2 Bua biabia, tshite muakuidi mukata Ananiase, baadi mutumine baaba abaadi pepi naye eyi bua kumukupila kukanua.

6 Binobino, bubibaukanga Mpoolo’shi munkatshi mua bena Tumiladi tukata tua bena Yunda mui ba Saduseo na Bafadisee, belele musaase’shi: “Bakuetu, ami ne Mufadisee, muana a Bafadisee. Mpa muanda wa lukulupilo lua lusangukilo lua bafue pabakuete kunsambisha.”
7 Pabakuile bino, kuikutuena kubatuukile pankatshi pa Bafadisee na Basaduseo, na kisaka nkuiabuula.

10 Pabaadi kuikutuena akuende na kukaamina, komanda nkutshina’shi, tala basaasula Mpoolo, na aye nkutumina basalayi eyi bua’shi bayikie bamukaashe munkatshi muabo na bende naye ku kartie ka basalayi.
11 Kadi bufuku bubalondele, Muanana bemeene pepi naye na amba’shi: “Nyinga eshimba muanda nka bibotuusha bukamonyi ngofu mu Yelusalema pa muanda wande, biabia nyi abitungu’shi otuushe dingi bukamonyi mu Loma.”
12 Pabubatookiele, bena Yunda abadiile lukuku betshipa bambanga’shi t’abadi sunga kutoma mpa na p’abayipayila Mpoolo.
13 Kubaadi bana balume 40 babaadi badie lukuku na kukita uno mutshipo.
14 Bano bana balume babayile kui bakata ba ba tshite muakuidi na bakulu bamba’shi: “Tui betshipe’shi t’atudi kintu su nkimune mpa na p’atuipayila Mpoolo.
15 Binobino anue pamune na Tumiladi tukata tua bena Yunda abitungu nulungule komanda bua’shi afikie naye kuanudi bu’shi anukiebe kutaluula muanda waye kalolo. Kadi kumpala kua’shi afikie pepi atuikala belumbuule bua kumuipaa.”
16 Anka, muipu a Mpoolo bapushishe kuabakula bua uno muteo ubaabadi abalumbuula, aye nkutuela mu kartie ka basalayi, na nkulungula Mpoolo bianka.
17 Akupu Mpoolo nkuitanyina umune a ku bakata ba basalayi na nkumulungula’shi: “Nda na uno nsongualume kui komanda muanda ena muanda wa kumulungula.”
18 Biabia bamuatshile enda naye kui komanda, amba’shi: “Mpoolo muina lukano banyitanyina na bantekie buandia kufika na uno nsongualume kodi muanda ena muanda wa nkulungula.”
19 Komanda nkumukuata kuiyasa nkuenda naye ku lupese na nkumuipusha’shi: “Mmuanda kinyi okiebe kundungula?”
20 Aye nkuamba’shi: “Bena Yunda, babepushena bua nkuteka bua’shi wende na Mpoolo ku Tumiladi tukata tua bena Yunda malooba, bu’shi abakiebe kuuka mianda ibungi pabitale muanda waye.
21 Kadi totadilanga’shi bakukuminyishe, muanda bana balume bakile pa 40 mbelumbuule bua kumutee muteo na mbetshipe’shi t’abadi sunga kutoma mpa na p’abepayila Mpoolo; mbelumbuule abatengiela bua’shi webape matalua.”
22 Biabia komanda baluishe yawa nsongualume kunyima kua’ye kumutumina eyi’shi: “Tolungulanga muntu su ngumune’shi bondungula bianka.”
23 Aye nkuitanyisha babidi ba ku bakata ba basalayi na nkuibalungula’shi: “Lumbuulayi basalayi 200 na basalayi 70 abakaaminaa pa mpunda, na basalayi 200 be na mikietue, bua kuenda ku Kezaree mu nsaa ya kasatu* ya bufuku.
24 Dingi, lumbuulayi mpunda ya kutuala Mpoolo, bua nkamufisha kui guvernere Felikse kushi masaku.”
25 Na aye nkufunda mukanda wi na ino mianda’shi:
26 “Ami Klodiuse Lisiase, kui a kunemekiibua guvernere Felikse: Nakuimuna!
27 Uno muntu bekeele bamukuate kui bena Yunda, na abakimbanga kumuipaa, kadi nfikile bukidibukidi na basalayi bande namupaasha muanda nkatukile mu kuuka’shi mmuina Loma.
28 Bu biankimbanga kuuka muanda wabamufundanga nao, naadi muende naye ku Tumiladi tuabo tukata tua bena Yunda.
29 Mmuene’shi abamufundanga bua mianda itale Muiya wabo, kadi kushi kumufunda bua muanda su ngumune ulombene lufu sunga lukano.
30 Kadi bu bibaabangukisha lukuku lubaabadiila uno muntu, namutumu kodi mususa umune, na natumina abamufundu eyi bua’shi bafikie bamufunde kumpala kobe.”
31 Biabia bano basalayi, babatshile Mpoolo, muyile mayi abaabadi bebatumine na benda naye bufuku bufuku ku Antipatrise.
32 Efuku dibalondele, abaadi batadiile bua’shi basalayi abakaaminaa pa mpunda batungunukie na kuenda naye kadi bangi basalayi boso babalukiile ku kartie ka basalayi.
33 Basalayi abakaaminaa pa mpunda nkutuela mu Kezaree abo nkupa guvernere mukanda na nkumulesha dingi Mpoolo.
34 Biabia beubadikile na epusha Mpoolo’shi, nga mu provense kinyi, aye nkumulungula’shi nga mu Silisi.
35 Aye nkumulungula’shi: “Nakakuteemesha kalolo apafiki bakufunde.” Na aye nkutuma eyi bua’shi bamulame muibalasa dia Erode.
