Acts 10
1 Pfumu yimosi yi masodi ma basi Loma mu nkangu wuba ntedilanga “Italiya” wuba kalanga ku Sezali, dizina diandi Khoneli.
Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,
2 Wuba mutu wu busonga, wuba kinzikanga mambu Nzambi va kimosi ayi basi nzoꞌandi yoso. Wuba sadisanga minsukami ayi wuba sambilanga Nzambi mu zithangu zioso.
a devout man, and one who feared God with all his house, who gave gifts for the needy generously to the people, and always prayed to God.
3 Wumona mu tsongolo nduka-nduka mu thangu yintatu mu masika, mbasi yi Nzambi yikota mu nzoꞌandi ayi yinkamba: —A Khoneli!
At about three in the afternoon, he clearly saw in a vision an angel of God coming to him, and saying to him, "Cornelius."
4 Khoneli wusungamana kuntala ayi lukhuku, ayi wunyuvula: —A Pfumu! Mbi biobi e? Mbasi wumvutudila: —Zitsambulu ziaku ayi makaba weti vana minsukami bitudidi kuidi Nzambi, wubitebukidi moyo.
He, fastening his eyes on him, and being frightened, said, "What is it, Lord?" He said to him, "Your prayers and your gifts to the needy have gone up for a memorial before God.
5 Fidisa buabu batu ku Yope; tumisa Simoni, mutu wowo beti tedila Piela,
Now send men to Joppa, and bring one Shim'on who is surnamed Peter.
6 Widi ku nzo Simoni diodi wumvanganga bima mu minkanda mi bibulu nzo beni va muenda mbu yidi.
He lodges with one Shim'on, a tanner, whose house is by the sea."
7 Mbasi yoyi yiba kunkamba bu yitumbu kuenda, Kolineyi wutumisa bisadi biodi mu bisadi biandi ayi disodi dimosi mu masodi momo maba kalanga va ndambuꞌandi, diodi diluta kinzikanga mambu ma Nzambi.
When the angel who spoke to him had departed, he called two of his household servants and a devout soldier of those who waited on him continually.
8 Bu kamana kuba samunina mambu moso, buna wuba fidisa ku Yope.
Having explained everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
9 Mu lumbu kilanda, bu baba mu nzila ayi bu bafikama ayi Yope, Piela wumaka ku yilu muanzu mu kuenda sambila. Yiba nduka-nduka midi.
Now on the next day as they were on their journey, and got close to the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray at about noon.
10 Nzala yiwombo yiba yandi ayi wuzola dia. Sumbu diba ti buna bakidi nlambila bidia, buna wuzamuka mu Pheve.
He became hungry and desired to eat, but while they were preparing, he fell into a trance.
11 Wumona diyilu dizibukidi ayi wumona kima kimosi kidedakani banga nledi wunneni wukuluka mu zitsongi ziandi ziya va ntoto.
He saw heaven opened and a certain container descending to him, like a great sheet let down by four corners on the earth,
12 Muna muba mintindu mioso mi bibulu; bibio bindiatilanga mu bivumu, ayi mintindu mioso mi zinuni.
in which were all kinds of four-footed animals of the earth, crawling creatures and birds of the sky.
13 Wuwa mbembo yimosi yinkamba: —Piela, telama! Vonda ayi dia!
A voice came to him, "Rise, Peter, kill and eat."
14 Piela wuvutula: —Nana Pfumu! Bila ndididi ko bima bisumuka ayi bimvindu.
But Peter said, "Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean."
15 Mbembo yibuela kunkamba mu khumbu yimmuadi: —Biobi Nzambi kavedisa ngeyo kadi kubi mona bisumuka.
A voice came to him again the second time, "What God has cleansed, you must not call unclean."
16 Mu zikhumbu zitatu kamonina tsongolo beni bosi ku nzimunina kima beni kikuma ku diyilu.
This was done three times, and immediately the vessel was received up into heaven.
17 Piela bu kaba yindula tsundu yi tsongolo yoyi kamona, muna thangu beni, batu bobo Kolineyi kafidisa buna bateliminiva muelo nzo bu bamana yuvula nzo yi Simoni.
Now while Peter was very perplexed within himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, look, the men who were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Shim'on's house, stood before the gate,
18 Batela mbila ayi bayuvula enati Simoni diodi beti tedila Piela widi mu nzo beni.
and called and asked whether Shim'on, who was surnamed Peter, was lodging there.
19 Piela bu kaba yindula tsongolo beni, Pheve wunkamba: —Tala, batu batatu balembo tombi.
While Peter was pondering the vision, the Ruach said to him, "Look, three men seek you.
20 Vayi telama, kuluka ayi yenda yawu mu kambu memata bila minu veka ndiba fidisidi.
But arise, get down, and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them."
21 Piela bu kabaluka kuba batu beni, buna wukamba: —Tala minu mutu wowo luntomba; A diambu mbi luizidi e?
And Peter went down to the men, and said, "Look, I am the one whom you seek. Why have you come?"
22 Bamvutudila: —Kolineyi, pfumu yi masodi ma basi Loma wututumini, niandi widi mutu wusonga ayi wunkinzikanga Nzambi ayi tsi yoso yi Bayuda yeti kuntelimina kimbangi kimboti. Mbasi yi Nzambi yinlubudi mu diambu katumisa ku Nzoꞌandi muingi kawa mambu kuidi ngeyo.
They said, "Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous man and one who fears God, and well spoken of by all the Jewish nation, was directed by a holy angel to invite you to his house, and to listen to what you say."
23 Bu kaba kotisa mu nzo; wuba vangisila nleko. Va nsuka, wutelama ayi wuyenda yawu ayi ndambu yi bakhomba zi divula Yope bayenda yandi.
So he called them in and lodged them. On the next day he arose and went out with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.
24 Batula ku Sezali mu lumbu kilanda. Kolineyi wuba kuba vingila, wumana kutikisa bibutu biandi ayi bakundi bandi.
On the next day he entered into Caesarea. Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his relatives and his near friends.
25 Mu thangu Piela kaba kota mu nzo, Kolineyi wuyiza dengana Piela, wubua va malu mandi ayi wumbuongimina.
When it happened that Peter entered, Cornelius met him, fell down at his feet, and worshiped him.
26 Vayi Petelo wuntelimisa bu katuba: —Telama kuaku! Bila minu mamvama ndidi mutu!
But Peter raised him up, saying, "Stand up. I myself am also a man."
27 Bu kaba solula yandi, wukota mu nzo ayi wumona batu bawombobuna bakutikini.
And as he talked with him, he went in and found many gathered together.
28 Piela wuba kamba: —Beno luzebi ti dikandama mu Mina mi Bayuda kuidi Nyuda mu fubakananga voti buminanga mutu kambulu Nyuda. Vayi Nzambi wumbonisini ti kadi mutu wumosi ndilendi tedilanga ko wusumuka voti wumvindu ko.
He said to them, "You yourselves know how it is an unlawful thing for a man who is a Jew to join himself or come to one of another nation, but God has shown me that I should not call any man unholy or unclean.
29 Diawu bu lufidisi batu biza thombi, ndizidi mu kambu ziphaka. Buabu thidi zaba diambu mbi luthumisini.
Therefore also I came without complaint when I was sent for. I ask therefore, why did you send for me?"
30 Kolineyi wumvutudila: —Kiawu kiaki lumbu kinya mu thangu yi phila yayi; mu thangu yintatu yi masika buna ndilembo sambila mu nzoꞌama, tala mutu wumosi, wuvuata minledi miba lezama, wuyiza kuthelimina ku ntuala.
Cornelius said, "Four days ago until this hour, at three in the afternoon, I was praying in my house, and look, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
31 Ayi wukhamba: “Khoneli, Nzambi wuwilu zitsambulu ziaku bosi wutebukidi moyo makaba maku momo weti vana minsukami.
and said, 'Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your gifts to the needy are remembered in the sight of God.
32 Fidisa batu ku Yope, tumisa Simoni diodi bantedilanga Piela, widi ku nzo Simoni diodi dieti vangila bima mu minkanda mi bibulu. Nzo andi vana muenda mbu yidi.
Send therefore to Joppa, and summon Shim'on, who is surnamed Peter. He lodges in the house of Shim'on, a tanner, by the sea.'
33 Diawu mu kambu vingila, mfidisi batu kuidi ngeyo ayi diambu dimboti vengi bu wizidi. Buabu beto boso tuidi vava va ntuala Nzambi mu wa mambu mamo Pfumu katumini mu kutukamba!”
Therefore I sent to you at once, and it was good of you to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God to hear all things that have been commanded you by the Lord."
34 Piela weka nyoluka: —Bukiedika mbakudi ti Nzambi katalanga bizizi bi batu ko.
And Peter opened his mouth and said, "Truly I perceive that God does not show favoritism;
35 Vayi mu zitsi zioso woso mutu weti kunkinzika ayi weti sadila busonga, niandi wummonisanga Nzambi khini.
but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
36 Niandi wufidisa mambu mandi kuidi bana ba Iseli, mu kuba samunina Nsamu Wumboti wu ndembama mu nzila yi Yesu Klisto, niandi Pfumu yi batu boso.
The word which he sent to the children of Israel, proclaiming good news of peace by Yeshua the Messiah—he is Lord of all—
37 Luzebi mambu moso masamunu mu Yuda dioso, tonina mu zunga ki Ngalili mu thangu Yowani kamanisa longa nsamu wumbotokolo;
that spoken word you yourselves know, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galil, after the immersion which John preached;
38 buevi Nzambi kadukudila Pheve Yinlongo ayi lulendo kuidi Yesu, wuba muisi Nazaleti. Niandi wudiengila mu bibuangu bioso mu vanganga mamboti ayi mu belusa batu bobo baba bakangama mu buvika bu lulendo lu Satana, bila Nzambi wuba yandi.
even Yeshua of Natzeret, how God anointed him with the Ruach ha-Kodesh and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
39 Beto tuidi bambangi ba mambu moso momo kavanga mu tsi yi Bayuda ayi mu Yelusalemi. Niandi bavondisa bu bambanda va nti.
We are witnesses of everything he did both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they also killed by hanging on a tree.
40 Vayi Nzambi wumfulukisa mu lumbu kintatu ayi wumvana minsua mi monikina diaka,
God raised him up the third day, and gave him to be revealed,
41 bika sia ti kuidi batu boso vayi kuidi bambangi ziozi niandi veka Nzambi kakisobudila thama, fuana beto tudia ayi tunua yandi ku nzimunina bu kafuluka mu bafua.
not to all the people, but to witnesses who were chosen before by God, to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
42 Niandi wututuma tulonga batu ayi tutelama kimbangi ti niandi Nzambi kabieka zuzi di batu badi moyo ayi bafua.
He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that this is the one who is appointed by God as the judge of the living and the dead.
43 Mimbikudi mioso mintelimina kimbangi ti woso wunkuwilukilawela lemvokolo masumu mandi mu dizina diandi.
All the prophets testify about him, that through his name everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins."
44 Buna Piela wikidi tubi mambu mama, Pheve Yinlongo yikuluka mu batu boso bobo bawa mambu beni.
While Peter was still speaking these words, the Ruach ha-Kodesh fell on all those who heard the word.
45 Bayuda bobo bawilukila bayiza ayi Piela, basimina mu mona ti dikaba di Pheve Yinlongo dieka ayi kuidi batu bobo bakambulu Bayuda.
They of the circumcision who believed were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Ruach ha-Kodesh was also poured out on the non-Jewish people.
46 Bila babawa babo banyoluka zimbembo zinkaka ayi bankembisa Nzambi.
For they heard them speaking in other tongues and magnifying God. Then Peter answered,
47 Buna Piela wuba yuvula: —A buevi, mutu wulenda kandika batu baba babotama mu nlangu, bawu batambudi Pheve Yinlongo banga beto e?
"Can anyone withhold the water, that these who have received the Ruach ha-Kodesh as well as we should not be immersed?"
48 Diawu wuvana lutumunu muingi babotama mu dizina di Yesu Klisto. Bosi banleba mu diambu kakala ndambu bilumbu.
He commanded them to be immersed in the name of Yeshua the Messiah. Then they asked him to stay some days.
