Masengo 1
1 Alakwe che Teofilo, mu chitabu chachilongolele nalembile yankati indu yanayose iŵaitesile Che Yesu ni iŵaijigenye chitandile kundanda kwa masengo gakwe,
Ukulandisa kokuqala ngakwenza, Teyofilu, ngakho konke uJesu aqala kokubili ukukwenza lokukufundisa,
2 mpaka lyuŵa lila paŵajigalikwe kwinani. Nambo akanaŵe kwigalikwa kwinani ŵapele malajisyo ga ulamusi wa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu achinduna ŵaŵaasagwile ŵala.
kwaze kwaba lusuku akhutshulwa ngalo, esebalayile ngoMoya oNgcwele abaphostoli ayebakhethile;
3 Kwa moŵa alobaini pakumala chiwa chao, Che Yesu ŵaakopochele ŵanyawo sooni ni sooni achilosyaga kuti ŵaliji ŵajumi. Ŵanyawo ŵammweni nombejo ŵaŵechete nawo yankati Umwenye wa Akunnungu.
wazibonakalisa futhi kubo ephilile emva kokuhlupheka kwakhe ngobufakazi obunengi obuqinisekileyo, wabonwa yibo okwensuku ezingamatshumi amane, ekhuluma ngezinto ezimayelana lombuso kaNkulunkulu.
4 Katema kampepe paŵalyaga nawo ŵapele chilanga chi, “Nkasatyoka ku Yelusalemu, nambo ndindilile ntuuka walanjile Atati umwambilikene njisalaga ngani syakwe.
Kwathi ehlangene labo, wabalaya ukuthi bangasuki eJerusalema, kodwa balindele isithembiso sikaBaba, elasizwa ngami;
5 Pakuŵa che Yohana ŵabatisye ni meesi, nambo pangakaŵa moŵa ŵanyamwe chinchibatiswa ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.”
ngoba ngeqiniso uJohane wabhabhathiza ngamanzi, kodwa lina lizabhabhathizwa ngoMoya oNgcwele kungakadluli insuku ezinengi.
6 Nipele, achinduna paŵasongangene ni Che Yesu pamo ŵausisye, “Ambuje, ana katema kano ni pachimwauchisye sooni Ŵaisilaeli Umwenye?”
Kwathi sebebuthene bambuza bathi: Nkosi, uzabuyisela umbuso kuIsrayeli kulesisikhathi yini?
7 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Katema ni lyuŵa lya indu yo ili paasi pa ulamusi wa Atati ŵangu, ni ngaŵa masengo genu kumanyilila chiiŵe chakachi.
Wasesithi kubo: Kakusikho okwenu ukwazi izikhathi kumbe imizuzu ayimisileyo uBaba ngawakhe amandla;
8 Nambo pachantuluchile Mbumu jwa Akunnungu chinchipochela machili ni sooni chinchiŵa ŵaumboni ŵangu musi wa Yelusalemu ni mu ilambo ya Yudea yose ni Samalia natamuno kumbesi kwa chilambo.”
kodwa lizakwemukela amandla, esefikile phezu kwenu uMoya oNgcwele; njalo libe ngabafakazi bami eJerusalema kanye layo yonke iJudiya leSamariya, njalo kuze kube semkhawulweni womhlaba.
9 Paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo, Che Yesu ŵajigalikwe kwinani akuno ŵanawose achinnolechesyaga, liunde lyaunichile ni ŵanyawo nganiŵaona sooni.
Kwathi esetshilo lezizinto, wakhutshulwa bekhangele, leyezi lamsusa emehlweni abo.
10 Achinduna ŵala paŵaliji nkulolechesya kwiunde Che Yesu ali nkwaula, papopo ŵandu ŵaŵili ŵaŵawasile iwalo yeswela, ŵajimi nkuŵandikana nawo,
Bathi besajolozele ezulwini, esenyuka, njalo khangela, amadoda amabili ema labo elezembatho ezimhlophe,
11 ni ŵatite, “Ŵanyamwe ŵandu ŵa ku Galilaya, ana ligongo lyachi nkwima pelepa ndi nkulolechesya kwinani? Ŵele Che Yesu ŵajigalikwe kwinani kutyochela kukwenu chachiika sooni chisau intite pakwawona ali nkwaula kwinani.”
njalo athi: Madoda maGalili, limeleni lijolozele ezulwini? UJesu lo, osuswe kini wenyukiselwa ezulwini, uzabuya ngokunjalo ngendlela elimbone esiya ngayo ezulwini.
12 Nipele achinduna ŵala ŵaujile ku Yelusalemu kutyochela ku chikwesya cha Miseituni, chichaliji pachiŵandi ni musi wo chisau ni lwendo lwa kilomita jimo.
Basebebuyela eJerusalema bevela entabeni ethiwa ngeyoMhlwathi, eseduze leJerusalema, ummango wohambo lwesabatha.
13 Paŵaiche mmusi ŵajinjile mu chuumba cha penani chiŵatamaga, nombewo ŵaliji che Petulo ni che Yohana ni che Yakobo ni che Andulea ni che Filipo ni che Tomasi ni che Batolomayo ni che Matayo ni che Yakobo mwanagwao che Alufayo ni che Simoni jwakuŵilanjikwa Selote, ligongo ŵaliji jwakumenyanila chilambo chakwe ni che Yuda mwanagwao che Yakobo.
Kwathi sebengenile, benyukela endlini ephezulu, lapho ababehlala khona, uPetro loJakobe loJohane loAndreya, uFiliphu loTomasi, uBartolomewu loMathewu, uJakobe kaAlfewu loSimoni umZelothi, loJudasi kaJakobe.
14 Ŵanawose wo pamo ni achakongwe ŵampepe pamo ni che Maliamu achikulugwe Che Yesu ni achapwakwe, ŵaliji nkusongangana pamo kupopela kwa ntima umo.
Bonke laba baphikelela bengqondonye emkhulekweni lekuncengeni, kanye labesifazana loMariya unina kaJesu, njalo labafowabo.
15 Pa moŵa go ŵajimi che Petulo pasikati ja ŵakukulupilila achinjakwe ŵaŵasongangene, waliji mpingo wa ŵandu mia moja ni ishilini.
Kwathi ngalezonsuku uPetro wasukuma phakathi kwabafundi, kwakulexuku labantu ndawonye elalingaba likhulu lamatshumi amabili, wathi:
16 Che Petulo ŵatite, “Ŵakukulupilila achinjangu, yaŵajilwe Malembelo ga Akunnungu gamalile. Kalakala Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵaŵechete kwa kang'wa ji che Daudi, che Daudi ŵalondwele nkati che Yuda, juŵaalongwesye aŵala ŵandu ŵaŵankamwile Che Yesu.
Madoda bazalwane, kwakumele ukuthi lumbhalo ugcwaliswe, uMoya oyiNgcwele awukhuluma ngaphambili ngomlomo kaDavida ngoJudasi, owayengumkhokheli walabo abambambayo uJesu,
17 Che Yuda ŵaliji jumo jwetu pakuŵa ŵasagulikwe ni Che Yesu tupanganye masengo pamo nawo.”
ngoba wayebalwe kanye lathi, njalo wemukela isabelo salinkonzo.
18 Ngunda wasumichikwe kwa mbiya siŵasipatile che Yuda kwa ligongo lya kusinonyela mbiya sya chigongomalo. Ni ŵagwile mwelemo, ŵapapwiche ni matuumbo gakwe gose gakopweche.
Lo-ke wathenga isiqinti ngomvuzo wobubi, wawa ngekhanda waqhekezeka phakathi, lemibilini yakhe yonke yachitheka.
19 Ni ngani ja chiwa chi che Yuda jamanyiche kwa ŵanawose ŵaŵatemi ku Yelusalemu, nipele ngunda wo waŵilanjikwe mchiŵecheto chao Akelidama, malumbo gakwe, “Ngunda wa Miasi.”
Njalo kwaziwa yibo bonke abakhileyo eJerusalema, saze sabizwa lesosiqinti ngolimi lwakibo ngokuthi iAkeldama, okuyikuthi iSiqinti segazi.
20 Che Petulo ŵatite, “Pakuŵa ilembekwe mu chitabu cha Sabuli kuti, ‘Pakutama pakwe paŵe masame ni anapagwe mundu juchatame mwelemo.’ Sooni ilembekwe kuti, ‘Masengo gakwe ga kwimilila atole jwine.’
Ngoba kulotshiwe egwalweni lweziHlabelelo ukuthi: Umuzi wakhe kawube lunxiwa, njalo kungabi khona ohlala kuwo; lokuthi: Omunye kathathe ubuphathi bakhe.
21 “Kwapele, ikuŵajilwa asagulikwe mundu jumo mwa ŵandu ŵaŵajesile noweji katema kose Ambuje Che Yesu paŵajendagajendaga pamo noweji,
Ngakho kumele ukuthi kulawomadoda ayehamba lathi kuso sonke isikhathi lapho iNkosi uJesu yayingena njalo iphuma phakathi kwethu,
22 kutandila katema che Yohana paŵabatisyaga mpaka lyuŵa lila paŵajigalikwe Che Yesu kwinani kutyochela kukwetu. Jwelejo aŵe jwa umboni pamo ni uweji nkati kusyuka ku Che Yesu.”
kusukela ebhabhathizweni lukaJohane, kwaze kwaba lusuku akhutshulwa ngalo kithi, omunye wabo kabe ngumfakazi kanye lathi wokuvuka kwakhe.
23 Pelepo ŵakolasile meena ga ŵandu ŵaŵili, che Yusufu jwakuŵilanjikwa che Balisaba pane akuŵilanjikwa che Yusto ni jwine che Matia.
Basebemisa ababili, uJosefa othiwa nguBarsaba, othiwa futhi nguJustusi, loMathiyasi.
24 Nipele ŵapopesile achitiji, “Ambuje, alakwe ŵakujimanyilila mitima ja ŵandu wose, sambano ntulanjile jwapi mwa ŵaŵili ŵa jumunsagwile alakwe,
Basebekhuleka besithi: Wena Nkosi, wena owaziyo inhliziyo zabo bonke, tshengisa kulaba ababili oyedwa, omkhethileyo,
25 kuti ajigale lipesa lya masengo ga unduna uŵaulesile che Yuda ni kwaula kuŵaŵajilwe.”
ukwemukela isabelo kulinkonzo lobuphostoli, uJudasi aphambuka kuso, ukuthi aye endaweni engeyakhe.
26 Ni ŵatesile gudugudu ni gudugudu jila jangwilile che Matia, nipele che Matia ŵaŵalanjikwe pamo ni achinduna kumi na moja ŵala.
Basebebapha inkatho yabo; lenkatho yadla uMathiyasi, wasebalwa kanye labaphostoli abalitshumi lanye.
