1 Eriibhaga rino Apooro yaari mumugye gwa Koriinto, Pauro akabha murugeendo arahitira mumigye gya mubhiguru, tee hano yahikiri Efeso. Akasikana na abhaanabheega abhaandi, 2 akabhabhuurya, “Hano mwaamwiikiriirye Yeesu, mukasuungʼaana ne Ekoro Muhoreeru?”
Neebho bhakamukyoora, “Zeyi, tukyaari naabhe kwiigwa kubha ariho Ekoro Muhoreeru.”
3 Okumara Pauro akabhabhuurya, “Mukabatiizwa kwo obhubatiizoki?”
Bhakamukyoora, “Tukabatiizwa kwo obhubatiizo bhwa Yohana.”
4 Pauro akabhabhuurira, “Yohana yaari arabatiiza abhaatu bhano bhatigiri ebhibhi bhyaabhu. Akabha areegya abhaatu okubha bhamwiikirirye wuno akuuza inyuma waaye, eheene niwe Yeesu.” 5 Hano bhiigwiiri amangʼana gayo, bhakabatiizwa kwe eriina ryo Omukuru Yeesu. 6 Pauro akabhatuurira amabhoko iguru waabhu, niho Ekoro Muhoreeru akabhiikira, bhakataanga okugaamba kwe ebhigaambo ebhihya no okuruusya obhurooti. 7 Ne ekireengo kyaabhu, kyaari abhasubhe ikumi na bhabhiri.
8 Kwe emyeeri etatu, Pauro yaari arasikira munyuumba ye esaango, arakeerenia kwo obhukaari no okubhakorokoomba abhaatu bhiikirirye amangʼana gano gari iguru yo obhutemi bhwa Taatabhugya. 9 Nawe abhaandi bhakaanga kwiikirirya amangʼana ga Yeesu, bhakabha ne eziikoro kongʼu. Bhakataanga kutuka enzira ya Yeesu embere we esaango ya abhaatu, ekagirya Pauro akatwaanikana nabho. Kweego akagega abhaanabheega, akabha arakeerenia nabho eziisiku zyoosi iguru wa Yeesu munyuumba yo okweegera yo omuutu wuno akubhirikirwa Tirano. 10 Pauro akabha ariikara muyo kwe emyaaka ebhiri areegya abhaatu, tee hano abhiikari bhoosi bhe ekyaaro kya Asia, Abhayahudi hamwe na abhaatu bhano bhatari Abhayahudi, bhiigwiiri Amangʼana iguru wo Omukuru Yeesu.
Abhaana bha Sikewa bharasakya okuheebha amasaambwa
11 Taatabhugya yaari arakora ebhitiika bhyo okuruguurya kwa amabhoko ga Pauro. 12 Na abhaatu bhakabha bharagega ebhitaambaara ne eziingibho zino zaari zitooziriku omubhiri gwa Pauro, bhakazituura iguru wa abharweeri, neebho bhakahora na amasaambwa amabhi gayo gakabharwaku abharweeri bhayo.
13 Hahaabha na Abhayahudi abharebhe bhano bhaari kugeenda eno ne eyo bharasakya kuheebha amasaambwa amabhi mubhaatu kwe eriina ryo Omukuru Yeesu. Bhakabha bharagabhuurira amasaambwa amabhi, “Kwe eriina rya Yeesu wuno Pauro aramurwaazira, ndabhabhuurira kubha murweho kumuutu wuno!” 14 Gati ya abhaatu bhano bhaari bharakora ego, bhaari abhaana muhuungati bha Sikewa, wuno yaari Omuyahudi, no omukuru wa abhaseengeri. 15 Nawe orusiku rumwe eriisaambwa eriibhi rikabhakyoora, “Nimumenyiri Yeesu, nimumenyiri na Pauro, nawe emwe ni bhaweewi?” 16 Rugeendo rumwe omuutu wuno yaari agwaatirwe ne eriisaambwa eriibhi rikabhabhururukira bhayo, rikabhahiza amanaga. Rikabhatematema bhukongʼu, tee bhakaryaarira habhoori, bhari kingʼaabhi na bhana amagaati.
17 Amangʼana gayo gakanyaragana bhukongʼu Efeso hayo, ku Bhayahudi na abhaatu bhano bhatari Abhayahudi. Bhayo bhoosi bhakagwaatwa no obhwoobha, ne eriina ryo Omukuru Yeesu rikabha rirakumibhwa. 18 Abhaatu bhaaru bhano bhaari bhamwiikiriirye Yeesu, bhakiisasaama embere wa abhaatu kumabhi gaabhu gano bhaari bhakoriri. 19 Na bhano bhaari bhakukora amangʼana go obhugabhu, bhakareeta ebhitabhu bhyaabhu bhino bhaari kukorera gayo, bhakabhyookya kwo omuriro embere wa abhaatu bhoosi. Hano bhaabhariri obhuguri bhwe ebhitabhu bhiyo, bhakarora bhyaari bhirahikya ebhikwe miroongo etaano (50,000) bhye eziimbirya.*Ebhikwe miroongo etaano (50,000) bhye eziimbirya zaari no obhweera bhwo okugura eziingʼoombe amagana abhiri na miroongo etaano (250). 20 Kweego niigo engʼana yo Omukuru yaari eranyaragana kubhaatu no okubha na amanaga.
Orwaambi rwaaru mumugye gwa Efeso
21 Hano amangʼana gayo goosi gaahwiiri, Pauro akabha ariiseegera ahite mukyaaro kya Makedonia na Akaaya, agye tee Yerusaremu. Akabhuga, “Hano niraamare Yerusaremu, ereenderwa nihike mumugye gwa Rooma.” 22 Kweego akabhatuma abhaatu bhabhiri gati wa abhasakirya bhaaye, Timoteo ne Erasito, bhagye Makedonia eyo, kwiibhaga riyo, ewe akasaaga mukyaaro kya Asia.
23 Kwiibhaga riyo Efeso hayo, hakatuukira orwaambi rukuru bhukongʼu iguru wa abhaanabheega bhe enzira ya Yeesu. 24 Mumugye guyo, yaari arimu omukori wumwe we eziimbirya, eriina yaaye ni Demetirio. Niwe omukori we ebhinyago bhino bhituubheeni ne enyuumba ye eriisaambwa ryaabhu rye ekikari Aritemi. Ne emirimo giyo gyaari girabhaha abhaturi obhweera bhwaaru.
25 Orusiku rumwe Demetirio akakumania abhaturi abharikyaaye bhayo, hamwe na abhaturi abhaandi bhano bhakukora emirimo giyo. Akabhabhuurira, “Emwe abhasubhe, mumenyiri bhuzomu kubha mumirimo gino, nimwe tukubhona obhuniibhi. 26 Nawe bhoono mwiigwiiri, na muruuzi kyeego Pauro yaari arabharuta abhaatu bhaaru bha Efeso hano, hamwe na mbaara zoosi ze ekyaaro kya Asia. Arabhabhuurira emisaambwa gyo okubhaazwa kwa amabhoko ga abhaatu, ni misaambwa gino gitana nguru. 27 Bhoono, ndoobhoha kubha, emirimo gyeetu gino girazeerwa bhukongʼu. Eriiseengerero ryo omusaambwa gweetu omukuru Aritemi naryo riraaza kuzeerwa. Naabhe no omukuru Aritemi wuno ahaaseengerwa ne esi yoosi ya Asia na mukyaaro kyoosi, ariituumibhwa obhukuru bhwaaye.”
28 Amangʼana gayo ga Demetirio gakabhatiindya bhukongʼu abhaturi abharikyaaye bhayo. Bhakataanga kutema ekituri bharabhuga, “Aritemi wa Abhaefeso niwe omukuru!” 29 Omugye gwoosi gwa Efeso gukiizura orwaambi. Abhaatu bhakabhagwaata Gaayo na Aristariko, abhaatu bha Makedonia, bhano bhaari murugeendo hamwe na Pauro, bhoosi bhakaryaara endyaari bhakasikira murukuungu rwo okubharaanira. 30 Pauro akeenda kubha agye yiimeerere gatigati wa abhaatu bhayo, nawe abhaanabheega abharikyaaye bhakamurekya. 31 Naabhe na abhasaani bhaaye abhakuru bha Asia hayo, nabho bhakamutumira amangʼana go okumwiisasaama kubha atasikira murukuungu rwo okubharaanira kubhaatu bhayo.
32 Kwiibhaga riyo, abhaatu bhakakora orwaambi bhukongʼu, abhaandi bhakamwaaya ego na abhaandi bhurya. Kwo okubha esaango yirya yaari ebhiihiri, obhwaaru bhwaabhu bhataamenyiri naabhe kino kibhakumeenie muyo. 33 Abhayahudi bhakamuhunira Arekizanda embere wa abhaatu bhayo, kweego abhaandi bhakiiseega kubha ekituri kiyo kyaari iguru waaye. Niho Arekizanda akabhayiinzirya abhaatu bhayo amabhoko kubha bhakire, kwo okubha yaari areenda okwiisasaama embere waabhu. 34 Nawe hano bhaamenyiri kubha ni Muyahudi, rugeendo rumwe bhoosi bhakataanga kweeki okutema ekituri kwe eziisa ibhiri bharabhuga, “Aritemi wa Abhaefeso niwe omukuru!”
35 Mubhuteero omukaami wo omugye guyo, akabhakirya abhaatu bhayo. Akabhabhuurira, “Emwe abhaatu bha Efeso, weewi mubhyaaro ebhiindi bhyoosi atamenyiri kubha omugye guno nigwo gurariibha eriiseengerero ryo omusaambwa omukuru Aritemi, hamwe no omusaambwa gwaaye gwo okubhaazwa guno gukiituuma okurwa mwiisaaro? 36 Ambe, kyaabhurya atariho omuutu wuno yaangiri amangʼana gano, kweego mureenderwa mukire, na mutakora engʼana yoyoosi kwa bhwaangu. 37 Yiingabha mubhareetiri abhaatu bhayo hano, nawe kitariho ekigiro kino bhiibhiri mwiiseengerero ryo omusaambwa gweetu. Naabhe no omusaambwa gweetu omukuru Aritemi omweene, bhatamutukiri.
38 “Demetirio na abhaturi abharikyaaye kyamuna bhane engʼana iguru wo omuutu wowoosi, tuna ahagiro ho okutinira emigiro, na abhataania bhe emigiro bhariho. Hayo niho Demetirio na abhaturi abharikyaaye bhareenderwa bhabhazoongere eyo. 39 Na mukubha muna amangʼana agaandi, mugahire musaango yino ekwiikiriribhwa ne emigiro gyeetu. 40 Amangʼana gano tukoriri reero garanagya kugirya tukazoongerwa. Tutana ekigirirye kino tuungakoriri kitusakirye kungʼaanga yino, kwo orwaambi runo rutana bhweera.” 41 Hano omukaami wuyo yamariri kubhabhuurira abhaatu bhayo, akabhanyaragania bhagye yiika.
