2 Be ni atsɛ Tertulo lɛ, ekɛ saji bɔi enɔshwiemɔ ekɛɛ:
“Akɛni kɛtsɔ onɔ lɛ wɔná toiŋjɔlɛ babaoo, ni bɔ ni okwɛɔ nii kɛyaa shɔŋŋ lɛ ehã tsakemɔi miiba jeŋmaŋ nɛɛ mli hewɔ lɛ,

9 Kɛkɛ ni Yudafoi lɛ hu kɛ amɛnaa wo mli ni amɛma nɔ mi akɛ nibii nɛɛ yɛ mli.
10 Be ni amralo lɛ kɛ eyitso fee okadi etsɔɔ Paulo akɛ ewie lɛ, Paulo hã hetoo akɛ:
“Akɛni mile jogbaŋŋ akɛ okojo jeŋmaŋ nɛɛ afii babaoo hewɔ lɛ, miyɛ he miishɛɛ akɛ majie minaa yɛ ohiɛ.
11 Kɛ́ obi mli lɛ, obaana akɛ be ni mikwɔ kɛtee Yerusalem koni miyajá lɛ, eyeko nɔ ni fe gbii nyɔŋma kɛ enyɔ;

13 Ni asaŋ, saji ni amɛkɛshwieɔ minɔ amrɔ nɛɛ, amɛnyɛŋ naa amɛtsɔɔ yɛ ohiɛ akɛ anɔkwale ni.
14 Shi mikpɛlɛɔ enɛ nɔ yɛ ohiɛ akɛ mihiɔ shi yɛ shihilɛ gbɛ ni amɛtsɛɔ lɛ jamɔ kuu ko lɛ naa, ni nɛkɛ shihilɛ gbɛ nɛɛ nɔ nɔŋŋ mitsɔɔ miŋɔɔ sɔɔmɔ krɔŋŋ mihãa mitsɛmɛi a-Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ, ni miheɔ nibii fɛɛ ni aŋmala yɛ Mla lɛ kɛ Gbalɔi lɛ amli lɛ miyeɔ.

17 Agbɛnɛ, afii saŋŋ sɛɛ lɛ, miba koni mikɛ ejurɔfeemɔ nibii abahã mimaŋ lɛ, ni maŋɔ afɔlei hu mahã.
18 Be ni mitsuɔ nibii nɛɛ ahe nii lɛ, amɛna mi akɛ mitsuu mihe yɛ kusum naa yɛ sɔlemɔwe lɛ, shi amɛnaaa mi kɛ asafoku ko, loo akɛ miihã aafee basabasa. Shi Yudafoi komɛi ni jɛ Asia kpokpaa lɛ nɔ yɛ jɛmɛ,

20 Aloo, hã hii ni yɔɔ biɛ lɛ diɛŋtsɛ atsɔɔ nɔ fɔŋ ni amɛna yɛ mihe be ni midamɔ Sanhedrin* lɛ hiɛ lɛ,

22 Shi akɛni Felike le anɔkwa saji ni kɔɔ Gbɛ nɛɛ he lɛ jogbaŋŋ hewɔ lɛ, etsi amɛ eto ni ekɛɛ: “Be fɛɛ be ni tatsɛ Lisia baakpeleke shi kɛba lɛ, makpɛ yiŋ yɛ nyɛsaji nɛɛ ahe.”
23 Ni ekɛ famɔi hã asraafoiatsɛ lɛ akɛ eya nɔ ewo nuu lɛ tsuŋ, shi ehã ená hejɔlɛ fioo yɛ tsuŋwoohe lɛ, ni akɛ, eŋmɛ Paulo webii lɛ gbɛ koni amɛbatsu ehiamɔ nii ahe nii amɛhã lɛ.
24 Gbii komɛi asɛɛ lɛ, Felike kɛ eŋa Drusila ni ji Yuda yoo lɛ ba, ni ehã ayaŋɔ Paulo kɛba, ni ebo nɔ ni eyɔɔ kɛɛmɔ yɛ Kristo Yesu mli hemɔkɛyeli lɛ he lɛ toi.
25 Shi be ni Paulo wie jalɛ kɛ henɔyeli kɛ kojomɔ ni baaba lɛ he lɛ, Felike she gbeyei ni ehã hetoo akɛ: “Bo lɛ yaa dã, shi kɛ́ miná hegbɛ lɛ, matsu ni abatsɛ bo ekoŋŋ.”
26 Nakai be lɛ mli nɔŋŋ lɛ, eekpa gbɛ akɛ Paulo baahã lɛ shika. No hewɔ lɛ, etsuɔ ni ayatsɛɔ lɛ kɛbaa kpitiokpitio ni ekɛ lɛ gbaa sane.
