Matendo ga Mitume 10
1 Pabile na mundu pulani katika mji wa Kaisaria, lina lyake akemelwa Kornelio, abile nkolo wa kikosi sa Baitalia.
And there was a certain man in Caesarea, named Cornelius, a centurion of that which is called the Italian band;
2 Abile ancha Nnongo na atimwabudu Nnongo na nyumba yake yoti; atitoa mbanje yanansima kwa Ayahudi na aloba kwa Nnongo masoba gote.
A religious man, and fearing God with all his house, giving much alms to the people, and always praying to God.
3 Muda wa saa tisa ya mutwekati, abweni maono malaika wa Nnongo kambakiya, “Kornelio!
This man saw in a vision manifestly, about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of God coming in unto him, and saying to him: Cornelius.
4 Kornelio kamlolekeya malaika na abile na hofu ngolo muno kabaya “Ayee nga namani nkolo?” Malaika kammakiya Maombi ni sadaka yako kwa maskini zimepanda nnani kati kumbukumbu mu'uwepo wa Nnongo.”
And he, beholding him, being seized with fear, said: What is it, Lord? And he said to him: Thy prayers and thy alms are ascended for a memorial in the sight of God.
5 Nambeambe ubatume bandu yendya mji wa Yafa kunneta mundu yumo ywakemelwa Simoni ywabile ukemelwa Petro.
And now send men to Joppe, and call hither one Simon, who is surnamed Peter:
6 Atama na nchenga ngozi ywakemelwa Simoni ambaye nyumba yake ibile kando ya bahari.”
He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side. He will tell thee what thou must do.
7 Baada ya malaika ywabaya ni ywembe kuboka, Kornelio abakema batumishi ba mu'nyumba yaker abele, na askari ywatimwabudu Nnongo kati ya askari babile bamtumikya.
And when the angel who spoke to him was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a soldier who feared the Lord, of them that were under him.
8 Kornelio kaabakiya gote yapangike na kabatuma Yafa.
To whom when he had related all, he sent them to Joppe.
9 Lisoba lya nyaibele saa sita babile mundela na babile papipi na mji, Petro kapanda nnani mu'dari loba.
And on the next day, whilst they were going on their journey, and drawing nigh to the city, Peter went up to the higher parts of the house to pray, about the sixth hour.
10 Na abile na njala na apala kilebe cha kulya, lakini muda bandu bateleka chakulya, kabonekeya maono,
And being hungry, he was desirous to taste somewhat. And as they were preparing, there came upon him an ecstasy of mind.
11 Abweni anga liyongoliwe na chombo chatiuluka na kilebe fulani kati ngobo kolo yatiuluka pae pa'nnema katika kona zote ncheche.
And he saw the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as it were a great linen sheet let down by the four corners from heaven to the earth:
12 Nkati yake pabile na aina yoti ya anyama babile na magolo ncheche na batambaa nnani ya nnema, na iyuni ba angani.
Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of the air.
13 Lilobe lyabaya kwake, “amka, Petro chinja na ulyee.”
And there came a voice to him: Arise, Peter; kill and eat.
14 Lakini Petro kabaya “nga nyoo kwaa, Ngwana kwa sababu nalowa lyaa kwaa kilebe chochte kinajisi na kichapu.
But Peter said: Far be it from me; for I never did eat any thing that is common and unclean.
15 Lakini lilobe lyaisa kwake kae kwa mara yana ibele “Chaakitakasa Nnongo kana ukikeme najisi wala kichafu.”
And the voice spoke to him again the second time: That which God hath cleansed, do not thou call common.
16 Ayee ipangika mara tatu, na chelo chombo chatitolwa kae angani.
And this was done thrice; and presently the vessel was taken up into heaven.
17 Palyo petro abile katika hali ya changanyikiwa nnani ya ago maono yatimaanisha namani, Linga bandu batumilwe na Kornelio bayemi nnongi ya
Now, whilst Peter was doubting within himself, what the vision that he had seen should mean, behold the men who were sent from Cornelius, inquiring for Simon’s house, stood at the gate.
18 nnango, kannaluya ndela ya kuyenda mu'nyumba. Bakema na kunnaluya mana Simoni ywakemelwa Petro atama palo.
And when they had called, they asked, if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, were lodged there.
19 Muda woo Petro abile awasa nnani ya ago maono, Roho kabaya na ywembe, “Linga bandu atatu bakupala.
And as Peter was thinking of the vision, the Spirit said to him: Behold three men seek thee.
20 Amka na uuluke pae na uyende nakwe. Uyogope kwaa yenda nabembe, kwa mana niatumile.”
Arise, therefore, get thee down and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.
21 Petro atiuluka pae kwao na baya “Nenga nga yolo mwamumpala. kwa mwanja namani muisile?”
Then Peter, going down to the men, said: Behold, I am he whom you seek; what is the cause for which you are come?
22 Babaya, “Akida yumo lina lyake Kornelio, mundu wa haki na hupenda kumwabudu Nnongo, na bandu ubaya vema katika litaifa lyote lya Ayahudi, abakilwe na malaika ba Nnongo kututuma twenga ili kuyenda mu'nyumba yake, ili ayowe ujumbe boka kwako.”
Who said: Cornelius, a centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and having good testimony from all the nation of the Jews, received an answer of an holy angel, to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.
23 Petro kabakaribisha jingya mu'nyumba na tama pamope nakwe. Bwamba ya lisoba lyanaibele atiyumuka kayenda pamope nakwe, na alongo achache boka Yafa batikengamana naywembe.
Then bringing them in, he lodged them. And the day following he arose, and went with them: and some of the brethren from Joppe accompanied him.
24 Baikite Kaisalia lisoba lyanaibele. Na Kornelio abile atibalenda abakema pamope alongo bake na mbwiga bake ba karibu.
And the morrow after, he entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, having called together his kinsmen and special friends.
25 Petro pajingii mu'nyumba, Kornelio atikumlaki na kuinama mpaka pae mu'magolo gake kwa kumweshimu.
And it came to pass, that when Peter was come in, Cornelius came to meet him, Cornelius came to meet him, and falling at his feet adored.
26 Lakini Petro kamwinua no baya “Yema; nenga namwene na mundu kae.”
But Peter lifted him up, saying: Arise, I myself also am a man.
27 Palyo Petro atilongela naywembe, atiyenda mu'nyumba kaakuta bandu batikusanyika pamope.
And talking with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
28 Kaamakiya, “Mwenga mwabene mutangite panga ibile kwaa saliya ya kiyahudi shirikiana na tembeleana na mundu ywabile kwaa wa taifa lee. Lakini Nnongo kanibonekeya nenga kuwa nipalika kwaa kumwita mundu yeyote najisi au mchafu.
And he said to them: You know how abominable it is for a man that is a Jew, to keep company or to come unto one of another nation: but God hath shewed to me, to call no man common or unclean.
29 Nga nyoo niisile bila kubisha, panitumilwe kwa ajili yelo. Kwa eyo naanaluya kwa mwanja namani mwatumilwe kwa ajili yango?”
For which cause, making no doubt, I came when I was sent for. I ask, therefore, for what cause you have sent for me?
30 Kornelio kabaya, “Masoba ncheche ganchogo bka leno, muda kati wolo nibile naloba muda wa saa tisa mutwekati mu'nyumba yango: Nibweni nnongi yango mundu ayemi abile na ngobo nyuepe,
And Cornelius said: Four days ago, unto this hour, I was praying in my house, at the ninth hour, and behold a man stood before me in white apparel, and said:
31 Kanibakiya “Kornelio maombi gako gatiyowanika na Nnongo, na sadaka zako kwa maskini zibile kati ukumbusho nnongi ya Nnongo.
Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Kwa eyo batume bandu Yafa na bankeme mundu yumo ywakemelwa Simoni aise kwako, ambaye ukemwa Petro, ambaye atama kwa ywachenga ngozi yumo ywakemelwa Simon ambae nyumba yake ibile pembeni ya libahari.
Send therefore to Joppe, and call hither Simon, who is surnamed Peter: he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea side.
33 Zingatia mtari wolo, “Ni ywembe paaisa alowa baya nimwenga” ubile kwaa mu'maandiko ga kale.
Immediately therefore I sent to thee: and thou hast done well in coming. Now therefore all we are present in thy sight, to hear all things whatsoever are commanded thee by the Lord.
34 Petro ayongoli nkano wake no baya, “Kweli, naaminiya kuwa Nnongo aweza kwaa kuwa na upendeleo.
And Peter opening his mouth, said: In very deed I perceive, that God is not a respecter of persons.
35 Badala yake, kila taifa mundu yeyote ywamwabudia na kupanga matendo ga haki anakubalika kwake.
But in every nation, he that feareth him, and worketh justice, is acceptable to him.
36 Uutangite ujumbe ulioutoa kwa bandu ba Israeli. abile akitangaza habari njema ya amani pitya Yesu Kristo ywabile ni Ngwana wa bote.
God sent the word to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all.)
37 mwenga mwabene mutangite tukio lyalipangite, ambalo lipangite Yudea yote na litumbwile Galilaya, baada ya ubatizo ambao Yohana atiutangaza.
You know the word which hath been published through all Judea: for it began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached,
38 likowe lyalibile linamuhusu Yesu Kristo jinsi Nnongo atimtia mauta kwa Roho Mtakatifu na kwa nguvu. Apangite mema na kuponya bote bateswile na ibilisi, kwa mana Nnongo abile pamope naywembe.
Jesus of Nazareth: how God anointed him with the Holy Ghost, and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
39 Twenga ni mashaidi ba makowe yote yaapangite katika nchi ya Uyahudi na katika Yerusalemu-ayoo ni Yesu ywamulaga na kuntundika mu'nkongo.
And we are witnesses of all things that he did in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they killed, hanging him upon a tree.
40 Ayoo mundu Nnongo atikumfufua lisoba lya tatu na kumpeya kuyowanika.
Him God raised up the third day, and gave him to be made manifest,
41 Kwa bandu bote kwaa, lakini twenga twabene, twalya naywembe na nywaa niywembe baada ya kufufuka boka mu kiwo.
Not to all the people, but to witnesses preordained by God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he arose again from the dead;
42 Atituagiza kuhubiri kwa bandu na kushuhudia kuwa ayoo nga Nnongo ywamchawile kuwa mwamuzi wa babile akoto na babile mu'kiwo.
And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is he who was appointed by God, to be judge of the living and of the dead.
43 Katika ywembe manabii bote bashuhudie, ili panga kila ywaaminiye katika ywembe alowa pokya msamaha wa sambi pitya lina lyake.
To him all the prophets give testimony, that by his name all receive remission of sins, who believe in him.
44 Palyo Petro kayendelya longela nyoo, Roho Mtakatifu kaatweliya bote babile bauyowine ujumbe wake.
While Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them that heard the word.
45 Bandu balo bahusika na likundi lya baaminiya babile atahiriwa-balo bote baisile na Petro-batishangala, kwa sababu ya karama ya Roho Mtakatifu ywatimwagwa kwa mataifa.
And the faithful of the circumcision, who came with Peter, were astonished, for that the grace of the Holy Ghost was poured out upon the Gentiles also.
46 Kwa kuwa bayowine aba bamataifa balongela kwa lugha yenge na kumwabudu Nnongo. Petro kayangwa,
For they heard them speaking with tongues, and magnifying God.
47 “Abile mundu yoyote ywaweza kuzuia maji ili bandu babatizwe kwaa. Bandu aba batimpokya Roho Mtakatifu kati twenga?”
Then Peter answered: Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Ghost, as well as we?
48 Nga kabaamuru babatize kwa lina lya Yesu Kristo. Baadaye banobite atame nabo kwa masoba kadhaa.
And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Then they desired him to tarry with them some days.
