1Selufikile usuku lwePhentekoste, babendawonye bonke nganhliziyonye.
2Kwathi kungazelelwe kwezwakala umsindo uvela ezulwini njengowomoya ovunguza ngamandla, wagcwalisa indlu yonke ababehlezi kuyo.
3Kwabonakala kubo izilimi ezihlukene kungathi ezomlilo, zahlala phezu kwalowo nalowo wabo.
4Base begcwala bonke uMoya oNgcwele, baqala ukukhuluma ngezinye izilimi, njengalokho uMoya wabapha ukuphumisela.
5Kwakuhlala eJerusalema abaJuda, amadoda akholwayo, evela ezizweni zonke eziphansi kwezulu.
6Kwathi lo mdumo lo, ixuku labuthana, lasanganiseka, ngoba ngulowo lalowo wabezwa bekhuluma ngolimi lwakibo.
7Bamangala bonke, bamangala, bathi omunye komunye: “Bhekani, bonke laba abakhulumayo abasibo abaseGalile na?
8Futhi thina sizwa kanjani wonke umuntu ngolimi lwakithi esazalelwa kulo na?
9amaPhathiya, namaMede, namaElamu, nabakhileyo eMesophothamiya, naseJudiya, naseKaphadosiya, ePontu, nase-Asiya,
10iFrigiya, lePhamfiliya, eGibhithe, lezingxenyeni zeLibhiya zeKhurene, labafokazi beRoma, abaJuda lamaproselithe,
11AmaKrethe lama-Arabhiya, siyabezwa bekhuluma ngendimi zethu imisebenzi emangalisayo kaNkulunkulu.
12Bamangala bonke, bangabaza, bathi omunye komunye: “Kuyini lokhu na?
13Abanye bamklolodela bathi: Lababantu bagcwele iwayini elitsha.
14Kodwa uPetro wema labalitshumi lanye, waphakamisa ilizwi lakhe, wathi kubo: Madoda aJudiya, lani lonke elakhileyo eJerusalema, lokhu kakwaziwe kini, lilalele amazwi ami;
15Ngokuba laba abadakiwe njengokucabanga kwenu, lokhu kuseyihora lesithathu lemini.
16Kodwa lokhu kuyikho okwakhulunywa ngumprofethi uJoweli;
17“Kuyakuthi ngezinsuku zokugcina, usho uJehova, ngithulule uMoya wami phezu kwayo yonke inyama, amadodana enu namadodakazi enu ayakuprofetha, nezinsizwa zenu zibone imibono, abadala benu baphuphe amaphupho;
18Naphezu kwezinceku zami naphezu kwezincekukazi zami ngalezo zinsuku ngiyakuthulula uMoya wami; bayakuprofetha;
19Ngiyakwenza izimangaliso ezulwini phezulu, nezibonakaliso emhlabeni phansi; igazi, nomlilo, nentuthu yomusi;
20Ilanga liyakuphenduka ubumnyama, nenyanga ibe yigazi, lungakafiki lolo suku lweNkosi olukhulu noluphawulekayo;
21Kuyakuthi yilowo nalowo obiza igama leNkosi uyakusindiswa.
22Madoda akwa-Israyeli, yizwani lawa mazwi; UJesu waseNazaretha, indoda efakazelwe nguNkulunkulu phakathi kwenu ngemisebenzi yamandla, nangezimangaliso, nangezibonakaliso, uNkulunkulu azenza ngayo phakathi kwenu, njengokuba nazi nani ngokwenu;
23yena esenikelwe ngecebo elimisiweyo nangokwazi kukaNkulunkulu ngaphambili, namthatha, ngezandla zababi nambethela, nambulala;
24uNkulunkulu amvusayo, esethukululile iminjunju yokufa, ngoba kwakungenzeki ukuthi abanjwe yikho.
25Ngoba uDavida uthi ngaye: Ngayibona iNkosi phambi kwami njalo, ngoba ingakwesokunene sami, ukuze nginganyakaziswa;
26Ngakho inhliziyo yami yathokoza, lolimi lwami lwathokoza; futhi nenyama yami iyohlala ethembeni;
27Ngoba kawuyikutshiya umphefumulo wami esihogweni, njalo kawuyikunikela oNgcwele wakho ukuthi abone ukubola.
28Wangazisa izindlela zokuphila; uyakungigcwalisa ngokujabula ebusweni bakho.
29Madoda, bazalwane, ake ngikhulume kini ngokusobala ngokhokho uDavide ukuthi wafa wangcwatshwa, nethuna lakhe lisekhona kithi kuze kube namuhla.
30Ngakho-ke engumprofethi, ekwazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu wafunga kuye ngesifungo ukuthi esithelweni sokhalo lwakhe ngokwenyama uzavusa uKristu ukuthi ahlale esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi;
31Ekubona ngaphambili wakhuluma ngokuvuka kukaKristu, ukuthi umphefumulo wakhe kawutshiywanga esihogweni, lenyama yakhe kayikubonanga ukubola.
32LoJesu uNkulunkulu wamvusa, esingofakazi bakho thina sonke.
33Ngakho-ke ephakanyiselwe ngakwesokunene sikaNkulunkulu, esamukele kuYise isithembiso sikaMoya oNgcwele, ukuchithile lokhu enikubonayo nenikuzwayo manje.
34Ngoba uDavida akenyukelanga emazulwini, kodwa yena uthi: INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: Hlala ngakwesokunene sami;
35ngize ngenze izitha zakho zibe yisenabelo senyawo zakho.
36Ngakho-ke yonke indlu ka-Israyeli mayazi isibili, ukuthi uNkulunkulu umenzile iNkosi noKristu yena lowo Jesu enambethela esiphambanweni.
37Kwathi sebezwile lokho bahlabeka enhliziyweni, bathi kuPetro lakwabanye abaphostoli: Madoda, bazalwane, sizakwenzani?
38UPetru wayesethi kubo: “Phendukani, yilowo nalowo abhapathizwe egameni likaJesu Kristu kukho ukuthethelelwa kwezono, khona niyakwamukeliswa isiphiwo sikaMoya oNgcwele.
39Ngokuba isithembiso ngesenu, nesabantwana benu, nesabo bonke abakude, bonke iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu eyakubabiza.
40Wafakaza nangamanye amazwi amaningi, wabayala wathi: “Zisindiseni kulesi sizukulwane esiphambeneyo.
41Khona abalamukele izwi lakhe ngokuthokoza babhapathizwa, kwenezelwa ngalona lolosuku abantu abangaba yizinkulungwane ezintathu.
42Babephikelela emfundisweni yabaphostoli, nasekuhlanganyeleni, nasekuhlephuleni isinkwa, nasemithandazweni.
43Ukwesaba kwehlela wonke umuntu; kwenzeka izimangaliso eziningi nezibonakaliso ngabaphostoli.
44Bonke abakholwayo babendawonye, bahlanganyela zonke izinto;
45bathengisa ngempahla yabo lempahla zabo, babela bonke njengokuswela kwawo wonke.
46Imihla ngemihla baqinisela nganhliziyonye ethempelini, bahlephula isinkwa endlini ngendlu, badla ukudla kwabo ngentokozo nangobumhlophe benhliziyo.
47Bemdumisa uNkulunkulu, bethandeka kubantu bonke. INkosi yenezela ebandleni imihla ngemihla abasindiswayo.
