1 Nake Paũlũ agĩkũũrĩra athuuri a Kĩama kĩu maitho akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ariũ a Baba, nĩndungatĩire Ngai ndĩ na thamiri ĩtarĩ ũcuuke nginya mũthenya wa ũmũthĩ.”
Pawulo wakalangisisya basinkuta mpawo wakati, “Bakwesu, ime ndakapona kunembo lya Leza amoyo wangu woonse mubotu kuyoosikila sunu.”
2 Nake Anania mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, agĩatha andũ arĩa maarũgamĩte hakuhĩ na Paũlũ mamũringe kanua.
Ananiyasi mupayizi mupati wakalayilila aabo bakayimvwi kubbazu lyakwe kuti bamuume kumulomo.
3 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Paũlũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee rũthingo rũrũ rũhakĩtwo mũnyũ mwerũ, we nĩwe ũkũringwo nĩ Ngai! Ũikarĩte hau ũnduĩre ciira kũringana na watho, no wee ũkaregana na watho, ũgaathana atĩ ningwo!”
Mpawo Pawulo wakati kulinguwe, “Leza ulawuma nduwe, iwe yobulambo butubulukide. Ukkalilide kundibeteka kumalawu na, pesi ulayilila kuti nduumwe, chitali mumulawu?
4 Nao andũ arĩa maarũgamĩte hakuhĩ na Paũlũ makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Anga nĩũkũũmĩrĩria kũruma mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene?”
Aabo bakayimvwi mpawo bakaamba kuti, “Mbomubo na mbotukila mupayizi mupati wa Leza?”
5 Nake Paũlũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ariũ a Baba, ndikũmenyete atĩ ũcio nĩwe mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene; nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘Ndũkanaarie ũũru igũrũ rĩa mũnene wa andũ anyu.’”
Pawulo wakaamba kuti, “Teendazi pe nobakwesu kuti ngomupayizi mupati. Nkaambo kulilembedwe, Tokoyoowambula bubi aatala amweendelei wabantu bako.”
6 Na rĩrĩ, Paũlũ aamenya atĩ amwe ao maarĩ Asadukai, na arĩa angĩ Afarisai, akĩanĩrĩra Kĩama-inĩ kĩu, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ariũ a Baba, niĩ ndĩ Mũfarisai, na njiarĩtwo nĩ Mũfarisai. Ndĩraciirithio nĩ ũndũ wa kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro gĩakwa gĩa kũriũkio kwa arĩa akuũ.”
Aawo Pawulo naakabona kuti imwi nkamu yabantu bakali ba Sajusi mpawo bamwi bakali ba Falisi, wakaambuula ajwi pati nkali munkuta wati, “Bakwesu, mebo ndimu Falisii, ndimwana waba Falisii, nkaambo kakuti ndaabulangizi bwakubuka kubafu, nchenchicho nchendookubetekwa.”
7 Rĩrĩa oigire ũguo, gũkĩgĩa na ngarari gatagatĩ ka Afarisai na Asadukai, nakĩo kĩũngano kĩu gĩkĩamũkana.
Nakaamba oobo kwakaba kukazyania aakati kaba Falisi aba Sajusi, mpawo nkamu yakaanzaana.
8 (Asadukai moigaga gũtirĩ ũriũkio, na gũtirĩ araika, o na kana maroho, no Afarisai nĩmetĩkĩtie maũndũ macio mothe.)
Nkaambo ba Sajusi bati taakwe kubuka kubafu, taakwe bangelo alimwi taakwe myuuya, pesi ba Falisi balazizumina zyoonse eezyo.
9 Gũkĩgĩa na ngũĩ nene, nao arutani a watho amwe arĩa maarĩ Afarisai makĩrũgama na makĩaria megũmĩire mũno, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ tũtirona ũũru wa mũndũ ũyũ. Ĩ kũngĩkorwo nĩ roho kana mũraika ũmwarĩirie?”
Mpawo kwakaba kuyooma kupati, bamwi balembi bamulawu balikubbazu lyaba Falisi, bakiimikila kabakazya kabati, “Taakwe bubi pe mbotujana mumwaalumi ooyu. Ani kuti muuya naakuti mungelo nguwaakambuula kuli nguwe?”
10 Nacio ngarari ikĩneneha mũno, o nginya mũnene wa mbũtũ akĩigua guoya nĩkuona ta Paũlũ angĩtarũrangwo tũcunjĩ nĩo. Agĩatha mbũtũ cia thigari ciikũrũke, imweherie harĩo na hinya, na imũtware nyũmba ya thigari.
Nikwakaba kuyooma kupati, mupati wabasilumamba wakayoowa kuti Pawulo balamukwamuma, aboobo wakalayilila basilumamba kuti bayinke aansi bakamubweze changuzu kuzwa kuli basinkuta amweete kusisikene.
11 Ũtukũ ũrĩa warũmĩrĩire, Mwathani akĩrũgama hakuhĩ na Paũlũ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wĩyũmĩrĩrie! O ũguo ũheanĩte ũhoro wakwa gũkũ Jerusalemu, noguo ũkaũheana kũu Roma.”
Busiku bwakatobela mwami wakiima kubbazu lyakwe mpawo wati, “Utayoowi, nkaambo mbuli mbwakandipeda bukamboni mu Jelusalema, mbubo mboyoondipeda bukamboni aku Loma.”
12 Rũciinĩ rũrũ rũngĩ, Ayahudi makĩgĩa na ndundu na makĩĩhĩta mwĩhĩtwa matikaarĩe kana manyue matooragĩte Paũlũ.
Nebwakacha, bamwi baJuda bakayungana balibika munsi lyachikonke, kabati tabakoolya na kunywa chikntu mane bamujaye Pawulo.
13 Andũ arĩa maathugundĩte ndundu ĩyo maarĩ makĩria ya mĩrongo ĩna.
Bakalikwiinda makumi aane baalumi bakapanga jungwe eeli.
14 Magĩthiĩ kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na athuuri makĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ nĩtwĩhĩtĩte mwĩhĩtwa wa kwaga kũrĩa kĩndũ kana kũnyua nginya tũũrage Paũlũ.
Bakayinka kubapayizi bapati akubaalu bembungano bakwaamba kuti, “Twaanga chikonke chipati kuti tutalyi chintu ado tumujaye Pawulo.
15 Na rĩrĩ, inyuĩ mũrĩ hamwe na Kĩama gĩa Athuuri ũriai mũnene wa mbũtũ amũrehe mbere yanyu, mwĩtuĩte ta mũrenda gũtuĩria wega ũhoro wa ciira wake. Ithuĩ nĩtwĩhaarĩirie kũmũũraga atanakinya haha.”
Aboobo, lino basinkuta abakumbile zilimumulawu kuli silutwe wabasilumamba bamweete kulindiswe, kube aanga kuli nchoyanda kumvwisisisya kumulandu wakwe. Swebo tulilibambilide kumujaya katanasika aano.
16 No rĩrĩa mwanake wa mwarĩ wa nyina na Paũlũ aaiguire ũhoro wa ithugunda rĩu, agĩthiĩ nyũmba ya thigari akĩĩra Paũlũ.
Pesi mwana mulombe wamuchizi wa Pawulo wakamvwa kuti balimubawatilide, mpawo wakanjila mukati mwakabede Pawulo wakumwaambila.
17 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Paũlũ agĩĩta ũmwe wa anene a thigari igana rĩmwe, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Twara mwanake ũyũ kũrĩ mũnene wa mbũtũ; arĩ na ũndũ arenda kũmwĩra.”
Pawulo wakayita umwi wabasilumamba bamwaanda wati, “Bweza mulombe ooyo umutole kuli Silutwe wabasilumamba nkaambo uli aachakwaambwa. “
18 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũnene ũcio akĩmuoya, akĩmũtwara kũrĩ mũnene wa mbũtũ. Mũnene ũcio wa thigari igana rĩmwe akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Paũlũ, ũrĩa muohe nĩandũmanĩire anjĩĩra ndeehe mwanake ũyũ kũrĩ we tondũ arĩ na ũndũ arenda gũkwĩra.”
Eelyo Silutwe wabasilimamba bamwaanda wakabweza mulombe akumweeta kumupati wabasilumamba mpawo wamwaambila kuti, “Pawulo musungwa wandiita kulinguwe akundikumbila kuti njete mulombe ooyu kulinduwe. Ulachakwaamba kulinguwe.
19 Mũnene ũcio wa mbũtũ akĩnyiita mwanake ũcio guoko, akĩmũtwara keeheri-inĩ, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ atĩa ũrenda kũnjĩĩra?”
Mupati wabasilumamba wakamujata wamutola kubusena busisikene mpawo wakamubuzya wati, “Niinzi nchoyanda kundaambila?”
20 Nake mwanake ũcio akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ayahudi nĩmaiguanĩire makũũrie ũmarehere Paũlũ nĩguo arũgame mbere ya kĩama rũciũ, metuĩte ta marenda gũtuĩria ũhoro wake wega.
Mulombe wakati, “BaJuda bazuminana kuti kukukumbila kuti uyete Pawul ijuunza kunkuta, kakubanga bayanda kumvwisisisya obootu obootu mulandu wakwe.
21 Ndũgetĩkĩre ũguo marenda, tondũ andũ makĩria ya mĩrongo ĩna ao mamuoheirie njĩra-inĩ. Nĩmehĩtĩte mwĩhĩtwa wa kwaga kũrĩa kana kũnyua nginya mamũũrage. Na rĩrĩ, nĩmehaarĩirie, metereire wĩtĩkĩre ihooya rĩao.”
Pesi utabazuminini nkaambo kuli baalumi biinda makumi one bamubwatilide munzila. Bakalimbika muchikonke chakuti tabakolya nanka kunywa chintu mane do bamujaye. Kwalino balindide biyo kuzumininwa anduwe.”
22 Nake mũnene ũcio wa mbũtũ akĩĩra mwanake ũcio athiĩ, na akĩmũkaania, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndũkeere mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ atĩ nĩũnginyĩirie ũhoro ũcio.”
Mpawo mupati wabasilumamba wakamuleka mulombe ooyo weenda nakamana kumulayilila kuyi, “Utaambili muntu kuti wandaambila zintu eezi.”
23 Mũnene ũcio wa mbũtũ agĩcooka agĩĩta anene aake eerĩ a thigari igana rĩmwe akĩmaatha atĩrĩ, “Haarĩriai gĩkundi gĩa thigari magana meerĩ, na thigari mĩrongo mũgwanja iria ithiiaga ihaicĩte mbarathi, na thigari magana meerĩ iria ithiiaga ikuuĩte matimũ, nĩguo mathiĩ Kaisarea thaa ithatũ cia ũtukũ.
Mpawo wakiita bapati babili babasilumamba bamwaanda wabaambila kuti, “Mubunganie mbasilumamba bali myaanda yobile balibambile kuyoosika ku Kkayisalia, abali makumi musanu aababili bama basimabbiza, abali myaanda yobile basimasumu. Mulanyampuka muwola lyatatu lyamansiku.”
24 Na ningĩ mũhaarĩrie mbarathi cia gũkuua Paũlũ atwarwo kũrĩ Felike ũrĩa barũthi hatarĩ na ũgwati.”
Wakambaambila alubo kuti babambe bamnyama mbatabelesye Pawulo akumutola katabililikide kuli elekisi mweendelezi wchilikiti.
25 Agĩcooka akĩandĩka marũa ũũ:
