Ghamatendo 19:3-14

³Pauli kawaghutsa, “Kuya tsambatitsighwa ubatitso wachi?” Wamwidika, “Ubatitso iyang'ali yobatitsa Yohane.”

⁴Pauli kalonga, “Ubatitso wang'ali yobatitsa Yohane tsaukala kwa awala iwatoghole kutsileka nzambi tsawo. Naye tsakawalongela iwanu wamtoghole ayula iyakutsa kuchughu kwake, ayo iyo Yesu.”

⁵Hawahulike pfino, wabatitsighwa kwa taghwa lya Yesu.

⁶Pauli hayamalitse kuwekila ghamoko, Ghumuhe Mwenzeluka kawahulumkila, nawo wandusa ukulonga lugha ingi, pfipfila walonga mbuli ye Imtwatsa.

⁷Tsawakala iwanu ka kumi na weli.

⁸Pauli kengila mne ing'anda ye ukulombela, kwa miyetsi midatu kalonga ne iwanu bila kupfuka, tsakaghetsa kuwakwegha watse mne Undewa we Imulungu.

⁹Lekeni wamwenga tsawana mimoyo mikomu na ng'awatoghole bae, na wailonga pfihile Imbuli ye Imtwatsa. Apfo Pauli kawaleka, kawasola iwatoghole, kalonga nawo chila litsuwa mne ing'anda ya ukulangulitsila ya imunu yumwe iyakemighwe Tirano.

¹⁰Pfinu pfino pfighendelela kwa miyaka mili, ili iwanu wose iwokala mne kaye tse isi ya Asiya, Wayahudi na iwanu iwali si Wayahudi bae wahulike imbuli ye Imtwatsa.

¹¹Imulungu tsayang'ali yotenda pfihulo pfikulu kubitila Pauli.

¹²Hata pfitambala na maghwanda ghayakindile ghaghalighwa kwe iwatamu, utamu wawo uwalawa, na ipfinyamkela pfiwalawa.

¹³Wayahudi wamwenga iwakwangakwanga na kulapfa ipfinyamkela tsawaghetsa kutumila taghwa lya Imtwatsa. Wawalongela ipfinyamkela, “Nomlaghitsani mlawe kwa taghwa lya Yesu, iyopetighwa na Pauli.”

¹⁴Iwatendile apfo, tsawakala iwana saba wa imunu yumwe Myahudi iyakemighwe Sikewa, iyakalile Imtambika mkulu.
