2 Ipapo muprista mukuru ainzi Ananiasi akarayira vaya vakanga vamire pedyo naye kuti vamurove pamuromo.
Hananiya, Mukulene wa Beshimilumbo mpwalanyumfweco, walambila balikuba bemana pepi ne Paulo kwambeti bamume lupaka pa mulomo.
3 Ipapo Pauro akati kwaari, “Mwari achakurova, iwe chidziro chakacheneswa nependi! Ugere ipapo kuti unditonge maererano nomurayiro, asi iwe pachako unodarika murayiro nokurayira kuti ndirohwe!”

4 Vaya vakanga vamire pedyo naPauro vakati, “Iwe uri kutotuka muprista mukuru waMwari nhai?”
Nomba bantu balikuba pepi ne Paulo balamwambileti, “Ha! Ulatukananga Mukulene wa Beshimilumbo wa Lesa!”
5 Pauro akapindura akati, “Hama dzangu, ndanga ndisingazivi kuti ndiye muprista mukuru; nokuti kwakanyorwa kuchinzi: ‘Usataura zvakaipa pamusoro pomubati wavanhu vako.’”
Paulo walakumbuleti, “Mobanse bame, nkandacishibangeti ni Mukulene wa Beshimilumbo. Pakwinga Mabala a Lesa alambangeti, ‘Kotamba maswi ayipa pa mwendeleshi wa bantu bakobe sobwe.’”
6 Ipapo Pauro, achiziva kuti vamwe vavo vakanga vari vaSadhusi uye kuti vamwe vakanga vari vaFarisi, akadanidzira kuDare Guru akati, “Hama dzangu, ini ndiri muFarisi, mwanakomana womuFarisi. Ndimire pano ndichitongwa nokuda kwetariro yangu yokumuka kwavakafa.”
Paulo mpwalaboneti nabambi balikuba Basaduki, nabambi balikuba Bafalisi, walabilikisheti, “Mobanse bame, ame nde Mufalisi, mwana wa Bafalisi! Ndomboloshewanga cebo ca kupembelela nkonkute kwa kwambeti bafwa ni bakapunduke.”
7 Akati ataura izvozvo, nharo dzakamuka pakati pavaFarisi navaSadhusi, nokudaro ungano yakapesana.
Mpwalambeco, palaba kutanyumfwana pakati pa Bafalisi ne Basaduki. Popelapo balapansana.
8 VaSadhusi vanoti hakuna kumuka kwavakafa, uye kuti hakuna mutumwa kana mweya, asi vaFarisi vanotenda izvozvo zvose.
Pakwinga Basaduki bakute kwambeti kuliya kupunduka, kuliya mungelo, nambi mushimu. Balo Bafalisi bashoma byonse bitatu.
9 Pakava nebope guru, uye vamwe vadzidzisi vomurayiro vainge vari vaFarisi vakasimuka vakaita nharo zvikuru. Vakati, “Hatina chakaipa chatinoona pamunhu uyu. Ko, kana ari mweya kana mutumwa akataura kwaari?”
Neco kutanyumfwana kwalakonempa, pakwinga beshikwiyisha Milawo ya Mose balikuba kulubasu lwa Bafalisi balemana ne kutotekeshana cangofu, ne kwambeti, “Afwe paliya ncetulacana caipa mu muntuyu! Mpani mushimu, nambi mungelo walamba nendi.”
10 Kupesana kwakava nemhirizhonga zvokuti mukuru wamauto akatya kuti Pauro angangobvamburwa-bvamburwa navo. Akarayira varwi kuti vaburuke vandomutora vamubvise kwavari nechisimba vagomuendesa kudzimba dzavarwi.
Makoto abantu abili alatotekeshana cangofu, cakwinseti mukulene wa bashilikali bonse walatineti mpani ni bamushine Paulo. Neco walambila bashilikali bakendi kuya kumufunyapo Paulo pa bantu, ne kumutwala mu nkambe ya bashilikali.
11 Usiku hwakatevera, Ishe akamira pedyo naPauro akati kwaari, “Tsunga mwoyo! Sezvawapupura pamusoro pangu muJerusarema, saizvozvo unofanira kundopupurawo muRoma.”
Pabusuba bopelobo cindi ca mashiku, Mwami Yesu walemana pepi ne Paulo ne kumwambileti, “Yumisha moyo! Mbuli ncolambeleko kamboni muno mu Yelusalemu, anu neku Loma welela kumbeleko kamboni.”
12 Fume mangwana, vaJudha vakaita rangano vakazvisunga nemhiko kuti varege kudya kana kunwa kusvikira vauraya Pauro.
Mpobwalaca, Bayuda nabambi balabungana pamo, kupangana cakumwinshila Paulo. Balalumbila pamenso a Lesa kwambeti nteti balyepo cakulya, nambi kunwapo ciliconse mpaka bamushine Paulo.
13 Varume vaipfuura makumi mana ndivo vakaita rangano iyi.
Bantu abo balapangana sha kumushina Paulo balikuba bapitilila makumi ana.
14 Vakaenda kuvaprista vakuru navakuru vakati, “Isu tazvisunga nemhiko kuti tirege kudya kana chinhu kusvikira tauraya Pauro.
Mwa bwangu bwangu balaya kuli beshimilumbo bamakulene, ne bamakulene Baciyuda, ne kubambileti, “Tulalumbili tobene kwambeti, nteti tulyepo cintu ciliconse mpaka tukamushine Paulo.
15 Zvino imi neDare Guru ravaJudha kumbirai mukuru wavarwi kuti amuuyise pamberi penyu muchiita somunoda kubvunzisisa pamusoro penyaya iyi. Isu takagadzirira kumuuraya asati asvika kuno.”
Neco amwe, pamo ne bendeleshi ba nkuta bonse, muye mumusenge mukulene wa bashilikali bonse kwambeti amulete kuno Paulo. Mu mubepeti mulayandanga kunyumfwishisha cena ncalensa. Kabatana bashika nendi kuno, afwe tulalibambili ku mushina.”
16 Asi, mwanakomana wehanzvadzi yaPauro akati anzwa rangano iyi, akapinda mudzimba dzavarwi akandoudza Pauro.
Nomba muntuwendi Paulo mutuloba, walanyumfwa nshebali kupangana. Mwa bwangu bwangu walaya munkambe ya bashilikali kuya kumwambila Paulo.
17 Ipapo Pauro akadana mumwe wavakuru vezana akati kwaari, “Tora jaya iri uende naro kumukuru wavarwi; ane zvaari kuda kumutaurira.”
Popelapo Paulo walakuwa mukulene wa bashilikali mwanda, ne kumwambileti, “Koya nendi mutuloba musepela uyu kuli mukulene wa bashilikali bonse, ukute maswi akumwambila.”
18 Saka akaenda naye kumukuru wavarwi. Mukuru wezana akati, “Pauro, musungwa uya, andidaidza akandikumbira kuti ndiuye nejaya iri, kwamuri nokuti rine zvarinoda kukuudzai.”
Mukulene wa bashilikali mwanda, walamutwala mutuloba musepela kuli mukulene wa bashilikali bonse, ne kumwambileti, “Paulo usa ngotwasunga langa lankuwu ne kunsengeti ndete mutuloba uyu kuli njamwe, ukute maswi akumwambila.”
19 Mukuru wavarwi akabata ruoko rwejaya, akaenda naye padivi akamubvunza akati, “Chii chauri kuda kundiudza?”
Mukulene wa bashilikali bonse usa walamwikata kucikasa ne kuya nendi pa lubasu, ne kumwipusheti, “Nimakani cini ngolayandanga kung'ambila?”
20 Iye akati, “VaJudha vakatenderana kukukumbirai kuti muuyise Pauro pamberi peDare Guru ravaJudha mangwana vachiita sevanoda kunyatsobvunzisisa pamusoro pake.
Nendi mutuloba usa walambeti, “Bayuda nabambi balapanganeti bakese kulinjamwe lilo, kwisa kumusengeti mukamusungulule Paulo kuli bendeleshi ba nkuta, nibakabepeti balayandanga kunyumfwishisha ncobele mulandu wakendi.
21 Musavanzwa, nokuti pane vamwe vavo vanopfuura makumi mana vakamuvandira. Vakatozvisunga nemhiko kuti varege kudya kana kunwa kusvikira vamuuraya. Vakatogadzirira izvozvi, vakamirira kubvuma kwenyu chikumbiro chavo.”
Kamutaka banyumfwila sobwe, pakwinga kuli batuloba bapitilila makumi ana, beti bakabenga bamubelamina Paulo panshila. Balumbila pamenso a Lesa kwambeti, ‘nteti balye cakulya, nambi kunwa kabatana bamushina Paulo.’ Pacino cindi balibambila kumushina, balapembelelengowa ncotimukumbule.”
22 Mukuru wavarwi akaita kuti jaya iri riende uye akamuyambira achiti, “Usaudza munhu kuti wataura izvi kwandiri.”
Mukulene wa bashilikali bonse walambeti, “Kotambilako muntu naba umo makani awa ngolang'ambiliko.” Popelapo mutuloba usa walapulamo, walaya kwabo.
23 Ipapo akadana vakuru vezana vaviri akavarayira achiti, “Gadzirirai mazana maviri avarwi, navanotasva mabhiza makumi manomwe uye mazana maviri avarume vane mapfumo kuti vaende kuKesaria nenguva dzepfumbamwe manheru.
Mukulene wa bashilikali walakuwa bashilikali babili bamakulene, ne kubambileti, “Mantani bashilikali myanda ibili ne bashilikali makumi asanu ne abili beshikutanta pama haki, kayi ne bashilikali myanda ibili bamafumo beti benga ku Kaisaleya, banyamuke cindi ca 9 koloko mashiku.
24 Mutsvakirewo Pauro bhiza rokutasva kuitira kuti andosvika zvakanaka kuMubati Ferikisi.”
Nendi Paulo mu mutantike pa lihaki, mwenga mu mushikishe cena kuli Mwendeleshi Felekisi.”
25 Akanyora tsamba yaiti:
Usa mukulene wa bashilikali bonse walalemba nkalata njalalembamo maswi awa.
26 Kiraudhiyo Risiasi, kuna Changamire, Mubati Ferikisi: Kwaziwai.

27 Murume uyu akabatwa navaJudha uye vakanga voda kumuuraya, asi ini ndakabva ndasvika navarwi vangu ndikamununura, nokuti ndakanga ndanzwa kuti muRoma.
Bayuda balamwikata muntuyu, balikuyanda kumushina. Lino mpondalenshibeti ni mwine Loma, ndalaya ne bashilikali kuya kumufuna.
28 Ndakada kuziva kuti sei vakanga vachimupomera mhosva, saka ndikamuendesa kuDare ravo Guru.
Ndalikuyanda kwinshiba mulandu ngobalamupa, neco ndalamutwala ku nkuta ya Bayuda.
29 Ndakaona kuti aipomerwa mhosva pamusoro pamashoko omurayiro wavo, asi pakanga pasina mhosva ingafanira rufu kana kupfigirwa mutorongo.
Ndalacaneti paliya caipa ncalensa ncelela kufwilapo, nambi kusungwa sobwe, pakwinga balikumupa mulandu pa makani a Milawo yabo bene.
30 Pandakanyeverwa pamusoro perangano yaakanga arongerwa, ndakabva ndamutumira kwamuri pakarepo. Ndakazivisawo vapomeri vake kuti vazosvitsa kwamuri mhosva yavanomupomera.
