¹ Baada ja maghambo aagho, Paulo ghakabhukanga Athene kuja Korintho. ² Uuko ghaka mupatanga Muyahudi gho ajitilwe Akwila mutnut ghwa kabhila lya Ponto, nyene no mukasi ghwaaje gho ajitilwe Prisila bha kesile kufuma kulya Italia, kusabhaabhu Klaudia ghaka kalilanga bhayahudi bhoonse bhafume Roma; Paulo ghakesanga kumwaabho; ³ Paulo ghakekalanga no kwila milimo naabho kwaani nyene alikwila mulimo bho bhufanene noghwa kwa abho. Bheene bhakabhele ni bhalyo helesya mahema. ⁴ Paulo ghakatendanga naabho kwi sinagogi kila nfuku ja Sabato. Ghakabhatekanga bhayahudi kumwi no Bhagiliki. ⁵ Lakini Sila no Timotheo mukwisa kufuma ku Makedonia, Paulo ghakasukumwanga no mweegho kubhashuhudia bhayahudi kubha Yesu oh nyene Kristo. ⁶ Bhwakati bhayahudi ho bhakamupinganga no kumudhihaki, tetyo Paulo ghaka kung'untanga ighwanda lya aje ha mbele jaabho, no kubhabhalila, "Malaso ghaku mweenyu no ghabhe hatunde ja mitwe syeenyu uumwe bheene; Uune sili no hatia. Kufumilijila bha Mataifa". ⁷ Tetyo ghakabhukanga kufuma halya ghakajanga ku nyumba jake Tito Yusto, muntu gho alikumutumi kila Kabhumba. Nyuumba jaaje jili hehi no sinagogi. ⁸ Krispo, kalombo ghwa sinagogi kumwi no bhaantu bha halugho kwaaje bhaka mwaminingi Bhwana. Bhantu bheengi bha Korintho bho bhakamuhulikanga Paulo bho ekusahula bhaka aminingi no kupatilisibhwa. ⁹ Bhwana ghakamubhalilanga Paulo bhufuku kunsila ja maono, "Usighubhahi, lakini tenda no usijikali nakele. ¹⁰ Kwaani uune ndi hamwi nooghwe, no kutuhu gho alokujalibhu kukufulasya, maana ndili no bhaantu bheengi kulugho loolu". ¹¹ Paulo ghakekalanga uuko ku muda ghwa mwaaka ghumwi no miengi mukagha koku ekufundisya ighambo lya Kabhumba kati ja kumwaabho. ¹² Lakini Galio ho ghakajilwanga mtwala ghwa Akaya, Bhayahudi bhaka hagha lalanga hamwi kinyume ne Paulo ne kumfela mbeleja sitebhe sya hukumu, ¹³ bhakutenda muntu ghoghu habhashabhishi bhantu bhamuabudu Kabhumba kinyume sya sheria." ¹⁴ Bhwakati Paulo hoghakahesanga kutenda, Galio ghaka mubhalilanga Bhayahudi "Umwe Bhayahudi, kobhe jinakabhe ni ikosa au bhubhihile jina kabhe halali kubha shughulikia. ¹⁵ Lakini kwa sabhabhu ni maswali ghoghana husu maghambo ne masina, ne sheria syenyu bhasi hukumu umwe bhene une sitamani kubha hakimu kubhabhali ja maghambo ghagho." ¹⁶ Galio gaka bhaamurungu bhabhuka mbele ja sitebhe sya hukumu, ¹⁷ Tetyo bhako munighanga Sosthene, kiongozi ghwa sinagogi bhaka muhulanga mbele ja sitebhe sya hukumu . Lakini Galio tegha ka jalingi syo bhakajilanga. ¹⁸ Paulo, baada ja kwikala halya kumuda mleho, ghaka bhale kanga ndughu ne kuja kwa meli Siria hamwi ne Prisila ne Akwila. Kabla ja kubhuka kubandari, ghaka putanga nyele syaje kwani akabhele ghalapa kubha mnadhiri. ¹⁹ Ho bhakafikanga Efeso, Paulo ghakabhalekanga Prisila na Akwila halya, lakini nyene ghaka jingilanga kuli sinagogi ne kujadiliana ne Bhayahudi. ²⁰ Hobhakamu bhalilanga Paulo ajikale nabho kumuda murehe nyene ghakatunanga. ²¹ Lakini ghaka bhukanga kumwabho, ghakabhabhalilanga, "Ndo helela kabhili kumwenyu, ikwa ni mapenzi gha Kabhumba". Baada ja haho bhukanga kwa meli kufuma Efeso. ²² Paulo heghakotuanga Kaisaria, ghaka tandanga kuja kuposya ikanisa lya Yerusalemu, kisha ghaka sokanga hansi ku kanisa lya Antiokia. ²³ Baada ja kwikala kumuda halya, Paulo ghakabhukanga kuhitila maeneo gha Galatia ne Frigia ne kubha jita mwegho bhanafunzi bhonse. ²⁴ Muyahudi ghumwi ajitwe Apolo, ghoghakafukanga koko Alexandria, ghakajisanga Efeso. Akabhele ne bhufasaha katika kusahula ne hodari katika maandiko. ²⁵ Apollo akabhele ghaelekezwa katika mafundisho gha Bhwana. Kujinsi ho akabhele ne bidii katika roho, ghakasahura ne kufundisya kwa bhusahihi mambo ghakanya kumuhusu Yesu, ila ghaka manyanga tu bhubatizo bhwa Yohana. ²⁶ Apolo ghaka sapanga kuzungumuza ku bhujasiri katika hekalu. Lakini Prisila ne Akwila hobha kamu hulikanga, bhakajilanga bhunywanyi naje ne bhakamuelezeanga kulughulu jansila syeke Kabhumba kubhu sahihi. ²⁷ Hoghaka tamaningi kubhuka kuja Akaya, ndughu bhaka mutianga mwegho ne kumuandikia barua bhanafunzi bhobhakali Akaya ili bhapate kumupokela. Hoghaka wasilingi, kuneema ghaka bhafunanila nkana bhalya bhobha kaaminingi. ²⁸ Kumanagha ghaje ne maarifa, Apolo ghakabhasumbanga Bhayahudi hadharani akulangi sya kuhitila maandiko gha kubha Yesu ndiye Kristo.

¹ Jakabha kwamba Apolo ko akabhele Korintho, Paulo ghahita nyanda sya kulughulu ne kufika kuli lugho lwa Efeso, na ghasanga bhanafunzi kadhaa koko. ² Paulo ghabhabhalila, "Je, mwakapokelanga mwegho musogha bho mwakaaminingi bhamubhalila, "Hatuhu, tetwakakobhola ninga kuhulika kuhusu mwegho mutakatifu." ³ Paulo hgatendanga, "Nonwe umwe mwakabatilwanga bhuti?" Bhatenda katika bhubatizo bhweke Yohana. ⁴ Haho Paulo ghajibhu, "Yohana ghakabatizanga kwa bhubhatizo ghwa toba ghabhabhalila bhalya bhantu kubha bhakupaswa kumuami ghulya ambaje kobhe ghasisa baada jaje yaani, Yesu." ⁵ Bhantu bhobha kahulikanga habhari jeji bhaka bhatizwanga kwi sina lya Bwana Yesu. ⁶ Na ja kabhanga Paulo bho ghakabhika mabhoko ghaje kulughulu kwa bho mwegho mutakatifu ghajisa kulughulu jabho ne bhakasaa kunena kwake lugha ne kutabiri. ⁷ Jumla jabho bhakabhele bhaghosi bhapatabho makumi ne abhili. ⁸ Paulo ghakajanga katika isinagogi ghakanenanga kwa bhujasiri kwa muda ghwa miensi itatu akabhele akuongoza majadiliano kubha bhuta bhantu kuhusu maghambo ghoghanausu bhufalme bhweke Kabhumba. ⁹ Lakini Bhayahudi bhandi bhakabhele bhakaidi ne bhasibho ne kutii bhakasapa kutenda mabhi kuhusu nsila ja Kristo mbele ja bhumati. Basi Paulo ghakalekana nabho ne ghabha tenteka bhaaminio kumbali nabho naje ghaka sapa kusahura kila ifuku katika bhukumbi ghwa Tirano. ¹⁰ Jeji jakaendelea kwa miaka abhili kwa jejobhonse bhobhakabhele bhakuishi katika Asia bhakahulika ighambo lya Bhwana, bhonse bhayahudi ne bhayunani. ¹¹ Kabhumba akabhele akujila matendo makulu kumabhoko gha Paulo, ¹² Kubha ninga bhalwele bhaka bhasisya ne mwegho mubhi bhakabhafuma bhwakati bhakatwalanga leso no mwenda syosyakafumanga kumutumba mweke Paulo. ¹³ Lakini pakabheleho Bhayahudi bhapunga musagha bhaku safiri kuhitila eneo lelyo bhakulitumila isina lya Yesu kwa ajili ja matumizi ghabho bhene. Kobhe bhabhabhalila bhalya bhakabhele ne misagha mibhi bhakutenda nikubhaamuru mufume kwe isina lya Yesu ambaje Paulo akumuhubiri." ¹⁴ Bhakanya kujila bhakabhele bhali ne mupungati bha kuhani mukulu ghwa Kiyahudi, Sikewa. ¹⁵ Mwegho mubhi bhakabhajibhu, "Yesu mujinsi ne Paulo mujinsi lakini umwe ni bhaghanyi?" ¹⁶ Ghulya mwegho mubhi mukati mwa muntu ghabha rutukila bhapunga musagha ne akabhasumba managha ne kubhahula ndiho bhakilima kufuma jilya nyumba bhakabha bhtuhu ne kufulalika. ¹⁷ Ighambo lyeli lyamaka kubhonse bhayahudi ne Bhayunani ambabho bhakaishi koko Efeso. Bhakabha ne hofu nkana ne isina lya Bwana lya sumba kuheshimiwa. ¹⁸ Pia bhengi bha bhaumini bhakajisa ne bhakaungama ne kudhidhirisha matendo mabhi ghobha kajila. ¹⁹ Bhengi bhobhaka bhele bhakujila bhughanga bhakunganya fitabhu fya kumwabho bhafifumba mbele ja kila muntu. Bhwakati bhwabho bhobhakahesabhungu thamani ja fintu fyefyo jakabha fipande hamusini elfu fya mahela. ²⁰ Tetyo ighambo lya Bhwana lyaka enea kwa bhupana ngana kuli managha. ²¹ ja Paulo kukamilisha huduma jaje kulya Efeso, Mwegho ghwamulombosya kuja Yerusalemu kuhitila Makedonia ne Akaya; ghatenda, "Baada ja kubhako koko jikunibidi kuji lola Rumi pija." ²² Paulo ghabhafumanga Makedonia bhanafunzi bhaje bhabhili, Timotheo ne Erasto, ambabho bhakabhele bhamufunanila. Lakini nyene ghasibha Asia kwa muda. ²³ Bhwakati bhobho kwakafumila ghasia nkulu koko Efeso kuhusu jilya nsila. ²⁴ Sonara ghumwi isina lyaje Demetrio, ambaje ghaka jojanga fisanamu fya mahela fya Kabhumba Diana, ghakaletanga biashara nkulu kweke mafundi. ²⁵ Tetyo ghabhakunganya mafundi bha mulimo ghogho ne kutenda bhaheshimibhwa mukumanya kubha katika biashara jeji ufwe tukujingisya mahela mengi. ²⁶ Mkulola ne kuhulika kubha situ haha Efeso, bhali kungila Asia jonse ghoghu Paulo ghabha shawishi ne kubha hindula bhantu bhengi. Akutenda kubha kutuhu kabhumba ambajo ghajilwa kumabhoko. ²⁷ Nasi tu jiliko hatari kubha biashara jetu hilobha tejihensilwe kabhili, lakini pia ne hekalu lya kabhumba mukasi ukali mukulu Diana akukobhola kutwatibhwa kubha teali na maana. Kabhili kubhe ghakobhola ninga kutagha bhukulu bhwafenyene ambaye Asia ne bhwelelo humuabudu." ²⁸ Ho bhaka hulikanga ghagha alifawa ne sisira na bhaka hulanga kelele bhakutenda, "Diana ghwa Efeso ni mukulu." ²⁹ Muji ghonse ghwakabhumbika ghasia ne bhantu bhakakilima hamwi mukati ja ukumbi ghwa michezo bhabhanigha bhasafiri bhenaje ne Paulo, Gayo ne Aristariko, bhobho kafumanga Makedonia. ³⁰ Paulo ghahensa kujingira katika bhumati bhwa bhantu, lakini bhanafunzi bhamutembusya. ³¹ Pia baadhi ja maafisa wa mkoa ghwa Asia ambagho bhakabhele bhanywanyi bhaje bhamufelela bhujumbe kwa managha kumulomba asijingile katika bhukumbibhwa michezo. ³² Baadhi ja bhantu bhakabhele bhakutenda sintu sesi ne bhandi ighambo lilya kwa sabhabhu bhumati bhwa bhantu ukabhele bhwa changanyikiwa. Bhengi bhabho tebhakakobhola ninga kumanya kwasi bhakajisa hamwi. ³³ Bhayahudi bhamuleta Iskanda kunse ja bhumati ghwa bhantu ne kumubhika kulughulu mbele ja bhantu. Iskanda ghafumya inshara kweke bhoko lyaje kufumya maelezo kweke bhantu. ³⁴ Lakini bhabha katambuanga kubha nyene ni Myahudi, bhonse bhahula bhulana ka sauti jimwi kwa muda wa nsaa abhili, "Diana ni mukulu ghwa Efeso." ³⁵ Baada ja karani ghwa lugha ku humbusya bhumati ghakatendanga, 'Enyi bhaghosi bha Efeso, ni ghanyi asili kumanya kwamba lugho ghoghu ghwa Efeso ni mutunsyaji ghwa hekalu leke Diana mukulu ne jejeli picha bhojakaghwanga kufuma mbinguni? ³⁶ Kulola bhasi kubha maghambo ghagha teghalowezekanehi tukuhenselwa kubha ne bhuhumbufu ne musijili syosyonse kubhwangu. ³⁷ Kumaaana mwabhatangila bhantu bhabha haha mahakamani ambagho si bhefi waheklu wala si bhali kumkufulu kabhumba ghwetu mukasi. ³⁸ Kwa jejo kobhe Demetrio ne mafundi bhali hamwi naje bhali ne mashtaka dhidi ja muntu ghoghonse mahakama siliho wazi ne malibhwali bhaliho ne bhaletwe mbele ja shauri. ³⁹ Lakini kobhe ughwe ghwahensa syosyonse kuhusu maghambo ghandi ghalojojwa katika kikao halali. ⁴⁰ Kubhwene tuliku katika hatari ja kutuhumiwa kuhusu ghasia lufuku lola kutuhu sabhabhu ja mabhi ghagha ne tetabha ne bhuwezo bhwa kughatenda. ⁴¹ Baada ja kutenda ghagha, ghakabhasambasya makutano.

¹ Baada ja ghasia kuhwa, Paulo ghaka bhetanga bhanafunzi ne kubhaha mwegho. Kisha kubha tahya ne ghaka bhukanga kufa Makedonia. ² Naje ghaka hitanga mikoa jejo ne akabhele akubhaha mwegho waamuni ghaka jingilanga Uyunani. ³ Baada ya nyene kubha halya kumuda ghwa miensi itatu njama syaka undwanga dhidi jaje ne Bhayahudi ho akabhele akukalibhia kusafiri kunsilaja bhaharini kuelekea Shamu, tetyo ghaka azimungu kuhelela kuhitila Makedonia. ⁴ Bhobhaka andamanga naje hadi Asia bhakabhele Sopatro, mwana ghweke Pirho kufuma Berea; Aristariko no Sekundo, bhonse kufuma bhaamini bha Wathesalonike; Gayo wa Derbe; Timotheo; Tikiko na Trofimo kufuma Asia. ⁵ Lakini bhantu bhabha bhakwisyanga kulombola ne bhaka bhele bhakutu he mbela kulya Troa. ⁶ Kunsila ja bhahari kufuma Filipi baada ja mfuku sya mikate jisijo tibhwa chachu ne katika mfuku itano twana bhafikilanga koko Troa. Twaka jikalanga koko ku mfuku mupungati. ⁷ Ninga mfuku ja kwanza ja juma, ho twaakabhele twa kusanyika hamwi ili kubhumega mukate, Paulo ghaka sahulanga ne bhaamini akabhele mupanga kubhuka isoneka jaje tetyo ghaka endeleanga ku sahula mpaka bhufuku bhwa manane. ⁸ Kukabhele ne taa nyingi katika syumba sya kulughulu ambapo tukabhele twali kunganya hamwi. ⁹ Katika idirisha akabhele ghaji kala kijana ghumwi isina lyaje Utiko, ambagho ghaka elemebhwanga ne usingizi munywamu.

¹ Baada ja nfuku itano, Anania kuhani mukulu, baadhi ja bhakekulu no musemaji ghumwi ajitwile Tertulo, bhakajanga halya.

¹ Ho Festo mukuhwa kwingila kujimbo iilyo no baada ja nfuku itatu ghakajanga kufuma Kaisaria mpaka Yerusalemu. ² Kuhani mukulu no Bhayahudi bhasyauli bhakaletanga tuhuma dhidi ja Paulo ku Festo, no bhakasungumusyanga kumanagha kwa Festo. ³ No bhakamulombanga Festo fasili halughulu ja habhali sya Paulo apate kumwita Yerusalemu ili bhapate kumwi haghamunsila. ⁴ Lakini Festo ghakajibhu kubha Paulo akabhele musyaku Kaisaria, no kubha nyenye ghwa ghonghwa alokuhelela kokoe bhwangu. ⁵ Ghakabhalanga "Kutetyo, bhalya bho bhakobhwele, bhana kobhola kuja uuko nofwee.

No ifuku lyolilondile akajikele ku kiti sya hukumu no kuamulu Paulo afelwe kumwaje. ⁷ Mukufika, Bhayahudi kufuma Jerusalemu bhakajughalele hehi, Bhafumya masitaka mengi manywamugho tebhaka kobholanga kughasibhitisya. ⁸ Paulo ghake tetea no kubhala, 'Je suumba ja isina lya Bhayahudi, te halughulu ja hekalu, no te halughulu ja Kaisari, nanjila mabhii.' ⁹ Lakini Festo ghakahensanga kuli pendekesya kubhayahudi, no tetyo ghakamujibhu Paulo mukubhala, 'Je, uhensile kuja ku Yerusalemu no kukalilwa nanee kuhusu maghambo aaghe kulya?' ¹⁰ Paulo ghakabhalanga, 'Ndikujughalala kukiti sya hukumu sya Kaisari ho ndili kuhensibhwa kukalilwa.

"Festo, ghakabhala, "Isoneka ula kumuhulikisya." ²³ Tetyo isoneka jaje, Agripa no Bernike bhakafikile no fulaha nyiingi; bhakafikile ku bhukumbi no maafisa ghwa jeshi, no bhantu mashuhuli ghwa jeshi, no bhantu mashuhuri ghwa muji. No Festo mukufumya amuli, Paulo ghakaletwanga kumwabho. ²⁴ Festo ghabhala, "Mfalme Agripa, no bhantu bhonse bho bhali hanu hamwi nofwe, mumubhwene muntu uujwe; jumuiya jabhayahudi kulya ku Jerusalemu no ahe kumwi hahensa imbasauli, no bheene bhahula bhulanga kumwane ne kubhaa asiishi. ²⁵ Ndili bhweene kubhateghakajilanga lyolyonse lyo limu hensibhwe kufwa; lakini kusabhabhu gha mwita Mfalme, nanka panganga kumufela kumwaje. ²⁶ Lakini ndili bhusila sintu sya kughandika dhaili ku Mfalme.

Ghabhala, "Iije ni nfuku kumi na inee mulikuhembelela bhusila kulya, musyali kulya sintu. ³⁴ Tetyo ndili kubha hana mutwale sya kulasise, kusabhabhu iije ni kujili ja bhupanga ghweenyu; no kutuhu ni bhunyele ghwa mitwe syenyugho ghula kufaghika. ³⁵ Mukuhwa kughabhala aagho, ghakabhutwala mukate ghakamshukulu Kabhuumba mbele ja menso gha kila muntu.

Bhakalibhalila kubha bhana kobhola kuendesya meli kuja haho. ⁴⁰ Tetyo bhakasileghesya nanga bhaka sileka kwi bahali. Ku muda ghoghoe bhakasileghesya nkusa sya itanga no bhakajibhusya sehemu ja hambele kuja kumusagha, tetyo bhakajanga ku sehemu ja musenga bhwiingi. ⁴¹ Lakini bhakesanga mahali ho mikondo mibhili sili kukutana, no meli jikajile ku musenga. No jilya sehemu ja hambele ja meli jika kwamile halya no tejaka kobholanga kufuma, lakini sehemu jaha mbele ja meli jikasapile kufuna ghika kusabhabhu ja bhukali ghwa mawimbi. ⁴² Mupanga ghwa bhalya asikali ghukabhele ni kubhehagha bhalyabhasya, ili kubha kutuhu ghwa kwipuma no kutoloka. ⁴³ Lakini ghulya asikali ghwa jeshi lya Kiroma ghakahensanga kumusabhula Paulo, tetyo ghakabhu jughalalisya mupango ghwabho; no ghakabhaamulu bhalya bho bhakobhwele kulipuma, bhaghuluke kufuma ku meli kwansa nobha kajile ku ilongo lya bhukange. ⁴⁴ Kisha bhaghosi bhandi bhale kulonda, bhandi halughulu jafipande sya mbao no bhandi halughulu ja fintu findi kufuma ku meeli.

Kunsila iije twakesa Rumi. ¹⁵ Kufuma koko bhalya bha mughana, bhaada ja kubha bhalulika bhabhali syetu, bhakesanga kutupokela kwisoko lya Apias no Hotel itatu. Paulo mukubhalola bhalya bha mughana ghaka musyukulu Kabhumba ghaliha bhu simu. ¹⁶ Mukubha twajingila Roma, Paulo ghaka bhali sibhwanga kwikala ghongwa hamwi no ghulya asikali gho akabhele ali kumulinda. ¹⁷ Bhaasi jikabhele baada ja nfuku itatu Paulo ghakabhetanga bhalya bhaghosi bho bhakabhele fiongosi kati ja Bhayahudi. Ho bhakesanga hmwi, ghakabhalanga kwabho, "Bhamughana kumwi no kubha fyakelanga ikosa lyolyonse kubhantu aabhe ama kwila sinyume no taratibu sya bhatata ghweetu bho bhakatulombosyanga, nanka fumisibhwa kobhe mufungwa kufuma Jerusalemu mpaka kumabhoko gha Bharumi. ¹⁸ Baada ja kunhoji, bhakatamaningi kundeka hulu, kusabhabhu kukabhele kutuhu sabhabhu kukabhele kutuhu sabhabhu kumwane uune ja kuhensibhwa asabu ja lufu. ¹⁹ Lakini bhalya Bhayahudi bhobhaka sahula sinyume sya shauko jaabho, nanka lasimika kuputa lufaaku Kaisaria, kukubha tejakabhanga kubha ndili kuleta masitaka kuhusu litaifa lyane. ²⁰ Ku sabhabhu ja kuputa kwane lufaa, tetyo, tetyo nanka bhalombanga kubhalola no kusahula namwee. Nikusabhabhu ja silya syo Israeli jili no bhusimu kuiisyo, na hambwa no sifungo iisye. ²¹ Kiisha bhakamubhalile, "Te twakabhwahingi kupokela lipapa kufuma Yudea kuhusu uughwe, bhwaala kutuhu mughana gho ghakesanga kufumya taarifa ama kutenda ighambo lyolyonse libhii kulenga uughwe. ²² Lakini tulikuhensa kuhulika kufuma kumwobhe uli kulanganya sii kuhusu iilye ikundi lya bhantu aabhe, kusabhabhu jimanyike kumwetu kubha lili kutenda sinyume kila mahali." ²³ Ho bhakabhele bhatengile nfukukujili jaaje, bhantu bheengi nkana bhakamwisile mahali hoaka ekele.
