1 Mu kitebe kya beikiriza ba Yesu̱ kyʼAntyoki̱ya, haalingimwo baragu̱ri̱ ba Ruhanga, hamwenya na beegesa ba bigambu bya Yesu̱. Bab̯wo bantu, baalingi: Bbaranaba, Si̱myoni̱ gi̱beetengi̱ Mwi̱ragu̱ru̱, Lu̱si̱yo Mu̱ku̱leeni̱, Manayeni̱ (munyakuhanda hamwei̱ na weisaza gi̱beetengi̱ Herodi̱) hamwei̱ na Sau̱lo. 2 Kiro ki̱mwei̱, beikiriza ba Yesu̱ b̯ubaali nibakuramya Ruhanga, kandi de nibali mu kisiibo, Mwozo Mu̱syanu̱ yaabazi̱ri̱ nabo, naaraba mu mu̱ragu̱ri̱ wa Ruhanga. Yaabazi̱ri̱ naakoba, “Mu̱sorooremwo Bbaranaba na Sau̱lo, babbe bantu bange, bakugyenda kukora mulimo gwange, gu̱mbeeteeri̱ kukora.” 3 Nahab̯waki̱kyo, beikiriza ba Yesu̱ b̯u̱baamaari̱ kusiiba na kusaba, baata mikono myab̯u hali Sau̱lo na Bbaranaba, baabasabira, baabasi̱ndi̱ka kuheereza.

4 Mwozo Mu̱syanu̱ b̯u̱yaatu̱mi̱ri̱ Sau̱lo na Bbaranaba, baabyokeerye baaruga Antyoki̱ya, baagyenda mu rub̯uga lwetwa Seleu̱si̱ya. Hahwo b̯u̱baaru̱gi̱ri̱ho, baatemba b̯wati̱ b̯wabatwala mu ki̱zi̱nga kyetwa Ki̱pu̱ro. 5 Ku ki̱zi̱nga ki̱kyo, baajaami̱ri̱ ha rub̯uga lwetwa Salami̱i̱si̱. Salami̱i̱si̱ hahwo, baagyendi̱ri̱ mu marombero ga Bayudaaya, baatebeerya bantu kigambu kya Ruhanga. Baalingi na Yohaana Mari̱ko naakubaheereza, mu mulimo gwa ku̱tebya.

6 Baaru̱gi̱i̱ri̱ Salami̱i̱si̱, ha rubaju lu̱mwei̱ lwa ki̱zi̱nga, baaraba hakati̱ waakyo, baagyenda ku rubaju lwakyo lundi, baadwa mu rub̯uga lwetwa Paafo. Ku̱kwo hooho baagi̱i̱rye mudulu Muyudaaya, gi̱beetengi̱ Baru̱-yesu̱, kandi bandi gi̱beetengi̱ Eli̱ma. Yogwo mudulu, yaakorengi̱ bintu bya masana, kandi niyeefoora kubba omwei̱ ha baragu̱ri̱ ba Ruhanga. 7 Baru̱-yesu̱, yaalingi munywani wa mu̱handu̱ wa ki̱zi̱nga ki̱kyo gi̱beetengi̱ Seru̱gi̱yo Pau̱lo. Mu̱handu̱ yogwo, yaalingi mudulu mu̱gezi̱ hoi̱. Kiro ki̱mwei̱, mu̱handu̱ yogwo yeeteseerye Bbaranaba na Sau̱lo, hab̯wakubba yendyengi̱, badwe bamu̱tebeerye kigambu kya Ruhanga. 8 Bei̱tu̱ Eli̱ma, gi̱beetengi̱ munyamasana (kubba gagwo googo gaali makuru geibara lyamwe Eli̱ma), yaabazi̱ri̱ kubiibi hali bigambu bya Ruhanga, bya Bbaranaba na Sau̱lo bi̱baabazengi̱. Yaalingi na kigyendererwa kya ku̱habi̱sya Seru̱gi̱yo Pau̱lo, ateikiririza mu Yesu̱. 9 Mwomwo Sau̱lo, munyakubba de yeegebeerwe nka Pau̱lo, Mwozo Mu̱syanu̱ yaamub̯uukulira, yaasimba yogwo mudulu mei̱so, yaamuweera 10 “Oli na mize nka mya munyanzigwa, Sitaani. Kandi, obba munyanzigwa wa b̯uli kintu kyenseenya kirungi! Oi̱zwi̱ri̱ b̯u̱gobya na b̯ubiibi b̯wa b̯uli mu̱li̱ngo! Kiro kyani kyolileka kufoora mananu ga Ruhanga b̯u̱gobya? 11 Hataati̱, Mukama Ruhanga akugyenda kukufubira. Okugyenda kwijala mei̱so, olemwe kuwona lyoba, ku̱doosya Ruhanga b̯waligeijula.”

Nahaahwo mei̱so gʼEli̱ma gei̱jeeri̱, geisana nka gei̱zi̱i̱rwemwo kiho na nti̱ti̱. Yaatandi̱ki̱ri̱ ku̱pu̱mpu̱u̱ta, naagazagaza muntu yaamukwata ha mukono, kumwehembera amu̱li̱batye. 12 Mu̱handu̱ Seru̱gi̱yo Pau̱lo b̯u̱yaaweeni̱ mei̱so gʼEli̱ma gei̱jeeri̱, nka Pau̱lo kuyaali abazi̱ri̱, bigambu bi̱beegesyengi̱ hali Mukama Yesu̱, byamuhuniriza hoi̱; yaacwamwo, yeikiririza mu Mukama Yesu̱.

13 B̯u̱baaru̱gi̱ri̱ Paafo, Pau̱lo na bei̱ra baamwe baatembi̱ri̱ b̯wati̱ baagyenda mu rub̯uga lwetwa Peru̱ga, lwa mwisaza lya Panfi̱li̱ya. B̯ubaali ku̱kwo, Yohaana Mari̱ko yaabarugaho, yaaku̱bayo mu rub̯uga Yeru̱salemu̱. 14 B̯u̱baaru̱gi̱ri̱ Peru̱ga, baagyenda mu rub̯uga lwʼAntyoki̱ya lwicala heehi̱ na kicweka kya Pi̱si̱di̱ya. Ha kiro kya Sabbaato kinyakuhonderaho, baagyendi̱ri̱ mwi̱rombero lya Bayudaaya, baadwa beicaara. 15 Hei̱nyu̱ma gya kusoma bitabbu bibaza ha biragiro bya Mu̱sa, na bi̱byo bya baragu̱ri̱ ba Ruhanga bi̱baahandi̱i̱ki̱ri̱, bahandu̱ bei̱rombero baatu̱mi̱ri̱ muntu agyende hali Pau̱lo na bei̱ra baamwe abaweere, “Bayudaaya bei̱ra beetu̱, mwakabba nimuli na b̯ukwenda b̯u̱ku̱tati̱i̱rya bantu, tukubasaba mub̯utuweere.”

16 Hei̱nyu̱ma gya kutunga b̯u̱b̯wo b̯ukwenda, Pau̱lo yeemereeri̱, yaakoresya mukono gwamwe kweti̱kereerya bantu, kasi yaatandika kubabaliza. Yaabazi̱ri̱ naakoba, “Bei̱saleeri̱ bei̱ra bange, nanywe Banyamahanga baramya Ruhanga kandi ni̱mu̱mwegwa, mu̱nyeetegeerye. 17 Ruhanga yogwo, twe Bei̱saleeri̱ gi̱tu̱ramya, yaakomi̱ri̱ bahaaha beetu̱ yaabafoora ihanga likooto, mu nsi gya Mi̱si̱ri̱. Yaakoreseerye b̯u̱sobozi̱ b̯wamwe b̯unyamaani, yaabatoola mwihanga li̱lyo. 18 Yei̱ceeri̱ nabo mwirungu, naagumisirizanga bikorwa byab̯u bibiibi, kumala myaka makumi ganei. 19 Kandi, yaabasagi̱ki̱ri̱, baasi̱ngu̱ra mahanga musanju ganyakwicalanga mu nsi gya Kanani̱; nsi gi̱gyo yaagiha bantu baamwe Bayudaaya, gibbe b̯ugwete b̯wab̯u. 20 Bi̱byo byensei̱ hamwei̱, byatweri̱ myaka bi̱ku̱mi̱ binei na gataanu.

“Bi̱byo b̯u̱byamali̱ki̱ri̱, Ruhanga yaabaha basali̱ ba misangu babeebembera kudwera ki̱mwei̱ ha b̯u̱su̱mi̱ b̯wa mu̱ragu̱ri̱ waamwe, gi̱beetengi̱ Samwi̱ri̱. 21 Samwi̱ri̱ hayaabbeereeri̱ mu̱ragu̱ri̱ wa Ruhanga, Bayudaaya baasabi̱ri̱ Ruhanga abakomere mukama. Ruhanga yaabakomera Sau̱lo mu̱tabani̱ wa Ki̱si̱, wa mu luganda lwa Bbenyami̱i̱ni̱, yaabalema kumala myaka makumi ganei. 22 Ruhanga b̯u̱yaatoori̱ho Sau̱lo, yaabateeraho Dau̱di̱ abbe mukama waab̯u. Ruhanga yaabazi̱ri̱ hali yogwo Dau̱di̱ naakoba, ‘Nkyagi̱i̱rye nti, Dau̱di̱ mu̱tabani̱ wa Yese, yooyo muntu gi̱nku̱si̱i̱ma, alikora bintu byenseenya gya bi̱nkwendya akore.’

23 “Kuruga mu nda gya yogwo mukama Dau̱di̱, Ruhanga aleeteeri̱ ihanga lyʼI̱saleeri̱ mu̱ju̱ni̱ gibeeta Yesu̱, nka yo Ruhanga, kuyaali aragani̱si̱i̱rye mukama Dau̱di̱. 24 Yesu̱ b̯uyaali atakabbeeri̱ kutandika mulimo gwamwe, Yohaana Mu̱bati̱zi̱ yaatebeerye bigambu bya Ruhanga mu Bei̱saleeri̱ bensei̱, naabaweeranga beezi̱remwo bibii byab̯u, babatizib̯we. 25 Yohaana b̯uyaali naakumaliira mulimo gwamwe gu̱yaakoorengi̱ Ruhanga, yaab̯u̱u̱li̱i̱rye bantu naakoba, ‘Nywe mukuteekereza ndi naani? Gya tindi yogwo Ku̱ri̱si̱to, Mutongoole wa Ruhanga, gimwicala mu̱li̱ndi̱ri̱i̱ri̱ ei̱ze. Bei̱tu̱ yo, ali̱yo akwi̱za kwei̱nyu̱ma lyange. Kwega kwakunkira hoi̱ mu kubba na ki̱ti̱i̱ni̱sa, gya tinkusemeera kadi na kukucama kwahula b̯uguha b̯wa nkei̱to zaamwe.’

26 “Bayudaaya bei̱ra bange, kandi de beizukulu bʼI̱bbu̱rahi̱mu̱, nanywe Banyamahanga baramya Ruhanga, twetwe bantu ba Ruhanga baatu̱mi̱i̱ri̱ b̯ub̯u b̯ukwenda b̯wa kujunwa kuraba mu Yesu̱. 27 Kubba, bei̱cali̱ ba Yeru̱salemu̱ hamwenya na beebemberi̱ baab̯u, batakeetegereze Yesu̱ nka kwali yooyo Ku̱ri̱si̱to, Mutongoole wa Ruhanga wa baragu̱ri̱ ba Ruhanga gi̱baaragwi̱ri̱ho.

32-33 “Natwe haha, twi̱zi̱ri̱ kubaleetera Makuru Garungi gakukoba: ki̱kyo kya Ruhanga ki̱iyaaragani̱si̱i̱rye bahaaha beetu̱ nti alikora, aki̱doosereerye, yaakikolera twe beizukulu baab̯u, b̯wahi̱mboori Yesu̱ kuruga mu baku̱u̱.
