Isho shikabhombighwa mu mashiku agha chaaka icha Mikati iMishita Kulula.†12:3 Ichaaka icha Mikati iMishita Kulula Bhelenga ishu ilya IPasaka ku Mashu aMaheesha. 4 Bhwo bhaamukola, bhakamubhiika mu nyumba iya bhapinyighwa muumwo mukabha ni fibhughutila finna ifya bhashikali bhanna abha kumulindilila. UHelooti akabha iinongʼonite ukumufumya uPeeteli nu kumulonga mundaashi mu bhandu bhwo ichaaka chaakinda. 5 Mu mashiku ghala ghaagho uPeeteli akapinyighwa mu nyumba iya bhapinyighwa, aBhakilisiti bhakeendelelagha ukumwipuutila ku ndumbula yooshi kwa Chaala.

6 Pabhushiku, bhwo ishiku likaali ukufika liilyo uHelooti akabhaatika ukumufumya nu kumulonga uPeeteli pabhwelu, uPeeteli akabha aghonite mu nyumba iya bhapinyighwa pakati pa bhashikali bhabhili bhwo apinyiighwe utukono twake ni minyololo mibhili. Abhashikali abhanine bhabhili bhakalindililagha pa mulyango umukulu ughwa nyumba iya bhapinyighwa. 7 Nakalinga, ughwandumi ughwa Malafyale uChaala akasetuka, akiima mu nyumba iya bhapinyighwa muumwo uPeeteli akabha, ubhwelu bhukabhalisha mu nyumba yila. Ughwandumi yula akamupaata uPeeteli pa lubhafu ukuti amulamushe, akamubhuula akati, “Ghwe Peeteli, lamusha lubhilo!” Po iminyololo yiiyo bhakamupinya uPeeteli mu tukono yikaabhuka, yikaghwa paase. 8 Ughwandumi yula akamubhuula uPeeteli akati, “Ipinya imyenda yaako, fwala ni filato.” Bhwo uPeeteli aamala ukubhomba isho, ughwandumi yula akamubhuula akati, “Fwala ikoti lyako, ingongaghe!”

9 Po uPeeteli akafuma mu nyumba iya bhapinyighwa yila, akaanda ukumukonga ughwandumi yula. Akabhalilo kooshi ako uPeeteli atakashaaghanianga ukuti shiisho ughwandumi akashibhombagha shikabha sha nalooli, akiinongʼonagha ukuti akachibhonagha chisetuka. 10 UPeeteli nu ghwandumi yula bhakaghenda pa bhashikali bhaabho bhakalindililagha pa mulyango umukulu ughwa kwanda na bhaabho bhakabha pa mulyango ughwa bhubhili chishita kubhabhona. Po bhakafika pa mulyango umukulu ughwa cheela ughwa kwingilila mu kaaya akakulu. Ichiighi icha mulyango umukulu ghula chikiighuka cheene, bhoope bhakafuma kuuse. Bhwo bhaaghenda umusebho ghumo, ughwandumi yula akamuleka uPeeteli mwene.

11 Po uPeeteli akashaaghania shiisho shikabhoneka, akiiyughaania mwene akati, “Ulu naamanya nalooli ukuti uMalafyale uChaala amutumite ughwandumi ghwake, ukuti aamboke mu tukono utwa Helooti uAghilipa na ku mabhiibhi ghooshi, ghaagho aBhayuuta bhaasubhaaliile ukuti uHelooti indiaambombele.”

12 Bhwo uPeeteli aashimanya isho, akabhuuka ku nyumba iya Maliiya, ungʼina ughwa Yoohani yuuyo bhakamwitishanga ingamu iya Maalika. Mu nyumba iyo, bhakabhungaana abhandu abhingi bhaabho bhakamwipuutagha uChaala. 13 Bhwo uPeeteli iighusha pa chiighi icha mulyango umukulu ughwa lupaso ulwa nyumba iyo, umubhombi yumo umulindu yuuyo ingamu yaake akabha ghwi Loota akabhuuka ku chiighi pakumutesha umundu yuuyo akiighushanga. 14 Bhwo umulindu yula aalimanya ishu ukuti lya Peeteli, akasekela leka, akiibhwa nu kumwighulila ichiighi, akakinda lubhilo nu kwingila mu nyumba, akabhabhuula abhiitiki abhanine akati, “Mwe bhiitiki bhanyiitu, uPeeteli iimite paase pa mulyango umukulu!” 15 Abheene bhakamubhuula bhakati, “Ghwe Loota, ghwabha ni chifunde!” Loole umwene akeendelela ukushimikisha ukuti sha nalooli. Po bhakamwamula bhakati, “Uyo ghwandumi ghwake!” 16 Loole mu kabhalilo ako uPeeteli akeendelelagha ukwighusha. Po bhakabhuuka, bhakiighula ichiighi, bhakamubhona ukuti ghwe yuuyo nalooli, bhakaswigha leka. 17 UPeeteli akabhiimikila akakono ukuti bhasumbe, akabhapangila muumwo uMalafyale uChaala akamufumikisha mu nyumba iya bhapinyighwa. Akabhabhuula akati, “Ishi shiisho shaabhombighwa, mubhuule uYaakobhu na bhiitiki abhanyiitu abhanine.” Po uPeeteli akatiilaapo pala, akabhuuka pabhuyo ubhunine.

18 Bhwo bhwacha pangeelo, abhashikali bhala bhakooghopa leka paapo bhatakamanya shiisho shikamwagha uPeeteli. 19 Bhwo uHelooti aapulika ukuti uPeeteli afumite mu nyumba iya bhapinyighwa yila, akabhalaghila abhashikali bhaake ukuti bhamulonde ngaani, bhoope bhakabhuuka pakumulonda, loole bhatakamwagha. Po akabhabhuusha bhaabho bhakamulindililagha ukuti bhamulingaanie. Bhwo bhaapootwa ilya kumwamula, akalaghila ukuti bhaghoghighwe.

Po uHelooti akatiila mu chiisu icha Yuteeya, akabhuuka nu kwikala mu kaaya aka Kayisaaliya ku kabhalilo.

20 Bhwo umalafyale uHelooti uAghilipa akwikala mu chiisu icha Kayisaaliya chila, akabhakalalila leka abhandu abha mu kaaya aka Tiilo na bha mu Sindoni. Po abhandu abha twaya tubhili utwo bhakalonda isila iya kuti bhafwane naghwe paapo bhakasubhaalilagha ukughula ifindu ukufuma mu chiisu chaake. Po bhakayugha nu mundu yumo yuuyo ingamu yaake akabha ghwi Bhulaasito ukuti abhe kulubhafu lwabho. UBhulaasito akabha mundu ughwa pamwanya yuuyo akabha musubhaalilighwa leka mu bhulongoshi ubhwa malafyale uHelooti. 21 Ishiku liilyo umalafyale akalisala ukuti akomaane nabho likafika. Po akafwala imyenda yaake iya bhunyafyale, akiikala pa chitengu chaake icha bhunyafyale, akaanda ukuyugha mundaashi mu bhandu bhala bhooshi bhaabho bhakabhungaana pabhuyo bhula. 22 Po ichilundilo icha bhandu chikaanda ukuywegha chikati, “Ishu liilyo tukulipulika litaa lya mundu, loole lya chaala yumo mu bhochaala bhiitu!” 23 Bhwo bhaamupaala uHelooti ulwo, umwene atakabhabhuula abhandu abho ukuti uChaala mwene ghwe yuuyo akulondighwa ukupaalighwa. Po mu kabhalilo kala kala ughwandumi ughwa Malafyale uChaala akamughwisha uHelooti paase, injoka isha mukati shikamupelela ubhubhafu ubhukali, akafwa.

24 Bhwo umalafyale uHelooti aafwa, ishu ilya Chaala likeendelelagha ukufumukwa ku bhandu, aBhakilisiti bhakoongelagha ukubhaala leka. 25 Mu kabhalilo kala kala bhwo uBhalinabha nu Saabhuli bhaamaliisha imbombo iya kubhiika indalama isha kubhaafwa abhiitiki bhaabho bhakiikalagha mu kaaya aka Yelusaleemu, bhakatiila mu kaaya ako nu kubhuuka mu kaaya aka Antiyokiya, bhwo bhali pamupeene nu Yoohani yuuyo ingamu yaake inine akabha ghwi Maalika.
