1Kwakukhona e-Antiyokiya ebandleni abaprofethi nabafundisi; njengoBarnaba, noSimeyoni othiwa uNigeri, noLukiyu waseKhurene, noManayeni owayondliwe kanye noHerode umtetrarki, noSawulu.
2Kwathi bekhonza iNkosi, bezila ukudla, uMoya oNgcwele wathi: Ngahlukaniseleni oBarnaba noSawulu emsebenzini engibabizele wona.
3Sebezila ukudla bakhuleka, babeka izandla phezu kwabo, babamukisa.
4Bona-ke bethunywe nguMoya oNgcwele behlela eSelukiya; basuka lapho ngomkhumbi baya eKhupro.
5Sebefikile eSalami batshumayela ilizwi likaNkulunkulu emasinagogeni abaJuda, njalo babe loJohane wabancedisa.
6Sebedabule isihlenge baze bafika ePhafosi, bafumana indoda ethile eyisanusi, umprofethi wamanga, umJuda, ogama lakhe linguBarjesu.
7Owayenombusi wezwe, uSergiyu Pawulu, indoda ehlakaniphileyo; owabiza uBarnabasi loSawuli, wafisa ukuzwa ilizwi likaNkulunkulu.
8Kodwa uElimasi isanusi (ngokuba linjalo ibizo lakhe ngokuhunyushwa) wamelana labo, efuna ukuphambukisa umbusi ekholweni.
9Khona uSawulu, othiwa futhi uPawulu, egcwele uMoya oNgcwele, wamgqolozela.
10Wathi: “Wena ogcwele ubuqili bonke nobubi bonke, ndodana kaSathane, sitha sokulunga konke, awuyikuyeka ukuphendukezela izindlela eziqondileyo zeNkosi na?
11Manje bheka, isandla seNkosi siphezu kwakho, uyakuba yimpumputhe, ungaliboni ilanga isikhathi. Kwahle kwehlelwa yinkungu nobumnyama phezu kwakhe; wasezulazula efuna abangamhola ngesandla.
12Khona umbusi ebona okwenzekileyo wakholwa, emangazwe isifundiso seNkosi.
13Kwathi uPawuli labakanye laye besuka ePafosi, bafika ePerga esePhamfiliya; kodwa uJohane wasuka kubo wabuyela eJerusalema.
14Kepha bona sebemukile ePherge bafika e-Antiyokiya yasePhisidiya, bangena esinagogeni ngosuku lwesabatha, bahlala phansi.
15Kwathi sekufundiwe umlayo labaprofethi, abaphathi besinagoge bathumela kubo, besithi: Madoda, bazalwane, uba lilolizwi lokukhuthaza abantu, khulumani.
16Wayesesukuma uPawulu, waqhweba ngesandla, wathi: “Madoda akwa-Israyeli, nani nesaba uNkulunkulu, lalelani.
17UNkulunkulu walesi sizwe sakwa-Israyeli wakhetha okhokho bethu, wabaphakamisa abantu lapho bengabafokazi ezweni laseGibhithe, futhi ngengalo ephakemeyo wabakhipha kulo.
18Kwathi cishe iminyaka engamashumi amane wabekezelela imikhuba yabo ehlane.
19Esechithile izizwe eziyisikhombisa elizweni leKhanani, wababela ilizwe labo ngenkatho.
20Emva kwalokho wabanika abahluleli isikhathi esingangeminyaka engamakhulu amane namashumi ayisihlanu, kwaze kwafika uSamuweli umprofethi.
21Emva kwalokho bacela inkosi; uNkulunkulu wabanika uSawule indodana kaKishi, indoda yesizwe sakwaBenjamini, iminyaka engamashumi amane.
22Esemkhiphile wabavusela uDavida abe yinkosi yabo; wafakaza ngaye, wathi: “Ngimfumene uDavide indodana kaJese, indoda yenhliziyo yami, eyakufeza yonke intando yami.
23Enzalweni yakhe uNkulunkulu uvusele u-Israyeli uMsindisi uJesu, ngokwesithembiso sakhe.
24Kwathi engakafiki uJohane etshumayele kuqala kubo bonke abantu bakoIsrayeli umbhabhathizo wokuphenduka.
25Kwathi uJohane eseqedile ukuhamba kwakhe, wathi: Nithi ngingubani na? Angiyena. Kodwa bhekani, uyeza emva kwami, engingafanele ukuthukulula izicathulo zakhe ezinyaweni zakhe.
26Madoda, bazalwane, bantwana bozalo lukaAbrahama, labo phakathi kwenu abamesabayo uNkulunkulu, ilizwi lale nsindiso lithunyelwe kini.
27Ngokuba abakhileyo eJerusalema nababusi babo, lokhu bengamazi, noma amazwi abaprofethi afundwa amasabatha ngamasabatha, bawagcwalisile ngokumlahla.
28Lanxa bengatholi cala lokufa kuye, bacela kuPilatu ukuthi abulawe.
29Sebefeze konke okwakulotshiwe ngaye, bamehlisa esihlahleni, bambeka ethuneni.
30Kodwa uNkulunkulu wamvusa kwabafileyo;
31Wabonwa izinsuku eziningi yilabo ababekhuphukele naye eJerusalema besuka eGalile, abangabofakazi bakhe kubantu.
32Lathi sitshumayela izindaba ezinhle kini, ukuthi isithembiso esenziwa kubokhokho.
33UNkulunkulu usigcwalisile kithina bantwana babo ngokumvusa uJesu; njengoba kulotshiwe futhi ehubweni lesibili ukuthi: Wena uyiNdodana yami, namuhla ngikuzele.
34Maqondana nokuthi wamvusa kwabafileyo, angasayikubuyela ekonakaleni, washo kanje: Ngizakuninika umusa oqinisekileyo kaDavide.
35Ngakho nakwelinye ihubo uthi: Kawuyikuvuma oNgcwele wakho abone ukubola.
36Ngoba uDavida esekhonze esizukulwaneni sakhe ngentando kaNkulunkulu, walala ubuthongo, wabekwa koyise, wabona ukubola;
37Kodwa lowo uNkulunkulu amvusayo kakubonanga ukubola.
38Ngakho makwazeke kini, madoda bazalwane, ukuthi ngalowo kumenyezelwa kini ukuthethelelwa kwezono;
39futhi ngaye bonke abakholwayo bayalungisiswa kukho konke obungelungisiswe kukho ngomlayo kaMozisi.
40Ngakho qaphelani, funa nehlele okwakhulunywa ngakho kubaprofethi;
41Bhekani, nina zideleli, nimangale, nibhubhe, ngokuba mina ngenza umsebenzi ezinsukwini zenu, umsebenzi eningayikukholwa, noma umuntu enitshela wona.
42Kwathi sebephumile esinagogeni, abezizwe bacela ukuthi lawo mazwi akhulunywe kubo ngesabatha elizayo.
43Kwathi sekuhlakazekile umhlangano, abaningi kubaJuda namaproselite akholwayo balandela oPawulu noBarnaba, okwathi bekhuluma kubo, babancenga ukuba bahlale emuseni kaNkulunkulu.
44Ngesabatha elilandelayo kwabuthana cishe umuzi wonke ukuzwa izwi likaNkulunkulu.
45Kodwa abaJuda bebona izixuku bagcwala umona, baphikisana lezinto ezazikhulunywa nguPawuli, bephikisa lokuthuka.
46Khona oPawulu noBarnaba bakhuluma isibindi, bathi: “Bekufanele ukuba izwi likaNkulunkulu likhulunywe kini kuqala;
47Ngokuba iNkosi yasiyala kanjalo, ithi: “Ngikubekile ukuba ube ngukukhanya kwabezizwe, ube yinsindiso kuze kube semikhawulweni yomhlaba.
48Kwathi abezizwe bekuzwa lokho bathokoza, balidumisa izwi leNkosi, bakholwa bonke ababemiselwe ukuphila okuphakade.
49Izwi leNkosi lashunyayelwa kuso sonke isifunda.
50Kodwa abaJuda bavusa abesifazane abakhonzayo nabahloniphekayo nezikhulu zomuzi, bavusela oPawulu noBarnaba ukuzingelwa, babaxosha emikhawulweni yabo.
51Kodwa babathintithela uthuli lwezinyawo zabo, bafika e-Ikoniyu.
52Kepha abafundi bagcwala intokozo nangoMoya oNgcwele.
