1 Uthe ngoko uFesto, akuba engene eburhulumenteni, wathi emva kwemihla emithathu, wenyuka waya eYerusalem, esuka eKesareya.

2 Ke kaloku, umbingeleli omkhulu nabaziintloko kumaYuda bammangalela uPawulos kuye, bambongoza,

3 becela ukuba abababale ngokumbiza eze eYerusalem; bemlalele ukuze bambulale endleleni.

4 Waphendula ke ngoko uFesto, wathi, ugcinwe eKesareya uPawulos; naye ke ngokwakhe uza kuya kamsinya.

5 Wathi, Mabathi ngoko abanako phakathi kwenu, behle kunye nam, bayimangalele, ukuba kukho into kule ndoda.

6 Akuba ke elibele kubo imihla engaphezu kweshumi, wehla waya eKesareya; ngengomso, akuba ehleli esihlalweni sokugweba, wathi makaziswe uPawulos.

7 Uthe ke akufika, amaYuda abehle evela eYerusalem, amngqonga, emtyhola ngamatyala amaninzi anzima uPawulos, awayengenako ukuwamisa;

8 esithi yena ukuziphendulela, Nasemthethweni wamaYuda, nasetempileni, nakuKesare,* andonanga nto.

9 Ke uFesto, efuna ukuzithandisa kumaYuda, umphendule uPawulos wathi, Ùyathanda na ukunyuka uye eYerusalem, lithethwe khona ityala lezi zinto phambi kwam?

10 Uthe ke uPawulos, Ndimi esihlalweni sokugweba sikaKesare, apho limele ukuthethwa khona ityala lam. AmaYuda andiwonanga nganto, njengokuba nawe usazi kakuhle.

11 Kuba okunene ukuba ndonile, ndenza into elingene ukufa, andali kufa; kodwa ukuba akukho nanye yezo zinto bandimangalela ngazo aba, akukho namnye unako ukundinikela kubo. Ndibhenele kuKesare.

12 Waza uFesto, akuba ethethe nephakathi, waphendula wathi, Ùbhenele kuKesare; ùya kuya kuKesare.

UAgripa noBhernike

13 Ke kaloku, kwakubon' ukuba kudlule imihla ethile, uAgripa, ukumkani, noBhernike bafika eKesareya, besiza kubulisa uFesto.

14 Bakulibala khona ke imihla emininzi, uFesto wazandlala phambi kokumkani lowo izinto ezingaye uPawulos, esithi, Kukho ndoda ithile ishiyiweyo nguFelikis, ikhonkxiwe,

15 abathe ababingeleli abakhulu namadoda amakhulu amaYuda, oko ndibe ndiseYerusalem, bayimangalela, becela ukuba igwetywe.

16 Endathi ukubaphendula, Asilosiko lamaRoma ukubabala ngomntu abulawe, phambi kokuba lowo umangalelweyo akhangelane nabamangaleli bakhe, azuze nethuba lokuziphendulela ngalo ityala lakhe.

17 Bakuba ngoko bebuthelene apha, àndilibazisanga; ngomhla olandelayo ndahlala esihlalweni sokugweba, ndathi mayiziswe indoda leyo.

18 Abamangaleli bayo, bakùvela, abamisanga nalinye ityala lezo zinto bendizindlela kuzo mna;

19 ke baye beneembuzwano ezithile nayo ngokuhlonela kwabo izithixo, nangaYesu uthile ufileyo, abesithi yena uPawulos uhleli.

20 Ndakuthingaza ke mna ngawo umbuzo wale ndawo, ndathi, Ùnga ungaya eYerusalem na, lithethwe khona ityala lezi zinto?

21 Akubon' ukuba ke uPawulos ubhenele ukuba agcinelwe isigwebo soMhlekazi, ndathi makagcinwe, ndide ndimthumele kuKesare.

22 Wathi ke uAgripa kuFesto, Bendinga nam ndingakhe ndimve umntu lowo. Wathi ke yena, Ùya kumva ngomso.

23 Uthe ke akufika ngengomso uAgripa enoBhernike, benendili enkulu, bengene nasendaweni yokuphulaphulela amatyala, benabathetheli-waka namadoda amakhulu omzi, waziswa uPawulos ngezwi likaFesto.

24 Wathi uFesto, Agripa kumkani, nani nonke madoda akhoyo nathi, niyambona lo mntu, ethe yonke inkitha yamaYuda yasingisa kum ngaye, naseYerusalem nalapha, ibhomboloza kakhulu isithi, akasafanele kudla ubomi;

25 mna ke ndithe ndakùqonda ukuba akenzanga nto ilingene ukufa, akubon' ukuba naye ngokwakhe ubhenele kuMhlekazi, ndagqiba kwelokuba ndimthumele kuye,

26 endingenanto iyinyaniso ndingayibhalayo ngaye enkosini yam. Ngako oko ndimzisé phambi kwenu, ngokukodwa phambi kwakho, kumkani Agripa, ukuze, kwakubon' ukuba kunciniwe, ndibe nento endingayibhalayo;

27 kuba kum kubonakala ibubudenge, ukuba kuthunyelwe ikhonkxwa, lingaqondakaliswa netyala elinalo.
