Yamalheke chittu chonkhaye chapurulhelhiya tho wiirimu. 11 Wo uhipicha, attu araru yaakhumme Ukaisariya, yaarumiye ukiweelha yahowa unupani waakhalha aka. 12 Iphumu ya Nlhuku nkaakihimeria wiira kihikelhiye nipampa, kirweeke kaattukaneke. Nlhoko wa attu sita o Uyafa yahokittukana urwaa Ukaisariya. Ni wowo hii onkhaye va nahokelha unupani wa Nakonelio.

13 “Nakonelio yahonihimeria chenre aya wo woona nnepa uneemenlhe nnupani mwaya ni weerelha, ‘Munrume ntu Uyafa mmwiihane ntu neehaniya Simoni, wo nchina nikina Peturo. 14 Yoyo nouhimeriani malhove ni wo yayo malhove ayo inyuva ni inupa inyu yonkhaye nnowoopolhiya.’ 15 Vaachokhonlhe aka tu wulhumacha, Iphumu ya Nlhuku ahaakhuruwelha thoko chaanikhuruwenlhe aya hii khalhayi valhe. 16 Vavawo kahoopuwelha malhove yoolhumanche aya Athithi, ‘Nayohana yahabatiiza attu wo maashi, nansho mwaattiva nnobatiiziya wo Iphumu ya Nlhuku.’ 17 Yakhalhaka Nlhuku hoona ihorera waavaha attu ahiri Ayahudi machiri anivanhe awe hii vaarumelhenlhe ihu Athithi Yesu Kuristo, chani, mii phi mpani ata kilhikache unvaanyiha Nlhuku?”

18 Yeeweke yayo malhove ayo, nkayaahiya uvaanyiha, nkayanthimicha Nlhuku eeraka, “Nlhuku haavaha attu ahiri Ayahudi nipesha no ukhoroma apatte ukumi!”

19 Attu akina yanrumelhenlhe Yesu yaamwarielhe wo nlhatu no ntwarusho waakhumelhenlhe ikatema veeviye aya Nastefano, yahorwaa Ufoinike ni Ukipro ni Uantiokiya ahimiachaka nttenga wa Nlhuku wa Ayahudi vekha ayaru. 20 Nansho owiittucha akina yaari attu yaakhumme Ukipro ni Ukirene, yahorwaa Uantiokiya nkayaahimiacha yoyo nttenga uyo wa Ayahudi e Iyunani, yaahimiacheraka Malhove Orera anaacha Athithi Yesu. 21 Machiri a Athithi yaari vamoka ni ayo ni attu enchi yahorumelhelha nkayaarukunuwelha Athithi.

22 Yoyo mwaha uyo nkaweewania wa attu anrumelhenlhe Kuristo o Uyerusalemu. Paahi etu nkayaaruma Nabanaba arwee Uantiokiya. 23 Vaaphilhe aya wowo ni woona Nlhuku chenre awe wo waavaha nnema attu, ahoteelhiya ni waakurumicha onkhaye wiira athepeke waakhulhuvelha Athithi wo nrima waya wonkhaye. 24 Nabanaba yaari ntu o nrima woombone, aachariye Iphumu ya Nlhuku ni o upisha nrima. Nlhoko mwinchi wa attu nkawaarukunuwelha Athithi.

Ni wo machiri o Iphumu ya Nlhuku nkaayalhohera wiira unookhalha ikuruna ilhapo yonkhaye. Yeyo ikuruna iyo yaakhumelhenlhe ikatema Nakilaudiyo vaatawara aya. 29 Akuristo o Uantiokiya nkayaalhakelha wiira kila mmoka chooria arweehe ittu iriyoothe yo waakavihera nlhoko wa owiittucha ashikhunanaya anokhalha Uyudea. 30 Nkayaapanga chiicho, nkayaaruma Nabanaba ni Nasauli urweeha nchurukhu wa ashulhupalhe.
