Matendo ya Mitume 20
1 Baada jha ghasia kumalika, Paulo akabhakuta bhanafunzi ni kubhapela muoyo. Kisha kubhalagha ni kubhoka kulota Makedonia.
And after the uproar was ceased, Paul called to him the disciples, and embraced them, and departed for to go into Macedonia.
2 Ni muene bho apetili mikoa ejhu na akajha akabhapela muoyo bhaamini, akajhingila Uyunani.
And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much exhortation, he came into Greece,
3 Baada jha muene kujha pala kwa muda ghwa miesi midatu njama syaundibhu dhidi jha muene ni bhayahudi bho bhapeliki ikaribila kubhoka ku njela jha bahari kulotela Shamu, hivyo jhandondiki kukerebhuka kupetela Makedonia.
And there stayed three months. And when the Jews laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria, he purposed to return through Macedonia.
4 Bhaandamene naku hadi Asia bhajhele Sopatro, mwana ghwa Pirho kuhoma Berea; Aristariko ni Sekundo, bhoha kuhoma bhaamini bha Bhathesalonike; Gayo ghwa Derbe; Timotheo; Tikiko ni Trofimo kuhoma Asia.
And there accompanied him into Asia Sopater of Berea; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheus; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.
5 Lakini bhanu abha bhamalikulongolela na bhatulendeleghe kula Troa.
These going before tarried for us at Troas.
6 Kwa njela jha bahari kuhoma Filipi baada jha magono gha mikate ghyaghisopibhu lepi chachu, ni mu magono mahanu twabhafikili okhu Troa. Twatamili okhu kwa magono saba.
And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came to them to Troas in five days; where we stayed seven days.
7 Hata ligono lya kuanza lya juma, bho tubhonganiki pamonga ili kuumetula n'kate, Paulo alongelili ni bhaumini. Akajha apangili kubhoka ligono lya kilabhu lyake, Efyo akajhendelela kulongela hadi kiru kya manane.
And on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached to them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.
8 Kwajhele ni taa simehele mu kichumba kya panani ambapo twajhele tubhonganiki pamonga.
And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were gathered together.
9 Mu ridirisha ajhele atamili n'songolo mmonga lihina lya muene Utiko, ambajhe uelemibhu ni lugono. Hata Paulo bho ihutubila kwa muda mrefu, n'songolo ojho, ajhele amalikugona, akabina pasi kuhoma ghorofa jha tatu na aholibhu bho amalikufwa.
And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul was long preaching, he sunk down with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead.
10 Lakini Paulo akaselela pasi akinyosi muene panani pa muene, akan'kumbatila. Kisha akajobha, “Msikati tamaa kwandabha ujhe hai.”
And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Trouble not yourselves; for his life is in him.
11 Kisha akakwela kabhele ghorofani na akaumetula n'kate akalya. Baada jha kulongela nabhu kwa muda mrefu hadi lubhuliku, akabhoka.
When he therefore was come up again, and had broken bread, and eaten, and talked a long while, even till break of day, so he departed.
12 Bhakandeta n'songolo jhola ajhe muomi bhafarijiki sana.
And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.
13 Twebhene twalongolili palongolo jha Paulo kwa meli ni kulota Aso, ambapo tete tulondeghe kun'tola Paulo okhu. Ekhe ndo muene kyaalondeghe kubhomba, kwandabha apangi kubhomba kulota kupetela pandema.
And we went before to ship, and sailed to Assos, there intending to take in Paul: for so had he appointed, minding himself to go afoot.
14 Bhoatufikili okhu Aso, twampaki mu meli tukalota Mitilene.
And when he met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene.
15 Kisha tete tukatweka kuhoma okhu na ligono lya bhubhele twafikili lubhafu lwa bhubhele bhwa kisiwa kya Kio. Ligono lyalyafwatili twafikili kisiwa kya Samo, ni kilabhu jhiake twafikili mji bhwa Mileto.
And we sailed there, and came the next day over against Chios; and the next day we arrived at Samos, and tarried at Trogyllium; and the next day we came to Miletus.
16 Kwandabha Paulo aamuili kusafiri kup'etela Efeso, ili kwamba asitumili muda bhwobhwoha mu Asia; kwandabha ajhe ni hangara jha kubhwahi Yerusalemu kwandabha jha sikukuu jha Pentekoste, kama ngajhibhwesekene muene kubhomba naha.
For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, because he would not spend the time in Asia: for he hurried, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost.
17 Kuhoma Mileto akalaghisya bhanu hadi Efeso ni kubhakuta bhaseya bhakanisa.
And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church.
18 Bho bhafikili kwa muene akabhajobhela, muenga mwebhene mmanyili kuhoma ligono lya kuanza bho nikanyi apaAsia, jinsi kyanijhe kwa muenga muda bhuoha.
And when they were come to him, he said to them, You know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all seasons,
19 Nintumikili Bwana kwa unyenyekevu bhoha ni kwa mahosi, ni mateso ghaghanikabhili nene kwa hila sya bhayahudi.
Serving the LORD with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews:
20 Mmanyilijinsi ambafyo nakizuililepi kutangasya kwa muenga khenu kyokyoha ambakyo kyajhele muhimu, na jinsi nene kyanibhemenyisi waziwazi na kabhele kulota nyumba kwa nyumba.
And how I kept back nothing that was profitable to you, but have showed you, and have taught you publicly, and from house to house,
21 Mumanyili jinsi nene kyanikajhendelili kubhaonya bhayahudi ni bhayunani juu jha toba kwa K'yara ni imani kwa Bwana bhitu Yesu.
Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
22 Na henu, mulangayi, nene, nikantii Roho mtakatifu kulotela Yerusalemu, nisighamanyi mambo ambagho ghibetakunitokela nene okhu,
And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
23 ila kwa kujha Roho mtakatifu ikanishuhudila nene mu khila mji na ijobha kujha minyororo ni malombosi ndo fikanilendela.
Save that the Holy Ghost witnesses in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.
24 Lakini nene nafikiriri lepi kujha maisha ghangu ndo kwa njela jhojhioha jha thamani kwa nene, ili nibhwesiajhi kumala mwendo bhwangu ni huduma jhenipokili kuhoma kwa Bwana Yesu, kushuhudila injili jha neema jha K'yara.
But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear to myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
25 Ni henu, langayi, nimanyili kujha bhoha, miongoni mwa bhala bhanitolili kubhahubiri Ufalme, mwibetalepi kunibhona pamihu kabhele.
And now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
26 Kwa hiyo nikabhashuhudila lelu ejhe, kujha nijhelepi ni hatia ni damu jha munu jhejhioha jhola.
Why I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men.
27 Kwandabha nakizuili lepi kubhatangasila mapenzi ghoha gha K'yara.
For I have not shunned to declare to you all the counsel of God.
28 Kwa hiyo mujhelayi mwebhaangalifu juu jha jhomu mwibhene, ni juu jha likundi lyoha ambalyo Roho mtakatifu abhabhekili muenga kujha bhaangalizi. Mujhelayi bhaangalifu kulilolela likusanyiku lya Bwana ambalyo alihemili kwa damu jha muene.
Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost has made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he has purchased with his own blood.
29 Nimanyili kujha baada jha kubhoka kwa nene mbwa mwitu bhakali bhibheta kujhingila kwa muenga, na bhasilihurumili likundi.
For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 Nimanyili kwamba hata miongoni mwa jhomu mwebhene baadhi jha bhanu bhibeta kuhida ni kujobha mambo manofulepi, ili kubhafuta bhanafunzi bhabhakesiajhi bhene.
Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
31 Henu, mujhelayi mihu. Mukhombokayi kujha kwa miaka midatu nalekilepi kubhafundisha kila mmonga bhinu kwa mahosi kiru ni pamusi.
Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.
32 Ni henu nene nikabhakabisi kwa K'yara, ni kwa lilobhi lya neema jha muene, ambalyo libhwesya kubhajenga ni kubhapela urithi pamonga nabhu bhoha bhabhabhekibhu bhakfu kwa K'yara.
And now, brothers, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
33 Natamanilepi hela, dhahabu, au maguanda.
I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel.
34 Mmanyili mwebhene kujha mabhoko agha inipelili mahitaji ghangu nejhoni ni mahitaji gha bhala bhabhajhe pamonga nani.
Yes, you yourselves know, that these hands have ministered to my necessities, and to them that were with me.
35 Mu mambo agha nabhapelili mfano bhwa jinsi kyajhilondeka kubhasaidila bhanyonge kwa kubhomba mbombo, na jinsi kyamwilondeka kukhomboka malobhi gha Bwana Yesu, malobhi ambagho muene ajobhili: “Heri kupisya kuliko kupokela.”
I have showed you all things, how that so laboring you ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
36 Baada jha kujobha namna ejhe, apigili magoti akas'oka pamonga nabhu.
And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all.
37 Bhoha bhakalela sana ni kumbinila Paulo mu n'singu ni kumbusu.
And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul’s neck, and kissed him,
38 Bhahuzuniki zaidi jha ghoha kwandabha jha khela ambakyo ajobhili, kwamba kamwe bhibetalepi kubhubhona uso bhwa muene kabhele. Kisha bhakan'sindikila Merikebuni.
Sorrowing most of all for the words which he spoke, that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship.
