Unsiki ughuo untua u Herode akagholosia uluvoko lwa mwene kuvamonga vala vano vihuma kukipugha ulwakuti vavapumusie.
2 Wasebulala uJakobe umfowabo kaJohane ngenkemba.
Akam'buda u Yakobo unyalukolo ghwa Yohana ni bamba.
3 Esebonile ukuthi lokhu kuyawathokozisa amaJuda, waqhubeka wabamba uPetro laye (njalo kwakuzinsuku zesinkwa esingelamvubelo);
Ye alolile kuuti ava Yahudi vikela isio, akankola naju Pettrokange. Ulu lulilya amasiki agha makate aghasita kilule.
4 esembambile laye wamfaka entolongweni, wamnikela kumaviyo amane alamabutho amane ukuze amlinde, eqonde ukumusa ebantwini emva kwephasika.
Ye an'kolile, akamponia mu ndinde pe akavika ifipugha fine fya vasikari ulwakuti vamulolelaghe, alyale ihuvila kuntwala kuvanhu yekikilile ikimike kya pasaka.
5 Ngakho uPetro wagcinwa entolongweni; kodwa umkhuleko oqhubekayo wenziwa libandla ngaye kuNkulunkulu.
U Petro akabukua mundinde, looli inyifunyo sikavombua ni ngufu ni kipugha vwimila vwa mwene kwa Nguluve.
6 Kwathi uHerodi esezamkhupha, ngalobobusuku uPetro wayelele phakathi kwabebutho ababili, ebotshwe ngamaketane amabili; labalindi phambi komnyango babegcine intolongo.
Ikighono yekikiale u Herode nalutile kukumumia, ikilo ijio akaghonile pakati na Kate pa vasikali vavili kumo akungilue na manyololo ghavili, navaloleli pavulongolo pa muliango vakava vilolela indinde.
7 Njalo khangela, ingilosi yeNkosi yema, lokukhanya kwakhanyisa ekamelweni; yasitshaya uPetro ehlangothini, yamvusa isithi: Sukuma ngokuphangisa. Asesiwa amaketane akhe ezandleni zakhe.
Lolagha, u nyamola ghwa Mutwa nakalingi akamumia nu lumuli lukamulika nkate. Akantova u Petro muluvafu na pikunsisimula akati, “Sisimuka ng'aning'ani.” apuo amanyororo ghoni ghano akakungilue ghakavopoka mumavoko gha mwene.
8 Ingilosi yasisithi kuye: Bhinca, ubophe amanyathela akho. Wasesenza njalo. Yasisithi kuye: Yembatha isembatho sakho, ungilandele.
U munyamola akambula, “Fwala Amanda ghako na fifilato fyako.” U Petro akavimba vulevule. U Munyamola akam'bula, “fwala umwenda ghwako pe umbingililaghe.”
9 Wasephuma wayilandela; njalo wayengazi ukuthi kuliqiniso okwenziwa yingilosi, kodwa wayecabanga ukuthi ubona umbono.
Apuo u Petro akambingilila u Munyamola akahuma kunji. Nalyakitang'inie kind kilyavombilue nu Munyamola kuuti sa kyang'ani. Akahwanagha ighonela injosi.
10 Njalo sebedlulile abalindi bokuqala labesibili, bafika esangweni lensimbi, elokuya emzini, elabavulekela ngokwalo; basebephuma bahamba umgwaqo waba munye; njalo ingilosi yahle yamtshiya.
Ye akiling'inie ikilolelo ikilongosi ni kyavuvili vakafika palilyingo ilya kyuma ilya kwingilila kuluta kulikaja, likadinduka lyene vwimila vwa mwene. Vakahuma mulikaja kunji vakika mum'pulo, nakalingi u Nyamola akamuleka.
11 Kwathi uPetro, eseqaqabukile, wathi: Khathesi sengisazi ngeqiniso ukuthi iNkosi ithumile ingilosi yayo, yangikhulula esandleni sikaHerodi lakukho konke okulindelwe yisizwe samaJuda.
U Petro ye itang'inie, akati, “Lino nitike kuuti Mutwa amwomwile u Munyamola ghwa mwene ulwakuti anyimie mumavoko gha Herode, namuhuvilo sa vanhu vooni ava muvu Yahudi.”
12 Kwathi esenanzelele waya endlini kaMariya unina kaJohane othiwa futhi nguMarko, lapho okwakuhlangene khona abanengi bekhuleka.
Ye akagwile isi, akaluta kunyumba ja Mariamu ung'ina wawa Yohana juno ghwe Marko; Avakilisite vinga valyakong'anile vikufunya.
13 Kwathi uPetro eseqoqodile esivalweni sesango, incekukazi encane yeza ukulalela, uRoda ngebizo,
Ye ahodisie kumulyango ughwa kisighililo, u-mbombi jumo uminja juno itambulivua Roda akisa kudindula.
14 kwathi isilazi ilizwi likaPetro, kayivulanga isango ngenxa yentokozo, kodwa yagijima yangena yabika ukuthi uPetro umi phambi kwesango.
Ye akaguile lisio lya Petro, nu lukelo akakunua kudindula umulyango; pa uluo, akakimbilila nkate mu kyumba; nakuvavula kuuti u Petro imile kuvulongolo ku mulyingo.
15 Kodwa bathi kuyo: Uyahlanya. Kodwa yaqinisisa ukuthi kunjalo. Basebesithi: Yingilosi yakhe.
Apuo, vakajova kwa mwene, “Uve ulinyalukwale” looli akakangasia kuuti sakyang'ani ghwe mwene. Vakati “Ujuo ghwe Munyamola ghwa mwene.”
16 Kodwa uPetro waqhubeka eqoqoda; sebevulile bambona, basanganiseka.
Looli u Petro akajigha ifidudusia, ye vadindwile umulyango, vakamwagha vakadegha kyingo. U Petro akavanyamasia nu luvoko Kimie Kimmie pe akavavula ndavule u Mutwa amumisie kuhuma mundinde akati,
17 Wasebaqhweba ngesandla ukuze bathule, wabalandisela ukuthi iNkosi imkhuphe njani entolongweni, wathi: Bikelani uJakobe labazalwane lezizinto. Wasephuma waya kwenye indawo.
“Vavule isi u YakoboYakobo na vanyalukolo va mwene.” Apuo pe akavuka kuluta ku vunge.
18 Sekusile, kwaba khona isiphithiphithi esingesincinyane phakathi kwebutho, ukuthi wayesehlelwe yini uPetro.
Pano kukava mwisi, lukava lusukunalo mun'kate muva sikali, kuhumilanila na kino kihumile kwa Petro.
19 Kwathi uHerodi esemdingile engamtholi, wabuzisisa abalindi, walaya ukuthi basuswe bayebulawa. Wasesuka eJudiya wehlela eKesariya wahlala khona.
U Herode ye amulondile nalyambweene akavaposia avaloleli pe akalaghila vabudue. Akaluta kuhuma kuvu Yahudi kuhuma kuvu Kaisaria pe akikala kukuo.
20 Njalo uHerodi wayebathukuthelele abeTire labeSidoni; basebesiza kuye bengqondonye; sebevumelene loBlastusi induna yekamelo lokulala lenkosi, bacela ukuthula, ngoba ilizwe labo lalifunzwa ngelenkosi.
U Herode alyale ni ng'alasi vwimila vwa vaanhu ava Tiro ni Sidonia. Vakaluta palikimo kwa mwene. Vakava nikimanyani nu Blasto untangili ghwa Ntua, kuuti avatange. Kange vakasuma ulutengano, ulwakuva iisi jave jilyaplilue ikyakulia kuhuma mu iisi ja Ntua.
21 Njalo ngosuku olumisiweyo uHerodi wembatha isembatho sobukhosi, wasehlala esihlalweni sokwahlulela, wenza inkulumo kubo.
Ikighono kinokilyavikilue u Herode akafwala amenda agha kitua napikukala pakitengo ikyamwene ikya vutua, pe akavadalikila.
22 Abantu basebememeza besithi: Yilizwi likaNkulunkulu njalo kayisilo elomuntu.
anhuAvanhu vakajeghela, “Ili lye lisio lya Nguluve nambe nalisio lya munhu!”
23 Njalo yahle yamtshaya ingilosi yeNkosi, ngoba kanikanga udumo kuNkulunkulu; wasedliwa zimpethu, waphela.
Nakalingi u Nyamola akantova, ulwakuva nalyampelile u Nguluve ulwimiko; akalivua namatekenya akafua
24 Kodwa ilizwi likaNkulunkulu lakhula landa.
Looli ilisio lya Nguluve likakula na kukwilana.
25 UBarnabasi loSawuli basebebuya bevela eJerusalema, sebeqedile inkonzo, babuya beloJohane laye othiwa futhi nguMarko.
U Sauli nu Barnaba ye vakwisisie imbombo jivanave vakavuka pala vakagomoka ku Yerusalemu, vakantola nu Yohana juno ilitavua ilyakuholua ghwe Marko
