1Ngaleso sikhathi uHerode inkosi welula izandla ukuba ahluphe abathile bebandla.
2Wabulala uJakobe umfowabo kaJohane ngenkemba.
3Kwathi ebona ukuthi lokho kuwathokozisa amaJuda, waqhubeka wabamba loPetro. (Khona-ke kwakuyizinsuku zesinkwa esingenamvubelo.)
4Esembambile, wamfaka etilongweni, wamnikela ekamu lamabutho amane, ukuba amlinde; ehlose ukumkhuphela ebantwini emva kwePhasika.
5Ngakho uPetru wagcinwa etilongweni, kepha ibandla lamkhulekela kuNkulunkulu ngokungaphezi.
6Kwathi uHerode esezomkhipha, ngalobo busuku uPetru wayelele phakathi kwamasosha amabili, eboshwe ngamaketanga amabili, nabalindi phambi komnyango belinda itilongo.
7Bheka, ingelosi yeNkosi yeza phezu kwakhe, nokukhanya kwakhanya etilongweni, yamshaya uPetru ohlangothini, yamvusa, yathi: “Vuka masinyane. Futhi amaketanga akhe awela ezandleni zakhe.
8Ingilosi yasisithi kuye: Bhinca, ubophe amanyathela akho. Wenza kanjalo. Wasesithi kuye: Gqoka isembatho sakho, ungilandele.
9Wasephuma, wamlandela; futhi wayengazi ukuthi kuyiqiniso okwenziwa yingelosi; kodwa wacabanga ukuthi ubona umbono.
10Sebedlule abalindi bokuqala nabesibili, bafika esangweni lensimbi eliya emzini; owabavulela ngokwakhe; baphuma, badlula umgwaqo munye; ingilosi yahle yasuka kuye.
11Kwathi uPetru esesangulukile wathi: “Manje sengiyazi ngeqiniso ukuthi iNkosi ithumile ingelosi yayo, yangikhulula esandleni sikaHerode nakukho konke abantu abaJuda ababekulindele.
12Esekubonile lokho, wafika endlini kaMariya unina kaJohane othiwa uMarku; lapho ababebuthene khona abanengi bekhuleka.
13Kwathi uPetro engqongqotha emnyango wesango, intombazana yeza ukulalela, ibizo layo linguRoda.
14Kuthe selilazi izwi likaPetru, alivulanga isango ngenxa yokuthokoza, kodwa wagijima wabika ukuthi uPetru wayemi phambi kwesango.
15Bathi kuye: “Uyahlanya. Kodwa wayelokhu egcizelela ukuthi kunjalo. Base bethi: “Yingelosi yakhe.”
16Kodwa uPetru waqhubeka engqongqoza; sebevule umnyango bambona, bamangala.
17Kodwa wabaqhweba ngesandla ukuthi bathule, wabalandisela ukuthi iNkosi imkhuphe njani entolongweni. Wathi: “Bikelani uJakobe nakubazalwane lokho.” Wasuka, waya kwenye indawo.
18Kwathi sekusile, kwaba khona isiphithiphithi esingesincane phakathi kwamabutho kokuthi uPetro wehlelwe yini.
19Kwathi uHerode emfuna engamtholi, waphenya abalindi, wayala ukuba babulawe. Wehla eJudiya, waya eKesariya, wahlala khona.
20Kepha uHerode wayebathukuthelele abaseTire nabaseSidoni; ngoba ilizwe labo londliwa yilizwe lenkosi.
21Kwathi ngosuku olumisiweyo uHerode wembatha ingubo yobukhosi, wahlala esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi, wakhuluma kubo.
22Abantu basebememeza besithi: Yizwi likaNkulunkulu, akusilo elomuntu.
23Kwathi masinyane ingelosi yeNkosi yamshaya, ngokuba enganikanga uNkulunkulu udumo; wadliwa yizimpethu, waphuma.
24Kodwa izwi likaNkulunkulu lakhula, landa.
25OBarnaba noSawulu babuya eJerusalema sebeqedile inkonzo yabo, bahamba noJohane othiwa uMarku.
