1 Bhai, bhakulungwa bha bhaabhishila gubhaabhushiye a Shitepano, “Genega ga kweli?”
Kuhani mbaha akajobha. “Mambo agha gha bhukweli”?
2 Na bhalabho a Shitepano gubhajangwile, “Ashaapwanga na ashaatati, ngunajuga mmbilikanishiyanje! Bhakulungwa a Nnungu bhashinkwaakoposhela atati a Bhulaimu pubhaaliji ku Meshopotamia bhakanabhe kwenda tama ku Alani.
Stefano akajobha, “Bhalongo bhangu ni badadi jhangu munip'elekesiajhi nene: K'yara ghwa bhutukufu an'tokili dadi jhitu Abrahamu bhwakati ajhele Mesopotamia kabla hja, kutama Harani;
3 A Nnungu gubhaabhanjile a Bhulaimu, ‘Nnjabhule pa shilambo shenu, mwaalekanje ashaalongo ajenunji, nnjende mmbali jishininnanguye.’
akan'jobhela, bhokayi katika nchi jha jhobhi ni bhanu bha jhobhi na ulotayi, mu nchi jha nibetakulasya'.
4 Kwa nneyo, a Bhulaimu gubhaamile shilambo sha Kalidayo, gubhapite tama ku Alani. Ainabhabho bhakamaleje a Nnungu gubhaashoshiye kabhili gubhaishe tama mmbali jinkutamangana jino.”
Kisha akabhoka mu nchi jha ukaldayo akatama Harani, kuhomela apu, Baada jha dadi munu kufwa, K'yara akandeta mu nchi ejhe, jhabhitama henu.
5 “A Nnungu wala bhangaapa a Bhulaimu nkali shilambo shimo kubha ulishi gwabho, ikabheje bhashinkwaalajila kuti, shibhaape shene shilambo shino shibhe shabho na ashibhana bhabho, ikabhe gene mobhago a Bhulaimu bhakakweteje mwana.
Ampelilepi kyokyoha kama urithi bwa muene, pajhelepi hata ni sehemu jha kubheka ligolo. Lakini Abrahamu ahaidibhu hata kabla jha kukabhe muana kujhanibetakupelibhwa nchi kama miliki jha muene ni uzao bhwa muene
6 A Nnungu gubhaabhalanjile nnei, ‘Ashibhana bhenu shibhapelekwanje kushilambo shangali shabhonji bhakabhanganje bhatumwa na bhonelwa kwa yaka mia pa sheshe.
K'yara ajobhi naku naha, jha kujha bhazao bha muene nghabhatamili mu nchi jha kubhuhesya ni bhenyeji bha okhubhibeta kubhabhomba bhatumwa bha bhene ni kubhabhomba fibaya kwa muda ghwa miaka mianne.
7 Ikabheje nne shinishiukumule shene shilambo shishaatolanje ubhandasho. Kungai shinaashoyanje shene shilambosho bhajiyangane apano kubhandindibhalilanje.’
Ni K'yara akajobha nibetakulihukumu taifa ambalyo libeta kubhabhomba mateka, ni baada jha apu bhibhita kuhoma ni kuniabudu pa sehemu ejhe.
8 Kungai gubhaapele malagano ga jaluka kubha shilangulo shabho. Kwa nneyo a Bhulaimu gubhantajile unyago mwanagwabho Ishaka lyubha lya nane lya bhelekwa kwakwe. Na a Ishaka nneila peila gubhantajile mwanagwabho Yakobho. Na a Yakobho nabhalabho gubhaatendilenje nneyo peyo ashinakulubhetu likumi limo na bhabhili bhala.”
Na ampelili Abrahamu Agano lya tohara. Ivyo Abrahamu akajha ghwa ISaka akan'tahiri ligono lya nane; Isaka akajha dadi ghwa Yakobo ni Yakobo akajha dadi ghwa bhakhoko bhitu kumi ni bhabhele.
9 “Bhanyikala bhetu gubhammonelenje lupimililo mpwabhonji Yoshepu, kwa nneyo gubhang'ushiyenje kuubhanda ku Mishili. Ikabheje a Nnungu pubhaliji pamo naka Yoshepu,
Bhakoko bhitu bhakambonela bhwifu Yusufu bhakan'hemesya katika nchi jh a Misri, ni K'yara ajhele pamonga ni muene,
10 a Nnungu gubhantapwile mmboteko yakwe yowe, gubhampele kubha mundu jwa mituka na lunda kwa a Palao bhakulungwa bha ku Mishili, mpaka a Palao gubhammishile kubha nkulungwa jwa Mishili na nyumba jabho.”
ni kumwokola katika malombosi gha muene, ni kumpela fadhili ni hekima mbele jha Farao mfalme ghwa Misri. Farao akambeka kujha mtawala juu jha Misri ni juu jha nyumba jha muene jhioha.
11 “Kungai gushikoposhele shibhanga shilambo showe sha Mishili na ku Kanani nibha shilaje shikulungwa. Ashinakulubhetu bhakakwetenjeje shalya.
Basi kwajhele ni njala mbaha ni malombosi mingi mu nchi jha Misri ni kanani, ni bhadidi jhitu bhakabhilepi kyakulya.
12 Bhai, a Yakobho bhakapilikaneje kuti ku Mishili shishipagwa shalya, gubhaatumilenje ashinakulubhetu ku Mishili
Lakini Yakobo bho apeliki kujha ni nafakaMisri, abhalaghisi bha dadi jhitu kwa mara jha kwanza.
13 Mwanja gwa bhili, a Yoshepu bhakwitagulilaga kwa ashaakulu bhabho na a Palao gubhaamanyinji ashaakulu bhabho a Yoshepu.
Katika safari jha pili Yusufu akakilasya kwa bhalongo munu, familia jha Yusufu jhikamanyikana kwa Farao.
14 A Yoshepu gubhatumile ntenga kwa ainabhabho a Yakobho na ashalongo ajabho bhowe, bhajiyangane ku Mishili, pubhalinginji bhandu makumi shabha na nng'ano.
Yusufu abhalaghisi bhalongomunu kulota kun'jobhela Yakobo dadi jabhi ahidayi Misri, pamonga ni ndongo munu, jumla jha bhanu bhoha sabini na tano.
15 Kwa nneyo, a Yakobho gubhapite ku Mishili na ashinakulubhetu bhananji gubhawililenje kweneko.
Hivyo Yakobo aselili Misri; kisha afuili pamonga ni bhadadi jhitu.
16 Bhai, iilu yabhonji ikujigalwaga mpaka ku Shekemu, gwiishishilwe nnikabhuli libhaumile a Bhulaimu kubhandunji bha likabhila lya Bhaamoli.
Bhakatolibhwa hata Shekemu bhakasyelibhwa mulikaburi ambalyo Abrahamu alihemili kwa fipandi fya hela kuhoma kwa bhana bha Hamori okhu Shekemu.
17 “Jikaishileje miongwe ja malila malagano ga a Nnungu gubhalegene na a Bhulaimu, bhandunji bhetu ku Mishili kula gubhapundilenje kujenjesheka nibha likundi likulungwa.
Bhwakati bhwa jhela ahidi ambayo K'yara aahidi Abrahamu bho bhukaribili, bhanu bho bhajhongesiki oku Misri,
18 Kungai, bhakulungwa bhamo bhakaamanyiji a Yoshepu gubhatemi muupalume ku Mishili.
Bhwakati obhu ajhinuiki mfalme jhongi Misri, mfalme jhaa manyilepi kuhusu Yusufu.
19 Bhene bhakulungwabho bhashinkwaatendelanga yangali ya mmbone na kwaapotekanga ashinakulubhetu, bhalikwaamulishanga bhaalekanje palanga ashinambombe nkupinga bhawanganje.
Mfalme jhongi ojho akabhakofya bhanu bhitu ni kubhabhomba mabhibhi bha dadi jhitu, ni kubhatagha bhana bhabhi bhadebe ili bhasiishi.
20 A Musha pubhabhelekwe gene mobhago, Musha pabhelekwe ashinkukonja. Kwa myei jitatu gwalelilwe nnyumba ja ainagwe.
Katika kipindi khela Musa ahogoliki ajhele nnofu mbele jha K'yara alalibhu miesi midatu mu nyumba jha dadi munu.
21 Bhakalepelanjeje kung'iya nnyumba gubhammishilenje palanga, abhiti Palao gubhannokwete, gubhannelile mbuti mwanagwabho.
Bhwakati ataghibhu, binti ghwa Farao antolili akandela kama mwana munu.
22 A Musha gubhajigenywe indu yowe ya lunda lwa Bhamishili, nibha bhandu bha manyika nkubheleketa na mwitendi.
Musa amanyisibhu mafundisu ghoha gha kimisri; ajhele ni nghofu mu malobhi ni matendo.
23 “Bhakaishileje yaka makumi nsheshe gubhatumbilile kwenda kwaalolanga ashaalongo ajabhonji bha Ishilaeli shibhakuti tendelwanga.
Lakini baada jha kutimisya miaka arobaini, jhikanhidila mu muoyo bhwa muene kubhagendela bhalongo munu, bhana bha Israeli.
24 Kweneko gubhammweni Mwishilaeli jumo alibhonelwa naka Mmishili, gubhapite kunnjangutila Mwishilaeli jula nkumpindikulila yatendelwe ila, gubhammuleje Mmishili jula.
Bhoambwene mwisraeli ibhombibhwa mabhibhi, Musa an'telili ni kulepesya kisasi kwa jhaamboneleghe kwa kun'tobha Mmsri.
25 Bhaliganishiya kuti Bhaishilaeli ajabhonji shibhamumanyanje kuti a Nnungu bhanakwaatuma kubhaagombolanje, ikabheje bhangamumanyanga.
Afikineghe kujha bhalongo munu bhibeta kumanya kujha K'yara akabhaokola kwa mabhoko gha muene lakini bhamanyilepi.
26 Malabhi gakwe, gubhaabhweninji Bhaishilaeli bhabhili bhalikomananga, gubhalinjile kwaatapulanyanga bhalinkuti, ‘Mmanganya mmaulongo, kwa ndi nnabhonelana?’
Ligono lya lafwatili akalota kwa baadhi jha bhaisraeli bhahakomaneghe; akajaribu kubhapatenisya; akajobha Mabwana, muenga ndongo, mbona mwikoselana jhmu kwa jhomu?
27 Ammonelaga mwine jula gwabhanokolele a Musha kunyenje alinkuti, ‘Gani ammishile mmwe kubha bhaukumula bhetu?
Lakini jhaankosili jirani ghwa muene akansukumila patali ni kujobha, 'Niani akubhombili kujha mtawala ni mhukumu ghwa tete?
28 Bhuli, nkupinga mulaga malinga shimummuleje liyo Mmishili jula?’
Bhebhe wilonda kunikoma kama kyaghwan'komili Mmisri golo”?
29 “A Musha bhakapilikaneje gene malobhego gubhabhutwishe, gubhapite tama ujeni kushilambo sha Midiani, kweneko gubhakwete bhana bhabhili bhanabhalume.
Musa ajumbili baada jha kupeleka nahu; akajha n'hesya mu nchi jha Midiani ambapo akajha dadi ghwa bhana bhabhele.
30 “Ikapiteje yaka makumi nsheshe, malaika jwa Bhakulungwa gwabhakoposhele a Musha pashitekete shakolelaga moto kuanga tome na Shitumbi sha Shinai.
Baada jha miaka arobaini kup'eta, malaika akan'tokela mu jangwa lya kidonda sinai, katika mb'ele ghwa muoto mukichaka.
31 A Musha gubhakanganigwe kwa kaje bhakagabhoneje genego, bhakaegejeleje nkupinga bhalolesheye, gubhapilikene lilobhe lya Bhakulungwa.
Bwakati Musa abubhwene muoto, ashangele ni kustajabila khela kya akibhwene, na bhoajeribu kukihegelela ili kukilanga sauti jha Bwana ikan'hidila ni kujobha,
32 ‘Nne a Nnungu bha ashinakulubhenu, a Nnungu bha a Bhulaimu na a Ishaka na a Yakobho!’ A Musha gubhajogwepe niungumila na wala bhangalinga kulolesheya kabhili.
“Nene ne K'yara ghwa bha dadi waku, K'yara ghwa Abrahamu, ni ghwa Isaka, ni ghwa Yakobo; Musa atetenuki na athubulepi kulanga.
33 Bhakulungwa gubhaabhalanjile. ‘Nng'ule ilatu yenu pabha punnjimi pano pa ukonjelo.
Bwana akan'jobhela, “Fulayi filatu fya jhibhi, sehemu pa ujhemili ndo mahali patakatifu.
34 Gubhaalugulile, nikubhweni kubhonelwa kwa bhandu bhangu ku Mishili kula. Mbilikene shililo shabhonji, njituluka kukwaatapulanga. Bhai lelo, ngunakuntuma nnjende ku Mishili.’
Nighabhuene mateso gha bhanu bhangu bhabhajhele Misri; Nip'eleliki kuluala kwa bhene, nani niselili ili nibhaokolayi; Henu hidayi, nibeta kulaghisya bhebhe Misri.'
35 “A Musha pebho bhakanilwe na Bhaishilaeli bhalinkutinji, ‘Gani ammishile mmwe kubha mmakulungwa bhetu bha kutuukumula?’ Ni bhobho abhakoposhele malaika jwa kunnungu pashitekete shakolelaga moto, a Nnungu gubhaatumile a Musha kubha akalongolele na bhaukumula.
Ojhi Musa jha bhambelili, wakati bhijobha, Niani akubhekili kujha mtawala ni mwamuzi ghwa tete? Ajhele ndo K'yara andaghisi kujha mtawala ni n'kombozi K'yara andaghisi kwa kibhoko kya malaika ambajhe an'tokili Musa mu kichaka.
36 “Bhenebho ni bhaashoshiyenje bhandunji ku Mishili kula kwa ilapo nshilambo sha Mishili na pa bhaali ja Shamu na nng'anga, kwa yaka makumi nsheshe.
Musa abhalonguisi kuhomela Misri baada jha kubhomba miujiza ni ishara kuimisri ni kubahari jha Shamu, ni kulijangwa kwa kipindi kya miaka arobaini.
37 A Musha ni bhaalugulilenje Bhaishilaeli. ‘Bhakulungwa a Nnungu bhenunji, shibhanng'agulilanje nkulondola jwabho jwa malinga nne kukopoka munkumbi gwa ashaalongo ajenunji, mumpilikanishiyanje jwenejo.’
Ndo Musa ojho jhaabhajobhili bhanu bha Israeli kujha, K'yara ibetakubhajhinubila nabii kuhomele miongonni mwa bhalongo bhinu, nabii kama nene.
38 A Musha pubhaaliji na bhandu bha a Nnungu kuanga naka malaika jwa kunnungu abhelekete nabho kushitumbi sha Shinai jula na ashainabhetu. Bhalabho ni bhapegwilwe malobhe ga taga gumi bhatulungushiye uwe.
Ojho ndo munu ambajhe ajhele ku n'kutano ku lijangwa ni malaika ambajhe alongi nakhu pa kidonda Sinai. Ojho ndo munu apokili lilobhi lyalijhe hai ni kutupela tete.
39 “Ikabheje ashinakulubhetu gubhakanilenje kwaapilikanila, nikwanokolelanga kunyenje mmitima jabhonji bhalilokolilanga kubhuja ku Mishili.
Ojho ndo munu ambajhe bhadadijhitu bhabeli kuntii; bhan'sukumili patali ni mu mioyo ghyabho bhageukili Misri.
40 Gubhaabhalanjilenje a Aluni. ‘Ntualashiye ashinnungu bha yanamu bhatulongoleyanje mumpanda, pabha a Musha bhatulongolele kukopoka ku Mishili tukakwiimanya yaakoposhele!’
Mu kipindi e'ku bhan'jobhili Haruni.'tutengeneselayi miungu ghyaghibetakutulongosya. Musa ojho, jhaatulongosiaghe kuhomela nchi jha Misri, tumanyilepi kyakin'kolili.'
41 “Penepo gubhaialashiyenje shanamu sha litumbwe lya ng'ombe, gubhatandubhenje kushibhishila mbepei akuno bhalikushiangalilanga shindu shaalaya ashaayene kwa makono gabhonji.
Hiyo bhatengenisi liloli kwa magono aghu ni kupisya sadaka kwa sanamu ejhu na bhahobheleli kwa ndabha jha mbombo jhe mabhoko gha bhene.
42 Ikabheje a Nnungu gubhaaleshilenje, nkupinga bhaitindibhalilanje indu ya kunani kuliunnde, malinga shiyajandikwe nshitabhu sha ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu, ‘Mmanganya mmandu bha pa Ishilaeli! Mwambelenje indu na mbepei, kwa yaka makumi nsheshe kuanga kula?
Lakini K'yara abhageuzili ni kubhapela bhaabudu ajhi litondo lya kunani, kama kya jhilembibhu mu kitabu kya manabii, je, munihomesili nene sadaka sya bhanyama bha mubhachijhili ku jangwa kwa muda bhwa miaka arobaini nyumba jha Israeli?
43 Mmanganya gunnjigelenje liema lika nnungu Moleki, na shanamu sha lutondwa luka nnungu jwenunji Lepani. Igobhi imwaieleyenje nkupinga mwiitindibhalilanje. Kwa nneyo, shinimpelekanje kuubhanda kwaataliya kupunda ku Bhabhuloni!’
Mujhedekili hema jha kubhonanila jha Moleki ni litondo lya K'yara refani, ni picha jha muteng'enisi ni kubhaabudu bhene: ne nibetakubhapeleka patali zaidi jha Babeli.
44 “Kuanga kula ashinakulubhetu bhakwetenje liema lya kong'ondela ndamo ja a Nnungu. Lyashinkualaywa na a Musha malinga shibhalugulilwe na languywa na a Nnungu.
Bhadadi jhitu bha jhe ni hema lya kubhonanila jha bhushuhuda jangwani kama K'yara kyaamuili bhoilongela ni Musa, kwamba ngaaiteng'enisi kwa mfano bhwa bhola bhwaabhuene.
45 Kungai ashinakulubhetu bhatendaga poshelananga liema lila mpaka mobha ga a Yoshua, pubhatolilenje shilambo, ashaayene shilambo bhakabhingwanjeje na a Nnungu. Penepo gulitemi mpaka mobha ga a Daudi.
E'le ndo lihema ambalyobha dadi jhitu, kwa bhwakati ghwa bhene bhaletibhu mu nchi ni Joshua. Ejhhe jhatokili bhwakati bho bhajhingili kumiliki taifa ambalyo K'yara abhabhengili kabla jha uwepo ghwa bha dadi jhitu. Ejhe jha jhele naha mpaka magono gha Daudi,
46 A Daudi gubhatendelwe mituka na a Nnungu, gubhaajujile bhenebho bhaashenjele ndamo a Nnungu bha a Yakobho.
ambajhe akabhaili kibanda makao kwa k'yara ghwa Yakobo
47 Ikabheje a Shelemani ni bhaashenjele nyumba a Nnungu.
Lakini Sulemani an'jengili nyumba jha K'yara.
48 “Nkali nneyo Bhakulungwa a Nnungu bhakaatama nnyumba ja shenga mundu, malinga shibhaabheleketa ankulondola bha a Nnungu,
Hata naha jhe ajhe kunani itama lepi munyumba sya sijengebhu kwa mabhoko; ejhe kama nabii kya ajobhili,
49 Bhakulungwa bhakuti, ‘Kunnungu ni shitengu shangu sha upalume, na pa shilambolyo ni pa bhishila makongono gangu. Shinnjenjelanje nyumba ja shanabhuli? Kushindame pumulila kwei?
Mbingu ndo kiti kyangu kya enzi, ni dunia ndo sehemu jha kubheka magolo gha jhoni. Nyumba jha aina jheleku mwibetakujenga? ijobha Bwana; jhjhendaku sehemu jha nene jha kup'omoseka?
50 Indu yowei ng'eleye nne.’
Siyo kibhoko kya nene kya kibhombili agha ghoha?
51 “Mmanganya bha mbwinya! Mitima na makutu genunji gakakwakunda a Nnungu! Punninginji malinga ashinakulubhenunji. Mobha gowe nnakuntaukanga Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo.
Enye bhanu bha mujhe ni singu sikatafu mwam'belikuiribhwa mioyoni mb'olokolo, khila mara mukampinga Roho mtakatifu; mwibhombil.
52 Bhuli, apali nkulondola jojowe jwa a Nnungu ashinakulubhenunji jubhanga mpotekenga? Bhashinkwaabhulaganga bhalondolenje kwiya kwa Bhakwete Unguja, mmanganya gumwaakanilenje nikwaabhulaga.
Ni nabii jholeku katika manabii ambajhe bhadadi jhinu bhan'tesilipi? Bhabhakhomili manabii bhoha bhabhetokili kabla jha ujio bhwa mmonga mwenye haki,' ni henu mmalikujha mwebhasaliti ni bhauajhi bha muene kabhole,
53 Mmanganya mwaposhelenje shalia jimwapegwilwenje naka malaika jwa kunnungu, ikabheje mwangakundanga.”
enyi bhanu jha mwapokili sheria jhela jha laghisibhu ni malaika lakini mwajhikamuili lepi.”
54 Bhanangulungwa bha lukumbi bhakapilikananjeje genega, gujaapotekenje mitima, bhalikwiilumanga meno kwa shimwa.
Kisha bhajumbe bha baraza bhobhap'eliki mambo agha, bhanyanyibhu mioyo ghya bhene, bhakan'syaghila minu Stefano.
55 Ikabheje a Shitepano akuno bhali bhagumbelwe naka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo, gubhalolile kunani, gubhagubhweni Ukonjelo Gwa puya gwa a Nnungu na a Yeshu bhajimi kunkono nnilo gwa a Nnungu.
Lakini muene bho amemili Roho mtakatifu, alolili kumbinguni kwa makini ni kubhubhona utukufu bhwa K'yara; ni kumbona Yesu ajhemili kibhoko kya kuume kya K'yara.
56 Gubhashite, “Nnolanje! Ngunakukubhona kunnungu kushiunukulwa na Mwana juka Mundu ashijima kunnilo kwa a Nnungu.”
Stefano akajobha, “Langayi nijhibhwene mbingu sifungwiki, ni Mwana gha Adamu ajhemili kibhoko kya kuume kya K'yara.”
57 Penepo, bhandunji bhowe pa lukumbi pala gubhajobhelenje akuno bhaliibhanga makutu gabhonji na makono. Kungai gubhaaumbilenje kwapamo,
Lakini bhajmbe bhe baraza bhapigili kelele kwa sauti mbaha, bhakaziba mb'olokoto sya bhene, bhakan'jumbilila kwa pamonga,
58 gubhaakopoyenje palanga shilambo, gubhaakomilenje maganga. Bhakong'ondelenje bhala gubhabhishilenje nngubho yabhonji muulinda guka nshanda jumo ashemwaga Shauli.
Bhakan'tagha kwibhala mu masi ni kun'tobha ni maganga; ni mashahidi bhakafula nghobho sya bhene kwibhala ni kubheka pasi karibu ni magolo gha n'songolo jhaakutibhweghe Sauli.
59 Gubhapundilenje kwaakoma maganga akuno a Shitepano bhalijuga Nnungu bhalinkuti, “Mmakulungwa a Yeshu mposhele mbumu yangu!”
Bhwakati bhakan'tobha magangaa Stefano, ajhendelili kunkuta Bwana ni kujobha, “Bwana Yesu pokelayi roho jhangu,”.
60 Gubhatindibhele, nigubhagutile kwa lilobhe likulungwa bhalinkuti. “Mmakulungwa nnaalombolanje kwa shene shilebhoshi.” Bhakabheleketeje genego gubhamalile. Na bhalabho a Shauli gubhashibhweni shitendi sha kwabhulaga a Shitepanosho, kuti sha mmbone.
Akapiga magoti ni kukuta kwa sauti mbaha, “Bwana, usibhabhalangili dhambi ejhe.” Bho ajobhi aghu akatili roho.
