1 Kwa kukolela Ampifoli na Apoloniya, nawaheluka mbaka Tesalonike kula kwali na ng'handa ya kusalila ya Wayahudi. 2 Paoli nakelongoza na hewo kota vyoyazowele, kalutilila kulongasa na hewo mazuwa gadatu ga kwesela, yowalangusa Maandiko Matakatifu. 3 Yaliyowalonjela kota imgana Kilistu Mlohozi kugazigwa na kuzilipuka. Kawalonjela, “Yesu yula yondilikumdamla kwa hemwe ndo Kilistu Mlohozi.” 4 Wayao wamwe nawakunda welongoza na Paoli na Sila. Kahi, wanhu wenji Wagilichi walingumfugamila Nguluwi hamwe na wadala wenji wang'hangala nawelongoza na hewo.
5 Ila Wayahudi nawona maya, wawakungajiza wanhu wehile kulawa kuli honhu ha kuguzila vinhu, wadita chilundo na kwaluchiza ivuche mujini kweng'ha. Waikumbila ng'handa ya Yasoni wochijesa wowafika amo Paoli na Sila wawegale mchalanza. 6 Ila nahawawawene, ahyo nawambuluna Yasoni na wanhu walingumkunda Kilistu wanji mbaka kwa wakulu wa Muji, wayowa, “Wanhu awa wali woihazanya isi yeng'ha na sambi wa baha hali muji. 7 Yasoni nakawavisa hakaye hake. Weng'ha wangudita vinji na ilajizo lya Kaizali wolonga hino, ‘Kakuko mndewa yunji yalinguchemigwa Yesu.’ ” 8 Kwa kulonga ahyo wawenjiza majesa wakulu wa muji na chilundo cha wanhu. 9 Wambuza Yasoni na wayage walavye sendi, hamba wawalechela walute.
Ako Belea
10 Hamihe wala wanhu walingumkunda Kilistu wawahimiliza Paoli na Sila walute Belea. Baho du lowafichile ako, nawaluta kuli ng'handa ya kusalila ya Wayahudi. 11 Wanhu wa ako wali wohulika ng'hatu kusinda wanhu wa Tesalonike. Nawaubochela lula luzi kwa igano likulu, wawa wolola goya Maandiko Matakatifu chila zuwa, leka kujeza kulola kota gala gowalonjile Paoli na Sila gali gakukomya. 12 Wayao wamwe nawakundile na kahi wadala wa Chigiliki wala wang'hangala na walume kahi.
13 Ila Wayahudi wa Tesalonike lowahuliche kota Paoli nayali yodamla ulonzi wa Nguluwi ako Belea, nawaluta ako, waluka kigala ivuche na kutumajiza vilundo vya wanhu. 14 Wala wanhu nawamhilika himahima Paoli yalute mwhani ila Sila na Timoteyi nawapona Belea. 15 Wala wanhu wamhiliche Paoli nawaluta hamwe na heye mbaka Asene. Hamba wahiluka hamwe na ilajizo kulawa kwa Paoli kota Sila na Timoteyi wamuwinze himahima vyoiwa.
Paoli kangulongasa na wanhu wa Asene
16 Paoli loyali yowabeta Sila na Timoteyi ako Asene, nhumbula ya heye naizudila lukami loyawene honhu aho vyohamemile jimalukolo. 17 Nakalongasa na Wayahudi na wanhu wamwe wali womkunda Nguluwi mli ng'handa ya kusalila ya Wayahudi, hali luga hamwe na weng'ha wala woyile. 18 Wanji nawali wowawinza Epikulo na Stoiki wetwanza na heye. Wamwe walonga, “Kangugana kulonga choni ayu munhu?” Kwa vila Paoli nayali yodamla gala ga Yesu na gala ga kuzilipuka, wamwe walonga, “Yangoneka kangudamla gala ga milungu ja chijenzi.” 19 Ahyo nawamhola Paoli, wamigala Aleopago, walonga, “Twangugana kuvizela ayi mbuli inyale yowali ulonga. 20 Vinhu vimwe vyotuhuliche kwa makutu ga hetwe gangoneka kota vyakububuwaza kwa hetwe. Twangugana kuvizela mbuli azi zandaze.” 21 Wanhu wa Asene na wanhu wanji wa ako wali wotumiya mihela ja hewo jeng'ha kisimila na kuhulichiza mbuli zinyale.
22 Paoli nakema hali chalanza cha Aleopago, nakalonga, “Wanhu wa Asene! Ndangona hemwe, mwangoneka ndo wanhu muizelele ng'hatu nzila ya kumfugamila Nguluwi, 23 mina londali ndikola aku na ako ndilola chinhu chomlingufugamila hemwe, nambona honhu hamwe helile handikwe, ‘Kwa Nguluwi yohazeleche.’ Lelo ayo yomuwele ngumfugamila hamvizelele, ndo yondilingumdamla kwa hemwe.” 24 “Nguluwi yalumbile isi yeng'ha na vyeng'ha vili mumo, ndo Mkulu wa kilanga na isi, heye hambe yekale mli ng'handa za Nguluwi zizenjigwe na wanhu. 25 Kahi hambe yaditichilwe kwa moko ga wanhu kota vila kangugana chinhu choneche chila, mina heye yula ndo yalinguwapa wanhu ukomu na ndo na kuwapa wanhu chila chinhu. 26 Kwa kukolela munhu yumwe nakalumba nhanzi zeng'ha muisi na kuzidita zikale kuli isi yeng'ha. Nakawika goya ng'hatu mhela unojile na kohi wanhu awo woza kikala. 27 Nakadita ahyo, leka wanhu awo wampale, na hanji wampale heye kota vyowalingumzela. Ahyo Nguluwi hawele kutali na chila yumwe wa hetwe. 28 Kota vyoyalonjile munhu yumwe,
“ ‘Mgati mwa heye hetwe twangikala.
Twangibatilila, na twa baha.’
Na kota wadekulizi wa hemwe vyowalonjile,
“ ‘Hetwe twa wana wa heye.’ ”
29 “Wone lelo, hetwe twa wana wa Nguluwi, hailinguganigwa kumjesa Nguluwi iwe kota zahabu, sendi ama iganga lihongoligwe na kunoligwa na wanhu. 30 Nguluwi nakadita kota halolile mihela jila wanhu lowali wapoka. Ila sambi, nakalajiza wanhu weng'ha wamgalamchile Nguluwi kulawila nzila za hewo zihile.
31 “Mina nakawika zuwa lila yowatagusa wanhu wa isi yeng'ha walingudita ganojile kwa kukolela munhu yumwe yamhagule. Nguluwi kawawichila hazelu weng'ha mbuli ayi kwa kumzilipula munhu ayo!”
32 Lowamhuliche Paoli yolonga mbuli ya kuzilipuka kwa wabagame, wayao wamwe waseka, ila wamwe nawalonga, “Wangugana kukuhulika kahi mbuli ayi.” 33 Ahyo, Paoli nakawaleka, kalawa hala mchitala. 34 Ila wanhu wamwe nawelongoza na heye, wawa wanhu walingumkunda Kilistu. Wamwe wa awo wali Dionisio wa Aleopago na mdala yumwe yalinguchemigwa Damali na wanhu wanji.
