Matendu 19
1 Shipindi Apolu pakaweriti Korintu, Paulu kagenditi mwanja seemu za bala, kaziti Efesu kweni kawoniti wafundwa wamu.
Lukale kuuti u Apologize ye aliku Korintho upaulo akakila ku kyanya na kufika kulikaja lya Efeso, pe akavonaakavona avavulanisivua vamo ukuo.
2 Kakosiiti, “hashi, pampatiti kuwera wajimira myangiti Rohu. Mnanagala?” Nawomberi wamwankula, “Ndala! Hatweni pikanira handa kwana Rohu Mnanagala.”
U Paulo akam'bula, “Nde, mukamwupile uMhepo u Mwimike yemukitike?” Vakam'bula, “nambe, natulyapulike ndavule uMhepo u Mwimike.”
3 Nayomberi katakula, “Vinu mpatiti ubatizu wa ntambu gaa?” Wamwankula, “ubatizu wa Yohani.”
U Paulo akaati, “lino umue mukofwighue ndani?” Vakaati, “Mulwofugho ulwa Yohana.
4 Nayomberi Paulu katakula, “ubatizu wa Yohani uweriti wa kulanguziya handa wantu waleka vidoda. Yohani kawagambiriti wantu wamjimiri ulii yomberi yakaweriti kakwiza pa yomberi, yaani Yesu.”
Kange uPaulo akamula, “U Yohana alyofwighe ulwofugho ulwa lulato. Akavavula avanhu vala kuuti mulondua kukumwitika jula juno ikwisa pa mwene, ndavule, u Yesu.”
5 Pa kupikinira aga, wabatiziti kwa litawu lya Mtuwa Yesu.
Avanhu ye vapulike imola iiji, peva kofughua kulitavua lya Mutwa Yesu.
6 Su, Paulu kawatulira mawoku, na Rohu Mnanagala kawasulukira. Wanja kutakula likabila luhenga na kubwera ujumbi wa Mlungu.
Lukale u Paulo yavikile amavoko gha mwene kuvanave, uMhepo u Mwimike Akita kuvanave pe akatengula kujova injovele kuviila.
7 Woseri waweriti wantu lilongu na wawili.
Palikimo Avenue valyale avaghosi kijigho nava viili.
8 Kwa shipindi sha myezi mitatu Paulu kaweriti kankugenda munumba za Mlungu, kawera na matakuliranu ga kukwegiziya nentu kuusu ufalumi wa Mlungu.
U Paulo alyalutile kunyumba ijakufunyila akajova na Kun'kangasia amasiki gha meesi ghatatu. Alyale ilongosia kupuling'ana nakuvakwesa avaanhu vano valungime vwimila u vutua uvwa Nguluve.
9 Kumbiti wamonga waweriti wakakatala, walema kujimira, wanja kuyowera vidoda kuusu njira ayi ya Mtuwa mulijojiniku lya wantu. Panu Paulu kaulekiti uganja nawomberi, kawatola pambwega wafundwa wakuwi walii, kaweriti kankuyowera nawomberi kila lishaka panumba ya masomu ga Tiranu.
Looli ava Yahudi avange valyale vakali avange vano navikwitika, valyatengwile kujova amavivi kulungama musila ija Kilisite pavulongolo pa kipugha. Kange u Paulo akalekine na veene pe akavabaghula vano vikutika navene. Umwene akatengula kujova mufighono fyooni kuvukumbi uvwa Tirano.
10 Kendereyiti kutenda hangu kwa shipindi sha vinja viwili ata wanalushi woseri wa Asiya, Wayawudi na wantu wa maisi gamonga, waweza kupikinira shisoweru sha Mtuwa.
Ulu lulyaghendelile amaka gha viili, looli vonivoni valyle vikukala ku Asia valyapulike ilisio lya Mutwa, vooni ava Yahudi nava Yunani.
11 Mlungu katenditi mauzauza ga kulikangasha kwa mawoku ga Paulu.
U nguluve alyale ivomba imbombo mumavoko agha Paulo,
12 Wantu waweriti wankutola shitambala na nguwu zimonga zya lihengu zyeni Paulu kaweriti kankuvala, wazijegiti kwa walweli, nawomberi waponiziwa malweri gawu na walii wawaweriti na washamshera wadoda walawa.
kuuti avatamu valyavuvusivue, nu Mhepo umulamafu akavahuma, unsiki ghono valyalolile ikitambala namenda ghano ghakahumile mum'bili gha Paaulo.
13 Wayawudi wamu yawawusiya wamshera wadoda. Wagenditi mwanja aku na aku wankujera kulitumiya litawu lya Mtuwa Yesu mweni Paulu kankumbwera.
Looli pevalyale ava Yahudi vano valyale vipunga uvupepo vikyula kukilila ikisala ikio, vakavombelagha ilitavua lya Yesu vwimila vuvanave vavuo. Valyavavulile vala kuuti valyale niili pepo ililamafu; vakaati, “Nikuvavula muhume mulitavua lya Yesu juno u Paulo ikun'dalikila.”
14 Wana saba wa Sikewa na Mtambika Mkulu wa Shiyawudi, woseri watenditi hangu.
Vano valyaghavombile agha valyale vaana budika lubali vwa ntekesi umbaha ughwa kiyahudi, ni Skewa.
15 Kumbiti shamshera kadoda kawankula, “Nummana Yesu, nummana viraa Paulu, kumbiti mwenga mwa gaa?”
Amapepo amalamafu vakavamula, “U Yesu nun'kaguile, naju Paulo ni n'kaguile; looli umwe mwemue va veeni?” Jula umhepo umulamafu akavahadukila
16 Shakapanu muntu ulii yakalendemeriti kawakopokera woseri kwa likakala, kawakanka likakala. Na wana awa wa Skewa watuga kulawa mnumba mlii pawawera shivula na kuwera na vironda.
mun'kate mwa munhu ava punga vupepo na akavasinda ingufu na kukuvatova. Pe vakakimbilila kuhuma munyumba jila vakale sila Manda kange vakalemile.
17 Kila muntu Efesu aku, Myawudi na muntu yakawera ndiri Myawudi, kapikaniriti kuusu shitwatira ashi. Woseri waweriti na lyoga, walikwisa litawu lya Mtuwa Yesu.
Ilio likakagulika ku vooni, ava Yahudi nava Yunani, vano valyale vikukala kuula ku Efeso. Valyale nuludwesi luvaha fiijo, nilitavua lya Mutwa likongelela kupulikika.
18 Wawumini watangala walawiriti wajimira paweru vitwatira avi vyawaweriti watenda.
Kange, vinga avaviitiki valisile nakulata kange vakasimilisia imbombo imbivi sino vakavombile.
19 Wamonga waweriti wankutenda vitwatira vya uhawi shipindi shipititi, wajojiniriti vintola vyawu, wavilunguziya paulongolu pa woseri. Wakisiyiti galama ya vintola avi, wawona ifikira vipandi vya shuma malongu mhanu elufu.
Vinga valyale vivomba uvughanga vakakong'ania ifitabu fivanave, vakanyanya pa vulongolo pa munhu ghweni. Unsiki avene ye vavalile ulutalama lwa fiinu, lilyalelilyale fighavo fijigho fihano ifya ndalama.
20 Toziya ayi, shisoweru sha Mtuwa shendereya kweneya na shiwera na likakala nentu.
Pa uluo ilisio lya Mutwa likakwilana muvukome fiijo uvwa ngufu.
21 Pa vitwatira avi, Paulu kaamuiti kugenda Yerusalemu kwa kupitila Makedoniya na Akaya katakuliti, “Pa kusoka aku, infiruwa kuiwona Rumi viraa.”
Isa Paulo kukwilana imbombo inofu ija mwene kula ku Efeso, u Mhepo akamulongosia kuluta ku Yerusalemu kukilila ku Makedonia naku Akaya; akaati, “Yekwene ukuo, jininoghile kujagha i Rumi.”
22 Avi, kawatumiti wawili wa ntumintumi wakuwi, Timotewu na Erastu walonguleri genda Makedoniya, yomberi kalikaliti kwa katepu aku Asiya.
U Paulo akavomola ku Makedonia avavulanisivua va mwene vaviili, Timotheo nu Erasto, vano valyale vikutanga. Looli umwene jujuo akajighe ku Asia mu nsiki.
23 Shipindi ashi ndo pailawiriti ndewu nkulu aku Efesu toziya ya njira ayi ya Mtuwa.
Unsiki ughuo kukahumile ulunjughanjugha ulukome ukuo ku Efeso vwimila isiila jiila.
24 Kuweriti na munyawa shuma yumu wamshema Demetiriu, yomberi kaweriti na lihengu lya kunyawa vinyagu vya numba ya mlungu gwa shidala yawamshema Aritemi. Lihengu ali liwayupiti wanyawa wakuwi mota ngulu.
U sonora jumo ilitavua lyamwene Demetrio, juno alyatendile ifihwan ifya ndalama ifya Nguluve Diana, alyaletile ifighusivua ifivaha kuvamang'anyi.
25 Demetiriu kawajojiniriti pamwera watenda lihengu awa pamwera na wamonga wawaweriti na lihengu handa ali, kawagambira, “Wanalushi, muvimana handa shipatu shangu shilawirana na biyashala ayi.
Pe akavakong'ania ava mang'anyi ava mbombo jila na kuuti, “Vagojo mukagwile kuuti mufighusivua ifii tukwingisia indalama nyinga.
26 Vinu, muweza kupikinira na kuliwonera maweni vitwatira avi Paulu kankuvitenda, panu Efesu hera ndiri, ira viraa koseri Muasiya. Yomberi kawashawishi na kuwagalambula wantu wajumiri handa wamilungu walii yawanyawitwi na wantu milungu ndiri ata shididini.
Mulola na kupulika kuuti, usue tuliapa pa Efeso, looli pipi ni Asia jooni, u Paulo uju avavulile na kuvashetulania avanhu viinga. Ijova kuuti kweghasili amanumbela Ghana ghavombilue na mavoko.
27 Su iwezekana kuwera biyashara yetu iweri na litawu lidoda. Hangu hera ndiri, kumbiti shitwatira ashi shiweza kuitenda numba ya mlungu Aritemi iweri shintu ndiri sha mana. Shakapanu nzyumi zakuwi ayu Asiya na pasipanu poseri ntambu yawamguwira, Hayiperi.”
Na kwekuuti kwelile ulutalaamu kuuti ifighusivua fiitu nafilonduagha kange, looli nii nyumba ija Nguluve ijakufunyila umama um'baha u Diana lunoghile kusyojola kuuti asita luvumbulilo. Kange anoghile asovile uvuvaha vwa mwene, juno i Asia ni iisi jikufunya kwa mwene.”
28 Pawapikiniriti aga, waweriti na maya, wayanja kubotanga umatu, “Mkulu ndo Aritemi gwa Efesu!”
Ye vapulike agha, vakamemile ni ng'alasi kange vakajeghela, vakaati, “U Diana ughwa Efeso ghwe m'baha.”
29 Kaya yoseri imema fuju. Wawavamiya Gayu na Alisitariku, wenikaya wa Makedoniya, weni waweriti wanamwanja wayaguwi Paulu, watuga nawomberi mpaka kumdamu gwa madingu.
Ilikaja lioni likamemile ulunjughanjugha, navanhu vakakimbila mun'kate muvukumbi uvwa luneno. Vakavakolile vano vikyula avanine nhu Paulo, u Gayo nu Aristariko, vano vakahumile ku Makedonia.
30 Paulu mweni kafiriti kushigendera shipinga sha wantu awa, kumbiti waumini walii wamleweleriti.
U Paulo alyalondile kukwingila mukipugha kya vanhu, looli avavulanisivua vakan'sigha.
31 Wakulu wa sirikali wamonga wa aku kumkoa wa Asiya, wawaweriti maganja wakuwi, wamjegiriti Paulu ujumbi wankumluwa nakalitula muatali kwa kugenda kweni kumdamu gwa madingu.
Kange, avagoyo vamo ava kisina ava ku Asia vano valyale vamanyani va mwene vakantwalila imola inofu kungufu kukunsuma alike pikwingila muvukumbi uvwaluneno.
32 Shipindi shilii, wantu wamu waweriti pawabota hangu na wamonga vilii. Wantu wavuwa wavimaniti ndiri iwera ashi wawera aku.
Avanhu vamo valyale viiti ikiinu iiki na vange ilisio lila, ulyakuva ikipugha kya vanhu kilyahasiling'ine. Vinga vavanave navakakagwile nambe kuuti nakiki valisile palikimo.
33 Toziya Wayawudi wamtenda Alekizanda kalawiri kulongolu, wamu wa wantu mushipinga shilii walisheriti kuwera ndo mweni. Su, Alekizanda kawapungiriti wantu kwa liwoku pakafira kujiteteya paulongolu pa shipinga sha wantu walii.
Ava Yahudi vakantwala u Iskanda kunji kukipugha kya vanhu na pikum'bika pavulongolo pa vanhu. U iskanda akahumia ikidegho muluvok lwa mwene kuhumia uvwolesi ku vanhu.
34 Kumbiti pawavimaniti weri yomberi ndo Myawudi, woseri kwa liziwu limu washowangana, “Mkulu ndo Aritemi gwa Efesu!” Wendereya kushowangana showangana hangu kwa shipindi sha masaa mawili.
Looli yeva kagwiile kuuti umene mu Yahudi, vooni vakajeghela ku lisio limo munsiki ghwa lmasala ghavili, “U Diana ghwe m'baha ughwa va Efeso.”
35 Upeleru kalani gwa lushi kafawuliti kuwanyamaziya, kawagambira, “Wanalushi wa Efesu, kila muntu kavimana handa kaya ayi ya Efesu ndo mlolera gwa numba ya mlungu gwa shidala Aritemi na mlolera gwa shinyagu shilii shashiguwiti kulawa kumpindi.
Pa uluo umulembi ughwa likaja akanyamasia ikipugha, akaati, 'Umwe mwe vaghosi ava Efeso ghweveni Juno nakagwiile kuuti ilikaja lya Efeso juno ikolelela inyumba imbaha inyimike ijakufunyila ija Diana umbaha nikila ikihwani kino kikaghwile kuhuma kukyanya?
36 Kwahera yakaweza kulema shitwatira ashi. Hangu su, munyamali, namtenda shoseri pota hepera.
Kulola kuuti amasio agha naghangakagulike, tulondua kuuti tuve Kimmie kange namungavombaghe kyooni ikya ng'aning'ani.
37 Muwashema wantu awa panu tembera wayigilanga ndiri numba ya mlungu ama kumwigilanga mlungu gwetu gwa shidala.
Ulwakuva ulwakuva muvakemelile avanhu ava pa ndinde vano navaliasi ava nyumba imbaha inyimike ijakufunyila nambe navikum'beda u Nguluve ghwiitu un'dala.
38 Handa, Demetiriu na watenda lihengu wayaguwi wawera na masitaka gawu kuusu wantu awa, pana mahakama na wakulu wa mikoni, waweza kusitakiana aku.
Ku uluo, ndavule u Demetrio na mang'anyi vano valipalikimo nu mwene valinamavoko vwimila vwa munhu ghweni, indinde si dindulivue navasikari pevale. Pe valetue pavulongolo pa highi.
39 Handa pamuwera na visoweru vyamonga, vyaviwagaziya, muvijegi pashiyotera motu yapafiruwa.
Looli ndavule uve ungalonde kyekyoni kila ghusimilisa amasio aghange, ghivombua mukikalo ikya kyang'haani.
40 Toziya tuweza kusitakiwa kwa kujega ndewu kulawirana na vituku vya lelu. Ndewu ayi kwahera toziya ya nakaka na metusindi kulaviya toziya za nyanyi za ndewu ayi.”
Sa kyang'ani tuluvivi ulwakuhighua vwimila ulunjughanjugha vwimila ulwa kighono iki. Kusiila lumonga ulwakunangika isi, kange nakwande tuva ningufu isa kwolelela.
41 Pakatakuliti aga, kakumaliriti kuliwona.
Ye ajovile agha, akapalasinie ifipugha.
