1 Phawuli wakalingisisa banhu belubahhe, akati, "Makamu angu, ndatjila mbeli kweNdzimu nehana mbuyanana kuswika ileli hhuba." 2 Mphirisiti nkulu unoyi Ananiyasi wakalaya baka balimile pedlo kuti bawumadule nlomo. 3 Phawuli eba eti kuwunli, "Ndzimu unowhokuloba, iwe guma lakadzulugwa nekalaga! Ugele kuti unditonge nekwenlayo, koga iwe tjekuko uvuna nlayo ngelaya kuti ndimadugwe!"

4 Baka balimile pedlo bakati, "Unotuka Mphirisiti nkulu weNdzimu?"

5 Phawuli akahandula eti, "Ndandisingazibe, makamu angu, kuti ndiye Mphirisiti Nkulu; ngobe kwaka kwagwa kuti, ‘Usitongoleba zwakayipa nekwentongi webanhu.’ "

6 Ngobe Phawuli wakaziba kuti bamwe babo baSadusi bamwe baFarisi, akamilidza whi mulubahhe, eti, "Makamu angu, imi ndiMfarisi, ndinkololo weMfarisi; ndolongwa nlandu ngentha yegalabgwe kwangu mumuka kwebafi."

7 Wakati aleba ikoku, kukaba nekukakabadzana pakati kwebaFarisi nebaSadusi; gubungano likathubukana pakati. 8 Ngobe baSadusi banoti akuna muka kubafi, akuna ntumwa weNdzimu, akuna Meya; koga baFarisi banobvuma kuti kose ikoku kuyapo. 9 Kukabe nekukakatilana kukulu; bamwe bebakwali belubabi gwebaFarisi bakamilika bakakakabala beti, "Akuna tjakayipa tjatinowana munlume iwhoyu. Hapa kuli kuti meya kene ntumwa weNdzimu wakalebeleka naye ke?"

10 Kukati kakabadzana kwakula, nlawuli webagwi bengwa, ngentha yehla kuti bangabva bepalulanya Phawuli, akatumila bagwi bengwa kuti banowuntsara pabali, bawunlesi munzi webagwi bengwa.

11 Busiku gunotobela He wakama ntome kukwe akati, "Sima, ngobe sekwawapa busupi nekwangu muJerusalema, wakafanila nopa busupi nekuRoma kakale."

12 Kukati kwayedza, maJuta akalangana akazwisunga ngetuna kuti aangadle kene iko n'wa kuswika abulaya Phawuli. 13 Baka bepinda makumi mana ibabo bakalangana ikoku. 14 Bakayenda kubaphirisiti bakulu nekubawhola, benoti, "Tazwisunga ngetuna kuti atitowholabila zodliwa kuswika tabulaya Phawuli. 15 Ndizo, imwi kan'ompela nelubahhe zibisani nlawuli webagwi bengwa kuti awunlesi kumuli sekunoyi mohaka whisisa ndebo iye. Iswi takamilila kuti tiwumbulaye asanhu akaswika pedlo."

16 Koga nkololo wehazwadzi yaPhawuli wakawha langana kwabo; ndizo wakayenda akanobudza Phawuli munzi webagwi bengwa. 17 Phawuli wakadana umwe webatungamili bebagwi bengwa akati, "Yendisani nhhuhha iwhoyu kunlawuli webagwi bengwa; una tjaanohaka wumbudza." 18 Ndizo wakawuyendisa kunlawuli webagwi bengwa akati, "Phawuli umujele wandikumbila kuti ndihhise nhhuhha iwhoyu kumuli, ngobe una tjaanohaka mubudza."

19 Nlawuli webagwi bengwa wakawumbhata neluboko, akati atshedukila ntome akawumbhuzwa baliboga, eti, "Ini tjawunohaka ndibudza?"

20 Wakahandula eti, "MaJuta abvumilana kuti amukumbile kuti muhhise Phawuli kulubahhe mangwana, sekunoyi banohaka bhuzwisisa lebeswa kakale nekukwe. 21 Koga musibabvumile; ngobe kuna balume banopinda makumi mana bakawumbgwatilila, bakazwisunga ngetuna kuti abatowhodla kene n'wa kuswika bawumbulaya; sangwenu batjizwilulamisa, bakalinda mbvumo yenyu."

22 Ndizo nlawuli webagwi bengwa wakasunungula nhhuhha, ewunkowhomesedza eti, "Usibudze kene iye nhu kuti wandibudza ikoku."

23 Wakadana balawuli bebagwi bengwa babili akati kubali, "Lulamisani bagwi bengwa bali makhulu mabili, nebagwi bembizi bali makumi ali kutondeka, nebabhayani bali makulu mabili muyende kuKhesariya mu awa yebutatu yebusiku. 24 Muwanile Phawuli mbizi yekuti atanhe bo, anoswika zwibuyanana kuna Felikisi mbhati wentunhu." 25 Akakwala lukwalo gunoti.

26 "Imi Kilawudiyasi Lisiyasi, kuna Unolemekedzewa mbhati wentunhu Felikisi, ndomubuyisa. 27 Nlume iwhoyu waka abhakhwa nemaJuta, betjowhowumbulaya, imi ndikahha nebagwi bengwa bangu ndikawuwangulila, hule kwekuti ndaziba kuti unghali wekuRoma. 28 Ndiyemula ziba kuti banowuntilika nlandu weni, ndakawuyendisa kulubahhe gwabo. 29 Ndikawana kuli kuti banowuntilika nlandu wezwinhu zwenlayo wabo, koga kusina nlandu wekuti angasungwa kene kuti abulawe. 30 Hule kwekuti ndabudziwa kuti kuna langana kwayetiwa nekukwe, ndawuntumila kumuli nekulibilidza, ndabudza bo nebanowuntilika nlandu kuti balebe mbeli kwenyu kuti banowuntilika nlandu weni."

31 Ndizo bagwi bengwa bakatola Phawuli selayiwa kwabo, bakayenda naye busiku bakadza bakanoti kuAntiphathirisi. 32 Tjimuka bagwi bemakumbo bakabgwilila kunzi webagwi bengwa, besiya bagwi bembizi kuti bayendilembeli naye. 33 Bakati baswika kuKhesariya bakayendisa lukwalo kumbhati wentunhu, bakatula Phawuli bo mbeli kukwe. 34 Wakati abala lukwalo, akabhuzwa kuti ndewawupi ntunhu. Akati awha kuti ndewe kuSilisiya 35 wakati, "Ndowhokuwhilila hapa banokutilika nlandu baswika." Akalaya kuti alindiwe ali mun'umba yaHherodi.
