Walanyumfwana ne mukashendi, ne kufunyapo mali ngobalaulisha libala, ambi walatwala kuli batumwa.
3 Ipapo Petro akati, “Ananiasi, Satani azadzireiko mwoyo wako kudai, kuti usvike pakureva nhema kuMweya Mutsvene uye wazvikamurira imwe mari yawawana pakutengesa munda?
Petulo walamwipusheti, “Hananiya obe, nipacebo cini ulamusuminishi Satana kwingila mumoyo wakobe cakwinseti ulatatiki kubepa Mushimu Uswepa, ne kufunyapo mali ngolaulishi libala lyakobe?
4 Ko, wakanga usiri wako here usati watengeswa? Uye shure kwokunge wautengesa, mari yakanga isiri yako here? Chiiko chakaita kuti ufunge kuita chinhu chakadai? Hauna kureva nhema kuvanhu asi kuna Mwari.”

7 Shure kwamaawa anenge matatu mukadzi wake akasvikopinda, asingazivi zvakanga zvaitika.
Mpopalapita maola atatu, nendi mukashendi walengila mung'anda katacinshi cilenshiki.
8 Petro akamubvunza akati, “Ndiudze, uyu ndiwo here mutengo wamakawana, iwe naAnaniasi, pamunda?” Iye akati, “Hongu, ndiwoyu mutengo.”
Petulo walamwipusheti, “Kong'ambila cena, sena awa emali onka ngomwaulisha libala lyenu? Mutukashuyo walakumbuleti, ‘Ee, wopelowo emulo wakendi.’
9 Petro akati kwaari, “Matenderana seiko kuti muedze Mweya waShe? Tarira! Tsoka dzamajaya aviga murume wako dziri pamukova, uye vachakutakura newewo.”
Kayi Petulo walamwipusheti, ‘Inga wasuminina cani kwambeti mwelekeshe Mushimu wa Mwami? Bantu bangakubika baibenu balipansa pa cishinga apa, nenjobe nibakumante.”
10 Pakarepo akawira pasi, patsoka dzake akabva afa. Ipapo majaya akapinda uye akamuwana afa, akamutakura akaenda naye kunze akandomuviga parutivi pomurume wake.
Nendi popelapo walawa panshi pamyendo ya Petulo, ne kufwa. Mpobalengila batuloba misepela basa, balacana kali wafwa kendi. Balanyamuna citumbi ne kuya kubika mu manda pepi ne mpobabika baibendi.
11 Kutya kukuru kwakabata kereke yose navose vakanzwa zvinhu izvi.
Mubungano wonse ne bantu bonse nabambi, balanyumfwako balaba ne buyowa.
12 Vapostori vakaita zviratidzo zvizhinji nezvishamiso pakati pavanhu. Uye vatendi vose vaiwanzosangana pamwe chete muBiravira raSoromoni.
Batumwa balensa bingashilo ne bishikukankamanisha bingi pakati pa bantu. Bonse bashoma Klistu balikubungana pamo mu Mukushi wa Solomoni.
13 Hakuna munhu akatsunga kubatana navo kunyange zvazvo vakanga vachikudzwa zvikuru navanhu.
Paliya naba umo walikuba kunsa kwalikoto walalibanda kwambeti abunganenga nabo, nsombi ne kukabeco bantu balikubalumbaisha.

Bantu bashoma muli Lesa balatatika kufulilako, cakwinseti lyalaba likoto linene lya batuloba ne batukashi.
15 Nokuda kwaizvozvo, vanhu vakauya navairwara munzira dzomumisha vakavaradzika pamibhedha napahukwe vachiitira kuti mumvuri waPetro uwire pane vamwe vavo paainge ava kupfuura napavari.
Pacebo ca bintu byalikwinsa batumwa, bantu bangi balatatika kuleta nekoneka balwashi babo pa malili ne pa mpasa munshila, kwambeti Petulo apitanga, mpani cifunsha cakendi ngacibakumyako balwashi.
16 Vanhu vazhinji zhinji vaibva mumaguta akapoteredza Jerusarema vakaunganawo, vakauya navarwere vavo navaya vaitambudzwa nemweya yakaipa, uye vose vakaporeswa.
Makoto abantu alesa kufuma muminshi yashinguluka Yelusalemu balikwisa kabali banyamuna balwashi ne bekatwa ne mishimu yaipa, kayi bonse balikusengulwa.
17 Ipapo muprista mukuru navamwe vose vaaiva navo, avo vakanga vari nhengo dzebato ravaSadhusi, vakazadzwa negodo.
Popelapo Mukulene wa Beshimilumbo, ne banendi ba mucipani ca Basaduki mulanyumfwa munyono. Neco balayeya kwinsapo kantu.
18 Vakasunga vapostori vakavaisa mujeri.
Balabekata batumwa basa ne kubacalila mujele.
19 Asi mutumwa waShe akauya usiku akazarura mukova wejeri akavabudisa,
Nomba cindi camashiku, mungelo wa Mwami walabicalula bisasa bya jele ne kubapulishamo ne kubambileti,
20 akati, “Endai, mundomira muzvivanze zvetemberi, mugoudza vanhu mashoko ose oupenyu hutsva uhu.”
“Kamuyani mwambile bantu bonse mu Ng'anda ya Lesa maswi abuyumi ubu bwalinolino.”
21 Vakapinda mutemberi mangwanani, sezvavakanga vaudzwa, vakatanga kudzidzisa vanhu. Muprista mukuru navamwe vake vakati vasvika, vakaunganidza Dare Guru ramakurukota, ungano yose yavakuru, vakatumira vanhu kuti vandotora vapostori kujeri.
Basa batumwa balanyumfwa, balengila mu lubuwa wa Ng'anda ya Lesa mumenemene ne kutatika kwiyisha. Mukulene wa Beshimilumbo mpwalashika ne banendi, walakuwa libungano lya bamakulene Baciyuda. Walatuma bamalonda baku Ng'anda ya Lesa kwambeti benga babamante batumwa basa ku Jele.
22 Asi vabati vakati vasvika pajeri, vakawana vasimo. Saka vakadzokera vakasvikoti,
Nomba mpobalashika kujele, baliya kubacanamo sobwe. Mpobalabwelako balabambileti,

“Tulacana bishinga byakujele kabili byacalwa ne kupinkwa cena cena, kayi ne bamalonda kabali bemana ncili pacishinga. Nomba mpotulacalulu bisasa, tuliya kucanamo muntu naba umo sobwe.”
24 Vakati vanzwa chiziviso ichi, mukuru wavarindi vetemberi navaprista vakuru vakakanganisika, vachishaya kuti chii chaizoitika.
Mukulene wa bamalonda baku Ng'anda ya Lesa ne beshimilumbo bamakulene mpobalanyumfwa awa maswi, balapwilwa mano ne kuyeyeti nicani ceticinshike.
25 Ipapo mumwe akasvika akati, “Tarirai! Varume vamakaisa mujeri vamire mutemberi vachidzidzisa vanhu.”
Muntu naumbi walesa kubambileti, “Kamunyumfwani! Basa bantu mbomwacalila mujele, bali mu Ng'anda ya Lesa baleyishinga bantu.”
26 Paakazvinzwa, mukuru wavarindi akabva aenda navabati vake akandouya navapostori. Havana kuzviita nokumanikidza, nokuti vaitya kuti vanhu vangavatake namabwe.
Popelapo mukulene wa bamalonda, pamo ne bashilikali nabambi, balaya kubamanta batumwa. Nsombi baliya kubakakatisha batumwa, pakwinga balikutina bantu kwambeti ngababapwaya mabwe.
27 Vakati vauya navapostori, vakavamisa pamberi peDare Guru kuti vabvunzwe nomuprista mukuru.
Mpobalaleta batumwa basa, balabemanika pamenso pa nkuta inene ya Bayuda, apo Mukulene wa Beshimilumbo mpwalatatika kubepusha.
28 Akati, “Takakurayirai zvakasimba kuti murege kudzidzisa muzita iri. Asi mazadza Jerusarema rose nedzidziso yenyu uye munoda kuti tive nemhosva yeropa romurume uyu.”
Walambeti, “Mucinshi cena kwambeti, twalamukanisha mwangofu kwambeti, kamutayishanga mulina lya Yesu, nsombi amwe mulamwaya biyisho byenu mu Yelusalemu monse, kayi mulayandanga kutusambila lufu lwa muntuyu?”
29 Petro navamwe vapostori vakapindura vachiti, “Tinofanira kuteerera Mwari kukunda vanhu!
Nomba Petulo ne batumwa banendi balakumbuleti, “Twelela kunyumfwila Lesa, kupita kunyumfwila bantu.
30 Mwari wamadzibaba edu akamutsa Jesu kubva kuvakafa uyo wamakaita kuti aurayiwe nokumuturika pamuti.
Amwe mwalashina Yesu pakumupopa pa lusanda. Nomba Lesa wa bamashali betu bakulukulu walamupundusha kubafu.
31 Mwari akamusimudzira kuruoko rwake rworudyi soMuchinda noMuponesi kuti ape kutendeuka nokuregererwa kwezvivi kuvaIsraeri.

32 Isu tiri zvapupu zvezvinhu izvi, uyewo noMweya Mutsvene wakapiwa naMwari kuna avo vanomuteerera.”
Njafwe bakamboni ba bintu ibi, ne Mushimu Uswepa uyo Lesa ngwakute kupeti cipo kubantu bakute kumunyumfwila.”
33 Vakati vanzwa izvi, vakashatirwa uye vakada kuvauraya.
Bomboloshi bankuta inene mpobalanyumfweco, balakalala kabayanda kubashina.
34 Asi mumwe muFarisi ainzi Gamarieri, mudzidzisi womurayiro, uyo aikudzwa navanhu vose, akasimuka pakati pedare akarayira kuti vanhu vambobudiswa panze kwechinguvana.
Nomba Mufalisi naumbi pakati pabo, lina lyakendi, Gamaliyele, shikwiyisha milawo, uyo bantu ngobalikupa bulemu, walemana. Walambeti, “Batumwa bapuleko pansa nanshi.”

Apo lino walabambila bomboloshi Bankuta inene kwambeti, “Amwe Baislayeli, cenjelani ne ncomulayandanga kwinshila bantu aba.
36 Munguva yakapfuura, kwakambova naTudhasi aizviti iye munhu mukuru, uye varume vanenge mazana mana vakamutevera. Akaurayiwa, vose vaimutevera vakaparadzirwa, uye zvikaguma zvava pasina.
