1 Entumwa n'abemeezi baliiri eYudeeya bayunva okw'abarhali Bayaahudi nabo bayankiriire eChinwa cha Nnamahanga. 2 Amango Petero azamuukiraga eYerusaleema, abemeezi b'aBayaahudi bamurhonganya, 3 bamubwira ntya: «Ego muza we! Gurhe wajiire omu nju z'abarhali Bayaahudi wamanalya nabo!»

4 Petero aja arhondera kubalira bo byooshi gurhe byalibeere. Ababwira ntya mwazi oku gwindi: 5 «Nyoono naliiri omu gishagala ch'eYopa. Oku ndi nasaliira, nabonekerwa: chintu chiguma chiri nka mwenda munene gifarhirwe hantu hane, chachima gurhengera omu chaalege, chayandagazwa emunda ndi. 6 Nabeere nasuuzuma cho, nabona chiri mo enyama z'amagulu mane, enyama z'elubala, ezibululuka n'enyunyi zibalala omu chaalege. 7 Nayunva omulenge gwambwira ntya: ‹Yimanga Petero, baaga, onalye.› 8 Aliko nashubiza ntya: ‹Nangwa Nnaweerhu! Echintu girhacheesezwe girhanakwaneene kuliibwa girhashubiraga kuja omu buunu bwani!› 9 Oku bwakabiri, omulenge gwashubiza ntya gurhengera empingu: ‹Echi Nnamahanga acheeseze, wooyo orhagirhoolaga oku girhakwaneene kuliibwa!› 10 Ebyoola byabeere byamajirika gasharhu, byooshi byaava byazamuulwa omu mpingu. 11 Ho n'aho, bantu basharhu balintumiirwe gurhengera eKayizariya baahika omu nju rhwaliiri mo. 12 Muuka-Mutagatiifu ambwira mpu ngende nabo buzira kuganganwa. Aba beerhu ndarhu mubwene, bali mperekeeze, rhwanaja omu nju y'omuntu oyirikwa Korineliyo. 13 Oyoola Korineliyo arhubalira gurhe alibwene malahika ayimanga omu nju yaage n'okumubwira ntya: ‹Rhuma abantu eYopa baje gushonda Simooni washembulwaga Petero. 14 Yeewe ye wakubwira ebinwa byakuleerhera obuchunguke, wooyo n'abantu b'omu nju yaawe booshi.› 15 Nabeere narhondera kuderha, Muuka-Mutagatiifu ayandagalira oku bo nk'oku arhuyandagaliraga ko neerhu oku murhondero. 16 Nava nayibuka echiila chinwa Nnaweerhu aderhaga ntya: ‹Yohaana abatiizaga omu menji, aliko mwabo nji mwabatiizwa na Muuka-Mutagatiifu.›*11.16 Osome Bijiro 1.5. 17 Akaba leero Nnamahanga abaheere empaano nguma n'elaala arhuhaaga neerhu amango rhwayemeeraga Nnaweerhu Yeesu-Krisitu, naliiri nde, nyoono, mpu ngale kulwisa Nnamahanga?»

18 Abemeezi b'aBayaahudi bamalire kuyunva ebyoola, barhuleera, banakuuza Nnamahanga n'oku derha ntya: «Gasi Nnamahanga aheere abarhali Bayaahudi nabo enjira y'okuleka ebyaaha byaabo yi baabona akalamo k'esiku n'amango!»

19 Balaala bemeezi bashandaazwaga elugulu w'okuyirhwa kwa Sitefaano, baguma omu bo bagenda guhika omu gihugo ch'eFoyinikiya. Abandi baaja oku chizimba ch'eGipuro, n'abandi baahika omu gishagala ch'eAntiyokiya. Ntaaye bayigiriize eChinwa cha Nnamahanga arhali aBayaahudi bonyine. 20 Aliko ahagarhi kaabo haaba bantu baguma b'eGipuro na ab'omu gishagala ch'eKureene bayinjaga eAntiyokiya, nabo baganiira n'abarhali Bayaahudi n'okubalira bo oMwazi Mwinja gwa Nnaweerhu Yeesu. 21 Obuhashe bwa Nnaweerhu bwaliiri haguma nabo, n'abantu banene bahindamukira Nnaweerhu, baanaba bemeezi.

22 Echigusho ch'abemeezi b'eYerusaleema babeere bayunva ogo mwazi, baarhuma Baranaaba agende eAntiyokiya. 23 Abeere ahika yo, agishwa na Nnamahanga, asiima, n'okuyinginga abemeezi bagendekere guseera ku Nnaweerhu omu mirhima yaabo yooshi. 24 Baranaaba aliiri muntu mwinja, oyunjwizwe Muuka-Mutagatiifu n'obwemeezi. Abantu banene bakulikira Nnaweerhu.

25 Buzinda, Baranaaba aja eTariso gushonda Saawulo. 26 Abeere amubona, amuheeka eAntiyokiya. Baranaaba na Saawulo bamala omwaka gooshi eyi bali bachigusha haguma n'echigusho ch'abemeezi. Banayigiriza abantu banene. Mw'echi gishagala ch'eAntiyokiya mw'abemeezi bahamagalwaga «Bakrisitu» oku burhanzi.

27 Mwamo mango, baleebi baguma bachima gurhenga eYerusaleema kuja eAntiyokiya. 28 Muguma omu bo, oyirikwa Hagabo, ayimanga n'ogurhondera kuleeba n'obuhashe bwa Muuka-Mutagatiifu okw'enzara nene yaaba omu gulu lyooshi. Eyo nzara yava yaaba amango mw'omwami mukulu Kuloode w'eRooma. 29 Abemeezi b'eAntiyokiya baava bahiga gurhumira abemeezi bali balamire eYudeeya oburhabaale, ngasi muguma gukulikirana na okw'agalire. 30 Baagusha esholoolo haguma, bayirhumira abashamuka b'echigusho ch'abemeezi b'eYerusaleema kulengera Baranaaba na Saawulo.
