu paulo ejile abhatelako amabhoko gae, Mwoyo Mwelu nabhwejila igulu yebhwe no kwambha okwaika kwa jindimi no kubhalikisha.
7 Jumla jha bhene bhajhele bhaghosi jhapata kumi ni bhabhele.
Obhujumula bhwebhwe bhaliga bhalume bheile ekumi na bhabhili.
8 Paulo akalota kusinagogi akanena kwa bhujasiri kwa muda bhwa miesi midatu. Akajha ilongosya majadiliano ni kubhafuta bhanu kuhusu mambo ghaghihusu ufalme bhwa K'yara.
Paulo agendele mulikofyanyisho naika kwo bhubhasi kwo mwanya gwa mesi gasatu. Aliga nabhushanya nabho no kubhamenyesha emisango jinu jilengelee obhukama bha Nyamuanga.
9 Lakini Bhayahudi bhangi bhajhele bhakaidi na bhabhi belakutii, bhakajhanda kujobha mabhibhi kuhusu njela jha Kristu mbele jha bhumati. Basi Paulo akalekana nabhu ni kubhatenga bhabhikiera patali nabhu. Nu muene akajhanda kulongela kila ligono mu ukumbi bhwa Tirano.
Mbe nawe Abhayaudi abhandi bhaliga bhanyantongwa, bhabha okwaika amabhibhi ago kulubhana na injila ya Kristo imbhele ya liijo. Mbe Paulo asigene nabho no kwaukana nabhekilisha kula nabho. Mwenene nambha okwaika bhuli lunaku mu mwigalagalilo elya Tirano.
10 Ejhe jhayendelili kwa miaka mibhele, kwa hiyo bhoha bhakajha bhiishi ku Asia bhap'eliki lilobhi lya Bwana, bhoha Bhayahudi ni Bhayunani.
Linu lyagendelee kwa miaka ebhili, kulwejo bhona bhaliga bhekae mu Asia bhonguywe omusango gwa Latabugenyi, bhona abhayaudi na bhayunani.
11 K'yara akajha ibhomba mambo mabaha kumabhoko gha Paulo,
Nyamuanga aliga nakola bhikolwa bhikulu mu mabhoko ga Paulo,
12 Kwamba hata bhatamu bhaponyisibhu, ni roho bhabhibhi bhahomili wkati bho bhatolili leso ni ngobho sya sihomili mu mbele bhwa Paulo.
nolwo abhalwae, beulisibhe na bhemiyaga mibhibhi (amasambwa) nigasosibhwako, omwanya gunu bhagegele ebhitambhala ne myenda jinu jaliga jisokole ku mubhili gwa Paulo.
13 Lakini bhayele Bhayahudi bhapunga pepo bhakajha bhisafiri kupetela lieneo elu, bhakajha bhalalitumila lihina lya Ysu kwandabha jha matumizi gha bhene. Bhakajobhele bhala bhabhajheni pepo bhachafu: Bhakajobha, “Nikabhaarumuru mubhokayi kwa lihina lya Yesu ambaye Paulo akamhubiri.”
Mbe nawe bhaliga bhalio abhayaudi bhanu bhenamyaga amasabhwa. bhagendele okulabha olubhala olwo, bhaika lisina lya Yesu kulwa ingulu ye milimu jebhe abhene. Mbhabhabhwila bhanu bhaliga bhana amasabhwa mabhibhi; Mbhaika,” Enibhabhwila musokeko kwa lisina lya Yesu unu Paulo kamulasha.”
14 Bhabhakabhobi agha bhajhele bhana saba bha kuhani mbaha bhwa Kiyahudi, Sekewa.
Bhanu bhakolele ganu bhaliga bhalio bhana musanju bho mugabhisi mukulu we chiyaudi, Skewa.
15 Roho bhachafu bhakabhajibu, “Yesu ni mmanyili, ni Paulo ni mmanyili, lakini muene bha niani?”
Amasambhwa amabhibhi, Ngabhasubhya, “Yesu enimumenya, na Paulo enimumenya; Nawe emwe mulibhaga?”
16 Roho nchafu jhola mugati mwa munu akabhanukila bhapunga pepo ni kubhatola nghofu ni kubhatosha. Ndipo bhakajumba kuhoma mu nyumba jhela bhakajha ngoli ni kujeruhibhwa.
Lisabhwa libhibhi lilya linu lyaliga lili munda yo munu nilibhachumila abhenamya bhalya nilibhaiga kwa mananga no kubhabhuma. Niwo nibhabhilima okusoka mu nyumbha ilya bhali tuyu no kuutasibhwa.
17 Lijambo ele lyamanyikene kwa bhoha, Bhayahudi ni Bhayunani, ambabho bhatamili okhu Efeso. Bhakajha ni hofu sana ni lihina lya Bwana lyazidili kuheshimibhwa.
Omusango gunu ngumenyekana ku bhona, ku bhayaudi na abhayunani, bhanu bhaliga bhekae eyo Efeso. Mbhabha no bhubha bhafu, na lisina lya Latabugenyi niliyongesha echibhalo.
18 Kabhele, bhingi bha bhaumini bhahidili ni kuungama na bhadhihirishi matendo mabhibhi bhaghabhombili.
Nawe abhafu bha bekilisha Bhejile nibhegambha no kwielesha ebhikolwa ebhibhibhi bhinu bhakolele.
19 Bhingi bhabhombeghe uganga bhabhongeniye fitabu fya bhene, bhekafinyanya mbele jha kila munu. Bwakati bhene bhibhalanga thamani jha fenu efu, jhajhele fipandi hamsini elfu fya hela.
Abhafu bhanu bhaliga nibhakola obhufumu bhakumanya ebhitabho bhyebhwe, mbhabhyocha imbele ya bhuli munu. Omwanya gunu bhabhalile ku bhinu ebhyo, nibhikiga bhiumbi makumi gatanu ga jimpirya.
20 Efyo lilobhi lya Bwana lyajhenili kwa upana sana kwa ngofu.
Kulwejo omusango gwa Latabugenyi niguswila kwo bhafu na managa.
21 Jha Paulo kukamilisya huduma jha muene khola Efeso, Roho akandongosya kulota Yerusalemu kupetela Makedonia ni Akaya; Akajobha, “Baada jha kujha okhu, jhilondeka kulota Rumi kabhele.”
Paulo nakumisha obhusakisi bhae eyo Efeso, Mwoyo namutangasha okuja Yerusalemu okulabha Makedonia na Akaya; naika, “Ejile akabhayo eyo kunyiileno okuilola Rumi ona.”
22 Paulo akabhalaghisya Makedonia bhanafunzi bha muene bhabhele, Timotheo ni Erasto, ambabho bhajhele bhan'saidili. Lakini muene asiele Asia kwa muda.
Paulo nabhatuma Makedonia abheigisibhwa bhae bhabhili, Timotheo na Erasto, abho bhaliga nibhamusakila. Nawe omwene enyele nasigala Asia kwo mwanya.
23 Wakati obhu kwatokili ghasia mbaha okhu Efeso kuhusu njela jhela.
Omwanya ogwo nibhonekana ijogele Nene eyo Efeso okulubhana na abha injila ilya.
24 Sonara mmonga lihina lya muene Demetrio, ambajhe atengenisi fisanamu fya hela fya K'yara Diana, aletili biashara mbaha kwa mafundi.
Masika umwi lisina lyae Demetrio, unu akonjele ebhisusano bhya jimpirya bya Diana mungu, aletele ebhona enene kubhabhuya.
25 Efyo akabhabhonganiya mafundi bha mbombo ejhu ni kujobha, “Bhaheshimibhwa, mmanyili kujha mu biashara ejhe tete twijhingisya hela simehele.
Kwibhyo nabhakumanya abhabhuya bhwe milimu ejo no kwaika, “Bhakulu, mumenyele ati mu mabhona ganu eswe echingisha mpilya nyafu.
26 Mwilola ni kupeleka kujha, si apa tu Efeso, bali karibia Asia jhioha, Paulo ojho abhashawishi ni kubhageusya bhanu bhingi. Ijobha kujha ijhelepi miungu ambayo jhibhombiki kwa mabhoko.
Omulola no kungwa ati atalyanwila Efeso, jiswilile Asia yona, Paulo unu kabhakogya no kubhaindula bhanu bhafu. kaikati bhitaliyo bhimungu bhinu ebhikolwa na mabhoko.
27 Na sio tu jhijhele hatari kujha biashara jha tete jhibetakujha jhilondeka lepi, lakini kabhele ni hekalu lya K'yara n'dala jha ajhe mbaha Diana ibhwesya kutolibhwa kujha ajhelepi ni maana. Kabhele ngaabhwesili hata kujhasya ubhaha bhwa muene, muene ambajhe Asia ni dunia bhakamwabudu.”
Atali ati ilio itambala amabhona geswe gatakuja kwendibhwa lindi. Nawe ona mu yekalu ya mungu mugasi unu Ali mkulu Diana unu katula okugegwa atali na nsonga. Akatulile nolwo okubhusha obhukulu bhae, omwene oyo Asia ne Chalo echimlamya.”
28 Bho bhapeliki agha, bhamemibhu ni ligoga ni kujhuegha, bhakajobha, “Diana ghwa bhaefeso ndo mbaha.”
bhejile bongwa ganu mbejusibhwa ne bhinyiga bhabhuma injogele, mbhaika, “Diana wa Bhaefeso Ni mkulu.”
29 Mji bhuoha bhwameli ligoga, ni bhanu bhakajumba pamonga mugati mu ukumbi bhwa michezo. Bhakabhakamila bhasafiri bhajhinu ni Paulo, Gayo ni Aristariko, bhabhahomili Makedonia.
Omusi gwona nguyobhegana, abhanu bhabhilima amwi mwigalagalilo lyo bwenywa. Mbhabhagwata abhalibhasi bhejabho na Paulo, Gayo na Aristariko, bhanu bhasokele Makedonia.
30 Paulo alondeghe kujhingila mu umati bhwa bhanu, lakini bhanafunzi bhakambesya.
Paulo aliga nenda okwingila mwiijo lya bhanu, nawe abheigisibhwa bhamuganyishe.
31 Kabhele, baadhi jha maafisa bha mkoa ghwa Asia ambabho bhajhele marafiki bha muene bhakandetela ujumbe kwa nghofo kunsoka asijhingili mu ukumbi bhwa michezo.
Abhakulu abhandi one abha limimbho lya Asia bhanu bhaliga bhali bhasani bhae mbhamusilila emisango ja managa ago kumusabhwa ataja kwingila mwigalagalilo lyo obhwenywa.
32 Baadhi jha bhanu bhakajha bhijobha khenu ekhe ni bhangi lijambo lela, kwa ndabha umati bhwa bhanu bhwachanganyikibhu bhingi bhabhwesilepi hata kumanya kwandayakiki bhahidi pamonga.
Abhanu abhandi bhaliga nibhaika echinu chinu na abhandi omusango gulya, kunsonga liijo lya bhanu lyaliga lyasalile. KU bhafu bhwebhwe bhatatulile kumenya kulwaki bhejie amwi.
33 Bhayahudi bhakandeta Iskanda kwibhala jha umati bhwa bhanu ni kumbeka panani mbele jha bhanu. Iskanda akapisya ishara kwa kibhoko kya muene kupisya majhelesu kwa bhanu.
Abhayaudi nibhamuleta Iskanda anja ya liijo lyabhanu no kumuta imbhele ya bhanu. Iskanda nasosha echibhalikisho kwo kubhoko kwo kusosha amelesho ku bhanu.
34 Lakini bho bhamanyili kujha muene Myahudi, bhoha bhajhwegili kwa sauti jhimonga kwa muda ghwa masaa mabhele, “Diana ndo mbaha ghwa Bhaefeso.”
Mbe nawe bhejile bhamenya ati mwenene Ni Muyaudi, bhona nibhayogana kwo bhulaka bhumwi kuti mwanya gwa saa ebhili, Diana Ni mukulu wa Bhaefeso.”
35 Baada jha karani ghwa mji kubhugudamisya umati, ajobhili, 'Muenga bhagosi bha Efeso, niani jha amanyilepi mji obho bhwa Efeso ndo ntunzaji ghwa hekalu lya Diana mbaha ni picha jhela jhajhaguili kuhomela kumbinguni?
Omwandiki wo musi ejile alijibhisha liijo, naika, “Emwe abhalume abha Efeso, niga unu atakumenya ati Omusi gunu ogwa Efeso gubhikile liyekalu elya Diana mukulu ne chisusano chinu chaguye okusoka mu lwile?
36 Kulola kujha mambo agha ghibhwesekakalepi, twilondeka kujha ni utulivu na msibhombi kyokyoha kwa haraka.
Okulola ati emisango jinu jitakutulikana, kuchiile okucholela mtaja kukola Chona chona kwo bhwangu.
37 Kwandabha mubhakutili bhanu abha pa mahakama ambabho bhah'ejilepi bha hekalu wala sio bha kun'kufuru K'yara watete n'dala.
Kulwo kubha mubhabhilikie abhanu bhanu Anu mwilamulilo kenu bhatali bhefi bha iyekalu nolwo bhatali bho kumufuma mungu weswe omgasi.
38 Henu, kama Demetrio ni mafundi bhabhajhe pamonga nabhu bhajhe ni mashtaka dhidi jha munu jhejhioha, mahakama sijhewazi ni maliwali bhajhele. Na bhaletibhwayi mbele jha shauri.
Kulwejo, Alabha Demetrio na bhabhuya bhanu bhali amwi nage bhano musango gunu gutasikene na munu wona wona, lilamulilo lili abhwelu na abhatwale bhalio. Mbe mbhasilwe imbhele bhajo temelwa echina.
39 Lakini kama bhebhe wilonda kyokyoha kuhusu mambo ghangi, ghibeta kushughulikibhwamu kikao halali.
Mbe nawe Alabha awe ouiga Chona chona okulubhana ne misngo jindi ejija okufulubhendelwa ne chinyanjo che chimali.
40 Kwa kweli tujhele mu hatari jha kutuhumibhwa kuhusu ghasia ligono ele. Ijhelepi sababu jha machafuko agha na kubetakujha ni uwezo bhwa kughajhelesya.
Nchimali chili mu ntambhala yo kwinganilisibhwa kubhibhi okulubhana na injogele yo lunaku lunu. Italio nsonga yona yona yo bhunyamusi bhunu, na chitakutula kubha no bhutulo bho kugelesha. 41
41 Baada jha kujobha agha, abhatawenye makutano.
Ejile amala okwaika ganu, nanyalambhula elikofyanya.
