Ebikolwa by’Abatume 15
1 Awo ne wajja abantu abamu abaava mu Buyudaaya ne bayigiriza abooluganda nti, “Ssinga temukomolebwa ng’akalombolombo ka Musa bwe kali temuyinza kulokolebwa.”
Then cam certayne from Iewrie and taught the brethren: excepte ye be circumcysed after the maner of Moses ye cannot be saved.
2 Pawulo ne Balunabba ne bawakana nnyo nabo ku nsonga eyo ne kisalibwawo nti Pawulo ne Balunabba n’abamu ku bakkiriza ab’omu Antiyokiya, batwale ensonga eyo eri abatume n’abakadde b’Ekkanisa mu Yerusaalemi.
And when ther was rysen dissencion and disputinge not a litle vnto Paul and Barnabas agaynst them. They determined that Paul and Barnabas and certayne other of them shuld ascende to Ierusalem vnto the Apostles and elders aboute this question.
3 Ababaka ne bakwata ery’e Yerusaalemi, ne bayimirirako mu kibuga ky’e Fayiniikiya n’e Samaliya okukyalira abakkiriza mu bibuga ebyo n’okubategeeza ng’Abamawanga bangi bwe baakyuka ne bakkiriza. Ebigambo ebyo ne bisanyusa nnyo abooluganda.
And after they were brought on their waye by the congregacion they passed over Phenices and Samaria declarynge the conuersion of the getyls and they brought great ioye vnto all ye brethren.
4 Bwe baatuuka mu Yerusaalemi ne baanirizibwa ekkanisa, abatume n’abakadde b’Ekkanisa bonna. Ne babategeeza byonna Katonda bye yabakozesa.
And when they were come to Ierusalem they were receaved of the congregacion and of the Apostles and elders. And they declared what thinges God had done by them.
5 Naye abamu ku bakkiriza, ab’omu kibiina ky’Abafalisaayo, ne basituka ne bagamba nti Abaamawanga bonna abakkiriza bateekwa okukomolebwa nga bwe kiri mu mateeka ga Musa, era n’okugoberera obulombolombo bwonna ng’empisa z’Ekiyudaaya bwe ziragira.
Then arose ther vp certayne that were of the secte of the Pharises and dyd beleve sayinge that it was nedfull to circucise them and to enioyne the to kepe ye lawe of Moses.
6 Awo abatume n’abakadde b’Ekkanisa ne bakuŋŋaana bateese ku nsonga eyo.
And ye Apostles and elders came to geder to reason of this matter.
7 Oluvannyuma nga bateeserezza ebbanga ggwanvu, Peetero n’asituka n’abagamba nti, “Abooluganda, mwenna mumanyi nga Katonda yannonda dda mu mmwe mu nnaku ezaasooka, mbuulire Enjiri mu baamawanga nabo bakkirize.
And when ther was moche disputinge Peter rose vp and sayde vnto them: Ye men and brethren ye knowe how that a good whyle agoo God chose amoge vs that the getyls by my mouth shuld heare the worde of the gospell and beleve.
8 Era Katonda amanyi emitima gy’abantu, yayaniriza Abaamawanga ng’abawa Mwoyo Mutukuvu nga naffe bwe yatumuwa.
And God which knoweth the herte bare them witnes and gave vnto them the holy goost eve as he dyd vnto vs
9 Teyabasosola kubanga bwe baamala okukkiriza, obulamu bwabwe n’abunaaza ng’obwaffe bwe yabunaaza.
and he put no difference bitwene them and vs but with fayth purified their hertes.
10 Kale kaakano, lwaki mwagala okukema Katonda nga mukakaatika ekikoligo mu bulago bw’abayigirizwa, kye mumanyi nga bajjajjaffe kyabakaluubirira era naffe kitukaluubirira okwetikka?
Now therfore why tempte ye God that ye wolde put a yoke on the disciples neckes which nether oure fathers nor we were able to beare.
11 Tukkiriza nti tulokolebwa lwa kisa kya Mukama waffe Yesu, era n’abamawanga bwe batyo bwe balokolebwa.”
But we beleve that thorowe the grace of the Lorde Iesu Christ we shalbe saved as they doo.
12 Ekibiina kyonna ne kisiriikirira ne bawuliriza Balunabba ne Pawulo nga babategeeza eby’amagero n’obubonero Katonda bye yabakozesa nga bali ku mulimu gwe mu baamawanga.
Then all the multitude was peased and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul which tolde what signes and wondres God had shewed amonge the gentyls by them.
13 Bwe baamala okwogera, Yakobo n’agamba nti, “Abasajja abooluganda, mumpulirize.
And when they helde their peace Iames answered sayinge: Men and brethren herken vnto me.
14 Simooni abategeezezza ng’okusookera ddala Katonda bwe yakyalira Abaamawanga ne yeeronderamu abo ab’okuweesa erinnya lye ekitiibwa.
Simeon tolde how God at the begynnynge dyd visit the gentyls and receaved of them people vnto his name.
15 Era kino kituukiriza bannabbi bye baayogera ng’Ekyawandiikibwa bwe kigamba nti,
And to this agreith ye wordes of ye Prophetes as it is written.
16 “‘Oluvannyuma lwa bino ndikomawo, ne nziddaabiriza ennyumba ya Dawudi eyagwa. Ndiddaabiriza ebifo ebyamenyebwamenyebwa. Ndigizaawo,
After this I will returne and wyll bylde agayne the tabernacle of David which is fallen doune and that which is fallen in dekey of it will I bilde agayne and I will set it vp
17 n’abantu abalala basobole okunoonya Mukama, era n’abamawanga be nayita okuba abantu bange.
that the residue of men might seke after the Lorde and also the gentyls vpo whom my name is named saith ye Lorde which doth all these thinges:
knowne vnto God are all his workes from the begynninge of the worlde. (aiōn g165)
19 “Kyenva nsalawo nti, Tetusaana kutikka baamawanga abakkiriza Katonda mugugu munene nga tubawaliriza okukwata obulombolombo bwaffe obw’Ekiyudaaya.
Wherfore my sentece is yt we trouble not them which fro amonge the gentyls are turned to God:
20 Wabula tubawandiikire tubategeeze beewale okulya ennyama eya ssaddaaka eweebwayo eri bakatonda abalala, beewale obwenzi n’okulya ennyama ey’ebisolo ebitugiddwa, era beewale okulya n’omusaayi.
but yt we write vnto them yt they abstayne them selves fro filthynes of ymages fro fornicacio from straglyd and fro bloude.
21 Kubanga ebintu byonna biri mu mateeka ga Musa, era bibuulirwa mu makuŋŋaaniro g’Abayudaaya mu buli kibuga buli lunaku lwa Ssabbiiti ebbanga lyonna.”
For Moses of olde tyme hath in every cite that preache him and he is rede in the synagoges every saboth daye.
22 Awo abatume n’abakadde b’Ekkanisa n’abooluganda bonna mu Kkanisa ne bateesa okutuma ababaka bagende ne Pawulo ne Balunabba mu Antiyokiya okubategeeza kye basazeewo. Abasajja abaalondebwa nga bakulembeze mu Kkanisa baali: Yuda (era gwe bayita Balusaba) ne Siira.
Then pleased it the Apostles and elders wt the whole congregacio to sende chosyn men of their owne copany to Antioche with Paul and Barnabas. They sent Iudas called also Barsabas and Silas which were chefe men amonge the brethre
23 Ne baweebwa ebbaluwa gye baatwala ng’esoma bw’eti: Ffe abatume, n’abakadde b’ekkanisa, Eri abooluganda, mu Antiyokiya yonna ne Siriya ne Kirukiya: Abooluganda tubalamusizza.
and gave them lettres in their hondes after this maner. The Apostles elders and brethren send gretynges vnto the brethre which are of the gentyls in Antioche Siria and Celicia.
24 Tuwulidde nti abamu ku booluganda baava wano ne bajja eyo nga si ffe tubatumye, ne boogera nammwe ebigambo ebyabatabulatabula mu kukkiriza kwammwe ne bibakeŋŋentereza emitima.
For as moche as we have hearde yt certayne which departed fro vs have troubled you with wordes and combred youre myndes sayinge: Ye must be circumcised and kepe the lawe to whom we gave no soche comaundemet.
25 Kyetuvudde tuteesa ffenna, era ne tukkiriziganya bumu, okubatumira ababaka baffe bajjire wamu n’abaagalwa baffe, Balunabba ne Pawulo,
It semed therfore to vs a good thinge when we were come to gedder with one accorde to sende chosyn men vnto you with oure beloved Barnabas and Paul
26 abasajja abeewaddeyo okuweereza Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo nga tebabalirira bulamu bwabwe.
men that have ieoperded their lyves for the name of oure Lorde Iesus Christ.
27 Tubatumidde Yuda ne Siira bongere okubannyonnyola n’akamwa ebyo ebiri mu bbaluwa eno.
We have sent therfore Iudas and Sylas which shall also tell you the same thinges by mouth.
28 Kubanga kwe kuteesa kwa Mwoyo Mutukuvu, era naffe, nga tekisaanira kubatikka migugu gya bwereere egiteetaagibwa, wabula musaana okugoberera bino:
For it semed good to the holy gost and to vs to put no grevous thinge to you more then these necessary thinges:
29 Mwewalenga ennyama ettiddwa olw’okuweebwayo eri bakatonda abalala, mwewalenga n’okulya omusaayi, era n’ennyama ey’ebisolo ebitugiddwa, era mwewalenga obwenzi. Bwe muneegendereza ne mwewala ebintu ebyo, munaaba mukoze bulungi. Mweraba.
that is to saye that ye abstayne from thinges offered to ymages from bloud from strangled and fornicacion. From which yf ye kepe youre selves ye shall do well. So fare ye well.
30 Awo abaatumibwa ne basitula ne bagenda mu Antiyokiya, ne bakuŋŋaanya ekibiina ky’abakkiriza ne babakwasa ebbaluwa eyo.
When they were departed they came to Antioche and gaddred the multitude togeder and delyvered ye pistle.
31 Bwe baagisoma, essanyu ne liba jjitirivu mu Kkanisa yonna olw’ebyo ebyagirimu.
When they had redde it they reioysed of that consolacion.
32 Awo Yuda ne Siira, olwokubanga baali bannabbi, ne boogerera ebbanga ggwanvu nga bakubiriza abooluganda okunyweza okukkiriza kwabwe.
And Iudas and Sylas beinge prophetes exhorted the brethren with moche preachynge and strengthed them.
33 Awo Yuda ne Siira ne bamalayo ennaku ntonotono ne basiibula okuddayo eri abaabatuma. Abooluganda ne babatuma okulamusa abali mu Yerusaalemi n’okubeebaza olw’obubaka bwe baabaweereza.
And after they had taryed there a space they were let goo in peace of the brethren vnto the Apostles.
34 Naye Siira n’asalawo okusigalayo.
Not with stondynge it pleasyd Sylas to abyde there still.
35 Pawulo ne Balunabba ne babeera mu Antiyokiya okumala ebbanga nga bakolera wamu n’abalala nga babuuliira Enjiri era n’okuyigiriza.
Paul and Barnabas continued in Antioche teachynge and preachynge the worde of the Lorde with other many.
36 Awo nga wayiseewo ennaku Pawulo n’agamba Balunabba baddeyo mu bibuga gye baabuulira Enjiri, bagende nga bakyalira abooluganda, balabe nga bwe bali.
But after a certayne space Paul sayde vnto Barnabas: Let vs goo agayne and visite oure brethren in every cite where we have shewed the worde of the Lorde and se how they do.
37 Balunabba n’akkiriza, wabula n’ayagala ne Yokaana Makko agende nabo.
And Barnabas gave counsell to take wt them Iohn called also Marke.
38 Naye Pawulo ekyo n’atakyagala, kubanga Makko yabaawukanako n’abaleka e Panfuliya ng’omulimu ogwabatwala tebannagumaliriza.
But Paul thought it not mete to take him vnto their company whiche departed from them at Pamphylia and went not with them to the worke.
39 Ne balemwa okukkiriziganya mu nsonga eyo, n’ekyavaamu kwe kwawukana. Balunabba n’atwala Makko ne basaabala ku nnyanja okulaga mu Kupulo.
And the dissencion was so sharpe bitwene them that they departed a sunder one from the other: so that Barnabas toke Marke and sayled vnto Cypers.
40 Pawulo n’alonda Siira, abooluganda ne bamusabira ekisa kya Mukama mu lugendo lwe.
And Paul chose Sylas and departed delyvered of ye brethren vnto the grace of god.
41 Ne bayita mu Siriya ne mu Kirukiya nga bagenda bagumya ekkanisa.
And he went thorowe all Cyria and Cilicia stablisshynge the congregacions.
