1Mu Kikunsu ky'Abaikiriza mu Kurisito eky'omu Antiokia mwalimu abalanzi n'abeegeresa: Barunaba ni Simeoni, eyayetebwanga Omwirugavu, Lukio ow'e Kurene, Menayeni eyakulira aghalala n'omufuzi Herode, ni Saulo. 2Bwe baali nga bagheereza Musengwa era nga basiiba, Mwoyo Mutukuvu yaabakoba ati: “Mundhawulire Barunaba ni Saulo bankolere omulimo gwe mbeeteire.” 3Agho bwe baamala okusiiba n'okusaba, baabaisaaku emikono, baabatuma.

Barunaba ni Saulo mu Kupuro

4Agho Barunaba ni Saulo bwe baamala okutumibwa Mwoyo Mutukuvu, baikirira e Seleukia, era okuva agho, baaseeyeeya baaja e Kupuro. 5Nga bali e Salami baayegeresa ekibono kya Katonda mu sinagoga edh'Abayudaaya, era nga baali ni Yoanne eyabayambangaku.

6Bwe baabitabita mu kizinga kyonakyona okutuuka e Pafo, baayagaana Omuyudaaya omulogo, era omulanzi ow'obuguya nga eriina lye ni Bari Yesu. 7Ono yabanga ew'omufuzi w'ekizinga ekyo, omusaadha eyali omugezi eyayetebwanga Serugio Paulo. Omufuzi ono yaayeta Barunaba ni Saulo, kuba yayenda okuwulira ekibono kya Katonda. 8Aye Eluma, omulogo ng'eriina lye bwe likoba, yaabatakania nga ayenda omufuzi alobe kwikiriza. 9Agho Saulo, era amanhiibwa nga Paulo yaidhula Mwoyo Mutukuvu yaasimba Eluma amaiso, 10yaamukoba ati: “Iwe omwana wa Sitaani! Iwe aidhwire obuguya n'obukupankupania, omuzigu w'obutuukirivu bwonabwona! Tolirekera kugodagoda magira ga Musengwa amatereevu? 11Aye mperaano bona eno, Musengwa akusonseemu olwala, oidha kuba mutulu nga tobona ndhuba okumala entangama.” Mangu ago ekifu n'enzikiiza byamugwa ku maiso, yaaghaamanta ng'ayagala ow'okumugema ku mukono. 12Agho omufuzi bwe yabona ebyaligho yaikiriza nga yeewuunhia inho endhegeresa ya Musengwa.

Paulo ni Barunaba mu Antiokia eky'e Pisidia

13Agho Paulo ni baine baaseeyeeya okuva e Pafo baatuuka e Peruga eky'omu Panfilia, era Yoanne yaabavaaku yairayo e Yerusalemu. 14Aye baava e Peruga beeyongerayo baatuuka mu Antiokia eky'omu Pisidia. Era ku lunaku lwa Sabbato bangira mu sinagoga baatyama. 15Ebyaghandiikibwa mu Mateeka ni mu balanzi bwe byawa okusomebwa, abakulu ba sinagoga baabeeta nga babakoba bati: “Aboluganda, oba nga muli n'ekibono eky'okulamba abantu mukyogere.” 16Paulo yaasituka yaabaghemya basirike, yaakoba ati:

“Baisiraeli banange n'imwe abatya Katonda, muwulire. 17Katonda w'abantu bano Abaisiraeli, yalonda badhaadha baife yaabafuula eighanga eikologho, bwe baali mu buwanganguse e Misiri, era yaabatoolayo n'amaani ge agataloodheka.#Kuv 1:7; 12:51 18Yaabaguminkiriza mu irungu okumala emyaka nga makumi ana (40).#Kub 14:34; Ma 1:31 19Yaazikiriza amaghanga omusanvu agaali mu nsi ey'e Kanaani, yaabagha ensi eyo okuba obutaka bwaibwe,#Ma 7:1; Yosh 14:1 20okumalira irala emyaka nga bikumi bina n'ataanu.#Balam 2:16; 1 Sam 3:20

“Ebyo bwe byawa, yaabagha abalamuzi okutuusa mu byanda by'omulanzi Samueli. 21Agho baasaba okugheebwa kyabazinga, Katonda yaabagha Saulo mutabane wa Kishi ow'omu kika kya Benjamini, yaabafugira emyaka amakumi ana (40).#1 Sam 8:5; 10:21 22Katonda bwe yamutoolagho, yaabateeragho Daudi okuba kyabazinga waibwe. Ono ni Katonda ye yayogereraku ati: ‘Nzwire mu Daudi omwana wa Yesse omusaadha ye nsiima, anaakolanga byonabyona ebinsangaaza.’#1 Sam 13:14; 16:12; Zab 89:20 23Katonda ng'atuukiriza kye yasuubiza, afuniire Isiraeli Omulokozi Yesu nga amutoola mu izaire lya Daudi ono. 24Yesu ng'akaali kwidha, Yoanne yalangirira eri abantu ba Isiraeli boonaboona beenenie era babatizibwe.#Mar 1:4; Luk 3:3 25Era Yoanne bwe yali ng'ali kumpi okumaliriza omulimo gwe, yaakoba abantu ati: ‘Mudhuuba muti ninze ani? Ti ninze Oyo. Aye mubone eno, ghaligho aidha okwidha, ye ntagwaine na kutoola ngaito mu bigere bye.’#Mat 3:11; Mar 1:7; Luk 3:16; Yoa 1:20, 27

26“Imwe aboluganda baidhukulu ba Aburahamu n'imwe abandi mwenamwena abatya Katonda, obukwenda buno obw'obulokozi bwagheebwa ife. 27Kuba abantu ab'omu Yerusalemu aghalala n'abafuzi baibwe, tibaamanha Yesu nga n'Omulokozi, waire okutegeera ebibono eby'abalanzi ebisomebwa kiisi lwa Sabbato. Aye baatuukiriza ebibono eby'abalanzi bwe baasalira Yesu omusango ogw'okufa. 28Waire tibaazuula nsonga emwisa, baasaba Pilato okwita Yesu.#Mat 27:22-23; Mar 15:13-14; Luk 23:21-23; Yoa 19:15 29Bwe baamala okutuukiriza nga byonabyona ebyaghandiikibwa bwe bimwogeraku, baamughanula ku musalaba baamuta mu magombe.#Mat 27:57-61; Mar 15:42-47; Luk 23:50-56; Yoa 19:38-42 30Aye Katonda yaamuzuukiza mu bafu. 31Yaamala enaku kamaala ng'abonekera abo abaaniinaniina naye e Yerusalemu nga bava e Galilaaya. Abo buti n'abadhulizi be, eri abantu.#Bik 1:3 32Kale ni, Amawulire Amalungi ge tubaleetera ni gano nti Katonda yatuukiriza kye yasuubiza badhaadha baife, 33bwe yazuukiza Yesu ku lwaife baidhukulu be, era nga bwe kyaghandiikibwa mu Zabbuli eyokubiri kiti,#Zab 2:7

‘Oli Mwana wange,

olwaleero nkuzaire.’

34Okukakasa nga yamuzuukiza nga takairayo kufa, Katonda kyeyava n'akoba ati,#Isa 55:3

‘Ndibagha emikisa emitukuvu egitawaagho

gye nagha Daudi.’

35Ni Zabbuli eyindi ekoba eti,

‘Toliganha mugheereza wo omutukuvu kuvunda.’#Zab 16:10

36Kuba Daudi yamala okukola emirimo gye yamutegekera mu bulamu bwe, yaafa, yaaziikibwa aghali badhaadha be, yaavunda. 37Aye oyo Katonda ye yazuukiza, tiyavunda. 38Kale ni aboluganda, mukimanhe muti ghazira asobola kubakobera ku kusoniyibwa bibi nga tabise mu oyo, oba okubawonia ebyo byonabyona ebibalobera okuba abatukuvu okusinziira ku Mateeka ga Musa. 39Mu oyo, omuntu yeenayeena aikiriza atukuzibwa. 40Kale mwerinde kirobe kubabaaku abalanzi kye baayogera nga bakoba bati,

41‘Mubone eno imwe abanhoomi, mwewuunhie era muzikirire!#Hab 1:5

Kuba nkola omulimo mu biseera byaimwe,

omulimo gwe mutaliikiriza,

waire nga ghaligho agubainhonhola.’”

42Bwe baali bafuluma mu sinagoga, abantu baabasaba baire babakobere ebibono ebyo ku Sabbato eiririra. 43Abantu nga baviire mu sinagoga, Abayudaaya kamaala n'abamaghanga agandi abaakyuka ni baasoma Ekiyudaaya, baanonereza Paulo ni Barunaba. Paulo ni Barunaba baayogera nabo, baabakubiriza okugumira mu maiso ga Katonda.

44Ku lwa Sabbato olwairirira, kumpi abantu boonaboona abaali mu kibuga baidha okuwulira ekibono kya Katonda. 45Aye Abayudaaya bwe baabona eikuukuubira ery'abantu, ensaalwa yaabagema, baatakania Paulo bye yayogera era baamuvuma. 46Aye Paulo ni Barunaba, baayogera nga bagumu, baakoba bati: “Kibaire kigwaine okusooka okukobera imwe ekibono kya Katonda. Aye nga bwe mukirobye era ni mwesaliragho beene nga bwe mutagwaine kufuna bulamu obutawaagho, kale twidha kubaleka tuje y'abamaghanga agandi 47kuba ekyo Musengwa kye yatulagira, bwe yatukoba ati,#Isa 42:6; 49:6

‘Nkutairegho obe ekimuliikirira eri abamaghanga agandi,

obe obulokozi bw'ensi yoonayoona.’ ”

48Abamaghanga agandi bwe baawulira ebyo, baasangaala, ekibono kya Katonda baakitaamu ekitiisa. Abo abaali balondeibwa okufuna obulamu obutawaagho baikiriza.

49Ekibono kya Katonda kyabuna woonawoona mu kiketezo ekyo. 50Aye Abayudaaya baapikiriza abakazi ab'ekitiisa era abaidhumbiranga eidiini, n'abasaadha abakulu ab'ekibuga, baatoolereza okukiriga Paulo ni Barunaba era baababinga mu kiketezo kyaibwe. 51Aye Paulo ni Barunaba baakunkumulira abantu abo enkungu ey'omu bigere byaibwe, baaja mu Ikonio,#Mat 10:14; Mar 6:11; Luk 9:5; 10:11 52era abeegeresebwa baidhula eisanhu ni Mwoyo Mutukuvu.
