Lukumbi lwe akonganiki nawu pamonga avalagazili. “Mkotoka kuwuka pa Yelusalemu, ndi mlindila njombi yeavalagazili Dadi, yemmali kuniyuwana nilongela ndava yaki.
5 nokuti Johwani zvirokwazvo wakabhabhatidza nemvura, asi imwi muchabhabhatidzwa neMweya Mutsvene pasina mazuva mazhinji kubva ikozvino.

6 Naizvozvo ivo vakati vaungana vakamubvunza vachiti: Ishe, muchadzosera ushe kuna Israeri nenguva ino here?
Vanalihengu pavakonganiki pamonga na Yesu, vakamkota, “Wu Bambu, lukumbi ulu ndi pawiwuyisa unkosi wula kwa Isilaeli?”

9 Zvino wakati areva zvinhu izvi, akakwidzwa vakatarira, negore rikamubvisa pameso avo.
Peamali kujova genago, kuni voha vakumlolokesa, akatoliwa kunani kwa Chapanga, lihundi likamfiya vakotoka kumlola kavili.
10 Zvino vachakatarisisa kudenga, achikwira, zvino tarira, varume vaviri vakamira navo nenguvo chena;
Pevayendalili kulolokesa kunani, kuni mwene ihamba, bahapo vandu vavili vevawalili nyula za msopi vayimili papipi na vene,

12 Zvino vakadzokera kuJerusarema vachibva pagomo rinonzi reMiorivhi riri pedo neJerusarema, chinhambwe cherwendo rwesabata.
Kangi vamitumi vakawuya Yelusalemu kuhuma kuchitumbi chila chechikemelewa Mizeituni chechavili utali wa kilomita yimonga kuhuma kumujini.
13 Vakati vapinda, vakakwira mukamuri yepamusoro apo paigara vese Petro naJakobho naJohwani naAndiriya, Firipi naTomasi, Bhatironomiyo naMatewu, Jakobho waArifio naSimoni muZiroti, naJudhasi waJakobho.
Pavahikili pamuji vakakwela kugolofa kwevatamayi, vavi Petili na Yohani na Yakobo na Andelea na Filipi na Tomasi na Batolomei na Matei na Yakobo mwana wa Alufayo, Simoni Zeloti chikundi cha Vayawudi vevibela ulongosi wa Loma, na Yuda mwana wa Yakobo.
14 Ava vese vakatsungirira nemoyo umwe mumunyengetero nemukumbiro, pamwe nevakadzi, naMaria mai vaJesu, uye nevanin'ina vake.
Voha ava vakakonganeka kumuyupa Chapanga, pamonga na vadala na Maliya nyina waki Yesu na valongo vaki.
15 Zvino mumazuva iwayo Petro wakasimuka pakati pevadzidzi akati (kwaiva nechaunga nevanhu pamwe vanenge zana nemakumi maviri):
Magono ago, Petili ayimili pagati ya valongo vamsadika vala vevakonganiki, voha vavi vandu miya yimonga na ishilini,
16 Varume hama, zvakafanira kuti rugwaro urwu rwuzadziswe, Mweya Mutsvene zvawakagara wataura nemuromo waDhavhidhi pamusoro paJudhasi, wakange ari mutungamiriri wevaya vakabata Jesu,
akajova, “Valongo vangu, yaganikiwi Mayandiku Gamsopi gatimilayi, pandu pala Mpungu Msopi, alotili mu malovi ga Daudi kumvala Yuda mweavalongwisi vala vevamkamwili Yesu.
17 nokuti wakange achiverengwa pamwe nesu, akagamuchira mugove weushumiri uhu.
Yuda avi mmonga wa chikundi chitu muni ahaguliwi kuhenga lihengu la chitumi pamonga na tete.”
18 Zvino uyu wakawana munda nemubairo wezvakaipa, akawa nemusoro, akaparuka nepakati, ura hwake hwese hukabvajukira kunze.
Mwene agulili mgunda kwa mashonga geagapatili ndava ya kumng'anamukila Yesu, akagwa pahi na kupapuka, maleme gaki gakahuma kuvala.
19 Zvikanzwikwa kuvagari vese paJerusarema, zvekuti munda uyo watumidzwa nerurimi rwavo pachavo kuti Akeridhama, ndiko kuti: Munda weropa.
Lijambu lenilo likayuwanikana kwa kila mundu wa Yelusalemu, hati kwa luga yavi vakaukemela mgunda wula Hakeli Dama, mana yaki “Mgunda wa Ngasi.”
20 Nokuti zvakanyorwa mubhuku reMapisarema zvichinzi: Musha wake ngauve dongo, uye kurege kuva neanogara mauri; uye: Utariri hwake, umwe ngaatore.
Hinu yiyandikiwi muchitabu cha Zabuli, nyumba yaki yisigalila mang'ova, mundu yoyoha akotoka kutama mwenumo. Kangi yiyandikiwi. Mundu yungi atola pandu pa lihengu laki.
21 Naizvozvo zvakafanira pavarume ava vaifamba nesu munguva yese, apo Ishe Jesu aipinda nekubuda pakati pedu,
Ndi mundu mmonga pagati yinu, mwealandini na tete lukumbi lwoha Bambu Yesu peavi mulugendu pamonga na tete ahaguliwa kuwungana na tete,
22 kutanga parubhabhatidzo rwaJohwani, kusvikira pazuva raakwidzwa kubva kwatiri, umwe wavo ngaave chapupu pamwe nesu chekumuka kwake.

23 Zvino vakamisa vaviri: Josefa wainzi Bharisabhasi, wakatumidzwawo Jusito, naMatiasi.
Hinu, vakaluwula mahina gavili, wa mmonga Yosefu mweikemiwa Basaba mewa Yusto, na yungi Matia.
24 Vakanyengetera vachiti: Imwi Ishe, imwi muzivi wemoyo yevese, taridzai umwe pavaviri ava wamasarudza,
Kangi vakamuyupa Chapanga, “Bambu, veve ukiyimanya mitima ya vandu voha. Hinu utilangisa yani mwemhagwili pagati ya vavili ava,
25 kugamuchira mugove paushumiri nevuapositori, Judhasi hwaakatsauka pahuri, kuti aende panzvimbo yake pachake.
muni atola pandu pa lihengu la chitumi lealekili Yuda, mwene awukili kuhamba pandu paki mwene.”
26 Zvino vakavapa mijenya yavo, mujenya ukawira pana Matiasi; akaverengwa pamwe nevaapositori vanegumi neumwe.
Vakamhagula na Matia ndi akahaguliwa mwene ayonjokeswa pagati ya vamitumi kumi na mmonga vala.
