1 Bhakapitilanjeje ku Ampipoli na ku Apolonia, gubhapitengenenje mpaka ku Teshalonike, kweneko jashinkupagwa shinagogi ja Bhayaudi. 2 A Pauli malinga nkubho gwabho gubhailundile, gubhakungulwishe nabhonji ga Majandiko ga Ukonjelo kwa Mobha ga Pumulila gatatu gwangali pumulila. 3 Bhalilunguya na talashiya kuti yashinkupinjikwa a Yeshu bhapotekwe na bhayushe kukopoka kubhawilenje. Na kuti, “A Yeshu bhungunnungushiyangabho ni a Kilishitu.” 4 Bhananji munkumbi gwabhonji gubhakulupalilenje nigubhailundilenje na a Pauli na a Shila. Na Bhagiliki bhabhagwinji bhaajogopangaga a Nnungu na bhanabhakongwe bhakulungwanji, gubhailundilenje.

5 Ikabheje Bhayaudi gubhakwetenje lupimililo, gubhapolekenje bhandunji bhangalinginji bha mmbone, gubhatendilenje ulendo nigubhakumbuyenje nnjasha pa shilambo powe. Gubhapitengenenje ku nyumba ja a Yashoni bhaliganishiyanga kuti kweneko shibhaapatanje a Pauli na a Shila nkupinga bhaapelekanje ku lugwinjili lwa bhandu. 6 Ikabheje bhangaapatanga, kwa nneyo gubhaakwekwetenje a Yashoni na bhakilishitu bhananji mpaka ku bhakulungwanji bha shilambo, bhalijobhelanga bhalinkutinji, “Bhene bhandunjibha bhanapuganyanga shilambolyo na nnaino bhaikengenenje na kukuno. 7 A Yashoni bhashikwaposhelanga kunngwabho. Bhowe bhanakananga Malajilo ga a Kaishali, bhakutinji. ‘Bhapali bhakulungwa bhana bhashemwa a Yeshu.’ ” 8 Kwa gene malobhego, bhakulungwanji bha shilambo na lugwinjili lwa bhandunji gubhatengukenje. 9 Gubhaatendilenje a Yashoni na ashaajabhonji bhowe bhashoyanje mmbiya, kungai gubhaaleshilenje bhajabhulangane.

10 Ikaishileje shilo, bhakilishitu bhala gubhaapelekenje a Pauli na a Shila mpaka ku Bheloya. Bhakaikanganeje kweneko gubhajinjilenje nshinagogi ja Bhayaudi. 11 Bhene bhandunjibho pubhalinginji bhanguja kupunda bha ku Teshalonike bhala. Gubhaliposhelenje lilobhe lila kwa ntima gwa mmbone, gubhakaguyenje Majandiko ga Ukonjelo kila lyubha, nkupinga bhalolanje ibhaga ibheleketwa na a Pauli na a Shila ili ya kweli. 12 Bhabhagwinji munkumbi gwabhonji mula bhakukulupalilangaga na bhanabhakongwe Bhagiliki bhakwetenje itengu na bhanabhalume bhabhagwinji.

13 Ikabheje Bhayaudi bha ku Teshalonike bhakapilikananjeje kuti a Pauli bhanalungaya lilobhe lya a Nnungu ku Bheloya, gubhapitengenenje kweneko, gubhatandubhenje kutenda nnjasha na kukwiya lugwinjili lwa bhandu. 14 Shangu bhakilishitu bhala gubhaapelesheyenje a Pauli mpaka kunyenje litanda, ikabheje a Shila na a Timoteo gubhalepekenje ku Bheloya. 15 Ikabheje bhaapelesheyenje a Pauli bhala, gubhaapelekenje mpaka ku Atene. Kungai, gubhabhujilenje na ntenga kukopoka kwa a Pauli gwa kuti, a Shila na a Timoteo bhanakabhanje kwaakagula ku Atene.

16 A Pauli bhali nkwaalindililanga a Shila na a Timoteo ku Ateneko, yashinkwaashima muntima gwabho bhakaibhoneje yanamu ya ashinnungu igumbele shene shilambo shila. 17 Bhai, nshinagogi a Pauli bhatendaga kunguluka na Bhayaudi na bhandunji bhana bhaajogopangaga a Nnungu na kila lyubha bhatendaga tenda nkungulu gwa palugwinjili na bhandunji bhobhowe bhaibhoneyangaga penepo. 18 Na bhananji bhakagulangaga majiganyo ga a Epikulo na a Ashitoiki gubhataukenje. Bhananji bhalinkutinji, “Bhapinga bheleketa nndi bhangumbabha?” Bhananji gubhashiteanje, “Paabhoneka mbuti bhanalunguya ga ashi nnungu bha shijeni.” Pabha a Pauli bhatendaga lunguya ga a Yeshu na ga yuka.

19 Kwa nneyo gubhaatolilenje a Pauli gubhaapelekenje ku lukumbi lwa ashikalongolele bha shilambo lwashemwaga Aleopago, gubhashitenje, “Tunapinga tugamanye malombolelo ga majiganyo genu ga shijeni gunkulunguyaga. 20 Indu ina itupilikene mmakutu getu inabhoneka ya shijeni kungwetu. Tunapinga tumumanye yene indui malombolelo gakwe nndi.” 21 Pabha bhandunji bha ku Atene na bhandunji bhananji bhatamanganaga kweneko bhatendaga pinganga kutagulilana na pilikanishiya ngani ja indu ya shijeni.

22 Bhai, a Pauli gubhajimi pa lukumbi lwa Aleopago, gubhashite, “Mmashilambo bha pa Atene! Pungubhona kuti mmanganyanji nnatolelelanga kwa kaje ngani ja dini, 23 pabha punapitaga ako na koko nikwibhona indu yenunji munkujujilanga Nnungu, njikushibhona shitala shimo shijandishwe. ‘Kwa a Nunngu bhutukakwamanya.’ Bhai, nne ngunakunnungushiyanga, ga bhene a Nnungu bhunkwaatindibhalilanga gwangali kwaamanyabho.

24 “A Nnungu, bhapengenye shilambolyo na indu yowe ili nkati jakwe, bhashibha Bhakulungwa bha kunnungu na pa shilambolyo, bhalabho bhakatama mmajumba ga jujila Nnungu gashenjilwe na bhandunji. 25 Na wala shakwa shibhaapinga mundu abhatendele mbuti shipali shibhaaloleya, pabha bhenebho ni bhakwaapanganga bhandu bhowe gumi na kwaapanganga kila shindu. 26 Na kukoposhela kuka mundu jumo a Nnungu gubhapengenye bhandunji bha ilambo yowe nikwaatendanga bhajenelanje pa shilambolyo. Bhali bhajibhishile miongwe na mipika ja mmbali ya ilambo ya tama bhene bhandunjibho.

27 “Bhashinkutenda nneyo, nkupinga bhandunji bha ilambo yowe bhaaloleyanje nkali kwaapapaya papaya, iishile pakwabhona. Nkali nneyo, a Nnungu bhangataliya pubhali tome na uwe. 28 Malinga shabhelekete mundu jumo,

32 Bhai, bhakaapilikananjeje a Pauli bhalibheleketa ngani ja yuywa bhawilenje, bhananji gubhatendilenje mbenji, ikabheje bhananji gubhashitenje, “Tunapinga tupilikanishiye kabhili jene nganiji.” 33 A Pauli gubhajabhwile, gubhaaleshilenje pa lukumbi pala. 34 Ikabheje bhandunji bhana gubhaakagwilenje na gubhakulupalilenje. Munkumbimo bhaapali a Dionishi bhaaliji bha munkumbi gwa Aleopago na bhakongwe bhamo lina lyabho a Damali na bhananji.
