Imisebenzi 5
1 Kodwa indoda ethile uAnaniya ngebizo, loSafira umkakhe, bathengisa impahla,
Lino umwi mwalumi uutegwa Ananiyasi, nkali a Safila mwanakazi wakwe, bakawuzya chimpanzi chabuvubi,
2 yagodla entengweni, lomkakhe ekwazi, yaletha ingxenye ethile yayibeka enyaweni zabaphostoli.
alimwi wakabamba musule chimpanzi chamuulo wamali ( mwanakazi wakwe kabiyo wakalizizi ezi), alimwi wakeeta chimpanzi chazyo alimwi wakachibika kumawulu amu abatumwa.
3 Kodwa uPetro wathi: Ananiya, kungani uSathane egcwalise inhliziyo yakho, uqambe amanga kuMoya oyiNgcwele, njalo ugodle entengweni yesiqinti?
Pesi Pita wakati, “Ananiyasi, nkambonzi satani naazuzya moyo wako kuti ubeje ku Muuya Uusalala alimwi kuti ubambe musule chimpanzi chamuulo wamuunda?
4 Sisekhona besingesiso esakho, sesithengisiwe besingekho emandleni akho yini? Kungani ukuthi ubeke lesisenzo enhliziyweni yakho? Kawuqambanga amanga ebantwini kodwa kuNkulunkulu.
Niwalikusyaala nkawutawuziziwwe, tensi wakayimvwi kawuli wako, alimwi akuzwa nkawuli wawuzigwa, saa wakali munsi lyanuzu zyako? Nwani oyo wabika eyi milimo mumoyo wako? Teensi wabejela muntu pesi kuli Leza.”
5 Kwathi uAnaniya esizwa lamazwi, wawela phansi waphela; lokwesaba okukhulu kwehlela phezu kwabo bonke abazizwayo lezizinto.
Naakamvwa majwi aya, Ananiyasi wakawida aansi mpawo wayoya kwakumaninsizya, alimwi kuyoowa kupati kwakasika kuli boonse bakamvwa eezi.
6 Lamajaha asuka amgoqela asemthwalela ngaphandle amngcwaba.
Balombe bakanyampuka alimwi bamuvunilizya, alimwi bakamubweza alimwi bakumuvwikka.
7 Kwasekusithi sekungaba ngamahola amathathu kwedlule, lomkakhe wangena engakwazi okwenzakeleyo.
Nikwakiinda biyo otatwe mahoola, mwanakazi wakwe wakanjila, katezi kuti niinzi zyachitika.
8 UPetro wasemphendula wathi: Ngitshele ukuthi isiqinti lisithengise ngokungaka. Wasesithi: Yebo, ngokungaka.
Pita wakati kulinuwe, “Ndibuzye naanka mwawuzya muunda azeezi, “wakati, “Iyii, azeezi.”
9 UPetro wasesithi kuye: Kungani ukuthi livumelane ukulinga uMoya weNkosi? Khangela, inyawo zabangcwabe indoda yakho zisemnyango, lawe bazakuthwalela ngaphandle.
Mpawo Pita wakati kulinuwe, “Mbuubuli mbumwazuminana moonse kuti musunke muuya wa Leza? Bona mawulu abaalumi bavwikka mulumi wako ali amulyango, alimwi bayokubweza ayebo.”
10 Njalo wahle wawela phansi enyaweni zakhe, wasephela; lamajaha engena amfica esefile, asemthwalela ngaphandle amngcwaba eduze kwendoda yakhe.
Mpawo mpawo wakawida ansi kumawulu aakwe alimwi wakayoya kwakumaninsizya. Elyo baluumi nibakanjila, bakamujana nkafwide, alimwi bakamubweza alimwi bakumuvwikka kumbali lyamulumi.
11 Lokwesaba okukhulu kwehlela phezu kwebandla lonke, lakubo bonke abazizwayo lezizinto.
Kuyoowa kupati kwakasika akkati kayoonse imbungano alimwi aakati kaboonse aabo bakamvwa eezi.
12 Njalo ngezandla zabaphostoli kwenziwa izibonakaliso lezimangaliso ezinengi ebantwini; babenhliziyonye bonke ekhulusini likaSolomoni.
Zyingi zitondezyo alimwi azigambyo zyakalikuchitika akati kabantu kwiinda mumaanza abatumwa. Bakali antoomwe kumulyango wa Solomoni.
13 Kodwa kwabanye kwakungekho olesibindi sokuzihlanganisa labo, kodwa abantu babebahlonipha kakhulu;
Pesi takwe wabo wakaba aachiyandisyo chakuba antomwe ambabo; nikuba boobo bantu bakabalemeka.
14 njalo abakholwayo bengezelelwa banda eNkosini, amaxuku womabili amadoda labesifazana;
Kabiyo biingi basyomi bakali kuyungizizigwa ku Mwami, bantu biingi bechalumi mpawo abanakazi,
15 baze bathwalela phandle emigwaqweni abagulayo, basebebabeka ezinhlakeni lemacansini, ukuze kuthi lapho uPetro esiza ngitsho isithunzi sibasibekele abanye babo.
nkokuti bakali kubweza bachiswa muchisi alimwi babalazika aabulo amuzitobo, kuchitila kuti awo Pita nayosika, muzuzumbwe wakwe wayino wida alibamwi babo.
16 Njalo lamaxuku avela emizini ezingelezeleyo babuthana ndawonye eJerusalema, beletha abagulayo labahlutshwa ngomoya abangcolileyo, basiliswa bonke.
Mpawo bakasika kabiyo antomwe bantu biingi bazwa muchisi chilafwifwi a Jelusalema, nkabeeta bachiswa alimwi abaabo bajiswi aa myuya yamatombe, alimwi balikuponesegwa boonse.
17 Kwasekusukuma umpristi omkhulu labo bonke ababelaye abangabehlelo labaSadusi, bagcwala umona,
Pesi mupayizi mupati wakanyampuka, mpawo aboonse abo bakali anguwe ( aabo benkamu yama Sajusizi); alimwi bakazwa munyono
18 babadumela abaphostoli ngezandla zabo, basebebafaka esitokisini sabantu.
alimwi bakabika maanza aatala lyaba tumwa, mpawo babawala muntolongo yakazibinkene.
19 Kodwa ebusuku ingilosi yeNkosi yavula iminyango yentolongo yabakhupha yathi:
Elyo muchindi chamansiku mungelo wa Leza wakajula mulyano wentolongo alimwi wakabagwisya aanze, mpawo wakati,
20 Hambani, njalo lime likhulume ethempelini ebantwini wonke amazwi alimpilo.
“Mwiinke, mwime muntempele mpawo mwambule kubantu majwi woonse abuumi.”
21 Kwathi sebezwile, bangena ethempelini emadabukakusa, bafundisa. Kodwa kwasekufika umpristi omkhulu lalabo ababelaye, babizela ndawonye umphakathi labo bonke abadala babantwana bakoIsrayeli, bathumela entolongweni ukubaletha.
Nibakamvwa eezi, bakanjila muntempele nkakuli kwamba kucha mpawo bayiisya. Pesi mupayizi mupati wakasika mpawo ababo bakali anguwe, alimwi bakayita mulubeta antomwe, boonse bapati babantu bamu Izilayeli, mpawo babatuma kuntolongo kuti bakeete batumwa.
22 Kodwa kwathi abancedisi befika kababaficanga entolongweni; babuyela emuva babika,
Pesi bakapokola abo bakayinka tebakabajana pe muntolongo, mpawo bakaboola kukuzowamba,
23 besithi: Intolongo siyifice ivaliwe konke kuqinile, labalindi bemi phandle phambi kweminyango; kodwa sesivulile, phakathi kasificanga muntu.
“Twajana intolongo mbuli mbukwelede kazijalidwe kabiyo balindizi kabiimvwi amulyango, pesi nitwajula, twajana takwe pe ulimukati.”
24 Njalo kwathi umpristi lenduna yethempeli labapristi abakhulu bezwe lamazwi, badideka kakhulu ngabo, ukuthi lokhu kuzakuba yini.
Lino basilumamba bentempele antomwe abapayizi bapati nibakamvwa aya majwi, baka bulikilwa atala ambabo kuti mbobuli mbubanga balazwa kulinzizyo.
25 Kwasekufika omunye wabatshela wathi: Khangelani, amadoda ebeliwafake entolongweni ami ethempelini afundisa abantu.
Elyo umwi wakasika mpawo wabaambila, “Balumi aabo mbimwakabika mukkati kentolono balimvwi mukkati kantempele mpawo balikuyiisya bantu.”
26 Yasihamba induna labancedisi babaletha, kungeyisikho ngamandla, ngoba babesesaba abantu, ukuze bangakhandwa ngamatshe.
Eelyo silumamba wakiinka aamwi abakapokola, mpawo wababoozya musule, pesi kakutakwe kulwana, eelyo nkabayowede kuti balabatulula mabwe.
27 Sebebalethile babamisa phambi komphakathi. Umpristi omkhulu wasebabuza,
Nibaka beeta, baka bakkazika munsi ababetesi. Mupayizi mupati wakaba buzisisya, nkati,
28 esithi: Kasililayisisanga yini ukuthi lingafundisi ngalelibizo? Kodwa khangelani seligcwalise iJerusalema ngemfundiso yenu, liqonde ukwehlisela igazi lalumuntu phezu kwethu.
“Twalayilila ndinywe a mulawu kuti mutayiisyi muzina eeli, mpawo lino mwazuzya Jelusalema enjiisyo achiyandisyo chenu alimwi mwayeya akweeta bulowa bwamwalumi oyu atala lyesu.”
29 Kodwa uPetro labaphostoli baphendula bathi: Kumele ukulalela uNkulunkulu kulabantu.
Alimwi Pita abatumwa bakasandula, “Twelede kulemeka Leza kwinda muntu.
30 UNkulunkulu wabobaba bethu wamvusa uJesu, elambulala lina, limphanyeka esihlahleni.
Leza wabamataata wakabusya Jesu, oyo numwakajaya akumwanzika mumusamu.
31 Yena lo, uNkulunkulu wamphakamisa ngesandla sakhe sokunene, abe nguMkhokheli loMsindisi, ukunika uIsrayeli ukuphenduka lothethelelo lwezono.
Leza wakamunyampula kubbazu lyakuchilisyo kuti abe mwana wa Mwami mpawo amufutuli, kuti ape kusanduka ku Izilayeli, mpawo akulekelelwa kwazibi.
32 Njalo thina singabafakazi bakhe balezizinto, njalo loMoya oyiNgcwele, uNkulunkulu amnike labo abamlalelayo.
Ndiswe bakamboni bazeezi zintu, mpawo ngu Muuya Uusalala, oyo Leza ngwakapa kulibaabo bamulemeka.”
33 Kwathi sebezwile lokhu bathukuthela kakhulu, benza icebo lokubabulala.
Eelyo bazuluzi bamwi nibakamvwa eezi, bakanyema alimwi bakayanda kujaya batumwa.
34 Kwasekusukuma umFarisi othile emphakathini, uGamaliyeli ngebizo, umfundisi womlayo, ohlonitshwa yibo bonke abantu, walaya ukuthi bakhuphele phandle abaphostoli okwesikhatshana.
Pesi mufalisi uutegwa Gamaliyeli, muyiisyi wamulawu oyo wakalikulemekwa aboonse bantu, wakanyampuka mubazuluzi mpawo wakalayilila batumwa kuti bagwisigwe kwakiindi kanini.
35 Wasesithi kubo: Madoda maIsrayeli, ziqapheleni mayelana lalababantu, elizakwenza.
Mpawo wakati kulimbabo, “Nobaluumi bamu Izilayeli, amuswilizye loko kuli nzimwa zuminana kuti muchite kubantu aba.
36 Ngoba ngaphambi kwalezinsuku kwasuka uTewuda, esithi yena ngokwakhe ungumuntu, lahlanganyela laye inani lamadoda angaba ngamakhulu amane; wabulawa, labo bonke ababemlalela bachitheka baphela.
Nkambo musule amazuba aya, Tewudasi wakanyampuka nkali kuyanda kuba uumwi, mpawo bantu biini, basika myaanda iine, bakaba antomwe anuwe. Wakajayigwa, eelyo boonse abo bakali kumulemeka baka mwayisiwampawo kwakamana.
37 Emva kwakhe kwasuka uJudasi umGalili ensukwini zokubalwa, wadonsela abantu abanengi ngemva kwakhe; laye wabhubha, lalabo bonke ababemlalela bachitheka.
Nikwakazwa ooyu mwalumi, Judasi waku Galili wakanyampuka mumazuba akubalwa kwabantu mpawo wakachunzya kule abantu kuzwa kulinuwe. Alakwe wakajayigwa, mpawo boonse abo bakali kumulemeka bakamwayika.
38 Njalo khathesi ngithi kini: Dedani kulababantu, libayekele; ngoba uba lelicebo kumbe lumsebenzi ungowabantu, uzachitheka;
Lino ndamba kulindinywe, ikuti muye kule kuzwa kubantu aba mpawo ubayiisye abalikke, kjuti aya mabambe naa mulimo kuti nkazili zyamuntu, ziyosowegwa.
39 kodwa uba ungokaNkulunkulu, lingeke lawuchitha, hlezi lificwe ngitsho lingabalwayo loNkulunkulu.
Pesi kuti nkazili zya Leza, tamukoyo kkonzya pe kuzimwaya; muyojana kuti munoyolwana a Leza.” Eelyo bakazumina.
40 Basebemlalela; sebebabizele kubo abaphostoli babatshaya, babalaya ukuthi bangakhulumi ngebizo likaJesu, basebebakhulula.
Eelyo bakayita batumwa mukkati alimwi babawuma mpawo babalayilila kuti taba nochambuli muzina lya Jesu, mpawo bakabaleka beenda.
41 Ngakho basuka ebusweni bomphakathi, bethokoza ukuthi kwakubafanele ukudunyazwa ngenxa yebizo lakhe.
Bakaya kule kuzwa musule abazuluzi nkaba boteledwe kuti bakali baswanana kabiyo akupenzegwa akuwisya bulemu bwezina.
42 Njalo insuku zonke, ethempelini lakundlu ngendlu, kabayekelanga ukufundisa lokutshumayela uJesu Kristu.
Kuzwa wawo woonse mazuba, mukkati kentempele alimwi kuzwa kung'anda akung'anda, bakali kwinkilila anembo akuyobuyiisya alimwi akuyobumwaya milumbe mibotu kuti Jesu ngu Kkilisitu.
