¹Kepha uSawulu esafutha izinsongo nokubulala abafundi beNkosi waya kumpristi omkhulu;

²wacela kuye izincwadi zokuya eDamaseku eziya emasinagogeni, ukuze kuthi uma ethola abanye baleyo Ndlela, abesilisa noma abesifazane, abalethe eJerusalema beboshiwe.

³Esahamba, wasondela eDamaseku, kwakhanya masinyane nxazonke kuye ukukhanya okuvela ezulwini.

⁴Wawa phansi, wezwa izwi lithi kuye: “Sawulu, Sawulu, ungizingelelani na?

⁵Wasesithi: Ungubani, Nkosi? INkosi yasisithi: Mina nginguJesu omzingelayo;

⁶Ethuthumela emangala wathi: “Nkosi, uthanda ukuba ngenzeni na? INkosi yasisithi kuye: Sukuma uye emzini, njalo uzatshelwa ofanele ukwenze.

⁷Lamadoda ayehamba laye ayemi engelakukhuluma, ezwa ilizwi, kodwa engaboni muntu.

⁸USawuli wasesukuma emhlabathini; esevulile amehlo akhe, akabonanga muntu, kepha bamhola ngesandla, bamyisa eDamaseku.

⁹Waba yizinsuku ezintathu engaboni, engadli, engaphuzi.

¹⁰EDamaseku kwakukhona umfundi othile ogama lakhe lingu-Ananiya; iNkosi yathi kuye embonweni: “Ananiya!” Wathi: Bheka, ngilapha, Nkosi.

¹¹INkosi yasisithi kuye: Sukuma uye emgwaqweni othiwa uQondile, ubuze endlini kaJudasi othiwa nguSawuli waseTarsu;

¹²Ubone embonweni indoda okuthiwa ngu-Ananiya ingena ibeka isandla phezu kwakhe ukuze abuye abone.

¹³UAnaniya wasephendula wathi: Nkosi, ngizwile ngabanengi balumuntu ukuthi kungakanani okubi ekwenzile kwabangcwele bakho eJerusalema;

¹⁴nalapha unegunya kubapristi abakhulu lokubopha bonke ababiza igama lakho.

¹⁵Kodwa iNkosi yathi kuye: Hamba;

¹⁶Ngokuba mina ngiyakumbonisa ukuthi kungakanani omelwe ukuhlupheka ngakho ngenxa yegama lami.

¹⁷U-Ananiya wayesehamba, wangena endlini; ebeka izandla phezu kwakhe, wathi: “Sawulu mzalwane, iNkosi ingithumile uJesu, owabonakala kuwe endleleni oze ngayo, ukuba ubuye ubuye ubuye ugcwaliswe ngoMoya oNgcwele.

¹⁸Kwawa masinyane emehlweni akhe kungathi izinkwethu, wabuye wabona, wasukuma, wabhapathizwa.

¹⁹Kwathi esekudlile waqiniswa. Khona-ke uSawulu wayenabafundi baseDamaseku izinsuku ezithile.

²⁰Masinyane washumayela emasinagogeni ngoKristu ukuthi yena uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu.

²¹Kepha bonke abamuzwayo bamangala, bathi; Lo akusiye yini owabhubhisa eJerusalema ababiza leli gama, futhi uze lapha ngale njongo, ukuze abayise kubapristi abakhulu beboshiwe?

²²Kodwa uSawuli waba namandla kakhulu, wasanganisa abaJuda abakhileyo eDamaseku eqinisa ukuthi lo unguKristu.

²³Kwathi seziphelile izinsuku eziningi, abaJuda benza icebo lokuba bambulale;

²⁴Kodwa iqhinga labo laziwa nguSawuli. Bawalinda amasango imini nobusuku ukuba bambulale.

²⁵Khona abafundi bamthatha ebusuku, bamehlisa ngogange ngeqoma.

²⁶Kwathi uSawuli esefikile eJerusalema, walinga ukuzihlanganisa labafundi, kodwa bonke babemesaba, bengakholwa ukuthi ungumfundi.

²⁷Kepha uBarnabasi wamthatha, wamyisa kubaphostoli, wabalandisa ukuthi uyibonile iNkosi endleleni, nokuthi yayikhulumile kuye, nokuthi wayeshumayele ngesibindi eDamaseku ngegama likaJesu.

²⁸Wayenabo, engena ephuma eJerusalema.

²⁹Wasekhuluma ngesibindi ngebizo leNkosi uJesu, ephikisana lamaGriki, kodwa azama ukumbulala.

³⁰Abazalwane sebekwazi bamehlisela eKesariya, bamthumela eTarsu.

³¹Khona ibandla lathola ukuphumula kulo lonke elaseJudiya, naseGalile, naseSamariya, lisakheka. Behamba ekwesabeni iNkosi, landa ngenduduzo kaMoya oNgcwele.

³²Kwathi uPetru ebhoda ezindaweni zonke, wehlela nakwabangcwele abakhe eLida.

³³Wafumana khona umuntu othiwa ngu-Eneya, owayeselele iminyaka eyisishiyagalombili efe uhlangothi.

³⁴UPetru wathi kuye: “Eneya, uJesu Kristu uyakuphilisa; Wasesukuma masinyane.

³⁵Bonke abakhileyo eLida naseSaroni bambona, baphendukela eNkosini.

³⁶EJopha kwakukhona umfundikazi othile ogama lakhe linguThabitha, okungukuthi uDorka ngokuhunyushwa;

³⁷Kwathi ngalezo zinsuku wagula, wafa; sebemgezile, bambeka ekamelweni eliphezulu.

³⁸Ngokuba iLida laliseduze neJopha, nabafundi bezwile ukuthi uPetru ukhona, bathuma kuye amadoda amabili, bemcela ukuba angalibali ukuza kubo.

³⁹UPetro wasesukuma wahamba labo. Esefikile bamyisa ekamelweni eliphezulu;

⁴⁰Kepha uPetru wabakhiphela phandle bonke, waguqa, wakhuleka; waphendukela esidunjini, wathi: Thabitha, vuka. Yasivula amehlo ayo, yathi ibona uPetro yavuka yavuka.

⁴¹Wambamba ngesandla, wamsukumisa; wayesebabiza abangcwele nabafelokazi, wamethula ephilile.

⁴²Kwase kwaziwa kuyo yonke iJopha; abaningi bakholwa yiNkosi.

⁴³Kwathi wahlala izinsuku eziningi eJopha noSimoni othile, umshuki.
