1 Bhela Mpenganyambiku Nkolongwa akundaluki Stefano, “Bho, mambu ghangani le gha chakaka?”
2 Stefano akayangike, “Mwabhalongu bhangu na akatati bhangu, nyowanyaje! Chapanga akumpitali ahoko witu Ibulahimu paakabhi ku Mesopotamia paakabhi akali nga kujenda kutama ku Halani. 3 Chapanga akumpwaghile, ‘Ubhoka pa inchi jaku na waleka bhandu bha lukolu lwaku ujendaje ku inchi jenakulangiaje.’ 4 Bhela, Ibulahimu akahamiki ku inchi ja ku Kalidayo, akapiti kutama ku Halani. Paakajomwi kupotela atati waki, Chapanga akumbohiki kabheti Ibulahimu kuhuma ku Halani na kundeta kutama ku inchi jenjenu jentama sajeno. 5 Chapanga ngacheampeki Ibulahimu inchi nahuli jibya jaki, ngacheakumpeki hata chipandi kichokopi cha kubheka chigholu chaki, hata bhela Chapanga akumpeki chilanga kubha jombi na lubheleku lwaki anabhatola upwelelu wa inchi jenjenu, hata koni chikahi hechi Ibulahimu ngacheakabhi na mwana. 6 Chapanga akumpwaghi ana, ‘Bhana bhaku bhibya bhaghene ku inchi ja bhandu bhangi, na konihoko bhibya bhatumwa bhabho, na kubhahenge mambu mahakau kwa chikahi cha hyaka mia ncheche.’ 7 Chapanga akapwaghike, ‘Nambu nepani ananabhatemula bhandu bha inchi jeniheji jejabhabheka bhabya bhatumwa, na baada ja ghanihagha, ananabhabhoha bhabhelakeka bhinu pa inchi jeniheje nahuli bhahika kunyojabhela pandu pani.’ 8 Panihapa Chapanga akumpeki Ibulahimu lulaghilu lwa jando ngati nginyulila jaki. Ibulahimu akumbeliki Isaka na akunhekiti jando lichobha la nane kutumbu paakabhelakike. Palongi Isaka akumbeliki Yakobo najombi akunhengi bhelabhela, na Yakobo akabhabheliki akahoko bhitu komi na bhabheli bhala na kubhahenge bhelabhela.
9 “Maghambu akahoko bhitu bhala bhakumboni wihu Yusufu,” bhakundombisi kutumwa ku Misili. Nambu Chapanga akabhi papamu naku. 10 Akunkengali kubhokana na mang'ahiku ghaki ghokapi ghaghumpatike, kabheti Chapanga akumpeki chihomu, apata kupalakika na Falao, nkolongwa wa ku Misili na kubhonikana abhi na mbulau yamaheli palongi jaki. Nkolongwa jola akumbehi abya njemalela wa inchi jaki na wa nyumba jaki jokapi. 11 Bhela kukabhi na injala ku inchi jokapi ja ku Misili na ku Kanaani, jakapelaki ulali ukolongwa. Akahoko bhitu ngachebhaweziki kupata chilebhi cha kubhajaghanila. 12 Nambu Yakobo paakajowini kubha ku Misili kukabhi na ingano, akabhatumiki bhana bhaki, yani akahoko bhitu, bhajendaje ku Misili kwa mala ja kutumbula. 13 Pamwanja wabhu wa kabhele, Yusufu akalilowili kwa bhalongu bhaki, na Falao akabhamanyiki bhalongu bhaka Yusufu. 14 Yusufu akatumiki ubholu wa kundoha Yakobo atati waki na bhalongu bhaki bhokapi bhahikaje ku Misili, jumula jabhu bhakabhi bhandu sabini na nhwanu. 15 Bhela Yakobo akapiti ku Misili hoku jombi na akahoko bhitu kobhakapotalile. 16 Hyegha yabhu ikaletakiki mbaka ku Shekemu, ikataghakiki mu litengeli leakahemi Ibulahimu kuhuma kwa bhana bhaka Hamoli kwa pandu fulani pa mbija.
17 “Chikahi pachakahikiki Chapanga kumpeke chilanga cheakumbeki Ibulahimu, ubhalangiku wa bhandu bhitu ku Misili ukajonjukiki namaa. 18 Pa kujomukela nkolongwa jumu jwangakummanya Yusufu akatumbwi kutawala ku Misili. 19 Jonihoju akabhahakali namaa bhandu bhitu Bhaizilaeli, na kubhahenge mahakau akahoko bhitu, kwa kubhapeke amuli bhabhalekala kunja bhana bhabhu bhang'eng'a, nahuli bhapotilaje. 20 Chikahi hechi akabhelakiki Musa, najombi akabhi mwana nyahi namaa. Akaleliwi mu nyumba ja atati waki kwa chikahi cha myehi jitatu. 21 Pabhalepali kunhiya nakanope, bhakumpihiki kunja na kamwali waka nkolongwa Falao akumtoliki, na kundela ngati mwana waki mwene. 22 Musa akabholakiki mambu ghokapi gha mbulau ya Bhamisili, na akabhi mundu joamanyakine kwa malobhi na matendu ghaki.”
23 “Chikahi Musa paakabhi na hyaka alobaini, akaamwi kujenda kubhalola bhalongu bhaki Bhaizilaeli. 24 Konihoku akumbweni mundu jumu wa ku Misili akunhengila uhakau mundu jumu wa ku Izilaeli, akapiti kunkengalela joabhoniwa jola, na kwa kulepa kisasi akunkomiki Mmisili jola. 25 Musa aholalya kubha bhalongu bhaki bhimanya kubha Chapanga anaabhakengalyaje kwa kuntumi jombe, nambu bhombi ngachebhamanyi bhenibhela. 26 Chilabhu jaki, Musa akabhaweni Bhaizilaeli bhabheli bhakakomanaje, akalengiki kubhakenga kwa kubhapwaghila, ‘Mwe mabhandu, mabhanganya mabhalongo, bho, maghambu kiki mpotikana mabhete kwa mabhete?’ 27 Nambu mundu joakabhi andapula njaki jola akunkangiki Musa kunkeghe na kundalukila, ‘Bho, nane joakubhei wehapa ubya chiongozi na mtemula witu tepani?’ 28 ‘Bho, upala kungoma ngati moukunkomi Mmisili jola licho?’ 29 Musa paakajowini malobhi ghanihagha, akatiliki na kujenda kutama ngati ngeni ku inchi ja ku Midiani. Na konihoku akapatiki bhana bhabheli bha chikambaku.
30 “Payapetiki hyaka alobaini, mtumika wa kunani kwaka Chapanga akumpitali Musa pa chitutu chechibhelala moto kulipololu hoku pambipi na Chitombi Sinai. 31 Musa paakaweni mambu ghanihagha, akakangichi namaa kubhona mabhonu ghala. Akaheghali pambipi nahuli kulingalila, akajowini sauti jaka Bambo. 32 Jakapwaghaje, ‘Nepani nde Chapanga wa akahokolu bhaku, Chapanga waka Ibulahimu, Isaka na Yakobo.’ Musa akabhaghiji kwa choghoi na wala ngacheaweziki kujendale kulingalila. 33 Bambo akumpwaghile, ‘Uhulaje magubasi ghaku maghambu pandu paujemi pani nde pandu pahuhu. 34 Chakaka naghaweni mang'ahiku gha bhandu bhangu ku Misili hoku. Nikijowini chilelu chabhu cha mabhinilu, na nepani nhelili nahuli nabhakengalyaje. Henu uhikaje, nanatu ananukutumaje ku Misili.’
35 “Jonihoju akabhi Musa jobhunkanika bhandu, bhakapwaghaje, ‘Bho, joakubhehi wehapa ubya chiongozi na mtemula witu tepani nane?’ Chapanga nde joakuntumiki abya chiongozi na mkombola, kwa indela jaka mtumika wa kunani kwaka Chapanga joakumpitali ku chitutu chechibhelala moto. 36 Musa nde jobhalonguwa bhandu bhabhoka ku Misili kwa kuhenga nginyulila na ngangachu ku inchi ja ku Misili, ku Bahali ja Shamu, na kulipololu kwa chikahi cha hyaka alobaini. 37 Jonihoju nde Musa jobhapwaghila bhandu bha ku Izilaeli, ‘Chapanga anaanhaghulya mlota ngati nepani kuhuma kwa bhalongu bhinu mabhete, munjowanyaje jombi.’ 38 Chikahi hechi pakukabhi uhimanganu wa Bhaizilaeli kulipololu hoku, jombi akabhi panipala na akahoko bhitu papamu na mtumika wa kunani kwaka Chapanga joalongila naku ku Chitombi Sinai jola. Jombi nde joakajopalili malobhi gha womi nahuli atupekyaje tepani.
39 “Nambu akahoko bhitu ngachebhapaliki kumtii Musa, bhakunkaniki na bhakatokuli kukelebhuka kabheti ku Misili. 40 Bhakumpwaghi Haluni, ‘Utulenganakyaje imong'umong'u yeyatulonguwa mwindela, maghambu ngachetumanyi ghaghumpatiki Musa joatulonguhaje tubhokaje ku inchi ja Misili.’ 41 Panihapa bhakalenganaki chimong'umong'u cha ubhonikanu wa litoli la ng'ombi, bhakaletiki nyambiku kwa chimong'umong'u chela na kuhekalela lihengu lebhahengiki kwa mabhoku ghabhu bhene. 42 Bhela Chapanga akabhokiki pachilanda jabhu, akabhalehi bhajojabya ndondwa, lyobha na mwehi ngati moilembakike mu chitabu cha bhalota bhaka Chapanga.
‘Mabhandu bha Izilaeli!
Bho, nga nepani le mwemokila nyambiku na nhupu,
kwa chikahi cha hyaka alobaini kulipololu kola?
43 Mabhanganya mwakalitotwili lihema laka kichapanga winu Moleki,
na ichapanga ya ndondwa yaka kichapanga winu Refani.
Mkalenganakili imong'umong'u nahuli muijojabyaje.
Kwa kuhenga bhenibhela ananumpelakaje kutali kupeta ku Babeli.’
44 “Ku lipololu kola akahoko bhitu bhakabhi na Lihema la Ulandilu. Lakalenganakiki ngati Chapanga moakumpwaghi Musa alenganakyaje, kulengana na ulenganesu ghola ghoauwene. 45 Akahoko bhitu bhakajopalani bheni kwa bheni mbaka chikahi chaka Yoshua, pabhakajitohi inchi jela kuhuma kwa bhandu bha inchi nayenge ambayu Chapanga akaitopwile palongi jabho. Panihapa likatami mbaka chikahi chaka Daude. 46 Daude akapatiki chihomu palongi jaka Chapanga, akundobhiki Chapanga kunchenge matamu gha kutama jombi joakabhi Chapanga waka Yakobo. 47 Nambu Solomoni nde joakunchengi Chapanga nyumba.
48 “Papamu na bhela, Chapanga Joabhi Kunani Nakanope ngacheatama mu nyumba yeichengakiki na mabhoku gha bhandu, ngati mlota waka Chapanga moapwaghila:
49 ‘Bambo apwagha, kunani nde chitehu changu cha ukolongwa,
na pundema nde chitehu changu cha kubheke magholu ghango.
Bho, ananjengila nyumba ja ntundu bhole?
Bho, pandu pangu pa kupomulela anapabya kwako?
50 Bho, mabhoku ghangu le ngacheghabhombiki hindu ayeyi yokape?’
51 “Mwenga mwemnonwipi hingo! Mitima na makutu ghinu ghabhi ngati gha bhandu bhangakummanya Chapanga. Mabhanganya ngati akahoko bhinu. Machobha ghokapi mumpenga Roho Mhuhu. 52 Bho, abhi mlota jwangakung'ahakika na akahoko bhinu? Akahoko bhinu bhakabhakomiki bhalota bhaka Chapanga bhaakabhatumiki bhatangazaje kuhika kwaka Mweni Haki. Na sajenu, mabhanganya ntehi kung'anambuka, na kunkoma. 53 Mwanganya mkajopali Shelia yeyaletakiki kwinu na bhatumika bha kunani kwaka Chapanga, nambu ngachemwikamwile!”
Stefano alapulika maganga
54 Bhazee bha pachengo pabhajowini malobhi ghanihagha, bhakahakali namaa, bhakamuyaghi Stefano minu kwa inyela. 55 Nambu Stefano koni akabya atweli Roho Mhuhu, akalingalaki kunani kumahunde, akauweni ulumbalilu waka Chapanga na Yesu akabya ajemiki upambala wa kumalelelu waka Chapanga. 56 Akapwaghike, “Ndingalyaje! Mona kunani kumahunde kuhowike na Mwana waka Mundu ajemiki upambala wa kumalelelu waka Chapanga!”
57 Panihapa, bhandu bhokapi bhabhabhi pa uhimanganu wa pachengo pala, bhakajamalili na kuhibha makutu kwa mabhoku ghabho. Na bhela bhakamuhombili bhokapi kwa papamu, 58 bhakumpihiki kunja ja muchi, na kundapula maganga. Na bhalandilu bhakabhei makoti ghabhu pahi ja ulingalilu waka nkombu jumu lihina laki Sauli. 59 Bhakajendali kundapu kwa maganga koni Stefano akundobha Chapanga, “Bambo Yesu, ujopalya roho jango!” 60 Akachikimi pahi, akaleliki kwa sauti ngolongwa, “Bambo! Ngawabhalangila lihoku lendenu.” Paakajomwi kulonge bhenibhela, akapotile. Sauli najombi akachiweni chihengu chenihechi cha kukomakeka kwaka Stefano kubha wichu.
