Matendu 14
1 Mewawa ku Ikonio kula, Pauli na Banaba vakayingila munyumba ya kukonganekela Vayawudi. Vakalongela cha ukekesi hati msambi uvaha wa Vayawudi na Vagiliki vakasadika.
And it came to pass at Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and spoke in such a manner that a great multitude, both of the Jews and of the Greeks, believed.
2 Nambu Vayawudi vevabeli kusadika vakavakulukisa vandu vangali Vayawudi vavayomela Pauli na Banaba.
But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the minds of the Gentiles, and filled them with malignity against the brethren.
3 Vayendalili kutama kwenuko mulukumbi lutali. Vakalongela cha ukekesi ndava ya Bambu, na Bambu mwene ajilangisi uchakaka wa ujumbi wevihumisa kwa ubwina waki, kwa kuvahotosa kukita gachinamtiti na makangaso.
They, however, staid there a considerable time, speaking boldly for the Lord; who gave attestation to the word of his grace, and granted signs and miracles to be done by their hands.
4 Vandu va muji wula vakalekengana, vangi vakavya upandi wa Vayawudi na vangi vakavya upandi wa vamitumi vala.
So the multitude of the city was divided; and some were with the Jews, and others with the Apostles.
5 Kangi vandu vangali Vayawudi na Vayawudi pamonga na vachilongosi wavi, vakakita mpangu wa kuvakitila gahakau na kuvakoma kwa maganga.
But, as a violent attempt was made, both by the Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, to assault and stone them;
6 Vamitumi vala pevamanyili mpangu wenuwo, vakajumbalila ku Lusitila na ku Delibe, miji ya ku Lukonia, na pamwambu ya miji ya papipi,
they, having received intelligence of it, fled to Lystra, and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the adjacent country:
7 ndi vakayendelela kukokosa Lilovi la Bwina.
and there they declared the glad tidings.
8 Lusitila kwenuko kwavili na mundu mmonga mweavi ngagenda kutumbula kuvelekewa kwaki, katu nakuhotola kugenda.
Now, there was a certain man at Lystra, disabled in his feet; so lame, from his birth, that he had never walked.
9 Ngagenda yula amyuwanilayi Pauli peakokosayi. Hinu Pauli akamlolokesa takataka na peamanyili kuvya avi na sadika ya kuhotola kulamiswa,
This man heard Paul speaking, who, fixing his eyes upon him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed;
10 akamjovela kwa lwami luvaha, “Yima na magendelu gaku!” Bahapo mundu yula akahumba na kutumbula kugenda.
said, with a loud voice, Stand upright on your feet. And he leaped up, and walked.
11 Msambi wa vandu pavawene lijambu leakitili Pauli, vakajova kwa lwami luvaha muluga ya Kilukaonia, “Hinu vachapanga vatibwelili kwa musula ya mundu!”
And the multitude, seeing what Paul had done, lifted up their voices, saying, in the Lycaonian language, The gods are descended to us in the likeness of men.
12 Vakavapele mahina ga uchapanga, Banaba vakamkemela Zeu, na Pauli ndava muni avi mjovaji mkulu, vakamkemela Helime.
And Barnabas they called Jupiter, and Paul, Mercury, because he was the chief speaker.
13 Mteta wa chapanga Zeu, nyumba yaki yavi pamuhana ya muji, akagega ng'ombi mpapakasi na njingwa ya maluva palongolo ya mlyangu ukulu muji pamonga na msambi wa vandu vagana kuvawusila luteta vamitumi.
And the priest of Jupiter, whose image was before the city, brought oxen, with garlands, to the gates; and would, with the multitude, have offered sacrifice to them.
14 Nambu Banaba na Pauli pevayuwini malovi gala vakapapula nyula zavi na kujumbalila pamsambi wa vandu wula, na kujova kwa lwami luvaha.
But the Apostles, Barnabas and Paul, hearing of it, rent their mantles, and ran in among the multitude, crying out,
15 “Vagosi nyenye, ndava kyani mwikita lijambu lenili? Tete mewa tavandu ngati nyenye. Ndi tikuvakokosela Lilovi la Bwina, nyenye mukoto kugundamila chimong'omong'o, mumuwuyila Chapanga wa wumi, mweawumbili kunani na mulima na nyanja pamonga na vindu vyoha.
and saying, Men, why do you these things? We are your fellow-mortals, and are declaring the glad tidings to you, that you may turn from these vanities to the living God; who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all living things which are in them:
16 Kadeni Chapanga avalekekisi vandu voha vahenga chevigana vene.
who, in former generations, permitted all the nations to walk in their own ways;
17 Nambu Chapanga alekili lepi kujilangisa kwa mambu gabwina geavahengili, kuvatonyela fula kuhuma kunani, kuvapela mabenu mulukumbi lwaki na kuvapela chakulya cha kuyimemesa mitima yavi luheku.”
though he did not leave himself without witness, doing good, and giving us showers of rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.
18 Pamonga na vamitumi kujova malovi genago, yavili nakunonopa kuubelelela msambi wa vandu ukoto kuvawusila luteta.
And, saying these things, they, with difficulty, restrained the people from sacrificing to them.
19 Kangi Vayawudi nunuyu vakabwela kuhuma Antiokia na Ikonio, vakavakulukisa vandu, vamtova Pauli na maganga. Vakamkwega mbaka kuvala ya muji, kuni vahololela afwili.
But Jews came thither from Antioch and Iconium, and persuaded the multitude; and having stoned Paul, they dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.
20 Nambu vawuliwa pavamtindili akayumuka akawuya kumujini. Chilau yaki mwene pamonga na Banaba vakahamba ku Delibe.
But, as the disciples were gathered about him, he rose up, and entered into the city; and the next day he departed, with Barnabas, to Derbe.
21 Pauli na Banaba vakakokosa Lilovi la Bwina ku Delibe, ndi vakayonjokeseka vawuliwa vamahele. Kangi vakawuya ku Antiokia vakavedukila Lusitila na Ikonio.
And having declared the gospel to that city, and made a considerable number of disciples; they returned to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch,
22 Ndi vakavakangamalisa mitima vamsadika, vasindimala na sadika yavi, vakavajovela ngati tavoha yikutigana kuyingila Muunkosi wa Chapanga munjila ya mang'ahiso gavaha.
confirming the souls of the disciples; exhorting them to continue in the faith, and testifying that it is necessary we should enter into the kingdom of God through many tribulations.
23 Pauli na Banaba vakavahagula vagogo mukila msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu ndava ya kuyupa Chapanga na kujihinisa chakulya, vakavavika muulonda wa Bambu mwevakumsadika.
And when they had constituted elders for them, in every congregation, having prayed to God, with fasting; they committed them to the Lord, in whom they had believed.
24 Pevamalili kupitila Pisidia ndi vakahika Pamfulia.
And passing through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.
25 Kangi pevamalili kuvakokosela ujumbi wula vandu va ku Peliga, ndi vakahamba ku Atalia.
And having spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.
26 Mulugendu vakahuma ku Atalia vakawuya ku Antiokia kwevayupiwi ubwina wa Chapanga, ndava ya lihengu levakitili.
And they sailed thence to Antioch, whence they had been recommended to the grace of God, for that work which they had accomplished.
27 Na pavahikili vahengili mngonganu na vamsadika vakavajovela vandu mambu goha, Chapanga geagahengili pamonga nawu, na cheavadindulili vandu vangali Vayawudi mlyangu wa sadika.
And when they were come thither, and had gathered the congregation together, they related what God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.
28 Ndi vakatama pamonga mulukumbi lutali na vamsadika vala.
And they spent a considerable time there with the disciples.
