15. Emva kwexesha silapho salungiselela ukuya eJerusalem.
16. Abanye babalandeli bakaYesu baseKhesariya bahamba nathi, basisa endlwini yendoda egama linguMnaso, esathi sahlala nayo. Loo ndoda yayingumfo waseSipro, ilikholwa elaguquka kwimihla yangaphambili.
17. Ekufikeni kwethu eJerusalem, amakholwa asamkela ngezandla ezishushu.
18. Ngengomso sahamba noPawulos, saya kubona uYakobi. Nabo bonke abadala bebandla babekhona.
19. Ebabulisile uPawulos, wabanika ingxelo epheleleyo ngezinto zonke uThixo awayezenzile ngaye phakathi kweentlanga.
20. Bathi bakuziva, bamdumisa uThixo xa bebonke. Baza bacebisa bathi kuPawulos: “Mfondini, nawe uyazibonela ngokwakho ukuba apha kukho amawaka-waka amaJuda aguqukileyo angamakholwa, kodwa asabambelele *emthethweni kaMosis.
21. Evile ke ngawe ukuba wena ufundisa onke amaJuda ahlala kumazwe eentlanga, ukuba awulahle umthetho kaMosis. Futhi kuthiwa wena uthi makangabolùsi abantwana bawo, bangawalandeli namasiko esiJuda.

27. Xa zaziza kuphela iintsuku ezisixhenxe *zentlambululo, amaJuda athile ephondo laseAsiya ambona uPawulos *esendlwini kaThixo. Avusa uqhushululu ebantwini, ambamba uPawulos,
28. akhwaza esithi: “MaSirayeli, yizani! Nantsi le ndoda ihamba ithetha kakubi ngamaSirayeli, *ngomthetho kaMosis, nangendlu kaThixo, kumntu wonke. Ngoku ize kungcolisa le ndawo ingcwele ngokungenisa iintlanga kuyo.”
