Bienzedi bia bapostolo 13:1-52
13 Mpindieu mu tshisumbu tshia mu Antiokia muvua baprofete ne balongeshi aba:+ Bânaba, Simeona uvuabu babikila ne: Nigê, Lukio wa ku Kulene, Manaene uvua mulonge pamue ne Helode mukokeshi wa distrike, ne Shaula.
2 Pavuabu benza mudimu wa* Yehowa* ne bajila biakudia, nyuma muimpe* wakamba ne: “Ntekelayi Bânaba ne Shaula+ ku luseke bua mudimu undi mubabikidile.”+
3 Nunku bobu bamane kujila biakudia ne kusambila, bakabatentekela bianza, bobu kubalekela, kuyabu.
4 Nunku bantu aba bakapueka ku Seleukia, batuma kudi nyuma muimpe,* bobu kuangatshilaku mazuwa kuyabu ku Kupulio.
5 Pakafikabu mu Salami, bakatuadija kumanyisha dîyi dia Nzambi mu nsunagoga ya bena Yuda. Bavua kabidi ne Yone uvua ubambuluisha.*+
6 Bobu bamane kunyunguluka mu tshidiila* tshijima, baye too ne ku Pafo, bakapetangana ne muena Yuda mukuabu, dîna diende Bâ-Yezu uvua muena mupongo ne muprofete wa dishima.
7 Uvua ne nguvena* Sêgio Paulo, muntu wa lungenyi. Bu muvua muntu eu ujinga bua kumvua dîyi dia Nzambi ne muoyo mujima, wakabikila Bânaba ne Shaula kudiye.
8 Kadi Eluma muena mupongo (bualu ke mudibu bakudimuna dîna diende nanku) wakatuadija kubaluisha, ukeba kusesuisha nguvena au kule ne ditabuja.
9 Ke Shaula, udibu babikila kabidi ne: Paulo, muwujibue tente ne nyuma muimpe,* kumutangilaye mumutuishile mêsu bikole,
10 kuambaye ne: “Wewe muntu udi muwule tente ne diibila dia mishindu yonso ne buenzavi bua mishindu yonso, wewe muana wa Diabolo,+ wewe muena lukuna wa malu onso makane, kuena ulekela kukonyangaja njila milulame ya Yehowa* anyi?
11 Tangila! Tshianza tshia Yehowa* tshidi kuudi; bua tshikondo kampanda neushale mpofu kuyi umona bukenke bua dîba.” Diakamue dibungi dikole ne mîdima biakamubuikila, ne ukavua wenda unyunguluka ukeba muntu bua amukuate ku tshianza bua kumulombola.
12 Nunku pakamona nguvena au tshivua tshienzeke, wakalua muena kuitabuja, bualu dilongesha dia Yehowa* divua dimukemeshe bikole.
13 Pashishe Paulo ne bena diende bakangata mazuwa, kumbukabu ku Pafo kufikabu ku Pêge mu Pampulia. Kadi Yone+ wakabashiya, kupinganaye ku Yelushalema.+
14 Kadi bakumbuka ku Pêge, kuyabu ku Antiokia mu Pisidia. Pakabuelabu mu nsunagoga+ dituku dia Nsabatu, bakasomba.
15 Bobu bamane kubala Mikenji+ ne mifundu ya Baprofete patoke, batangidi ba nsunagoga bakabatumina mukenji bamba ne: “Balumiana, bana betu, binuikala ne dîyi dia kukankamija nadi bantu, diambayi.”
16 Nunku Paulo wakajuka, kunyungishaye tshianza wamba ne:
“Balumiana, bena Isalele ne nuenu bantu bakuabu badi batshina Nzambi, telejayi.
17 Nzambi wa tshisamba tshia bena Isalele etshi wakasungula bankambua betu, kubandishaye tshisamba etshi pavuabu basombe bu bantu ba ku babende mu buloba bua Ejipitu ne kubapatulaye muomu amu ne diboko diela muulu.+
18 Mu bidimu bitue ku 40, wakabaleja lutulu mu tshipela.+
19 Yeye mumane kubutula bisamba muanda mutekete mu buloba bua Kanâna, wakabapesha buloba buabi bu bumpianyi.+
20 Bionso abi biakenzeka mu bidimu bitue ku 450.
“Pashishe wakabapesha balumbuluishi too ne ku muprofete Samuele.+
21 Kadi bakalua kulomba mukalenge,+ ke Nzambi kubapesha Shaula muana wa Kishi, muntu wa mu tshisa tshia Benyamina,+ bua bidimu 40.
22 Yeye mumane kumumbusha, wakajula Davidi bua kuikalaye mukalenge wabu,+ muena bualu buakafidilaye bumanyishi, kuambaye ne: ‘Ndi mupete Davidi muana wa Yishai,+ muntu udi usankisha muoyo wanyi;+ yeye neenze malu onso andi musue.’
23 Bilondeshile dilaya diende, Nzambi mmupeshe Isalele mupandishi wa mu bana* ba muntu eu, mmumue ne: Yezu.+
24 Kumpala kua yeye kulua, Yone ukavua muyishe bantu bonso ba mu tshisamba tshia Isalele patoke dibatiza didi tshimanyinu tshia dinyingalala bua mpekatu.+
25 Kadi pakavua Yone ujikija mudimu wende, uvua wamba ne: ‘Nudi nuela meji ne: ndi nganyi? Tshiena yeye to. Kadi, tangilayi! Muntu udi ulua panyima panyi undi tshiyi mukumbane bua kusulula sandala ku makasa ende.’+
26 “Balumiana, bana betu, nuenu ndelanganyi ya mu dîku dia Abalahama ne bakuabu badi munkatshi muenu badi batshina Nzambi, dîyi dia lupandu elu mbatutuminadi.+
27 Bualu bantu ba mu Yelushalema ne bakokeshi babu kabavua bitabe muntu eu to, kadi pakasombabu bu balumbuluishi, bakakumbaja malu avua Baprofete bambe+ adibu babala ne dîyi dikole dituku dionso dia nsabatu.
28 Nansha muvuabu kabayi bamusangane ne bualu buvua bukumbanyine lufu,+ bakalomba Pilato bua amushipeshe.+
29 Pakakumbajabu malu onso avuabu bafunde bua bualu buende, bakamutulula ku mutshi,* kumutekabu mu lukita.*+
30 Kadi Nzambi wakamujula ku lufu,+
31 ne munkatshi mua matuku a bungi wakamueneka kudi bantu bavua bafume nende ku Galela babande ku Yelushalema. Bobu aba bakadi mpindieu bantemu bende kumpala kua bantu.+
32 “Nunku tudi tunumanyisha lumu luimpe lua bualu buvuabu balaye bankambua betu.
33 Nzambi mmutukumbajilabu buonso, tuetu bana babu, padiye mubishe Yezu ku lufu;+ anu mudibu bafunde mu musambu muibidi ne: ‘Wewe udi muananyi; lelu eu ndi mulue tatuebe.’+
34 Bu muvuaye mumubishe ku lufu, kayi mua kupingana kabidi ku dibola, Yeye mmuambe bualu ebu mushindu eu: ‘Nennupeshe mishindu ya dileja dinanga dia lulamatu ivuabu balaye Davidi, idi ya lulamatu.’*+
35 Nunku badi bamba kabidi mu musambu mukuabu ne: ‘Wewe kuakuitaba bua muena lulamatu webe abole to.’+
36 Ku luende luseke, Davidi wakenzela Nzambi mudimu* mu tshikondo tshiende, kulalaye tulu mu lufu, kumujiikabu ne bankambua bende, ne kubolaye bushuwa.+
37 Kadi muntu uvua Nzambi mujule kakabola to.+
38 “Nunku nuenu, bana betu, numanye ne: ku butuangaji bua muntu eu tudi tunumanyisha bualu bua dibuikidibua dia mpekatu,+
39 ne kabidi ne: ku butuangaji bua muntu eu, muntu yonso udi witabuja udi ubingishibua ku malu onso anuvua kanuyi mua kubingishibua ku diambuluisha dia Mikenji ya Mose.+
40 Nunku, dimukayi bua bualu ebu budibu bambe mu mifundu ya Baprofete kabunufikidi, bua ne:
41 ‘Tangilayi, nuenu bena dipetu, nukeme ne nujimine, bualu ndi ngenza mudimu mu matuku enu, mudimu unuikala kanuyi mua kuitaba nansha kakese, nansha bikala muntu munulondele bualu buawu buonso.’”+
42 Mpindieu pavuabu benda bapatuka, bantu bakabasengelela bua babambile kabidi malu aa dituku dia Nsabatu uvua ulonda.
43 Pakapatuka disangisha dia mu nsunagoga, bena Yuda ba bungi ne bantu bavua bitabuje buena Yuda bavua batendelela Nzambi bakalonda Paulo ne Bânaba; ne bobu aba, pavuabu bayukila nabu, bakabasengelela bua kushala mu ngasa wa Nzambi.+
44 Mu dituku dia Nsabatu wakalonda, bena mu tshimenga atshi pabuipi ne bonso bakadisangisha bua kumvua dîyi dia Yehowa.*
45 Pakamona bena Yuda misumba ya bantu, bakuwula tente ne mukawu, kutuadijabu kuakula bibi, batontolola malu avua Paulo wamba.+
46 Nunku Paulo ne Bânaba bakabambila ne dikima dionso ne: “Bivua bikengela banji kunumanyisha nuenu dîyi dia Nzambi.+ Bu munudi nudibenga, nudimona kanuyi bakumbanyine muoyo wa tshiendelele, tangilayi, tudi tuya kudi bisamba bikuabu.+
47 Bualu Yehowa* mmututumine dîyi edi ne: ‘Ndi mukuteke bu butoke bua bisamba bua wikale lupandu too ne ku ntengu ya buloba.’”+
48 Pakumvua bantu ba bisamba bikuabu bualu ebu, bakabanga kusanka, kutumbishabu dîyi dia Yehowa,* ne bantu bonso bavua bakaje muoyo wabu bimpe bua kupeta muoyo wa tshiendelele bakalua bena kuitabuja.
49 Bualu bukuabu kabidi, dîyi dia Yehowa* divua dienda ditangalaka mu ditunga dionso dijima.
50 Kadi bena Yuda bakasonsola bakaji bende lumu bavua batshina Nzambi ne bantu banene ba mu tshimenga, kukebelabu Paulo ne Bânaba dikengeshibua+ ne kubipatabu mu buloba buabu.
51 Ke bobu kubatutuila lupuishi lua muinshi mua makasa abu, kuyabu ku Ikonio.+
52 Nunku bayidi bakatungunuka ne kuwujibua ne disanka+ ne nyuma muimpe.*
