12 Kukawa kutio olwa awantu wano waawurra Piliipo na alanzia amangʼana aga *Owuami owua Katonda kandi na alanzia amangʼana ku eriina eria Yesu Kristo, waawa no okuganya. Awantu awekikazi na awekisaaza awaawa no okuganya ku amangʼana ago waabatiiswa.Awat 28:23; 3:6 13 Namba Simioni oona yawa no okuganya kandi oona yabatiiswa. Olwa yamala okubatiiswa yaweerako na alonda Piliipo asi-uasi aa Piliipo yagendanga; kandi amankono ne ewintu ewikate-kaate ewia yawona ni Piliipo akola wiamuamba omunwa.
14 Olwa awatumwa awa Yesu awaasigala Yerusaleemu waawurra amangʼana, kiomo awantu awa ku omugizi ogwa Samaria wamiire okuwa no okuganya ku amangʼana aga Katonda, waawatumra Petro ni Yowaana okugia okuwa eyo nawo.Awat 3:1 15 Olwa waatuuka, waasawira awantu awaawanga no okuganya wano mbwe watuukre *Omwoyo Omweru,Awat 2:3–4; 10:44–47 16 aeniki awulao omuntu owawanga na amiire okutuukra Omwoyo Omweru ku awantu awo namba omulala, ni waawanga mala ni wamiire okubatiiswa ku eriina eria *Omwami Yesu Kristo. 17 Nikuemao Petro ni Yowaana waawataako amakono ni waawasawira kandi waatuukra Omwoyo Omweru.Awat 19:1–6
18 Olwa Simioni yawona mbwe okuta okwa Petro ni Yowaana waata amakono gaawu ku awantu kwagera na awantu watuukra Omwoyo Omweru, yafumia amasendi oku-aa awatumwa wanoAwat 6:6 19 na awalaga otino, “Awiifu noona mumpeeko amaani gano, kugere ni nteere amakono gange ku omuntu, omuntu oyo atuukre Omwoyo Omweru.”
20 Petro yamuirania otino, “Origizwe mu omurro ogutafwa, iwue alala na amasendi gaao ago. Oingirizia mbwe oesa okugula ekintu ekia Katonda aesana wusa na amasendi! 21 Iwue owula no omugawo ku emirimo egia Katonda egia tukola gino aeniki omwoyo gwao ngamulootu emberi wa Katonda. 22 Galuka oreke amawi gaao aga okuwa na amaingirizio amawiiwi gano kandi osawe Katonda wukalu kugere ni kuesekana akurekere amawi gaao aga okuwa na amaingirizio aga ori nago mu omwoyo gwao gano, 23 aeniki ni nkuwariira, ori omuntu oizuule ni iyari kandi ori mu owusiwe owua owuoni.”
24 Simioni yalaga Petro ni Yowaana otino, “Awiifu munsawire Katonda kugere ewintu ewia muwoorre ewio witaaza wianyikorra.”Okuf 9:27–28
25 Olwa waamala okulaga awantu amangʼana ku ewintu ewilootu ewia waawona ni wari ni Yesu Kristo, waairana Yerusaleemu. Ku engira ni wairana, waalanzizia awantu awa ku emigizi egia Samaria amangʼana amalootu aga Katonda.
Piliipo abatiisre Omuithoopia
26 Nikuemao, *enyankoi owa Katonda yalaga Piliipo otino, “Fuma oambe engira eya ansi eema Yerusaleemu ne egia Gaaza.” (Engira eno ngekalondwanga.) 27 Kutio Piliipo yatanika olugendo na agia. Ku engira na agia, ya-agaana Omuithoopia *omusowole, owawanga omuntu omunene ino mu ekialo kiawu. Omuntu ono yawanga omuwiiki owa amasendi aga Kandake omwami owekikazi owa Ithoopia. Yawanga na agiire Yerusaleemu okusawa Katonda.Zabu 68:31; 87:4; Zefa 3:10; Isaa 53:3–8 28 Wuno katio yawanga ku engira na airana. Yawanga na aikaale mu egaare ekululwa ne efaraasi, na asoma ebuuki eyajojwa ni Isaaya *omugambi owa Katonda. 29 Omwoyo Omweru ogwa Katonda yalaga Piliipo otino, “Gia owe ampi ne egaare ekululwa eeria.” 30 Kutio Piliipo yasomoka agia aa yalagwa, kandi yawurra Omuithoopia oyo na asoma ebuuki eya Isaaya omugambi owa Katonda. Piliipo yamuwuuzia otino, “Mberi amangʼana aga osoma ago gakuingirra?”
31 Omuithoopia yamuirania otino, “Yaaya, ngʼaganyingirra, mala no omuntu agansanukuriire geeza.” Kutio yasawa Piliipo mbwe aniine aikale nae mu egaare yaae eyo. 32 Mu ebuuki eya Isaaya, omuntu ono yawanga na asoma asi ajojerwe mbwe:
“Yakangasiwua ki igondi eri-irwa okugia okuitwa,
kiomo ekimaatwa ekitameera ni kiwegwako owuvwiri wuakio,
nintio oona yasarigira.
33 Waamusuusia kandi ngawakamukengera ekiina geeza.
Awulao oesa okugamba-gamba ku awiizukulu waae
aeniki owulamu wuae owua ku ekialo wuamalwanga!”Isaa 53:7, 8
34 Omuithoopia oyo yawuuzia Piliipo otino, “Katio ndage tuwone, omugambi owa Katonda ono agamba-gamba ku anu? Agamba-gamba ku iye omwene nakuwa ku omuntu wundi omusaasa?” 35 Piliipo yamutanikra okuema ku amangʼana aga Omuithoopia asomerenga kandi amulaga amangʼana amalootu ku Yesu Kristo.Luuk 24:27
36 Ni waawanga ni wakiari ku engira ni wagia, waaika watuuka asi aa amanzi gari. Kutio omuntu Omuithoopia ono yalaga Piliipo otino, “Wonako! Mpano amanzi gari ano. Kirio kandi ekikagera ndeke okubatiiswa?”Math 28:19
37 [Piliipo yamuganyira otino, “Ee, nyesa mala okukubatiisa no oganyire ku Yesu Kristo no omwoyo gwao gwona.” Omuntu oyo yairania Piliipo mbwe, “Ee, omwoyo gwange guri no okuganya mbwe Yesu Kristo ari Omuzia owa Katonda.”]*Amangʼana agari mu ekika ekia 37 gano gawula mu owungi owua amatu amakulu.
38 Nikuemao omukangasi oyo yalaga awantu waae mbwe waemerezie efaraasi eyamukululanga kandi iye alala ni Piliipo waaika wagia aa amanzi gaawanga. Kutio Piliipo yamubatiisa. 39 Olwa waamala okuema mu amanzi, Omwoyo Omweru ogwa Katonda yatoola Piliipo ao. Omukangasi ono ngakamuwona kandi, ni yagia mala emberi no olugendo lwae, na ari no owusangaavu owungi.1Awaam 18:12 40 Piliipo yaizukira na atuukre Azotuusi kandi yagenda-genda na alanzia amangʼana aga Yesu Kristo mu emigizi giona egiawanga ao nawuno atuuka Kaisaria.Awat 21:8
