Mitendo 18

1 Ha kumana izi Paulusi nazwa mwateni ni kuya kwa Atene kwa Korinte.

After these thinges, Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinthus,

2 Na kawana Mujuda we zina lya Akila, ya bali ku pepiwa mwa Pento ka mushobo; Njabali kukazwa kwa Italia ni mwi habwe Pulisila, ni Kilawudiya nalayera ma Juda bonse kuti vazwe mwa Roma; Mi Paulusi ava kezi kubali.

And found a certaine Iewe named Aquila, borne in Pontus, lately come from Italie, and his wife Priscilla (because that Claudius had commanded all Iewes to depart from Rome) and he came vnto them.

3 Paulusi Abali kuseveza musevezi uswana navo aba kali navo. Vavali bvapangi vama tente.

And because hee was of the same crafte, he abode with them and wrought (for their crafte was to make tentes.)

4 Linu Paulusi lwe sabata ni lwe sabata abali ku yanga mu masinangonge. Avali kuhambirikiza vonse majuda ni Magerike bazumene.

And he disputed in the Synagogue euery Sabbath day, and exhorted the Iewes, and the Grecians.

5 kono Sila ni Timotea habasika kukazwa kwa Macedonia. Paulusi avali kuyendiswe Luhuho kuwambira ma Junda kuti Jesu jiyena Keresite.

Now when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul, forced in spirit, testified to the Iewes that Iesus was the Christ.

6 Aho Majunda hava mulwisa ni kumutuka, Paulusi cha zukutula chizwato chakwe ni kuwamba kuvali, “Malaha enu ave he wulu lye mitwi yenu; Kanina mulandu. kuzwa hanu muniyende ku Bamachava.”

And when they resisted and blasphemed, he shooke his raiment, and saide vnto them, Your blood be vpon your owne head: I am cleane: from henceforth will I goe vnto the Gentiles.

7 Nakatuka aho naya muzumbo ya Tetius Justusi mukwame yavali ku lapela Ireeza. Inzubo yakwe yibene hafwihi ni sinagoge.

So he departed thence, and entred into a certaine mans house, named Iustus, a worshipper of God, whose house ioyned hard to the Synagogue.

8 Krisiposi, muyendisi we sinangonge ni vonse vo luhasi lwakwe mwa Simwine. Vungi bwa Makorite vava zuwi Paulusi vava zumini ni kukolovezwa.

And Crispus the chiefe ruler of the Synagogue, beleeued in the Lord with all his housholde: and many of the Corinthians hearing it, beleeued and were baptized.

9 Simwine na wamba kwa Paulusis masiku mu chiloto, “Kanzi utiyi, kono u wambe kanzi u ntontoli.

Then saide the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Feare not, but speake, and holde not thy peace.

10 Ka kuti nina nawe, mi ka kwina yete aku holofaze, kakuti nina bantu bangi mowu muleneñi.”

For I am with thee, and no man shall lay handes on thee to hurt thee: for I haue much people in this citie.

11 Paulusi a ba hali mwa teni chilimo ni myezi imana iyanza ni ka mwina na luta linzwi lya Ireeza mukati kabo.

So he continued there a yeere and six moneths, and taught ye worde of God among them.

12 Kono Galio haba mubusi wa Akaiya, Majuda ni ba zimana ku lwisa Paulusi ni ku muleta ha busu bwa chipula cha mu atuli;

Now when Gallio was Deputie of Achaia, the Iewes arose with one accorde against Paul, and brought him to the iudgement seate,

13 Nibawamba “Uzu mukwame ukwete kushonga vantu kulapera Ireeza yasa yendereri ni mulao.”

Saying, This fellow persuadeth me to worship God otherwise then the Lawe appointeth.

14 Mi Paulusi si hacava kuti awambe, Galio mubusisi nawamba kumajuda nati,”inwe Majunda, haiva initi ivali indava yo mulandu kamba vuvangamwa, nikuva zuweki kumiha mulandu.

And as Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio saide vnto the Iewes, If it were a matter of wrong, or an euill deede, O ye Iewes, I would according to reason maintaine you.

15 Kono sina inzi ipuzo ze ziyambo ni mazina ni milao yenu, muzi wambole inwe muvene. kani saki kuva muatuli wezi indava.”

But if it bee a question of woordes, and names, and of your Lawe, looke yee to it your selues: for I will be no iudge of those things.

16 Galio chava zwisa hanze ye chipura che inkatulo.

And hee draue them from the iudgement seate.

17 Cwale vonse ni chivakwata Sositene, muvusi we sinagoge, ni kumu kabila havusu bwe chipura che nkatulo. Kono Galio kena ava vileli chi va ba pangi.

Then tooke al the Grecians Sosthenes the chiefe ruler of the Synagogue, and beat him before the iudgement seat: but Gallio cared nothing for those things.

18 Pauluci cinga e kala kwateni mazubazana, cha siya vakwakwe ni kuzuhira kwa Siriya ni Purisila ni Akwila. Naseni kuyenda irizo, Senichiriya, ava ngukisi i sunki zakwe kakuti ava hindite vuitamo bye chi Nazareta.

But when Paul had taried there yet a good while, hee tooke leaue of the brethren, and sailed into Syria (and with him Priscilla and Aquila) after that he had shorne his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vowe.

19 Hachiva sika mwa Maefese, Paulusi cha siya Purisila ni Aquila mwateni, kono iye cha yenda mwi sinangonge ni kuka ambolisana ni Majunda.

Then hee came to Ephesus, and left them there: but hee entred into the Synagogue and disputed with the Iewes.

20 Hachiva kumbire Paulusi kwi kala navo kavaka zana, chakana.

Who desired him to tarie a longer time with them: but he would not consent,

21 Kono hacha yenda kwi pumulo, ava wambira, “Kanika mi vole hape kwenu haiva itato ye Ireeza.” Linu cha zuha kuzwa kwa Maifese.

But bade the farewel, saying, I must needes keepe this feast that commeth, in Hierusalem: but I will returne againe vnto you, if God will. So he sailed from Ephesus.

22 Paulusi haka sika he rizo lya Caseriya, chayenda ni kuka lumerisa inkereke za mwa Jerusalema mi hape cha kwa Atiyoki.

And when hee came downe to Cesarea, he went vp to Hierusalem: and when he had saluted the Church, he went downe vnto Antiochia.

23 Hache kere inko zana kwateni, Paulusi cha katuka nayenda mukanda muzikiriti za Galatia ni Firigiya ni kususuweza varutiwa vonse.

Nowe when he had taried there a while, he departed, and went thorowe the countrey of Galatia and Phrygia by order, strengthening all the disciples.

24 Kubena mujuda ya va pepelwa mu Alexandria we zina lya Apolosi, avakezi kwa Maefese. Mi mukwame ya vali kwamba hande ni kwiziva mañolo.

And a certaine Iewe named Apollos, borne at Alexandria, came to Ephesus, an eloquent man, and mightie in the Scriptures.

25 Apolosi avali ku rutitwe mwi tuto za Simwine. Kwi ziva muluhuho, ava wambi ni kuruta hande zintu kuamana Jesu, kono avali kwizi vulyo inkolobezo ya Johani.

The same was instructed in the way of the Lord, and hee spake feruently in the Spirite, and taught diligently the things of the Lord, and knew but the baptisme of Iohn onely.

26 Apolosi chatanga kuwamba cho vundume muma sinangonge. Kono Purisila ni Aquila hava muzuwa, chivali panga chilikani naye ni kumutorokera ze zira ye Ireeza cho kumu swanelelela.

And he began to speake boldely in the Synagogue. Whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they tooke him vnto them, and expounded vnto him the way of God more perfectly.

27 Linu hali takaleza kuya kwa Akiya, va na kwakwe ni va mususuweza ni ku ñolela valutiwa mwa Akaiya kuti va mu tambule. Hasika, na tusa ahulu vava zumine cha chishemo.

And when hee was minded to goe into Achaia, the brethren exhorting him, wrote to the disciples to receiue him: and after hee was come thither, he holpe them much which had beleeued through grace.

28 Apolosi he nkanza cha komokisa Majunda cha ziho zakwe ni vuchaziva, cha kutondeza cha mañolo kuti Jesu avali nji Keresite.

For mightily hee confuted publikely the Iewes, with great vehemencie, shewing by the Scriptures, that Iesus was that Christ.
