Bikitshino bia Batumibua 19:1-41
19 Pabaadi Apolose kii mu Kodinda, Mpoolo baadi mukidile mu bipindi bia nsenga kula na kalunga ka mema na afika ku Efeso, aye nkupeta bangi balongi kuakua
2 na aye nkuibepusha’shi: “Nui bapete kikudi kiselele panudi bafikie bena kukumiina?” Abo nkumualula’shi: “Kasha tatuapushishe’shi kui kikudi kiselele.”
3 Biabia aye nkuakula’shi: “Nui babatshishibue lubatshisho kinyi?” Abo nkualula’shi: “Lubatshisho lua Yowano.”
4 Mpoolo nkuakula’shi: “Yowano baadi mubatshishe na lubatshisho luikale kitunduilo kia kuilanga, alungulanga bantu bua kukumiina mui yawa afiki kunyima kuaye, kuamba’shi mui Yesu.”
5 Pa kupusha biabia, abo nkubatshishibua muishina dia Nfumu Yesu.
6 Pabaadi Mpoolo muibatentekie maasa, kikudi kiselele kibayikile pabadi, na abo nkubanga kuakula mu ingi ndimi na kutemuka.
7 Boso buabo abaadi bana balume 12.
8 Munda mua mieshi isatu, baadi esamba n’eshimba dinyingie mu kitumbuilo, elanga miisambo na atompanga kuibakuminyisha pabitale Bufumu bu’Efile Mukulu.
9 Kadi pabaadi bangi abaadi bapapishe mashimba bapele kukumiina, bakulanga bibubi pabitale Eshinda dia Muanana kumpala kua kibumbu kia bantu, bakatukile kuabadi na akaasha balongi kuabadi, elanga miisambo efuku dioso mu nshibo ya kalasa ka Tiranose,
10 Bino bibakitshikile munda mua bipua bibidi, bua’shi baaba bena Yunda boso na bena Greke bashale mu provense a Azi bapushe eyi dia Muanana.
11 Na Efile Mukulu nkutungunuka na kukita bilengieleshi bikata kukidila kui Mpoolo,
12 mu kipaso kibaabadi abatuala mpa na bilamba na bitambaala bibaadi abikumu mbidi yaye kui bantu babaadi abakumbu, na mikumbo ibaadi ayipu, na bikudi bibubi bibaadi abituuku.
13 Kadi bangi bena Yunda abaadi abende na kuifunya bua kutuusha ba demo, abatompele naabo kufubisha eshina dia Nfumu Yesu kui baaba babaadi na bikudi bibubi; bakulanga’shi: “Nakutumina eyi bua kutuuka muishina dia Yesu abakuete kulambukisha kui Mpoolo.”
14 Munkatshi muabo mubaadi bana balume musambo baa tshite muakuidi mukata muina Yunda, baadi n’eshina bu Sefa abaadi abakitshi biabia.
15 Anka kikudi kibubi nkuibalula’shi: “Nauku Yesu, na nauku’nyi Mpoolo; kadi anue nui ba nanyi?”
16 Nka paapa muntu baadi na kikudi kibubi nkuibetumbila, nkuibakila boso bukome na nkuibakambila mu kipaso kibaabadi basukie mu yaaya nshibo musua na batapikie malonda.
17 Bino, bibaadi biukibue kui bantu boso, bena Yunda na bena Greke babaadi bashale mu Efeso; na moo ubebakuatshile boso, na eshina dia Nfumu Yesu dibaadi aditungunuka na kutumbishibua.
18 Na bebungi ba ku baaba babafikile bena kukumiina, babaadi abafiki bua kutonda na kulesha bikitshino biabo patooka.
19 Mbinyibinyi, bebungi ba ku baaba babaadi abakitshi mianda ya malenganyi abafikile na mikanda yabo beyishiika kaalo kumpala kua bantu boso. Pabaababadikile muulo wayo, abapetele’shi ubaadi wa makuta a kiamo kia arja 50 000.
20 Pa muanda wa bukome bua Yehowa, eyi diaye dibaadi aditungunuka na kupalakana na kuikala na bukome.
21 Kunyima kua ino mianda kukitshika, Mpoolo batshile kitshibilo kia’shi kunyima kua kukidila ku Maseduane na ku Akayi, ende ku Yelusalema. Aye nkuakula’shi: “Kunyima kua kuenda kuakua, abitungu’nyi nyende ku Loma.”
22 Biabia aye nkutuma ku Maseduane babidi ba ku baaba abamufubilaa, Timote na Eraste, kadi aye nabene nkushala mu provense a Azi bua mafuku.
23 Mu aa mafuku, kafutakanyi kebungi nkutuuka pabitale Eshinda dia Muanana.
24 Muanda ungi muntu baadi n’eshina bu Demetriyuse, nsendue a biamo bia arja, baadi akitshi tu ntempelo tupeela tua Artemise na biamo bia arja, baadi apetesha ba nsendue makasa ebungi.
25 Baadi mubungie babaadi afubu nabo, na bangi ba nsendue ebalungula’shi: “Bakuetu, anuuku kalolo’shi ku uno mufubo nkuatupetelaa bupeta.
26 Binobino, nukuete kumona na kupusha’shi, ta nka penda mu Efeso kadi mu provense pepi oso a Azi, mui uno Mpoolo mukuminyishishe kibumbu kikata kia bantu na kushintuula mmueneno aabo, ambanga’shi b’efile bakitshibue ku maasa ta mb’efile ba binyibinyi.
27 Dingi, kui masaku kushi penda a’shi mufubo wetu ukekale na nkumo ibubi, kadi mpa na ntempelo a efile mukata mukashi Artemise akamuenekie ku bisumanga, aye abakuete kulanguila mu provense oso a Azi na mu nsenga ishima, akakutue ntumbo yaye.”
28 Bantu pa kupusha bino, abauudile na nsungu, na abo nkubanga kuela misaase’shi: “Artemise a bena Efeso mmukata!”
29 Biabia, kafutakanyi kabaadi mu kibundi kioso, na boso buabo nkutuela lubilo mu mbalo ya maasha bafu’abakakanga Gayuse na Aristakuse, bena Maseduane babaadi abende na Mpoolo mu luendo.
30 Ku luaye lupese, Mpoolo baadi akiebe kutuela mui bantu kadi balongi babaadi abamupelesha.
31 Mpa na bangi ba ku baaba abalumbuulaa misangelo na maasha babaadi ba kuuku baye, babaadi bamutumine bantu bua kumusendeela bua’shi tatuulanga muwa waye mu masaku pa kutuela mu mbalo ya maasha.
32 Bangi babaadi abeele misaase bakulanga kingi kintu, bangi namu bakulanga kingi, muanda mu kibumbu mubaadi kafutakanyi na bebungi ba kuabadi, tababaadi abauku buakinyi mbebungie.
33 Biabia abo nkutuusha Aleksandre mu kibumbu kia bantu, bena Yunda bamutakulanga, Aleksandre nkulesha n’eyaasa bua’shi kibumbu kia bantu kiumiine, na baadi akiebe kuibingisha kui bantu.
34 Kadi pabaabadi batundule’shi mmuina Yunda, ababangile kuela misaase boso pamune munda mua nsaa ifikie ku ibidi’shi: “Artemise a bena Efeso mmukata!”
35 Ku nfudiilo pabaadi muntu sha matalua a kibundi muumishe kibumbu kia bantu, bakuile’shi: “Bena Efeso, nanyi binyibinyi a munkatshi mua bantu sh’auku’shi kibundi kia bena Efeso nyi kilame ntempelo a Artemise mukata na kifuatulo kipone muiyilu?
36 Bu biabidi’shi ino mianda tayi bia kuelesha mpaka, abitungu nushale beshinkie, na tanukitanga mianda lubilo lubilo.
37 Muanda nubatuala bano bantu pano bashi ba ngifi ba mu ma ntempelo sunga bashi bakee efile eetu mukashi.
38 Biabia su Demetriyuse na ba nsendue naye be na muanda na muntu, kui mafuku a kusamba, na ba guvernere* ba ma provense be kuanka; ebalekieyi bakefundene.
39 Kadi, su nukuete kukimba ungi muanda kukaasha uno, abitungu kuatshibue kitshibilo mu kisangilo akikitshika muyile miiya.
40 Muanda, mbinyibinyi tui mu masaku a kuitufunda bu’etombo pabitale uno muanda wa lelo bu biakushi bishinkamiisho biatudia kulesha bu kabingilo ka kuikala kua kino kibumbu ki na kafutakanyi.”
41 Na kunyima kua kuakula bino, bapalakeshe bantu abaadi bebungie.
