Imbombo 11
1 Avasung'ua navanyalukolo Valarie vano valyale ukuo ku Yudea valyapulike kuuti avapanji vupili ilisio ilya Nguluve.
And the apostles and the brethren who were in Judaea heard that the nations also had received the word of God;
2 U Petro ye isile ukuo ku Yerusalemu, ikipugha kila ikya vanhu vanovalyahinjilue vakatengula kukum'beda, vakajova,
and when Peter went up to Jerusalem, they of the circumcision contended with him,
3 “Ukolile na vanhu vano navahinjilue nakulia naveve!”
saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised and hast eaten with them.
4 Looli u Petro alyatenguile kujova ikituko kind kilimunkate; akati,
But Peter began and set forth [the matter] to them in order, saying,
5 “NIlyale nikufunya mulikaja ilya Yafa, nikasaghile inyisaghilo isakyombo kikwika pasi ndavule umwenda u n'kome ghukwika kuhuma kukyanya imbaleimbale sake sooni ine. Kikika kulyune.
I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in an ecstasy I saw a vision, a certain vessel descending like a great sheet, let down by four corners out of heaven, and it came even to me:
6 Nilyakilolile nakusagha pa mwene. NikafyaghilaNikafyaghila ifidimua ifinyamaghulu ghane finofikukala mu iisi, nifidimua ifya mulisoli, nifidimua fino fikwafula nifijuni ifyakuvulanga.
on which having fixed mine eyes, I considered, and saw the quadrupeds of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the fowls of the heaven.
7 nge nilyapulike ilisio lijova nuune, “Sisimuka, Petrol, hinja ulie!”
And I heard also a voice saying to me, Rise up, Peter, slay and eat.
8 Nikajova, “Naluliinala, Mutwa, mumulomo ghwango nakighelile kukwingila ikinu kye kyoni kill kind na kyimike nambe kivivi”
And I said, In no wise, Lord, for common or unclean has never entered into my mouth.
9 Loli ilisio likamula kange kuhuma kukyanya, kila kino uNguluve alyapulisie kuuti kinofu, nungakikemelaghe vulamafu,
And a voice answered the second time out of heaven, What God has cleansed, do not thou make common.
10 Ulululyahumile katatu, kange Kira kiinu kikatolilue kukyanya.
And this took place thrice, and again all was drawn up into heaven;
11 Lolagha, unsiki ghughuo avanhu vatatu vimile pavulongolo pa nyumba jino tuliale; vomolivue kuhuma ku Kaisaria kukwisa kulyune.
and lo, immediately three men were at the house in which I was, sent to me from Caesarea.
12 U Mhepo akambulile kuluta nave, nasingahwananaghe nave. Ava ghosi ntanda vakaluta palikimo nuune tukaluta munyumba jamunhu jumo.
And the Spirit said to me to go with them, nothing doubting. And there went with me these six brethren also, and we entered into the house of the man,
13 Alyatuvulile ndavule alya mbwene unyamola imile munkate munyumba jamwene ijova, “Unyomole ku Yafa nikantole u Simoni juno ilitavua lya mwene ilinge ghwe Petro.
and he related to us how he had seen the angel in his house, standing and saying [to him], Send [men] to Joppa and fetch Simon, who is surnamed Peter,
14 Ilijova imola mulyuve mu uluo kuuti kuvanguka uve munyumba jako Joni.”
who shall speak words to thee whereby thou shalt be saved, thou and all thy house.
15 Pe alyatenguile kujova navope, u Mhepo Mwimike akisa kuvanave ndavule ye isile pa vwasio.
And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them even as upon us also at the beginning.
16 Nikumbuka amasio gha Mutwa ghanoalyajovile, u Yohana alyofuighe namalenga; looli mukwofughua nu Mhepo u Mwimike.”
And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, John baptised with water, but ye shall be baptised with [the] Holy Spirit.
17 Ndavule u Nguluve ahumisie uluvonolo ndavule silo alyatupelile usue panoramic tulitike kwa Mutwa Yesu kilisite, une nene veni, kuuti sighwesia kukun'kana u Nguluve?
If then God has given them the same gift as also to us when we had believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who indeed was I to be able to forbid God?
18 Ye vapulike amasio agha, navakagomwisie, looli vakamongisie u Nguluve na kuuti, “U Nguluve ahumisie vwumila kange muvapanji”
And when they heard these things they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then indeed God has to the nations also granted repentance to life.
19 Kange avitiki vino valyale mu mumuko sino silyatengulile mu vufue vya Stephano valyapalasine kuhuma ku Yerusalemu -avitiki ava valyalutile kuvutali, umpaka kuvusililo ku Foinike, Kipro naku Antiokia. Valyavavulile imola kuuti u Yesu jujuo mwene kuva Yahudi nambe kwa munhu ghweni.
They then who had been scattered abroad through the tribulation that took place on the occasion of Stephen, passed through [the country] to Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to no one but to Jews alone.
20 Looli avanhu vamo kuhuma ku kipro na ku Krene, valisile ku Antiokia nakujova nava Yunani nakumpulisia u Yesu.
But there were certain of them, Cyprians and Cyrenians, who entering into Antioch spoke to the Greeks also, announcing the glad tidings of the Lord Jesus.
21 Nuluvoko ulwa Mutwa tulyale palikimo nu mwene, navanhu vinga valyiitike nakusyentukila u Mutwa.
And [the] Lord's hand was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.
22 Imola sivanave sikavafikile mu mbughulutu munyumba ija ku Yerusalemu: navakamwomwile u Barnaba alute mpaka kuvusililo uvwa Antiokia.
And the report concerning them reached the ears of the assembly which was in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go through as far as Antioch:
23 Ye isile nakukivona ikipelua ikya Nguluve alyahovwike; kange akavamemia ingufu munumbula save kujigha nu Mutua kumojo aghavanave.
who, having arrived and seeing the grace of God, rejoiced, and exhorted all with purpose of heart to abide with the Lord;
24 Ulwakuva alyale munhu nofu kange amemesivue nu Mhepo Mwimike nu lwitiko ulwa vanhu vinga vakongelela mwa Mutwa.
for he was a good man and full of [the] Holy Spirit and of faith; and a large crowd [of people] were added to the Lord.
25 Pa uluo u Barnaba akalutile ku Tarso kukumwagha u Sauli.
And he went away to Tarsus to seek out Saul.
26 Ye amwaghile akantwala ku Antiokia. Lukale amaka ghoni valyakong'anile munyumba ja kufunyila nakuvavulanisia avanhu vinga. Navavulanesivua vakatambulivua vakilisite ulwa kwasia ukuo ku Antiokia.
And having found [him], he brought him to Antioch. And so it was with them that for a whole year they were gathered together in the assembly and taught a large crowd: and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
27 Mufighono ifi avavili vakika kuhuma ku Yerusalemu umpaka ku Antiokia.
Now in these days prophets went down from Jerusalem to Antioch;
28 Jumonga muvanave ghwe Agabo lyelitavua lya mwene, akiima akasonua nu Mhepo kuuti injala ng'ali jihumila mu iisi joni. Ulu lulyahumile munsiki ughwa fighono ifya Klaudio.
and one from among them, by name Agabus, rose up and signified by the Spirit that there was going to be a great famine over all the inhabited earth, which also came to pass under Claudius.
29 Lino, vavulanesivua, ndavule jumo juno apatile, valyalamwile kutwaala inangilo kuvanyalukolo vano valikuvu Yahudi.
And they determined, according as any one of the disciples was well off, each of them to send to the brethren who dwelt in Judaea, to minister [to them];
30 Valyavombile anala; Vakomola indalama muluvoko ulwa Barnaba nu Sauli.
which also they did, sending it to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
