Vakuvadandaulila njila ya kusanguka!” 18Akitili chenicho kwa magono gamahele mbaka ligono limonga Pauli akayoma, akamng'anamukila na kuujovela mzuka wula, “Muuhotola wa Yesu Kilisitu nikulagiza muwuka mundu uyu!” Bahapo mzuka wula ukamuwuka.
19Vakulu va mvanda yula pavawene mpangu wavi wa kupata mashonga kuhuma kwa mvanda wavi umaliki, vakavakamula Pauli na Sila na kuvakwekesa pandu pakugulisila vindu, palongolo ya vakulu va muji. 20Vakavatakila kwa vahamula mihalu va Loma na kujova, “Vandu ava vileta chitututu pamuji witu navene ndi Vayawudi. 21Viwula mivelu yeyibesiwi kwa tete vandu va ku Loma kuyidakila na kuyilanda.” 22Na msambi wa vandu wewavi penapo ukavatova Pauli na Sila.
Kangi vahamula mihalu vala vakavapapula nyula za Pauli na Sila, vakahamula vatovewayi ndonga. 23Pevamali kuvatova neju, vakavasopa muchifungu na linjolinjoli wa jela alagaziwi kuvya mihu muulonda. 24Ndava ya malagizu genago, linjolinjoli wa jela akavasopa muchumba cha mugati neju na kuvakunga magendelu gavi muhibiki.
25Peyahikili pagati ya kilu Pauli na Sila vamuyupayi na kumuyimbila nyimbu za kumulumbalila Chapanga, kuni vafungwa vayavi vakuvayuwanila. 26Chigafula mndendemo mvaha wa ndima ukahumila, wewanyugwisi mikingisa ya jela.

29Linjolinjoli yula peamali kuyupa hahi, akajumbalila mugati akajigwisa pahi pa magendelu ga Pauli na Sila kuni ivagaya kwa wogohi. 30Kangi akavalongosa mbaka kuvala, akavakota, “Mwavakulu vangu, nikita kyani nihotola kusanguka?”
31Vene vakamyangula, “Umsadika Bambu Yesu ndi veve pamonga na vandu va munyumba yaku yati mwisanguliwa.” 32Hinu vakamkokosela Lilovi la Bambu mwene pamonga na vandu va munyumba yaki. 33Lukumbi lulolo lwa kilu, linjolinjoli wa jela yula akavatola na kuvasambisa mavamba gavi, kangi mwene na vandu va munyumba yaki vabatiziwi bahapo. 34Kangi akavagongolela Pauli na Sila kunyumba yaki, kuvapela chakulya. Mwene pamonga na vandu va munyumba yaki vakavya na luheku neju ndava hinu vakumsadika Chapanga.
35Chilau yaki lukela, vahamula mihalu va Chiloma vavatumili vakulu va manjolinjoli na malagizu aga, “Muvadindulila vandu vala.”
36Linjolinjoli wa jela akamjovela Pauli, “Vahamula mihalu va Loma vatumili na ujumbi uwu kwa veve na Sila mudinduliwayi. Hinu mwihotola kuhuma na muhamba na uteke.”
37Nambu Pauli akamyangula, “Gavi wuli? Tahokili lepi vatitovili ndonga pavandu kuni tavete tavakolonjinji wa ku Loma. Kangi vatisopili muchifungu na hinu vigana kutidindulila cha mfiyu! Hati padebe! Yikuvagana vene vahamula mihalu ndi vabwela kutidindulila.”
38Vakulu va manjolinjoli vakavadandaulila lijambu lila vahamula mihalu, hinu vene pevayuwini kuvya Pauli na Sila vavi vakolonjinji va mulima wa ku Loma vayogwipi. 39Ndi vakahamba na kujova, “Chondi mpepayi,” Na pavavahumisi mugati, vakavayupa vawuka pamuji wula. 40Pauli na Sila pavahumili muchifungu vakahamba kunyumba ya Lidia, kwenuko vakakonganeka na vamsadika. Pevamali kuvakangamalisa mitima vakawuka.
