13. Ekuhambeni kwexesha ukumkani uAgripa nowakwakhe uBhernike baya eKhesariya, beye kuvuyisana noFesto ngokufika kwakhe.
14. Emva kweentsuku bekhona uFesto wachazela ukumkani ngemeko kaPawulos, esithi: “Apha kukho indoda eyashiywa ingumbanjwa nguFelekis.
15. Ndithe xa bendiseJerusalem, ababingeleli abaziintloko bamaJuda nabadala bazisa kum izityholo ngale ndoda ukuba ndiyigwebe.
16. Kodwa ndabaxelela ukuba inkqubo yamaRoma ayivumi ukuba umntu agwetywe engakhange ajongane nabamangaleli bakhe aziphendulele.
17. Bathe ke bakuza apha andachitha xesha, ndathi ngengomso ndalichophela ityala elo, ndathi mayibizwe le ndoda.
18. Abamangali bavela bamtyhola, kodwa kungengazo iindawo ezimbi endandiba bomtyhola ngazo.
19. Kuphela nje yaba yimpikiswano ngonqulo lwabo, nangendoda ethile eyafayo, egama linguYesu, athi yena uPawulos ihleli.
20. Ndithe ngenxa yokungabi nabungqina buphathekayo ngeli tyala, ndaqonda kuPawulos ukuba akangethandi na ukuba eli tyala liye kuthethwa eJerusalem.
21. Kodwa ke uPawulos usuke wabhenela *kuKhesare. Ubone ukuba makahlale engumbanjwa lide ityala lakhe libe nokuviwa nguMhlekazi ngokwakhe. Ke ndathi makagcinwe de ndimthumele kuKhesare.”
22. Wathi uAgripa: “Nam ndingathanda ukukhe ndiyive le ndoda.”“Uza kuyiva ngomso oku,” utshilo uFesto.
23. Ngengomso uAgripa noBhernike bangena bewongekile apho enkundleni, benabaphathi-mkhosi namadoda aphambili apho edolophini. UFesto wathi makubizwe uPawulos, waza ke wangeniswa.
