Imisebenzi 17
1 Kwathi sebedabule iAmfipholi leApoloniya, bafika eThesalonika, lapho okwakukhona isinagoge lamaJuda;
Te phoeiah Amphipolis neh Apollonia tea hil rhoi tih Thessalonika la pawk rhoi. Te ah te Judahrhoek kah tunim om.
2 njalo njengomkhuba kaPawuli wangena kuwo, wakhulumisana lawo ngokuvela emibhalweni okwamasabatha amathathu,
Te vaengaha sainoek bangla Paul te amih taengla kun tih Sabbath voei thum amih taengah olcim tea thui.
3 evula etshengisa ukuthi kwakufanele uKristu ahlupheke avuke kwabafileyo, lokuthi: UJesu lo, mina engimtshumayela kini, unguKristu.
Te vaengah, “Khrih he patang tih duek lamkaha thoha kuek te khaw, Jesuh amah tah Khrih ni. Anih te ni kai loh nangmih taengah ka doek,” tilaa ong pah tih a tawn pah.
4 Labanye babo bakholwa, bazihlanganisa loPawuli loSilasi, njalo ixuku elikhulu lamaGriki akhonzayo, lakwabesifazana abadumileyo abangabalutshwana.
Te vaengah amih khuikah hlangvang tah ngailaem tih Paul neh Silas taengla kibaeng uh. Greekrhoek khuiah huta rhaengpueia yetloh a bawk uh tih tanglue rhoek khaw a yool mai moenih.
5 Kodwa amaJuda angakholwayo aba lomona, athatha amanye amadoda amabi angamavila emdangeni, enza ixuku, adunga umuzi; ahlasela indlu kaJasoni, edinga ukubakhuphela ebantwini;
Tedae Judahrhoek tea thatlai uh dongah boethae hlang rhoek te dumlo lailo la hlangvanga khuen tih khopueiah sarhingrhup la a a kuk uh. Te phoeiah Jason im tea pai thil uh tih amih rhoi te rhaengpuei taengah phoe sak ham a toem uh.
6 kwathi engabatholi, adonsela uJasoni labazalwane abathile kubaphathi bomuzi, ememeza esithi: Laba abayaluzelisa umhlaba, bona sebefikile lalapha,
Tedae amih rhoi te a hmuh uh pawt vaengah Jason neh manucarhoek hlangvangte khoboeirhoek taenglaa mawt uh. Te phoeiah, “Amih loh lunglaia palet uh tih he la om rhoi coeng.
7 uJasoni abemukeleyo; lalaba bonke benza okuphambene lemithetho kaKesari, besithi kukhona enye inkosi, enguJesu.
Amihte Jasonloh a doe. Te dongah amih tah Kaisar kah oltloek te boeiha khoboe thiluh tih, 'Manghai tloe Jesuh om,’ a ti uh, “tila pang uh.
8 Asedunga ixuku labaphathi bomuzi besizwa lezizinto.
Te te a yaak uh vaengah hlangping neh khoboeirhoekkhaw thuen uh.
9 Kwathi sebethethe isibambiso kuJasoni lakwabanye, abakhulula.
Tedae Jason neha tloerhoek taengkaha doe uh khangrhang daengah amih te a hlah uh.
10 Njalo abazalwane bahle basusa uPawuli loSilasi babathuma eBeriya ebusuku; okwathi sebefikile khona basuka baya esinagogeni lamaJuda.
Te dongah Paul neh Silas te manucarhoek loh khoyin ah Berea la pahoia tueih uh. A phauhvaengah Judahrhoek kah tunim ah kun uh.
11 Lawo ayelungile kulalawo aweThesalonika, emukela ilizwi ngokuvuma konke, ehlolisisa imibhalo insuku ngensuku, ukuthi zinjalo yini lezizinto.
Tedae amih tah Thessalonika kah rhoek lakah hlangtang la om uh. Amih tah khalanah cungkuem neh olka te a doe uh. Hno he om tang nim tila hnin takuemah cacim tea thuep uh.
12 Ngakho amanengi kuwo akholwa, lakwabesifazana abahloniphekayo abangamaGriki lakwabesilisa abangabalutshwana.
Te dongah amih khuikah loh muepa tangnah uh. Te veangkah Greek huta tongpa hlangcong khawa yool mai moenih.
13 Kodwa kwathi amaJuda eThesalonika esekwazi ukuthi ilizwi likaNkulunkulu liyatshunyayelwa nguPawuli leBeriya, eza lakhona enyakazelisa amaxuku.
Paul loh Berea ah Pathen kah olkaa doek van tila Thessalonika lamkah Judahrhoek loha ming uh. Te vaengah ha lo uh tiha hinghoek dongah hlangping tea hinghuen sakuh.
14 Njalo ngalesosikhathi abazalwane bahle bamthuma uPawuli kungathi uya elwandle; kodwa uSilasi loTimothi basala khona.
Te dongah tuitunli duela caeh sak ham manucarhoek loh Paul te pahoia thak uh. Tedae Silas neh Timothy tah pahoi duem rhoi pueng.
15 Lalabo ababephelekezela uPawuli, bamfikisa eAtene; sebemukele umlayezelo oya kuSilasi loTimothi, ukuthi beze kuye ngokuphangisa okukhulu, basuka bahamba.
Te vaengkaha hmoel rhoek loh Paul te Athens duelaa thak uh. Te phoeiah Silas neh Timothy te anih taengah thamaa la lo sak ham olpaek te a doe uh tih bal uh.
16 Kwathi uPawuli esabalindele eAtene, umoya wakhe wakhathazeka phakathi kwakhe, ebona umuzi ugcwele izithombe.
Amih te Paul loh Athens ah a rhing. Khopuei mueirhol la a poeh te a hmuh vaengah a mueihla tah a khuiah umya.
17 Ngakho waphikisana lamaJuda esinagogeni labanye abakhonzayo, lasemdangeni insuku zonke lalabo ahlangana labo.
Te dongah tunim kah Judahrhoek nen khaw, aka bawk rhoek nen khaw, hnin takuem kah hnoyoih hmuen aha hmuh rhoek taengah khaw a thuingong uh.
18 Labathile kuzo izazi zamaEpikuri lamaStoyiki baphikisana laye. Labanye bathi: Uwumane lolu lufuna ukuthini? Kodwa abanye bathi: Kungathi ungotshumayela onkulunkulu bezizweni; ngoba ngevangeli watshumayela kubo uJesu lokuvuka kwabafileyo.
A lak vaengah Epikouri neh Satoiko kah poeksoemkung rhoek long khaw anih te a loepdak uh. Te dongah a ngen loh, “Olom loh banim thui a ngaih he. A tloe rhoek loh, “Kholong kah sungrhai aka thuikung i ti. Jesuh neh thohkoepnah ni a phong,” a ti uh.
19 Basebemthatha, bamusa eAreyopagu besithi: Singazi yini ukuthi iyini limfundiso entsha oyifundisayo?
Anih te a tuuk uh tih Areo Pagos la a khuen uh phoeiah, “Nang loh a thai la thuituennah dongah na thui te ka ming uh thai aya?
20 Ngoba uletha indaba ezimangalisayo ezithile endlebeni zethu; ngakho sifisa ukwazi ukuthi lezizinto ziyini.
Kaimih hnavue ah nang khuen dongaha ngen tah suel coeng. Te dongah tekaha ti ngaih te ming ham ka cai uh,” a ti uh.
21 Ngoba bonke abeAtene lezethekeli ezihlala khona babechitha isikhathi kungeyisikho ngolutho olunye, ngaphandle kokutshela lokuzwa into entsha.
Te vaengkah Athen pum neh aka laiom yinlai ham khaw a tloe moenih. A hoeng hoep vaengah pakhat khaw a thui tiha thai la pakhat khaw a yaak uh.
22 Kwathi uPawuli esima phakathi kweAreyopagu, wathi: Madoda maAtene, ngiyabona ukuthi ezintweni zonke kungathi lilenkolelo enkulu.
Te dongah Paul loh Areo Pagos laklung ah pai tih, “Athen hlang rhoek, cungkuem dongah na cuep uh te ka hmuh.
23 Ngoba ngithe ngidabula ngikhangela izinto zenu elizikhonzayo, ngasengifica ilathi elilotshwe ukuthi: KUNKULUNKULU ONGAZIWAYO. Lowo-ke elimkhonza lingamazi, nguye mina engimtshumayela kini.
Tedae ka caeh vengah na bawknah te ka thuep hatah hmueihtuk pakhat dongah MANGVAWT Pathen la a daek te ka hmuh bal. Te dongah mangvawt taengah tho na thueng uh. He ni kai loh nangmih taengah ka doek.
24 UNkulunkulu owenza umhlaba lakho konke okukuwo, yena, oyiNkosi yezulu lomhlaba, kahlali emathempelini enziwe ngezandla,
Diklai neh a khuikah boeih aka saii Pathen, vaan neh diklai kah Boeipa la aka om he kutsai bawkim ahkhoa sak moenih. Hlanghing kut loh a yuh a yam ham pakhat khaw a kuek moenih.
25 futhi kakhonzwa ngezandla zabantu, njengoswela ulutho, ngoba yena uqobo lwakhe uyabapha bonke impilo lokuphefumula lazo zonke izinto;
Amahloh a cungkuem taengah hingnah, hiil neha cungkuem hea paek.
26 njalo wazenza zonke izizwe zabantu zivela egazini linye, ukuthi zihlale ebusweni bonke bomhlaba, wazimisela izikhathi eziqunyiweyo ngaphambili lemingcele yokuhlala kwazo;
Pakhat lamloh diklai hman boeih ah khosak ham namtom hlang boeih khawa saii. Khoninga hmoel tih amih omnah te khorhi laa suem pah.
27 ukuze zidinge iNkosi, ukuthi mhlawumbe sibili zimuzwe zimthole, njalo kanti kakhatshana kulowo lalowo wethu.
Pathen tea toem atah amahte tapkhoeh m'phathuep sak tih m'ming sak ni. Tedae amah te mamih pakhat rhip taeng lamloh lakhla la a om moenih.
28 Ngoba kuye siphila njalo sihamba futhi sikhona; njengoba lembongi ezithile zakini zithe: Ngoba futhi siyinzalo yakhe.
Amah dongah n'hing uh tih m'pongpa la ng'om uh. Nangmih khui kah hlangvang loh hlohlai neh a thui vanbangla, amah kah namtu la n'om uh.
29 Ngakho lokhu siyinzalo kaNkulunkulu, kakufanele ukuthi sinakane ukuthi ubuNkulunkulu bunjengegolide kumbe isiliva loba ilitshe, okubazwe ngeminwe langokunakana kwabantu.
Pathen kah namtu la aka om loh sui, ngun, lungto, bungkhutnah kutnoek neh hlang kah poeknah he Pathen bangla om tila poek ham a om moenih.
30 Ngakho izikhathi zokungazi uNkulunkulu kazinanzanga, kodwa khathesi uyalaya bonke abantu endaweni zonke ukuthi baphenduke;
Kotalhnah tue vaengah Pathen loh n'hnoelrhoeng mai cakhaw hlang boeih te yut sak ham khotomrhalia uen coeng.
31 ngoba umisile usuku, azakwahlulela ngalo umhlaba ngokulunga, ngendoda ayimisileyo, waqinisa kubo bonke, ngokuyivusa kwabafileyo.
A hmoel hlang loh duengnah dongah lunglai he laitloek thil ham khohnin tea pai sak coeng. Anihte duek lamkaha thoh tih a cungkuem ham tangnah khaw a soep sak,” a ti nah.
32 Kwathi besizwa ngokuvuka kwabafileyo, abanye bahleka usulu; kodwa abanye bathi: Sizaphinda sikuzwe ngalokhu.
Duek lamkah thohkoepnah te a yaak uh vaengah hlangvang loh nueih thil cakhawa ngen long tah, “Nang kawng he koep ka hnatun bal ni,” a ti uh.
33 Langokunjalo uPawuli waphuma phakathi kwabo.
Te vanbangla Paul tah amih khui lamkah loh vik nong.
34 Kodwa amadoda athile anamathela kuye, akholwa; phakathi kwawo kwakukhona loDiyonisiyu umAreyopagu, lowesifazana obizo lakhe nguDamari, labanye kanye labo.
Tedae aka tangnah hlang hlangvang rhoek tah Paul taengah kap uh. Amih khuiah Areopagite khoboei Dionysus, te phoeiah huta pakhat, a mingah Damaris neh amih taengkaha tloe rhoek khaw omuh.
