12 Haliko, ikyanya Firipo akayiji bamenyeesa Imyazi Miija hiꞌgulu lyoꞌbwami bwa Rurema, na hiꞌgulu liꞌziina lya Yesu Kirisito, banagiyemeera, abashosi naꞌbakazi, banabatiizibwa. 13 Simooni naye, anayemeera Yesu, anabatiizibwa, anakizi genda akulikiiri Firipo. Neꞌri akabonaga ibitangaaza bihamu byo Firipo âli kizi gira, ehee! Anasoomerwa ngana!
14 Indumwa za Yesu ízâli sigiiri i Yerusaleemu, iri zikayuvwa ngiisi kwaꞌbandu beꞌSamariya nabo keera bakayemeera Igambo lya Rurema, zanabalungikira Peturu na Yohana. 15 Neꞌri bakahika, banahuunira yabo bandu, gira nabo bayakiire Umutima Mweru. 16 Mukuba, ndaaye kiri noꞌmuguma wabo úwâli mali guyakiira. Bâli ki batiziibwi naaho kwiꞌziina lya Nahano Yesu. 17 Peturu na Yohana, mbu bababiikage kwaꞌmaboko, lyeryo nabo banayami yakiira Umutima Mweru!

20 Peturu, anamúshuvya: «Hafe! Wehe neꞌfwaranga zaawe, mufwirage ku mbinga! Si utoniri kwo wangagula ikigabi kya Rurema ku fwaranga! 21 Nanga! Ndaayo ngoome yo uhiiti mu yugu mukolwa gwa Rurema. Si umutima gwawe guhengamiri bweneene imbere lyage. 22 Aahago! Yubu buligo bwawe, ubutwikire kwo. Unahuune Nahano ulukogo, gira akukoge ku mitono yawe mibi. 23 Nabona kwo ukiri mwoꞌluugi! Neꞌbyaha byawe, bikoli kushwesiri.»
24 Simooni naye, ti: «E maashi! Mumbuunire imwa Nahano, gira mu gano magambo mwadeta, ndayiji gwatwa kiri neꞌliguma lyago!»
25 Ikyanya Peturu na Yohana bâli riiri i Samariya, nabo banatanga ubumasi hiꞌgulu lya Nahano Yesu, banayigiriza abandu hiꞌgulu liꞌGambo lyage. Neꞌkyanya bakagalukira i Yerusaleemu, banagenda bagamenyeesa Imyazi Miija na mu tundi twaya twingi tweꞌyo munda.
Firipo aganuuza umukulu weꞌHendyopiya
26 Umuganda wa Nahano, anabwira Firipo ti: «Ushokole injira íleeziri mwiꞌshamba, uluhande lweꞌkisaka, irya ílyosiri i Yerusaleemu mu kugenda i Gaza.» 27 Kwokwo, Firipo anayimuka, anashokola njira.
Neꞌri akaba akiri mu njira, banagwanana noꞌmukulu muguma wa mu kihugo kyeꞌHendyopiya úwâli riiri mutungule.* Anali ye wâli yimangiiri ibindu byoshi bya Kandaake, mwami-kazi weꞌyo munda. Uyo mukulu, âli geeziri i Yerusaleemu hiꞌgulu lyoꞌkugendi yikumbira yo Rurema. 28 Âli kola mu taaha, abwatiiri mwiꞌgaare lyage, agweti agaasoma mu kitaabo kyoꞌmuleevi Hisaaya.
29 Lyeryo, Umutima Mweru gwanabwira Firipo: «Uduukage yiri igaare, unalikulikire!» 30 Firipo, analitibita kwo, analiduuka. Neꞌri akayuvwa kwoꞌyo mukulu ali mu soma mu kitaabo kyoꞌmuleevi Hisaaya, anamúbuuza: «Yago magambo go ugweti ugaasoma, ka ugasobanukiirwi?» 31 Anamúshuvya: «Kutagi kwo nangasobanukirwa nago, ndaanaye mundu woꞌkuganzobanulira? Nakuhuuna, ushonerage muno, tubwatalanwe!»
32 Yago Mandiko Meeru go âli gweti agaasoma, go gaaga:
«Akasholerwa nga kibuzi íkigagendi tongeerwa.
Kundu kwokwo, anahulika naaho,
nga kweꞌkyanabuzi kiri mu hulika ku kyanya kiri mu kemwa ubwoya.
33 Akagayirizibwa mu kunyagwa ukuli kwage.
Ndaanaye mundu úwangaganuula imyazi yeꞌkibusi kyage,
mukuba uburambe bwage bukagitulwa hano mu kihugo.»
34 Uyo mukulu, anabwira Firipo: «E waliha, nakuyinginga umbwire. Yago magambo goꞌbuleevi, galyagagi hiꞌgulu lya nyandi? Ka hiꞌgulu lyage yenyene, kandi iri hiꞌgulu lyoꞌgundi?» 35 Lyeryo, Firipo anatondeerera ku gaago magambo ga Hisaaya, anamúmenyeesa hiꞌgulu lyeꞌMyazi Miija ya Yesu.
36 Neꞌri bakaba baki genderiiri mu njira, banahika áhali amiiji. Uyo mukulu anamúbwira: «Kundi kutagi? Amiiji yaga. Aaho! Biki íbyangaki mbuza kwo ndabatiizibwe?» [ 37 Firipo anamúshuvya: «Iri wangayemeera Yesu Kirisito ku mutima gwawe gwoshi, lyo wangabatiizibwa.» Uyo mukulu, ti: «Ee! Nayemeera kwo Yesu Kirisito ali Mwana wa Rurema.»]
38 Lyeryo, uyo mukulu anadeta kwiꞌgaare lyage liyimangikwe. Haaho, yabo bombi banayegeera amiiji. Neꞌri bakagayikira mwo, Firipo anamúbatiiza.
39 Ikyanya bakalyoka mu miiji, Firipo, Umutima gwa Nahano gwanamúhunguukana. Uyo mukulu atanaki shubi múbona, anagenderera noꞌlugeezi lwage akoli shambiiri.
40 Firipo anayiji boneka mu kaaya keꞌHazoto. Anagenda agalenga mu twaya twoshi tweꞌyo munda, agweti agamenyeesa yeꞌMyazi Miija, halinde anahika na mu kaaya keꞌKahisariya.
