Mabasa 14
1 PaIkoniamu Pauro naBhanabhasi vakasvikopinda musinagoge ravaJudha sezvavaisiita nguva dzose. Imomo vakataura zvinobata mwoyo kwazvo zvokuti vaJudha vazhinji neveDzimwe Ndudzi vakatenda.
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 Asi vaJudha vakaramba kutenda vakamutsa mwoyo yeveDzimwe Ndudzi uye vakavakanganisa pfungwa dzavo kuti vavenge hama.
But Jihudoyee, of those who were not persuaded, excited the Gentiles to ill-treat the brethren.
3 Saka Pauro naBhanabhasi vakapedza nguva refu varipo, vachitaura zvaIshe vasingatyi, iye akasimbisa shoko renyasha dzake nokuvagonesa kuita zviratidzo nezvishamiso.
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 Vanhu vomuguta vakapesana; vamwe vakatsigira vaJudha, vamwewo vakatsigira vapostori.
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 VeDzimwe Ndudzi navaJudha, pamwe chete navatungamiri vavo vakarangana kuvaitira zvakaipa nokuvataka namabwe.
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 Asi vakazviziva vakabva vatizira kuRistira neDhebhe maguta avaRikonia nokudunhu rose rakanga rakapoteredza,
And when they knew, they passed away, and escaped to the cities of Lykania, Lystra, and Derbe, and the villages which surround them,
7 uko kwavakaramba vachiparidza vhangeri.
and there evangelized.
8 MuRistira maigara mumwe murume akanga ari mhetamakumbo, akanga ari chirema kubva pakuberekwa kwake uye akanga asina kumbofamba.
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 Akateerera Pauro paakanga achitaura. Pauro akamutarisisa, akaona kuti akanga ano kutenda kuti angaporeswa
This heard Paulos discourse. And when Paulos saw him, and knew that there was faith in him to be saved,
10 akadanidzira akati, “Simuka netsoka dzako!” Ipapo, murume akakwakuka akatanga kufamba.
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 Vazhinji vakati vaona zvakanga zvaitwa naPauro, vakadanidzira norurimi rwechiRikonia vachiti, “Vamwari vaburuka kwatiri muchimiro chavanhu!”
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 Bhanabhasi vakamutumidza kuti Zeusi, uye Pauro vakamutumidza kuti Herimesi nokuti ndiye aiva mutauri mukuru.
And they named Bar Naba, lord of the gods; and Paulos, Hermis, because he was foremost in discourse.
13 Muprista waZeusi aiva netemberi yake yakanga iri kunze kweguta, akauya nehando namaruva kumasuo eguta nokuti iye navanhu vazhinji vaida kupa zvibayiro kwavari.
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 Asi vapostori Bhanabhasi naPauro vakati vazvinzwa, vakabvarura nguo dzavo vakamhanyira mukati moruzhinji, vakadanidzira vachiti,
But Bar Naba and Paulos, when they heard, rent their garments, and sprang up, and came out to the crowd. And they cried,
15 “Varume, munoitireiko izvi? Isuwo tiri vanhu semi, vanhuwo zvavo semi. Tinokuparidzirai mashoko akanaka, tichikuudzai kuti mubve pazvinhu izvi zvisina maturo mudzokere kuna Mwari mupenyu, akaita denga nenyika negungwa nezvinhu zvose zviri mukati mazvo.
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 Panguva dzakapfuura, akarega hake ndudzi dzose dzichifamba nenzira dzadzo.
who in former generations left all nations to walk in ways of their own;
17 Asi haana kusiya pasina zvingamupupurira: Akakuitirai tsitsi nokukupai mvura inobva kudenga nezvirimwa nenguva yazvo; akakupai zvokudya zvakawanda uye akazadza mwoyo yenyu nomufaro.”
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 Kunyange namashoko iwaya, zvakanga zvakaoma chose kuti vadzivise vanhu vazhinji ava kuti varege kuvabayira.
And when these they had said, they scarcely restrained the people that some one should not sacrifice to them.
19 Ipapo vamwe vaJudha vaibva kuAndioki nokuIkoniamu vakauya vakasvikopindura mwoyo yavanhu vazhinji ava. Vakataka Pauro namabwe ndokumuzvuzvurudzira kunze kweguta, vachifunga kuti afa.
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 Asi shure kwokunge vadzidzi vaungana vakamukomba, akamuka akadzokera muguta zvakare. Zuva rakatevera akaenda naBhanabhasi kuDhebhe.
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 Vakaparidza mashoko akanaka muguta iroro vakawana vadzidzi vazhinji kwazvo. Ipapo vakadzokera kuRistira, Ikoniamu nokuAndioki,
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 vachisimbisa vadzidzi nokuvakurudzira kuti varambe vari pakutenda. Vakati, “Tinofanira kutambudzika kuti tipinde muumambo hwaMwari.”
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 Pauro naBhanabhasi vakagadza vatungamiri mukereke imwe neimwe uye nokunyengetera nokutsanya, vakavakumikidza kuna She, uyo wavaivimba naye.
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 Shure kwokupinda kwavo nomuPisidhia, vakasvika muPamufiria,
And when they had gone through the country of Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia,
25 uye vakati vaparidza shoko muPega, vakadzika vakaenda kuAtaria.
and when they had preached in the city Perga the word of the Lord, they went down to Atalia,
26 Kubva paAtaria vakakwira chikepe vakadzokera kuAndioki, kuya kwavakanga vakumikidzwa kunyasha dzaMwari pabasa ravakanga vapedza zvino.
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 Vakati vasvika ikoko, vakaunganidza kereke pamwe chete vakavarondedzera zvose zvakanga zvaitwa naMwari kubudikidza navo uye kuti akanga avazarurira sei mukova wokutenda kune veDzimwe Ndudzi.
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 Uye vakagara navadzidzi ipapo kwenguva refu.
And much time were they there with the disciples.
