Itendi 21
1 Tukaalajilanjeje, gutukwelile meli gutupite mpaka ku Koshi. Malabhi gakwe gutuishe ku Lode na gwajabhula penepo gutupite ku Patala.
And after parting from them, we put out to sea and came straight to Cos, and the day after to Rhodes, and from there to Patara:
2 Kweneko gutujiimene meli jajendaga ku Poinike, gutukwelile, gutujabhwile.
And as there was a ship going to Phoenicia, we went in it.
3 Tukaishileje pa kushibhona shilambo sha Kupulo, gutupitile kunkono nshinda gutuloshiye ku Shilia. Gutujimi kushilambo sha Tilo penepo mishigo ja mmeli mula jatendaga pinjikwa jituluywe.
And when we had come in view of Cyprus, going past it on our left, we went on to Syria, and came to land at Tyre: for there the goods which were in the ship had to be taken out.
4 Gutwaimenenje bhaajiganywa bha a Yeshu kweneko, gututemi nabhonji kwa juma jimo. Bhalibheleketanga kwa mashili gaka Mbumu, gubhaalimbiyenje a Pauli bhanajende ku Yelushalemu.
And meeting the disciples we were there for seven days: and they gave Paul orders through the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.
5 Ikabheje mobha getu gakamalileje gutujabhwile. Na bhandunji bhowe na ashakongo bhabhonji na ashibhana bhabhonji gubhatupelesheyenje mpaka palanga shilambo. Tukaisheje nnyenje bhaali, tubhowe gututindibhele kujuga Nnungu.
And when these days came to an end, we went on our journey; and they all, with their wives and children, came with us on our way till we were out of the town: and after going on our knees in prayer by the sea,
6 Kungai gutulegene nabhonji, uwe gutukwelile meli, nabhalabhonji gubhabhujilenje kunngwabhonji.
We said our last words to one another, and got into the ship, and they went back to their houses.
7 Gutupite na mwanja gwetu gwajabhula ku Tilo gutuishe ku Tolemaishi, kweneko gutwaalamushilenje ashaapwetu, gututemi nabhonji lyubha limo.
And journeying by ship from Tyre we came to Ptolemais; and there we had talk with the brothers and were with them for one day.
8 Malabhi gakwe gutujabhwile gutuishe ku Kaishalia. Kweneko gutupite kunngwabho a Pilipi Bhaalunguya Ngani ja Mmbone. Bhenebho ni munkumbi gwa nng'ano na bhabhili bhaagwilwenje ku Yelushalemu kula.
And on the day after, we went away and came to Caesarea, where we were guests in the house of Philip, the preacher, who was one of the seven.
9 Bhashinkukola bhali nsheshe bhakanabhe lombwanga bhatendaga londolanga.
And he had four daughters, virgins, who were prophets.
10 Tukatameje kweneko mobha gowepe, gwaishe nkulondola jumo kukopoka ku Yudea lina lyakwe Agabhushi.
And while we were waiting there for some days, a certain prophet, named Agabus, came down from Judaea.
11 Akatuishileje gwatolile nshipi gwa a Pauli, gwaitabhile makono na makongono, gwashite, “Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo akuti, ‘Nnyene gwene nshipi guno apinga tabhwa shana nneino na Bhayaudi ku Yelushalemu na bhapinga kunkamuyanga ku bhandunji bha ilambo ina.’”
And he came to us, and took the band of Paul's clothing, and putting it round his feet and hands, said, The Holy Spirit says these words, So will the Jews do to the man who is the owner of this band, and they will give him up into the hands of the Gentiles.
12 Bhai, tukapilikaneje genego uwe na bhandunji bhananji bha pepala gutwaashondelesheye a Pauli bhanajende ku Yelushalemu.
And hearing these things, we and those who were living in that place made request to him not to go to Jerusalem.
13 Ikabheje a Pauli gubhajangwile, “Nkupinga tendanga nndi? Nnagutanga mmulaganje ntima? Nne ng'engwilwe nngabha ga tabhwape ku Yelushalemu, ikabheje nkali kubhulagwa kwa ligongo lya a Yeshu.”
Then Paul said, What are you doing, weeping and wounding my heart? for I am ready, not only to be a prisoner, but to be put to death at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
14 Tukalepeleje kwaashondelesheya, bhai gutushite, “Libhapinga Bhakulungwa litendeshe!”
And as he might not be moved we did no more, saying, Let the purpose of God be done.
15 Gakapiteje gene mobha gala, gututabhile mishigo jetu, gutujabhwile kwenda ku Yelushalemu.
And after these days we got ready and went up to Jerusalem.
16 Bhaajiganywa bhananji kopoka ku Kaishalia gubhalongenenje na uwe, gubhatupelekenje ku nyumba ja a Mnashoni kutwajendaga ishila. A Mnashoni pubhaliji bhashilambo bha ku Kipulo na pubhaliji bhaajiganywa tandubhila bhukala.
And some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, taking a certain Mnason of Cyprus, one of the early disciples, in whose house we were to be living.
17 Tukaisheje ku Yelushalemu, bhakilishitu ajetunji gubhatuposhelenje kwa kwinonyela.
And when we came to Jerusalem, the brothers were pleased to see us.
18 Malabhi gakwe a Pauli gubhapite na uwe na bhakulungwanji bhowe bha liekalu bhapalinji kukwaabhona a Yakobho.
And on the day after, Paul went with us to James, and all the rulers of the church were present.
19 Bhakaalamushilanjeje, a Pauli gubhaatalashiyenje yowe ibhatendile a Nnungu kubhandunji bha ilambo ina nniengo lyabho.
And when he had said how glad he was to see them, he gave them a detailed account of the things which God had done through his work among the Gentiles.
20 Bhakapilikananjeje genego gubhaakushiyenje a Nnungu. Kungai gubhaalugulilenje a Pauli, “Apwetu, nnilola kuti maelupu ga Bhayaudi nnaino bhashibhanganga bhakilishitu na bhowenji bhashitumbililanga kukamulila shalia ja a Musha.
And hearing it, they gave praise to God; and they said to him, You see, brother, what thousands there are among the Jews, who have the faith; and they all have a great respect for the law:
21 Bhabhalanjilwenje ngani jenu kuti nnakwajiganyanga Bhayaudi bhatamanga mwilambo ina kuti bhanakagulanje Malajilo ga a Musha wala bhanaataganje unyago ashibhana bhabhonji na bhanakaguyanje ikubho ya Shiyaudi.
And they have had news of you, how you have been teaching all the Jews among the Gentiles to give up the law of Moses, and not to give circumcision to their children, and not to keep the old rules.
22 Igala, pushiibhe bhuli? Pabha shibhapilikananje kuti nng'ishe.”
What then is the position? They will certainly get news that you have come.
23 “Bhai, ntende malinga gutupinga kummalanjila gano. Bhashipagwanga apano bhanabhalume nsheshe bhashitabhanga nalili.
Do this, then, which we say to you: We have four men who have taken an oath;
24 Mwiilunde na bhene bhanganyabho, nkaikonjeleye nabhonji kwa a Nnungu. Nkaalipilanje, nkupinga bhamogwanje umbo yabhonji. Penepo bhandunji bhowe shibhamumanyanje kuti ngani jenu jibhapilikenenjejo nngabha ja kweli, ikabheje mmwe mmayene nnitama ukoto na nnikaguya Shalia ja a Musha.
Go with these, and make yourself clean with them, and make the necessary payments for them, so that they may be free from their oath: and everyone will see that the statements made about you are not true, but that you put yourself under rule, and keep the law.
25 Ikabheje kwa ngani ja bhandunji bha ilambo ina bhalinginji bhakilishitu, twaajandishilanje bhaluwa kwatalashiyanga shitushite lajila, bhanalyanganje yalya ya mbepei ya ashinnungu bha yanamu na bhanataunanje nnyama yangainga na bhaiepuyanje na labhalabha.”
But as to the Gentiles who have the faith, we sent a letter, giving our decision that they were to keep themselves from offerings made to false gods, and from blood, and from the flesh of animals put to death in ways against the law, and from the evil desires of the body.
26 Bhai, pa malabhi gakwe a Pauli gubhaatolilenje bhandunji bhatabhilenje nalili bhala gubhajujile nabhonji Nnungu nkwiikonjeleya. Kungai nigubhajinjile nliekalu, kuulugula ga mpelo gwa mobha ga kwiikonjeleya kwa a Nnungu na ga mbepei ipinga shoywa kwa kila mundu.
Then Paul took the men, and on the day after, making himself clean with them, he went into the Temple, giving out the statement that the days necessary for making them clean were complete, till the offering was made for every one of them.
27 Bhai, gene mobha nng'ano na gabhili gala gali tome na malila, Bhayaudi bhakopokengene ku Ashia gubhaabhweninji a Pauli nniekalu. Bhai, gubhakwiyenje nnjimwa likundi lyowe lya bhandunji, nigubhaakamwilenje.
And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the Temple, got the people together and put their hands on him,
28 Gubhajobhelenje, bhalinkutinji, “Mmashileunji bha pa Ishilaeli, ntujangutanje! Jweneju ni mundu ajiganya bhandunji mmbali yowe indu ikapinjikwa na bhandunji bha shilambo sha Ishilaeli, ya kana Shalia ja a Musha na pa ukonjelo pano. Na kabhili anakwaajinjiyanga Bhagiliki nniekalu nikupanyatiya pa ukonjelo pano.”
Crying out, Men of Israel, come to our help: this is the man who is teaching all men everywhere against the people and the law and this place: and in addition, he has taken Greeks into the Temple, and made this holy place unclean.
29 Bhashinkubheleketanga nneyo, ligongo lya kummona Tolopimo mundu jwa ku Epesho alongene na a Pauli kunnjini, gubhaganishiyenje kuti a Pauli bhashikunnjinjiya nniekalu.
For they had seen him before in the town with Trophimus of Ephesus, and had the idea that Paul had taken him with him into the Temple.
30 Shilambo showe gushijinjile nnjasha, gubhaikengenenje bhandunji kukopoka mmbali yowe, gubhaakamwilenje a Pauli, gubhaakwekwetenje kwakopoya nniekalu, shangupe milango ja liekalu jikuugalwaga.
And all the town was moved, and the people came running together and put their hands on Paul, pulling him out of the Temple: and then the doors were shut.
31 Bhalinginji nkuloleya mwa kwabhulajila, bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo bha Loma, gubhapatile ntenga kuti ku Yelushalemu kowe kushinyata.
And while they were attempting to put him to death, news came to the chief captain of the band that all Jerusalem was out of control.
32 Shangupe gubhaatolilenje ashimanjola na bhakulungwanji bha manjola, gubhapite lubhilo kulugwinjili lwa bhandunji kula. Na bhalabhonji bhakaabhonanjeje bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo na ashimanjola bhala, gubhapumwilenje kwaakoma a Pauli.
And straight away he took some armed men and went quickly down to them: and the Jews, seeing them, gave no more blows to Paul.
33 Bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo bhala gubhapite kwaakamula a Pauli, gubhaamulishe bhatabhwe mindondolo jibhili. Gubhabhushiye, “Jweneju gani na atendile nndi?”
Then the chief captain came near and took him, and gave orders for him to be put in chains, questioning them as to who he was and what he had done.
34 Nnugwinjili mula bhandunji bhatendaga jobhelanga bhananji bhalinkutinji nnei na bhananji sha munape. Kwa ligongo lya yene njobhelayo, bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo bhala bhangagamanya malombolelo ga jene ngani jila. Kwa nneyo gubhaamulishenje bhandu bhabho bhaapelekanje a Pauli nnugwani.
And some said one thing and some another, among the people: and as he was not able to get a knowledge of the facts because of the noise, he gave orders for Paul to be taken into the army building.
35 A Pauli bhakaishejepe pa ngashi, penepo guipinjikwe ashimanjola bhaajigalanje a Pauli kwa ligongo lya nnjasha ya bhandunji.
And when he came on to the steps, he was lifted up by the armed men, because of the force of the people;
36 Pabha lugwinjili lwa bhandu lwatendaga kwaakagula bhalijobhelenga, bhalinkutinji, “Mwaabhulaje!”
For a great mass of people came after them, crying out, Away with him!
37 Na bhalabho a Pauli bhalijinjiywa nnugwani, gubhaajujile bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo bhala bhalinkuti, “Ngunajuga nimmalanjile shindu.” Bhakulungwa bhala gubhashite, “Bhuli ulikombola Shigiliki?
And when Paul was about to be taken into the building, he said to the chief captain, May I say something to you? And he said, Have you a knowledge of Greek?
38 Ugwe nngabha Mmishili agano mobha pegano apitinishe bhandu elupu nsheshe bhaashemwanga mabhulaga bhandu, alikwaalongoyanga kuanga?”
Are you by chance the Egyptian who, before this, got the people worked up against the government and took four thousand men of the Assassins out into the waste land?
39 A Pauli gubhajangwile, “Nne Nannyaudi, kumelekwe ku Tasho nshilambo sha Kilikia, nne mundu jwa shilambo nngabha sha nyegala. Shonde nneshe melekete na bhashilambobha.”
But Paul said, I am a Jew of Tarsus in Cilicia, which is not an unimportant town: I make a request to you to let me say a word to the people.
40 Bhakulungwa bhala gubhakundile. Kwa nneyo a Pauli gubhajimi pangashi, gubhaajinulilenje nkono bhandunji bhapumulanje, bhakapumulanjeje, a Pauli gubhatandwibhe kubheleketa nabhonji kwa Shiebhulania.
And when he let him do so, Paul, from the steps, made a sign with his hand to the people, and when they were all quiet, he said to them in the Hebrew language,
