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.
At Iconium Paul and Barnabas went together into the synagogue of the Jews and spoke in such a way that a great multitude of both Jews and Greeks believed.
2 Nambu Vayawudi vevabeli kusadika vakavakulukisa vandu vangali Vayawudi vavayomela Pauli na Banaba.
But the Jews who refused to believe stirred up and corrupted the minds of the Gentiles to be against the brothers.
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.
So Paul and Barnabas spent a long time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who was testifying to the message of his grace by granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4 Vandu va muji wula vakalekengana, vangi vakavya upandi wa Vayawudi na vangi vakavya upandi wa vamitumi vala.
But the population of the city was divided; some were with the Jews, and some were with the apostles.
5 Kangi vandu vangali Vayawudi na Vayawudi pamonga na vachilongosi wavi, vakakita mpangu wa kuvakitila gahakau na kuvakoma kwa maganga.
And when an attempt was made by both the Gentiles and the Jews, together with their rulers, to mistreat them 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,
Paul and Barnabas became aware of it and fled for refuge to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra and Derbe and to the surrounding region.
7 ndi vakayendelela kukokosa Lilovi la Bwina.
There they continued to preach the gospel.
8 Lusitila kwenuko kwavili na mundu mmonga mweavi ngagenda kutumbula kuvelekewa kwaki, katu nakuhotola kugenda.
Now there was a man sitting in Lystra who could not use his feet. He had been lame from his mother's womb and had never walked.
9 Ngagenda yula amyuwanilayi Pauli peakokosayi. Hinu Pauli akamlolokesa takataka na peamanyili kuvya avi na sadika ya kuhotola kulamiswa,
This man listened to Paul as he was speaking. Paul looked at him intently, and when he saw that he had faith to be healed,
10 akamjovela kwa lwami luvaha, “Yima na magendelu gaku!” Bahapo mundu yula akahumba na kutumbula kugenda.
he said with a loud voice, “Stand up on yoʋr feet!” So the man leaped up and began to walk.
11 Msambi wa vandu pavawene lijambu leakitili Pauli, vakajova kwa lwami luvaha muluga ya Kilukaonia, “Hinu vachapanga vatibwelili kwa musula ya mundu!”
When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in Lycaonian, “The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men.”
12 Vakavapele mahina ga uchapanga, Banaba vakamkemela Zeu, na Pauli ndava muni avi mjovaji mkulu, vakamkemela Helime.
Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes, since he was the one who took the lead in speaking.
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.
Then the priest of the shrine of Zeus that was located in front of their city brought bulls and garlands to the city gates, intending to offer sacrifices together with the crowds.
14 Nambu Banaba na Pauli pevayuwini malovi gala vakapapula nyula zavi na kujumbalila pamsambi wa vandu wula, na kujova kwa lwami luvaha.
But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard about it, they tore their clothes and rushed into the crowd, 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.
“Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men with the same nature as you. We are bringing you good news, telling you to turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them.
16 Kadeni Chapanga avalekekisi vandu voha vahenga chevigana vene.
In past generations he allowed all the nations to go their own way,
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.”
although he did not leave himself without a witness in that he did good by giving you 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.
Yet even by saying these things, they barely restrained the crowds from offering sacrifices 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.
Then some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and persuaded the crowds. They stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.
20 Nambu vawuliwa pavamtindili akayumuka akawuya kumujini. Chilau yaki mwene pamonga na Banaba vakahamba ku Delibe.
But when the disciples gathered around him, he rose and entered the city. The next day he went on 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.
After preaching the gospel in that city and making many disciples, Paul and Barnabas returned to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch,
22 Ndi vakavakangamalisa mitima vamsadika, vasindimala na sadika yavi, vakavajovela ngati tavoha yikutigana kuyingila Muunkosi wa Chapanga munjila ya mang'ahiso gavaha.
strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and telling them that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.
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 appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting they entrusted them to the Lord in whom they had come to believe.
24 Pevamalili kupitila Pisidia ndi vakahika Pamfulia.
After passing through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia,
25 Kangi pevamalili kuvakokosela ujumbi wula vandu va ku Peliga, ndi vakahamba ku Atalia.
and when they had 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.
From there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work they had now completed.
27 Na pavahikili vahengili mngonganu na vamsadika vakavajovela vandu mambu goha, Chapanga geagahengili pamonga nawu, na cheavadindulili vandu vangali Vayawudi mlyangu wa sadika.
After they arrived and gathered the church together, they reported all that God had done through them, and how he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.
28 Ndi vakatama pamonga mulukumbi lutali na vamsadika vala.
And they stayed there with the disciples for some time.
