Imisebenzi 1
1 Ukulandisa kokuqala ngakwenza, Teyofilu, ngakho konke uJesu aqala kokubili ukukwenza lokukufundisa,
A mueni Tewofile, mu buku ama yitheti ndiyolukila tona vana thonono mambu moso momo matona vanga Yesu ayi makalonga
2 kwaze kwaba lusuku akhutshulwa ngalo, esebalayile ngoMoya oNgcwele abaphostoli ayebakhethile;
nate mu lumbu kioki katombolo ku Diyilu bu kamana vana zithumunu, mu lulendo lu Pheve Yinlongo, kuidi bamvuala ba kasobula.
3 wazibonakalisa futhi kubo ephilile emva kokuhlupheka kwakhe ngobufakazi obunengi obuqinisekileyo, wabonwa yibo okwensuku ezingamatshumi amane, ekhuluma ngezinto ezimayelana lombuso kaNkulunkulu.
Bu kamana mona ziphasi, wukimonikisa wu moyo kuidi bawu mu kuba monisa bidimbu biwombo. Wukimonisa kuidi bawu mu makumaya ma bilumbu ayi wuba kuba yolukilanga mambu ma Kipfumu ki Nzambi.
4 Kwathi ehlangene labo, wabalaya ukuthi bangasuki eJerusalema, kodwa balindele isithembiso sikaBaba, elasizwa ngami;
Bu kadia yawu va kimosi, wuba vana lutumunu ti: —Lubika totuka mu Yelusalemi vayi bavingila tsila yi Tata yoyi luwa kuidi minu.
5 ngoba ngeqiniso uJohane wabhabhathiza ngamanzi, kodwa lina lizabhabhathizwa ngoMoya oNgcwele kungakadluli insuku ezinengi.
Bila Yowani mu nlangu kabotikila, muaki fioti kuandi fisiedi buna lueka botama mu Pheve Yinlongo.
6 Kwathi sebebuthene bambuza bathi: Nkosi, uzabuyisela umbuso kuIsrayeli kulesisikhathi yini?
Bu bakutakana va kimosi, bamvuala banyuvula: —A Pfumu, buna yayi thangu weka mvutudila kipfumu ki Iseli e?
7 Wasesithi kubo: Kakusikho okwenu ukwazi izikhathi kumbe imizuzu ayimisileyo uBaba ngawakhe amandla;
Wuba vutudila: —Disi diambu dieno ko mu zaba zithangu ayi zitsungi zikubika Tata mu lulendo luandi.
8 kodwa lizakwemukela amandla, esefikile phezu kwenu uMoya oNgcwele; njalo libe ngabafakazi bami eJerusalema kanye layo yonke iJudiya leSamariya, njalo kuze kube semkhawulweni womhlaba.
Vayi Pheve Yinlongo bu kela kuiza va beno; buna luela tambula lulendo ayi luela ba bambangi bama tona mu Yelusalemi, mu Yuda dioso, mu Samali ayi nate muna mu sukisina ntoto.
9 Kwathi esetshilo lezizinto, wakhutshulwa bekhangele, leyezi lamsusa emehlweni abo.
Buna kamana tuba mambu momo, bammona wutombolo ku diyiluayi dituti dimosi dimfuka va meso mawu.
10 Bathi besajolozele ezulwini, esenyuka, njalo khangela, amadoda amabili ema labo elezembatho ezimhlophe,
Bu basungimina tala ku diyilu, mu phila kaba nkuendila, talababakala buadi bavuata minledi miphembi batelama va ndambuꞌawu;
11 njalo athi: Madoda maGalili, limeleni lijolozele ezulwini? UJesu lo, osuswe kini wenyukiselwa ezulwini, uzabuya ngokunjalo ngendlela elimbone esiya ngayo ezulwini.
babakamba: —A beno basi Ngalili, a bila mbi lutelimini vava bu lulembo talanga ku diyilu e? Yesu diodi dimeni tombolo ku diyilu va khatitsikꞌeno, wela buela vutuka boso lummuenini kendidi ku Diyilu.
12 Basebebuyela eJerusalema bevela entabeni ethiwa ngeyoMhlwathi, eseduze leJerusalema, ummango wohambo lwesabatha.
Buna bamvuala bavutuka ku Yelusalemi bu babotuka va mongo wu minti mi olive, mongo wowo wuba nduka-nduka mu tezo ki nana di zikhama di zimetele mu tula ku Yelusalemi.
13 Kwathi sebengenile, benyukela endlini ephezulu, lapho ababehlala khona, uPetro loJakobe loJohane loAndreya, uFiliphu loTomasi, uBartolomewu loMathewu, uJakobe kaAlfewu loSimoni umZelothi, loJudasi kaJakobe.
Muna batula ku divula, bakuma ku yilu banga; kuawu baba nkutikininanga. Kuna kuba: Piela, Yowani, Zaki, Andele, Filipi, Toma, Balitelemi, Matayi, Zaki muana Alife, Simoni muisi dikabu di Zeloti ayi Yuda muana Zaki.
14 Bonke laba baphikelela bengqondonye emkhulekweni lekuncengeni, kanye labesifazana loMariya unina kaJesu, njalo labafowabo.
Babo mu kithuadi kimosi baba nkutakananga bilumbu bioso mu diambu di sambila va kimosi ayi baketo ayi Maliya ngudi yi Yesu, ayi bakhomba zi Yesu.
15 Kwathi ngalezonsuku uPetro wasukuma phakathi kwabafundi, kwakulexuku labantu ndawonye elalingaba likhulu lamatshumi amabili, wathi:
Mu bilumbu beni, Piela wutelama va khatitsika bakhomba. Thalu yi batu bakutakana baba nduka-nduka khama yimosi ayi makumuadi.
16 Madoda bazalwane, kwakumele ukuthi lumbhalo ugcwaliswe, uMoya oyiNgcwele awukhuluma ngaphambili ngomlomo kaDavida ngoJudasi, owayengumkhokheli walabo abambambayo uJesu,
Wuba kamba: —A bakhomba, bufueni masonoko matuba Pheve Yinlongo mu munu Davidi madedakana bu kayolukila Yuda, mutu wowo wutuadisa batu bobo bakanga Yesu.
17 ngoba wayebalwe kanye lathi, njalo wemukela isabelo salinkonzo.
Niandi wuba wumosi mu beto, niandi mamvandi wutambula kiandi kuku mu kisalu kiaki tutambula.
18 Lo-ke wathenga isiqinti ngomvuzo wobubi, wawa ngekhanda waqhekezeka phakathi, lemibilini yakhe yonke yachitheka.
Mu zimbongo ziozi bamfuta, mu diambu di mambimbi mandi, ziawu kasumbila tsola. Niandi wubua ntu wutuama ku tsi, wutumbu buka vumu, midi mioso mimana totuka va nganda.
19 Njalo kwaziwa yibo bonke abakhileyo eJerusalema, saze sabizwa lesosiqinti ngolimi lwakibo ngokuthi iAkeldama, okuyikuthi iSiqinti segazi.
Basi Yelusalemi boso bawa tsangu beni; diawu babiekila tsola beni mu mbembo awu “Akelidama” bu dinsundula: “Tsola yi menga”.
20 Ngoba kulotshiwe egwalweni lweziHlabelelo ukuthi: Umuzi wakhe kawube lunxiwa, njalo kungabi khona ohlala kuwo; lokuthi: Omunye kathathe ubuphathi bakhe.
Muaki masonama mu Minkunga ti: Tala! Bika nzoꞌandi yiba dio yambi, mu bika mutu kabika mu kala; bosi mutu wunkaka kabonga kisalu kiandi.
21 Ngakho kumele ukuthi kulawomadoda ayehamba lathi kuso sonke isikhathi lapho iNkosi uJesu yayingena njalo iphuma phakathi kwethu,
Diawu bufueni tusobula mutu wumosi mu batu bobo babedi kutulandakananga mu thangu Pfumu Yesu kabedi zinganga yeto va kimosi,
22 kusukela ebhabhathizweni lukaJohane, kwaze kwaba lusuku akhutshulwa ngalo kithi, omunye wabo kabe ngumfakazi kanye lathi wokuvuka kwakhe.
tona thangu Yowani kabotika nate mu lumbu kioki katombolo va khatitsikꞌeno, wumosi mu bawu fueti kala mbangi banga beto mu diambu di mfulukulu yi Yesu.
23 Basebemisa ababili, uJosefa othiwa nguBarsaba, othiwa futhi nguJustusi, loMathiyasi.
Basobula batu buadi: Zozefi baba ntedilanga “Balisabasi”. Dizina diandi dinkaka “Yusitusi”; ayi Matiasi.
24 Basebekhuleka besithi: Wena Nkosi, wena owaziyo inhliziyo zabo bonke, tshengisa kulaba ababili oyedwa, omkhethileyo,
Bu baba nsambila, buna batuba: —A Pfumu, ngeyo zebi mintima mi batu boso, wutumonisa nani wusobula mu batu buadi baba
25 ukwemukela isabelo kulinkonzo lobuphostoli, uJudasi aphambuka kuso, ukuthi aye endaweni engeyakhe.
muingi katambula kuku ki kisalu kiandi ayikimvuala kiandi, kisalu kioki kibika Yuda wuyenda ku buangu kiandi.
26 Basebebapha inkatho yabo; lenkatho yadla uMathiyasi, wasebalwa kanye labaphostoli abalitshumi lanye.
Bosi bata wadi. Wadi yibuila Matiasi ayi niandi wubuelama mu dikabu di kumi mvuala wumosi.
