nokuzingelwa, nezinhlupheko ezangehlela e -Antiyokiya nase -Ikoniyu naseListra; ukuzingelwa okunje ngakhuthazela kukho , kepha iNkosi yangikhulula kukho konke.

Bathi ukuzwa lokho , bathula, badumisa uNkulunkulu , bathi: Kanti uNkulunkulu unike nabezizwe ukuphendukela ekuphileni. Amakholwa ase-Antiyokiya athiwa amaKristu

Kepha labo ababehlakazekile ngokuhlupheka okwaqala ngoStefanu bahamba, baze bafika eFenike, naseKhupro, nase-Antiyokiya, bengalikhulumi izwi koyedwa, kubaJuda kuphela.

Kodwa kwakukhona abanye kubo, amadoda aseKhupro naseKhurene, abathi befika e-Antiyokiya, bakhuluma nakum aGreki, beshumayela ivangeli ngeNkosi uJesu.

Kepha kwezwakala izwi ngabo ezindlebeni zebandla laseJerusalema ; lase lithuma uBarnaba ukuba ahambe afike e-Antiyokiya;

kwathi esemfumene , wamyisa e -Antiyokiya. Kwase kwenzeka ukuba umnyaka wonke bahlangane ebandleni , befundisa abantu abaningi. Kwaqala e-Antiyokiya ukuba abafundi bathiwe amaKristu. AmaKristu athumela izipho kubazalwane baseJudiya

Ngalezo zinsuku kwehlela e-Antiyokiya abaprofethi bevela eJerusalema.

Kwakukhona e -Antiyokiya ebandleni lakhona abaprofethi nabafundisi : oBarnaba, noSimeyoni othiwa uNigeri , noLukiyu waseKhurene, noManayeni owayondliwe kanye noHerode umtetrarki, noSawulu.

Khona umbusi esebona okwenzekileyo wakholwa , emangaliswa ngesifundiso seNkosi. UPawulu ushumayela e-Antiyokiya lasePhisidiya

Bona ekumukeni kwabo ePherge baya e -Antiyokiya lasePhisidiya, bangena esinagogeni ngosuku lwesabatha, bahlala phansi.

Bekusho lokho, baziyekisa kalukhuni izixuku ukuba zingabahlabeli. UPawulu ushumayela e-Antiyokiya

Kodwa kwafika abaJuda, bevela e-Antiyokiya nase-Ikoniyu; sebezivumisile izixuku bamkhanda uPawulu ngamatshe , bamhudulela ngaphandle komuzi bethi usefile.

Sebelishumayele ivangeli kulowo muzi , bezuzile abafundi abaningi , babuyela eListra, nase-Ikoniyu, nase-Antiyokiya,

Basuka lapho ngomkhumbi , baya e-Antiyokiya, lapho babenikelwe khona emseni kaNkulunkulu kulowo msebenzi asebewufezile.

Khona kwaba kuhle kubaphostoli namalunga nakulo ibandla lonke ukuthumela e -Antiyokiya noPawulu noBarnaba amadoda akhethiweyo phakathi kwabo , uJuda o thiwa uBarsaba noSila , amadoda angabaholi phakathi kwabazalwane,

baloba ngesandla sabo ngokuthi : Abaphostoli namalunga , abazalwane, bayabingelela abazalwane abavela kwabezizwe abase -Antiyokiya, nabaseSiriya, nabaseKhilikhiya.

Ngakho sebemukisiwe behlela e -Antiyokiya, balibutha ibandla , balinika incwadi.

Kodwa oPawulu noBarnaba bahlala e -Antiyokiya, befundisa beshumayela izwi leNkosi kanye nabanye abaningi. Ukwahlukana kukaPawulu noBarnaba
