1Kwathi emva kwezinsuku eziyisihlanu u-Ananiya umpristi omkhulu wehla kanye namalunga, nomkhulumeli othile uTertulu, bona bemangalele uPawulu kumbusi.
2Kuthe esebiziwe, uTertulu waqala ukummangalela, ethi: “Njengoba sijabulela ukuthula okukhulu ngawe, nokuthi lesi sizwe senzelwa imisebenzi emihle kakhulu ngokuqondisa kwakho;
3Siyakwamukela ngezikhathi zonke nasezindaweni zonke ngokubonga okukhulu, Feliksi odumileyo.
4Nokho ukuze ngingakukhathaleli kakhulu, ngiyakuncenga ukuba usizwe kafushane ngobubele bakho.
5Ngoba siyitholile indoda le iyisixhwanguxhwangu, ibangela ukuvukela umbuso phakathi kwabaJuda bonke emhlabeni wonke, ingumkhokheli wehlelo lamaNazaretha.
6owaphinde wazama ukungcolisa ithempeli, esamthatha, besifuna ukumahlulela ngokomthetho wethu.
7Kodwa induna yenkulungwane uLisiya yasihlasela, yamsusa esandleni sethu ngendluzula enkulu.
8Walaya abamangaleli bakhe ukuthi beze kuwe;
9NamaJuda avuma, ethi lezi zinto zinjalo.
10UPawuli esemqhwebile ukuthi akhulume, waphendula wathi: Njengoba ngazi ukuthi sekuyiminyaka eminengi ungumgwebi walesisizwe, ngiziphendulela ngesibindi esikhulu.
11ngokuba ukuze uqonde ukuthi kusesele izinsuku eziyishumi nambili ngenyukela eJerusalema ukuyokhuleka.
12njalo kabangifumananga ethempelini ngiphikisana lamuntu, njalo ngivusa ixuku, lemasinagogeni, ledolobheni;
13Futhi abanakufakazela lokho abangimangalela ngakho manje.
14Kepha ngiyavuma lokhu kuwe ukuthi ngendlela abayibiza ngokuthi ihlelo, ngokunjalo ngiyamkhonza uNkulunkulu wawobaba, ngikholwa yikho konke okulotshiweyo emthethweni nakubaprofethi;
15nginethemba kuNkulunkulu, abalibekayo nabo uqobo, lokuthi kuyakuba khona ukuvuka kwabafileyo, okwabalungileyo nabangalungile.
16Nakulokhu ngiyazivivinya ukuba ngihlale nginonembeza ongenacala kuNkulunkulu nakubantu.
17Kwathi emva kweminyaka eminingi ngafika ukuletha izipho esizweni sakithi neminikelo.
18Kulokho abaJuda abathile base-Asiya bangifumana ethempelini ngihlanjululwe, kungelasixuku noma nginesiyaluyalu.
19ababemelwe ukuba lapha phambi kwakho, bangiphikisa, uma bebenokuthile ngami.
20Kumbe laba abakhona kabatsho, uba befumene ulutho olubi kimi, ngimi phambi komphakathi;
21ngaphandle kwaleli zwi linye engamemeza ngalo ngimi phakathi kwabo, lokuthi ngokuvuka kwabafileyo ngimangalelwa yinina namuhla.
22Kwathi uFeliksi esezwile lezizinto, ekwazi ngokugcweleyo kakhulu ngaleyo Ndlela, wababuyisela emuva, wathi: Nxa uLisiya induna yenkulungwane esehlile, mina ngizakwazi ngokugcwele indaba yenu.
23Waselaya induna yekhulu ukuthi agcinwe uPawuli, njalo abe lenkululeko, njalo kungavinjelwa muntu wakubo ukumkhonza kumbe ukuza kuye.
24Kwathi emva kwezinsuku ezithile wafika uFeliksi noDrusila umkakhe owayengumJudakazi, wabiza uPawulu, wamuzwa ngokukholwa kuKristu.
25Esakhuluma ngokulunga, nokuzithiba, nokwahlulela okuzayo, uFelike washaywa luvalo, waphendula wathi: “Okwamanje hamba; nxa nginesikhathi esihle, ngizakubiza.
26Yena wayethemba ukuthi uzanikwa uPawuli imali, ukuze amkhulule; ngakho wambiza kanengi, ekhuluma laye.
27Kepha emva kweminyaka emibili kwangena uPorkiyu Festu esikhundleni sikaFeliksi;
