1 Kwakati umwe nlume unoyi Ananiyasi nemfumakadzi uwe unoyi Safira, bakatengesa bo tjabaka banatjo. 2 Bakatjengelana nemfumakadzi uwe kuti basumbike imwe mari yabakawana, akalesi imwe, akayibiga pamakumbo ebapositoli. 3 Koga Phethiro wakati kuwunli, "Ananiyasi, kungentha yeni Satane alawula moyo uwo kuti unyepele Meya Yakayengemala usumbike imwe mari yawawana pakutengesa minda? 4 Kati pawabe usanhu wayitengesa yabe isi iyo? Pawayitengesa, yaka isimumasimba awo? Kwakungina tjini ikoku mumoyo uwo? Awuzonyepela banhu, koga wanyepela Ndzimu." 5 Ananiyasi wakati ewha matama iyawa, akawila pasi akafa. Luhlo gukulukulu gukawila bose bakakuwha. 6 Bahhuhha bakamilika bakapetelela mbili uwe bakawunsengela kuhhe bakanowumbiganya.

7 Hule kwema awa angaba matatu mfumakadzi uwe wakangina asingazibe tjayetikala. 8 Phethiro wakawumbhuzwa eti, "Undibudze, ndiwo ntengo wamakatengesa nawo minda?"

Wakahandula eti, "Ee ndiwo."

9 Ndizo Phethiro wakati kuwunli, "Matilani kuti mulangane kudze mulike Meya yaHe? Linga! Makumbo ebanhu bayenda kunobiganya nlume uwo abe pankoba, nawebo banowhokusengela kuhhe." 10 Tjinyolotjo wakawila pasi pamakumbo awe akafa. Bahhuhha bakangina bakawuwana afa bakawunsenga bakanowumbiganya ntome kwenlume uwe. 11 Kwakaba nekuhla kukulu mugubungano lose, nemubanhu bose bakawha zwinhu izwezwi.

12 Bapositoli bakayeta zwilakidzilo nemakaabadzo pakati kwebanhu. Bagalimoyo bose baka bali panhu pan'ompela mugutukutu laSolomoni. 13 Akuna wakayedza hanganyila nabo, koga baka belingigwa pehhugwi nebanhu. 14 Koga ke banogalamoyo baka bepamhidzilika kunaHe nebunji, lukawu gwebalume nebafumakadzi, 15 kwakayeta kuti banhu bahhise banogwala mudzizila bakabaladzika pamibhetha nedzinhobo kuti ntuzi waPhethiro, epindazwe, ube pehhugwi kwebamwe babo. 16 Banhu bakakubungana bebva kumizi yakakombeledza Jerusalema, behhisa banogwala nebanodziyidziwa nemeyambi, bose bakanaya.

17 Koga mphirisiti nkulu wakamilika nebamwe bose baaka anabo, baka bali bamwe bebaSadusi, balihhele fupa, 18 bakasunga bapositoli bakabasa mujele lebanhu bose. 19 Koga busiku ntumwa waHe wakahhula mikoba yejele akabadusa, eti, 20 "Yendani munoma muthempeli mubudze banhu matama ose ebutjilo igogu." 21 Bakati bewha ikoku, mangwanana ngwanana bakamukila kuthempeli bakanodiya banhu sekwabakalayiwa.

Mphirisiti nkulu nebaaka enabo bakati beswika bakadana lubahhe nemakulukota ose eIsirayeli, bakati bapositoli banotogwa kujele babuyiwe nabo. 22 Koga bahingi bakawana jele lakaberabegwa koga abazobawana, bakabgwilila benobudza bakababatuma, beti, 23 "Jele taliwana lakaberabegwa kwemalebeswa ose, balindi bakalinda mikoba; koga patahhula mikoba tawana kusina nhu mukati." 24 Nkulu webalindi bethempeli nemphirisiti nkulu nebamwe baphirisiti baka kaabala pabakabikigwa matama akajalo, bakahaya kuti ini tjinowhoyetikala. 25 Kukaswika umwe akati, "Lingani! balume bamakamasa mujele bamile muthempeli banodiya banhu." 26 Nkulu webalindi wakayenda nebalindi bakanobuya nabo, besingahingise masimba, nekuti baka behla kuti banhu bangabakhikhitidza nemabgwe.

27 Hule kwekusinobe babuya nabo, bakabagadza mbeli kwelubahhe, mphirisiti nkulu akababhuzwa, 28 eti, "Atizomukowhomesedza kuti musidiye ngezina ileli, koga imwi mahhadza Jerusalema nezwidiyo zwenyu, kakale mohaka kuti malopa enlume iwhoyu abe pehhugwi kwedu."

29 Phethiro nebamwe bapositoli bakahandula beti, "Takafanila whilila Ndzimu pana kuti tiwhilile banhu. 30 Ndzimu wabotate bedu wakamusa Yesu kubafi, wamakabulaya ngekuwunlembeledza patjileyanyo. 31 Ndzimu wawumilidzila kuludli gugwe seNtungamili neNtjidzi; kuyetila pa banhu bekuIsirayeli nkoba wehanduka neyetigwa mazwibhatigwa matjinyo. 32 Iswi neMeya Yakayengemala Ndzimu yaakapa banhu banoyiwhilila, tibasupi bayizwezwi zwinhu."

33 Bakati bekuwha ikoku bakamon'wa kwazo bekayemula kuti bababulaye. 34 Koga umwe Mfarisi waka eyi Gamaliyeli, ali ndhiyi wenlayo, waka elingigwa pehhugwi kwazo nebanhu bose, wakamilika pakati kwabo mulubahhe akalaya kuti balume ibaba badusigwe kuhhe kwelubakanyana. 35 Akati kubali, "Balume beIsirayeli, ibani nenjele muna tjamunohaka thama kubalume ibaba. 36 Mumahhuba akapinda kwakaba newumwe nlume unoyi Thediyasi, wakazwithama nhu wakwako, banhu bangaba makulu mana bakabhatana naye. Wakabulawa, banhu baka bewuntobela bakapalala, kose kukafuba. 37 Hule kukwe kwakabayapo Judasi wekuGalile, mumahhuba ebagwa kwebanhu, akatjebela banhu kuti bawuntobele. Nayiye bo wakabulawa, nebatobeli babe bakapalala. 38 Ndizo ke muna iyeyi ndebo yangwenuwali ndomupa mano ekuti; siyanani nebalume ibaba! Mubaletje bayende! Nekuti hapa kuli kuti ndongoloso yabo kene tjabanothama tjobva mubanhu, tjowhokona. 39 Koga hapa kuli kuti ndetjeNdzimu, amungabakunde. Mungangozwiwana mugwisana neNdzimu!"

40 Bakabvumilana naye. Bakadana bapositoli bakati basukutigwe. Bakababudza kuti basitongolebeleka nekwezina laYesu, bekabaletja bakayenda zwabo. 41 Bapositoli bakamilika palubahhe, bakahanha kuti bawanikwa bakafanila kuti babhatisiwe honi nentha yezina laYesu. 42 Hhuba nehhuba, baka besingaletje diya nesumikila muthempeli nemudzin'umba kuti Yesu ndiye Khirisitu.
