Imisebenzi 4
1 Kwathi besakhuluma ebantwini, abapristi lenduna yethempeli labaSadusi babafikela,
A Petili na a Yowana bhalinginji nkwaalungushiyanga bhandunji, gubhaikengenenje bhakulungwanji bha bhaabhishila na bhakulungwanji bha ulinda gwa liekalu na ashi Mashadukayo.
2 benengekile ngoba babefundisa abantu, njalo betshumayela ukuvuka kwabafileyo ngoJesu.
Ashi Mashadukayo na bha kulungwanji bha ulinda gubhaatumbalilenje kwa kaje a Petili na a Yowana, pabha bhatendanga kwajiganyanga na kwaalungushiyanga bhandunji ga yuka kwa a Yeshu ngani jitaya kuti kupali kuyuka kwa bhawilenje.
3 Babadumela ngezandla, babafaka esitokisini kwaze kwaba kusisa; ngoba kwasekuhlwile.
Bhai, gubhaakamulenje na pabha yaliji tome na pilila, gubhaabhishilenje muulinda mpaka pa malabhi gakwe.
4 Kodwa abanengi abalizwayo ilizwi bakholwa; lenani lamadoda lalingaba zinkulungwane ezinhlanu.
Ikabheje bhabhagwinji bhapilikenenje jene nganijo gubhakulupalienje, bhaakulupalila bhanabhalume gubhaishilenje tome na ishila elupu nng'ano.
5 Kwasekusithi kusisa kwabuthana ababusi labadala lababhali babo eJerusalema,
Pa malabhi gakwe, ashikalongolele bha Shiyaudi, na bhanangulungwa na bhaajiganya bha malajilo ga a Musha gubhapegwilwe na a Nnungu, gubhaimenenje ku Yelushalemu.
6 loAnasi umpristi omkhulu, loKayafasi, loJohane, loAleksandro, labo bonke abendlu yompristi omkhulu.
Gubhaimenenje pamo na bhakulungwa bha bhaabhishila a Anashi, na a Kayapa, na a Yowana, na a Alekishanda, na bhananji bhalinginji bha ulongo bha bhakulungwa bha bhaabhishila.
7 Sebebamise phakathi, babuza: Lokhu lina likwenze ngawaphi amandla kumbe ngaliphi ibizo?
Bhakaajimikanjeje bhantenga bhala mmujo jabhonji, gubhaabhushiyenje, “Mmanganya nshitendanga yenei kwa mashili gakeni na antumilenje gani?”
8 Khona uPetro egcwaliswe nguMoya oNgcwele wathi kubo: Babusi babantu labadala bakoIsrayeli,
Penepo, a Petili bhali bhagumbelwe na Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo, gubhaalugulilenje, “Mmanganya ashikalongolele na bhanangulungwa bha pa Ishilaeli!
9 nxa thina sibuzwa lamuhla ngomsebenzi omuhle emuntwini obuthakathaka emzimbeni, ukuthi yena usiliswe ngani;
Ibhaga lelo tubhuywanga ga shitendi sha mmbone shatendelwe mundu aaliji nangwabha jula shashite lamiywa,
10 kakwaziwe yini lonke laso sonke isizwe sakoIsrayeli, ukuthi ngebizo likaJesu Kristu umNazaretha, lina elambethelayo, uNkulunkulu owamvusayo kwabafileyo, ngaye lo umi lapha phambi kwenu esesilile.
bhai, mmanganya na bhandu bhowe bha pa Ishilaeli nnapinjikwanga mmumanyanje kuti, aju munduju akunnjimilanga lelo ali alamile kwa mashili ga lina lya a Yeshu Kilishitu Bhanashaleti bhumwaakomelenje munshalabha bhala, ikabheje a Nnungu gubhaayushiye.
11 Yena lo uyilitshe elaliwa yini abakhi, eseliyinhloko yengonsi.
Bhenebha ni bhatashiywe Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo kuti. ‘Liganga limwalikanilenje mmanganya mmashenganga, nnaino lishibha liganga likulu lya pandumba.’
12 Njalo kalukho usindiso komunye; ngoba kalikho lelinye ibizo ngaphansi kwezulu elinikiweyo phakathi kwabantu, esimele sisindiswe ngalo.
Ntapulo ukaapatikana kuka mundu juna jojowe, pabha pashilambolyo, twangapegwa lina lika mundu juna lya kututapula.”
13 Kwathi bebona isibindi sikaPetro loJohane, njalo besazi ukuthi babengabantu abangafundanga njalo bengabantu nje, bamangala, njalo babazi ukuthi babeloJesu,
Bhanangulungwa bha lukumbi bhala, akuno bhali bhamumanyinji kuti a Petili na a Yowana bhandupe bhangashomanga, gubhakanganigwenje ga kwaabhonanga bhalibheleketanga gwangali bhoga. Gubhamumanyinji kuti pubhalinginji pamo na a Yeshu.
14 kodwa bebona umuntu osilisiweyo emi labo, babengelakuphika lutho.
Ikabheje bhakammonanjeje mundu alamiywe jula ajimi nabhonji, bhangabheleketanga shindu.
15 Kodwa sebebalayile ukuthi baphume phandle emphakathini, bacebisana bodwa,
Kwa nneyo, gubhaamulishenje bhakopokanje nnukumbi mula, gubhalepekenje ashaayenenji bhalikungulukanga.
16 besithi: Sizabenzani lababantu? Ngoba ukuthi isibonakaliso esidumisekayo senziwa yibo, kusobala kubo bonke abahlezi eJerusalema, njalo singekuphike;
Gubhabhuyenenje, “Twaatendanje nndi bhene bhandunjibha? Pabha kila mundu atama pa Yelushalemu pano amumanyi kuti shishitendeka shilapo na uwe tukakombola kutauka shenesho.
17 kodwa ukuze kungabe kusanda phakathi kwabantu, asibaqonqosele ukuthi bangabe besakhuluma lamuntu ngalelibizo.
Ikabheje nkupinga kuibhila shene shindushi shinapunde kushuma kubhandu, twaaleyanje bhanakungulukanje na mundu jojowe ga lina lya a Yeshu.”
18 Basebebabiza, babalaya ukuthi bangakhulumi lakanye njalo bangafundisi ngebizo likaJesu.
Kwa nneyo gubhaashemilenje kabhili nkati, gubhaalimbiyenje bhanakungulukanje pa lugwinjili na wala bhanaajiganyanje bhandu ga mashili ga a Yeshu.
19 Kodwa uPetro loJohane babaphendula bathi: Yehlukanisani ukuthi kulungile phambi kukaNkulunkulu ukulalela lina kuloNkulunkulu.
Ikabheje a Petili na a Yowana gubhaajangwilenje. “Nng'ukumulanje mwaashayenenji, shammbone shei, kumpilikanishiyanga mmanganya eu kwaapilikanishiya a Nnungu?
20 Ngoba thina kasilakuyekela ukukhuluma izinto esizibonileyo lesizizwileyo.
Pabha uwe tukaleka bheleketa ga ituibhweni na ituipilikene.”
21 Kwathi sebebaqonqosele futhi, babayekela bahamba; bengatholi lutho lokuthi bangabajezisa njani, ngenxa yabantu, ngoba bonke badumisa uNkulunkulu ngalokho okwenzakeleyo.
Bhai bhanangulungwa bha lukumbi bhala gubhaakalipilenje kwa kaje, kungai gubhaaleshelelenje. Bhangaaukumulanga pabha bhandunji bhowe bhatendaga kwaakuyanga a Nnungu kwa ligongo lya gakoposhele gala.
22 Ngoba umuntu wayeleminyaka edlula amatshumi amane esenziwa kuye lesisibonakaliso seselapho.
Mundu alamiywe jula paaliji jwa yaka ya punda makumi nsheshe.
23 Kwathi sebeyekelwe basuka baya kwabakibo, bababikela konke abapristi abakhulu labadala abakutshiloyo kubo.
A Petili na a Yowana shangupe bhakaleshelelwanjeje, gubhapitengenenje kwa bhaakulupalila ajabhonji, gubhaatalashiyenje yowe ibhabhalanjilwenje na bhakulungwanji bha bhaabhishila na bhanangulungwa.
24 Kwathi bona sebezwile baphakamisela ilizwi nganhliziyonye kuNkulunkulu, bathi: Nkosi, wena unguNkulunkulu owenza izulu lomhlaba lolwandle lakho konke okukukho;
Bhalabhonji bhakapilikananjeje genego, gubhatemingenenje pamo nikwaajuga a Nnungu bhalinkutinji, “Mmakulungwa, mmwe mpengenye shilambolyo na bhaali na yowe ili nkati jakwe!
25 owathi ngomlomo wenceku yakho uDavida: Kungani abezizwe bexokozela, labantu banakane okuyize?
Mmwe mwaatendile bhatumishi bhenu, ainabhetu a Daudi, bhabhelekete kwa mashili gaka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo kuti, ‘Kwa nndi bhailambo ina bhashishimwanga? Pakuti bhandunji bhanaatendanga lukumbi?
26 Amakhosi omhlaba ema, lababusi bahlangana ndawonye ukumelana leNkosi, lokumelana loGcotshiweyo wayo;
Bhapalume bha shilambolyo bhashikwishimilikanga, na bhatawala bhashiimana pamo nkwaakana Bhakulungwa na a Kilishitu bhabho.’
27 ngoba isibili bahlangana ndawonye bemelane leNdodana yakho engcwele uJesu, owayigcobayo, bonke uHerodi loPontiyusi Pilatu, kanye labezizwe labantu bakoIsrayeli,
“Pabha, kweli a Elode na a Pontio Pilato na bhandunji bha pa Ishilaeli na bhandunji bha ilambo ina bhaimenenje pannjini pano, nkwaakana a Yeshu Bhatumishi bhenu bha Ukonjelo bhumwaagwile.
28 ukwenza konke isandla sakho lecebo lakho elakumisa phambili ukuthi kwenzeke.
Elo, bhashinkuimananga nkupinga bhatendanje gene gumwatumbilile na panga bhukalago kwa mashili genu mmayene malinga shimwapinjile.
29 Njalo ngalesisikhathi, Nkosi, khangela ukusonga kwabo, unike izinceku zakho ukuthi zikhulume ilizwi lakho ngesibindi sonke,
Ikabheje nnaino, Mmakulungwa nnole shibhakuti kutujogoyanga. Ntushimilishe tulunguye lilobhe lyenu gwangali jogopa.
30 ngokuthi welule isandla sakho ukusilisa, lokuthi kwenziwe izibonakaliso lezimangaliso ngebizo leNdodana yakho engcwele uJesu.
Nngoloye nkono gwenu mwaalamyanje bhandu. Ntende ilangulo na ilapo kwa mashili ga lina lya a Yeshu Bhatumishi bhenu bha Ukonjelo.”
31 Kwathi sebekhulekile kwazanyazanyiswa indawo ababebuthene kuyo, basebegcwaliswa bonke ngoMoya oNgcwele, basebekhuluma ilizwi likaNkulunkulu ngesibindi.
Bhakamaliyanjeje kujuga Nnungu, pene pubhaimenenje pala pakutenganywaga, na bhowenji gubhagumbelwenje na Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo. Bhowe gubhapundilenje kulunguya lilobhe lya a Nnungu gwangali jogopa.
32 Lexuku labakholwayo lalinhliziyonye lomoya munye; njalo kungekho oyedwa owathi ezintweni alazo ngezakhe, kodwa bahlanganyela izinto zonke.
Nkumbi gowe gwa bhaakulupalila pugwaaliji na ntima gumo na ng'aniyo yabhonji imope. Jwakwapi akwetele shindu shakwe, ikabheje bhatendaga gabhana indu yowe ibhakwetenje.
33 Langamandla amakhulu abaphostoli baveza ubufakazi bokuvuka kweNkosi uJesu, lomusa omkhulu waba phezu kwabo bonke.
Mitume bhatendaga kong'ondelanga kwa mashili kuyuka kwa Bhakulungwa a Yeshu, na a Nnungu gubhaapelenje mboka yaigwinji.
34 Ngoba kwakungekho futhi oswelayo phakathi kwabo; ngoba bonke ababengabanikazi bemihlaba kumbe izindlu, bathengisa baletha intengo zalokho okuthengisiweyo,
Akapagwaga wala mundu jumo atubhilwaga na shindu, pabha bhakwetenje migunda eu nyumba bhatendaga ushanga
35 bayibeka enyaweni zabaphostoli; njalo kwabelwa ngulowo lalowo njengokuswela kwakhe.
nikwaakamuyanga mitume ela ila, nigabhanya kwa kila mundu malinga shapingaga.
36 Kwathi uJose owabizwa ngabaphostoli ngokuthi nguBarnabasi, okuyikuthi ngokuphendulelwa, indodana yenduduzo, umLevi, umKuprosi ngokuzalwa,
Bhashinkupagwa Bhalawi bhamo, bha ku Kipulo, lina lyabho a Yoshepu, mitume pubhaashemangaga a Bhanabha, malombolelo gakwe “Mundu ataga ntima”.
37 elesiqinti, wasithengisa, waletha imali, wayibeka enyaweni zabaphostoli.
Na bhalabho bhashinkukola nngunda, gubhaushiye, gubhatolile ela ila gubhapite kamuya kwa ashimitume.
