Ghamatendo 9:13-40

¹³Lekeni Ananiya kedika, “Imtwatsa nihulika mbuli tse imunu ayu kulawa kwe iwanu wengi. Nihulika mengi ghehile ghayawatendele iwanu wako ako Yerusalemu.

¹⁴Naye katsa hano ne uwetso kulawa kwe iwatambika wakulu awaghoghe wose iwokutamanila ghweghwe.”

¹⁵Lekeni Imtwatsa kamlongela, “Ghenda, kwaapfila nimsaghula imunu yuno yanisang'anile, yapete taghwa lyangu kwa iwanu iwali si Wayahudi na kwe iwandewa wawo na kwe iwanu we Isiraeli.

¹⁶Nene imwenyegho nitsomlangusa mengi ighatsombama yadununzike kwaajili ya taghwa lyangu.”

¹⁷Apfo Ananiya kaghenda, kengila mng'anda amwo. Kuya kamwikila ghamoko Sauli, kalonga, “Ndughu yangu Sauli, Imtwatsa Yesu iyakulawile mnzila haung'ali kwakutsa hano, kanituma ili udahe ukwona keli na umemesighwe Ghumuhe Mwenzeluka.”

¹⁸Bahala ipfinu ka maghamba pfilaghala kulawa mnenge mwake, naye kadaha ukwona keli. Kuya kenuka, kabatitsighwa.

¹⁹Na hayamalitse ukuja ngupfu tsake tsimuyila. Sauli tsakakala ghamatsuwa chidogho ne iwanu iwamtoghole Yesu ako Damasko.

²⁰Baho kandusa kupeta mne tsing'anda tse ukulombela ka Yesu ka Imwana we Imulungu.

²¹Iwanu wose iwamuhulike wakangawala, walonga, “Imunu yuno si yuyula bae iyawakomile iwanu iwamtamanile Yesu akula Yerusalemu? Ambe tsakatsa hano yawaghoghe iwanu awo kuya yawaghale kwe iwatambika wakulu!”

²²Lekeni Sauli kaghendelela kupata ingupfu na kuwakangawatsa Wayahudi iwokala Damasko kwa kulangusa ka Yesu iyo Kiristu.

²³Haghabitile ghamatsuwa mengi, Wayahudi tsawelaghana wamkome Sauli.

²⁴Lekeni Sauli tsakalongelighwa imbuli ayo. Chilo na misi tsawamlolesa hane imibani ya kwingilila mkaye ili wamkome.

²⁵Lekeni nechilo wanang'ina wake wamsola, wamuhulumsa mliseghe kubitila mne litundu ilikalile mne libanda lye ghumji.

²⁶Sauli hapfikile Yerusalemu, tsakabama yelunge ne iwanang'ina, lekeni wawo wang'ali wompfuka, kwaapfila ng'awatoghole bae ka naye tsakakala imwanang'ina.

²⁷Lekeni Balinaba kamsola Sauli kamghala kwe iwatumighwa. Kawalongela Sauli pfayamwonile Imtwatsa mne ghumwanza ghwake na Imtwatsa tsakalonga naye, na pfayapetile taghwa lya Yesu bila kupfuka akula Damasko.

²⁸Apfo Sauli kakala nawo na ukwanga Yerusalemu yose aku kopeta imbuli ye Imtwatsa bila kupfuka.

²⁹Kalonga nawo na kwighutsa na Wayahudi iwolonga Chigiriki, lekeni nawo wabama kumkoma.

³⁰Ndughu hawamanyile imbuli ayo wamsola Sauli mbaka Kaisariya, wamghala Taso.

³¹Apfo iwanu iwomtoghola Kiristu tsawakala tseghamba mne isi ya Yudeya na Galilaya na Samariya, waghumighwa ghumoyo na Ghumuhe Mwenzeluka na wongetseka na kukala kwa kumpfuka Imtwatsa.

³²Petiri hayang'ali yobita chila hanu, kawangila iwanu we Imulungu iwokala Luda.

³³Ako kampfika imunu yumwe iyakemighwe Eneya, yawasile mlusatsi kwa miyaka kumi na minane kwa utamu wa kuholola.

³⁴Petiri kamlongela, “Eneya, Yesu Kiristu kokuhonetsa. Winuke, utandike lusatsi lwako.” Bahala Eneya kenuka.

³⁵Iwanu wose iwokala Luda na Sharoni wamwona Eneya, nawo wamuyila Imtwatsa.

³⁶Ako Yopa tsakukala ne imwanang'ina yumwe pinga iyakemighwe Tabita kwa Chigiriki Dorika, mana yake mbawala. Ipinga ayo tsayang'ali yotenda ghanoghile matsuwa ghose na kuwapfila iwahingwa.

³⁷Mna matsuwa agho kaghula, kafa, waghwopfugha lukuli wake na waghwika mchiheleto cha kuchanya.

³⁸Luda si hatali ng'ani na Yopa, apfo iwanang'ina hawahulike Petiri ka ako, wawatuma iwanu weli kuna yeye, na wamlomba, “Utse kuna twetwe sambi baha.”

³⁹Petiri kaghenda nawo, na hayapfikile, wamghala mchiheleto cha uchanya. Ipfitsuka wose wamtsunguluka Petiri aku wolila na kumlangusa maghwanda na maghwanda ghayatendile Dorika hayang'ali mghima.

⁴⁰Petiri kawalapfa wose kunze, kuya katowa ghamaghoti, kalomba. Kamhundukila ipinga yula iyafile, kalonga, “Tabita, winuke.” Naye kafumbula tsinenge na hayamwonile Petiri, kenuka kakala.
