1 Abhaatu bhe ekanisa ya mumugye gwa Yerusaremu, bhakataanga kunyaakibhwa bhukongʼu. Orusiku runo Sitefano yiitirwe, abhiikirirya bhoosi okuruusyamu abheega bhakangʼosa, bhakanyaragana mubhyaaro bhyoosi bhya Yudea na Samaria. 2 Hayo niho abhaatu bhakumwiikirirya Taatabhugya, bhakamubhiika Sitefano no okumwaaramira kwo okumuririra bhukongʼu.

3 Sauri woosi akataanga okusarya abhaatu bhe ekanisa, akabha arasikira enyuumba kwe enyuumba, na arabhahurukya igutu abhiikirirya, abhasubhe na abhakari, no okubhatuura munyuumba ya abhabhohwa.

4 Nawe abhaanabheega bhakanyaaragana, bhakabha bhararaarikira abhaatu Amangʼana Amazomu iguru wa Yeesu ahagiro hoosi hano bhaagiiri. 5 Firipo*Firipo yaari owumwe waabhu wa bharya abhasakirya muhuungati. Rora Amahokya ga Abheega 6:5. akagya mumugye gumwe gwa Samaria, akataanga okubharwaazira abhaatu bhe eyo amangʼana ga Masiya. 6 Abhaatu bhaaru hano bhaamwiitegeereeri Firipo no okurora ebhyeerekenio bhino yaari kubhikora, bhakiitegeerera kwa kaniire kugano yaari aragaamba. 7 Akabha araheebha amasaambwa amabhi kurwa mubhaatu bhaaru, gakabharwamu eno garatema ekituri. Akabha arahorya amagata maaru na abharema. 8 Abhaatu bha mumugye guyo bhakazomererwa bhukongʼu.

9 Mumugye guyo, haari no omuutu wumwe omurogi, eriina ryaaye Simooni. Kwiibhaga itaambi, Simooni ahaaroga no okubharuguurya abhaatu bha Samaria, ariikumya kubha ewe ni muutu mukuru. 10 Abhaatu bhoosi, abhasuuhu kwa abhakuru, bhaari bharamwiitegeerera kwa kaniire, bharabhuga, “Omuutu wuno ano obhunagya bhwa Taatabhugya, bhuno bhukubhirikirwa Obhunagya Obhukuru!” 11 Abhaatu bhakabha bharamwiitegeerera, kwo okubha akabharuguurya kwiibhaga itaambi kwo obhurogi bhwaaye.

12 Nawe hano bhaamwiigwiiri Firipo kyeego yaakubharwaazira Amangʼana Amazomu iguru yo obhutemi bhwa Taatabhugya ni iguru we eriina rya Yeesu Krisito, abhasubhe na abhakari bhakiikirirya, bhakabatiizwa. 13 Simooni woosi akiikirirya Yeesu, akabatiizwa, akabha aramutuniirira Firipo ahagiro hoosi. Hano yaruuzi ebhitiika ne ebhyeerekenio ebhikuru bhino Firipo yaari arabhikora, akaruguura bhukongʼu.

14 Abheega bhano bhaari Yerusaremu, hano bhakiigwa kubha abhaatu bha Samaria bhiikirirye engʼana ya Taatabhugya, bhakabhatumira Petero na Yohana bhagye eyo. 15 Na hano bhaahikiri Samaria, bhakasabhira abhaatu okubha bhabhone no okusuungʼaana Ekoro Muhoreeru, 16 kwo okubha ataariho naabhe owumwe gati waabhu wuno Ekoro yaari amwiikiiri. Ebho bhaari bhabatiizirwe kuriina ryo Omukuru Yeesu eryeene. 17 Niho, Petero na Yohana bhakatuura amabhoko gaabhu kubhiikirirya bhayo, bhakasuungʼaana Ekoro Muhoreeru.

18 Simooni, hano yaruuzi kubha abhaatu bhasuungʼaaniri Ekoro Muhoreeru kwo okutuurirwa amabhoko ga abheega, akabhaha Petero na Yohana eziimbirya, akabhuga, 19 “Muunihe na neenye obhunagya bhuno, okubha abhaatu bhoosi bhano ndaabhatuurire amabhoko gaane, bhasuungʼaane Ekoro Muhoreeru.”

20 Petero akamukyoora, “Eziimbirya zyaazo zisike hamwe na naawe, kwo okubha oriiseega obhuturo bhwa Taatabhugya bhurabhoneka kwe eziimbirya! 21 Awe, otana soondo ahagiro hayo hoosi mumirimo gya Taatabhugya gino, kwo okubha ekoro yaazo etari nzomu mumeeso gaaye. 22 Ambe, wiikyoore otige kimwe obhubhi bhwaazo bhuno, no omusabhe Omukuru, hamwe ariikirirye akwaabhire amiiseego amabhi ga mukoro yaazo. 23 Niruuzi wiizwiiri omugono bhukongʼu, kyo obhururu bhwe endurwe na ni mubhohwa we ebhibhi bhyaazo.”

24 Niho, Simooni akamubhuurira, “Munisabhire ku Mukuru, okubha ritaambona naabhe ingʼana rimwe kugayo gano mugaambiri!”

25 Hano Petero na Yohana bhaamariri kuruusya amangʼana gaabhu no okuraarika Amangʼana iguru wo Omukuru, bhakakyoora Yerusaremu. Hano bhaari kukyoora, bhakaraarika Amangʼana Amazomu kwo okuhitira mumigye myaaru gya Abhasamaria.

26 Orusiku rumwe, maraika wo Omukuru akamubhuurira Firipo, “Bhuuka, ogye orubhaara rwa maamu, enzira yino ekuhita mukibhara okurwa Yerusaremu okweerekera Gaza.” 27 Kyaamwe Firipo akataanga orugeendo rwaaye rwo okugya. Hano yaari munzira, akasikana no omukuru wa Ethiopia, wuno yaari omuzigaru†Omuzigaru ni musubhe wuno bhahaamwiiha okubha atiibhura no omukari kasi abhaakya bho omutemi. no omukaangati we eziimbirya zoosi zya Kandake, marikia wa Kushi, wuno yaari akwiimeererera eziihata zyaaye zyoosi. Woosi yaari agiiri Yerusaremu kumuseengera Taatabhugya, 28 ne eriibhaga riyo yaari arakyoora yiika, akubha yiikeeri mumootoka yaaye yo okurutwa ne efaraasi, arasoma ekitabhu kyo omurooti Isaya.

29 Ekoro Muhoreeru akamubhuurira Firipo, “Noogye oyiisukiirire emootoka yiyo, ogeende nayo.”

30 Niho Firipo akaryaarira haguhi kumootoka yirya, akiigwa omuutu wuyo arasoma ekitabhu kyo omurooti Isaya. Hayo Firipo akamubhuurya, “Gano okusoma oragamenya?”

31 Neewe akamukyoora, “Ndanagyabhwi okumenya, eraabhe atariho omuutu wo okunigarurira?” Okumara omukuru wuyo, akamuginihya Firipo atiire mumootoka yaaye bhiikare hamwe. 32 Omukuru wa Ethiopia wuyo akabha arasoma Amakaamo gano,

34 Omuzigaru wurya akamubhuurya Firipo, “Ndasabha ombuurire, omurooti wuno aragaamba iguru waaye omweene kasi aragaamba iguru wo omuutu owuundi?” 35 Kyaamwe Firipo akataanga na amangʼana gayo, akamurwaazira Amangʼana Amazomu iguru wa Yeesu.

36 Hano bhaari munzira murugeendo ruyo, bhakahika ahagiro hano haari na amaanzi. Omuzigaru omukuru wuyo akamubhuurira Firipo, “Rora, hano hana amaanzi! Ni kigiroki kino kiraanirekye nitabatiizwa?”

[ 37 Firipo akamubhuurira, “Eraabhe oraamwiikirirye Yeesu Krisito kwe ekoro yaazo yoosi, oranagya kubatiizwa.”

Akamubhuurira, “Ndiikirirya kubha Yeesu Krisito ni Mwaana wa Taatabhugya.”] 38 Neewe akaswaagya emootoka yiimeereribhwe. Kyaamwe bhoosi bhabhiri bhakiituuma mumootoka, bhakasikira mumaanzi, Firipo akamubatiiza. 39 Hano bhaarwiiri mumaanzi, Ekoro yo Omukuru ekamusaakura Firipo, no omuzigaru omukuru wuyo ataamuruuzi kweeki, nawe akagya zyaaye arazomererwa. 40 Firipo akatuukira ari mumugye gwa Azota. Akataanga orugeendo rwo okugya mumugye gwa Kaisaria, akahita mumigye ararwaazira abhaatu Amangʼana Amazomu ga Yeesu.
