Izenzo 5 XHO75

UHananiya noSafira

1 Ke kaloku indoda ethile, uHananiya ngegama, inoSafira umkayo, yathengisa ngemfuyo yayo.

2 Yashinta kulo ixabiso layo, esazi naye umkayo; yazisa nxenye ithile, yayibeka ezinyaweni zabapostile.*

3 Wathi ke uPetros, Hananiya, kungani na ukuba uSathana azalise intliziyo yakho, ukuba umxokise uMoya oyiNgcwele, ushinte kulo ixabiso lomhlaba?

4 Oko úbe uhleli, ubungahleli kuwe na? Kanjalo úthengisiwe, ubungekhona na egunyeni lakho? Yini na ukuba uyibeke le nto entliziyweni yakho? Akuxoké kubantu, uxoke kuThixo.

5 Ewavile ke uHananiya la mazwi, wawa, waphuma umphefumlo; kwabakho ukoyika okukhulu kubo bonke ababezivile ezi zinto.

6 Asuka ke amadodana amsonga, amthwalela phandle, amngcwaba.

7 Kwaba mzuzwana ke, ngathi ngowamaxa amathathu, wathi umkakhe, engayazi loo nto ihlileyo, wangena.

8 Umphendule ke uPetros wathi, Ndixelele, umhlaba lo wakhutshelwa inani elingáka na? Wathi ke yena, Ewe, elingako.

9 Uthe ke uPetros kuye, Yini na ukuba nivumelane ngokumlinga uMoya weNkosi? Uyabona, iinyawo zabo bangcwabe indoda yakho sezisemnyango; baya kukuthwalela phandle.

10 Wawa ke kwalapho ezinyaweni zakhe, waphuma umphefumlo; bangena ke abafana, bamfumana efile, bamthwalela phandle, bamngcwabela ngasendodeni yakhe.

11 Kwabakho ukoyika kulo lonke ibandla, nakubo bonke abazivayo ezi zinto.

Imiqondiso nezimanga ezenziwa ngabapostile

12 Ke kaloku, ngazo izandla zabapostile kwabakho imiqondiso nezimanga ezininzi phakathi kwabantu; baye bonke bemxhelo mnye evarandeni* kaSolomon.

13 Ke kaloku, kwabanye akubangakho namnye waba nabuganga bakusinamathelisa kubo; baye abantu bebenzé bakhulu.

14 Kwaba kukhona bekongezwayo abakholwayo kwiNkosi, into eninzi yamadoda neyabafazi;

15 bada bayithwalela phandle imilwelwe ezitratweni, bayibeka ezingqengqelweni nasezinkukweni, ukuze kuthi, akubon' ukuba uPetros uyeza, kubekho kuyo ethi isityekelwe sisithunzi sakhe.

16 Yaye ke ibuthelana eYerusalem nenkitha yabemizi ejikelezileyo, ithwele imilwelwe nabakhathazwa ngoomoya abangcolileyo, ababesithi bona baphiliswe bonke.

UPetros noYohane kwakhona phambi kwentlanganiso yamatyala

17 Ke kaloku wesuka umbingeleli omkhulu, nabo bonke ababenaye (abangabehlelo labaSadusi), bazala ngumsindo;

18 babesa izandla abapostile, babafaka entolongweni yabantu bonke.

19 Ke kaloku isithunywa seNkosi sazivula iingcango zentolongo ebusuku, sabakhupha, sathi,

20 Hambani, niye kuma nithethe etempileni kubo abantu onke amazwi obu bomi.

21 Bevile ke, bangena kwangesifingo etempileni, bafundisa.Wafika ke umbingeleli omkhulu nabo babenaye, wayibizela ndawonye intlanganiso yamatyala, nawo onke amadoda amakhulu akoonyana bakaSirayeli; bathumela endlwini yamakhonkxwa ukuba beziswe.

22 Ke kaloku, akufika amadindala, akabafumananga entolongweni; abuya ke abika, esithi,

23 Indlu yamakhonkxwa siyifumene okunene ivalwe ngokuqinileyo kanye, nabalindi bemi ngaphandle phambi kweminyango. Sívulile ke, asifumananga mntu ngaphakathi.

24 Bathe ke bakuweva la mazwi umbingeleli kwanomphathi wetempile, nababingeleli abakhulu, labakhohla, bathi,

25 Azi, ingaba yintoni na le nto? Wafika ke othile, wababikela esithi, Yabonani, amadoda lawa beniwafake entolongweni, nangaya etempileni, emi efundisa abantu.

26 Wesuka umphathi enamadindala, wabazìsa kungengamandla; kuba babesoyika abantu, hleze baxulutywe ngamatye.

27 Bebazisile ke, babamisa entlanganisweni yamatyala; wababuza umbingeleli omkhulu, esithi,

28 Besinganithethelanga na kunene ngelithi, maningafundisi ngeli gama? Niyabona, niyizalisile iYerusalem ngemfundiso yenu; nifuna ukulizisa phezu kwethu igazi lalo mntu.

29 Waphendula ke uPetros nabapostile, bathi, Simelwe kukuthi sive uThixo kunokuba sive abantu.

30 UThixo woobawo bethu wamvusa uYesu, enambulalayo nina ngokumxhoma emthini.

31 Yena lowo uThixo wamphakamisa ngesandla sakhe sokunene, wanguMthetheli noMsindisi, ukuze amnike uSirayeli inguquko noxolelo lwezono.

32 Saye singamangqina akhe ezo ndawo thina, kwanoMoya oyiNgcwele, awamnika abo bamvayo yena uThixo.

33 Bathe ke bona bakukuva oko, bahlabeka entliziyweni, babhunga ukuba babasike.

34 Ke kaloku kwesuka kwema othile entlanganisweni yamatyala, umFarisi ogama linguGamaliyeli, umfundisi womthetho, obekekileyo kubantu bonke, wathi makhe bakhutshelwe phandle kancinane abapostile; wathi kubo,

35 Madoda, maSirayeli, zilumkeleni ngento eniza kuyenza kwaba bantu.

36 Kuba ngaphambi kwale mihla, kwesuka uTuda, esithi yena ngokwakhe unguthile; ekwanamathela kuye inani lamadoda angathi amakhulu mané; ngowasikwayo lowo; bathi bonke ababemthambele babhangazeka, ababa nto.

37 Emva kwalowo kwesuka uYuda welaseGalili, ngemihla yobhalo lomlibo wokuzalwa, wakhukulisa abantu banela; naye lowo watshabalala; baza bonke ababemthambele bachithwachithwa.

38 Kungoku ke ndithi kuni, Khwelelani kwaba bantu nibayeke; ngokuba eli cebo, nalo msebenzi, ukuba lingaba lelabantu, lotshitsha:

39 ukuba ke lelikaThixo, aninakulitshitshisa; hleze nifunyanwe ningábalwá kwanoThixo.

40 Bamthambela ke; bebabizile abapostile, babatyabula, babathethela ngelithi, mabangathethi ngegama likaYesu; babandulula ke.

41 Bemka ke ngoko bona ebusweni bentlanganiso yamatyala, bevuya, ngokuba kuthiwe bakufanele ukuhlaziswa ngenxa yegama lakhe.

42 Kananjalo imihla yonke etempileni, nasemakhaya, babengayeki ukufundisa nokushumayela iindaba ezilungileyo zokuba uYesu unguye uKristu.*
