Matendo ya Mitume 9:13-40

¹³Lakini Anania ajibili, “Bwana, nip'eliki habari sya munu ojhu kwa bhanu bhingi, kwa kiasi kereku abhabhombili mabhibhi bhatakatifu bha okhu Yerusalemu;

¹⁴Apa ajhe ni mamlaka kuhomakwa kuhani mbaha kun'kamula khila munu jha ikalitia lihina lya bhebhe.

¹⁵Lakini Bwana akan'jobhela, “Lotayi, kwandabha ndo khenu kiteule kwa nene alitolayi lihina lya nene mbele jha mataifa ni bhafalme ni bhana bha Israeli.

¹⁶Maana nibetakubhalasya ghaghajhe mingi ghaghibekundondeka kutesibhwa kwandabha jha lihina lya nene”.

¹⁷Anania akalota, akajhingila mugati mu nyumba m'ola; akambekela mabhokho akajobha, Ndongo Sauli, Bwana Yesu, jhaakuh'omili pa njela bho wihida, anilaghisi ukabhayi kulola kabhele na ujhiagha ni Roho mtakatifu.

¹⁸Gafla fikabina fenu pamihu pa muene kama magamba, abhwesi kulola, akajhema, akabatisibhwa akalya kyakulya ni kukabha nghofu.

¹⁹Akatama pamonga ni bhanafunzi okhu Dameski kwa magono ghamehele.

²⁰Wakati bhobhuobhu akan'tangasya Yesu mu masinagogi, akajobha kujha muene ndo mwana ghwa K'yara.

²¹Na bhoha bhabhap'eliki bhashangele ni kujobha, “Munu ojholepi jha abhaharibu bhoha bhabhakuti lihina e'le okhu Yerusalemu? Na apa ahidili kwa kusudi la kubhakhonga ni kubhap'eleka kwa Makuhani.”

²²Lakini Sauli abhwesibhu kuhubiri ni kubhafwanya bhayahudi bhabhetanieli Dameski bhachanganyikibhwayi ni kuthibitisha jha kujha ojho ndo Kristu.

²³Baada jha magono ghamehele, bhayahudi bhakabhomba Shauri pamonga ili bhan'komayi.

²⁴Lakini mpango ghwa bhene ghwajulikene kwa Sauli. Bhakanvizila pa ndiangu pamusi ni pakilu bhabhwesyayi kun'koma.

²⁵Lakini bhanafunzi bha muene bhakan'tola pakilu bhakan'selesya kup'etela pa ukuta, bhakan'selesya pasi mu kapu.

²⁶Ni Sauli bho afikili Yerusalemu, ajaribu kwilonga ni bhanafunzi lakini bhakajha bhiken'tila bhakajha bhikiera lepi kama ni muene mwanafunzi.

²⁷Lakini Barnaba akan'tola ni kumpeleka kwa mitume, Ni kubhajhelesya jinsi Sauli kya ambwene Bwana munjele ni Bwana kyaajobhinaku, ni jinsi Sauli kyaahubiri kwa ujasiri kwa lihina lya Yesu okhu Dameski.

²⁸Abhonene nabhu bho bhijhingila ni kupita Yerusalemu. Ajobhikwa ujasiri lihina lya Bwana Yesu,

²⁹Akajhaihojiana ni bhayahudi bha kiyunani lakini bhakajha bhijaribu mara kwa mara kun'koma.

³⁰Wakati bhalongomunu bhamanyili lijambo elu, bhakan; tola mpaka Kaisari, na bhampelekayi alolayi Tarso.

³¹Basi likanisa lyoha mu bhuyahudi, Galilaya ni Samaria, lyajhele ni imani, na lyajengibhu, ni kugenda mu hofu jha Bwana ni faraja jha Roho mtakatifu, kanisa lyakholili kwa kujhongeseka idadi.

³²Kisha atokili Petro bho isyongokasyongoka pande syoha sya mkoa, akabhaselelela bhaumini bhabhatameghe mu mji ghwa Lida.

³³Ambwene okhu munu mmonga jhaakutibhweghe Ainea, munu ojhu ajhele pakitanda miaka mia nane; maana apozili.

³⁴Petro akan'jobhela, “Ainea, Yesu Kristu akuponyiayi; Jhumukayi ni ukitandikilayi kitanda kya jhobhi,” Mara akajhumuka.

³⁵Ni bhanu bhoha bhabhatamili Lida ni Sharoni bho bhambwene munu ojhu, bhan'geukili Bwana.

³⁶Pajhele ni bhanafunzi Yafa jhaakutibhweghe Tabitha, ambalyo lyatasfriribhu kama “Dorcas” N'dala ojhu ajasisi mambo kinofu ni matendo gha rehema ghaaghabhombi kwa maskini.

³⁷Jhatokili katika magono aghu alwalili ni kufwa; bhobhan'safisi, bhan'kwesi kichumba kya panani ni kun'goneka.

³⁸Kwa vile Lida kyaajhele karibu ni Yafa na bhanafunzi bhap'eliki kwamba Petro ajhele okhu, bhabhalaghisi bhabehle kwa muene bhakan'sihi, “Hidayi kwa tete bila kuchelebhwa.”

³⁹Petro akahema ni kubhoka pamonga ni bhene. bho afikiri, bhan'ndeitli mu kichumba kya panani. Ni bhajane bhoha bhajhemili karibu ni muene bhakajha bhilela, bhakajha bhakandasya likotili ni nghobho ambasyo Dorcas abhashonili wakati ajhe pamonga ni bhene.

⁴⁰Petro akabhabhosya bhoha kwibhala ku kichumba, akapiga magoti akas'oka, kisha akabhugeukila mb'ele, akajobha, “Tabitha, jhumukayi”. Akafungula mihu gha muene na bho ambwene Petro akatama pasi.
