Mitendo 2
1 Cwale izuva lya Pentecositi haliza, vonse vavena muchi baka chiswana.
When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together with one purpose.
2 Mwinako yonke chikweza mulumo uzwa kwi wulu uvu luhuho lye mbembwe lukando, mi chilweza kwizula inzuvo yonse iyo ivavali kwikere.
And suddenly a roar came out of the sky, like the rushing of a violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3 Chikweza kuvonahala kuvali malimi aswana uvu muliro uvali kukauhanywa, mi chiweza kuzimana hewulu lyo zumwi ni zumwi wavo.
Fiery tongues appeared and were distributed to them, and it [a tongue] landed on each one of them.
4 Vonso vave zuziwa Luhuho luNjolola mi chivatanga kuwamba mumishovo imwi, sina Luhuho lu Jolola mulubali kuva hera kuti vawambe.
And they were all filled with Holy Spirit and began to speak different languages, as the Spirit was granting to them to speak out.
5 Linu kubena Majunda vavali kwikala mwa Jerusalema, vakwame vavalumeri, ku zwirila kwikanda zonse zomwi konde lye wulu,
Now there were devout men, Jews, from every nation under heaven, dwelling in Jerusalem.
6 Uwu mulumo hauzuweka, chisi chivakezi hamwina mivavali kulyangene kakuli zumwi ni zumwiavali kuva zuwire chiba wambulula mumushovo wakwe.
So when that roar occurred, the crowd came together, and was bewildered, because each one was hearing them speaking to him in his own dialect.
7 Vavali ku komokwete ni mbemuka; chiva wamba, “Luli, kena kuti vonse aba bakwete kuwamba Magalireya?
So they were amazed and marveled, saying to one another: “Hey, aren't all these who are speaking Galileans?
8 Chinzi hakuchita kuti tuva zuwa, zumwi ni zumwi mumishovo yentu ituva zalirwa mwayo?
So how can each of us be hearing our own dialect in which we were born?
9 Patiani ni Medesi ni Elamitesi, ni vamwi vavali kuhala mwa Mesopotamiya, mwa Judeya ni Cappadocia, mwa Pontusi ni Asia,
Parthians and Medes and Elamites; those dwelling in Mesopotamia, in Judea and Cappadocia, in Pontus and Asia,
10 mwa Phygia ni Pamphylia, mwa Egepita ni muzibaka zimwi za Libiya kuama Cyrene, ni vapoti vavali kukazwa kwa Roma,
in Phrygia and Pamphylia, in Egypt and the parts of Libya adjoining Cyrene; and visitors from Rome—both Jews and proselytes—
11 Majunda ni maProselite, Cretanisi ni ma Arambu, tuva zuwa niva wambira mumi shovo yetu kuamana ni misevezi mikando ye Ireeza.”
Cretans and Arabians; we hear them declaring the great works of God in our own languages.”
12 Vavali kukomoketwe vonse ni kuchanama; chavati kuzumwi ni zumwi, “Kanti ichi chitalusa nzi?”
Yes they were all amazed and perplexed, saying one to another, “Whatever is going on?”
13 Kono bamwi chiva sheununa ni kuti, “Vakoletwe i waine ihya,”
But different ones were jeering, saying, “They are full of sweet wine!”
14 Kono Pitorosi chazimana nivena ikumi lyamaza overe ni yenke, cha katula linzwi lyakwe ni kuti kuvali, “Vantu vamwa Judeya nanwe mwense mwikala mwa Jerusalema, muzumine ichi chiziveke kwenu; mutekereze hande kumanzwi angu.
So Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and proclaimed to them: “Men—Jews and all who are dwelling in Jerusalem—let this be known to you; indeed, listen to my speech!
15 Kakuti ava vantu kava koletwe iwaine sina mumu hupulera, sina haili vulyo inanko ya kakusasani ke zuva.
Because these are not drunk, as you suppose (since it is only the third hour of the day),
16 Kono ichi jichona chiva wambitwe nji mupolofita Joele:
but this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:
17 'Kaive vulyo muma zuva okumamanikizo; Ireeza uti, 'Kani tire hasi Luhuho lwangu kuvantu vonse. Vaana venu ve chikwame ni ve chanakazi kava porofite, balombwana benu kava vone impono, mi vasupali benu vechi kwame kava lote ziloto.
‘It will be in the last days, says God: I will pour out from my Spirit upon all flesh; your sons and your daughters will prophesy; your young men will see visions; your old men will dream a dream.
18 Ni hewulu lyaba hikana vangu mwao mazuva kanitire hasi luhuho lwangu, mi kava porofite.
In those days I will indeed pour out from my Spirit upon my male slaves and upon my female slaves, and they will prophesy.
19 Kani vonise imakzo mwi wulu kuhitirila ni zisupo mwi nkanda hansi, malaha, ni muliro, ni vunsi mwibyubyulu.
I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below: blood and fire and smoke vapor.
20 Inzuva kali sandunke ka sikwe mi mwezi kuvoneka uvu malaha, pilio izuva ikando litiza lya Simwine nili seni kusika.
The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into ‘blood’ before the great and glorious day of the Lord will come.
21 Kaive kuti yense yo supa he zina lya Simwine kahanzwe'.
And it will be: whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved!’
22 Vantu va Isiraele, muzuwe aa manzwi: Jesu wa Nazareta, mukwame wava misepise kwenu Ireeza che zisupo zikando ni makazo ni zikomokisa izo Ireeza ava pangi chali mukati kenu, sina inwe muvene hamwizi-
“Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Natsorean, a man from God attested to you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by Him in your midst, as you yourselves well know,
23 chevaka lya mulelo u kolete ni kwizibahaza ni iseni kusika inako yakwe Ireeza, a vatambikiwa, mi inwe, cha manza abakwame basezi mulao, chiva mukokotera ni ku mwihaya;
Him—being delivered up by the established purpose and foreknowledge of God—you murdered, having taken Him with lawless hands and crucified Him;
24 iye Ireeza ava muvusi, hamana ku sumununa ku chinsa kwefu kwali, kakuli kena kuvali kuwoleka kuti a kwatwe kulili ifu.
whom God raised up, ending the labor pains of death, because it was not possible that He should be held by it.
25 Kakuli Davida ava wambi kuyamana naye, 'Ni va voni Simwine havusu bwangu, kakuti wikere kwimbali lye yanza lyangu lyachilinso iri kuti kanji ni nyangayiswa kamba kushimbululwa.
For David says concerning Him: ‘I always saw the Lord before my face, because He is at my right side so that I not be shaken.
26 Linu hanu inkulo yangu ivali kusangitwe mi lulimilwangu chi lwa yakalala. Hape, muvili wangu kawikale musepo.
Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue rejoiced. Furthermore, even my flesh will repose upon hope,
27 Kakuti kokafwe kusiya luhuho lwangu muvafwire, kamba kuzuminina wako yo Jolola kuti avone kuvola. (Hadēs g86)
because You will not abandon my soul in Hades, nor will You allow Your Holy One to see decay. (Hadēs g86)
28 Uvavonahazi kwangu inzira zovuhalo; koni pange kuti nizule kusangwa che chi fateho chako.'
You have made known to me roads of life; with Your presence You make me full of gladness.’
29 Vanakwetu, Ni wola kumiwambira cho vundume kuamana ni mupatirita Davida: uzo hape ava fwi ni kuzikiwa mi ikumbu lyakwe lisikere naswe ni sunu linu.
“Men, brothers, be it permitted to speak to you plainly about the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.
30 Cwalehe, avali muporofita mi avezi kuti Ireeza avali nkonki kwali cho kulisumina vuitamo kwali, kuti kazimike zumwi wavane hachi pura chovulena bwakwe.
So then, he being a prophet and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath that of the fruit, according to flesh, of his loins He would raise up the Messiah to sit on his throne,
31 Avatangi kuvona izi ni kutanga kuwamba kuama ni kuvuka kuva fwire kwa Keresite, 'Kena avazibalwa niku kungirwa muviri wakwe kukuvola.' (Hadēs g86)
he foreseeing this spoke about the resurrection of the Messiah, that His soul was not abandoned in Hades, nor did His flesh see decay. (Hadēs g86)
32 Uzu Jesu- Ireeza ava muvusi, aho twense twipanki.
“This Jesus God raised, to which we all are witnesses.
33 Cwale hacha mana kumuvusa nikuka muvika kwiyanza lyakwe lyo kuchiliso lyaIreeza mi hachitu tambwire isepiso yo Luhuho lu Jolola luzwa kwa Tayo, abe tiri hansi inzi, zimubwene ni kuzuwa.
Therefore, having been exalted to God's right hand, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He poured out this that you now see and hear.
34 Linu Davinda kena ava kambamini kwi wulu, kono uwamba, 'Simwine ava wambi kwa Simwine wangu, Wikale kwiyanza lyangu lye chiliso,
Further, David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says: ‘The Lord said to my Lord: Sit at my right hand
35 kusikira hasana kani pangire nzira zako kuva malyatiro a mantende ako.”'
until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.’
36 Hakuva vulyo, musiye inzubo ya Isiraele yonse izive handede kuti Ireeza ava mupangi hape kuva Simwine ni Keresite, uzu Jesu umuva nkankamizi.”
Therefore, let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made Him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified!”
37 Linu hachi vazuwa inzi, vava chisiwa mwi nkulo zavo, ni kuwamba kwa Pitorosi ni kuva lutwana vonse, nikuti, “Bakwetu, mutu pange nzi?”
Now upon hearing this they were cut to the heart and said to Peter, and the rest of the Apostles, “Men, brothers, what shall we do?!”
38 Mi Pitorosi cha nti kuvali, “” Muvakire zivi zenu mi mukolovezwe, zumwi ni zumwi wenu, mwizina lya Jesu Keresite iri kuti zivi zenu ziwonderwe, mi mumu amuhere impo yo Luhuho lu Jolola.
So Peter said to them: “Repent and be baptized, each one of you, upon the name of Jesus Christ, for forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 Ka kuti kwenu nji kuherwe insepiso ni kuvana venu ni kuvantu vonse vana vena kule, sina vantuvangi vonse vasana kasumpe Ireeza.”
For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all who are far away—as many, that is, as the Lord our God may call.”
40 Nicha ziwambo zingi cha paka nikuva kumbira; na nti, “Muli haze kuzwa kolu lusika luvilala.”
With many different words he both testified and kept exhorting, saying, “Escape from this perverse generation!”
41 Mi chiva tambula manzwi akwe mi chiva kolovezwa, mi kuva yekezwa mwelina inzuva valikana 3000 vantu kuvali.
Then those who gladly received his word were baptized, and that day about three thousand souls were added.
42 Chi vazwira havunsu ni tunto zavaapositola ni kulapera hamwina, ni muku cholola chikwa ni mwi tapero.
And they continued steadfastly in the Apostles' teaching and in the fellowship, both in the breaking of the bread and in the prayers.
43 Lyowa chilyeza hewulu lya Vantu vonse, mi zisupo zingi ni makazo ziva pangiwa kuva Apositola.
Fear came upon every soul—many wonders and signs were taking place through the Apostles.
44 Vonse vavazumini vavali kwina hamwina mi vavalikwina zintu ziswana mumi hupulo,
Now all who believed were together and had all things in common;
45 mi vava uzi zibya zabo zi vavali kukwete ni kuyavira ku vonse, kuyenderela ni muvali kusaka halira kuzumwi no zumwi.
they started selling both possessions and goods and were distributing to all according as anyone had need.
46 Cwale izuva ne zuva vavali ku zwira havusu ni muhupulo umwina mwi tempere, mi vavali kuchola chinkwa muma zuvo, mi vavali kuyavira zilyo cho kusangwa ni kukwatisana mwi nkulo;
So day by day they continued steadfastly with one purpose in the temple and broke bread from house to house; they received their share of food with gladness and singleness of heart,
47 vava rumbi Ireeza ni kuhewa chisemo kuvantu vonse, Mi Simwine avali kuyekeza kuvali inzuva nezuva avo vavali kusikuluha.
praising God and having favor with all the people. And day by day the Lord added to the Church those who were being saved.
