⁵Mmawa mwake atsogoleri awo, akulu, ndi aphunzitsi a malamulo anasonkhana pamodzi mu Yerusalemu, ⁶pamodzi ndi Anasi mkulu wa ansembe, Kayafa, Yohane, Alekizanda, ndi onse amene anali a banja la mkulu wa ansembe. ^a a v6 Anasi anali atatumikira monga mkulu wa ansembe zaka zapitazo ndipo anali adakali ndi mphamvu yaikulu; Kayafa anali mkulu wa ansembe weniweni wa pa nthawiyo. ⁷Anawaimiritsa pakati, nawafunsa, “Munachita zimenezi ndi mphamvu yanji kapena ndi dzina lanji?”

⁸Ndipo Petro, wodzazidwa ndi Mzimu Woyera, anati kwa iwo, “Inu atsogoleri a anthu ndi akulu, ⁹ngati lero tikufunsidwa za ntchito yabwino imene tinachitira munthu wodwala, mmene iye anachiritsidwira. ¹⁰Dziwani ichi, inu nonse ndi anthu onse a Israeli: m'dzina la Yesu Khristu wa ku Nazareti, amene inu munampachika, amene Atate wathu anamuukitsa kwa akufa—mwa Iye munthu uyu waimirira pamaso panu ali wathanzi. ¹¹Yesu uyu ndi “mwala umene inu amisiri a nyumba munaukana, umene wasanduka mwala wa pa ngodya.” ^b b v11 Mawu otengedwa mu Salimo 118:22. ¹²Chipulumutso sichipezeka mwa wina aliyense; palibe dzina lina pansi pa thambo lopatsidwa pakati pa anthu limene tiyenera kupulumutsidwa nalo.”

¹³Poona kulimba mtima kwa Petro ndi Yohane, ndi kuzindikira kuti anali anthu osaphunzira, wamba, anadabwa ndipo anazindikira kuti anakhala ndi Yesu. ¹⁴Poona munthu wochiritsidwayo ataimirira pamodzi ndi iwo, analibe chonena chotsutsa. ¹⁵Chomwecho anawalamula kuti atuluke mu bwalo la akulu, ndipo anakambirana okhaokha, ¹⁶nati, “Kodi tiwachite chiyani anthu awa? Chozizwitsa chodziwika chachitika kudzera mwa iwo, choonekera kwa onse okhala mu Yerusalemu, ndipo sitingathe kuchikana. ¹⁷Koma kuti tiletse ichi kufalikira kwambiri pakati pa anthu, tiwachenjeze kuti asayankhulenso kwa wina aliyense m'dzina ili.” ¹⁸Anawaitana nawalamula kuti asayankhule kapena kuphunzitsa konse m'dzina la Yesu. ¹⁹Petro ndi Yohane anawayankha nati, “Weruzani nokha ngati nkwabwino pamaso pa Atate wathu kumvera inu koposa Iye. ²⁰Pakuti ife sitingaleke kuyankhula za zimene tinaona ndi kumva.”

²¹Atawaopseza kwambiri, anawamasula, posapeza njira yowalangira chifukwa cha anthu, popeza onse ankalemekeza Atate wathu chifukwa cha zimene zinachitika. ²²Pakuti munthu amene analandira chozizwitsa cha machiritso ichi anali ndi zaka zoposa makumi anayi.

²⁷Pakuti zoonadi, mu mzinda uno, Herode ndi Pontiyo Pilato anasonkhana pamodzi ndi a mitundu ina ndi anthu a Israeli kutsutsana ndi mtumiki wanu woyera Yesu, amene Inu munamudzoza, ²⁸kuti achite chilichonse chimene dzanja lanu ndi cholinga chanu zinatsimikiza kale kuti chichitike. ²⁹Tsopano, Atate, onani kuopseza kwawo, ndipo lolani atumiki anu ayankhule mawu anu molimba mtima konse, ³⁰pamene Inu mutambasula dzanja lanu kuchiritsa, ndipo zizindikiro ndi zozizwitsa zichitike kudzera m'dzina la mtumiki wanu woyera Yesu.
