1 Epaphelo yoopacerya koolepenlyaakani nyuwo, Teofilo, kootthokiherya itthu sotheene Yesu opanke awe ni iixuttinhe awe, 2 mpakha nihiku naawelihiwe awe osulu. Owo aawelihiwe nuumala waavaha malakiheryo arummwa aathanlale awe, orumeelaka munepa woowaarya. 3 Nuumala ohaawa, aahiixooniherya wa awiixutti awe ikwaha sinceene, wira awo akupali wira tthiri mukumi. Awo yaahinweha mahiku 40, ni aanilavula myaha sa Omwene wa Muluku. 4 Okathi Yesu aari awe naawo, aahaaruma oriki: “Muhikhume oYerusalemu, masi mulipeleleke omaliheriwa natiri ammanne aya Atiithi, yoowo miyo koohimenryaakani. 5 Mweekeekhai, Yohani aapatisa atthu ni maasi, vano, yavira mahiku vakhaani, nyuwo munrowa opatisiwa ni munepa woowaarya”.
6 Okathi yaatthikenle aya othukumana, awiixutti yaahimukoha Yesu wira: “Pwiya, niireke ti yoola okathi munrowa anyu ottikiherya omwene wIsarayeli?” 7 Vano owo aahiwaakhula oriki: “Atiithi a wiirimu tarina owerya wa othanla okathi itthu sinrowa aya wiiraneya. Nto khahiyo yawinyu osuwela okathi owo. 8 Masi nyuwo munoophwanya ikuru okathi munrowa anyu waakhela munepa woowaarya. Nto munrowa okhala anamoona aka oYerusalemu, oYudeya ni oSamariya wotheene, ni elapo yotheene ya vathi”. 9 Nuumala olavula itthu iya, Yesu aahiwelihiwa osulu, awiixutti awe amoonaka. Nave neeku naahimukhuneela, ahinawerya onweha. 10 Nto okathi yaaweha aya osulu, Yesu owelaka, niinaano-ru yaahikhumelela alopwana anli yaawanre malaya ootteela, yeemela vakhiviru vaya. 11 Alopwana awo yaahihimya wira: “Nyuwo alopwana a oGalileya, xeeni muniwehexexa anyu osulu? Yesu, yoowo aari ni nyuwo, masi vano oroihiwe osulu, onootthika* siisaale munwenhe anyu orowaka osulu”.
12 Arummwa yaahikhuma omwaako Olivera, anatthikela oYerusalemu. Mwaako owo, wookhuveela oYerusalemu. Orakamelana waya, ori etthu yoowiiraka ekiloomo emosa* paahi. 13 Okathi yaaphiyale aya, yaahirowa esaala ya osulu yaamanke aya. Aahikhala weiwo Pedru, Yohani, Yakobo ni Andreya, Filipe ni Tome, Bartolomeyo ni Matheyo, Yakobo mwaana a Alfeyo, Simoni yoowo aihaniwa nanthiti, ni Yuda mwaana a Yakobo. 14 Moowiiraana, otheene aya yaanikhalela nthiti ovekela. Yaahikhala-tho athiyana akina, vamosa ni Maria, maama awe Yesu, ni axihima awe Yesu.
15 Nihiku nimosa, okathi yaathukumanne aya atthu oowiiraka 120, Pedru aaheemela eriyari aya, onahimya wira: 16 “Anna: Davidi okhaliheriwaka ni munepa woowaarya, oolavula eprofesia yaamuhimya Yuda. Nto eprofesia eyo, yaahaana wiiraneya. Yuda owo, ti yoole aavahale malakiheryo ale yanvanre Yesu. 17 Tthiri owo aari mmosa a hiyo ni aavara muteko vamosa ni hiyo. 18 (Mulopwana owo, aahithuma ematta ni musurukhu aaliviwe awe mwaha wa muteko awe wootakhala. Owo aahimora, khumana vathi ni muru, nto erukulu awe yaahiphuleya, ni marupo awe yaahikhumela ota. 19 Atthu otheene a oYerusalemu, yaahisuwela etthu eyo. Siiso, yaahiitthana ematta eyo okhala Hakeldama, ni nttaava naya, eyo piiyo, “Ematta ya Ephome”.) 20 Mweekeekhai, eyo yoolempwa muliivuruni ya Isaalimo wira: ‘Empa awe ethammwe, ni ohikhale-tho onrowa okhala-mo’. Nave ‘mutthu mukina ovare muteko awe’.* 21 Tthiri, vannireerela wira nimuranttelihe mulopwana owo ni mmosa a atthu yaari ni hiyo okathi wotheene Pwiya Yesu aari awe ni hiyo, 22 okhuma okathi Yesu aapatisiwe awe ni Yohani mpakha nihiku aakuxiwe awe eriyari ahu, nto mulopwana owo, ohaana okhala namoona ni hiyo a ohihimuwa wawe”.
23 Nto awiixutti yaahaathanla alopwana anli: Yosefe aihaniwa Barsaba, yoowo-tho aihaniwa Naxariya, vamosa ni Mathiya. 24 Nuumala-vo, awo yaahivekela ahimyaka wira: “Khoo Yehova, nyuwo munisuwela mirima sa atthu otheene, munooniherye ole omuthanlale anyu wa alopwana ala anli, 25 wira aakhele muteko ola ni okhale murummwa, okhala wira Yuda oohiya muteko ola, onatthara ephiro awe”. 26 Tivonto, yaahiwaavererya eparakha alopwana ale, vano aahithanliwa Mathiya. Siiso, Mathiya owo aahikhala* vamosa ni arummwa ale 11.
