Inakhalhaka hookokwaa urimeelha ubaharini, ikekhiaye khinonhiya wiira alhame wo uthepa!” 5Nansho Napaolo nkayaakukuttelha inwaa ilhe vamooroni, ahiwereiyaka ata vakani. 6Attu alhe yaari awehereraka wiira anochakhulha moono ama anowulhuwa ni ukhwa. Yaweherereke chinene wohoona ittu iriyoothe yaapattaka Napaolo, nkayaarukunusha irusho chaya, nkayeera wiira, ulha phi mmoka o milhuku.

Yayo yahonipochera rata, nkanaakhalha alheto aya wo mahuku mararu. 8Athumwanaya Napabulo ayo yaari vanlhilhini awereiyaka itekusha ni uharisha iphome. Napaolo yahorwaa uwaawehani.

Ni vawo vaachokholha ihu nkwaha tho, yahoniwelhihera mmeelini mashurupu yaathanana ihu.
Nkwaha wo uthama Umalta ukelha Urumi

Napaolo voonne aya, yahonshukuru Nlhuku, nrima nkawaahokolhelha chinene.
Napaolo Urumi
16Naphiyeke Urumi Napaolo yahovahiya nipesha no ukhalha vekha aya ni owalhita mmoka.
17Yavireke mahuku mararu, Napaolo yaheehana vamoka aholhelhi a Ayahudi o vavalhe. Wakumaaniyeke, Napaolo nkayeerelha, “Ashilhoko aka Aisraeli nanaka, inakhalhaka mii akaapannge ittu iriyoothe yo uhilhoka wa attu ihu mena uvinga malhemalhelho a manyaapwiiya ihu, kahottukiya u Yerusalemu ulhe nkakeeshiya mmiononi mwa Arumi. 18Yakikohakoheke ni woona wiira khakaattenke ittu iriyoothe, Arumi yahothanana ukihiya ukhalhawaya khayonne nlhatu uriyoothe. 19Nansho Ayahudi akina vaavinga aya yoyo mwaha uyo, mii kahoona mbaya kivekelhe irufaa yo urweehiya wa Nakaisari, anakhalhaka khakaarina milhatu cho weerelha attu o nikosho naka. 20Yoyo phi nlhatu etu wo uvekelha woonana ni waareriha ni inyu mwaatti, ukhalhawaya kittukiye chii mittondoro chii wo nlhatu no uyo nokhulhuvelhiya ni attu o Uisraeli.”
21Attu ayo nkayaakhulha, “Hiyaano khaninapochera iwarakha iriyoothe ikhumme Uyudea, mena khaawo nlhoko ihu riyoothe wiihilhe va mwaha uriyoothe ama uhimiacha ittu iriyoothe yo uhilhoka inowaachani. 22Nansho ninowoona inookhalha mbaya vano niiwe nlhove ninyu mwaanene ni mwaha urina inyu. Ukhalhawaya nihochuwelha wiira kila vakittu yoyo mphingo winyu uyo uri uvingiyaka.”
23Paahi, nkaneeshiya nihuku no ukumaana, attu enchi nkayaawa wowo waakhalha aya Napaolo uwo. No wichishu nno totoro Napaolo yahaahimiachera nttenga waarina aya vachulhu Imwene ya Nlhuku. Nkayeettuchiha attu wiira anrumelhelhe Yesu wo woopusha Malhehero a ashinna Musa ni malhove alhepiye ni Anamilhohi a Nlhuku. 24Attu akina yahorumelhelha malhove aya, nansho akina khayaarumelhenlhe. 25Paahi attu nkayaathamacha, ahiiwananaka ashineneru, Napaolo venre aya, “Ikekhiaye Iphumu ya Nlhuku ahaahimeria manyaapwiiya inyu wo iphiro ya anamilhohi a Nlhuku ashinna Isaya!”
26Eeraka,
“Nrweeke wa alha attu alha mwaahimerieke,
Wo ikekhiaye wiiwa nnowiiwa, nansho khannochuwelha inohimiya,
Uweha nnooweha, nansho khannoona.
27Ukhalhawaya irusho chaya chihophupuwalha,
Ahotiyelha maaru aya, ahohichilha miitho aya.
Ama, yanoona wo miitho aya, yaaneewa wo maaru aya,
Yanchuwelha wo irusho chaya,
Ni ukirukunuwelha,
Ni mii kinowaalhamiha.” Nlhuku phi neera awe.
28Yamalheke, Napaolo nkayeera, “Nchuwelheke etu, nttenga wa Nlhuku vachulhu noopo uhorweehiya wa attu ahiri Ayahudi. Yayo anokowiiwelhelha!”
29Napaolo amalhiheke wulhumacha yayo, Ayahudi yahothamacha uno athepaka uhiiwanana ashineneru.
30Wo iyaakha pilhi Napaolo yaari akhalhaka waari inupa yaashimme aya, aapocheraka attu onkhaye yaarwaa uwaashikuriani. 31Yaari ahimiachaka Imwene ya Nlhuku ni wiittuchiha wo ushipa mwaha wa Athithi Yesu Kuristo, ihikhalhaka yo waachiichiha.
