Ghamatendo 18:7-28

⁷Kuya Pauli kalawa mne Ing'anda ye ukulombela, kaghenda mne ing'anda ili habehi, ing'anda ya Tito Yusti, imunu iyomtamanila Imulungu.

⁸Kirispo imkulu we ing'anda ye ukulombela na iwanu wa ukaye yake wamtoghola Imtwatsa. Na Wakolinto wengi hawahulike, watoghola na kubatitsighwa.

⁹Litsuwa limwe nechilo, Imtwatsa kamlongela Pauli mne ghamaono, “Uleke kupfuka, ghendelela kulonga, uleke kwinyamala.

¹⁰Kwaapfila nene na hamwe naghwe, kuduhu imunu iyodaha kukulagha, kwaapfila nina iwanu wengi mne isi ino.”

¹¹Apfo Pauli kakala ako mwaka ghumwe na miyetsi sita, kowalangulitsa iwanu imbuli ye Imulungu.

¹²Galiyo hayang'ali imkulu we isi ya Akaya, Wayahudi wetingana hamwe, wamghogha Pauli, wamghala mne ichitala.

¹³Walonga, “Imunu yuno kowatenda iwanu wamtamanile Imulungu bila kughawinza malaghitso gha Musa.”

¹⁴Na Pauli hayabamile kulonga, Galiyo kawalongela Wayahudi, “Ka mng'aghalile lighomba lye imunu kutenda ghehile au kutotsa, ning'adahile kuwahulikitsa.

¹⁵Lekeni kwaapfila lighomba lino lya mchanya mwe mbuli na mataghwa na malaghitso ghenu, mlamle iwenyegho. Nene sibama bae kuwa mlamutsi wa lighomba lino!”

¹⁶Kuya kawawinga walawe mne ichitala.

¹⁷Nawo wose wamghogha Sostene imkulu we ing'anda ya ukulombela, wamtowa hambele he ichitala. Lekeni Galiyo ng'onile bae imbuli ayo ka chinu.

¹⁸Pauli kakala Korinto kwa matsuwa mengi. Kuya kawaleka iwanu iwamtoghole Yesu, kadina mnumbwi Pilisila na Akila waghenda Siriya. Ako Kenkeliya, tsakagheta mvili tsake kwaapfila tsakeka laghano.

¹⁹Wapfika Efeso, baho Pauli kawaleka Pilisila na Akila, kengila mne ing'anda ya ukulombela, kalonga na Wayahudi.

²⁰Iwanu wamlomba wakale naye kwa matsuwa mengi, lekeni Pauli kalema.

²¹Lekeni hayang'ali yakuka, kawalongela, “Imulungu ang'abama nakuya keli kuna mwemwe.” Kuya kadina mnumbwi kalawa Efeso.

²²Hapfikile Kaisariya, kaghenda Yerusalemu kwilamsa na iwanu iwamtoghole Yesu, kuya kahulumkila Antiyokiya.

²³Pauli kakala ako kwa matsuwa chidogho, kuya koka kabitila isi ya Galatiya na Firigiya, kuwaghuma ghumoyo iwanang'ina wa Yesu.

²⁴Mne matsuwa agho Myahudi yumwe iyakemighwe Apolo, iyelekighwe Alekisandiliya, katsa Efeso. Tsakakala imunu yadahile kulonga pfinoghile na yamanyile Ghamaandiko Mahenzeluka.

²⁵Imunu ayo tsakakala kalangulitsighwa Imbuli ye Imtwatsa, na kwaapfila ghumoyo ghwake tsaghukala ghwakwaka, kalangulitsa mbuli tsa Yesu pfinoghile, hata ka tsakamanya ubatitso wa Yohane uliyeka.

²⁶Kandusa kulonga bila kupfuka mne ing'anda ya ukulombela. Pilisila na Akila hawamuhulike, wamkema ukaye yawo, wamlongela Imbuli ye Imulungu pfinoghile ghendo.

²⁷Apolo hayabamile kughenda Akaya, iwanu wa Efeso iwamtoghole Yesu wawaghuma ghumoyo na wawandikila ibaluwa iwanu iwamtoghole Yesu wa Akaya wambokele. Naye hayapfikile ako, kawapfila ng'ani awala iwatoghole kwa uluso we Imulungu.

²⁸Kwaapfila tsakawahuma ghendo Wayahudi hambele he iwanu wose, kalangusa kulawa mne Ghamaandiko Mahenzeluka ka Yesu iyo Kiristu Mkombotsi.
