1 Era Sawulo gaaliŋo gaawagira ehikolwa hyʼohwita Sitefaano.

Hu ludaalo olwene olwo ohuhiyaania abafugiirira Kurisito ohwʼamaani hwatandiha mu Yerusaalemu. Ngʼabafugiirira abahira obungi mu hibuga ehyo nʼotuhiiseho abahwenda badulumaŋo basasanira mu bitundu byʼe Buyudaaya ni Samaliya. 2 Aye ngʼebaayo abasinde abanadiini abaja basiiha omulambo gwa Sitefaano era ohufa huhwe hwabaluma bugali.

3 Aye Sawulo niye gagesyaho ohusihiirisa ehibbubbu hyʼabafugiirira era gatiinanga nyumba hu nyumba nʼajasa abafugiirira abasinde nʼabahasi gabadyedyesa gabadaanya mu komera.

4 Ngʼaŋo abafugiirira bala abasasaana olwʼohubahiyaania batiina ni balomera abaatu ehibono hya Hatonda eyi hiisi mulala hu bo gajanga. 5 Mulala hu bo oyu balanganga baati Filipo nga gehirira atiina mu hirala hu bibuga byomu twale lyʼe Samaliya alomera abaatu baayo ati Yesu*8:5 Oba Yesu Kurisito. njʼoyu Hatonda gafuujaho amate gaaje anoŋole abaatu. 6 Abaatu abeene abangi nga baŋulira ebi Filipo gabalomeranga era nga babona nʼebyamaliholiho ebi gaholanga. Ehyo nga hileetera bangi ohutaayo omwoyo hubi gabalomanga. 7 Ngʼemisambwa jiŋwanga hu baatu abeene abangi ni jaana hwana nʼejanjaasi eryʼamaani. Era bangi aba hyali ni hisanyalahiise ni bataŋanga nʼohwecuusa ko nʼabaleme nga baŋona. 8 Nga ŋabaaŋo esangaalo ebitirifu mu hibuga ehyo.

9 Ŋaahani ŋaaliŋo mu hibuga ehyo omusinde oyu balanganga baati Simooni owaali omuŋeŋa haŋunye era ni geŋunjisa abaatu bosibosi mu Samaliya. Era ni gepaaha ngʼolu ali wa hitalo. 10 Abaatu abeene abangi mu Samaliya ohuŋwa hu baŋaasi ohwolera erala hu begingihiriri baali bamufugiiriramo ni baloma mbo omuutu oyo gaali nje “Maani ga Hatonda” era mbo njʼahihenaho. 11 Abaatu bomu hibuga ehyo bamufugiirirangamo olwohuba gabeŋunjisanga nʼebyobuŋeŋa buwe. 12 Aye ni baŋulira obuhwenda obwʼAmaŋuliro Amalaŋi agaŋamba hu Yesu Kurisito ko nʼobuŋugi wa Hatonda obu Filipo gabalomera nga bafugiirira bababatiza, abasinde nʼabahasi. 13 Ni Simooni omwene yeesi ngʼafugiirira bamubatiza. Ni gabatizibwa ngʼalonderesanga Filipo hiisi eyi gajanga era geŋunjanga ebyamaliholiho ebyʼamaani ebi gabonanga Filipo nʼahola.

14 Abahwenda abaali e Yerusaalemu ni baŋulira baati abaatu bʼe Samaliya baali bafugiiriye ehibono hya Hatonda, nga baŋindihayo Peetero ni Yowaane. 15 Ni boola e Samaliya nga basabira abafugiirira Omwoyo Omutukuvu abeeheho, 16 olwohuba yaali eŋuma wayire mulala hu bafugiirira abo owaali nʼasunire Omwoyo Omutukuvu. Baali bababatihize hubababatiza mu siina lya Yesu Musengwa. 17 Ngʼaŋo Peetero ni Yowaane bata emihono hu hiisi mulala hu bafugiirira abo ngʼamaani gʼOmwoyo Omutukuvu gabamaamira.

18 Simooni ni gabona ati abahwenda abo ni bata emihono hu baatu amaani gʼOmwoyo Omutukuvu gabamaamira, gagesyaho ohuŋa abahwenda abo ebbeesa, 19 nʼabaloma ati, “Keesi mupeho amaani ago hiisi oyu natengaho emihono Omwoyo Omutukuvu amumaamirenga.”

20 Aye nga Peetero amuloma ati, “Hihuŋire era osihiirihire eyo nʼebbeesa jijo! Olwohuba oŋeega oti Omwoyo wa Hatonda bamugula bugule nʼebbeesa! 21 Oŋuma nʼomugabo gwosigwosi mu buŋeeresa buno olwohuba omwoyo gugwo simuluŋamu mu moni ja Hatonda. 22 Olwʼehyo webbwage weŋunderere Hatonda Musengwa ahusoniŋe olwʼohuŋeega otyo mu mwoyo gugwo; 23 olwohuba mbona nga wijuuye egongi era oguuye mwiroŋo eryʼehibi.”

24 Simooni ngʼaloma Peetero ni Yowaane ati, “Musabire Hatonda Musengwa ganjede ŋaŋume wayire hirala hu bibono ebyo ehi njolaho.”

25 Peetero ni Yowaane ni bahena ohulomera abaatu baayo ebiŋamba hu Yesu nʼohubabuulira ehibono hya Hatonda Musengwa, nga baagamayo e Yerusaalemu. Ni baali ni baagama batiinanga balomera abaatu abomu bitahere byʼe Samaliya Amaŋuliro Amalaŋi agaŋamba hu Yesu.

26 Ŋaahani lulala malayika wa Hatonda Musengwa galoma Filipo ati, “Yehirira oŋambe engira ebitira mu lulafu nʼeŋwa e Yerusaalemu nʼetiina mu hibuga hyʼe Gaaza.”

27 Ngʼaŋo Firipo genyoheramo atiina. Ni gaali nʼagenda nga gagaanana nʼomusinde Omwisopiya owaali mulala hu begingihiriri abaŋeeresanga Kandake, habaha omuhasi owaali nʼaŋuga ehyalo ehi balanga baati Esopiya. Omusinde oyo gaali mulaaŋe era nʼali njʼomuŋanika wa Kandake. Omusinde oyo gaali mu lugendo ni gaagamayo engo nʼaŋwa e Yerusaalemu eyi gaali nʼatiinire ohusaba. 28 Mu lugendo lulwe luno gaali gehaaye mu higaali hihye nʼasoma ehitabo hya naabbi Yisaaya. 29 Ngʼaŋo Omwoyo Omutukuvu aloma Filipo ati, “Tiina ogendere ŋaapi nʼehigaali ehyo.” 30 Nga Filipo asesera goola hu higaali hyʼomusinde ola. Ni gahyolaho ngʼamuŋulira nʼasoma ehitabo hya naabbi Yisaaya, nga ko amubuusa ati, “Ebi osoma obitegeera?”

31 Ngʼola amugobolamo ati, “Kadi! Sipanga hubitegeera ohutusaho ni ŋaliŋo obunyonyooye amahulu.” Ni gahena ohuloma atyo ngʼasunga Filipo aniine mu higaali hihye geehale ŋalala ni naye amunyonyole amahulu gabyo. 32 Omusinde oyo gaali asoma ehyaŋandiihiwa ehiroma hiiti,

34 Omusinde ola ngʼabuusa Filipo ati, “Ndomereho. Naabbi oyo gaali aloma hu njʼani? Gaali geromaho omwene oba gaali aloma hu muutu wundi?” 35 Nga Filipo atagihira hu hyaŋandiihiwa ehyene ehyo amulomera Amaŋuliro Amalaŋi agaŋamba hu Yesu.

36 Baali bahitiina nga boola aŋali ehidiba hyʼamaaji. Ngʼomusinde oyo aloma Filipo ati, “Bona! Ehidiba hyʼamaaji kehino! Hola bumbatize.” 37 Ngʼaŋo Filipo amuloma ati, “Nʼoba nʼofugiirira nʼomwoyo mulala, oŋanga ohubatiziwa.” Ngʼomusinde ola amugobolamo ati, “Fugiirira ti Yesu Kurisito Mwana wa Hatonda.”†8:37 Ebbayibbuli ejindi jibula lunyiriri luno. 38 Ngʼaŋo omusinde oyo omwegingihiriri alagira bemeerese ehigaali. Nga Filipo nʼomusinde oyo beeha mu maaji, Filipo amubatiza. 39 Ni baŋwa mu maaji, ngʼaŋo ni naaŋo Omwoyo wa Musengwa atusaŋo Filipo mu moni jʼomusinde ola ndagobolayo humubona nindi. Cooka niye ngʼatiina mu moni nʼolugendo lulwe ni gejuuye esangaalo. 40 Aye Filipo niye gaja ohweyagaana Omwoyo nʼamuŋirire mu hibuga Azooto. Ni gaali eyo ngʼagenda ŋano ni naŋala nʼatiina nʼalomera abaatu Amaŋuliro Amalaŋi mu bibuga byosibyosi ohwola olu goola mu hibuga hyʼe Kayisaaliya.
