Lapho ngise nabo ezweni , ngabagcina egameni lakho labo ongiphe bona , ngabalonda; akakho kubo owalahleka, kuphela indodana yokulahlwa, ukuba kugcwaliseke umbhalo.

Ngiyazingcwelisa ngenxa yabo ukuba bangcweliswe nabo ngeqiniso.

ukuba bonke babe munye , njengalokhu wena Baba ukimi , nami ngikuwe, ukuba nabo babe kithina, ukuze izwe likholwe ukuthi wena ungithumile.

Ukwesaba okukhulu kwalehlela ibandla lonke nabo bonke abezwa lokho. Izimangaliso zabaphostoli

Kepha kwabanye akwabakho owayenesibindi sokuzihlanganisa nabo, kepha abantu babebazisa kakhulu;

Kwase kusuka umpristi om khulu nabo bonke ababe naye abangabehlelo labaSadusi, bagcwala umhawu,

Ngokuba ngaphambi kwalezi zinsuku kwasuka uThewuda ezishaya omkhulu; kwanamathela kuye amadoda angathi amakhulu amane; wabulawa yena nabo bonke abamlalelayo, bachitheka, baphela.

Emva kwalowo kwasuka uJuda waseGalile ezinsukwini zokubhalwa ; wahlubukisa abantu ukuba bamlandele ; nalowo wabhubha , nabo bonke abamlalelayo bahlakazeka.

Kepha uSawulu wayevumelene nabo ngokubulawa kwakhe . Ngalolo su ku kwavela ukuzingelwa okukhulu kwebandla laseJerusalema ; bahlakazeka bonke emazweni aseJudiya naseSamariya; kwasala abaphostoli bodwa.

Wayesesuka uPetru , wahamba nabo . Esefikile, bamyisa ekamelweni eliphezulu; abafelokazi bonke beza kuye bekhala , bembonisa izambatho nezingubo abezenzile uDorka esenabo.

sukuma-ke, wehle, uhambe nabo, ungangabazi ngalutho, ngokuba yimina engibathumileyo. Ukufika kukaPetru endlini kaKorneliyu

Wayesebabiza, wabangenisa. Ngangomuso wasuka wahamba nabo, abathile babazalwane baseJopha bamphelekezela.

bathi: Ungene kubantu abangasokile, wadla nabo.

UMoya wayesethi kimi angihambe nabo ngingangabazi ngalutho . Bangiphelekezela labo bazalwane abayisithupha, saya sangena endlini yaleyo ndoda.

Kodwa u -Eluma, isanusi, ngokuba linjalo igama lakhe ngokuhunyushwa , wamelana nabo, wafuna ukuphambukisa umbusi ekukholweni.

UPawulu nababe naye bamuka ePhafu ngomkhumbi, bafika ePherge lasePhamfiliya; kepha uJohane wahlukana nabo, wabuyela eJerusalema.

Khona sebehlakazekile abesinagoge , abaningi babaJuda namaproselite aqotho balandela oPawulu noBarnaba abakhuluma nabo , bebancenga ukuba bahlale emseni kaNkulunkulu.

futhi akahlukanisanga ngalutho phakathi kwethu nabo , ehlambulula izinhliziyo zabo ngokukholwa.

Kepha siyakholwa ukuthi sisindiswa ngomusa weNkosi uJesu ngandlelanye nabo.

OJuda noSila, njengokuba nabo bengabaprofethi, babaduduza abazalwane ngamazwi amaningi, babaqinisa.

Kepha uPawulu wathi akufanele ukuba bahambe naye owabashiya ePhamfiliya, akaze aya nabo emsebenzini.

Base bemshumayeza izwi likaNkulunkulu , yena nabo bonke ababesendlini yakhe.

Wabathatha ngaso leso sikhathi sasebusuku , wabageza imivimbo , wabhapathizwa khona lapho, yena nabo bonke abakhe,

Kepha uPawulu njengokwenza kwakhe wangena kubo , waphendulana nabo amasabatha amathathu, ethathela emibhalweni,

Kepha amadoda athile anamathela kuye , akholwa; phakathi kwawo kwakukhona noDiyonisiyu wase -Areyophagu, nowesifazane ogama lakhe linguDamari, nabanye kanye nabo.

lokhu wayemsebenzi munye nabo , wahlala nabo , basebenza. Ngokuba umsebenzi wabo kwakungukuthunga amatende.

esenyukile wahlephula isinkwa , wadla, wakhuluma nabo isikhathi eside kwaze kwasa; wayesemuka-ke.

Eseshilo lokho waguqa phansi kanye nabo bonke, wakhuleka.

Thina sesiqedile ukuhamba ngomkhumbi sisuka eTire , safika ePetolemayi , sabingelela abazalwane, sahlala nabo usuku lwaba lunye.

nginethemba kuNkulunkulu abalibheka nabo uqobo lokuthi kuyakuba khona ukuvuka kwabafileyo, okwabalungile nokwabangalungile.

Kwathi esehlale nabo izinsuku ezingaphezu kweziyisishiyagalombili nokuba eziyishumi, wehlela eKesariya ; ngangomuso wahlala esihlalweni sokwahlulela, wayala ukuba uPawulu alethwe.

Inkosi yayisisukuma nombusi noBernike kanye nababehlezi nabo;

Base bema isibindi bonke, badla nabo.

Safumana khona abazalwane , sancengwa ukuba sihlale nabo izinsuku eziyisikhombisa; kanjalo safika eRoma.

Yilesi isivumelwano sami nabo, lapho ngisusa izono zabo.

kanjalo nalaba kalokhu abalalelanga, ukuze ngomusa enenzelwe wona nabo bahawukelwe manje.

Kwaba kuhle, ngokuba nembala banecala kubo ; ngokuba uma abezizwe behlanganyela nabo ezintweni zabo zokomoya , banecala futhi lokubakhonza ngezokwenyama.

Ngiyanincenga, bazalwane, ukuba niqaphele ababanga ukwahlukana nokukhubekisa, bephambene nesifundiso enafundiswa sona nina , nahlukane nabo;

kulo ibandla likaNkulunkulu eliseKorinte , kubo abangcwelisiwe kuKristu Jesu, ababiziweyo abangcwele , kanye nabo bonke abakhuleka egameni leNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu ezindaweni zonke, eyabo neyethu:

Njengokuba enjalo owayengowenhlabathi , banjalo nalabo abangabenhlabathi; nanjengokuba enjalo ongowasezulwini , banjalo nabo abangabasezulwini.

ukuba nibathobele abanjalo nabo bonke abasebenzisana nabo bekhandleka.

Ngakho-ke phumani phakathi kwabo , nahlukane nabo , isho iNkosi ; ningathinti okungcolileyo; khona ngiyakunamukela,

Kepha sithumele kanye nabo umzalwane wethu esimfumene kaningi ekhuthele ezintweni eziningi , kepha manje ukhuthele kakhulu ngenxa yokunethemba kwakhe okukhulu.

lokhu ngokuvivinyeka kwale nkonzo badumisa uNkulunkulu ngenxa yokulalela kokuvuma kwenu ivange li likaKristu nangenxa yobuqotho bobudlelwane benu nabo, yebo, nabo bonke,

Ngakho-ke ningabi ngabahlanganyela nabo.

Ngokuba noma wabethelwa esiphambanweni ngobuthakathaka , nokho uyaphila ngamandl a kaNkulunkulu . Ngokuba nathi sibuthakathaka kuye , kodwa sizakuphila kanye naye ngamandla kaNkulunkulu ngakini. UPawulu ululeka ukuba nabo bazihlole, engakafiki

Ngokuba bengakafiki abanye ababevela kuJakobe , wayedla nabezizwe ; kepha kuthe ukuba kufike bona , wamonyuka, wazahlukanisa nabo , esaba abokusoka.

Ngokuba ngisho bona abasokayo nabo kabawugcini umthetho , kodwa bathanda ukuba nisoke, ukuze bazibonge ngenyama yenu.

Umusa mawube nabo bonke abathanda iNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu ngokunganqamukiyo.

Ngokuba ngiyathanda ukuba nazi ukuthi kukhulu kangaka nani ukulwa enginakho ngenxa yenu nabaseLawodikeya nabo bonke abangabonanga ubuso bami ngamehlo,

khona thina , esisekhona sisasele siyakuhlwithwa kanye nabo emafwini , sihlangabeze iNkosi emoyeni; kanjalo-ke siyakuba nayo iNkosi njalo.

amakhosi nabo bonke abakhulu , ukuze sihlale kahle nangokuthula, ngokumesaba uNkulunkulu nangesizotha esipheleleyo.

Ngalokho ngiyakhuthazela kukho konke ngenxa yabakhethiweyo , ukuze nabo bazuze insindiso ekuKristu Jesu, kanye nenkazimulo yaphakade.

Shesha ufike, kungakangeni ubusika. Bakhonza kuwe o -Evubulu, noPhude, noLinu, noKlawudiya, nabo bonke abazalwane.

uNkulunkulu futhi ef akaza kanye nabo ngezibonakaliso , nangezimangaliso, nangemisebenzi yamandla eyizinhlobo nhlobo , nangokwabelwa kukaMoya oNgcwele ngokwentando yakhe. UKristu waba mncane kunezingelosi esasebenza umsebenzi wensindiso emhlabeni

Yilesi sivumelwano engizakusenza nabo , emva kwalezo zinsuku , isho iNkosi: Ngiyakufaka imithetho yami ezinhliziyweni zabo , ngiyilobe engqondweni yabo,

Zamelani ukuthula nabo bonke kanye nokungcweliswa , ongenakho angeyibone iNkosi;

Bakhumbuleni ababoshiweyo kungathi niboshiwe kanye nabo, nabaphethwe kabi, njengalokhu nani nisemzimbeni.

Kanjalo, madoda, hlalani nabo ngokokwazi , njengalokhu owesifazane eyisitsha esibuthakatha ka, nibanike udumo , lokhu beyizindlalifa zomusa wokuphila kanye nani, ukuze imikhuleko yenu ingathiywa. Ukuhamba ngokubekezela ekuhluphekeni

Kepha laba behlambalaza , benjengezidalwa ezingenangqondo , ngemvelo zizalelwe ukubanjwa nokubhujiswa, nabo bazakubhujiswa ekubhujisweni kwazo, behlambalaza abangakwaziyo,

Bathandekayo, masithandane, ngokuba uthando luvela kuNkulunkulu, nabo bonke abathandayo bazelwe nguNkulunkulu, bayamazi uNkulunkulu.

Ilunga kuyo inkosikazi ekhethiweyo nabantwana bayo , engibathanda ngeqiniso, kungeyimi ngedwa kodwa nabo bonke abalaziyo iqiniso,

Ngalokho-ke thina sifanele ukubamukela abanjalo , ukuze sibe yizisebenzi zeqiniso kanye nabo. Isibonelo esihle nesibi

Ubusisiwe ofundayo nabo abawezwayo amazwi alesi siprofetho , bagcine okulotshiweyo kuso, ngokuba isikhathi siseduze. UJohane uyabingelela amabandla ayisikhombisa

Bhekani, uyeza namafu, namehlo onke ayakumbona , nabo abamgwazayo, nezizwe zonke zomhlaba ziyakulila ngaye. Yebo, Amen.

Ngakho-ke phenduka ; uma kungenjalo , ngiyeza kuwe masinyane , ngiyakulwa nabo ngenkemba yomlomo wami.

Nalapho selivula uphawu lwesihlanu , ngabona phansi kwe -altare imiphefumulo yababebulewe ngenxa yezwi likaNkulunkulu nangenxa yobufakazi ababe nabo.

Base benikwa , kwaba yilowo nalowo ingubo ende emhlophe , kwashiwo kubo ukuba baphumule isikhashana, baze baphelele abayizinceku kanye nabo nabazalwane babo ababezakubulawa njengabo.

Eyokuqala yayisibetha; kwase kuba khona isichotho nomlilo kuxutshaniswe negazi, kwaphonswa emhlabeni ; okwesithathu komhlaba kwasha kwaqothuka, nokwesithathu kwemithi kwasha kwaqothuka , nabo bonke utshani obuluhlaza basha baqothuka.

Kuyakuthi sebebuqedile ubufakazi babo, isilo esiphuma kwalasha siyakulwa nabo, sibanqobe, sibabulale.

Nabo uqobo lwabo bamnqoba ngegazi leWundlu nangezwi lobufakazi babo, futhi abakuthandanga ukuphila kwabo kwaze kwaba sekufeni.

Savula umlomo waso ukuhlambalaza uNkulunkulu , ukuhlambalaza igama lakhe netabernakele lakhe, nabo abahlezi ezulwini.

Amandla onke esilo sokuqala siyawenza phambi kwaso . Siyenza u kuba umhlaba nabo bonke abakhileyo kuwo bakhuleke kuso isilo sokuqala esingozi yaso yelashwa.

Ngokuba ngehora linye nje ingcebo engaka ichithekile . Nabashayeli bonke bemikhumbi, nabo bonke abaya nomaphi ngomkhumb i, namatilosi, nabo bonke abasebenza elwandle bemela kude,

Ngase ngizwa izwi elikhulu livela esihlalweni sobukhosi , lithi: Bheka, itabernakele likaNkulunkulu likubantu ; uyakuhlala nabo , babe ngabantu bakhe, yena uNkulunkulu abe nabo,

Kepha amagwala, nabangakholwayo, nabanengekayo, nababulali, nezifebe, nabathakathi, nabakhonza izithombe, nabo bonke abaqamba amanga, isabelo sabo siyakuba sechibini elivutha umlilo nesibabule, okungukufa kwesibili. Inkazimulo yeJerusalema lasezulwini

Ngaphandle kukhona izinja , nabathakathi, nezifebe, nababulali, nabakhonza izithombe, nabo bonke abathanda nabenza amanga.
