36 Sina ha vavali kuya vuyenda munzira, vava kezi ha menzi; mu Enuki chati, “Vone, hena menzi hanu; chizi chini kanina kuku kolovezwa?”
Zvavakanga vachifamba nomugwagwa, vakasvika pakanga pane mvura saka muyunaki akati, “Tarirai, heino mvura. Chingandikonesa kubhabhatidzwa chiiko?”
37 Linu mu Etopiya cha laya i kochikara ku zimana.
Uye Firipi akati, “Kana uchitenda nomwoyo wako wose, zvinogoneka.” Iye akapindura akati, “Ndinotenda kuti Jesu Kristu ndiye Mwanakomana waMwari.”
38 Chiva yenda hasi mumezi, bonse Filipi ni muenuki, imi Filipi cha mukoloveza.
Akarayira kuti ngoro imiswe. Ipapo vose vari vaviri, Firipi nomuyunaki vakapinda mumvura, Firipi akamubhabhatidza.
39 Hava zuvuka hanze ya menzi, Luhuho lwa Simwine chi lwa hinda Filipi; mu enuki kena ava muvoni hape, mi ava yendi mwi nzira yakwe na sangitwe.
Vakati vabuda mumvura, Mweya waShe wakatora Firipi pakarepo, uye muyunaki haana kuzomuonazve, asi akafamba munzira yake achifara kwazvo.
