Asomafoɔ 1
1 Mʼadamfo pa Teofilo, me nwoma a ɛdi ɛkan a metwerɛɛ wo no mu no, mekaa Yesu nnwuma a ɔyɛeɛ ne ne nkyerɛkyerɛ
Encwadini yami yakuqala, Theyofelasi, ngalandisa ngakho konke uJesu akwenzayo lakufundisayo
2 kɔsi ɛberɛ a Onyankopɔn bɛfaa no kɔɔ ɔsoro no ho asɛm. Ansa na wɔrebɛfa no akɔ ɔsoro no, ɔnam Honhom Kronkron tumi so kyerɛkyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no.
kwaze kwafika usuku enyukiswa ngalo esiya ezulwini, esenike izeluleko ngoMoya oNgcwele kubapostoli ayebakhethile.
3 Ne wusɔreɛ akyi, ɔtenaa asase so adaduanan, yii ne ho adi mpɛn pii kyerɛɛ nʼasuafoɔ no de kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, ampa, ɔte ase. Ɔkaa Onyankopɔn Ahennie ho asɛm nso kyerɛɛ wɔn.
Ngemva kokuhlupheka kwakhe, waziveza kubo, wabapha iziqiniseko ezinengi njengobufakazi bokuthi wayephila. Wabonakala kubo okwensuku ezingamatshumi amane, ekhuluma ngombuso kaNkulunkulu.
4 Ɛda bi a ɔne wɔn redidi no, ɔhyɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mommfiri Yerusalem, na montwɛn akyɛdeɛ a mʼAgya ahyɛ mo ho bɔ a maka ho asɛm akyerɛ mo no.
Wathi esidla labo ngelinye ilanga wabalaya wathi, “Lingasuki eJerusalema, lilindele isipho esathenjiswa nguBaba, elangizwa ngikhuluma ngaso.
5 Yohane de, ɔde nsuo na ɛbɔɔ asu, nanso mo de ɛrenkyɛre, wɔde Honhom Kronkron no bɛbɔ mo asu.”
Ngoba uJohane wabhaphathiza ngamanzi, kodwa ngemva kwensuku ezimbalwa lizabhaphathizwa ngoMoya oNgcwele.”
6 Asuafoɔ no nyinaa ne Yesu hyiaa mu no, wɔbisaa no sɛ, “Awurade, berɛ yi mu na wode ahennie no bɛba Israel anaa?”
Basebesithi gwaqa ndawonye bambuza bathi, “Nkosi, khathesi usuzabuyisela umbuso ko-Israyeli na?”
7 Yesu buaa wɔn sɛ, “Ɛho nhia sɛ mobɛhunu ɛberɛ a Agya no nam ne tumi so ahyehyɛ ato hɔ no.
Wathi kubo: “Kakusikho kwenu ukwazi izikhathi loba insuku uBaba azimisileyo ngamandla akhe.
8 Na sɛ Honhom Kronkron no ba mo so a, mobɛnya tumi na moayɛ mʼadansefoɔ wɔ Yerusalem ne Yudea nyinaa ne Samaria kɔsi asase ano.”
Kodwa lina lizakwamukela amandla nxa uMoya oNgcwele esefikile kini, njalo lizakuba ngofakazi bami eJerusalema lakulo lonke eleJudiya laseSamariya kanye lasemikhawulweni yomhlaba.”
9 Ɔkasa wieeɛ no, asuafoɔ no hunuu no sɛ ɔnam omununkum mu rekɔ ɔsoro na wɔanhunu no bio.
Esekutshilo lokhu, wenyukiswa phambi kwamehlo abo, iyezi lamfihla, abazabe besambona.
10 Wɔgu so rehwɛ ewiem no, amonom hɔ ara, mmarima baanu bi a wɔhyehyɛ ntadeɛ fitafitaa bɛgyinaa wɔn nkyɛn,
Babejolozele esibhakabhakeni ngesikhathi esenyuka, masinyazana nje kwema amadoda amabili eduze kwabo egqoke okumhlophe.
11 kaa sɛ, “Mo mmarima a mofiri Galilea, adɛn enti na mogyina ha rehwɛ ewiem? Yesu a wɔafa no afiri mo nkyɛn kɔ ɔsoro no, sɛdeɛ ɔsi kɔɔ ɔsoro no, saa ara na ɔbɛsane aba bio.”
Athi kubo, “Madoda aseGalile, limeleni lapha lijolozele esibhakabhakeni na? UJesu lo osethethwe kini wasiwa ezulwini uzabuya ngayonale indlela elimbone esenyuka ngayo esiya ezulwini.”
12 Yei akyi no, asuafoɔ no firii Ngo Bepɔ no so baa Yerusalem. Ɛfiri Ngo Bepɔ no so ba Yerusalem no bɛyɛ kilomita baako ne fa.
Basebebuyela eJerusalema besuka eNtabeni yama-Oliva, okungumango ongaba likhilomitha kusuka edolobheni.
13 Wɔduruu hɔ no, wɔkɔɔ ɛdan bi a na ɛwɔ aborɔsan a na wɔte so mu. Nnipa a na wɔwɔ hɔ no ne: Petro, Yohane, Yakobo ne Andrea; Filipo, Toma, Bartolomeo, Mateo, Alfeo ba Yakobo, Simon Seloteni ne Yakobo ba Yuda.
Ekufikeni kwabo bakhuphukela endlini ephezulu lapho ababehlala khona. Ababelapho babebalisa: uPhethro, uJohane, uJakhobe lo-Andreya; uFiliphu loThomasi; uBhatholomewu loMatewu; uJakhobe indodana ka-Alifewu, uSimoni umZilothi, loJudasi indodana kaJakhobe.
14 Na saa asuafoɔ yi nyinaa taa ne mmaa bi te sɛ Yesu maame Maria ne Yesu nnua mmarimanom hyia bɔ mpaeɛ.
Bonke laba bahlangana kokuphela bekhuleka, bendawonye labesifazane loMariya unina kaJesu kanye labafowabo bakaJesu.
15 Nna kakra bi akyi no, agyidifoɔ no a wɔn dodoɔ bɛyɛ sɛ ɔha aduonu no hyiaeɛ na Petro sɔre kasaa sɛ:
Ngalezonsuku uPhethro wasukuma phakathi kwamakholwa (ixuku elalingafika ikhulu elilamatshumi amabili)
16 Me nuanom, ɛsɛ sɛ nkɔm a Honhom Kronkron no nam Dawid so hyɛ faa Yuda ho sɛ ɛnam ne so na wɔbɛkyere Yesu no ba mu.
wathi, “Bazalwane, uMbhalo kwakumele ugcwaliseke, lokho okwakhulunywa nguMoya oNgcwele endulo ngomlomo kaDavida mayelana loJudasi owaba ngumkhokheli walabo ababopha uJesu.
17 Yɛn a Yesu yii yɛn no, na Yuda nso ka yɛn ho wɔ ɔsom no mu.
Wayengomunye wenani lethu njalo waba lengxenye emsebenzini wethu wobuvangeli.”
18 (Sika a Yuda nya firii ade bɔne a ɔyɛeɛ no mu no, wɔde tɔɔ asase wɔ faako a ɔwuiɛ hɔ. Ɔte bɛhwee fam maa ne mu paeeɛ maa nʼayamdeɛ tu guu so.
(Ngomvuzo awuzuzayo ngenxa yobubi bakhe, uJudasi wathenga isiqinti; khonapho wawa ngekhanda, isidumbu sakhe sadubuka, amathumbu akhe wonke agcwala phansi.
19 Nnipa a na wɔte Yerusalem nyinaa tee saa asɛm yi no, wɔtoo asase no din wɔ wɔn ankasa kasa mu sɛ Hekeldama a asekyerɛ ne sɛ, Mogya Asase.)
Bonke eJerusalema bezwa ngalokho, yikho babiza isiqinti leso ngolimi lwabo bathi yi-Akhelidama, okutsho iSiqinti seGazi.)
20 Petro toaa so kaa sɛ, “Wɔatwerɛ wɔ Dawid nnwom mu sɛ, “‘Ne efie nna mpan, na ne som adwuma no, obi mfa.’
UPhethro wathi, “Ngoba kulotshiwe encwadini yamaHubo ukuthi: ‘Sengathi indawo yakhe ingaba ngamanxiwa; kungabi lamuntu ozahlala kuyo,’ njalo, ‘Kakube lomunye ozathatha isikhundla sakhe sobukhokheli.’
21 Enti ɛsɛ sɛ yɛyi nnipa a yɛne wɔn nantee ɛberɛ a na Yesu ne yɛn dii akɔneaba no nyinaa,
Ngakho kufanele ukuba sikhethe omunye wamadoda abekade elathi isikhathi sonke iNkosi uJesu isesephakathi kwethu,
22 firi Yohane asubɔ adwuma no so de kɔsi ɛberɛ a wɔfaa Yesu firii yɛn nkyɛn kɔɔ ɔsoro no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ saa nnipa no mu baako bɛka yɛn ho ne yɛn di Yesu wusɔreɛ no ho adanseɛ.”
kusukela ekubhaphathizweni kwakhe nguJohane kuze kufike esikhathini lapho uJesu athathwa khona kithi. Ukuze omunye wabo laba abe ngufakazi kanye lathi ngokuvuka kwakhe kwabafileyo.”
23 Wɔyii nnipa baanu. Ɔbaako din de Yosef a na wɔfrɛ no Barsaba, na wɔtaa nso frɛ no Yusto. Deɛ na ɔka ho no nso din de Matia.
Ngakho basebemisa amadoda amabili, uJosefa owayethiwa nguBhasabhasi (esaziwa njalo ngokuthi nguJustusi) loMathiyasi.
24 Afei, asuafoɔ no bɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, “Awurade, wonim obiara akoma mu. Ɛno enti, kyerɛ yɛn nnipa baanu yi mu deɛ woayi no,
Basebekhuleka bathi, “Nkosi, uyayazi inhliziyo yomuntu munye ngamunye. Sitshengise ukuthi nguphi phakathi kwalaba ababili omkhethileyo
25 sɛ ɔmmɛsi Yuda a wanya ne baabi kɔ no ananmu mmɛyɛ asomafodwuma no.”
ukuba athathe lesisikhundla sobupostoli, uJudasi asitshiyayo esiya lapho ayefanele khona.”
26 Afei, asuafoɔ no bɔɔ wɔn so ntonto maa ɛsii Matia. Enti wɔfaa no kaa asomafoɔ dubaako no ho.
Basebesenza inkatho, yadla uMathiyasi, wasesengezwa kubapostoli abalitshumi lanye.
