2 Abhantu bha Ngulubhi bhasyela uStefano bhazondiye enzondo engosi tee.
Abantu ba Katonda ne baggyawo Suteefano ne bamutwala ne bamuziika mu kwaziirana okungi.
3 Lelo uSauli alitesile sana ikanisa. Ashilaga shila nyumba abhakhate na bhakwesanjile hwunze nabhaponyezya mulumande(mwijela) abhashe na bhalume, na kuwatupia gerezani.
Naye Sawulo n’akolerera okuzikiriza Ekkanisa; n’agenda buli wantu ng’akwata abasajja n’abakazi n’abatwala mu kkomera.
4 Bhaala bhabhanyampine abheene bhalumbililaga izu lya Ngulubhi.
Naye abakkiriza abadduka mu Yerusaalemi ne bagenda mu buli kifo nga babuulira Enjiri ya Yesu.
5 U Filipo ahishiye hu Samaria alumbililaga izu elya Ngulubhi.
Awo Firipo, n’alaga mu kimu ku bibuga bya Samaliya n’abuulira abantu Enjiri ya Kristo.
6 Ubhungano nabhalola zyazibhombeha nu Filipo; bhazibheha humoyo gabho nahwitishile.
Ebibiina ne bimuwuliriza nnyo kubanga abantu bonna baalaba ebyamagero bye yakola.
7 Abhantu bhabhali bhabhinu bhaponile amipepo mabhibhi gabhafumile abhantu uhu bhakholaawa na bhaala afwemanama bhaponile.
Baddayimooni bangi ne bava ku bantu nga bwe baleekaana; abaali bakoozimbye n’abalema bonna ne bawonyezebwa;
8 Ensi ela bhasungwile sana.
ekibuga ne kijjula essanyu.
9 Ahali umuntu umo itawa lyakwe ali yu Simoni umuntu uyo alini tunga ashangazyaga tee ensi ya bha Samaria, umuntu uyo agaga umwene gosi saana bonti bhatimihaje.
Waaliwo omusajja erinnya lye Simooni eyali omufumu omwatiikirivu mu kibuga omwo era nga yeewuunyisa nnyo abantu bonna mu Samaliya. Yeeyogerangako nti muntu mukulu era wa kitiibwa.
10 Abhasamaria bhonti bhahatejelezya ahwande umwa paka agosi abhantu bhaga umuntu unu ezi zyabhomba zifuma hwa Ngulubhi.”
Era abantu bangi ab’ekitiibwa n’abatali ba kitiibwa baamwogerangako nti, “Omusajja oyo ge maanyi ga Katonda agayitibwa, ‘Amangi.’”
11 Bhatejelezya maana abhaswijizizye tee nsiku nyinji ni tuunga lyakwe.
Ne bamussangako nnyo omwoyo olw’ebyobufuusa bye yakolanga.
12 Nabhahatejelezya uFilipo nalumbililaga uumwene uwa humwanya ni tawa lya Ngulubhi lyalyaponyaga abhantu ashilile hwitawa lya Yesu bhahoziwe alume na bhashe.
Naye bwe bakkiriza obubaka bwa Firipo ng’abuulira ku bwakabaka bwa Katonda n’erinnya lya Yesu Kristo abasajja n’abakazi ne babatizibwa.
13 Wope uSimoni aheteshe ahoziwe nalileshe itunga lyakwe, ahendelela alongozanye nu Filipo; aswijile sana nahazilola Ungulubhi ashilile hwa Filipo zyazibhombeha ngosi tee.
Awo ne Simooni yennyini n’akkiriza era n’abatizibwa, n’agobereranga Firipo buli gye yalaganga; era ebyamagero Firipo bye yakolanga, Simooni n’abyewuunya nnyo.
14 Atume nabhahumvwa aje abhahu Samaria bhalyeteshe izi lya Ngulubhi, bhahabhatuma uPetro nu Yohana.
Awo abatume abaali mu Yerusaalemi bwe baawulira ng’abantu mu Samaliya bakkirizza ekigambo kya Katonda, ne babatumira Peetero ne Yokaana.
15 Nabhafiha hula bhabhapuutila aje bhaposheele Umpepo Ufinjile.
Bwe baatuuka ne basabira abakkiriza bano abaggya bafune Mwoyo Mutukuvu,
16 Ensiku zyonti izyo baalisile ahuposhele Umpepo Ufinjile bhonti lelo bhahoziwe hwitawa lya Yesu.
kubanga yali tannaba kubakkako, kubanga baali babatizibbwa mu linnya lya Mukama waffe Yesu kyokka.
17 U Petro nu Yohana bhabhabhishila amakhono bhabhapuutila, bhope baposhela Umpepo Ufinjile.
Awo Peetero ne Yokaana ne bassa emikono gyabwe ku bakkiriza abo, ne bafuna Mwoyo Mutukuvu.
18 U Simoni nawalola abhantu bhahuposhela Umpepo Ufinjile nabhabheshilwa amakhono na atume wanza aje abhapele ihela,
Simooni, Omufumu, bwe yalaba ng’abantu bafunye Mwoyo Mutukuvu olw’abatume okubassaako emikono kyokka, kyeyava atoola ensimbi aziwe abatume bamuguze obuyinza obwo.
19 Waga, “Mpeli nane ouwezo, owo aje shila muntu yehubhishila amakhono aposhelaje Umpepo Ufinjile.”
N’abagamba nti, “Mumpe obuyinza obwo, buli gwe nnassangako emikono gyange afune Mwoyo Mutukuvu!”
20 U Petro wabhuula waga ihela zyaho nawe wayo mtejele uhwo ubhishile aje ekarama ya Ngulubhi tipelwa ni hela.
Naye Peetero n’amugamba nti, “Ensimbi zo zizikirire naawe olw’okulowooza nti ekirabo kya Katonda kiyinza okugulibwa obugulibwa n’ensimbi.
21 Suli ni hama hwu mbombo ene umwoyo gwaho segugoloshe hwa Ngulubhi.
Mu nsonga eno tolinaamu mugabo kubanga omutima gwo si mulongoofu mu maaso ga Katonda.
22 Eshi laamba hwa Ngulubhi ulwinje abhahusajile ensebho zyaho embibhi ezyo.
Noolwekyo weenenye ekikolwa ekyo ekibi weegayirire Mukama, oboolyawo Katonda ayinza okukusonyiwa ebirowoozo byo ebyo ebibi.
23 Elola umwoyo gwaho segulishinza hunanchishe gupinyilwe ne mbibhi.”
Kubanga ndaba nga mu mutima gwo mujjudde obuggya, era oli muddu wa kibi.”
24 U Simoni waga ilabha mumpuutile hwa Ngulubhi ezi zyamuyanjile zisahanaje.
Simooni n’abeegayirira nti, “Munsabire eri Mukama ebintu ebyo bye mwogedde bireme okuntuukako.”
25 U Petro nu Yohana pabhawelaga afume uhwo bhalumbiliye muvijiji vivinja evya Samaria pamande bhawela hu Yerusalemu.
Awo Peetero ne Yokaana bwe baamala okubuulira ekigambo kya Katonda n’obuvumu, ne basitula okuddayo mu Yerusaalemi, nga bagenda babuulira Enjiri mu bibuga bingi bye baayitangamu mu Samaliya.
26 Umalaika wa Ngulubhi wayanga nu Filipo waga sogola ushilile idala elya ntende(hu kusini) lwalihwishila hu Yerusalemu abhalile hu Gaza.” (Idala eli lili mwijangwa).
Awo malayika wa Mukama n’agamba Firipo nti, “Kwata ekkubo eriraga mu bukiikaddyo, eriva e Yerusaalemi nga liyita mu ddungu okugenda e Ggaaza.”
27 U Filipo wabhala. Walola umuntu uwa hwi Ethiopia, afumle apuute hu Yerusalemu umuntu unu ali hasule ali gosi hu nyumba ya malkia wa hwi Ethiopia.
Firipo n’akwata ekkubo eryo. Mu kiseera ekyo waaliwo omusajja Omwesiyopya mu kkubo eryo ng’ava mu kusinza e Yerusaalemi. Yali mulaawe nga mukungu mu lubiri lwa Kandake, kabaka omukazi owa Esiyopya, era ye yali omuwanika we omukulu.
28 Akhiiye mwi gari lyakwa abhazyaga ibhangili lya Isaya igari palijenda abhale amwabho.
Yali atudde mu ggaali lye ng’addayo ewaabwe nga bw’asoma ekitabo kya nnabbi Isaaya.
29 Umpepo wabhuula uFilipo zubhilila hwi gari elyo upalamane nalyo.
Awo Mwoyo Mutukuvu n’agamba Firipo nti, “Semberera eggaali eryo oligendereko.”
30 “U Filipo walishimbilila igari lila wamwunvwa ula umuntu abhazya mwibhangili elya Isaya wabhuzya uzyiliwe zyubhazya umwo?”
Firipo n’adduka n’atuuka ku ggaali, n’awulira Omwesiyopya ng’asoma mu kitabo kya nnabbi Isaaya. N’amubuuza nti, “By’osoma obitegeera?”
31 Umuntu ula uMwiethiopia waga embahwelewe wili umuntu nkasiga andongozye? Wakhope lezya uFilipo aje ainjile mwigari lyakwe bhakhale bhonti.
Omwesiyopya n’addamu nti, “Nnaabitegeera ntya nga sirina abinnyinnyonnyola?” N’asaba Firipo ayingire mu ggaali lye batuule bombi.
32 Ibhangili lyabhazyaga pasimbilwe eshi alongoziwe neshi engole nabhabhalanayo asinze; apumile myee neshi engole, sigahiguye ilomu lyakwe:
Ekyawandiikibwa kye yali asoma nga kigamba bwe kiti nti: “Yatwalibwa ng’endiga egenda okuttibwa. Ng’omwana gw’endiga bwe gusiriikirira nga bagusalako ebyoya, naye bw’atyo teyayasamya kamwa ke.
33 Azugumile hwakwe alongwe hwakwe hwa hepile: Weenu yaiyanga eshizazi shakwe(empapo yakwe)? amaisha gakwe gepile munsi.”
Yajoogebwa n’atalamulwa mu bwenkanya. Ani alyogera ku bazzukulu be? Kubanga ekiseera kye eky’obulamu bwe ku nsi kyakoma!”
34 Ula uhasule mwithiopia wabhuuzya uFilipo unu umuntu yebhazya umu enongwa ezi zyakwe yuyo awe zya muntu winji”?
Omulaawe kwe kubuuza Firipo nti, “Nnyinnyonnyola, munnange, nnabbi gw’ayogerako; yeeyogerako yekka oba ayogera ku mulala?”
35 U Filipo wamwandila mwumwo munongwa zyabhazyaga mwibhangili lya Isaya hulumbilile izu lya Yesu.
Awo Firipo n’atandika n’Ekyawandiikibwa ekyo n’amubuulira Enjiri ya Yesu Kristo.
36 Nabhandelela abhale bhafiha papali na menze ula uhasule wabhuzya uFilipo enya amenze ega epa henu hahansinti zya ahwoziwe?
Bwe baali bagenda ne batuuka awali amazzi, omulaawe n’agamba nti, “Laba amazzi! Kale lwaki sibatizibwa?”
37 u Filipo waga nkuyitishe ebhajiye ula Umwithiopia waga eneteshe huje uYesu mwana wa Ngulubhe, ula Umwithiopia wimiliha igari lyakwe.
Awo Firipo n’amugamba nti, “Oyinza okubatizibwa, bw’oba ng’okkiriza n’omutima gwo gwonna.” Omulaawe n’addamu nti, “Nzikiriza nga Yesu Kristo Mwana wa Katonda.”
38 Bhiha bhonti mwigari bhatumbushila mumenze, uFilipo nu mwithiopia uFilipo wamwozya(wabhatizya).
Awo n’alagira omugoba w’eggaali lye okuyimirira, ne bakka mu mazzi, Firipo n’amubatiza.
39 Nabhazubha afume muminzi bhonti Umpepo wanyatula uFilipo wasagala yu Mwithiopia mwene Umwithiopia wasogola nigari lyakwe abhalile shashiye humwoyo.
Bwe baava mu mazzi amangwago Omwoyo wa Mukama n’atwala Firipo, Omulaawe n’ataddayo kumulaba nate, naye n’atambula olugendo lwe ng’ajjudde essanyu.
40 Lelo uFilipo abhuinishe hu azoto alumbililaga muvijiji na mujini mpaka afishile hu Kaisaria.
Naye Firipo n’alabikira mu Azoto, n’agenda ng’abuulira Enjiri mu bibuga byonna eby’omu kitundu ekyo okutuukira ddala e Kayisaliya.
