22 “Mwe baume, bamunyinane+ na bashifwe, kutikeni ku fyo nalamweba ukuti ine nshili no mulandu.”+
2 (Awe, ilyo baumfwile alelanda kuli bena mu ciHebere,+ batalele tondolo, kabili atile:)
3 “Ine ndi muYuda,+ uwafyalilwe mu Tarsi mu calo ca Kilikia,+ lelo ukusambilila kwena nasambilile muli uno wine musumba no wansambilishe ni Gamaliele,+ kabili nafundilwe ukukonka sana+ amafunde ya fikolwe, nali uwapimpa+ mu kubombela Lesa nge fi fine na imwe bonse muli lelo.
4 Kabili nacushishe nga nshi aba iyi Nshila no kubepaya,+ nalekaka abaume pamo na banakashi no kubatwala ku fifungo,+
5 na shimapepo mukalamba ne cilye conse ica bakalamba+ e nte shandi kuli uyu mulandu. E bampeele na bakalata+ ba kutwala ku baYuda banensu mu Damaseke, kabili naleyako ku kusenda balya bantu ukubaleta ku Yerusalemu nabakakwa pa kuti bakandwe.
6 “Lelo ilyo naleya ndepalamina ku Damaseke, mu nshita ya kasuba pa kati, apo pene fye ulubuuto ulukalamba ukufuma mu muulu lwabyatile ukunshinguluka,+
7 kabili nawile pa nshi no kumfwa ishiwi lilenjeba ati, ‘Sauli, Sauli, cinshi ico ulencushisha?’+
8 Nayaswike nati, ‘Ni mwe bani, mwe Shikulu?’ Na o anjebele ati, ‘Nine Yesu umwina Nasarete, uo ulecusha.’+
9 Na kuba abantu nali+ na bo balimwene ulubuuto lelo tabaumfwile ishiwi lya walelanda na ine.+
10 Awe natile, ‘Ncite shani+ mwe Shikulu?’ Na o Shikulu anjebele ati, ‘Ima, kabiye ku Damaseke, e ko ukebwa fyonse ifyo ufwile ukucita.’+
11 Lelo apo nshalemona nangu cimo pa mulandu wa kuti ulubuuto lwalisanikishe, abo nali na bo e banjikete ku maboko no kuntungulula mpaka nafika ku Damaseke.+
12 “Awe Anania, umuntu uutiina Lesa ukulingana na mafunde, kabili uwaleshimikwa+ icisuma ku baYuda bonse abaleikala kulya,
13 aishile kuli ine, kabili cilya aiminina apo ndi, anjeba ati, ‘Sauli, munyinane, lolesha!’+ Na ine ilya ine nshita naliloleshe no kumumona.
14 Atile, ‘Lesa wa fikolwe+ fyesu nakusala+ ukuti wishibe ukufwaya kwakwe no kumona+ Uwalungama+ no kumfwa ishiwi lyakwe,+
15 pa kuti ukabe inte yakwe ku bantu bonse pa fintu wamona no kumfwa.+
16 Nomba mulandu nshi ulekokwela? Ima, ubatishiwe+ no kusamba+ imembu shobe pa kulilila kwi shina lyakwe.’+
17 “Lelo ilyo nabwelele ku Yerusalemu+ kabili ilyo nalepepa mwi tempele, naponene mu tulo utukalamba+
18 no kumona Shikulu alenjeba ati, ‘Angufyanya, ufume bwangu mu Yerusalemu, pantu tabakasumine+ ubunte bobe pali ine.’
19 Na ine natile, ‘Mwe Shikulu, balishiba ukuti nine nalepoosa abatetekela muli imwe mu cifungo+ no kubomina ifikoti mu masunagoge yonse;+
20 kabili ilyo baleipaya Stefani+ inte yenu, na ine e po nali no kusuminishako+ kabili nine nasungile ifya kufwala fya balemwipaya.’
21 Lelo anjebele ati, ‘Kabiye, pantu nkakutuma ukutali ku bena fyalo.”+
22 Awe balekutika fye ukufika ne lyo Paulo asosa aya mashiwi, e lyo basansula amashiwi yabo, abati: “Ipayeni umuntu wa musango yu, pantu talingile ukuba uwa mweo!”+
23 Kabili pa mulandu wa kuti balebilikisha no kupoosaika ifya kufwala fyabo no kukuba ulukungu mu mwela,+
24 umukalamba wa bashilika asosele ukuti batwale Paulo mu nkambi ya bashilika no kumuuma ifikoti pa kuti asaale, pa kutila eshibe umulandu balepangila icongo+ ca musango uyo pali ena.
25 Lelo ilyo bamukakile pa kuti bamuume ifikoti, Paulo aebele umukalamba wa bashilika uwaiminine mupepi, ati: “Bushe imwe mwalisuminishiwa ukuuma umwina Roma+ ifikoti uushilapingulwa?”
26 Awe, ilyo umukalamba wa bashilika aumfwile ici, aile ku mukalamba wabo no kumweba, ati: “Bushe namwishiba ico mulefwaya ukucita? Uyu muntu mwina Roma.”
27 E ico umukalamba wa bashilika apaleme no kumwipusha ati: “Njeba, bushe uli mwina Roma?”+ Na o atile: “Ee.”
28 Umukalamba wa bashilika ayaswike ati: “Nashitile ishi nsambu sha kuba umwikashi pa mutengo uukalamba.” Paulo atile: “Lelo ine nafyelwe+ fye na sho.”
29 E ico, apo pene, abapene bamuume ifikoti balimutalwike; no mukalamba wa bashilika alitiinine pa kwishiba ukuti mwina Roma+ no kuti e o akakile.
30 E ico, ubushiku bwakonkelepo, apo alefwaisha ukushininkisha ico abaYuda bamupeelele umulandu, alimukakwile no kweba intungulushi sha bashimapepo ne cilye conse ica Sanhedrini ukulongana. E lyo aletele Paulo no kumwiminika mu kati kabo.+
