O den yedi ba: Bi nan b atisi yi mi laa batisime? Bi den guani ki yedi o: Jan yaa batisima.
4 UPhawuli wathi, “Ubhaphathizo lukaJohane lwalulubhaphathizo lokuphenduka. Watshela abantu ukuthi bakholwe kulowo owayezakuza ngemva kwakhe, esitsho ukuthi kuJesu.”

5 Sebekuzwile lokhu babhaphathizelwa ebizweni leNkosi uJesu.
Laa maama po bi den ga mi batisima o Diedo Jesu yeli po.
6 UPhawuli esebeke izandla zakhe phezu kwabo uMoya oNgcwele wehlela kubo, bakhuluma ngendimi njalo baphrofitha.

7 Babengamadoda ayengaba litshumi lambili bebonke.
Bikuli den bua ki pundi piiga n jaba lie.
8 UPhawuli wangena esinagogweni wakhuluma ngesibindi khona okwezinyanga ezintathu, echaza okusuthisayo ngombuso kaNkulunkulu.
Polo den caa li balimaama bangima dieli nni ki maadi ba leni li papaali ŋali ŋmaalita, ki moandi ke ban tuo ki ga U Tienu diema maama fuuli.
9 Kodwa abanye babo baba yiziqholo; bala ukukholwa, bakhuluma kubi obala ngeNdlela. Ngakho uPhawuli wabatshiya. Wathatha abafundi wasuka wayahlangana labo baxoxisana nsuku zonke esikolweni sikaThiranu.
Ama bi nitianba pala den juagi, ke baa tuo ki ga ke omaama tie moanmoani. Bi go den sugidi oDiedo Jesu sanŋoadima bi niba kuli nintuali. O den paadi leni ba ki ta bihoadikaaba, ki bangi ba daali kuli yua n yi Tilanusa cogidieli nni.
10 Lokhu kwaqhubeka okweminyaka emibili, kwaze kwathi wonke amaJuda lamaGrikhi ayehlala kulesosifunda sase-Ezhiya alizwa ilizwi leNkosi.
Polo den caa li kani daali kuli ki maadi leni bi niba hali binalie, yaaba n ye Asi nni kuli, jufinba leni Gilekinba kuli den gbadi oDiedo maama.
11 UNkulunkulu wenza imimangaliso engajayelekanga ngoPhawuli,
U Tienu den teni ke Polo tiendi leni onii bi niba siiga ya bancianma npia li pakili.
12 izifinyo lamathawulo okwakuthintiswe kuye kwakusiwa kwabagulayo bahle basile emikhuhlaneni yabo lemimoya emibi iphume kubo.
Baa bi yaa den taa ya tiayiekaadi, yaaka, ya cabimu n sii Polo ki maani ayiama po kali bi yiani n kagidi bi po. Mu cicibiadimu mo den ña mun ye yaaba yaa niinni.
13 Amanye amaJuda ayebhoda exotsha imimoya emibi azama ukubiza ibizo leNkosi uJesu kulabo ababelamadimoni. Ayesithi, “Ngebizo likaJesu uPhawuli atshumayela ngaye, ngikulaya ukuthi uphume.”
Jufinba bi tianba den ye ki goadi ki deli mu cicibiadimu bi niba kani. Bi den moandi ki baa taa oDiedo Jesu yeli ki maadi mu cicibiadimu danba ki yedi mu cicibiadimu. kelima Jesu yeli po, Polo n wangi yua yaa maama yeni, n yedi yi yin ña bi naa niba niinni.
14 Ababesenza lokhu ngamadodana ayisikhombisa kaSkeva umphristi omkhulu wamaJuda.
Yaaba n den tiedi yeni den tie bi copadicianba yudanba siiga yendo ke bi yi o Sefa, yaa bi jabe, bonbilele.
15 Kwelinye ilanga umoya omubi waphendula wathi, “UJesu ngiyamazi, loPhawuli ngiyamazi, kodwa lina lingobani na?”
Ki cicibiadiga den guani ki yedi ba: N bani Jesu, n bani Polo mo n tie yua, ama yi mo tie ŋmenba?
16 Kwasekusithi indoda eyayilomoya omubi yabeqela, yabehlula bonke. Yabatshaya okuzwayo baze baphuma endlini bebaleka benqunu njalo besopha igazi.
Lani ki cicibiadiga n ye yaa joa niinni yeni den bibi ba ki paadi bikuli leni upaalu, ki poagiliba ke bi ñani li dieli yeni niinni ki poagilipoagili ki sani mubila.
17 Kwathi lokhu sekuzwakele kumaJuda lamaGrikhi ayehlala e-Efesu, onke ethuka ngokwesaba, ibizo leNkosi uJesu laselihlonitshwa kakhulu.
Jufinba leni Gilekinba yaaba n ye Efesa kuli den gbadi li laabaalo ke ti jawaandi cuo bi kuli hali bonciala. O Diedo Jesu yeli den baa ti kpiagiciandi.
18 Abanengi balabo abasebekholwa beza baphumela egcekeni, bevuma iziphambeko zabo.
Yaaba n den tuo ki daani siiga boncianla den kpendi ki togidi bi niba nintuali ban den tieni yaala.
19 Abanengi ababehlahlula baletha ndawonye imiqulu yabo bayitshisa obala. Bathi sebehlolile izindleko zaleyomiqulu kwabonakala kungaba ngamadrakhima azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amahlanu.
Bi siiga iñoagibiadi danba boncianla den cuani bi tila ki sia ha mi fantama nni bi niba kuli nintuali. Bi den coadi atila yeni kuli dunga ki sua ke li bua ki pundi kujapiena tudapiimu (5o ooo)
20 Ngaleyondlela ilizwi leNkosi landa kabanzi njalo lakhula laba lamandla.
Yeni yaapo oDiedo maama den kpedi ki pugidi leni upaalu leni ugbamamnu.
21 Ngemva kwakho konke lokhu sekwenzakele, uPhawuli wazimisela ukuya eJerusalema, ezadlula eMasedoniya lase-Akhayiya. Wathi, “Nxa sengike ngaya khona, kuzamele ngethekelele laseRoma.”
Lani n den tieni ki pendi, Polo den jagi ki bili ke obaa tagini ki poandi Maseduana leni Akayi ki gedi Jelusalema. O den yedi: N yaa gedi laa diema kuli li tie tiladi min yuandi ki gedi ki ban le Loma moko.
22 Wathuma ababili abasizi bakhe eMasedoniya, uThimothi lo-Erastu, yena esasele okwesikhatshana esifundeni sase-Ezhiya.
O den soani otodikaaba siiga nibalie, Timote leni Elasita, Maseduana po, wani oba den go kali dana waamu Asi nni.
23 Ngalesosikhathi kwaba lokudungeka okukhulu ngeNdlela.
Laa yogunu ti yanyangiciandi den fii Efesa po kelima oDiedo sanŋoadima po.
24 Umkhandi wesiliva owayethiwa nguDemetriyasi owayesenza izikhonzelo zokukhonzela u-Athemisi ngesiliva, wayengenisa imali ezwayo kubakhandi.
O maano den ye ki yi Demetilusa, ki duadi Atemisa jaandieli nannana leni ŋanjilifa, ki kuadi ki teni ke otuosoanba den baa libaali boncianla ku maagu yeni po.
25 Wababizela ndawonye kanye lezinye izisebenzi zemisebenzi efananayo wathi kubo, “Madoda, liyakwazi ukuthi sizuza imali enengi ngomsebenzi lo.
O den yini otuonsoanba leni yaaba n taa ki tuuni ku maagu tuonli kuli, ki yedi: Yikuli bani ke ti baali ña ku maagu na niinne.
26 Liyabona njalo liyezwa ukuthi uPhawuli lo usenze abantu abanengi bakholwa njalo uzadukisa abantu abanengi lapha e-Efesu lakuso sonke isifunda sase-Ezhiya. Uthi yena onkulunkulu ababunjwe ngumuntu kabasibo onkulunkulu lakancinyane.
Yi nan laa ki go gbadi Polo yeni n tiedi yaala. O teni ke bi niba boncianla ki yaadi, baa go hua ibuli, laa tie nekanba Efesa niinni bebe ka, li bua ki yaa tie yene Asi nni kuli.
27 Kulengozi-ke yokuthi kakuyikuba ngumsebenzi wethu kuphela ozalahlekelwa libizo lawo elihle, kodwa lethempeli likankulunkulukazi omkhulu u-Athemisi lizadunyazwa, laye unkulunkulukazi ngokwakhe, yena okhonzwa kusosonke isifunda sase-Ezhiya lasemhlabeni wonke, uzakwemukwa ubukhosi bakhe.”
Lan baa cuani yaa pakili ki tie ke bi niba baa fali ti tuonli yaali n tie loagu bebe ka; Li baa teni ke ti bupua Atemisa kan go yaa tie li ba kuli. Lani mo Asi yaaba leni handuna niinni yaaba kuli kan go yaa jigini o, kelima okpiagidi baa bodi.
28 Bathi bekuzwa lokhu bafuthelana ngokuzonda, bahle bamemeza besithi, “Mkhulu u-Athemisi wama-Efesu!”
Ban den gbadi laa maama, bi pala den beni ke cili ki tangi ki tua: Efesa yaaba bupua Atemisa pia ti kpiagidi.
29 Masinyane nje idolobho lonke laphithizela. Abantu badumela uGayiyasi lo-Aristakhasi ababe ngabaphelekezeli bakaPhawuli, bengabeMasedoniya, babahudulela enkundleni yemidlalo bonke bayakuthi cwi khona.
U dogu yaaba kuli yama den yagi. Bi den cuo Gayusa leni Alisitaka, Polo yieninlieba, Maseduana yaaba yeni ki fuli ba ki jaligi ki gedini ba utaankaanu kani.
30 UPhawuli wayefuna ukuzithela emphakathini, kodwa abafundi bamalela.
Polo den bua ki gedi li kani ki maadi leni li nitaanli yeni, ama bi ŋoadikaaba den yie opo.
31 Labanye abaphathi besifunda, ababengabangane bakaPhawuli, labo bamthumela ilizwi bathi angaqali ukuyavela enkundleni yemidlalo.
Baa Asi bali danba siiga bi tianba yaaba n den tie Polo danlinba den soani okani ki tundi o ke wan da gedi li taanli yeni po.
32 Kwakungasaqondakali enkundleni: Abanye babeklabalala besitsho lokhu, abanye labo besitsho okunye. Abantu abanengi babevele bengazi lokuthi babelandeni lapho.
Li nitaanli yeni siiga bi ne den tangi ban bua maama ke bi ne moko tangi ban bua maama bi niba kuli yama den yagi, bi niba boncianla mo ki den bani ban taani yaala yaapo.
33 AmaJuda afuqela u-Alekizanda phambili esithi kawakhulumele. Waphakamisa isandla ukuwathulisa ukuze achasise kuhle indaba ebantwini.
Bi nitianba den ñani Alesanda ku niligu siiga, ke jufinba den tudi o ke wan sedi bi kuli nintuali. O den diiba onuu ke ban sedi ki cengi ke obua ki maadi leni ku niligu.
34 Kodwa athi ngokunanzelela ukuthi wayengumJuda, onke ahlaba umkhosi kanyekanye okwaphose kwathatha amahola amabili, besithi, “Mkhulu u-Athemisi wama-Efesu!”
Ama ban den bandi ke o tie jufi, bikuli den taani niali yendu ki tangi ki tua Efesa bupua Atemisa pia ti kpiagidi, hali ke libua ki pundi leedimunalie.
35 Unobhala wedolobho walithulisa ixuku wathi, “Madoda ase-Efesu, akusikho yini ukuthi umhlaba wonke uyakwazi ukuthi idolobho lase-Efesu yilo elingumlondolozi wethempeli lika-Athemisi omkhulu, kanye lomfanekiso wakhe owehla uvela ezulwini?
Lani wani Efesa dogu yudaano duogili den teni ke li nitaanli suo, ke o yedi ba: Efesa yaaba ŋme ye kaa bani ke udociamu Efesa kubi Atemisa yaa bupua n pia ti kpiagidi yaa budieli, leni onannanli yaali n den ñani tanpoli po ki baa?
36 Pho-ke njengoba lokhu kuyinto engaphikiswayo, thulani lingenzi izinto zamawala.
Lan ki pia niama yeni, li hani yin jiini yi yama ki da tieni li ba leni mi yanjegibima.
37 Selilethe amadoda la lapha, kodwa wona engagqekezanga emathempelini kumbe athuka unkulunkulukazi wethu.
Kelima yi cuani bi naa jaba yaaba n ki pia tagili ba baa suni yi budiena nni li ba, baa sugi yi bupua mo.
38 Ngakho nxa uDemetriyasi lalabo akhanda labo belensolo loba ngobani, imithethwandaba ivuliwe, njalo labahluleli bakhona. Bangamangala.
Lani wani li ya tie ke Demetilusa leni otuonsoanlieba pia mi maama leni nilo ba, ti buudi dana ye, bi bujiaba mo ye. Ban yini bi yaba ti buudi laa dana.
39 Nxa kukhona njalo okunye elifuna ukukutsho, kakuyethoniswa ngomthetho enkundleni.
Yi ya go pia matoama mi baa jia yaa taanli npia li sanu kani.
40 Njengoba kunje nje sisengozini yokubekwa icala lokuvusa isiyaluyalu ngenxa yezehlakalo zalamuhla. Kungenzeka lokho sizakwehluleka ukuchaza imbangela yalesisiphithiphithi, ngoba ngempela kungekho sizatho.”
Li baa fidi ban ti jaligi ti ki yedi ke dinli fuugune tie bali yiema, kelima ti kan fidi ki waani tin taani yaala yaapo.
41 Eqeda kukhuluma lokhu, wawuchitha umhlangano.
wan den yedi yeni, o den cabi li nitaanli.
