1 Hule kwekube tatjila, takakoziba kuti tjigwizi itjetjo tjaka tjiyi Malitha. 2 Bagali bemuhango iyeyo bakatilakidza bunhu gusakawolobegwa, ngobe bakatiwamutjila tose, bakabesa moto yezo kwaka kwatjitangisa na kakale kupota. 3 Phawuli waka ahaka fukatigwa lewhuni, akati edzisa mumoto kukabhuda nyoka yawha pisa ikawumpombela luboko. 4 Bagali bemuhango iyeyo bakati bebona tjibandana tjakalembeleka paluboko gugwe, bakati umwe kuwumwe, "Akuna mbhuzo kuti nlume iwhoyu umbulayi. Nekutobe atjila mugungwa, koga ndulamo ayitowumbvumila kuti atjile." 5 Koga, iye akahahamulila tjibandana mumoto tjikasiwunlume. 6 Bakalindila kuti azwimbe kene kuti angowila pasi efa; koga bakati balindila kwelubaka gulefulefu bakabona kusina tjakayipa tjinowunswikila, bakahandula mikumbulo yabo bakati undzimwana.

7 Sangwenu pedlo nebugalo igogo kwaka kuna minda yenlume waka eli he wetjigwizi itjetjo, waka eyi Phabhulasi, wakatiwamutjila ngebunhu akatipa bugalo kwemahhuba matatu. 8 Kwakayetikala kuti tate baPhabhulasi baka balilele pasi begwala bugwele gweluhhahhamo nentumbgwana wemahaba; Phawuli akabakumba akatembezela, akati ababiga maboko, bakapola. 9 Kukati kwayetikala ikoku, bose banhu mutjigwizi baka bena dzinghwele bakahha bakapolesewa. 10 Bakatipa zwipo zwinjinji; nekene toyenda, bakatilongela mukepe kene ini tjinohakika mugwendo.

11 Hule kwemimwedzi mitatu takamilika takatanha kepe tjekuAlekizandha tjaka tjama patjigwizi itjetjo mulubaka gwembaba, tjaka tjakanamatidziwa mifananidzo yeMaphahla emidzimwana inoyi Khasita naPholakisi, mbeli kwatjo. 12 Takama paSiyirakhuse, tikagalapo kwemahhuba matatu. 13 Kubva ipapo takayenda ngekepe tikanoswika paRegiyamu; hule kwehhuba lin'ompela kukamilika mhepo inobva kuburwa, muhhuba lebubili takaswika kuPhuteyoli. 14 Ipapo takawana bagalimoyo, bakatikumbila kuti tigale nabo kwemahhuba ali kutondeka. Tikakotjiyenda kuRoma. 15 Bagalimoyo bayikoko, bakati bawha nekwedu, bamwe bakabuya bebva kunhanga yetengesela yekuAphiyasi, bamwe bebva kun'umba Dzebezi Nhatu bewhotihanganidza. Phawuli wakati ebabona akaboka Ndzimu, akasima.

16 Takati taswika kuRoma, Phawuli akabvumigwa gala yega, ana nghwi wengwa wakawunlinda.

17 Hule kwemahhuba matatu wakadana batungamili bemaJuta panhu pan'ompela; bakati bakubungana, akati kubali, "Makamu angu, nekutobe kusina tjandakatjinya kubanhu bakanyi kwedu kene tjinoleyana nemilenje yabobatategulu bedu, koga ndakasungwa kuJerusalema atugwa mumaboko emaRoma. 18 Bakati bandiholesesa, bakayemula ndisunungula, ngobe kwaka kusina nlandu wekuti ndingabulawa. 19 Koga maJuta akati alamba, ndikabe nditi ndipindisigwe kuna Khesari, nekutobe ndaka ndisina tjandingatjeta tjaba tjangu natjo. 20 Ndiko ikoku kwandakumbilila kuti ndimubone ndilebeleke namwi, saku kuli ngentha yekugalabgwe kwebanhu beIsirayeli kwayeta kuti ndisungwe neketane iyeyi."

21 Bakati kuwunli, "Akuna whalo dzataka amutjila dzibva kuJudiya dzinoleba nekuko, kakale akuna umwe wehama wakaswika pano akakubudzilila kene leba tjakayipa nekuko. 22 Koga toyemula kuti tiwhe nawe tjawunokumbula; ngobe toziba kuti kolebgwa zwakayipa nekwezila iyeyi mubugalo gose."

23 Bakati babiga hhuba, bakabuya kun'umba kwaaka egala bali banjinji. Akabalondesedzela ndebo iyeyo kubvila mangwanana kudza kunoswika madekwana, epa busupi nekwebumambo gweNdzimu kakale eyedza kuti abatjenesele nekwaYesu kubva munlayo waMozisi nekubva mubalebesambeli. 24 Bamwe bakagutshikana nekwaakaleba, koga bamwe abazogalamoyo. 25 Ndizo, baka kakabadzana, bakakomilika beyenda hule kwekuti Phawuli aleba ndebo in'ompela. "Meya Yakayengemala yaka yakatambunuka payakati kunlebesambeli Isaya nekwabobatategulu benyu.

28 "Zibani ke kuti tjidza kweNdzimu ikoku kwatjiyendesewa kuBataya, banowhowhilila." 29 * [Wakati aleba matama iyawa, maJuta akamilika oyenda, ekakabadzana kwazo.]

30 Wakagalapo kwemakole mabili ahhele egala paanozwilipila, ewamutjila bose baka behha kuwunli, 31 esumikila bumambo gweNdzimu kakale ediya nekwaHe Yesu Khirisitu akahalabvuka asingadzibisiwe.
