19. Ndathi mna, Nkosi, bayazi kakuhle bona ukuba mna ndandibafaka entolongweni, ndibatyabula kuzo zonke izindlu zesikhungu abo bakholwayo kuwe;
20. naxeshikweni laphalazwayo igazi likaStefano, ingqina lakho, ndaye ndimi kufuphi nam, ndikuthakazela ukusikwa kwakhe, ndizigcinile iingubo zabo babemsika.
21. Yathi kum, Hamba; ngokuba mna ndiya kukuthuma kude kwiintlanga.
22. Bamphulaphula ke, wada wafika kwelo lizwi, baza baphakamisa izwi labo besithi, Msuseni emhlabeni umntu onje; kuba akufanelekile ukuba adle ubomi.
23. Ke kaloku, bakubon' ukuba bayankqangaza, belahla iingubo zabo, bephosa uthuli esibhakabhakeni,
24. wathi umthetheli-waka, makangeniswe enqabeni yomkhosi; wathi makancinwe ngekatsi, ukuze azi ukuba kungathuba lini na ukuba benjenje ukunkqangaza ngaye.
25. Ke kaloku, xa bamolulayo ngeentambo, wathi uPawulos kumthethelikhulu obemi khona, Kuvumelekile na, ukuba nimtyakatye umntu ongumRoma, engagwetywanga nokugwetywa?
26. Evile ke umthetheli-khulu, waya wabika kumthetheli-waka, esithi, Yilumkele into oza kuyenza; kuba lo mntu ungumRoma.
27. Weza ke umthetheli-waka wathi kuye, Ndixelele, ungumRoma na?
28. Wathi ke yena, Ewe. Waphendula umthetheli-waka wathi, Mna ukungeniswa kwam kulo mzi waseRoma, ndakuzuza ngenani elikhulu. Wathi ke uPawulos. Ke mna ndizelwe ndínako.
29. Basuka kuye kwaoko ngoko abo babeza kumncina; woyika ke nomthetheli-waka akuqonda ukuba ungumRoma, nangenxa yokuba ebembophile.
30. Ke kaloku ngengomso, enga angayazi inyaniso yento amangalelwe ngayo ngamaYuda, wamkhulula ezintanjeni, wathi, mabeze ababingeleli abakhulu, nayo yonke intlanganiso yabo yamatyala; waza wamhlisa uPawulos, wammisa phakathi kwabo.
