11 Ngobusuku obulandelayo iNkosi yema ngakuye, yathi: “Yima isibindi; njengalokho ufakaze ngami eJerusalema, ngokunjalo umelwe ukufakaza naseRoma.”
12 Kwathi sekusile, abaJuda benza iqeqeba, bazilokothela bethi abayikudla, bangaphuzi, bengakambulali uPawulu.
13 Babengaphezu kwamashumi amane ababenze lelo cebo.
14 Bona base beza kubapristi abakhulu nasemalungeni, bathi: “Sizibophe ngesilokothelo sokuthi asiyikuzwa ukudla size simbulale uPawulu.
15 Manje-ke nina kanye nomphakathi yazisani induna yenkulungwane ukuba imehlisele kini ngokungathi nizakuhlolisisa indaba yakhe; thina-ke silungele ukumbulala engakasondeli.”
16 Kepha indodana kadadewabo kaPawulu yezwa ngokumqamekela kwabo, yafika yangena ekamu,* yambikela uPawulu.
17 UPawulu wayesebiza enye induna yekhulu, wathi: “Yisa le nsizwa enduneni yenkulungwane, ngokuba inento ezakuyibika kuyo.”
