(Matendu 22:6-16; 26:12-18)
1Nambu lukumbi lwenulo, Sauli ayonjokisi kuvayogofya kwa kuvakoma vamulanda va Bambu. Akahamba kwa Mteta Mkulu, 2akayupa balua ya kummanyisa kwa nyumba za kukonganekela Vayawudi zezavi ku Damasko, muni akavakolela vandu vevilanda Njila ya Bambu, vagosi amala vadala, avakamula na kuvaleta ku Yelusalemu.
3Sauli peavi munjila papipi kuhika ku Damasko, chigafula lumuli kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga lukamtindila kumlangasa mwene pandi zoha. 4Sauli akagwa pahi ndi akayuwana lwami lukumjovela, “Sauli, Sauli! Ndava kyani ukuning'aha?”
5Sauli akakota, “Ndi wayani veve, Bambu?”
Na lwami lula lukayangula, “Nene ndi Yesu mweukuning'aha. 6Nambu hinu yima uhamba kumujini, kwenuko ndi kwewijoviwa chechikugana kuchihenga.”
7Vandu vevavi mulugendu pamonga na Sauli vayimili nuu ndava ya kukangaswa, vayuwini lwami lula nambu vamuwene lepi mundu yoyoha. 8Sauli akayinuka, peagubukwili mihu gaki, nakuhotola kulola, hinu vandu vevavi mulugendu nawu vakamkamula chiwoko kumlongosa mbaka ku Damasko. 9Sauli atamili magono gadatu changalola, na lukumbi lwenulo lwoha atamii changalya chindu amala kunywa chindu chochoha.
10Damasko kula ndi kwavili na msadika mmonga liina laki Anania. Mwenuyo akemeliwi kujovewa na Bambu mumawono, “Anania!”
Mwene akayidika, “Nivii apa, Bambu.”
11Mwene Bambu akamjovela, “Ujitendelekahi uhamba kunjila yeyikemelewa Selede mbaka kunyumba ya Yuda ukotayi kumvala mundu yula mweahumili ku Taso, liina laki Sauli. Hinu akumuyupa Chapanga, 12na Sauli amali kuloleswa mumaono na Bambu, kuvya mundu mweikemiwa Anania avi kuyingila mugati na kumvikila mawoko muni alola kavili.”
13Nambu Anania akayangula, “Bambu, vandu vamahele nivayuwini mambu gakumvala mundu uyu, niyuwini gahakau neju geavahengili vamsadika vaku ku Yelusalemu kula. 14Na hinu vamteta vakulu vampeli uhotola Sauli abwela kuni ku Damasko kuvakamula voha vevakukusadika veve.”
15Nambu Bambu akamjovela Anania, “Uhamba ndu, muni mwenuyo nimuhagwili muni anihengela, kukokosa ndava ya liina langu kwa vandu vangali Vayawudi na vankosi vavi na kwa vandu va Isilaeli. 16Namwene yati nikumlangisa mambu gamahele gegakumgana kung'aiswa ndava yangu.”
17Hinu Anania akahamba mbaka panyumba yeniyo, akayingila mugati, kangi akamvikila mawoko Sauli. Akamjovela “Mlongo Sauli, Bambu Yesu ndi mweanitumili, mwene akuhumalili pawakavili munjila kubwela kuni, anitumili nene muni uhotola kulola kavili na kumemeswa Mpungu Msopi.” 18Bahapo vindu ngati magagau vikagwa pahi kuhuma mumihu mwa Sauli, ndi akalola kavili. Hinu akayima, akabatiziwa, 19na peamali kulya chakulya makakala gaki gakamuwuyila.

Sauli atamili pamonga na vawuliwa magono gadebe ku Damasko kula. 20Bahapo akatumbula kukokosa munyumba za kukonganekela Vayawudi, kuvya Yesu ndi Mwana wa Chapanga.
21Vandu voha vevamyuwini vakakangasa, vakakota, “Wu, mundu mwenuyu lepi yula mweavakomili vandu vala vevamuyupayi kwa liina la Yesu wa ku Yelusalemu? Na ndava ya mpangu wenuwo ndi abwela penapa, avakamula vandu na kuvapeleka kwa vamteta vakulu!”
22Sauli akayonjokeseka ukekesi na makakala, ndava ya kujova hotohoto kuvya Yesu ndi Kilisitu, Vayawudi va ku Damasko luhala lukavayaga.
23Pagamaliki magono gamahele, Vayawudi vakakonganeka na kukita mpangu wa kumkoma Sauli. 24Nambu Sauli ayuwini mpangu wavi. Kilu na muhi vamlindili mumilyangu ya kuyingalila kumujini muni vahotola kumkoma. 25Lukumbi lwa kilu vawuliwa vaki vakamtola na kumhulusa pahi mugati ya lidengu livaha mufwasi ya luwumba.
Sauli iwuya ku Yelusalemu
26Sauli pahaikili ku Yelusalemu akalinga kujiwunga na vawuliwa vala. Nambu vandu voha vamyogwipi vamsadiki lepi kuvya mwene ndi mulanda wa chakaka. 27Kangi Banaba akamtola Sauli na kumpeleka kwa vamitumi, akavadandaulila kumvala Sauli cheamuwene Bambu munjila, na Bambu chealongili nayu. Mewawa avadandaulili kuvya Sauli cheahotwili kukokosa muuhotola wa Yesu changali wogohi, ku Damasko kula. 28Hinu Sauli akatama pamonga nawu, akagendelela pa Yelusalemu poha kuni ikokosa liina la Bambu changali wogohi. 29Mewawa alongili na kuhutana na Vayawudi vevilongela Chigiliki, nambu vene vapangili kumkoma. 30Valongo vala pevayuwini mpangu wenuwo, vakamtola Sauli na kuhamba nayu ku Kaisalia ndi vakamtuma ahamba ku Taso.

32Petili peavi mulugendu kila pandi mewa avahikilili vandu va Chapanga vevatamayi kumuji wa Luda. 33Kwenuko akamkolili mundu mmonga liina laki Ainea mweavi na utamu wa kupola higa, ndi agonili pa mpasa mulukumbi lwa miyaka nane. 34Petili akamjovela, “Ainea, Yesu Kilisitu akukulamisa. Yimuka, ujitandikila mpasa waku.” Bahapo Ainea akayima. 35Vandu voha va ku Luda na ku Saloni pavawene Ainea, vakamuwuyila Bambu.
36Kumuji wa Yopa kwavili na mulanda mmonga mdala liina laki Tabita, kwa Chigiliki ndi Doka mana yaki huluku. Mdala mwenuyo ahengayi mambu ga kumganisa Chapanga na kuvatangatila vangangu. 37Magono genago alwalili na kufwa.

Valipwela voha vevavi penapo vamtindili Petili vakavembeneka na kumlangisa magwanda na nyula zoha zeatengenezayi Doka pavi mumi. 40Petili avahumisi kuvala vandu voha akafugama akayupa kwa Chapanga. Kangi akahegelela payavi higa pala na kujova, “Tabita, yumuka!” Mwene akagubukula mihu, hinu peamuwene Petili ndi akayinuka na kutama. 41Petili akamkamula chiwoko, akamyinula.
