1Madoda, bazalwana, nani bobawo, kuphulaphuleni ukuziphendulela kwam kuni ngoku.

2Bakuva ke ukuba udanduluka ngesiHebhere kubo, bazola okunye.

3Mna okunene ndingumntu ongumYuda, owazalelwa eTarso, umzi waseKiliki; ukanti ndakhulela kulo mzi ezinyaweni zikaGamaliyeli, ndafundiswa ngomyalelo ogqibeleleyo wemithetho yooyihlo, ndinenzondelelo kuThixo, njengokuba ninjalo nina nonke namhlanje.

4Ndayitshutshisa le Ndlela, ndada ndesa ekufeni, ndibopha, ndifaka ezintolongweni amadoda kwanabafazi;

5njengokuba nombingeleli omkhulu endingqinela, nayo yonke intlanganiso yamadoda amakhulu; endamkela kubo iincwadi zokuya kubazalwana, ndaya eDamasko, ndiya kuzisa ababekhona bebotshiwe eYerusalem, ukuze babethwe.

6Ke kaloku kwathi, ndihamba, ndisondela eDamasko, malunga emini enkulu, ngesiquphe ndabanekelwa ngeenxa zonke lukhanyiselo olukhulu luphuma ezulwini.

7Ndawa emhlabeni, ndeva ilizwi lisithi kum, Sawule, Sawule, unditshutshiselani na?

8Ndaphendula ke mna ndathi, Ungubani na, Nkosi? Yathi kum, Mna ndinguYesu waseNazarete, omtshutshisayo wena.

9Bona ke ababenam balubona okunene ukhanyiselo olo, besuka boyika; ke abalivanga ilizwi lalowo wayethetha nam.

10Ndathi ke, Ndithini na, Nkosi? Yathi ke iNkosi kum, Vuka, uye eDamasko; woxelelwa khona ngazo zonke izinto ozimiselweyo ukuba uzenze.

11Ndakuba ke ndingenakondela ngenxa yobuqaqawuli bolo lukhanyiselo, ndarholwa ngesandla ngabo babenam, ndafika eDamasko.

12Ke kaloku, uHananiya uthile, indoda emhlonelayo uThixo ngokomthetho, engqinelwe kakuhle ngawo onke amaYuda ami khona,

13weza kum, wema, wathi kum, Sawule, mzalwana, buya ubone. Ndaza ndajonga kuye kwangelo lixa.

14Uthe ke yena, uThixo woobawo bethu ukumisile wena ukuba ukwazi ukuthanda kwakhe, umbone lowo uliLungisa, uve ilizwi eliphuma emlonyeni wakhe;

15ngokuba uya kuba lingqina lakhe kubo bonke abantu, lezinto ozibonileyo nozivileyo.

16Ngoku ke ulibelelani na? Suk’ ume, ubhaptizwe, uhlambulule izono zakho, unqula igama leNkosi.

17Ke kaloku kwathi, ndakuba ndibuyele eYerusalem, ndakubon’ ukuba ndiyathandaza etempileni, ndaba sethongweni;

18Ndayibona isithi kum, Khawuleza, uphume kamsinya eYerusalem; ngokuba bengayi kubamkela ubungqina bakho ngam.

19Ndathi ke mna, Nkosi, bayazi kakuhle bona ukuba mna ndandibafaka entolongweni, ndibatyabula kuzo zonke izindlu zesikhungu abo bakholwayo kuwe;

20naxeshikweni laphalazwayo igazi likaStefano, ingqina lakho, ndaye ndimi kufuphi nam, ndikuthakazela ukusikwa kwakhe, ndizigcinile iingubo zabo babemsika.

21Yathi kum, Hamba; ngokuba mna ndiya kukuthuma kude kwiintlanga.

22Bamphulaphula ke, wada wafika kwelo lizwi, baza baphakamisa amazwi abo besithi, Msuseni emhlabeni umntu onje; kuba akufanelekile ukuba adle ubomi.

23Ke kaloku, bakubon’ ukuba bayakhala, bezilahla iingubo zabo, bephosa uthuli phezulu;

24Wathi umthetheli-waka, makangeniswe enqabeni yomkhosi; wathi makancinwe ngekatsi; ukuze azi ukuba kungani na ukuba benjenje ukunkqangaza ngaye.

25Ke kaloku, xa bamolulayo ngeentambo, wathi uPawulos kumthetheli-khulu obemi khona, Kuvumelekile na, ukuba nimtyakatye umntu ongumRoma, engagwetywanga nokugwetywa?

26Evile ke umthetheli-khulu, waya wabika kumthetheli-waka, esithi, Yilumkele into oza kuyenza; kuba lo mntu ungumRoma.

27Weza ke umthetheli-waka wathi kuye, Ndixelele, ungumRoma na? Wathi, Ewe.

28Waphendula umthetheli-waka wathi, Le nkululeko ndayizuza ngexabiso elikhulu. Wathi ke uPawulos, Mna ndizelwe ndizelwe.

29Basuka kuye kwaoko ngoko abo babeza kumncina; woyika ke nomthetheli-waka akuqonda ukuba ungumRoma, nangenxa yokuba ebembophile.

30Ke kaloku ngengomso, enga angayazi inyaniso yento amangalelwe ngayo ngamaYuda, wamkhulula ezintanjeni, wathi, mabeze ababingeleli abakhulu, nayo yonke intlanganiso yabo yamatyala; waza wamhlisa uPawulos, wammisa phambi kwabo.
