1 Ikatula kina uApolo nai wakatula ku Korintho, uPaulo akakila matumbi a migulya nu kupika kisali nika Efeso, hangi wakahanga amanyisigwa kituunga kung'wanso.
Zvino zvakaitika, Aporo achiri paKorinde, Pauro wakati agura nemativi ekumusoro akasvika paEfeso; akawana vamwe vadzidzi,
2 uPaulo aka atambuila, “Itii, ai mumusingiiye uNg'wau Ng'welu nai muhuiie?” Aka mutambuila, “Aa, shanga ai kuhumile ga nukija kutula uNg'wau Ng'welu.”
akati kwavari: Makagamuchira Mweya Mutsvene here pamakatenda? Zvino vakati kwaari: Asi hatina kutongonzwa kana kune Mweya Mutsvene.
3 uPaulo akaligitya, “Itungili unyenye ai mogigwe uli?” Akaligitya, “Mu wogigwa nuang'wa Yohana.”
Zvino akati kwavari: Ko makabhabhatidzwa mune zvipi? Zvino vakati: Murubhabhatidzo rwaJohwani.
4 Uugwa uPaulo akasukiilya, “uYohana ai wogilye ku wogigwa nua kila itunu. Aka aila i antu awo kina atakiwe kumuhuiila uyo naiza uzeepembya zeyakilaa nuanso, kuiti, uYesu.
Zvino Pauro wakati: Johwani zvirokwazvo wakabhabhatidza nerubhabhatidzo rwekutendeuka, achiudza vanhu kuti vatende kuna iye anouya shure kwake, ndiko kuti, kuna Kristu Jesu.
5 Antu nai akija u lukani ulu, akogigwa ku lina nila Mukulu uYesu.
Zvino vakati vanzwa, vakabhabhatidzwa muzita raIshe Jesu.
6 Hangi ikatula uPaulo nai wakaikila i mikono akwe migulya ao, uNg'wau Ng'welu wakiza migulya ao nu kandya kitunta ku ntambu nu kulota.
Zvino Pauro wakati aisa maoko pamusoro pavo, Mweya Mutsvene akauya pamusoro pavo; vakataura nendimi, ndokuporofita.
7 Jumla ao ai akoli agoha apikiie ikumi na abiili.
Zvino varume vese vainge gumi nevaviri.
8 uPaulo ai ulongoe mi itekeelo akaligitya ku ukamatiku ku matungo a myeli itaatu. ai utuile utongee u witambuliyi nu kualuta i antu kutula imakani natulikile nu utemi nua ang'wa Itunda.
Zvino wakapinda musinagoge akataura akashinga, kwemwedzi mitatu achiparidza achipwisa pazvinhu zveushe hwaMwari.
9 Kuiti i Ayahudi auya ai atulaa ilugoha hangi ni shanga ijaa, ai andilye kutambula ubii kutula i nzila ang'wa Kristo ntongeela iumbi. Uugwa u Paulo ai ulekenukile ni enso hangi aka abagula i ahuiili kahelu ni enso. Nu ng'wenso ai wandilye kuligitya kila luhiku mu kianda nika Tirano.
Asi vamwe vakati vachiomesa moyo uye vasingatendi, vachitaura zvakaipa pamusoro penzira iyo pamberi pechaunga, akabva kwavari akatsaura vadzidzi, akaparidza zuva rimwe nerimwe muchikoro cheumwe Tiranosi.
10 Iki ai kilongolekile ku myaka ibiili, ku lulo ihi nai atulaa ikii mu Asia ai igule u lukani nila Mukulu, ihi i Ayahudi ni Ayunani.
Zvino izvi zvakaitika kwemakore maviri, zvekuti vese vakange vagere paAsia vakanzwa shoko raIshe Jesu, vese VaJudha neVaGiriki.
11 Itunda ai watulaa ukituma makani makulu ku mikono ang'wa Paulo,
Mwari ndokuita mabasa esimba asina kujairika nemaoko aPauro,
12 kina ga ni alwae ai akomigwe, ni ahing'wi ai a apumile, itungo nai ahoile u mukako nu ng'wenda nai ipumile mu muili nuang'wa Paulo.
zvekuti kunyange kuvarwere kwaiiswa micheka yekumeso kana mafasikoti zvaibva pamuviri wake, hosha dzikabva kwavari, nemweya yakaipa ikabuda kwavari.
13 Kuiti ai amoli Ayahudi akuhiilya a hing'wi ai alongoe muhinzo kukiila i kipango ni kanso, ai alitumie i lina nilang'wa Yesu ku nsoko a utumili nuao akola. Aze atambuila awo nai akete i ahing'wi; Azeligitya, “Kumulagiilya mupume mu lina nilang'wa Yesu naiza uPaulo ukimutanantya.”
Zvino vamwe VaJudha vambeyi vadzingi vemweya yakaipa, vakaidza kudana zita raIshe Jesu pamusoro pevaiva nemweya yakaipa, vachiti: Ndinokupikirai naJesu Pauro waanoparidza.
14 Nai itumile aya ai atulaa ana mupungati ang'wa kuhani nu Mukulu nua Ayahudi, uSkewa.
Zvino paiva nevamwe vanakomana vanomwe vaSikevha muJudha mupristi mukuru vaiita izvi.
15 Ahing'wi aka asukiilya, “uYesu kumulingile, nu Paulo kumulingile; Kuiti unyenye ingi a anyenyu?”
Mweya wakaipa ndokupindura ukati: Jesu ndinomuziva, naPauro ndinoziva nezvake; asi imwi ndimwi vana ani?
16 Uyo u hing'wi mukati a muntu waka aputila i akuhiilya a hing'wi nu kuakilya i ngulu nu kua kua. Uugwa akamanka kupuma ito ilo aze ikipwi nu kuaaligwa.
Zvino munhu mweya wakaipa wawaiva paari akavakwakukira, akavakurira, akavakunda, zvekuti vakatiza mumba umo vasina nguvo vakuvadzwa.
17 Ikani ili likakumuka ku ihi. Ayahudi ni Ayunani, naza ikiee uko ku Efeso. Akatula nu woa nangaluu, ni lina nila Mukulu likakila ku kuligwa.
Zvino izvi zvikazikanwa kune vese VaJudha neVaGirikiwo vakange vagere paEfeso; kutya ndokuvawira vese; zita raIshe Jesu ndokukudzwa.
18 Hangi, idu a ahuiili ai azile hangi akihanguila hangi azepumilya intendo nimbi nai itumile.
Zvino vazhinji vevakange vatenda vakauya, vakareurura, nekurondedzera mabasa avo.
19 Idu ai atulaa akituma ukiliki akilingiila i mbugulu niao, akaisonsa ntongeela a kila muntu. Itungo nianso nai aka allya insailo nia intu nianso ai yatulaa ipande magana a nzogu makumi a taano niya mpia.
Zvino vazhinji vevaiita zveun'anga vakaunganidza mabhuku pamwe vakaapisa pamberi pevese; ndokuverenga mutengo wawo, zvino vakawana masirivheri zvuru makumi mashanu.
20 Iti gwa ulukani nula Mukulu likakondaniila ku ugali nangaluu mu ngulu.
Naizvozvo shoko raIshe rakakura nesimba rikakunda.
21 ni ang'wa Paulo kukondaniilya u uailya nuakwe uko ku Efeso, Ung'wau Ng'welu aka atongeela kulongola ku Yerusalemu ku kiila ku Makedonia ni Akaya; Akaligitya, Ze yakilaa kutula kung'wanso, intakile ki henga ni Rumi ga.”
Zvino izvi zvakati zvapera, Pauro wakazvipira mumweya, ambogura nepaMakedhonia neAkaya, kuenda kuJerusarema, achiti: Shure kwekuva kwangu ikoko, ndinofanirawo kunoona Roma.
22 uPaulo waka alagiilya ku Makedonia i amanyisigwa akwe a biili, uTimotheo nu Erasto, naza atulaa amuaiiye. Kuiti nuanso mukola wakasiga ku Asia ku itungo.
Zvino akatumira kuMakedhonia vaviri vevaimushandira, Timotio naErasto, iye akagara muAsia kwenguva.
23 Itungo lilo ai ipumiie minyomo ukulu uko ku Efeso kutula inzila iyo.
Zvino nenguva iyoyo nyonga-nyonga isati iri diki ikavapo pamusoro penzira iyo.
24 Mutyani ung'wi i lina nilakwe Demetrio, naiza uzipilye i a dudu nia mpia ni itunda uDiana, ai wiletaa usuluja ukulu ku atyani.
Nokuti umwe, wainzi Dhemetrio, mupfuri wesirivheri, waiita zvitembere zvaDhiana zvesirivheri, waiuisa mubairo usati uri mudiki kumhizha;
25 Uugwa akailingiila i atyani nia mulimo nuanso nu kuligitya, “Akulu, mulingile kina mu usulsja uwu usese kingilya mpia idu.
wakadziunganidza pamwe nevamwe vebasa rakadaro, akati: Varume, munoziva kuti nebasa iri tine upfumi hwedu.
26 Mihengile nu kija kina, shanga udu apa ku Efeso, ila pakupi Asia ihi, uyu uPaulo wa apemaa nu kuapiula i antu idu. Ukuligitya kina kutili i itunda naiza azipigwe ku mikono.
Zvino munoona nekunzwa kuti pasati pari paEfeso chete, asi panenge paAsia yese, Pauro uyu wakagombedzera nekutsausa chaunga chikuru, achiti vakaitwa nemaoko havasi vamwari.
27 Hangi shanga udu ikoli ulugu kina usuluja nuitu ukutula shanga utakiwe hangi, kuiti ga ni itekeelo nilang'wa itunda nu musungu niiza mukulu uDiana uhumile kuholwa kutula mugila anga ndogoelyo. Hangi aza uzee huma ga nukulimilya u kulu nuakwe, nuanso naiza ku Asia ni ihi limukulyaa.”
Zvino hazvisi izvi chete kuti chikamu chedu chisvike panjodzi yekuzvidzwa, asi netembere yamwarikadzi mukuru Dhiana ichaitwa chinhu pasina neukuru-kuru hwake huchaderedzwa, iye Asia nenyika yese wavanonamata.
28 Nai akija aya, ai izuiwe ni ikuo nu kuzogolya, azeligitya, “uDiana nua ku Efeso ingi mukulu,”
Zvino vakati vachizvinzwa vakazara nekutsamwa, vakadanidzira vachiti: Mukuru Dhiana weVaEfeso!
29 Kisali kihi kikizula minyomo, ni antu akamanka palung'wi mukati a kianda nika miginso, aka a amba ia nyamuhinzo auya nu Paulo, Gayo nu Aristariko, naiapumile ku Makedonia.
Zvino guta rese rakazadzwa nenyonga-nyonga; vakamhanyira nemoyo umwe panhandare, vakakweva Gayo naArisitako VaMakedhonia, vaperekedzi vaPauro.
30 uPaulo ai uloilwe kingila miumbi nila antu, kuiti i amanyisigwa ai amugiiye.
Zvino Pauro akada kupinda muchaunga, vadzidzi havana kumutendera.
31 Ga ni, ang'wi a afisa nia mukoa nu Asia naza atuile ahumbauya akwe akamutwaile lukani ku ngulu nu kumulompa waleke kingila mu kianda nika miginso.
Uye nevamwe vevakuru veAsia, vaiva shamwari dzake, vakatuma shoko kwaari, vachikumbira zvikuru kwaari kuti arege kuzvipinza panhandare.
32 Ang'wi a antu ai atulaa akuligitya i kintu iki ni auya ikani ilo, ku nsoko iumbi nila antu ai latulaa lahalinkanilwa. Idu ao shanga ai ahumile ga nu kulinga ku niki ai azile palung'wi.
Zvino vamwe vakadanidzira chimwe vamwe chimwe; nokuti ungano yakange yanyonganiswa, uye vazhinji vasingazivi zvavakaunganira.
33 Ayahudi akamuleta uIskanda kunzi iumbi nila antu nu kumuika migulya ntongeela a antu. uIskanda akapumya ilingasiilyo ku mukono nuakwe nu kupumya uganulwa ku antu.
Zvino vakabudisira Arekisandiro kunze kubva muchaunga, VaJudha vachimusundira mberi. Zvino Arekisandiro akaninira neruoko, achida kuzvidavirira kuvanhu.
34 Kuiti nai akalinga kina ung'wenso ingi Muyahudi, ihi akazogolya ku luli lung'wi ku itungo nila saa ibiili, “uDiana ingi mukulu nua Aefeso.”
Asi pavakaziva kuti muJudha, inzwi rimwe rakamuka kune vese, vakadanidzira maawa anenge maviri vachiti: Mukuru Dhiana weVaEfeso!
35 Ze yakilaa u talishi nua kisali ku likilaja i umbi, ai uligitilye, “Unyenye agoha nia ku Efeso, ingi nyenyu ni shanga ulingile kina i kisali iki nika Efeso ingi musununja nui itekeelo ni lang'wa Diana nu mukulu ni iyo ipisha nai igwie kupuma kilunde?
Zvino munyori wakati anyaradza vanhu akati: Varume veEfeso, nokuti munhu ndeupi aripo asingazivi kuti guta reVaEfeso ndiro muchengetedzi wetembere yamwarikadzi mukuru Dhiana newechakawa kubva kudenga.
36 Kihenga gwa kina i makani aya shanga ahumikile, kutakiwe kutula nu ulyuuku hangi leki kitumi kihi ku ukau.
Naizvozvo zvinhu izvi zvazvisingagoni kurambwa, munofanira kunyarara musingaiti chinhu nekumhanyirira.
37 Ku ndogoelyo muitangile i antu awa apa pi ibalaza naza shanga i ii itekeelo ang'wi shanga anya kumukuna itunda nuitu nu musungu.
Nokuti mauisa varume ava, vasiri makororo edzitembere kana vamhuri vamwarikadzi wenyu.
38 Ku lulo, anga ize uDametrio ni atyani niakoli palung'wi nu ng'wenso akete mitumbo ku muntu wihi, i mabalaza akoli ng'walyi ni aliwali amoli. Ni aletwe ntongeela a lukani.
Naizvozvo kana Dhemetrio nemhizha dzinaye vane mhosva neumwe, matare emhosva akazarurwa, nevatongi varipo; ngavakwirirane.
39 Kuiti anga ize u ewe udume kihi kutula makani ni mangiiza, akitung'wa mi ianza nila tai taai.
Asi kana muchitsvaka chimwe chinhu maererano nezvimwe zvinhu, zvingatemwa paungano iri pamutemo.
40 Ku tai kukoli mu ulugu nua kusigwa ibii kutula minyomo luhiku ulu. Kutili nsoko a ushapu uwu, hangi shanga kuutula nu uhumi nua kuganula.
Nokuti tiri munjodziwo yekupiwa mhosva yebongozozo ranhasi zvapasina chikonzero chatingapa nacho rondedzero yenyongano iyi.
41 Ze yakilaa kuligitya aya, aka asapatilya ai anyianza.
Zvino wakati ataura izvozvi, akaparadza ungano.
