¹Kwakukhona eKesariya indoda ethile, uKorneliyu, eyinduna yekhulu yebutho elithiwa ibutho lamaNtaliyane,

²umuntu okholwayo nowesaba uNkulunkulu kanye nendlu yakhe yonke, abela abantu abampofu izipho eziningi, ekhuleka kuNkulunkulu njalonjalo.

³Wabona embonweni ngokusobala, kungathi ngehora lesishiyagalolunye lemini ingelosi kaNkulunkulu iza kuye, ithi kuye: “Korneliyu!”

⁴Embuka wethuka, wathi: Kuyini, Nkosi? Yathi kuye: “Imikhuleko yakho nokwabela kwakho abampofu izipho kukhuphukele kwaba yisikhumbuzo phambi kukaNkulunkulu.

⁵Manje thuma amadoda eJopha, ubize uSimoni othiwa futhi uPetru;

⁶yena ungenisile kaSimoni othile, umtshuki wezikhumba, ondlu yakhe ingaselwandle;

⁷Kwathi isimukile ingelosi eyayikhuluma noKorneliyu, wabiza ababili bendlu yakhe nebutho elikholwayo kulabo ababemlindile njalo;

⁸Esebalandisile zonke lezo zinto, wabathuma eJopha.

⁹Ngangomuso besahamba, besondela emzini, uPetru wakhuphukela phezu kwendlu ukuyokhuleka ngehora lesithupha;

¹⁰Walamba kakhulu, wafuna ukudla;

¹¹Wabona izulu livulekile, nesitsha esithile sehlela kuye, njengendwangu enkulu, eboshiwe emagumbini omane, yehliselwa emhlabeni;

¹²okwakukhona kuzo zonke izilwane zomhlaba ezinezinyawo ezine, nezilo zasendle, nezilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo nezinyoni zezulu.

¹³Kwasekufika ilizwi kuye, lathi: Sukuma, Petro; hlaba, udle.

¹⁴Kepha uPetru wathi: “Qha, Nkosi; ngoba kangizange ngikudle okungcolileyo lokungcolileyo.

¹⁵Izwi labuye lakhuluma kuye ngokwesibili, lathi: “Lokho uNkulunkulu akuhlambululileyo, wena ungasho ukuthi kungcolile.

¹⁶Lokho kwenzeka kathathu; isitsha senyuselwa futhi ezulwini.

¹⁷Kwathi uPetru esangabaza phakathi kwakhe ukuthi uyini lowo mbono awubonileyo, bheka, amadoda abethunyiwe evela kuKorneliyu ayebuzile indlu kaSimoni, emi ngasesangweni;

¹⁸Amemeza, abuza ukuthi uSimoni othiwa uPetru ungenisile yini khona.

¹⁹UPetru esacabanga ngombono, uMoya wathi kuye: “Bheka, amadoda amathathu ayakufuna.

²⁰Ngakho sukuma wehle, uhambe nawo, ungangabazi ngalutho, ngokuba yimina engibathumile.

²¹UPetru wehlela emadodeni abethunywe kuye evela kuKorneliyu; wathi: Bhekani, nginguye enimfunayo;

²²Base bethi: UKorneliyu induna yekhulu, indoda elungileyo nemesabayo uNkulunkulu, nodumo oluhle esizweni sonke samaJuda, uxwayiswe nguNkulunkulu ngengelosi engcwele ukuba akubize endlini yakhe, ezwe amazwi kwakho.

²³Wasebabizela phakathi, wabangenisa. Ngangomuso uPetru wahamba nabo, nabazalwane abathile baseJopha bamphelezela.

²⁴Ngangomuso bangena eKesariya. UKorneliyu wayebalindile, esebizele ndawonye izihlobo zakhe nabangane abaseduze.

²⁵Kwathi esangena uPetru, uKorneliyu wamhlangabeza, wawa phansi ezinyaweni zakhe, wakhuleka kuye.

²⁶Kodwa uPetro wamsukumisa, wathi: Sukuma; nami ngingumuntu.

²⁷Esakhuluma naye wangena, wafumana abaningi ababebuthene.

²⁸Wathi kubo: Niyazi ukuthi akuvunyelwe ukuba umuntu ongumJuda ahlangane noma eze kowesinye isizwe; kodwa uNkulunkulu ungibonisile ukuthi ngingabizi muntu ngokuthi ungcolile noma ungcolile.

²⁹Ngakho-ke ngizile kini ngingaphikanga lapho ngibiziwe; ngiyabuza-ke ukuthi ningibizeleni na?

³⁰UKorneliyu wathi: “Ezinsuku ezine ezidlule kwaze kwaba yileli hora ngizila ukudla; ngehora lesishiyagalolunye ngakhuleka endlini yami;

³¹Yathi: “Korneliyu, ukukhuleka kwakho kuzwakele, nomusa wakho womusa ukhunjulwe phambi kukaNkulunkulu.

³²Ngakho thumela eJopha, ubize uSimoni othiwa uPetro; ungenisile endlini kaSimoni umtshuki wezikhumba ngaselwandle;

³³Ngakho ngithumela masinyane kuwe; futhi wenze kahle ukuthi uze. Manje-ke sikhona sonke phambi kukaNkulunkulu ukuba sizwe konke okuyalelwe nguNkulunkulu.

³⁴UPetro wasevula umlomo wakhe, wathi: Ngeqiniso ngiyabona ukuthi uNkulunkulu kabheki ubuso.

³⁵Kodwa ezizweni zonke omesabayo lowenza ukulunga uyamukeleka kuye.

³⁶Ilizwi uNkulunkulu alithumela kubantwana bakoIsrayeli, etshumayela ukuthula ngoJesu Kristu, yena oyiNkosi yabo bonke;

³⁷Niyalazi izwi elamenyezelwa kulo lonke elaseJudiya, liqala eGalile emva kobhapathizo alushumayelayo uJohane;

³⁸Ukuthi uNkulunkulu wamgcoba kanjani uJesu waseNazaretha ngoMoya oNgcwele nangamandla, owahamba enza okuhle, ephulukisa bonke ababecindezelwe nguSathane; ngoba uNkulunkulu wayelaye.

³⁹Nathi singofakazi bezinto zonke azenzayo ezweni labaJuda naseJerusalema; abambulala, bamphanyeka esihlahleni;

⁴⁰yena uNkulunkulu wamvusa ngosuku lwesithathu, wambonakalisa obala;

⁴¹Hhayi kubantu bonke, kodwa kubofakazi abakhethwe ngaphambili nguNkulunkulu, kithina esadla, saphuza naye emva kokuvuka kwakhe kwabafileyo.

⁴²Wasiyala ukuba sishumayele kubantu, sifakaze ukuthi nguye omiswe nguNkulunkulu ukuba abe nguMahluleli wabaphilayo nabafileyo.

⁴³Abaprofethi bonke bafakaza ngaye ukuthi yilowo nalowo okholwa nguye uyakwamukela ukuthethelelwa kwezono ngegama lakhe.

⁴⁴UPetru esakhuluma lawo mazwi, uMoya oNgcwele wehlela phezu kwabo bonke ababelizwa izwi.

⁴⁵Abasokile abakholwayo ababeze noPetru bamangala, ngokuba isipho sikaMoya oNgcwele sitheliwe naphezu kwabezizwe.

⁴⁶Ngokuba babezwa bekhuluma ngezilimi, betusa uNkulunkulu. Khona uPetro waphendula wathi:

⁴⁷Ukhona yini ongala namanzi ukuba bangabhapathizwa laba abamamukele uMoya oNgcwele njengathi na?

⁴⁸Waselaya ukuthi babhabhathizwe ebizweni leNkosi. Basebemncenga ukuthi ahlale insuku ezithile.
