Ekibuulyo oku kukomola nʼokulokoka
1 Awo ni wabbaawo abantu abamo abazwire omwitwale lyʼe Buyudaaya ni baiza omwAntiyokiya, ni batandiika okwaba nga beegesya aboluganda bati, “Okutoolaku nga inywe aBatali Bayudaaya nywena babakomoire ngʼeiteeka lya naabbi Musa oweriragira, oKibbumba tayezya kubalokola.”+ 2 Ekyo ni kireetawo oPawulo nʼoBbalunaba okwakana okwʼamaani nabo. Okumala empaka, ni basalawo bati oPawulo nʼoBbalunaba, nʼabamo oku baikirirya abʼomwAntiyokiya nga babeerekaku, baabe e Yerusaalemi egiri abatume nʼabakaire bʼekanisa babeebuulyeku oku nsonga eyo. 3 Oluzwanyuma lwʼabʼekanisa yʼomu Foinisiya okusibirira oPawulo nʼoBbalunaba ebintu ebibeetaaga omu lugendo lwabwe, ni babaseebula. Kale ni babitira omu kyalo kyʼe Bufoiniiki, nʼomu Samaaliya. Baabanga bacaalira ekanisa yʼomu bitundu ebyo, nga webabakoberaku nga nʼaBatali Bayudaaya owebali kucuuka ni baira eeri oKibbumba. Aboluganda abo owebawuliire ebyo, ni baizula eisangaalo eribitiriri. 4 Owebatuuka e Yerusaalemi, abʼekanisa aamo nʼabatume nʼabakaire bʼekanisa ni babasangaalira. OPawulo nʼoBbalunaba ni babalonserya byonabyona oKibbumba ebiyabbaire abayezyeserye okukola.
5 Awo abamo oku Bayudaaya ababbaire bʼomu kibbula kyʼaBafalisaayo neye nga bona baikirirya ba Yesu ni basetuka ni bakoba bati, “Abantu aBatali Bayudaaya kibeetaagisya okubakomola era nʼokubalagira okukwatanga aMateeka ga Musa.”
6 Okugolola ensonga eyo abatume nʼabakaire bʼekanisa ni bakubba olukiiko. 7 Okuteeserera oku nsonga eyo owekwabiriire neye nga mpaawo ekituuce ekibaikiriziganyaku, oPeetero nʼasetuka nʼabakoba ati, “Boluganda, nywena abanyere mukimaite ngʼe nyumaku eedi oKibbumba oweyannonderemu mwinywe ati ndaabbe aMawuliro aMasa eeri aBatali Bayudaaya, bona bayezye okwikiririrya omu Yesu.+ 8 Era oKibbumba, iye amaite ebiri omu mwoyo gwa buli muntu, okukikakasa nga bona owabasiima, yabawaire oMwoyo oMutukulye dala ngʼoweyamutuwaire iswe aBayudaaya.+ 9 Ekikoba kiti, tiyalagire enjawulo aakati waiswe nabo olwʼokubba bona ebibbibibbi byabwe yabibasoniyire lwʼokwikirirya mu Yesu. 10 Aale atyanu bainange, lwaki mwendererya oKibbumba nga mugereka oku baikirirya aBatali Bayudaaya ekijooko kyʼaMateeka ekyatukaire iswe abanyere naabba abazeiza baiswe okukwata ni tugatuukirirya? 11 Tikiri nʼokubba kityo! Iswe ngʼowetwikirirya tuti tulokoka lwʼekisa kya Musengwa waiswe oYesu, kityo wekiri nʼeeri ibo bona.”
12 Awo bonabona ababbaire bakumbaine omu lukiiko ni basirika okuwulisisya oPawulo nʼoBbalunaba nga babalonserya ebyewunyo nʼebyamagero oKibbumba ebiyabbaire abayezyeserye okukola omu bantu aBatali Bayudaaya. 13 Owebamalire okutumula, oYaakobbo, oyo nga yabbaire moiza oku batume abakulu, nʼakoba ati, “Boluganda, kaade mumpulisisyeku. 14 OSimooni atusonzoleire engeri oKibbumba omu kusookesya eedi oweyalagire okulumirwa abantu aBatali Bayudaaya oweyabalonderemu abamo kwibo okubba ababe nakimo. 15 Ekyo kikwatagana kusani ino nʼekyo ekiri omu Biwandiike byʼabanaabbi ekikoba kiti oKibbumba ati waakoba:
16 ‘Egibwizaku eeyo, naliira
ni njiryawo buyaaka obwakabaka bwa Dawudi obwagwire.
Ngʼowoobona owebairamu okwombeka enyumba
eyabbaire esensemukire nʼegwa
neye ni bagiiryawo buyaaka,
ntyo wenalibwiryawo.
17 Awo kaisi abantu bonabona abasigairekuuwo,
aamo nʼaBatali Bayudaaya abenalonderemu okubba abantu bange
basunenge enyonta yʼokuntwalanga ngʼoMusengwa waabwe.
Atyo oMusengwa, iye eyagirire ebintu ebyo
18 ni babimanya okuzwa eira nʼeira, waakoba.’ ”+
19 OYaakobbo ni yeeyongerayo ati, “Nʼolwekyo, nze embona eyange eri nti tuleke okugosiyisirya aBatali Bayudaaya okucuuka okwira eeri oKibbumba nga tubapaatiikaku nʼaMateeka nʼobulombolombo bwa Musa. 20 Wazira ekitubba tukola, tubawandiikire bbaluwa tubakobe bazire okulyanga ekintu kyonakyona ekibawongere eeri ebifaananyi, beewale nʼobulendi, era balekeraawo okulyanga ebisolo ebibamyedere-obumyedi ooba okulya osuudo.+ 21 Ekyo kityo olwʼokubba ebyo niibyo ebintu ebikulu omu Mateeka oMusa ageyawandiikire, era nenca ebibeegesya mu buli kibuga era okuzwa eira nʼeira ebibasoma omu makumbaaniro buli ku Saabbaato.”
Olukiiko ekirwasalirewo
22 Nʼolwekyo, abatume nʼabakaire, aamo nʼekanisa yonayona ni basalawo beerondemu abakwenda babatume omwAntiyokiya, aamo nʼoPawulo nʼoBbalunaba. Kale ni balonda oYuda abandi ogubeeta oBbalusabba nʼoSiira, ngʼabo babbaire basaiza beekubbemberi omu boluganda abanaabwe. 23 Olukiiko ni lukwatisya abakwenda abo ebbaluwa ekoba eti:
Iswe aboluganda abanaanywe, abatume aamo nʼabakaire bʼekanisa, tubawandiikira inywe aboluganda aBatali Bayudaaya abali omu kibuga Antiyokiya, nʼokutwalirya aamo omu matwale gʼe Siiriya nʼe Sirisiya. Tubasugiirye ino.
24 Tubuliire nambu waliyo abamo mwiswe abaizire eeyo anambula kusuna lukusa okuzwa egituli, ni batumula ebibono ebyabatabwiretabwire era ni bibaleyerya ebiseego. 25 Kagira owetubbaire omu lukiiko, tutuukire oku kwikirizaganya tuti tulonde abakwenda tubatume egimuli. Baiza nʼabatake baiswe oBbalunaba nʼoPawulo, 26 abasaiza abanandi batya okuteeka obwomi bwabwe oku weenene olwʼokuweererya oMusengwa waiswe oYesu Kurisito. 27 Ngonu tusindikire oYuda nʼoSiira egimuli babakakase maiso ku maiso binu ebitubawandiikiire inywe.
28 OMwoyo oMutukulye, era na iswe swena tukiboine nga niikyo ekisaaniire okutabagosiyirira nga tubagerekaku ekyetaagisya ekindi kyonakyona okutoolaku ebyo omwikirirya ebyateezya kulekerera. 29 Mu binu niimwo omuli: Okuzirira nakimo okulyanga ebyokulya ebibawongeire ebifaananyi ebyʼokusinza, nʼomusaaye, nʼenyama yʼebisolo ebibatasalireku, kwebyo oteekeku nʼobulendi. Singa mwaleka ebintu ebyo, mwabba mwebitya mu ngeri esaaniire. Aale mweraba.
30 Awo abʼekanisa ni baseebula abakwenda abo, bona ni basetula okwaba omwAntiyokiya. Owebatuukire, ni bakumbaania ekanisa yʼoomwo, ni babakwatisya ebbaluwa. 31 Abaikirirya bʼomwAntiyokiya owebasomere ebbaluwa eyo, obukwenda obwagibbairemu ni bubairyamu amaani, ni baizula eisangaalo. 32 Awo oYuda nʼoSiira, abo bonabona nga babbaire nʼekirabo kyʼobunaabbi, ni batumula ebibono bingi eeri aboluganda okubairyamu amaani nʼokubagumya emyoyo. 33 Oluzwanyuma lwʼakabbanga akeera, aboluganda abʼomwAntiyokiya ni baseebula oYuda nʼoSiira okwirayo e Yerusaalemi egiri ababatumire, nga babatakirya enkabi nʼeidembe. [ 34 Neye oSiira iye nʼasalawo okusigala omwAntiyokiya, nʼolwekyo oYuda nʼakanga yenkani].* 35 Ibo oPawulo nʼoBbalunaba bona ababbaire basigaire omwAntiyokiya aamo nʼabanaabwe abandi, ni balaabba aamo nʼokwegesya abantu ekibono kya Musengwa.
OPawulo nʼoBbalunaba bagabukana
36 Lumo, awo nga wabitirekuuwo eibbanga eryera, oPawulo nʼakoba oBbalunaba ati, “Twirekuuyo mu buli kibuga e gitwalaabbire ekibono kya Musengwa tulambuuleku aboluganda, tubone embeera egibalimu.”
37 OBbalunaba oweyaikiriirye, omu kusetula nʼataka ati baabe nʼoYokaana, oyo ogubeetanga erindi bati Maako. 38 Neye ekyo ekyʼokwaba nʼomuntu eyabeekutwireku nʼabaleka omu Panfiriya, oPawulo iye nʼatakisiima.+ 39 Nʼolwekyo, ni wabbaawo okwakana okwʼamaani aakati waabwe. Era owebakayire okwikirizagana, ni baawukana. Atyo oBbalunaba nʼatwala oMaako, ni baniina omu lyato, ni baaba oku kizinga e Kupulo. 40 OPawulo iye nʼalonda oSiira, bona ni basetula ngʼaboluganda bamalire okubasabira okubakwatisya oKibbumba ababbeere omu lugendo lwabwe. 41 Ababiri abo ni babitabita omu byalo byʼe Siiriya nʼe Sirisiya, nga baaba bagumya emyoyo gyʼabʼekanisa.
