Imbombo zya Atume 16
1 U Paulo pahinzile hu Derbe na hu Lystra; epo ahali ukijana umo yalyeteshe izu itawa yu Timotheo, ni Kijana aliyezaliwa na unyina ali Yahudi uise ali Giriki.
And he came to Derbe and Lystra; and behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewess, who was a believer; but his father was a Greek.
2 Abhantu bha Lystra nahu Ikonia bhahayanjile shinza.
A good report was given of him by the brethren in Lystra and Iconium.
3 U Paulo wanza asogole nawo, wamwega watahiili maana Ayahudi bhaaminyu huje uise wa Timotheo huje Giriki.
This man Paul wished to go with him: and he took him and circumcised him, on account of the Jews that were in those places: for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
4 Wabhasogolaga bhishiliye humiji bhabhalajizya huja bhazikhataje zyazisimbilwa natume hula hu Yerusalemu.
And as they went through the cities, they delivered to them the decrees that had been resolved on by the apostles and elders at Jerusalem, that they might keep them.
5 Amakanisa gakhala shinza wa bhantu bhahinji bhonjelela apendushe hwa Yesu.
Therefore, the churches were established in the faith, and they increased in number daily.
6 U Paulo nu wamwao bhabhala hu Filigia na hu Galatia, Umpepo wa Ngulubhi abhakhanile alumbilile izu hwijimbo lya hu Asia.
When they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, being forbidden by the Holy Spirit to preach the word in Asia,
7 Nabhapalamila hu Misia, bhahalinga abhale hu Bithinia, lelo Umpepo wa Yesu wabhakhana.
and had come to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia; and the Spirit did not permit them.
8 Shashila hu Misia bhabha hu Troa.
But having passed by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
9 Nusiku uPaulo walola embonesyo umuntu wa hu Makedonia abhakwizya aiga mwenzemutavwe ohu.”
And, during the night, a vision appeared to Paul. A certain man of Macedonia stood and besought him, saying: Come over to Macedonia and help us.
10 U Paulo nawalola embonesyo ezyo bhamanya huju Ungulubhi abhakwizizye huje bhabhale hu Makedonia, alumbilile izu lya Ngulubhi.
After he had seen the vision, we immediately endeavored to go into Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the gospel to them.
11 Tasogola afume hu Troa, tabhala hu Samothrake, shandao lwakwe tafiha hu Neapoli.
Therefore, setting sail from Troas, we came by a straight course to Samothracia, and, on the following day, to Neapolis,
12 Afume uhwo tafiha hu Filipi eya hu Makedonia, gwali muji gosi hu wilaya yabhatawalile Arumi uhwo takhiye hashe.
and thence to Philippi, which is the first city of that part of Macedonia, and a colony. We remained in that city some days:
13 Isiku elyelutuyo tahabhalile hwonze ye ndyango gwe muji tajendile idala elyahwisoho tagaga kabhanga tigapaga apapuutilw, tahakha pansi tayanga na bhashi bhamo bhabhahinzile uhwo.
and on the sabbath-day we went out of the city to the side of a river, where, as usual, was the house of prayer; and we sat down and spoke to the women who had come together.
14 Ushi umo itawa yu Lidia, yakazyaga amasukwa(usukwa), afumile hu Tiatira, atitejelezizye, Ungulubhi amwiguye umwoyo nahuzibhishe humwoyo zyaziyangwilwe nu Paulo.
And a certain woman, named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, who worshiped God, heard; whose heart the Lord opened to attend to the things that were spoken by Paul.
15 Nawoziwa uumwene na bha munyumba yakwe watilabha aje tikhale pakhaya yakwe atilambile tee.
And when she and her household had been immersed, she besought us, saying: If you judge me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and make it your home. And she con strained us.
16 Natabhalaga apuute, ulinouumo yali ne Mpepo embibhi ezyelaguzi takhomine nhwo, ulinduuyo apelaga efaida Ugosi, wakwe hulaguzi wakwe.
And it came to pass, that as we were going to the house of prayer, there met us a certain maid-servant that had a spirit of Python, who brought much gain to her masters, by giving responses.
17 Ushi unu alondozizye u Paulo naje ebha bhantu bha Ngulubhi ula ugosi yabhabhalumbilila amawe idala elye wokovu”.
She followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying: These men are the servants of the most High God, who show us the way of salvation.
18 Abhombile isho ensiku zyenyinji, lelo u Paulo avitilwe tee u Paulo pawagaluha hwisalo walidimila lila ipepo, “Waga awe wu mpepo embibhi epa mwunu usogole hwi tawa lya Yesu empepo embibhi yafuma.
And this she continued to do for many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit: I command you, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come out of her. And it came out that very hour.
19 Agosi bhakwe ulenduula bhabhakhata aPaulo nu Sila bhabhadenemula musokoni na aviongozi bhahenyaga.
And when her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they seized Paul and Silas, and dragged them into the market to the rulers.
20 Na bhafisya hwalonzi bhaga abhantu ebha Bhayahudi bhaleta ibwango munsi yetu.
And having brought them to the magistrates, they said: These men, who are Jews, do greatly trouble our city;
21 Bhamanyizya enongwa zyasentihwanziwa akhate nazifute neshi Arumi.”
and they teach customs which it is not lawful for us, who are Romans, to receive or to observe.
22 Ipuga lya bhantu bhabhakhata aPaulo nu Sila, alonzi bhabhasatula amenda gabho naje bhakhomwe ne nsanzo(bhashetwe)
And the multitude rose up together against them; and the magistrates stripped off their clothes, and gave command to beat them with rods.
23 Nabhashetwa nensanzo zye nyinji bhabhaponya mwijela na bhabhuule alinzi aje bhabhalinde shinza.
And when they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, and charged the jailer to keep them securely.
24 Bhaala alinzi nabhaposhela eamri, bhabhafunga aPaulo wusila ahati nyene bhabhapinya namanyoro mumanama.
And having received such a charge, he put them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.
25 Nu siku nyene aPaulo nu Sila bhapuuta natele eng'oma ezya hulumbe Ungulubhi ohu afungwe abhanje bhatejelezya,
And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sung a hymn to God; and the prisoners were listening to them.
26 Lyahafumila itensia lyayinzya ensi amandyango gigereza giguha na manyoro gafungwe gayembela.
And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bonds were loosed.
27 Olinzi wi Gereza wabhuha ahwenya eshi amandyango gu gereza gigushe wayeta wega ipanga wanzaje ahwibhole agagajibha afungwe bhonti bhaselenjile,
And the jailer, being aroused from sleep, and seeing the doors of the prison open, drew his sword, and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had fled.
28 U Paulo wakhoola hwizu igosi waga usahwibude ate tenti tihweli epa”.
But Paul called out with a loud voice, saying: Do yourself no harm, for we are all here.
29 Walabha amakhozyo walavya uhu ayetile wa yinje, wabhagwila aPaulo nu Sila,
Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and trembling, he fell down before Paul and Silas;
30 wabhafumya hwunzi yi gereza waga mwebha gosi embombe wili nanii enokoshe?”
and, having brought them out, he said: Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31 Bhabhuula bhaga mwitishe uYesu nawee ubhahwokoshe na bhantu bhonti bhabhali munyumba yaho.”
They replied: Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you and your house shall be saved.
32 Bhayanga izu lya Ngulubhi na bhantu bhakwe bhabhali munyumba yakwe,
And they spoke the word of the Lord to him, and to all that were in his house.
33 Ulinzi wi gereza wabhega nu siku lwulwo(wuwo), wabhozya mwabhavwaliye umwene na bhantu bhonti abha munyumba yakwe bhoziwa.
And he took them at that hour of the night, and washed the blood from their stripes; and he was immersed, himself and all his, immediately.
34 Wabhaleta akhaya yakwe wabhapeela ishalye. Wabhanoluseshelo na bhantu bhonti abha munyumba.
And he brought them into his house, and set food before them, and rejoiced, believing in God, with all his house.
35 Pasanya alonzi, bhatuma umuntu huje bhabhuule, ulinzi wi gereza abhefwe abhantu bhaala bhasogolaje”,
But when it was day, the magistrates sent the lictors, saying: Release those men.
36 Ulinzi wi gereza wabhuula uPaulo huje alonzi bhajile embefwe musogolaje mubhalaje amwenyu.”
And the jailer told these words to Paul: The magistrates have sent to release you. Now, therefore, come out, and go in peace.
37 U Paulo wabhabhuula huje batikhomile nativwalazye pabhantu tatili Bharumi nkatilonje eshi bhalwatefwe shisili ate seetifuma bhenze bhatifumye bhibho”.
But Paul said to them: Having publicly scourged us uncondemned, us who are Romans, they threw us into prison: and do they now put us out secretly? No, verily: but let them come and lead us out.
38 Ulinzi wabhabhuula alonzi enongwa zya Paulo nu Sila alonzi bhayeta ahwumvwe huje aPaulo nu Sila Bharumi.
And the lictors told these words to the magistrates: and they were alarmed when they heard that they were Romans;
39 Alonzi bhenza abhefwe na bhabhafumya bhabhalaabha huje bhepe munsi yabho.
and they came, and entreated them, and led them out, and requested them to depart from the city.
40 A Paulo nu Sila bhafuma mwigereza bhabhala hu khaya ya Lidia. U Paulo nabhabhalola abhamwabho bhabhagwizya umwoyo, pamade bhasogola bhepa munsi iyo.
And having come out of the prison, they went into the house of Lydia; and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
