5 Kibila dedi bo muzabidi, Yoane wubotikila batu mu nlangu, vayi benu mua bilumbu to bisiedi, lunkuiza botimina mu phevi yinlongo.”

12 Bosi bawu bananguka ku mongo wu minti mi Olive ayi bavutuka ku Yelusalemi; vawu vaba nduka kilometro yimueka*.
13 Bo bavitila*, bawu bamaka ku sala yiba ku kibanga ki nzo bavikila. Ayi va khati’awu vaba Petelo, Yoane, Tiago, Andele, Filipi, Tomasi, Batolomeu, Matai, Tiago muana Alifeu, Simoni mvandi bantedilanga nkua kifuza ayi Yuda muana wu Tiago.

15 Mu bilumbu beni, bo thalu yi batu baba kutakananga yiyiza ba nduka 120 di batu, Petelo wutelama va ntual’awu ayi wutuba:
16 “Zikhomba, vaba tombulu mambu Davidi kabikula mu nzila phevi yinlogno matedi Yuda, no wutuadisa batu bayiza kanga Yesu, masalama.
17 Kibila nandi mvandi wuba wumueka mu befu ayi wusolu, muingi kubuela mioko kisalu akiki ki kusamuna.
18 (Dibakala adiodio, wusumba tsola mu zimbongo zikhambulu zisonga ayi bo kabuila ki ntu, kivumu kiandi kibuka ayi midi* miandi mioso mibasika.
19 Ayi mambu amomo mayiza zabakana kuidi batu boso baba ku Yelusalemi, diawu tsola beni yiyiza zabikinina mu mbembu’awu Akelidama, mawu mansundula “Tsola yi Menga.”)
20 Kibila madi masonama mu Minkunga ti: ‘Kibuangu kiandi kankalanga kiala siadila bobo ayi ni mutu kalasa bue kala ko kuna,’ mvandi: ‘Bika mutu wunkaka katambula kiyeku kiandi ki kukengidila.’
21 Diawu, vantombulu kusola wumueka mu babakala baba diatanga yitu, mu thangu Mfumu kavanga kisalu kiandi va khat’itu,
22 kutona mu kilumbu Yoane kambotika nati mu kilumbu bannata ku diyilu, muingi kaba mbangi yi luvulubukusu luandi va khat’itu.”
23 Mu phila ayoyo, bawu basola batu buadi, Matia ayi Yozefi baba tedilanga Balisabasi ayi mvandi wuba wuzabakana mu dizina di Yustu.
24 Bosi bawu basambila mu kutuba: “A Yave, ngie zebi mintima mi batu boso, wu tuzabikisa nani mu babakala ababa ngie besola,
25 muingi katambula kiyeku akiki ki kisalu ki kusamuna ayi ki kuba mvuala*; biyeku bio Yuda kayekula muingi kadiatila mu nzil’andi veka.”
