Matendu 20
1 Payiperiti ndewu ilii Paulu kawashemiti pamwera waumini walii, kawagambira visoweru vya kawayupa moyu. Shakapanu kawagambira kwahere, kagenda Makedoniya.
Now, after the tumult was ceased, Paul, calling the disciples to him: and embracing them, departed to go into Macedonia.
2 Kapitiriti Seemu zya isi zilii kankuwayupa wantu moyu kwa visoweru vitangala. Shakapanu kasokiti Akaya.
And going through those parts, and having exhorted them with much discourse, he came into Greece.
3 Kweni katamiti kwa myezi mitatu. Pakaweriti kankulitanda kugenda Siriya, kayambuliti handa Wayawudi waweriti wankumtendera mpangu mdoda, hangu kaamuwiti kuwuya kwa kupitira Makedoniya
And when he had continued there three months, as an ambush was laid for him by the Jews, when he was about to embark for Syria, he thought it advisable to return by Macedonia.
4 Sopata, mwana gwa Piru, kulawa Beroya, wagenditi pamwera nayomberi, viraa Alisitariku na Sekundi kulawa Tesaloniki, Gayu kulawa Deribi, Timotewu, Tukiku na Tirofimu, kulawa mkowa gwa Asiya, na Timotewu
And Sopater, the Berean, accompanied him as far as Asia; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius, of Derbe, and Timothy: and of the Asiatics, Tychicus and Trophimus.
5 Awa watulonguliti na kutuhepera Trowa kulii.
These, going before, staid for us at Troas.
6 Tukweniti meli kulawa Filipi payipititi sikukuwi ya Mabumunda gankali kulekera simika, na pa mashaka mhanu shakapanu tuliwoniti pamwera Trowa kulii. Aku tulikaliti kwa shipindi sha lijuma limu.
And we set sail from Philippi, after the days of unleavened bread, and came to them at Troas in five days, where we continued seven days.
7 Jumamosi pashimii tuliwoniti tumegi libumunda. Toziya Paulu kafiriti kuwuka shirawu yakuwi, kawabweliriti wantu na kwendeleya kuyowera nawomberi mpaka pashiru pa ligonu.
And on the first day of the week, when the disciples met together to break bread, Paul, being about to depart on the morrow, discoursed to them, and continued his speech until midnight.
8 Vikoloboyi vivuwa viweriti viyaka mmpindi mushindambi Mshumba pawaweriti wankuliwona.
And there were many lamps in the upper room, in which we were assembled;
9 Mndemba yumu litawu lyakuwi Eutuku kaweriti kalivaga palidilisha shipindi Paulu pakaweriti kankwendereya kubwera, Eutuku kanjiti kusizira shididini shididini mpaka mbota zimpata, kapatuka pasi kulawa mgolofa ya tatu. Wamlopoziya kahowiti kala.
and a certain young man, whose name was Eutychus, sitting in a window, fell into a profound sleep: and as Paul continued his discourse a long time, he was so overpowered with sleep that he fell down from the third story, and was taken up dead.
10 Kumbiti Paulu kasulukiti pasi, kasuntamala, kamkisikira na kulonga “Namwina lyoga mana kwana ukomu wankali mngati mwakuwi.”
And Paul went down, and fell upon him, and taking him in his arms, said, Do not make any disturbance, for his life is in him.
11 Shakapanu kakwena kayi mligolofa, kalimega libumunda, kaliya. Kendeleyiti kubwera kwa shipindi shivuwa mpaka mandawira putiputi, shakapanu kawuka.
And going up again, and having broken bread, and eaten, he conversed a considerable time, even till break of day, and so departed.
12 Wantu walii wamtoliti mndemba ulii ukaya pakiwa mkomu nakamu. Wapata shinyamaliru shikulu.
And they brought the youth alive, and were not a little comforted.
13 Twenga tukweniti meli tulonguliriti kugenda Asu kweni twangamtoliti Paulu. Katugambiriti tutendi ntambu ayi, mana kafiriti kwiza aku kwa kupitira isi iyuma.
But we went before into the ship, and sailed to Assos, where we are to take up Paul, for so he had appointed, choosing himself to go on foot.
14 Shipindi pakatuwoniti Asu kulii, tumkweniziya mmeli, tugenda Mituleni.
And as soon as he joined us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene,
15 Kulawa aku tugenditi tusoka kiu shirawu yakuwi. Lishaka lya pili, tusulusiyiti nanga Samu na shirawu yakuwi tusokiti Miletu.
And sailing thence, we came the next day over against Chios; and the day following, we touched at Samos, and having staid at Trogyllium, we came the day after to Miletus.
16 Paulu kaweriti kafira kwendeleya na mwanja kwa meli pota kuwuyira Efesu su nakakawalira nentu aku Asiya. Kaweriti na kanongola ya kusoka Yerusalemu kwa sikukuwi ya Pentekosti handa iwezikana.
For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, that he might not spend any time in Asia; for he earnestly endeavored, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.
17 Kulawa Miletu Paulu katumiti ujumbi Efesu, kwa wazewi wa shipinga sha yawamjimira Yesu waliwoni nayomberi.
But, sending to Ephesus, from Miletus, he called thither the elders of the congregation.
18 Pawawuyiti kwakuwi, kawagambiriti, “Muvimana ntambu yandamiti na mwenga pashiru poseri kwanjira mulishaka lilii lya kwanja pansokiti Asiya.
And when they were come to him, he said to them, You know how I have been conversant among you all the time, from the first day in which I entered into Asia,
19 Muvimana ntambu yanumtenderiti Mtuwa kwa unanaga woseri, kwa masozi na maholu gambatiti kulawirana na mipangu ya ufyangu ya Wayawudi.
serving the Lord, with all humility, and with tears, and trials which befell me by the ambushes of the Jews:
20 Muvimana handa hapeni nzindi ata shididini kuwabwelera paweru na mkaya mwamwennga na kuwafundeni shoseri shakuwatangitileni.
and how I have suppressed nothing that was advantageous, not neglecting to announce to you, and to teach you publicly and privately;
21 Nuwaberiziya mwawoseri Wayawudi, viraa na wantu yawawera ndiri Wayawudi wamgalambukiri Mlungu na kuwera na njimiru mu Mtuwa gwetu Yesu.
testifying both to the Jews and Greeks, reformation with respect to God, and faith with respect to our Lord Jesus Christ.
22 Na vinu, mumpikinireni! Neni, payiwera nankumjimira Rohu, nunkugenda Yerusalemu pota kuvimana yagafira kumpata aku.
And now, behold, I am going to Jerusalem, bound by the Spirit, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
23 Shanushimana hera ndo handa Rohu Mnanagala kankunanguziya pakati pa kila lushi handa shifungu na ntabiku ndo vyanguhepera.
except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me.
24 Kumbiti, nankuukwisa ukomu wangu kuwera shintu nentu kwaneni mladi hera malili untumintumi wangu na lihengu lilii lyakanupiti Mtuwa Yesu nulitendi, yani nankuziyi Shisoweru Shiwagira sha manemu ga Mlungu.
But I make no account of any of these things, nor do I regard even life itself; so that I may but joyfully finish my course, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, even to testify the good news of the favor of God.
25 “Mbita muwamu mweni woseri pabwera ufalumi wa Mlungu. Na vinu, nuvimana kwahera ata yumu gwenu hakamoni kayi.
And now, behold, I know that you all, with whom I have conversed, proclaiming the kingdom of God, shall not see my face any more.
26 Hangu, leru ayi nankuwalanguziya nakamu handa payilawira kahowa yumu gwenu, neni nahera lawama yoseri.
Wherefore, I testify to you this day, that I am clear from the blood of all men.
27 Toziya hapeni nzindi ata padidini kuwabwelerani nfiru yoseri ya Mlungu.
For I have not declined to declare to you all the counsel of God.
28 Mulikali weri maweni, mshiloleri shipinga shilii sheni Rohu Mnanagala kawatula mwenga muweri walelwa wakuwi. Mushiloli shipinga sha wantu yawamjimira Yesu, Mlungu yakashihemeriti kwa mwazi gwa mwana gwakuwi.
Therefore, take heed to yourselves, and to the whole flock over which the Holy Spirit has constituted you overseers; to feed the congregation of the Lord, which he has redeemed with his own blood.
29 Nuvimana handa pambuka kala neni wamaminyi wakalipa hawawingilirani, na hapeni waweri na lusungu kwa shipinga ashi.
For I know this, that after my departure, grievous wolves will enter in among you, having no mercy on the flock.
30 Ata kulawa muwamu mwenu hawalawili wantu weni hantakuli vitwatira vya kupyota su kuwahowiziya wantu na kuwatenda wawafati womberi hera.
Yes, from among your own selves men shall arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
31 Hangu muweri masu pamlihola handa kwa shipindi sha vinja vitatu, pashiru na paliwala ndoka ndiri kumubera kila yumu gwenu kwa masozi.
Watch, therefore, remembering that for the space of three years, I ceased not to warn every one, night and day, with tears.
32 “Vinu nankuwatula mumawoku ga Mlungu, kwa shisoweru sha manemu gakuwi, ndosheni shiweza kuwanyawa mwenga na kuwapanana uhala pamuhera nawomberi woseri yawapungitwi.
And now, brethren, I recommend you to God, and to the word of his favor, who is able to edify you, and to give you an inheritance among all that are sanctified.
33 Neni nfirandiri ata mala yimu shuma, wala zaabu, wala nguwu za muntu yoseri.
I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel.
34 Muvimana maweni handa ntenda lihengu kwa mawoku gangu namweni su mbati shakuwatanga na sha namweni.
Yes, you yourselves know, that these hands ministered to my necessities, and to those that were with me.
35 Namweri nankuwayupani mashaka goseri mfanu handa kwa kutenda lihengu shiasi ashi tufiruwa kuwatanga walii wahera likakala patulihola visoweru vya Mtuwa Yesu mweni, ‘Mbaka nentu kulavia kuliku kuyanga.’”
I have showed you all things; how, that thus laboring, you ought to assist the infirm, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is much happier to give than to receive.
36 Pa katakuliti kala aga, Paulu kasuntamaliti pamuhera nawomberi woseri, kamluwa Mlungu.
And having said these things, he kneeled down and prayed with them all.
37 Woseri waweriti wankulira, na kumgambira Paulu kwahere kwa kumkisikira na kumunonera.
And there was great lamentation among them all: and falling upon Paul's neck, they kissed him;
38 Shawaweriti na maholu nashu nentu shiweriti showeru shakashitakuliti handa hapeni wamoni kayi. Su, wampeleka mpaka kumeli.
especially grieving for that word which he spoke, that they should see his face no more. And they conducted him to the ship.
