1 Kwathi kufika usuku lwePhentekhosti, bonke babendawonye.
Lumbu ki Pantekoti bu kidedakana, babo bakutakana va kimosi.
2 Masinyane nje kwabakhona umsindo onjengokuvunguza komoya wesiphepho wehla uvela ezulwini, wagcwala indlu yonke ababehlezi kuyo.
Zimbukila biyoko bingolo biba ku diyilu banga vuka ki ngolo, bimana wasa mu nzo yoso yi baba.
3 Babona okwakungathi zinlimi ezingamalangabi omlilo ezehlukana zahlala komunye lomunye wabo.
Bosi minlaki mi mbazu mivasuka, miba monikina, mitelama va mbata mintu miawu.
4 Bonke bagcwaliswa ngoMoya oNgcwele, basebeqalisa ukukhuluma ezinye izindimi njengokwaneliswa kwabo nguMoya.
Batu boso bamana wala mu Pheve Yinlongo; ayi batona yolukazimbembo bankaka, boso Pheve Yinlongo kaba kuba yolukisila.
5 Ngalesosikhathi kwakuhlala amaJuda ayemesaba uNkulunkulu eJerusalema, evela kuyo yonke imibuso yomhlaba.
Bayuda bawombo baba kinzikanga Mina mi Nzambi baba mu zitsi zioso zi ntoto bayiza ku Yelusalemi.
6 Athi ngokuzwa umsindo lo, kwabuthana ixuku labantu bemangele ngoba omunye lomunye wabezwa bekhuluma ngolimi lwakhe.
Biyoko bina bu bitembakana, nkangu wu batu wukutakana ayi wusimina mu mona ti kadika mutu wulembo wa mu mbembo andi.
7 Ngokumangala okukhulu babuza bathi, “Kanti bonke laba abakhulumayo kabasimaGalile na?
Basimina buwombo ayi bakiyuvula bawu na bawu: —Tala, batu boso bobo bantuba basi ko basi Ngalili e?
8 Pho kungani omunye lomunye wethu ebezwa bekhuluma ngolimi lwethu na?
Vayi buevi, beto boso, tulembo wila kadika mutu mu yandi mbembo, yoyi kabutukila e?
9 AmaPhathiya, amaMede, ama-Elamu; izakhamizi zaseMesophothamiya, lezeJudiya leKhaphadokhiya, lePhontusi le-Ezhiya,
Bila vava vadi basi Palitesi, basi Medesi, basi Elami, ayi beto tumvuandanga mu Mezopotami, basi Yuda, basi Kapadose, basi Ponti, basi Azi,
10 leFirigiya lePhamfiliya, leGibhithe lezingxenye zeLibhiya eduze leKhureni; izethekeli ezivela eRoma
basi Filizi, basi Pamfili, basi Ezipite, basi zunga ki Libi kioki kifikimini ayi Silene, bosi beto basi Loma, tumvuandanga vava;
11 (amaJuda lamakholwa aphendukele enkolweni yesiJuda); amaKhrethe lama-Arabhu, sibezwa befakaza izimangaliso zikaNkulunkulu ngendimi zethu!”
Bayuda ayi banzenza bankaka zikituka Bayuda, basi Kelete, basi Alabi; tulembo kuba wi balembo samuna mambu manneni ma Nzambi.
12 Babedidekile bengelankani, babuzana bathi, “Kutshoni lokhu?”
Babo basimina ayi bayuvasana: “Diambu diadi mbi dinsundula e?”
13 Kodwa abanye benza inhlekisa ngabo bathi, “Banathe iwayini enengi bedlulisa.”
Vayi bankaka baba nseva, batuba: “A beno keti vinu bakololo!”
14 UPhethro wasesukuma labalitshumi lanye, waphakamisa ilizwi lakhe wakhuluma emphakathini wathi, “Bantu bakithi elingamaJuda, lani lonke eliseJerusalema, kahleni ngilichasisele lokhu; lalelisisani lokhu engikutshoyo.
Bosi Piela wutelama ayi kumi mvuala wumosi, wuvumbula mbembo, wuba kamba: —Beno basi Yuda ayi beno boso lumvuandanga mu Yelusalemi, bika luzaba diambu diadi ayi luteka matu mu mambu mama.
15 Amadoda la kawadakwanga njengokucabanga kwenu. Kuseselihola lesificamunwemunye nje ekuseni!
Batu baba basi kolo vinu ko banga bu lulembo yindudila bila tukidi kueto mu thangu yi vua yi nsuka.
16 Hatshi, lokhu yikho okwakhulunywa ngumphrofethi uJoweli ukuthi:
Vayi mambu mama mawu mambu mabikula mbikudi Yoweli:
17 ‘Ngezinsuku zokucina, uNkulunkulu uthi, Ngizathululela uMoya wami kubo bonke abantu. Amadodana lamadodakazi enu azaphrofitha, izinsizwa zenu zizabona imibono, lamaxhegu enu azaphupha amaphupho.
Nzambi wutuba ti: Tala mambu mela ba mu bilumbu bi tsuka: ndiela dukula Pheve ama Yinlongo mu batu boso, bana beno babakala ayi babaketo bela bikula, bamatoko meno mela mona zitsongolo, bosi biboba bieno biela lota zindozi.
18 Lasezincekwini zami, ezesilisa lezesifazane, ngizawuthulula uMoya wami ngalezonsuku, njalo bazaphrofitha.
Nyinga, mu bilumbu bina, ndiela dukula Pheve ama Yinlongo mu bisadi biama, bibaketo ayi bi babakala ayi bela bikula;
19 Ngizatshengisa izimanga ezulwini phezulu, lezibonakaliso emhlabeni phansi, igazi lomlilo lezikhatha zentuthu.
Ndiela vanga bikumu mu matuti, mu diyilu. Ndiela monisa bidimbu va mbata ntoto: Menga, mbazu ayi muisi;
20 Ilanga lizaphendulwa libe yibumnyama, lenyanga ibeligazi phambi kokuba kufike usuku olukhulu lukaThixo, olukhazimulayo.
thangu yela kituka tombi, bosi ngondi yela kituka menga. Mawu mambu mela monika tuamina lumbu ki Pfumu, lumbu kinneni ayi ki nkembo;
21 Njalo wonke obiza ibizo likaThixo uzasindiswa.’
ayi buela, woso mutu wela tela dizina di Pfumu wela vuka.
22 Bantu bako-Israyeli, lalelani lokhu: UJesu waseNazaretha wayeyindoda eyamiswa nguNkulunkulu kini, ngezimangaliso lezibonakaliso uNkulunkulu azenzayo phakathi kwenu ngaye, njengoba lina ngokwenu lisazi.
A beno basi Iseli, wanu mambu mama: Yesu muisi Nazaleti, mutu wowo Nzambi kalumonisa ayi kakikinina va meso meno mu bikumu, mu mambu manneni ayi mu bidimbu biobi Nzambi kavangila mu mioko miandi va khatitsikꞌeno, banga kuandi bu luzebi buawu
23 Umuntu lo wanikelwa kini ngecebo likaNkulunkulu ayelimisile langolwazi lokuzayo; njalo lina lincediswa ngabantu ababi, lambulala ngokumbethela esiphambanweni.
baluyekudila niandi boso bubela mayindu ma Nzambi ayi boso bubela lukanu lukakikanina. Beno lumbanda va dikulusi ayi lumvondisa mu mioko mi bankua masumu.
24 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wamvusa kwabafileyo, wamkhulula ebuhlungwini bokufa ngoba ukufa kwakungelamandla okumncindezela.
Nzambi wumfulukisa ayi wunkula mu mianga mi lufua bila lufua lusia ba kadi lulendo ko mu kunsimbidila.
25 UDavida wathi ngaye: ‘Ngayibona iNkosi iphambi kwami kokuphela. Njengoba isesandleni sami sokunene, angiyi kunyikinywa.
Bila Davidi wutuba mu diambu diandi: Minu ndimona mu zithangu zioso Pfumu ku ntualꞌama. Bila widi va koko kuama ku lubakala muingi ndibika nikunu.
26 Ngakho inhliziyo yami iyathaba lolimi lwami luyathokoza; umzimba wami lawo uzahlala ulethemba,
Diawu ntimꞌama wumona monina khini ayi ludimi luama lumona moni khini ayi nitu ama yela vundila mu diana dioso.
27 ngoba kawuzukungidela ukuba ngiye endaweni yabafileyo, njalo kawusoze wekele ongcwele wakho ukuthi abone ukubola. (Hadēs g86)
Bila wulendi yekula ko muelꞌama wusiala ku tsi yi bafua, ayi wulendi kikinina ko ti nitu yi kisadi kiaku kinlongo yi bola. (Hadēs g86)
28 Ungazisile izindlela zempilo; uzangigcwalisa ngentokozo phambi kwakho.’
Ngeyo wumbonisa zinzila zi luzingu. Bosi wela ku mbonisa khini yiwombo bu wela kumbengudila thalu aku.
29 Bazalwane, ngilitshela ngilesibindi ukuthi ukhokho uDavida wafa wangcwatshwa, njalo ithuna lakhe likhona khonapha kuze kube lamuhla.
A bakhomba ziama, bika ndilukamba mu kambu memata mu diambudi nkulu eto Davidi, niandi wufua ayi wuziku. Ziami kiandi kidinate lumbu kiaki.
30 Kodwa wayengumphrofethi, ekwazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayemthembisile ngesifungo ukuthi wayezabeka omunye wesizukulwane sakhe esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi.
Bu kaba mbikudi, ayi bu kazaba ti Nzambi wunlevila ndefi ti wela vuandisa va kundu kiandi ki kipfumu mutu wowo wela totukila mu nkunꞌandi,
31 Ngoba ebona okwakuphambili, wakhuluma ngokuvuka kukaKhristu kwabafileyo, ukuthi kazange atshiywe endaweni yabafileyo njalo umzimba wakhe kawukubonanga ukubola. (Hadēs g86)
buna niandi wukimuena ayi wuyolukila mfulukulu yi Klisto. Wutuba ti: kasia yekolo ko mu tsi yi bafua ayi nitu andi yisia bola ko. (Hadēs g86)
32 UNkulunkulu usemvusile uJesu lo waphila, thina sonke singofakazi balokho.
Yesu beni, Nzambi wumfulukisa. Beto boso tuidi bambangi mu diambu diodi.
33 Njengoba esekhutshulelwe ngakwesokunene sikaNkulunkulu, usamukele kuYise uMoya oNgcwele owathenjiswayo njalo usekuthulule lokho elikubonayo lelikuzwayo khathesi.
Bosi wutombolo mu diambu di vuanda va koko ku lubakala ku Nzambi, ayi, wutambula kuidi Tata Pheve Yinlongo yivanunu tsila; buna niandi wutembikisa mambu lulembo moni ayi lulembo wi.
34 Ngoba uDavida kenyukanga ukuya ezulwini, kodwa wathi, ‘INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: “Hlala ngakwesokunene sami
Bila Davidi kasia kuenda ku Diyilu ko, vayi niandi veka wutuba: Pfumu wukamba kuidi Pfumuꞌama: Vuandila va koko kuama ku lubakala,
35 ngize ngenze izitha zakho zibe yisinyathelo senyawo zakho.”’
nate ndiela mana tula bambeni ziaku zioso ku tsi malu maku!
36 Ngakho-ke, u-Israyeli wonke kaqiniseke ngalokhu: uNkulunkulu usenze uJesu lo elambethelayo waba yiNkosi loKhristu.”
Bika Iseli dioso dizaba mu bukiedika ti Yesu beni diodi lubanda va dikulusi Nzambi wunkitudi Pfumu ayi Klisto!
37 Abantu bathi bekuzwa lokhu bathinteka kakhulu ezinhliziyweni, bathi kuPhethro labanye abapostoli, “Bazalwane, senze njani na?”
Bu bawa mambu mama, mintima miawu miluala; diawu bayuvudila Piela va kimosi ayi bamvuala bankaka: —A bakhomba, a mbi tuvanga e?
38 UPhethro waphendula wathi, “Phendukani libhaphathizwe lonke, ebizweni likaJesu Khristu ukuze lithethelelwe izono zenu. Njalo lizakwamukela isipho soMoya oNgcwele.
Piela wuba vutudila: —Lubalula mavanga! Bika kadika mutu mu beno kabotama mu dizina di Yesu Klisto mu diambu di ndemvokolo yi masumu. Buna luela tambula dikaba di Pheve Yinlongo.
39 Isithembiso ngesenu labantwabenu labo bonke abakude, lesabo bonke iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu ezababiza.”
Bila tsila beni yidi mu diambu dieno, mu diambu di bana beno ayi mu diambu di baboso badi thama, babo bobo Pfumu eto Nzambi kela tela mbila.
40 Wabaxwayisa langamanye amazwi amanengi; njalo wabancenga wathi, “Zisindiseni kulesisizukulwane esonakeleyo.”
Piela wubuela kuba kamba diaka mambu mawombo muingi bawilukila ayi wuba kindisa ti: —Bika lukivukisa mu tsungi yayi yi mbimbi.
41 Labo abalemukelayo ilizwi lakhe babhaphathizwa, kwengezwa enanini labo mhlalokho abangaba zinkulungwane ezintathu.
Babo bobo bawilukila mambu ma Piela babotama. Mu lumbu kina nduka-nduka mili tatu zi batu zi buelama.
42 Bayikhuthalela imfundiso yabapostoli kanye lokudlelana, lokuhlephuna isinkwa lokukhuleka.
Buna bazingila ngolo mu landakananga malongi ma bamvuala, ayi mu kithuadi, mu ndiwulu dipha ayi mu zitsambulu.
43 Wonke umuntu wagcwala ukwesaba ngezimanga lezibonakaliso ezenziwa ngabapostoli.
Baboso bamona boma; bamvuala bavanga mambu manneni ayi bikumu.
44 Wonke amakholwa ayendawonye, ehlanganyela kukho konke.
Batu boso bawilukila baba kalanga va buangu kimosi ayi batula bima bioso mu kithuadi.
45 Athengisa izinto zawo lempahla zawo anika loba ngubani oswelayo.
Baba sumbisanga mintoto miawu ayi bima biawu ayi baba kabulanga kuidi batu babo boso bubela minkiza mi kadika mutu.
46 Insuku zonke aqhubeka ehlangana emagumeni ethempeli njalo ehlephuna isinkwa emakhaya awo esidla ndawonye ngezinhliziyo ezimhlophe lezithobekileyo,
Bilumbu bioso, mu kithuadi kimosi baba kutakananga mu Nzo Nzambi, baba dianga mapha mu zinzo ziawu, baba dianga bidia biawu mu khini ayi mu kukikulula koso.
47 edumisa uNkulunkulu njalo ethakazelelwa ngabantu bonke. Njalo iNkosi yengeza inani lawo insuku zonke ngalabo abasebesindisiwe.
Baba kembisanga Nzambi ayi batu boso baba zola. Kadika lumbu Pfumu wuba kuba buelanga batu bobo baba mvukanga.
