< Acts 18 >

1 After these things, having departed from Athens, he arrived at Corinth.
Ye sikilile imbombo isio, u Pqulo alyavukile ku Athene kuluta ku Korintho.
2 And upon finding a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, who had recently arrived from Italy with Priscilla his wife, (because Claudius had ordered all Jews to depart from Rome, ) he met with them.
Ukuo akamwaghile umuYahudi juno itambulivu Akwila umunhu ghwa likabula lya Ponto, umwene nu ndala ghwamwene juno itambulivua Prisila valisile kuhuma ukuo ku Italia, u lwakuva ukilaudia alyalaghile ava Yahudi vooni vabuuke ku Roma;
3 And because he was of the same trade, he lodged with them and was working. (Now they were tentmakers by trade.)
U Paulo alikalile nakuvomba imbombo navene ulwakuva umwene ivomba imbombo jino jiling'ana ni jivanave. Avvene valyale vinosya ifivighili.
4 And he was arguing in the synagogue on every Sabbath, introducing the name of the Lord Jesus. And he was persuading Jews and Greeks.
U Paulo akapuling'ana navene munyumba ijakufunyila mufighono fyooni ifya sabati. Alyavavulile ava Yahudi palikimo nava Giriki.
5 And when Silas and Timothy had arrived from Macedonia, Paul stood firm in the Word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.
Looli usauli nu Timotheo yevisile kuhuma ku Makidonia, u Paulo alyasung'ilue nu Mhepo kukuvolela ava Yahudi kuuti u Yesu ghwe Kilisite.
6 But since they were contradicting him and blaspheming, he shook out his garments and said to them: “Your blood is on your own heads. I am clean. From now on, I will go to the Gentiles.”
Unsiki ghuno valyan'kanile name kukunsyojola, pe u Paulo akakung'unile umwenda ghwa mwene pavulongolo pavanave, na kukuvavula, “Idanda jinu jive vwimila vwa matue ghiinu jumuie; Une nisila makole. Kuhumalino na kughendelela, nikuvalutila avapanji”.
7 And moving from that place, he entered into the house of a certain man, named Titus the Just, a worshiper of God, whose house was adjoined to the synagogue.
Pe akavuka kuhuma pala akaluta kunyumba ja Tito Yusto, umunhu juno ikunsuma u Nguluve. Inyumba jamwene jilipipi ni nyumba ja kufunyila.
8 Now Crispus, a leader of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, with his entire house. And many of the Corinthians, upon hearing, believed and were baptized.
U Krispo, mulongosi ghwa nyumba ja kufunyila palikimo na vanhu avamunyumba ja mwene vakamwitika u Mutwa. Avanhu vinga kuhumakuhuma ku Koritho ye vapulike u Paulo ijova valitike nana kukwofghua.
9 Then the Lord said to Paul, through a vision in the night: “Do not be afraid. Instead, speak out and do not be silent.
U Nguluve akam'bula u Paulo pakilo kusila ijambonekelo, “Nungoghopaghe, looli jovagha nungajikaghe Kimmie.
10 For I am with you. And no one will take hold of you, so as to do you harm. For many of the people in this city are with me.”
Ulwakuva une nilipalikimo nuve, nakuale juno kumwa ighela kukunangania, ulwakuva nili navanhu vinga mulikaja ili”.
11 Then he settled there for a year and six months, teaching the Word of God among them.
U Paulo akikalile ukuo ku Niki ugwa mwaka ghumo na Messi n'tanda ye ivulanisia ilisio ilya Nguluve muvanave.
12 But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews rose up with one accord against Paul. And they brought him to the tribunal,
Looli u Galio akavombilue kuva n'temi ughwa ku Akaya, ava Yahudi vakima palikimo nhu Paulo na pikun'twala pavulongolo pakitengo ikya vuhighi,
13 saying, “He persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”
vakaati, “Umunhu uju ikuvahonga avanhu vifunyaghe kwa Nguluve kisila vutavike vwa ndaghhilo”.
14 Then, when Paul was beginning to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews: “If this were some matter of injustice, or a wicked deed, O noble Jews, I would support you, as is proper.
Unsiki ghuno u Paulo ye ilonda kujova, u Galio akavavula ava Yahudi, “Umue mwe vayahudi, ndavule ilikosa au uvunangifi, jalejiva kyang'ani kuvavombela.
15 Yet if truly these are questions about a word and names and your law, you should see to it yourselves. I will not be the judge of such things.”
Looli ulwakuva ye maswali, ghano ghiling'ana na mansion namatavua kange ni ndaghilo sinu, kange muhighanaghe jumue mwevene. Une naninoghuananinoghua kuuti nive muhighi ghwa aghuo.”
16 And he ordered them from the tribunal.
U Galio akavavula vavubuke pavulongolo pa kitengo ikyavuhighi,
17 But they, apprehending Sosthenes, a leader of the synagogue, beat him in front of the tribunal. And Gallio showed no concern for these things.
Mu uluo, vakan'kola u Sosthene, umulongosi ughwa nyumba ija kufunyila, vakan'tova pavulongolo pa kitengo ikyavuhighi. Looli ugalio nakoghwipe kino valya vombile.
18 Yet truly, Paul, after he had remained for many more days, having said goodbye to the brothers, sailed into Syria, and with him were Priscilla and Aquila. Now he had shaved his head in Cenchreae, for he had made a vow.
U Paulo, ye ikalile pala unsiki n'tali, akavaleka avanyalukolo pe akaluta ni Melissa ku Siria palikimo nu Prisila nu Akwila. Ye vakyale kuvuka ku bandali, alyaketile ilinyele lya mwene ulwakuva alijighile kuuti m'pesie.
19 And he arrived at Ephesus, and he left them behind there. Yet truly, he himself, entering into the synagogue, was disputing with the Jews.
Ye vafikile ku Efeso, u Paulo alyamulekale u Prisila nu Akwila Pala, looli jujuo mwene akingila munyumba ijakufunyila nakupuling'ana na va Yahudi
20 Then, although they were asking him to remain for a longer time, he would not agree.
Ye vam'bulile u Paulo ikale navene unsiki un'tali, umwene akakanile.
21 Instead, saying goodbye and telling them, “I will return to you again, God willing,” he set out from Ephesus.
Looli akavuka kuvanave, akavavula, “Nigomoka kange kulyumue, ulwakuuva vwevughane vwa Nguluve”. Apuo, akabuka ni Meli kuhuma ku Efeso.
22 And after going down to Caesarea, he went up to Jerusalem, and he greeted the Church there, and then he descended to Antioch.
U Paulo ye imile ku Kaisaria, akatogha kuluta kuhungila inyumba imbaha inyimike ija kufunyila ija ku Yerusalemu, kange akika paasi panyumba imbaha inyimike ija ku Antiokia.
23 And having spent some length of time there, he set out, and he walked in order through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.
Ye ikalile munsiki Pala, u Paulo alyabukile kukila ku fisala ifya Galatia na ku Frigia nakuvakangasia inumbula ava vulanisivua vooni.
24 Now a certain Jew named Apollo, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man who was powerful with the Scriptures, arrived at Ephesus.
Umu Yahudi jumo juno itambulivua Apolo, juno alyaholilue ukuo ku Alexandria, Akisa ku Efeso. alyale mfwihu kujova ni ngufu muvulembe.
25 He was learned in the Way of the Lord. And being fervent in spirit, he was speaking and teaching the things that are of Jesus, but knowing only the baptism of John.
U Apollo akavulilue mu ndaghilo sa Mutwa. Ndavule alyale ni ngufu nu Mhepo, alyajovile nakuvulanisia vunofu ghano ghiling'ana nu Yesu, alyakaguile kuuti lwe lwofugho lwa Yohana.
26 And so, he began to act faithfully in the synagogue. And when Priscilla and Aquila had heard him, they took him aside and expounded the Way of the Lord to him more thoroughly.
U Apolo akatengula kujova kuvukangafu munyumba imbaha inyimike ijakufunyila. Looli u Prisila nu Akwila ye vam'pulike, valyavombile uvumanyani nu mwene kange vakamwolelela ku kyanya musila ija Nguluve vunofu.
27 Then, since he wanted to go to Achaia, the brothers wrote an exhortation to the disciples, so that they might accept him. And when he had arrived, he held many discussions with those who had believed.
Ye anoghilue kuvuka kuluta ku Akaya, avanyalukolo vakan'kangasia inumbula na pikuvalembela ikalata avavulanisivua vano valyale ku Akaya kuuti vamwupile. Ye afikile kulusungu alyatangile kyongo vala vano valyamwitike.
28 For he was vehemently and publicly reproving the Jews, by revealing through the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.
Ku ngufu sa mwene Navarro manyani, u Apolo alyavakilile ava Yahudi pavwelu ye ivonesia kuhumila amalembe agha kuuti u Yesu ghwe Kilisite.
