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 they came and entered into the synagogue of the Jihudoyee, and so spake with them as that many believed of Jihudoyee and of Javanoyee.
2 Nambu Vayawudi vevabeli kusadika vakavakulukisa vandu vangali Vayawudi vavayomela Pauli na Banaba.
But Jihudoyee, of those who were not persuaded, excited the Gentiles to ill-treat 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.
But they much time were there, and openly discoursed concerning the Lord; and He testified of the word of his grace by the signs and the wonders which he wrought by their hands.
4 Vandu va muji wula vakalekengana, vangi vakavya upandi wa Vayawudi na vangi vakavya upandi wa vamitumi vala.
And all the society of the city was divided: of them some were with the Jihudoyee, and of them (some) adhered to the apostles.
5 Kangi vandu vangali Vayawudi na Vayawudi pamonga na vachilongosi wavi, vakakita mpangu wa kuvakitila gahakau na kuvakoma kwa maganga.
But there was made a movement by the Gentiles and by the Jihudoyee and their chiefs to maltreat them, and to crush them with stones.
6 Vamitumi vala pevamanyili mpangu wenuwo, vakajumbalila ku Lusitila na ku Delibe, miji ya ku Lukonia, na pamwambu ya miji ya papipi,
And when they knew, they passed away, and escaped to the cities of Lykania, Lystra, and Derbe, and the villages which surround them,
7 ndi vakayendelela kukokosa Lilovi la Bwina.
and there evangelized.
8 Lusitila kwenuko kwavili na mundu mmonga mweavi ngagenda kutumbula kuvelekewa kwaki, katu nakuhotola kugenda.
AND a certain man dwelt in the city of Lystra who was afflicted in his feet, lame from the womb of his mother, (and) who had never walked.
9 Ngagenda yula amyuwanilayi Pauli peakokosayi. Hinu Pauli akamlolokesa takataka na peamanyili kuvya avi na sadika ya kuhotola kulamiswa,
This heard Paulos discourse. And when Paulos saw him, and knew that there was faith in him to be saved,
10 akamjovela kwa lwami luvaha, “Yima na magendelu gaku!” Bahapo mundu yula akahumba na kutumbula kugenda.
he said to him with a high voice, To thee I say, in the name of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, Stand upon thy feet.
11 Msambi wa vandu pavawene lijambu leakitili Pauli, vakajova kwa lwami luvaha muluga ya Kilukaonia, “Hinu vachapanga vatibwelili kwa musula ya mundu!”
And leaping, he stood and walked. And the assembly of the people, when they saw what Paulos had done, lifted up their voice in the language of the country, and said, Gods in the likeness of men have come down unto us.
12 Vakavapele mahina ga uchapanga, Banaba vakamkemela Zeu, na Pauli ndava muni avi mjovaji mkulu, vakamkemela Helime.
And they named Bar Naba, lord of the gods; and Paulos, Hermis, because he was foremost in discourse.
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 the lord of the gods, who was without the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates of the court of the place where they dwelt, and willed to 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 Bar Naba and Paulos, when they heard, rent their garments, and sprang up, and came out to the crowd. And they cried,
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 said, Men, what do you? We also are children of men liable to sufferings like you, (and) who preach to you that from these vanities you should turn unto Aloha the living, who made heaven and earth, and the seas, and all that is in them:
16 Kadeni Chapanga avalekekisi vandu voha vahenga chevigana vene.
who in former generations left all nations to walk in ways of their own;
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.”
yet leaving not himself without witness, while he did them good from heaven, and sent down rain, and multiplied the fruits in their times, and filled with food and gladness their hearts.
18 Pamonga na vamitumi kujova malovi genago, yavili nakunonopa kuubelelela msambi wa vandu ukoto kuvawusila luteta.
And when these they had said, they scarcely restrained the people that some one should not sacrifice 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 there came thither Jihudoyee from Ikanon and from Antiokia, and stirred up against them the people; and they stoned Paulos, and dragged him out of the city, because they thought that he was dead.
20 Nambu vawuliwa pavamtindili akayumuka akawuya kumujini. Chilau yaki mwene pamonga na Banaba vakahamba ku Delibe.
And the disciples gathered to him, and, arising, he entered the city. AND the day after he went forth from thence with Bar Naba, and came to Derbe the city.
21 Pauli na Banaba vakakokosa Lilovi la Bwina ku Delibe, ndi vakayonjokeseka vawuliwa vamahele. Kangi vakawuya ku Antiokia vakavedukila Lusitila na Ikonio.
And when they had preached to the sons of the city, they discipled many. And they returned and came to Lystra the city, and to Ikanon, and to Antiokia,
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, and exhorting them to persevere in the faith. And they said to them, that through much tribulation it behoveth to enter the kingdom of Aloha.
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 they constituted for them in all the churches presbyters, having fasted with them and prayed, and commended them to our Lord in whom they had believed.
24 Pevamalili kupitila Pisidia ndi vakahika Pamfulia.
And when they had gone through the country of Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia,
25 Kangi pevamalili kuvakokosela ujumbi wula vandu va ku Peliga, ndi vakahamba ku Atalia.
and when they had preached in the city Perga the word of the Lord, they went down to Atalia,
26 Mulugendu vakahuma ku Atalia vakawuya ku Antiokia kwevayupiwi ubwina wa Chapanga, ndava ya lihengu levakitili.
and from thence voyaged by sea and came to Antiokia, because from thence they had been commended to the grace of the Lord for the 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 all the church had convened, they recounted every thing which Aloha had done with them, and that he had opened the door of the faith unto the Gentiles.
28 Ndi vakatama pamonga mulukumbi lutali na vamsadika vala.
And much time were they there with the disciples.
