(Zingatilayi: N'stari obho 7 Lisiasi, afisa, akahida na akan'tola kwa nghofu mu mabhoko gha tete, ujhelepi mu nakala sinofu sya majhandiku gha muandi). 8 Lekan'kotayi Paulo kuhusu mambo agha, hata wibetakusimanyisya ni khenu gani tun'takili.” 9 Bhayahudi ni bhene bhakan'takila Paulo, bhakajobha kujha mambo agha gha bhukweli. 10 Liwali bho ampungili kibhoko ili Paulo alongelayi, Paulo ajibili, “Nimanyili kujha kwa miaka mingi ujhe ghwa mwamuzi ghwa taifa ele, na nijhe ni furaha kwijhelesya nejhoni kwa bhebhe. 11 Wibhwesya kuhakikisya kujha ghapetilepi zaidi jha magono kumi na mbili tangia nikwelili kulota kuabudu Yerusalemu. 12 Na bhobhanikolili mu hekalu, nabishenelepi ni munu jhejhioha, na nabhombi lepi fuju pa mkutano, wala ku masinagogi wala mugati mu mji; 13 na bhibhwesya lepi kuhakikisha kwa bhebhe mashitaka gha bhakanitakila dhidi jha nene. 14 Ila nikiri e'le kwa bhebhe, jha kujha kwa njela jhela ambayo bhakajhikuta dhehebu, kwa njela jhejhu ejhu nikantumikila K'yara ghwa dadi jhitu. Nene ne mwaminifu kwa ghoha mu sheria ni maandikhu gha manabii. 15 Nijhe ni bhujasiri bholabhola kwa K'yara ambabho hata abhu nabhene bhakaulendela, kuhida kwa ufufuo kwa bhafu, kwa bhoha bhenye haki na bhabhabelikujha ni haki kabhele; 16 ni kwa e'le, nibhomba mbombo ili nijhelayi ni dhamiri jhajhibelikujha ni hatia mbele jha K'yara ni mbele jha bhanu kupetela mambo ghoha. 17 Henu baada jha miaka mingi nihidili kuleta msaada kwa taifa lya nene ni zawadi jha hela. 18 Bho nibhombi naha, Bhayahudi fulani bha Asia bhanikolili mugati mu sherehe jha utakaso mugati mu hekalu, bila likundi lya bhanu wala ghasia. 19 Bhanu abha ambabho jhilondeka bhajhelayi mbele jha bhebhe henu apa na bhajobhayi khela kyabhajhenaku juu jha nene kama bhajhe ni lilobhi lyolyoha. 20 Au bhanu abha bhene na bhajobhayi likosa leleku lyabhalibhwene kwa nene bho nijhemili palongolo pa baraza lya kiyahudi; 21 Isipokujha kwa ndabha jha khenu kimonga kyanakijobhili kwa sauti bho nijhemili katikati jha bhene, 'kwandabha jha ufufuo bhwa bhafu muenga mukanihukumu.” 22 Feliki ajhele ataarifibhu kinofu kuhusu njela, ni kubhuairisha mkutano. Akajobha, “Lisia jemedari paibeta kuhida pasi kuhoma Yerusalemu nibetakubisya maamuzi dhidi jha mashitaka gha muenga.” 23 Ndipo akaamuru akida andendayi Paulo, ili ajhelayi ni nafasi na sijhi munu wakubhabesya bharafiki bha muene bhasin'tangatili wala kun'gendela. 24 Baada jha magono kadhaa, Feliki akakerebhuka ni Drusila n'dala munu jha ajhe Myahudi, akalaghisya kun'kuta Paulo ni kupelekesya kuhomela kwa muene habari sya imani mugati mwa Kristu Yesu. 25 Ila Paulo bho ajhele ijadiliana ni muene kuhusu haki kujha ni kiasi ni hukumu jhajhibeta kuhida, Feliki akakabha hofu akajibu, “lotayi patali kwa henu, ila nikakabhayi muda kabhele, nibetakukuta.” 26 Muda bhobhuobhu, ategemili kujha Paulo ibeta kumpela hela kwa hiyo ankutili mara simehele kulongela naku. 27 Ila miaka mibhele jhajhipetili, Porkio Festo akajha Liwali baada jha Feliki, ila Feliki alondeghe kwipendekesya kwa bhayahudi, efyo akandeka Paulo chini jha uangalizi.
