5 Lelo, umuntu umo, uo ishina lyakwe ni Anania, pamo no mukashi wakwe Safira, bashitishe ibala lyabo 2 no kufisapo indalama shimo, umukashi na o alishibe, kabili atweleko fye shimo no kushibika ku makasa ya batumwa.+ 3 Lelo Petro atile: “Anania, cinshi ico Satana+ atalamikile umutima obe ku kubepa+ umupashi+ wa mushilo no kufisapo indalama she bala ilyo washitishe? 4 Ilyo wali ne bala, bushe talyali lyobe, kabili ilyo walishitishe, bushe indalama tashali shobe? Cinshi wapangiile ukucita ica musango yu mu mutima obe? Te bantu ubepele+ iyo, ubepele Lesa.”+ 5 Pa kumfwa aya mashiwi Anania awile pa nshi no kuleka umweo.+ Kabili bonse abaumfwileko baiketwe umwenso+ uukalamba. 6 E fyo abalumendo baimine, bamupomba mu nsalu,+ no kumutwala ku nse bayamushiika.
7 Nomba ilyo papita nalimo ama-awala yatatu umukashi wakwe na o aingila, ninshi teshibe ne ficitike. 8 Petro e pa kumwipusha ati: “Njebako, bushe e ndalama fye ishi shine imwe babili mwashitishemo ibala?” Na o ati: “Ee, e isho shine.” 9 E lyo Petro amweba ati: “Nga cinshi ico imwe babili mwaumfwanine ukwesha+ umupashi wa kwa Yehova? Mona! Amakasa ya bashiikile umulume obe yali pa mwinshi, na iwe wine balakutwala ku nse.” 10 Apo pene fye awa pa nshi mupepi na makasa ya kwa Petro no kuleka umweo.+ Ilyo abalumendo baingile basangile nafwa, kabili bamutwele ku nse no kumushiika mupepi no mulume. 11 Awe aba mu cilonganino bonse na bonse abaumfwileko baiketwe umwenso uukalamba.
12 Kabili, abatumwa balecita ifishibilo ifingi ne fipesha amano mu bantu;+ kabili bonse bali mu lukungu lwa kwa Solomone+ no mutima umo. 13 Na kuba, takwali nangu umo uwapamine ukuilunda kuli bena;+ na lyo line, abantu balebacindika.+ 14 Awe, abaume na banakashi abengi nga nshi abalesumina muli Shikulu balelundwako fye;+ 15 ica kuti abantu baletwala abalwele mu misebo iikalamba no kubabika pa misengele na pa matanda, pa kuti Petro nga alepita, kusuka icinshingwa cakwe fye capita pali bamo.+ 16 Na kabili, abantu abengi ukufuma mu misumba yashinguluka Yerusalemu baleisa, baleleta abalwele na bonse abalecushiwa ku mipashi yakowela, kabili bonse baleundapwa.
17 Awe pa mulandu wa mufimbila,+ shimapepo mukalamba na bonse abali nankwe, aba mu mipepele ya baSaduke, baliimine, 18 kabili baikete abatumwa no kubabika mu cifungo+ ca bantu bonse. 19 Lelo ubushiku malaika+ wa kwa Yehova aiswile ifiibi fya cifungo no kubafumya,+ e lyo abeba ati: 20 “Kabiyeni, keminineni mwi tempele, twalilileni ukweba abantu fyonse pali ubu bumi.”+ 21 Ilyo baumfwile ifi, baingile mwi tempele ku macaca no kutendeka ukusambilisha.
Nomba ilyo shimapepo mukalamba na bonse abali nankwe baishile, balongenye aba mu cilye ca Sanhedrini ne bumba lyonse ilya bakalamba mu bena Israele,+ kabili batumine aba kuya ku cifungo no kubaleta. 22 Lelo ilyo abalinshi bafikile kulya tababasangile mu cifungo. E ico balibwelele no kushimika, 23 abati: “Twacisanga icifungo nacikomwa bwino bwino na balinshi nabeminina pa minshi, lelo cilya twaisulako twasanga tamuli nangu umo.” 24 Awe, ilyo umukalamba wa bakalinda ba pe tempele ne ntungulushi sha bashimapepo baumfwile ifi, balipeshiwe amano pali ifi fintu ne fyali no kutumbukamo.+ 25 Lelo umuntu umo aishile no kubeba, ati: “Moneni! Abaume mwabikile mu cifungo bali mwi tempele, nabeminina balesambilisha abantu.”+ 26 E lyo umukalamba wa bakalinda aile pamo na balinshi bakwe no kubaleta, lelo ukwabula ukubasunkasunka, pantu baletiina+ ukupoolwa amabwe ku bantu.
27 E lyo babaletele no kubemika mu cilye ca Sanhedrini. Na shimapepo mukalamba alibepwishe 28 no kutila: “Ukweba twamwebele+ ukuti mwilasambilishisha mwi shina ili, nomba, moneni! namusalanganya isambilisho+ lyenu mu Yerusalemu monse, kabili mulefwaya ukuleta umulopa+ wa uyu muntu pali ifwe.” 29 Pa kwasuka, Petro na batumwa bambi batile: “Tufwile ukunakila Lesa ukucila ukunakila abantu.+ 30 Lesa wa fikolwe fyesu aimishe+ Yesu, uo imwe mwaipeye, pa kumupoopela pa cimuti.+ 31 Lesa alimusansabike no kumuteka ku kwa kulyo+ kwakwe, ukuba Intungulushi+ kabili Umupusushi,+ pa kutila abena Israele balapile+ no kwelelwa imembu.+ 32 Kabili tuli nte sha ifi fintu,+ ifwe pamo no mupashi wa mushilo,+ uo Lesa apeela ku bamunakila.”
33 Ilyo baumfwile aya mashiwi, balikalipe icine cine, kabili balefwaya fye ukubepaya.+ 34 Lelo umuntu umo, umuFarise, alimine mu cilye ca Sanhedrini, ishina lyakwe ni Gamaliele,+ kasambilisha wa Mafunde uo abantu bonse bacindike, kabili asosele ukuti bafumye aba bantu pa nse inshita inono.+ 35 Kabili abebele ati: “Mwe bena Israele,+ cenjeleni ku fyo mulepanga ukucita kuli aba bantu. 36 Moneni, ilyo shino nshiku tashilaisa kwaimine Teuda, uwaleimona ukubapo cimo,+ kabili abantu abengi, nalimo imyanda ine (400), bailundile kwi bumba lyakwe.+ Lelo aliipaiwe, na bonse abalemumfwila balisalangene no kuloba. 37 Pakonkele Yuda umwina Galili uwaimine mu nshiku sha kulembesha abantu,+ kabili aleongola abantu ukuti bamukonke. Lelo na o wine alifwile, na bonse abalemumfwila basalanganine ukutali. 38 E ico, nomba, ndemweba nati, Talukeniko kuli aba bantu, balekeni babe; (pantu, ili pange atemwa uyu mulimo nga wafuma ku bantu, ukawa;+ 39 lelo nga wafuma kuli Lesa,+ mukafilwa ukubawisha;)+ epali mwasangwa mulelwa na Lesa.”+ 40 Awe balimumfwile, kabili baitile abatumwa, no kubafopaula,+ no kubalesha ukulandila mwi shina lya kwa Yesu,+ e lyo babalekele baye.
41 E ico, bafumine pa ntanshi ya cilye ca Sanhedrini, baya balesekelela+ pantu basangilwe abawamina ukuculila ishina lyakwe.+ 42 Kabili balesambilisha+ no kubila imbila nsuma pali Kristu Yesu+ ukwabula ukuleka cila bushiku mwi tempele na ku ng’anda ne ng’anda.+
