1  Bhai, a Yeshu gubhatandwibhe bheleketa nabhonji kwa ndango. “Bhandu bhamo bhashinkulima nngunda gwa mishabhibhu. Gubhashenjele ubhigo, gubhaolile liimbo lya minyila shabhibhu, nishenga na nnala. Gubhaapelenje ngunda gula bhaalimanga, nkupinga bhalipilanje, gubhapite mmwanja. 2 Miongwe ja maneng'eno jikaishileje, gubhantumile ntumwa jwabho kubhaalima, akatole shabhibhu ya mauno gabho. 3 Bhai bhaalimanga bhala gubhankamwilenje ntumwa jula, gubhankomilenje, nigubhamminjilenje gwangali shindu. 4 Bhayene nngunda gubhantumile kabhili ntumwa juna, nkali jwenejo gubhanng'uleyenje muntwe, gubhampentekuyenje. 5 Gubhantumile juna, naka jwenejo gubhammulegenje. Bhayene nngunda gubhaatumilenje bhananji bhabhagwinji, bhana bhashinkwaakomanga na bhananji gubhaabhulegenje. 6 Bhai gwalepeshe jumope, mwanagwabho jwa jika jubhammpingaga. Kungai gubhantumile jwenejo bhalinkuti, ‘Shibhannjogopanje mwanangu.’ 7 Ikabheje bhaalimanga bhala, gubhabhalanjilenenje kuti, ‘Jweneju apinga tola ulishi, bhai tummulaje nkupinga ulishigo, ubhe gwetu!’ 8 Bhai gubhankamwilenje, nikummulaga, gubhannjailenje kunyenje nngunda gwa mishabhibhu gula.”

9 “Bhai bhayene ngunda shibhatende nndi? Shibhaishe nikwabhulaganga bhaalimanga bhala, na nngunda gula nikwapanganga bhandu bhana. 10 Bhuli nkanabheshomanga yenei Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo? Kuti,

12 Bhai bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila, gubhapinjilenje kwaakamula, pabha bhamumanyinji kuti lwene lutangolo, lwaalugulangaga bhalabhonji. Ikabheje gubhajogopenje lugwinjili lwa bhandu. Bhai gubhaaleshilenje, gubhajabhulengene.

13 Bhai, Mapalishayo bhananji na bhandunji bha a Elode, gubhatumilwenje bhakaateganje a Yeshu, kwa malobhe gabho. 14 Bhakaikangananjeje gubhaalugulilenje, “Mmajiganya, tumumanyi kuti mmwe mmanguja, na gunkubheleketa ga kweli, na mmangali luagu, ikabhe nnajiganya ya kweli, ya mpanda gwa a Nnungu. Bhuli, ilipinjikwa kulipa koli kwa a Kaishali eu nng'oo? Twaape koli eu tunape.”

15 Ikabheje a Yeshu bhagumanyi ugulumba gwabhonji, gubhaalugulilenje “Pakuti nnaninganga? Mmbanganjeti dinalijo nijilole.” 16 Gubhaapelenje. Bhai gubhaabhushiyenje, “Jene pishaji na majandikoga, gakeni?” Gubhajangwilenje, “Ga a Kaishali.”

17 Bhai a Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Ya a Kaishali, mwaapanganje a Kaishali, na ya a Nnungu, mwaapanganje a Nnungu.” Bhai, gubhakanganigwenje kwa kaje kwa shene shijangulosho.

18 Bhai Mashadukayo bhalugulanga kuti kwakwapi kuyuka kwa bhandunji, gubhaajendelenje a Yeshu, nikwabhuya bhalinkutinji, 19 “Mmajiganya, Mmalajilo ga a Musha, bhashikutujandishila nnei, ‘Mundu awaga nikunneka nkagwe gwangali kolela mwana, mpwakwe antole jwene nshitengajo, ankolele mwana nkulugwe.’ 20 Bhai bhashinkupagwanga bhanabhalume shabha, bha likaja limo. Jwankulu gwalombile, gwawile gwangali kukolela mwana. 21 Jwabhili gwantolile na jwalakwe gwawile gwangali kukolela mwana, nneyo peyo nkali jwa tatu. 22 Bhai bhanaabhowe shabha, gubhawilenje gwangali kuleka mwana. Bhai kungai bhakongwe nabhalabho gubhawile. 23 Bhai lyubha lya yuka, bhakongwe bhala shibhabhe bhakeni? Pabha bhowe shabha bhaalombilenje.”

24 A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Bhuli mmanganyanji nnaobhanga, kwa ligongo lya nngagamanya majandiko ga Ukonjelo, na wala mashili ga a Nnungu. 25 Pabha pushibhayukanje bhandu bhowe, kukapagwa kulomba wala kulombwa, ikabhe shibhabhanganje malinga ashimalaika bha kunnungu. 26 Na ga yuka bhawilenje, mwangashomanga nshitabhu sha a Musha, majandiko gataya ga shitekete shakolelaga moto shila? A Nnungu pubhaabhalanjile a Musha kuti, ‘Nne a Nnungu bha a Bhulaimu na a Ishaka na a Yakobho.’ 27 Kwa nneyo bhenebho nngabha a Nnungu bha bhawilenje, ikabhe a Nnungu bha bhakotonji. Bhai mmanganya nnaobhanga kwa kaje.”

28 Bhai bhaajiganya bhamo bha shalia, bhaapali pubhataukanganaga a Yeshu na ashimashadukayo, gubhamanyi kuti a Yeshu bhashijangula ukoto, kwanneyo gubhaabhushiye a Yeshu, “Jei amuli jili jikulungwa kupunda yowe?”

29 A Yeshu gubhaajangwile, “Jikulungwa ni ajino, ‘Upilikane ugwe Ishilaeli! Bhakulungwa a Nnungu bhetu, ni Bhakulungwa bhamope. 30 Kwa nneyo Mwaapinje Bhakulungwa a Nnungu bhenu, kwa ntima gwenu gowe, na kwa mbumu yenu yowe, na kwa lunda lwenu lowe, na kwa mashili genu gowe.’ 31 Na jabhili jakwe, ni ajino, ‘Mumpinje ntami nnjenu malinga shinkwiipinga mmayene.’ Jakwa amuli jina jikulungwa kupunda yenei.”

32 Bhai bhaajiganya bha Shalia ya a Musha bhala gubhashite, “Mmaajiganya, penepo mmelekete ukoto, kuti a Nnungu bhamope, bhakwa bhana ikabhe bhenebho pebho. 33 Kwa nneyo, inapinjikwa kwaapinga bhenebho, kwa ntima gowe, na kwa lunda lowe, na kwa mashili gowe, na kumpinga ntami nnjenu, malinga shinkwipinga mmayene. Pabha lyeneli ni lya mmbone kupunda kwaapa a Nnungu indu ya mbepei ya tiniya na indu yowe ya bhishila.”

34 A Yeshu bhakabhoneje kuti bhene bhandubho bhashijangula kwa lunda, gubhaalugulile, “Mmwe, mwangataliya na Upalume gwa a Nnungu.” Bhai tandubhila penepo, jwakwa mundu alinjile kabhili, kwaabhuya shindu.

35 Bhai a Yeshu bhali nkujiganya ku Likanisha, gubhabhushiye, “Pakuti bhaajiganya bha Shalia bhakutinji, a Kilishitu Bhana bhabho a Daudi? 36 Na a Daudi bhayene, bhakagumbayweje na mbumu jwa ukonjelo gubhashite,

37 “A Daudi bhayene bhanakwashema a Kilishitu Bhakulungwa. Bhai ikomboleka bhuli, a Kilishitu kubha bhana bhabho?” Na bhandu bhabhagwinji, bhatendaga kwaapilikanishiyanga kwa nonyelwa.

38 A Yeshu mmajiganyo gabho gubhashite, “Mwiteiganje na bhaajiganya bha shalia, bhapita timbililanga mmashoko, bhali bhawetenje kanshu yabhonji yaileu, nkupinga bhakomaywanje kwa ishima na bhandunji, 39 bhatamangana mwitengu ya mmujo, ya nshinagogi na nkalamu. 40 Bhanapokonyolanga indu ya bhanabhakongwe bhashitenga, akuno bhalikwitembanga kujuga kwa malobhe gamagwinji! Bhenebho shibhajiye ukumulwanga kwa mboteko ya kaje.”

41 Bhai a Yeshu bhashinkutama tome na shibhiko sha ekalu. Bhatenda kwaalolesheyanga bhandunji, pubhatagangaga mmbiya nshibhiko. Matajili bhabhagwinji gubhatajilenje mmbiya yaigwinji. 42 Bhai gubhaishe bhakongwe bhamo bhashitenga bhalaga, gubhatajile shilingi ibhili. 43 Penepo a Yeshu gubhaashemilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho, gubhaalugulilenje, “Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, bhakongwe bhashitenga bhaalagabha, bhashitaga kupunda bhananji bhowe nshibhiko sha Likanisha. 44 Pabha bhananji bhowe ibhatajilenje ipundile ya indu yabhonji, ikabheje bhakongwebha, nkali nkulaga kwabhomo, bhashitaga yowe ibhakwete, bhashitaga nkali ibhakulupalilaga.”
