Nakazwa kukumwanga, wakamubikka muntolongo wamutula kuli basikulinda ntolongo bane kuti bamulinde, walikuyanda kumweeta kubantu kukumana kwa Pasika.
5 Bhai, a Petili bhali nnigelesha, bhandunji bha a Nnungu gubhatumbililenje kwaajuga a Nnungu.
Aboobo Pita wakalijiswi muntolongo, pesi inkombyo zyabasikumukombela kuli Leza, zyakendelela anembo muchikombelo.
6 Shene shilosho a Elode bhakanabhe kwaakopoya a Petili kulugwinjili, a Petili gubhagonile pakatipakati ja ashimanjola bhabhili, bhalibhatabhilwe mindondolo jibhili na bhalinda bhalinginji muulinda pa nnango gwa ligelesha.
Kumansiku ngawo Helodi katana mutola kukubetekwa Pita wakalilede akati kabasilumamba babili, kaangidwe amakketani aabili mbubonya basikumulinda kabali kunembo amulyango wentolongo, balikkede kabalinda intolongo.
7 Shangupe malaika jwa Bhakulungwa gwajimi tome na bhenebho, shilangaya shikulangayaga nnigelesha mula. Malaika jwa a Nnungu akwaapalamulaga a Petili mmbalati alinkuti, “Nnjabhule shangu!” Pala pepala mindondolo jibhatabhilwe mmakono jila jikukutukaga na shigwilile pai.
Amubone, mutumwa wa Leza wakalibonia kulinguwe, alimwi mumuni wakalibonia muntolongo. Wakawuma Pita kumwi kubbazu wamubusya akumwambila kuti, “Buka akufwambana nkabela makketani anzyakangidwe zyakazwa mumaboko.
8 Malaika jwa a Nnungu gwabhabhalanjile, “Mwitabhe nshipi gwenu, nng'wale ilatu yenu. Gubhatendile nnepeila. Malaika gwabhabhalanjile nng'wale likoti lyenu nngagule.”
Mungelo wakati kulinguwe, buka uliyabike, uzwate alimwi usame insangu zyako. Pita wakachita mbubo. Mungelo mbwakamba kuti zwata ijansi lyako unditobele.
9 A Petili gubhankagwile palanga, ikabheje bhakamumanyaga yatendwaga naka malaika jula kuti puyaliji ya kweli, pubhaganishiyaga bhanaagamila.
Aboobo Pita wakatobela mungelo akwinka awe aanze. Taakazibe pe kuti eecho chakachitwa amungelo chakali chakasimpe. Wakayeya anga ulikubona chilengano.
10 Bhakapitanjeje shikundi sha ndandubho na sha bhili sha ulinda, gubhaikengenenje kunnango gwa itale gwa jinjilila kunnjini. Nnango gula ukwiugulaga guyene gubhakopokenje palanga. Gubhalongenenje mumpanda gumo, kashokope malaika jula akwaalekega a Petili jikape.
Nibakayinda amulindizi wantolongo mutanzi awabili, bakasika amulyango wabutale unjila mumunzi mpawo wakalijula awulikke. Bakabbuda aanze bakunuka amugwagwa nkabela mungelo wakamusiya mpawawo alikke.
11 Penepo a Petili gubhang'amwile itendeshe ila gubhashite, “Nnaino nimumanyi kweli kuti Bhakulungwa bhashikuntuma malaika jwabho kwiya njoya mmakono ga a Elode na gowe gubhalolelangaga Bhayaudi.”
Awo Pita nakalibona lwakwe, wakabambila kuti, “Lino ndaziba kasimpe kuti mwami Leza watuma mungelo wakwe akundangununa kukuboko kwa Helodi akuli zyonse ba Juda nzibakali kulangilila.
12 Bhakagamanyeje genego gubhapite mpaka kwa a Malia anyinabhabho a Yowana bhashemwaga a Maliko. Na mwenemo bhandunji bhabhagwinji bhashinkuimananga nkujuga Nnungu.
Nakabona echi wakaya kung'anda ya Maliya banyina Johani uyitwa kutegwa Makki, oko bantu biingi nkubakabungene kabalo kukomba.
13 A Petili gubhaolishiye pannango, ntumishi jumo jwankongwe lina lyakwe Loda gwapite pilikanishiya.
Nakakonkomona akkoma lyamulyango, musimbi, mulanda utegwa Loda wakasika kukuvwiila.
14 Mwali jula akamanyeje kuti lilobhe lila lya a Petili gwainonyele kwa kaje. Jwangaugula nnango gula, ikabhe gwabhutwishe kukwalugulilanga kuti a Petili pubhali pannango.
Nakaziba ijwi lya Pita, kwinda mukubotelwa, wakakachilwa kujula kkoma, kwinda kuti ajule mulyango, wakachijana kubweda mung'anda, wakwamba kuti Pita ulimvwi amulyango.
15 Gubhammalanjilenje mwali jula, “Ushikola shalubha!” Ikabheje jwalakwe gwapundile kukong'ondela kuti kweli. Gubhammalanjilenje bhalinkutinji, “Jwenejo malaika jwabho.”
Mpawo bakati kulinguwe, “Wasuwigwa,” nikuba boobo wakakatila kuti mbubo mbundaamba. “Bakati mungelo wakwe.”
16 A Petili gubhapundile kuolishiya. Kungai gubhaaugulilenje nnango, bhakaabhonanjeje gubhakanganigwenje.
Pesi Pita wakinkilila anembo akukonkomona, alimwi nibakajula kkoma, bakamubona bakagamba.
17 A Petili gubhaagolosheyenje makono nkupinga bhapumulanje, gubhatalashiye Bhakulungwa shibhashite kwashoya nnigelesha. Kungai gubhaalugulilenje bhapelekanje ntenga kwa a Yakobho na ashaapwabho bhananji, gubhajabhwile kwenda mmbali jina.

19 A Elode gubhaamulishe bhaloleywe, ikabheje bhangaapatanga. Kwa nneyo gubhaamulishe ashimanjola bhala bhabhuywanje na bhabhulagwanje. Kungai a Elode gubhajabhwile ku Yudea, gubhapite tama ku Kaishalia.
Helodi nakamana kumuyandula akutamubona, wakabuzya kuli basikulinda ntolongo akulayilila kuti bajayigwe. Wakakumuka kuzwa ku Judiya kaya ku Sizaliya mpawo wakakukkala nkuko.
20 A Elode bhashinkwatumbalilanga bhandu bha ku Tilo na ku Shidoni, ikabheje bhalabhonji gubhaatumilenje bhantenga. Gubhapanjilenje mbwiga na a Bhulashito bhaliji bhakulungwa bha nyumba ja bhakulungwa. Kungai gubhaajendele a Elode kukwajuga kubhe na ulele. Pabha shilambo shabhonji kubhakulupalilangaga kupata shalya kushilambo sha bhakulungwa a Elode.

21 Lyubha libhatumbilile, a Elode bhali bhawalile ngubho yabho ya upalume, gubhatemi pa shitengu shabho sha upalume gubhatandwibhe kwaalungushiyanga bhandunji.
Mubuzuba bwakabambidwe Helodi wakasama chizwato chabwami mpawo wakakkala aachuno chabwami; wakamba achakubambila.
22 Bhandunji bhala gubhajobhelenje nkwalumbilila bhalinkutinji, “Lyeneli lilobhe lya a nnungu, nngabha lika mundu.”
Bantu bakoompolola, “Eeli ndijwi lyakaleza pepe lyamuntu!”
23 Shangupe malaika jwa Bhakulungwa akwaagwiyaga pai a Elode kwa ligongo lyangapinga kwaapa a Nnungu Ukulungwa gwabho. Gubhaligwilwe na mbiu, gubhawile.
Achakufwambana munelo wamwami wakamuma, nkambo takapa bulemu pe kuli Leza; wakaligwa aziyokaansi elyo wakafwa.
24 Lilobhe lya a Nnungu gulipundile kushuma.
Pesi ijwi lya Leza lyakayunizizigwa akuvula.
25 A Bhanabha na a Shauli bhakamaliyanjeje liengo lyabhonji, gubhabhujilenje kukopoka ku Yelushalemu, gubhaatolilenje a Yowana bhashemwaga a Maliko gubhalongene nabhonji.
