1 Tsakukala ne wanu iwalawile Yudeya wapfika Antokiya, na wandusa kuwalangulitsa iwanu iwamtoghole Yesu, wawalongela, “Ka ng'amkwingila ngoma ka pfalaghitse Musa ng'amdaha kukombolighwa.” 2 Imbuli ino iwatenda Pauli na Balinaba wesonge nawo. Apfo Pauli na Balinaba wasaghulighwa hamwe ne iwanu wangi wa Antiyokiya iwamtoghole Yesu waghende Yerusalemu kuwona iwatumighwa ne iwabala kwaajili ye imbuli ayo.

12 Apfo mtingano wose we iwanu tsaghunyamala wawategheletsa Balinaba na Pauli wowalongela pfihulo na pfinu pfa kukangawatsa pfayatendile Imulungu kubitila wawo kwe iwanu iwali si Wayahudi. 13 Hawamalitse kulonga, Jakobu kalonga, “Ndughu tsangu mnitegheletse. 14 Simoni tsakatulongela Imulungu pfayawatendele iwanu iwali si Wayahudi aho mwanduso, tsakawasaghula wangi wawo wawe iwanu wake. 15 Imbuli tse manabii we Imulungu tseghala ghendo ne imbuli ino, ka Ghamaandiko pfagholonga,

22 Kuya iwatumighwa ne iwabala hamwe ne kingili lye iwanu wose iwomtoghola Kiristu walamla kuwasaghula iwanu mghati mwawo na kuwaghala Antiyokiya hamwe na Pauli na Balinaba. Apfo wawasaghula Yuda iyakemighwe Barisaba, na Sila. Awo tsawakala pfilongotsi we iwanu iwamtoghole Yesu. 23 Waweng'a ibaluwa ino,

“Twetwe iwatumighwa ne iwabala ne iwandughu tsenu twowalamsani mwemwe iwanu iwali si Wayahudi bae imumtoghola Imulungu yamli ako Antiyokiya, Siriya na Kilikiya. 24 Kwaapfila tuhulika ka iwanu wangi iwalawile kuna twetwe wawahanganya na waitsufa mimoyo yenu kwa chawalongile, lekeni ng'awatumighwe na twetwe bae. 25 Apfo twitingana hamwe, tulamla kusaghula iwanu na kuwaghala kuna mwemwe hamwe na sale tsetu tsina Balinaba na Pauli, 26 iwanu iwalapfile ughima wawo kwa taghwa lye Imtwatsa Yesu Kiristu. 27 Apfo twowatuma Yuda na Sila kuna mwemwe. Awo watsowalongela iwenyegho acho chatumwandikileni. 28 Ghumuhe Mwenzeluka katulangusa tuleke kuwatwika mtsigho kubita aghano ghambamighwa mghamanye, 29 mleke ukuja ipfijo ipfitambikighwe kwe ipfinyagho, mleke ukunwa idamu, na mleke ukuja chibudu, na mleke utsinzi. Mtsotenda ghoya mng'aghaleka agho. Mkale tseghamba.”

36 Haghabitile matsuwa mengi, Pauli kamlongela Balinaba, “Leka tuye kuchughu tukawalole wayetu iwamtoghole Yesu mne kaye tsose tsatuwapetele imbuli ye Imtwatsa na kuwona pfawoghendelela.” 37 Balinaba tsakabama yamsole Yohane iyakemighwe Maliki waghende naye. 38 Lekeni Pauli ng'abamile bae waghende na Maliki, kwaapfila tsakawaleka akula Pamfiliya na ng'aghendelele ne isang'ano hamwe nawo. 39 Kuya wesonga ng'ani mbaka weghola. Balinaba kamsola Maliki, wadina mne mnumbwi waghenda Kupulo. 40 Naye Pauli kamsaghula Sila, ne iwanu iwamtoghole Kiristu wa hanu hala hawamalitse kuwalombela uluso we Imtwatsa, woka. 41 Tsakabita Siriya na Kilikiya kughaghuma ghumoyo makanisa.
