Sang'hano 1:16-26

¹⁶Petulo kema na kulonga, “Ndugu zangu, Maandiko Gang'alile golondeka galawilile, gaja gayalongile Loho Yang'alile kubitila Daudi, yalagule mbuli ya Yuda, ayo yawalongoze wanhu waja wamgogile Yesu.

¹⁷Yuda kakala imoja wa kibumbila chetu, kwavija kasaguligwa tutende nayo sang'hano.”

¹⁸Yuda kagula mgunda kwa sente ziyapatile kwa gehile, mumo kagwa kingubanguba luu, na inda yake itulika na vinhu vake vose va mgati vilawa kunze.

¹⁹Wanhu wose wa Yelusalemu waihulika mbuli ayo, avo kwa ulonzi wa kumwao waukema mgunda awo Akelidama, fambulo jake, “Mgunda wa Damu.”

²⁰“Kwavija yandikigwa mna ikitabu cha Zabuli, ‘Ng'anda yake iwe vihame, mgati yake sekeyakale munhu yoyose.’ Vivija yandikigwa, ‘Munhu iyagwe yasole sang'hano yake.’

²¹“Avo, kolondeka yasaguligwe munhu imoja yakalile na tweye kipindi chose Mndewa Yesu viyangile na tweye.

²²Kusongela kipindi kija Yohana viyawapetele wanhu usenga wake wa kubatiza, mbaka siku dija Yesu viyagaligwe kuulanga kulawa kumwetu. Munhu ayo yailumbe na tweye mna isang'hano ya kuwapetela wanhu kuzilibuka kwa Yesu.”

²³Avo wasagula matwaga ga wanhu wabili, Yusufu yakemigwe Balisaba hebu Yusito, na wakabili Matiasi.

²⁴Abaho wampula Mulungu walonga, “Mndewa, kugajuwa goyogesa kila munhu. Avo tulagusile nani mna iwanhu wano wabili yuumsagule

²⁵yakusang'hanile muutumigwa yaulekile Yuda, yalemelwa kuchola hanhu hayalondeke.”

²⁶Aho wabwanha simbi kusagula mna iwanhu awo wabili, avo simbi imgwila Matiasi, nayo kongezigwa mna ikibumbila cha watumigwa longo na imoja.
