1 Bhwo isho shaakinda, uPaabhuli akatiila mu kaaya aka Aseeni nu kubhuuka mu kaaya aka Kolinti. 2 Bhwo ali mu kaaya ako, uPaabhuli akakomaana nu Muyuuta yumo yuuyo ingamu yaake akabha ghwi Aakila, yuuyo akapaapighwa mu chiisu icha Ponto. UAakila akabha nu mukashi yuuyo ingamu yaake akabha ghwi Puliisika. Abhandu abha bhakasaama ukufuma mu kaaya aka Looma mu chiisu icha Itaaliya ku nongwa iya kuti umalafyale uKilabhundiyo akalaghila ukuti aBhayuuta bhooshi bhatiileemwo mu chiisu icho. Po uPaabhuli akabhuuka pakubhatesha. 3 UAakila nu mukashi bhakabhombagha imbombo iya kutendekesha amatembe. Ku nongwa iya kuti uPaabhuli ghwepe akayimanya imbombo iyo, po akashaala kula kula nu kwanda ukutendekesha amatembe pamupeene nabho. 4 Lyoshi ishiku ilya Sabhati, bhwo uPaabhuli iingila mu sinaghoghi, akiikaakilagha ukuyughisania na Bhayuuta na bhaabho bhataa Bhayuuta ukuti abhapyeleshe bhoope bhiitike ifimanyisho fyake.

5 Mu kabhalilo ako, uSiila nu Tiimoti bhakiisa ukufuma mu kaaya aka Bhelooya mu chiisu icha Makendooniya. Bhwo bhaafika, uPaabhuli akiifumya akabhalilo kaake kooshi ukulumbilila ishu ilya Chaala ku Bhayuuta nu kubhabhuula ukuti uYeesu ghwi Mesiiya. 6 Loole aBhayuuta bhakamukaana nu kumutuka uPaabhuli. Po uPaabhuli akakungʼunda ulufumbi ukufuma mu myenda yaake ukulangisha ukuti bhatakamuhobhoshanga uChaala, akabhabhuula akati, “Ibhanda lyinyu libhe pa mitu yiinyu!* 18:6 Ibhanda lyinyu libhe pa mitu yiinyu Kwo kuti, linga uChaala akubhalonga umwe, indiyibhe nongwa yiinyu, yitaa nongwa yangu. Une nee mwelu paapo naabhomba shiisho ingulondighwa ukubhomba. Ukwandila ulu, ingubhaleka umwe nu kubhuuka pakulumbilila ishu ilya Chaala ku bhandu bhaabho bhataa Bhayuuta.”

7 Bhwo aamala ukuyugha amashu agho, uPaabhuli akafumaamwo mu sinaghoghi yila. Bhwo aafuma, akabhuuka nu kwingila mu nyumba iya mundu yumo yuuyo atakabha Muyuuta, yuuyo ingamu yaake akabha ghwi Tiito Yuusito. UTiito Yuusito akabha mundu yuuyo akamwipuutagha uChaala pamupeene nu kuti atakabha Muyuuta. Inyumba yaake yikabha kupiipi ni sinaghoghi. 8 Umulongoshi ughwa sinaghoghi iyo akabha ghwi Kilisipo. UKilisipo pamupeene na bhooshi abha mu nyumba yaake bhakamwitika uMalafyale uYeesu. Soona, aBhakolinti abhingi bhaabho bhakamupulikishanga uPaabhuli bhwo akulumbilila, bhoope bhakamwitika uMalafyale uYeesu nu kwoshighwa.

9 Ishiku limo pabhushiku, uMalafyale uYeesu akamusetukila uPaabhuli, akamubhuula akati, “Ghwe Paabhuli, manye ghwoghopaghe, endelelagha ukulumbilila. Manye usumbaghe na kaakanandi. 10 Paapo indi pamupeene nuughwe. Ataliipo umundu naayumo yuuyo abhaghiile ukughela ukukufulasha ku nongwa iya kuti indi na bhiitiki bhingi leka mu kaaya aka.” 11 Po uPaabhuli akiikala mu kaaya aka Kolinti ichinja chimo ni myeshi mihaano na ghumo (6) bhwo akwendelela ukulumbilila ku bhandu indumi ukufuma kwa Chaala.

12 Mu kabhalilo ako, uNgaliyo akabha mulongoshi ughwa chiisu icha Akaya. Bhwo uNgaliyo akulongosha ichiisu icho, abhalongoshi abha Bhayuuta bhakiitikana pamupeene, bhakamukola uPaabhuli nu kubhuuka naghwe ku bhulongi. 13 Bhwo bhaafika naghwe kwa Ngaliyo, bhakamusitaaka, bhakayugha bhakati, “Ghwe songo, umundu uyu akubhamanyisha abhandu mu kaaya ukuti bhamwipuutaghe uChaala ku sila yiiyo yili pashima ni ndaghilo shiitu.”

14 Loole bhwo uPaabhuli akulonda ukuyugha, uNgaliyo akabhabhuula aBhayuuta akati, “Pulikisha mwe Bhayuuta umwe! Linga mukumusitaaka umundu uyu ku nongwa iya kuti ali ni nongwa pamu abhombite ubhubhiibhi ubhukulu bhumo, po kaali kiisa ukuti imbapulikishe akiisa. 15 Loole ku nongwa iya kuti mukumusitaaka ku sha mashu, ingamu ni sha ndaghilo shiinyu, mukulondighwa ukutumula nu kumaliisha yumwemwe, paapo une indakulonda ukubha mulongi ughwa nongwa isho.” 16 Po uNgaliyo akabhalaghila abhashikali bhaake ukuti bhabhakiishe aBhayuuta bhala pa chitengu chaake icha bhulongi. 17 Po ichilundilo icha bhandu bhooshi bhakamukola umulongoshi ughwa sinaghoghi yuuyo ingamu yaake akabha ghwi Sositeene, bhakamukoma pandaashi pa chitengu icha bhulongi chila. Pamupeene nu kuti uNgaliyo akabhabhonagha bhwo bhakubhomba shooshi isho, poope atakabhomba naakamu, akabhalekaashe.

18 Bhwo isho shaakinda, uPaabhuli akeendelela ukwikala mu kaaya aka Kolinti ku mashiku amingi pamupeene na bhiitiki abhanine. Pabhumalilo, akabhalagha, akakwela ingalabha, akabhuuka nu kufika mu kaaya aka Kenikeleya bhwo alongosaniishe nu Puliisika pamupeene nu Aakila. Bhwo akaali ali mu Kenikeleya, uPaabhuli akamwa ichingʼwili chaake ukulangisha ukuti aamaliisha ululaghano lwake kwa Chaala. Bhwo isho shaabhombighwa, uPaabhuli pamupeene nu Aakila nu Puliisika bhakakwela ingalabha nu kubhuuka ku chiisu icha Siiliya. 19 Bhakafika mu kaaya kamu kaako ingamu yaake bhakatingi Efesi. UPaabhuli akabhaleka uAakila nu Puliisika pabhuyo bhula, loole umwene akabhuuka nu kwingila mu sinaghoghi yimo nu kwanda ukuyughisania na Bhayuuta. 20 Po aBhayuuta bhakamusuuma uPaabhuli ukuti iikale pamupeene nabho ku kabhalilo akatali, loole umwene akakaana. 21 Loole bhwo akutiila, akabhalagha, akabhabhuula akati, “Linga uChaala iitikisha, indiingiise kukwinyu soona.” Po akatiila mu kaaya aka Efesi ku sila iya kukwela ingalabha. 22 Ingalabha yila yikafika mu kaaya aka Kayisaaliya. UPaabhuli akiika mu ngalabha yila nu kwanda ukukwela ukubhuuka ku kaaya aka Yelusaleemu pakubhalamuka abhiitiki. Pabhumalilo akiilomuka ukubhuuka mu kaaya aka Antiyokiya mu chiisu icha Siiliya. 23 UPaabhuli akiikala mu kaaya aka Antiyokiya ku mashiku manandi. Po akatiila mu kaaya ako nu kubhuuka mu twaya utwingi tuutwo kubhwandilo akatughendela mu chiisu icha Ghalatiiya ni cha Filighiya. Bhwo ali mu fyisu ifyo, uPaabhuli akabhakasha abhiitiki bhooshi mu lwitiko lwabho.

24 Mu kabhalilo ako, uMuyuuta yumo ukufuma mu kaaya aka Alekisandiliya yuuyo ingamu yaake akabha ghwi Apoolo akiisa mu kaaya aka Efesi. UApoolo akabha mumanyi ughwa kuyugha, soona akaghamanya leka aMasimbo aMeelu. 25 Abhandu bhamu bhakabha bhamumanyishiishe isila iya Malafyale uYeesu, soona akamanyishanga inongwa isha Yeesu ku maka na mu bhwanalooli pamupeene nu kuti akalumanyaashe ulwosho ulwa Yoohani uMwoshi. 26 UApoolo akiingila mu sinaghoghi nu kwanda ukumanyisha iNongwa iNyiisa ku maka. Loole bhwo uAakila nu Puliisika bhaapulikisha ifimanyisho fyake, bhakamwegha uApoolo nu kubhuuka naghwe kukaaya kaabho, bhakaanda ukumumanyisha isila iya Chaala ukuti amanye akiisa ngaani. 27 Po uApoolo akatumula ukubhuuka mu chiisu icha Akaya pakulumbilila ishu ilya Chaala. Abhiitiki abha mu kaaya aka Efesi bhakiitikana naghwe, bhakamukasha, bhakabhasimbila ukalata abhiitiki abhanine abha mu chiisu icha Akaya ukubhasuuma ukuti bhamupokeele uApoolo. Bhwo aafika, akabhaafwa leka abhandu bhaabho bhakamwitika uYeesu ku chisa icha Chaala. 28 Akabhaafwa leka ku sila iya kukaanikana ku maka na bhalongoshi abha Bhayuuta nu kubhapoota pandaashi pa bhandu abhingi. Soona ku sila iya kubhombela aMasimbo aMeelu, uApoolo akashimikishanga nu kubhabhuula ukuti uYeesu ghwe yuuyo ghwi Mesiiya.
