16 Hatupfikile Roma, Pauli tsakalekelighwa kukala yaliyeka hamwe ne asikali iyang'ali yombetetsa.
17 Ghamatsuwa madatu hambele kawakema hamwe pfilongotsi wa Wayahudi. Hawetingane Pauli kawalongela, “Ndughu tsangu, nene sitendile chinu chochose bae chihile kwe iwanu wangu, wala silemile ipfihendo pfe iwabala wetu. Lekeni tsanighoghighwa ako Yerusalemu na kwikighwa mne ghamoko ghe Waroma. 18 Waroma hawamalitse kunighutsa wabama wandekelele, kwaapfila nahela totso ilinitenda nikomighwe 19 Lekeni pfilongotsi wa Wayahudi hawalemile, chinu acho chinitenda nibame nihighighwe ne mndewa wa Roma.

21 Nawo wamlongela, “Twetwe ng'ana tubokele bae ibaluwa yoyose ilawile Yudeya, kuya kuduhu iwanu iwatsile kulawa ako kutulongela mbuli tsako tsihile. 22 Lekeni twobama tukuhulike ghweghwe ghumwenyegho ulongatse, kwaapfila chatumanya twetwe chila hanu iwanu wolilonga pfihile kingili lyako lino.”
23 Apfo welaghana wetingane na Pauli mne litsuwa lingi, na iwanu wengi wamtsila ukaye yake. Kulawa nemitondo mbaka nemihe Pauli tsakawalongela mbuli tse undewa we Imulungu, na kwa Ghamalaghitso gha Musa na ghamaandiko ghe wanabii we Imulungu, kaghetsa kuwakwegha wamtoghole Yesu. 24 Iwanu wamwenga waghatoghola ghayalongighwe na Pauli, lekeni wamwenga ng'awatoghole bae. 25 Hawang'ali wesonga wawo kwa wawo na kwandusa ukuka, Pauli kalonga imbuli ino, “Ghumuhe Mwenzeluka tsakalonga ghoya kuna iwabala wenu kubitila Isaya, nabii we Imulungu. 26 tsakalonga
‘Ghenda uwalongele iwanu wano,
mtsohulika na kuhulika lekeni ng'amtsomanya bae,

Waleke ukwona kwa tsinenge tsawo,
na kuhulika kwa maghutwi ghawo,
na kumanya kwa imimoyo yawo,
watsileke nzila tsawo tsihile, kuya niwahonetse.’ ”
28 Kuya Pauli kalonga, “Apfo nobama mmanye imbuli ye ukombotsi wa Imulungu ighalighwa kuna Iwanu si Wayahudi, wawo watsoihulikitsa!” 29 Pauli hamalitse kulonga apfo, Wayahudi woka aku wesonga ng'ani iwenyegho kwa iwenyegho.
