Ebikolwa by’Abatume 21
1 Awo bwe twamala okusiibulagana ne tuseeyeeya butereevu okutuuka e Koosi. Olunaku olwaddirira ne tutuuka e Rodise, we twava okulaga e Patala.
And it chaunsed that assone as we had launched forth and were departed from them we came with a strayght course vnto Choon and the daye folowinge vnto the Rhodes and from thence vnto Patara.
2 Okuva awo twagendera mu kyombo ekyali kigenda mu Foyiniikiya.
And we founde a shippe redy to sayle vnto Phenices and went a borde and set forthe.
3 Ne tulengera ekizinga Kupulo, ne tukiyitako nga tukirese ku mukono gwaffe ogwa kkono, ne tuseeyeeya ne tugoba ku mwalo gw’e Ttuulo mu Siriya, kubanga ekyombo we kyali kigenda okutikkulirwa ebintu.
Then appered vnto vs Cyprus and we lefte it on the lefte honde and sayled vnto Syria and came vnto Tyre. For there the shyppe vnladed her burthen.
4 Bwe twava mu kyombo ne tunoonya abayigirizwa ne tubeera nabo ennaku musanvu. Mwoyo Mutukuvu n’ayogerera mu bayigirizwa abo ne balabula Pawulo aleme kugenda Yerusaalemi.
And when we had founde brethren we taryed there. vii. dayes. And they tolde Paul thorowe ye sprete that he shuld not goo vp to Ierusalem.
5 Ennaku ezo bwe zaggwaako ne tusitula. Abayigirizwa ne bakyala baabwe n’abaana baabwe ne batuwerekerako okutuggya mu kibuga okututuusiza ddala ku mwalo. Awo ffenna ne tufukamira ne tusaba.
And when the dayes were ended we departed and went oure wayes and they all brought vs on oure waye wt their wyves and chyldren tyll we were come out of the cyte. And we kneled doune in the shore and prayde.
6 Bwe twamala okusaba ne tusiibulagana. Ffe ne tuyingira ekyombo kyaffe, ne bannaffe ne baddayo ewaabwe.
And when we had taken oure leave one of another we toke shyppe and they returned home agayne.
7 Bwe twava e Ttuulo ne tugoba e Potolemaayi, ne tulamusaganya n’abakkiriza, ne tumala nabo olunaku lumu.
When we had full ended the course fro Tyre we aryved at Ptolomaida and saluted the brethren and abode with the one daye.
8 Enkeera ne tweyongerayo okutuuka e Kayisaliya, ne tubeera mu maka ga Firipo Omubuulizi w’Enjiri, eyali omu ku badiikoni omusanvu abaasooka.
The nexte daye we that were of Pauls copany departed and came vnto Cesarea. And we entred into the housse of Philip ye Evagelist which was one of the seve deacones and abode with him.
9 Yalina abaana be abawala abaali batannafumbirwa bana nga balina ekirabo eky’obunnabbi.
The same man had fower doughters virges which dyd prophesy.
10 Ne tumalawo ennaku eziwerako, ne wajja nnabbi erinnya lye Agabo ng’ava Buyudaaya.
And as we taried there a good many dayes there came a certayne prophete from Iurie named Agabus.
11 Bwe yajja okutulaba, n’addira olukoba lwa Pawulo ne yeesiba amagulu n’emikono, n’agamba nti, “Mwoyo Mutukuvu ayogera nti, ‘Bw’ati nannyini lukoba luno bw’alisibwa Abayudaaya mu Yerusaalemi ne bamuwaayo mu mikono gy’Abamawanga.’”
When he was come vnto vs he toke Pauls gerdell and bounde his hondes and fete and sayde: thus saith the holy goost: so shall ye Iewes at Ierusalem bynde the man yt oweth this gerdell and shall delyver him into the hondes of the gentyls.
12 Bwe twawulira ebigambo ebyo ffenna awamu n’abatuuze b’omu kitundu ekyo ne twegayirira Pawulo aleme kugenda Yerusaalemi.
When we hearde this both we and other of the same place besought him that he wolde not goo vp to Ierusalem.
13 Naye Pawulo n’addamu nti, “Lwaki mukaaba n’okwagala okunnafuya omutima? Kubanga seeteeseteese kusibibwa kyokka, naye neetegese n’okufiira mu Yerusaalemi olw’erinnya lya Mukama waffe Yesu.”
Then Paul answered and sayde: what do ye wepynge and breakinge myne hert? I am redy not to be bound only but also to dye at Ierusalem for ye name of ye Lorde Iesu.
14 Bwe twalaba nga tekisoboka kumukkirizisa butagenda, ne tubivaako, ne tugamba nti, “Mukama ky’ayagala kye kiba kikolebwa.”
When we coulde not turne his mynde we ceased sayinge: the will of ye Lorde be fulfilled.
15 Bwe waayitawo ennaku ntono ne tusiba ebintu byaffe, ne tusitula okulaga mu Yerusaalemi.
After those dayes we made oure selfes redy and went vp to Ierusalem.
16 Abamu ku bayigirizwa ab’e Kayisaliya ne batuwerekerako, bwe twatuuka ne tubeera mu maka ga Munasoni, edda eyabeeranga e Kupulo era nga yali omu ku bantu abaasooka okukkiriza.
There went with vs also certayne of his disciples of Cesarea and brought with them one Mnason of Cyprus an olde disciple with whom we shuld lodge.
17 Bwe twatuuka mu Yerusaalemi abooluganda ne batwaniriza n’essanyu lingi nnyo.
And when we were come to Ierusalem the brethren receaved vs gladly.
18 Awo enkeera ffenna ne tugenda ne Pawulo ng’agenda okulaba Yakobo, n’abakadde b’Ekkanisa y’omu Yerusaalemi bonna baaliwo.
And on the morowe Paul wet in with vs vnto Iames. And all the elders came to geder.
19 Okulamusaganya bwe kwaggwa, Pawulo n’abategeeza kinnakimu byonna Katonda bye yamukozesa ng’aweereza mu baamawanga.
And when he had saluted them he tolde by order all thinges that God had wrought amoge the getyls by his ministracion.
20 Bwe baabiwulira byonna ne batendereza Katonda, naye ne bagamba Pawulo nti, “Owooluganda, omanyi ng’Abayudaaya nkumi na nkumi bakkiriza, era nga bonna bakakatira ku kimu nti Abayudaaya bonna wadde abakkiriza basaana okugoberera amateeka, n’empisa, n’obulombolombo, eby’Ekiyudaaya.
And when they hearde it they glorified the Lorde and sayde vnto him: thou seist brother how many thousande Iewes ther are which beleve and they are all zelous over ye lawe.
21 Baategeezebwa nti oyigiriza Abayudaaya bonna abali mu Bamawanga okuleka amateeka ga Musa baleme okukomola abaana baabwe wadde okugoberera empisa z’Ekiyudaaya.
And they are informed of the that thou teachest all the Iewes which are amoge the gentyls to forsake Moses and sayst that they ought not to circumcise their chyldren nether to live after the customes.
22 Kale kaakano kiki ekinaakolebwa? Kubanga awatali kubuusabuusa bajja kutegeera nti ozze.
What is it therfore? The multitude must nedes come togeder. For they shall heare that thou arte come.
23 Kale waliwo wano abasajja bana abali ku kirayiro, abateekateeka okumwa emitwe gyabwe nga beerongoosa.
Do therfore this that we saye to the. We have. iiii. men which have a vowe on them.
24 Genda nabo mu Yeekaalu weerongooseze wamu nabo, era obasasulire ensimbi ez’okumwa emitwe gyabwe. Kale buli omu ajja kukiraba era abantu bonna bajja kutegeera nti okiriziganya n’okukuuma amateeka, n’ebyo bye bakwogerako tebiriimu nsa.
Them take and purifye thy selfe with them and do cost on them that they maye shave their heeddes and all shall knowe yt tho thinges which they have hearde concerninge the are nothinge: but that thou thy selfe also walkest and kepest the lawe.
25 Ku nsonga z’Abamawanga abakkiriza, twabawandikira nga tubagamba baleme kugoberera bulombolombo bwa Kiyudaaya n’akatono wabula ebyo bye twassa mu bbaluwa yaffe era bye bino; obutalya nnyama ya bisolo ebiweereddwayo eri bakatonda abalala, n’obutalya ebitugiddwa oba okulya omusaayi, era n’okwewala obwenzi.”
For as touchinge the gentyls which beleve we have written and concluded yt they observe no soche thinges: but that they kepe them selves from thinges offred to ydoles from bloud fro strangled and fro fornicacion.
26 Ku lunaku olwaddirira Pawulo n’atwala abasajja okwerongoosa, naye ne yeerongoosa nabo. N’ayingira mu Yeekaalu okutegeera olunaku ekiseera ky’okwerongoosa eky’ennaku omusanvu we kiriggweerako, olwo buli omu alyoke atwaleyo ekiweebwayo kye.
Then the nexte daye Paul toke the men and purified him selfe with them and entred into the teple declaringe that he observed the dayes of ye purificacio vntyll that an offeringe shuld be offred for every one of them.
27 Awo ekiseera eky’ennaku omusanvu bwe kyali kiri kumpi okuggwaako, ne wabaawo Abayudaaya abaava mu Asiya ne balaba Pawulo mu Yeekaalu, ne basasamaza ekibiina kyonna, ne bakwata Pawulo
And as the seven dayes shuld have bene ended ye Iewes which were of Asia when they sawe him in the teple they moved all the people and layde hondes on him
28 nga bwe baleekaana nti, “Abasajja Abayisirayiri! Mutuyambe! Ono ye musajja agenda ayogera obubi ku ggwanga lyaffe ne ku mateeka gaffe ne ku kifo kino, ng’ayigiriza buli muntu buli wantu. Era ayonoonye Yeekaalu yaffe ng’agireetamu Abayonaani.”
cryinge: men of Israel helpe. This is the man that teacheth all men every where agaynst the people and the lawe and this place. Moreover also he hath brought Grekes into the teple and hath polluted this holy place.
29 Kubanga baamulabako ng’atambula mu kibuga ne Tulofiimo, eyava mu Efeso, ne balowooza nti Pawulo yamutwala ne mu Yeekaalu.
For they sawe one Trophimus an Ephesian with him in the cyte. Him they supposed Paul had brought into the teple.
30 Ekibuga kyonna ne kijagalala olw’okuwulira ebigambo ebyo, era abantu ne bajja nga badduka okuva mu buli nsonda y’ekibuga. Ne bakwata Pawulo ne bamufulumya ebweru wa Yeekaalu, amangwago ne baggalawo enzigi.
And all the cyte was moved and the people swarmed to geder. And they toke Paul and drue him out of the teple and forthwith the dores were shut to.
31 Naye bwe baayagala okumutta, amawulire ne gatuuka ku mukulu w’ekitongole ky’abaserikale Abaruumi nti Yerusaalemi kiguddemu akeegugungo.
As they went about to kyll him tydinges came vnto the hye captayne of the soudiers that all Ierusalem was moved.
32 Amangwago n’asindika abaserikale n’abaduumizi baabwe, ne badduka okugenda eri ekibiina ky’abantu. Awo bwe baalaba omuduumizi n’abaserikale nga bajja, ne balekeraawo okukuba Pawulo.
Which immediatly toke soudiers and vndercaptaynes and ranne doune vnto them. When they sawe ye vpper captayne and the soudiers they lefte smytinge of Paul.
33 Awo omukulu w’abaserikale n’akwata Pawulo n’alagira asibibwe mu njegere bbiri, n’alyoka abuuza nti, “Y’ani, era akoze ki?”
Then the captayne came neare and toke him and comaunded him to be bounde with two chaynes and demaunded what he was and what he had done.
34 Ne bamuddamu nga baleekaana, ng’abamu bamugamba kino n’abalala nga bagamba kiri. N’alemwa okubaako ekiramu ky’aggyamu olw’okuleekaana okungi. Kyeyava alagira batwale Pawulo mu nkambi y’abaserikale.
And one cryed this another that amoge the people. And whe he coulde not knowe the certayntie for ye rage he comaunded him to be caryed into the castle.
35 Bwe yamutuusa ku madaala, ekibiina ky’abantu ne bayitirira obukambwe, abaserikale ne basitula Pawulo.
And whe he came vnto a grece it fortuned that he was borne of the soudiers of the violence of the people.
36 Ekibiina ky’abantu abaali bagoberera ne boogera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka nti, “Mumutte!”
For the multitude of the people folowed after cryinge: awaye wt him.
37 Awo abaserikale bwe baali bagenda okuyingiza Pawulo mu nkambi yaabwe, n’asaba omukulu waabwe nti, “Onzikiriza mbeeko kye nkugamba?” N’amuddamu nti, “Omanyi n’Oluyonaani?
And as Paul shuld have bene caryed into the castle he sayde vnto the hye Captayne: maye I speake vnto the? Which sayde: canst thou speake Greke?
38 Ye si ggwe Mumisiri eyajeemesa abantu mu nnaku ezayita, n’okulembera abatemu enkumi nnya n’obalaza mu ddungu?”
Arte not thou that Egypcian which before these dayes made an vproure and ledde out into the wildernes. iiii. thousande men that were mortherers?
39 Pawulo n’addamu nti, “Nedda, nze ndi Muyudaaya, ewaffe Taluso ekiri mu Kirukiya, ekibuga ekitanyoomebwa, era omutuuze. Nkwegayiridde nzikiriza njogere n’abantu bano.”
But Paul sayde: I am a ma which am a Iewe of Tharsus a cite in Cicill a Citesyn of no vyle cite I beseche ye soffre me to speake vnto ye people.
40 Awo omuduumizi w’abaserikale kwe kumukkiriza, Pawulo n’ayimirira ku madaala n’akoma ku bantu basirike, amangwago ekibiina kyonna ne kisiriikirira, n’alyoka ayogera nabo mu Lwebbulaniya ng’abagamba nti:
When he had geve him licece Paul stode on ye steppes and beckned with the honde vuto the people and ther was made a greate silence. And he spake vnto the in ye Ebrue tonge sayinge:
