1 Sauli aari vavawo ni uyo ahorumelhelha wiiviya wa Nastefano.
Nlhoko wa attu anrumelhenlhe Yesu unootwarushiya
Nenno nihuku attu anrumelhenlhe Kuristo Uyerusalemu yahochokholha utwarushiya chinene. Attu onkhaye, ahikhalhe akarumiya, ahomwariacha nkayaattawelha mmamatani ilhapo cho Uyudea ni Usamariya. 2 Attu anthimicha Nlhuku yahakusha ni waavitha Nastefano ni wonlhelha chinene.
3 Nansho Sauli aholhikacha waatwarusha attu anrumelhenlhe Kuristo, wo urwaa kila inupa. Nkaapurulhacha attu vathe, manyaalhopwana ni manyopani, nkaatikhelha ujeerani.
Attu a Nlhuku anowiittuchiha Malhove Orera Usamariya.
4 Attu yaamwarianche alhe, kila waattawenlhe aya yahohimiacha Malhove Orera wa attu. 5 Nafilipo aarweelhe iwani yo Usamariya ni waahimiachera attu wiira Yesu phi Kuristo aathanlhiye ni Nlhuku. 6 Attu aheewelhelha rata nttenga u Nafilipo uyo, ni woona cho ushangiha chaapanga aya. 7 Mashoka o unanara yahaakhuma attu enchi akhuwelhachaka, ni attu enchi o uremaracha aholhamihiya. 8 Iwani yonkhaye yahoteelhiya chinene.
9 Paahi etu yeyo iwani iyo ahaawo ntu mmoka nkhwiri eehaniya Simoni. Yoyo aari aashangihaka attu o ilhapo yo Usamariya, nkeechoona ukhalha ntu ochuwania. 10 Attu onkhaye o akani o uhichuwania ni attu o olhupalhe o nhakhu, yahomwiiwelhelha rata yiiraka, “ashinna Simoni phi machiri a Nlhuku aneehaniya ‘Machiri Molhupalhe.’ ” 11 Yaachivelhiya chinene ukhalhawaya ukhwiri waya wahaashangiha attu wo iyaakha chinchi. 12 Nansho vaarumelhenlhe aya nttenga u Nafilipo waahimia Malhove Orera o Imwene ya Nlhuku, manyaalhopwana ni manyaathiyana yahobatiizachiya wo nchina na Yesu Kuristo. 13 Ata Simoni mwanene ahorumelhelha, abatiiziyeke, aari attukanaka ni Nafilipo, ashangaka chinene ithikineha ni cho ushangiha chaapaangiya.
14 Akarumiya yaari Uyerusalemu alhe, veewilhe aya wiira attu o Usamariya ahopochera nlhove na Nlhuku, yahaaruma Napeturo ni Nayohana urwaa wowo. 15 Vaaphilhe aya nkayaalhapelhelha attu wiira ampochere Iphumu ya Nlhuku, 16 Ukhalhawaya yeyo ikatema iyo Iphumu ya Nlhuku khaari anankhuruwelhe ntu riyoothe munlhokoni mwaya, yaari ahowiiraka ubatiiziyaru wo nchina na Athithi Yesu. 17 Paahi etu, Napeturo ni Nayohana nkayeesheracha attu miono, nkayampochera Iphumu ya Nlhuku.
18 Simoni nkaachuwelha wiira wo weesheriya miono ni akarumiya, attu yahovahiya Iphumu ya Nlhuku. Paahi nkaakumiha nchurukhu athananaka waahonga Napeturo ni Nayohana 19 eeraka, “Nkivaheke ni mii ikuru iyo ikhalhe wiira vanohalha aka umweeshera miono ntu riyoothe, ampochere Iphumu ya Nlhuku.”
20 Nansho Napeturo nkayaakhulha, “Mpotereke uwo, ni nchurukhu inyu, ukhalhawaya nnaanyihera wiira nnowooria uthuma ikuru ya Nlhuku wo nchurukhu! 21 Khanrina ittu munthekoni mwihu ukhalhawaya nrima inyu uhowonya mmiithoni mwa Nlhuku 22 paahi etu, nkhoromeke nhiyeke uwonya winyu, mwaalhapelheke Athithi anowooria ulhevelhelhani irusho chinyu thoko yayo. 23 Ukhalhawaya kihoona wiira nhochariya ihache ni uttukiya mu unanarani!”
24 Nasimoni nkayaakhulha Napeturo ni Nayohana, “Nkilhapelheke wa Athithi wiira, nihikipatte no uhilhoka niriyoothe wo yayo malhove muulhumanche inyu ayo.”
25 Napeturo ni Nayohana yamalheke uhimiechesha nttenga wa Athithi, yahohokolhia Uyerusalemu. Vaahokolhia aya, ahovira ahimiachaka Malhove Orera iwani chinchi cho Usamariya.
Nafilipo anombattiza ntu o pilhi yulhupalhe o Uithiopia
26 Nnepa wa Athithi nkawolhumacha weerelha Nafilipo, “Mwiirehelhelheke nrweeke iphiro cho uthakoni, iphiro inokhuma Uyerusalemu ukhelha Ugaza.” 27 Paahi etu, Nafilipo nkayaakhalha rata, nkaachokholha nkwaha. Yeyo ikatema, ahaawo ntu mmoka nholhelhi mulhupalhe o Uithiopia aheechooria mpaani. Yoyo aari akhumaka Uyerusalemu unthimichani Nlhuku ahokolhiaka Uithiopia waavara awe ntheko mulhupalhe wo ushunga nhakhu wa apwiyamwene Nakandake, apwiyamwene o Uithiopiya. 28 Nkukuta waawenlhe awe waari wo upurulhiya ni ashinama. Nkaamwiiwa ashomaka wo nlhove ikitabu ya anamilhohi a Nlhuku ashinna Isaya. 29 Iphumu ya Nlhuku nkeerelha Nafilipo, “Nrweeke unovira aya nkukuta uyo mwaattwareke.” 30 Nafilipo nkayaattimakelha nkukuta uyo, kayaamwiiwa ntu o pilhi uyo ashomaka ikitabu ya anamilhohi a Nlhuku ashinna Isaya. Nafilipo nkayankoha, “Chani nhochuwelha ittu inoshoma inyu iyo?”
31 Ntu o pilhi uyo nkaakhulha, “Kinaachuwelheke chani wo uhiittuchihiya ni ntu?” Paahi nkayeehana Nafilipo wiira awelhe munkukutani mmo amwiittuchihe. 32 Nlhako waashoma awe waari Malhove Matakatifu eera,
“Aari thoko ikhondoro yaarweehiya uuhithiyani,
inamaanlhe thoko mwaakhondoro vanothikilhiya awe mapururu,
khaapatakunlhe malhaku awe.
33 Ahoolhihiya muru ni woonelhiya.
Khaawo nolhoha uhukumulha mwaha wo iyari awe,
ukhalhawaya ukumi awe uhothamihiya velhaponi va.”
34 Ntu o pilhi o Uithiopia uyo nkaalhepelha Nafilipo, “Nkihimerieke, anamilhohi a Nlhuku alha anomwaacha mpani? Aneera echaachaka anene ama anomwaacha ntu nkina?” 35 Paahi etu, Nafilipo nkayaapatakulha malhaku aya wulhumacha, ni uchokholhaka ni yoyo nlhako wo Malhove Matakatifu uyo, yahohimiacha Malhove Orera a Yesu Kuristo. 36 Nkwaha vaathepa aya, yahophiya vakittu vaari ni maashi, ni ntu o pilhi uyo nkeera “Maashi alha vaa, chani, ittu yaani inohalha ukihiiha wiira kihibatiiziye?”*Nafilipo nkayeera, “Yakhalhaka nhorumelhelha wo nrima winyu wonkhaye, nnowooria ubatiiziya.” 37 Ntu o pilhi uyo nkaakhulha, “Eiyo, kihorumelhelha wiira Yesu Kuristo phi Mwaana a Nlhuku.”
38 Paahi etu nkaalhehera nkukuta uyo weemeshiye. Onkhaye, Nafilipo ni ntu o pilhi uyo nkayaakhuruwa mmaashini, ni Nafilipo nkayambatiiza. 39 Vaakhuma aya mmaashini, Iphumu ya Athithi nkawaakusha Nafilipo. Ntu o pilhi ulhe khoonne Nafilipo tho, nansho nkaawelha munkukutani mwawe ateelhiyaka chinene munrimani. 40 Nafilipo nkayeephwanya anari Uazoto, nkayaavira iwani chonkhaye ahimiachaka Malhove Orera mpaka nkayaaphiya Ukaisariya.
