Imbombo 20
1 Ye Sisile injughanjugha, uPaulo akavakemelile avavulanisivua na kuva kangasia inumbula.
And after the ceasing of the tumult, Paul having called near the disciples, and having embraced [them], went forth to go on to Macedonia;
2 Kange akavalagha na kuvuka kuluta ku Makedonia. Umwene ye akilile ku kisina ikio alyale ikuvakangasia inumbula avitiki, pe akingila ku Yunani.
and having gone through those parts, and having exhorted them with many words, he came to Greece;
3 Pa uluo umweene kuuti akale pala kunsiki ghwa mesi gha tatu, ikikosi kikavombilue kwakwa mwene nava Yahudi alyale pipi ku kyula kuku sila ija nyaja kuluta ku Shamu, pe akam'bula kugomoka kukila ku Makidonia.
and having continued three months—a counsel of the Jews having been against him—being about to set forth to Syria, there came [to him] a resolution of returning through Macedonia.
4 Vano valyale kiinu kimono nu mwene kuluta ku Asia valyale u Sopatro, umwana ghwa Pirho kuhuma ku Berea; u Aristario nu Sekundo, vooni kuhuma kuvitiki ava ku Thesalonike; u Gayo ughwa Derby; u Timotheo; Tikiko nu trofimo kuhuma ku Asia.
And there were accompanying him to Asia, Sopater of Pyrrhus from Berea, and of Thessalonians Aristarchus and Secundus, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheus, and of Asians Tychicus and Trophimus;
5 Looli avanhu valonguile pe valiale vikutughula ku Throa.
these, having gone before, remained for us in Troas,
6 Musila ija nyanja kuhuma ku Filipi mu fighono ifyaifya makate ghano naghakabikilue ikilule, mu fighono fihano tukavafikile ukuo ku Troa. Tulikalile ikuo mufighono ifya budika lubale.
and we sailed, after the days of the Unleavened [Bread], from Philippi, and came to them to Troas in five days, where we abided seven days.
7 Ikighono ikya kwanda ikya nyambaha, yetukong'anile palikimo kumenyula un'kate, u Paulo akajovile navitiki.
And on the first [day] of the weeks, the disciples having been gathered together to break bread, Paul was discoursing to them, about to depart on the next day, he was also continuing the discourse until midnight,
8 Akale ijova kuvuka pakilavo, pe akaghendelela kujova mukilo imbaha. Pe kulyale italaitala nyinga kukyimba ikya kukyanya kino tukakong'anile palikimo.
and there were many lamps in the upper chamber where they were gathered together,
9 Mulidilisha akikalile un'soleka jumo juno ilitavua lya mwene Utiko, juno kale ni tuulu imbaha. Kange u Paulo alyale idalikila mu nsiki u n'tali, unsoleka uju, akaghonelile, pe akaghua pasi kuhuma ku gholofa ija vutatu vakamwagha afuile.
and there a certain youth was sitting, by name Eutychus, on the window—being borne down by a deep sleep, Paul discoursing long—he having sunk down from the sleep, fell down from the third story, and was lifted up dead.
10 Looli u Paulo akika pasi, akagholosia jujuo mwene, akan'kola kange akaati. Kange akaati, “Namungakatalaghe, ulwakuva mwumi.”
And Paul, having gone down, fell on him, and having embraced [him], said, “Make no tumult, for his life is in him”;
11 Kange pe akatogha ku gholofa na kumenyula un'kate, pe akalia. Ye ajovile navene kunsiki untali hadi palwakilo, pe akavuka.
and having come up, and having broken bread, and having tasted, for a long time also having talked—until daylight, so he went forth,
12 Vakantwala un'soleka jula alyale mwumi pe vakatengaana fiijo.
and they brought up the boy alive, and were comforted in no ordinary measure.
13 Usue jusue tukalongwile kuvulongolo pa Paulo ni meli nakuluta ku Aso, pano usue tukamwile kuntola u Paulo ukuo. Iki kyekino umwene jujuo alyalondile kuvomba, ulwakuuva akamwile kukla iisi jino jumile.
And we having gone before to the ship, sailed to Assos, there intending to take in Paul, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go on foot;
14 Ye atufikile ukuo ku Aso, tukampakilatukampakila mu meli tkaluta ku Mitilene.
and when he met with us at Assos, having taken him up, we came to Mitylene,
15 Kange usue tukabukile kuhuma ukuo ikighono ikya vuvili tukafikile ulubale ulwa vuvili ulwa kiponge ku Kio. Ikighono kino kikwisa, tukafikile ku kiponge ikya Samo, ikighono kino kikwisa tukafikile kulikaja ilya Mileto.
and there having sailed, on the next day we came opposite Chios, and the next day we arrived at Samos, and having remained in Trogyllium, on the following day we came to Miletus,
16 Ulwakuva u Paulo alya lamuile ku kkyula kuhumila ku Efeso, ulwakuti nangatumilaghe nambe unsiki ghwene mu Asia; ulwakuva alyale ng'aning'ani ija kwangupa ku Yerusalemu vwimila uvwa kikulukulu ikya pentekoste, ndavule lukanoghiile kuvomba anala.
for Paul decided to sail past Ephesus, that there may not be to him a loss of time in Asia, for he was hurrying, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem on the day of the Pentecost.
17 Kuhuma ku Mileto akomola avanhu kuluta ku Efeso pe akavakemele avaghogholo ava mu nyumba ija kufunyila.
And from Miletus, having sent to Ephesus, he called for the elders of the assembly,
18 Ye vafikile kwa mwene, akavavula, umue mwe veene mukagula ndavule ikighono ikya kwanda ye nisile apa pa Asia, ndavule nikale kulyumue ifighono fyooni.
and when they were come to him, he said to them, “You know from the first day in which I came to Asia, how I was with you at all times;
19 Nimbombile u Mutwa mu vukalo vwooni namahosi, nimumuko sino sinyaghile une ni gila ija va Yahudi.
serving the LORD with all humility, and many tears, and temptations, that befell me in the counsels of the Jews against [me];
20 Mukagula kuuti nanikisighile kupulisia kulyumue ikinu kyoni kila kino kilyale kinofu. ndavule une nilyavavulanisie pa vuelu kange kuluuta inyumba ni nyumba.
how I kept back nothing of what things are profitable, not to declare to you, and to teach you publicly, and in every house,
21 Mukaguka kuuti une nikaghendelile kukuvavula ava Yahudi nava Yunani mululato ulwa Nguluve nu lwitiko ulwa Mutwa ghwitu Yesu.
testifying fully both to Jews and Greeks, conversion toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
22 Lino, lolagha, une, pano nikumwitika uMhepo u Mwmike kuuta ku Yerusalemu, nanikagula nambe agha ghano ghikunihumila une ukuo,
And now, behold, I—bound in the Spirit—go on to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will befall me in it,
23 ulwakuva uMhepo u Mwimike ikunyolela une mulikaja kange ijova kuuti amanyololo ni mumuko fyefino fikunighula une.
except that the Holy Spirit fully testifies in every city, saying that bonds and tribulations remain for me;
24 Looli une nanikasaghile kuuti uvukalo vwaango kusila jooni ija lutalaama lwango, neke nimale ulughendo lwango kumbombele inofu jino nilyupile kuhuma kwa Mutwa Yesu, kukwolela ilivangili lyalusungu lwa Nguluve.
but I make account of none of these, neither do I count my life precious to myself, so that I finish my course with joy, and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to fully testify [to] the good news of the grace of God.
25 Lino, lolagha, nikagula kuuti mweeni vooni, mun'kate muvalamuvala muno nikalutile kuvadalikila uvutua, namungavwaghe kange vweni.
And now, behold, I have known that you will no longer see my face, among all you [to] whom I went preaching the Kingdom of God;
26 Ku uluo nikuvolela umusyughu iji, kuuti nisiila n'kole mudanda ija muunhu ghweni.
for this reason I take you to witness this day, that I [am] clear from the blood of all,
27 Ulwakuva nanikasaghile kuuva pulisiia uvughane vwa Nguluve.
for I did not keep back from declaring to you all the counsel of God.
28 Mu uluo muve valoleli vwimila vwiinu jumue mwevene, nakukipugha kyooni kino uMhepo Mwimike avavikile umue kuva valoleli. Muve valoleli kudima ikipugha ikya Mutwa kino alyaghulile ni danda jamwene jujuo.
Take heed, therefore, to yourselves, and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit made you overseers, to feed the Assembly of God that He acquired through His own blood,
29 Nikagula kuuti kuvuuka kulyune, ing'eve ing'ali sikwingila kulyumue, kange navangakisaghilaghe ikipugha.
for I have known this, that there will enter in, after my departing, grievous wolves to you, not sparing the flock,
30 Nikagula kuuti kange mu vamo mulyumue jumue avaanhu vaamo vikwisa nakujova ghano mavivi, Neke kukuvakwesa avavulanisivua vavafwataghe avene.
and there will arise men of your own selves, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.
31 Ku uluo muve maso. Mukumbukaghe kuuti amaka ghatatu nanikabuhilile kukuvavulanisia umuunhu ghweni mulyumue namahosi pakilo na pamwisi.
Therefore, watch, remembering that three years, night and day, I did not cease with tears warning each one;
32 Lino une nikuvatola kwa Nguluve, na kulisio ilya lusungu lwa mwene, lino likuvanosia napikuvapela uluhombo palikimo aveene vooni vano vapakilue kwa Nguluve.
and now, I commend you, brothers, to God, and to the word of His grace, that is able to build up, and to give you an inheritance among all those sanctified.
33 Nanikanoghilue indalama, sahabu, nambe amenda.
I coveted the silver or gold or clothing of no one;
34 Mukagula jumue mwe veene kuutikuuti amavoko agha ghanipelile ifipelua fyango ne mwene kaange ifipelua ifyavala vano vakale palikimo nune.
and you yourselves know that to my necessities, and to those who were with me, these hands ministered;
35 Mu aghuo ghooni nikavapelile ikihwani kino ndavule kinoghile kukuvatanga vano vasila ngufu isa kuvomba imbombo, ndavule jinoghile kukumbuka amasio gha Mutwa Yesu, amasio ghano ajovile umwene jujuo: “Kiba kuhumia kukila kukwupila.”
I showed you all things, that, thus laboring, it is necessary to partake with the ailing, to also be mindful of the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said: It is more blessed to give than to receive.”
36 Ye ajovile anala, akafughama akifunya palikimo naveene.
And having said these things, having bowed his knees, with them all, he prayed,
37 Vooni vakalila fiiojo na pakumughwila u Paulo ku singo napikumunonela.
and there came a great weeping to all, and having fallen on the neck of Paul, they were kissing him,
38 Vakakaalile fijo kughoni ulwakuva kila kino akajovile, kuuti navili kuvwagha kange uvweni vwa mwene. Kange vakamuhingilisie ku Merikebuni.
sorrowing most of all for the word that he had said—that they are about to see his face no longer; and they were accompanying him to the ship.
