Nlhuku aathanlhe wo uhimiechesha vachulhu aya, ‘Kihomwoona Daudi mwaana a Nayese, ntu nokiteelhiha nrima aka nohalha upangacha chittu chonkhaye chinothanana aka upanga.’ ” 23 “Nhina iyari ya Adaudi, Nlhuku ahaawiihera attu o Uisraeli Moopolhi, phi Yesu thoko chaalhehilhe awe. 24 Yesu hinaaya uchokholha ntheko awe, Nayohana yahaahimiachera mwaha wo ukhoroma attu onkhaye o Uisraeli, ahiye uwonya waya abatiiziye. 25 Nayohana vaari aya amalhihaka ntheko aya, nkayeerelha attu, Nnaanyihera wiira mii phi Kuristo? Mena! Mii kakihiwe. Nansho mwiiwelhelheke, Yoyo noowa utulhi waka ni mii kihiphwanelhiyaka ata unrulha ikwakwata mmietoni mwawe.
26 “Ashilhoko aka, Aisraeli nanaka, o nihimo ni Aburahimu ni attu nhiri Ayahudi onkhaye nnonthimicha Nlhuku, ulha nttenga wo noopo ulha uhowiihiya uwanihu! 27 Ukhalhawaya attu o Uyerusalemu ni aholhelhi aya khayanchuwenlhe wiira Yoyo phi Moopolhi, mena khayaachuwenlhe malhove a anamilhohi anoshomiya kila Nihuku no Wiittuwa. Ata chiicho yahopanga malhove a anamilhohi atimire wo unhukumulha Yesu wiiviya. 28 Inakhalhaka khayaapantte nlhatu uriyoothe waaphwanenlhe umwiiva, yahaavekelha Napilato wiira anhukumulhe Yesu eeviye. 29 Vaamalhinhe aya upanga thoko chilhepiye ni Malhove Matakatifu chimwaaka, ahonkurusha vansalaabani, nkayamweesha nnihiyeni. 30 Nansho Nlhuku ahonhihimusha nnookhwani, 31 ni wo mahuku menchi ahaakhumelhelha attu aattukanne awe ukhuma Ugalilaya mpaka Uyerusalemu. Ni yayo vano phi nohimiechesha wa attu o Israeli. 32 Ni hii nihowa vaa niuhimiachereni mwaatti Malhove Orera, Nlhuku aalhehire awe manyaapwiiya ihu wiira, 33 Nlhuku nowaapangelha, anipangelhaka vano hii nirii iyari aya wo unhihimusha Yesu muukumini.

42 Napaolo ni Nabanaba vaakhuma aya nnupani mwo lhapelha mmo, yaholhalheiya wiira awe tho Nihuku no Wiittuwa naattwara, awe aahimiachera attu chinene yoyo mwaha uyo. 43 Nkutaano vaamanlhe aya wi inupa yo unlhapelha Nlhuku, nkutiro wa Ayahudi enchi ni attu ahiri Ayahudi yeettuchilhe idini ya Ayahudi, yahaattwara Napaolo ni Nabanaba. Akarumiya nkayaarerihana ni waahelha nrima wiira athepeke ukhalha akhulhuvelhelhaka nnema wa Nlhuku.
44 Nihuku no Wiittuwa naatwara, kila ntu o iwani iyo ahowa wiiwelhelha nlhove na Athithi. 45 Ayahudi vonne aya nlhoko wa attu, nkayaakelhiya ihache, nkayaavinga malhove olhumachiya ni Napaolo nkayaaruwana. 46 Nansho inakhalhaka chiicho etu, Napaolo ni Nabanaba yahoolhumacha wo machiri chinene, eeraka, “Nhochuwelha wiira yaari lazima nlhove na Nlhuku nichokholheke uhimiachiya uwaninyu mwaatti, nansho ukhalhawaya mwahokhota mwiichonaka wiira khamphwanelhiye ukumi wo uhimalha, ninouhiyani ni urwaa wa attu ahiri Ayahudi. 47 Ukhalhawaya Athithi ahonilhehera wiira,
