Mabasa 21
1 Shure kwokuparadzana kwedu navo, takaenda kugungwa tikandokwira chikepe tikananga kuKosi. Zuva rakatevera takaenda kuRhodzi uye tichibva ikoko takaenda kuPatara.
And we separated from them and voyaged directly unto Ko the island, and the day after we came to Rodos, and from thence to Patara;
2 Takawana chikepe chaiyambuka chichienda kuFonisia, tikakwira machiri tikaenda.
and we found there a ship which was going to Punike, and we ascended into her and voyaged.
3 Takati taona Saipurasi takaipfuura nechezasi kwayo, tikaenda kuSiria. Takandoburuka chikepe paTire, paiburutsa chikepe chedu nhumbi dzacho.
And coming near Kypros the island, we left it on the left hand and came unto Syria, and thence came we to Tsur: for there was the ship to relieve from her burden.
4 Takati tawana vadzidzi ipapo, takagara navo kwamazuva manomwe. Vakakumbirisa Pauro kubudikidza noMweya kuti arege kuenda kuJerusarema.
And having found disciples there, we sojourned with them seven days. And these said daily unto Paulos in the Spirit, That he should not go unto Urishlem.
5 Asi nguva yedu yakati yapera, takabvapo tikaenderera mberi norwendo rwedu. Vadzidzi vose pamwe chete navakadzi vavo navana vakatiperekedza vakatisiya tava kunze kweguta, uye pamahombekombe ipapo takapfugama tikanyengetera.
And after those days we departed to go on the way. And they accompanied us, all of them, they and their wives and their children, till without the city, and kneeled upon their knees on the sea shore, and prayed. And we kissed one another,
6 Shure kwokuonekana kwedu, takabva taenda kundokwira chikepe, ivo vakadzokera kumusha kwavo.
and we ascended to the ship, and they returned to their homes.
7 Takapfuurira mberi norwendo rwedu tichibva kuTire tikandoburuka chikepe paToremai, patakakwazisana nehama tikagara zuva rimwe chete navo.
But we voyaged from Tsur, and came to Aku the city, and gave the salutation to the brethren who were there, and abode among them one day.
8 Zuva rakatevera takabvapo, tikandosvika kuKesaria tikandogara pamba pomuvhangeri Firipi, mumwe wavaya vanomwe.
And the day after we departed and came to Cesarea; and we entered and abode in the house of Philipos the preacher, he who was of the seven.
9 Akanga ana vanasikana vana vakanga vasati vawanikwa vaiprofita.
And he had four virgin daughters who prophesied.
10 Shure kwokugara kwedu ipapo kwamazuva akati kuti, muprofita ainzi Agabhusi akasvika achibva kuJudhea.
And when we had been there many days, there came down from Jihud a certain prophet whose name was Agabos.
11 Asvika kwatiri, akatora bhanhire raPauro, akabva azvisunga makumbo namaoko ake naro akati, “Mweya Mutsvene anoti, ‘Nenzira imwe chete iyoyi, vaJudha vokuJerusarema vachasunga muridzi webhanhire vagomuisa mumaoko eveDzimwe Ndudzi.’”
And he came in to us, and took the loins'-girdle of Paulos, and bound his own feet and his hands, and said, Thus saith the Spirit of Holiness, So the man the master of this girdle will the Jihudoyee bind in Urishlem; and they will deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.
12 Takati tanzwa izvi, isu navanhu voko takakumbirisa Pauro kuti arege kukwidza kuJerusarema.
And when we heard these words, we and the sons of the place entreated of him not to go unto Urishlem.
13 Ipapo Pauro akapindura akati, “Seiko muchichema uye muchirwadzisa mwoyo wangu? Ini ndakagadzirira kwete kusungwa kwoga, asi kufawo muJerusarema nokuda kwezita raIshe Jesu.”
THEN answered Paulos and said, What do you, weeping and bruising my heart? For not to be bound only am I prepared, but also to die in Urishlem, for the sake of the name of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.
14 Paakaramba kudziviswa, isu takamurega tikati, “Kuda kwaShe ngakuitwe.”
And when he would not be persuaded by us, we desisted, and said, The will of our Lord be done.
15 Shure kwaizvozvo takagadzirira tikakwidza kuJerusarema.
And after those days we prepared and went up to Urishlem.
16 Vamwe vadzidzi vokuKesaria vakatiperekedza vakatisvitsa kuimba yaMunasoni, uko kwataifanira kundogara. Akanga ari murume aibva kuSaipurasi uye ari mumwe wavadzidzi vokutanga.
And there went with us men, disciples, from Cesarea, who conducted with them a certain brother of the first disciples whose name was Mnason, and he was from Kypros, to receive us into his house.
17 Takati tasvika paJerusarema, hama dzakatigamuchira nomufaro.
And when we were come to Urishlem, the brethren received us joyfully.
18 Zuva rakatevera Pauro nesu tose takaenda kundoona Jakobho, uye vakuru vose vaivapo.
And the day following we entered with Paulos to Jakub, while all the presbyters were with him.
19 Pauro akavakwazisa uye akanyatsovarondedzera zvakanga zvaitwa naMwari pakati pavaHedheni kubudikidza noushumiri hwake.
And we gave them salutation. And Paulos recounted to them in order what Aloha had done among the Gentiles by his ministry.
20 Vakati vanzwa izvi, vakarumbidza Mwari. Ipapo vakati kuna Pauro, “Unoona, hama, kune zviuru nezviuru zvavaJudha vakatenda, uye vose zvavo vanoshingairira murayiro.
And when they heard, they glorified Aloha. And they said to him, Thou seest, our brother, how many myriads there are in Jihud who believe, and all of them are zealous for the law.
21 Vakaudzwa kuti iwe unodzidzisa vaJudha vose vagere pakati peveDzimwe Ndudzi kuti vatsauke kubva kuna Mozisi, uchivaudza kuti varege kudzingisa vana vavo kana kuchengeta tsika dzedu.
But it hath been said to them of thee, that thou teachest all the Jihudoyee who are among the Gentiles to remove from Musha; telling them that they should not circumcise their sons, nor walk in the customs of the law.
22 Zvino toita seiko? Vachanzwa zvirokwazvo kuti wauya,
On this account, when they hear that thou art come hither, do that which we tell thee.
23 saka iwe chiita zvatinokuudza zvino. Tina varume vana pano vakaita mhiko.
We have four men who have a vow to be purified.
24 Tora varume ava, ubatane navo pakuzvinatsa kwavo, uye iwe ugovaripira kuti vaveurwe misoro yavo. Ipapo munhu wose achaziva kuti hapana chokwadi pane zviri kurehwa pamusoro pako, asi kuti iwe pachako unoteerera murayiro.
Take them, and go, purify with them, and lay out upon them the expenses, that they may shave their heads; and it will be known to every man that what hath been said against thee is false, and that thou fulfillest and keepest the law.
25 Kana vari vatendi vokune veDzimwe Ndudzi, takavanyorera pane zvatakatema kuti varege kudya zvakabayirwa kuzvifananidzo, uye ropa, nenyama yemhuka dzakadzipwa uye varege upombwe.”
Concerning those of the Gentiles who believe, we wrote that they should keep themselves from sacrifices, and from fornication, and from the strangled, and from blood.
26 Zuva rakatevera Pauro akatora varume vaya uye akazvinatsa pamwe chete navo. Ipapo akaenda kutemberi kundozivisa kupera kwamazuva okuzvinatsa uye kuti chipiriso chaizoitirwa mumwe nomumwe wavo rinhi.
Then Paul took those men the day after, and was purified with them. And he entered and went into the temple, making known to them the fulfillment of the days of the purification, so that an oblation might be offered for each man of them.
27 Mazuva manomwe akati oda kupera, vamwe vaJudha vaibva kuEzhia vakaona Pauro patemberi. Vakamutsa vanhu vazhinji uye vakamubata,
And when the seventh day was come the Jihudoyee who were from Asia saw him in the temple, and stirred up against him all the people. And they lifted their hands against him,
28 vachishevedzera vachiti, “Varume veIsraeri, tibatsirei! Uyu ndiye murume anodzidzisa vanhu kwose kwose zvinopesana navanhu vokwedu, murayiro wedu uye nenzvimbo ino. Zvisati zviri izvozvo zvoga, akapinza vaGiriki muruvanze rwetemberi akasvibisa nzvimbo iyi tsvene.”
crying out, and saying, Men, sons of Israel, help! This is the man who contrary to our people teacheth every where, and contrary to the law, and against this place. And also Aramoyee hath he brought into the temple, and profaned this holy place.
29 (Nokuti vakanga vamboona Tirofimasi muEfeso ari muguta pamwe chete naPauro vakafunga kuti Pauro akanga apinda naye mutemberi.)
For they had before seen with him Trophimus the Ephesian in the city, and supposed that with Paulos he had entered the temple.
30 Guta rose rakamutswa, uye vanhu vakauya vachimhanya vachibva kumativi ose. Vakabata Pauro, vakamukwevera kunze kwetemberi, pakarepo masuo akazarirwa.
And the whole city was commoved, and all the people assembled, and they laid hold of Paulos, and dragged him without from the temple; and instantly the gates were shut.
31 Pavakanga vachiedza kumuuraya, shoko rakasvika kumukuru wehondo yeuto ravaRoma richiti guta rose reJerusarema rakanga raita bope.
And while the multitude sought to kill him, the tribune of the cohort heard that the whole city was agitated.
32 Pakarepo akatora mamwe machinda navarwi akamhanyira kuvanhu. Vaiti vebongozozo vakati vachiona mukuru wamauto ana varwi vake, vakabva varega kurova Pauro.
And forthwith took he a centurion and many soldiers and ran upon them; and when they saw the tribune and the soldiers, they desisted from beating Paulos.
33 Mukuru wamauto akauya akasunga Pauro uye akarayira kuti asungwe nengetani mbiri. Ipapo akamubvunza kuti akanga ari ani uye kuti akanga aitei.
And the tribune drew near and took him, and commanded them to bind him with two chains. And he asked concerning him who (he was), and what he had done?
34 Vamwe vaiva pakati pavanhu vazhinji ava vakadanidzira, mumwe ichi, mumwe icho, uye sezvo mukuru wamauto akanga asingagoni kusvika pachokwadi chenyaya nokuda kwebope, akarayira kuti Pauro aiswe kudzimba dzavarwi.
And men from the crowd cried against him variously, and because of their crying he was not able to know what was the truth; and he commanded that they should lead him to the fortress.
35 Pauro akati asvika pamatanho, bongozozo ravanhu rakanga rakurisa zvokuti akaita zvokutotakurwa navarwi.
And as Paulos came to the stairs the soldiers carried him, on account of the violence of the people:
36 Vanhu vazhinji vaimutevera vakaramba vachidanidzira vachiti, “Ngaaurayiwe!”
for after him was much people; and they cried, and said, Away with him!
37 Varwi pavakanga vava kuda kupinza Pauro mudzimba dzavarwi, akakumbira mukuru wavarwi akati, “Ndingataurawo nemi here?” Iye akati, “Unotaura chiGiriki here?
And as they came to enter into the fortress, Paulos himself said to the tribune, May I be permitted to speak to the people?
38 Ko, hauzi uya muIjipita akamutsa bope, akatungamirira zviuru zvina zvavapanduki mugwenga nguva dzakapfuura here?”
But he said to him, Javanith knowest thou? Art thou not that Metsroya who before these days stirred up and led forth into the waste four thousand men workers of evils?
39 Pauro akapindura akati, “Ini ndiri muJudha anobva kuTasasi kuSirisia, munhu weguta rakakurumbira. Ndapota regai nditaure kuvanhu.”
Paulos said to him, I am a man a Jihudoya from Tarsos of Cilicia, an illustrious city in which I was born: I pray you permit me to speak to the people.
40 Akati apiwa mvumo nomukuru wavarwi, Pauro akamira pamatanho akaninira vanhu noruoko rwake. Uye vakati vanyarara vose, akati kwavari nechiHebheru:
And when he had permitted him, Paulos stood upon the stairs, and signed to them with his hand; and when they had ceased, he spoke to them in Hebrew, and said to them,
