6 Nena aayapostoli naakuluntu yegongalo oya gongala, ya kundathane oshinima shika. 7 Ano sho ya kundathana ethimbo ele, Petrus okwa thikama e ta ti: “Aamwameme, omu shi shi nawa kutya pomasiku gopetameko Kalunga okwa hogolola ndje mokati keni okuuvithila aapagani elaka etoye, opo ye li uve noyi itaale. 8 Nokuli Kalunga ngoka a tseya omadhiladhilo gaantu ayehe, oku ulike kutya ota taamba naapagani wo, sho e ya pe Ombepo Ondjapuki, ngaashi naanaa e yi tu pe wo. 9 Kalunga oku ulike kutya kape na nando eyooloko lyasha pokati ketu nayo. Onkee okwa dhimi po oondjo dhawo, oshoka oyi itaala. 10 Omolwashike ano ngashingeyi mwa hala ishewe okuhinda Kalunga, sho tamu tsike ooitaali omutenge omudhigu komapepe? Omutenge tuu ngoka tse yene nootate twa nyengwa oku gu humbata. 11 Tse otwi itaala kutya otatu hupithwa kesilohenda lyOmuwa Jesus, osho nayo wo.”

Ngaashi enyolo tali ti:
16 ‘Konima yaambika otandi ka galuka natango,

Ngame notandi ka tungulula egumbo lyaDavid, ndyoka lya teka po.
Otandi ka fululula omikanka nomakulukuma galyo.
Otandi ke ga tungulula ishewe.
17 Nena aantu yalwe ayehe otaa ka konga Omuwa,

18 Omuwa ngoka a tseyithile nale aantu oshinima shika, osho ta ti.’ ”
19 Jakob okwa tsikile okupopya ta ti: “Omadhiladhilo gandje ogo ngaka: Inatu tsikeni aapagani uudhigu, ngele taa itedhulula notaye ya kuKalunga. 20 Ihe naa nyolelwe ashike ontumwafo, ya lombwelwe kutya naa idhilike iikulya ayihe mbyoka ya yambelwa iikalunga, oshoka oya nyata. Osho wo naa idhilike oluhondelo, onyama yoshinamwenyo sha pondwa, nombinzi. 21 Oshoka okuza koomvula dhonalenale ompango yaMoses oya kala hayi leshwa kehe Esabati moosinagoga adhihe dhAajuda, noohapu dhe ohadhi uvithwa miilando ayihe.”
Ontumwafo ya nyolelwa ooitaali mboka ya za maapagani
22 Nena aayapostoli, aakuluntu yegongalo negongalo alihe oya tokola okuhogolola mokati kawo aalumentu yamwe, ye ya tume kuAntiokia pamwe naPaulus naBarnabas. Oyo oya hogolola mo ihe Judas, ngoka hi ithanwa Barsabas, naSilas. Aalumentu mbaka yaali oya li ya simanekwa kaakwanegongalo ayehe. 23 Aayapostoli naakuluntu oya nyolele ihe aakwanegongalo yokuAntiokia ontumwafo noye yi pe Judas naSilas, ye yi fale ko. Ontumwafo oya li ya nyolwa ngeyi: “Otse aayapostoli naakuluntu yegongalo, ooitaali pamwe nane, otatu kundu ooitaali ooyakwetu ayehe yomuAntiokia, muSiria nomuKilikia, mboka ya za muupagani. 24 Otse otu uvu kutya aalumentu yamwe yomutse, nando inatu ya tuma, oye mu pukitha noku mu piyaganeka noohapu dhawo. 25 Onkee ano sho twa gongala notwa kundathana, otwa tokola okuhogolola mo aalumentu yamwe yomutse, tu ya tume kune. Oyo otaye ya pamwe nookuume ketu aaholike Barnabas naPaulus, 26 mboka ya hupula oomwenyo dhawo omolwoshilonga shOmuwa gwetu Jesus Kristus. 27 Ano otatu mu tumine Judas naSilas, opo ye mu lombwele kokana iinima mbyoka tatu yi mu nyolele montumwafo. 28 Tse otwa tokola mewiliko lyOmbepo Ondjapuki, twaa mu tsike we nando omutenge gulwe. Omalombwelo getu ge na oshilonga ogo ngaka: 29 Inamu lya iikulya mbyoka ya yambelwa iikalunga, ombinzi nonyama yoshinamwenyo shoka sha pondwa ne mu idhilike oluhondelo. Otamu opaleke, ngele tamu idhilike iinima mbika. Kalii po nawa!”
30 Aatumwa oya lalekwa e taa yi kuAntiokia.

1 Ovandu tjiva va zire kehi ra Judea ave ya kOantiokie, nu ave utu okuhonga ovakambure ave tja: “Eṋe tjinangara kamu nakusukarekwa otja kOmatwako wa Moses, kamu nokuyenena okuhupisiwa komuinyo.” 2 Paulus na Barnabas va patasana otjiṋa hi tjinene kuna ovandu mba, notji pa tyewa kutja Paulus na Barnabas novakambure ovakwao tjiva mOantiokie ve yende kOjerusalem okutwara ombata ndji kovaapostele novatarere wombongo.
3 Nowo tji va za nokuhindwa i ombongo mouyenda wawo arire tji va tuurunga ehi ra Fenisie nora Samaria amave yende amave serekarere kutja imba mbe he ri Ovajuda va tanaukira ku Ndjambi. Ombuze ndji ya yorokisa ovakambure avehe tjinene. 4 Nu tji ve ya mOjerusalem ave yakurwa nawa i ombongo novaapostele novatarere. Nowo arire tji ve ve serekarerere avihe Ndjambi mbya tjitire na wo. 5 Nungwari ovakambure tjiva mba ri ouṋepo wotjira tjOvafarisei va sekama ave tja: “Imba mbe he ri Ovajuda nu mba tanauka mave sokusukarekwa nokuraerwa kutja ve ṱakamise Omatwako wa Moses.”
6 Ovaapostele novatarere va worongana okuhungirira otjiṋa hi. 7 Nu tji va za nokupatasana orure, Petrus arire tja sekama a tja: “Vakwetu, mamu tjiwa kutja omayuva omengi nga kapita Ndjambi we ndji toorora mokati keṋu okuzuvarisa Ombuze Ombwa ku imba mbe he ri Ovajuda wina, kokutja owo ve zuve nu ve kambure. 8 Ndjambi ngu tjiwa omeripura wovandu avehe wa yakura imba mbe he ri Ovajuda, indu tje ve pa Ombepo Ondjapuke otja tjinga e i yandja ku eṱe. 9 Eye ka twire po ombangu pokati ketu na wo; we ve isira ourunde wawo tjinga ava ri nongamburiro. 10 Nambano okutjavi tji mamu vanga okurora Ndjambi mokutwa ko omutenge kovakambure, ootate mukururume na eṱe mbu tu hi na indu twa sorere okuutjinda? 11 Eṱe twa kambura nu twa yamwa i otjari tja Muhona Jesus tjimuna owo tji va kambura nave yamwa.”
12 Ombongo aihe tjandje nai ya mwina ngunda amai puratene ku Barnabas na Paulus tji mave serekarere ovihimise noviraisiro avihe Ndjambi mbya tjitire na wo mokati kaimba mbe he ri Ovajuda. 13 Tji va mana okuhungire, Jakobus a tja: “Purateneye ku ami, vakwetu! 14 Simon wa zu nokumuraera nambano nai kutja Ndjambi wa raisa ombango ye yokuyakura imba mbe he ri Ovajuda indu tje ritoororera otjiwaṋa mokati kawo. 15 Omambo wovaprofete maye i kumwe motjiṋa hi otja tji pa tjangwa momatjangwa wawo:

18 Muhona ngwa tjivisire oviṋa mbi rukuru ma tja nao.’ ”
19 Jakobus wa hungira komurungu a tja: “Otja koumune wandje, ami opu me zu okutja atu ha yandja ouzeu ku imba mbe he ri Ovajuda mbu mave ritanaurire ku Ndjambi. 20 Nungwari ngatu ve tjangere orutuu rwokuveraera kutja ave ha ri ovikurya ovihakohoke, ovyo tjinga avya punguhirwa oomukuru vovisenginina, ave ha nanukire otuvakiro nokutja ave ha ri otjipuka tji tja siniwa, nombinḓu wina ave ha ri. 21 Orondu Omatwako wa Moses ye resewa aruhe okuza korukuru mozosinagoge mesabata arihe peke, nomambo we ye zuvarisiwa movihuro avihe.”
Orutuu kovakambure mbe he ri Ovajuda
22 Nu ovaapostele novatarere nombongo aihe arire tji va tye kutja pe toororwe ovarumendu tjiva mombongo nu ve hindwe kOantiokie puna Paulus na Barnabas. Owo va toorora ovarumendu vevari, mba yozikirwe tjinene i ovakambure, okutja oJudas ngu ku za Barsabas na Silas, 23 nu ave hindi orutuu ndwi puna wo:
“Eṱe ovakweṋu, ovaapostele novatarere, matu hindi ombinika kovakambure ovakwetu avehe imba mbe he ri Ovajuda nu mbu mwa tura mOantiokie na Sirie na Silisie. 24 Twa zuva kutja ovarumendu tjiva mba zire kombongo yetu ve yokumupa ouzeu nokumukurungisa nomambo ngu ve hi na indu va raererwe i eṱe okuyekuhungira. 25 Opu twa woronganena nu nomutima umwe atuhe atu zuvasana okutoorora ovarumendu tjiva nokuvehinda ku eṋe.

30 Ovahindwa va tumwa, nowo ave i kOantiokie. MOantiokie owo va kaworonganisa ombongo aihe yovakambure nu ave ve pe indwi orutuu. 31 Novandu tji vaza nokururesa, ve urisirwe nenyanda mena rOmbuze ombwa ndje ve yanḓiparisa. 32 Nu Judas na Silas, owo oveni hapo tjinga ava ri ovaprofete, va hungira orure kuna ovakambure amave ve yanḓiparisa nokuvezeuparisa. 33-34 Nowo tji va za nokukara omayuva tjiva mOantiokie, ovakambure arire tji ve ve hindi ve yaruke mohange, nowo ave yaruka ku imba mbe ve hindire.
35 Paulus na Barnabas va kara omayuva tjiva mOantiokie, puna ovakambure ovakwao ovengi amave hongo ovandu nokuzuvarisa embo ra Muhona.
Ouyenda outjavari: Paulus na Barnabas mave haṋika
36 Kombunda yanao Paulus wa tja nai ku Barnabas: “Ngatu yaruke tu katare ovakambure ovakwetu movirongo avihe mu twa zuvarisire embo ra Muhona, nu tu katjiwe kutja owo ve ri vi.” 37 Barnabas wa vangere kutja owo ve twaerere Johanes Markus, 38 nungwari Paulus ee ripura kutja kasemba okumutwaerera, eye tjinga e ha karere puna wo nga komaandero wouyenda wawo, nungwari tjinga a ri a yaruka nu e ve esire mOpamfilie. 39 Pa kara ombata onene tjinene pokati kawo, nu arire tji va haṋika: Barnabas wa toora Markus nave kondo okuvare okuyenda kOsiprus. 40 Nu Paulus we ritoororera Silas nu ave i tji va za nokuvirikiziwa i ovakambure motjari tja Muhona. 41 Eye wa tuurunga ehi ra Sirie nora Silisie ama zeuparisa ozombongo.
