1 Kayi Yesu walatatika kwamba kulyendibo mu mikoshanyo, walambeti, “Palikuba muntu naumbi walalima libala lya minyansa. walebaka luba kushunguluka libala, walemba cisengu cakutyaninamo minyansa ne kwibaka lupingwe. Libala ili walalibwelekesha ku balimi, nendi walaya kucishi cimbi. 2 Mpocalashika cindi ca kutebula, mwine libala walatuma musebenshi wakendi ku balimi mbwalabwelekesha, kwambeti bamupeko bisepo bya mulibala lisa. 3 Nomba nabo balamwikata, ne kumuma ne kumutandanya, walabwelelako wabula ciliconse mu makasa. 4 Mwine libala walatumako kayi musebenshi wakendi naumbi. Nomba uyu balamutoba luma mu mutwi ne kumucobola cipesha nsoni. 5 Kayi mwine libala walatumako naumbi, uyu balamushina. Kayi walatumako nabambi nabo balabauma, kayi nabambi balashina. 6 Kwalashala muntu umo, mwanendi ngwalikusuna cikamba. Pakupwililisha mwine libala usa walatumako mwanendi,” Ne kwambeti, “Mwaname nibenga bamupe bulemu.” 7 Nomba nabo balimi balatatika kumufwiya ne kwambeti, “Uyu endiye eshakapyane buboni bwa baishi, neco katumushinani kwambeti bukabe bwetu, 8 Balamutanya, ne kumushina, ne kumuwala kunsa kwa luba lwa libala.”

9 “Inga mwine libala nakenseconi? Lakenga kubashina balimi bonse ne kubwelekesha libala lyakendi kubalimi nabambi.” 10 Sena nkamuna mubelengapo Mabala alambangeti,

12 Balelekesha kucana nshila ya kumwikatilamo, nomba balatina kufula kwa bantu, pakwinga balenshibeti wambangendibo mumukoshanyo, nomba balamushiya Yesu ne kuya.

13 Bafalisi nabambi ne ba mucipani ca Helodi balatumwa kuli Yesu kwambeti bamutape mukwamba kwakendi. 14 Mpobalashika kuli Yesu balambeti, “Bashikwiyisha tucinshi, kwambeti mukute kwamba cakubinga, kayi nkamukute kubona cilikunsa kwa muntu, nkamukute kusakamaneti uyu niyani, nsombi mukute kwiyisha nshila ya Lesa mwancine ncine, Sena kusonka musonko ku mwami wa ku Loma casuminishiwa nambi sobwe?”

15 “Tusonkenga misonko nambi sobwe?” Yesu pakubenshiba bundenga mano bwabo, walabambileti, “Ingamulanjelekeshelenga cani? Kamundetelani lyali ndilibone.”

16 Balamutambika lyali, Yesu walabepusheti, “Inga cintimbwi cilipa lyali, ne walembapo niyani?”

Balamukumbuleti “Ni ca Mwami waku Loma.”

17 Neco Yesu walabambileti, “Mupeni Mwami waku Loma bintu byakendi, nendi Lesa mupeni bintu byakendi.”

Nomba balakankamana ne kwamba kulico.

18 Basaduki nabambi batashomo sha kupunduka kubafu balesa kuli Yesu ne kwambeti, 19 “Bashikwiyisha, Mose walatulembela afwe kwambeti na muntu ufwa ushiya mukashi enka wabula mwana, kanike wakendi shikufwa amwebe mukalubingi ne kusemenamo bana mu mulamu wakendi mucimo ca mukwabo 20 Lino palikuba batuloba basanu ne babili pabukwabo. Mukulene bantu waleba mukashi, nsombi walafwa kwa kubula kushiyapo bana, 21 mukwabo wamukonkapo walamweba mukalubingi, neye walafwa katana asemenamo mwana. Calenshika copeleco ku mukwabo wa butatu. 22 Walebwa kuli umo ne umo wa bonse basanu ne babili, nsombi bonse balafwa kwakubula kusemenamo bana, panyuma pakendi neye mukashi uyu walafwa. 23 Lino bantu bakapundukanga kubafu nakabe mukashi wa bani? Pakwinga bonse basanu ne babili balamwebapo?”

24 Yesu walabakumbuleti, Sena ici nteco cilapeshengeti mulubile cakwinseti mubule kwinshiba Mabala ne ngofu sha Lesa? 25 Pakwinga bantu beti bakapunduke kubafu nteti bakebenga nambi kwebwa, pakwinga nibakabengeti bangelo ba kwilu. 26 Na nimakani akwambeti sena bafwa nibakapunduke, sena muliya kubelengapo muli buku lya Mose mpalikwamba sha cifukusa calikubangila mulilo? Lesa mpwalambila Mose eti, “Ame njame Lesa wa Abulahamu, Lesa wa Isake, kayi Lesa wa Yakobo. 27 Nte Lesa wa bantu bafwa, nsombi wa bayumi, mwalubila kwine!”

28 Umo wa beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose walabanyumfwa kabakangana umo ne munendi. Kayi pakuboneti Yesu labakumbulu cakubinga ba Saduki, walamwipusha Yesu eti, “Inga nimulawo upeyo utanshi kupita yonse?”

29 Yesu walamukumbuleti, Mulawo utanshi ni wakwambeti, “Kamunyumfwani amwe Baislayeli, Mwami Lesa wetu, eMwami umo enka bulyo walibela. 30 Neco suna Mwami Lesa wakobe ne moyo wakobe wonse, ne mushimu wakobe onse, ne manjeyaulwa akobe onse, kayi ne ngofu shakobe shonse.” 31 Mulawo watubili ni wakwambeti, “Suna munobe mbuli ncolisuni omwine, Paliya mulawo wapita pa milawo ibili iyi sobwe.”

32 Shikwiyisha Milawo ya Mose walamwambila Yesu,eti “Ncomulamba Bashikwiyisha nicakubinga, Ee pali Lesa umo enka, paliya naumbi sobwe nsombi enka bulyo. 33 Nomba kusuna Lesa ne moyo wakobe wonse ne buyumi bwakobe bonse ne manjeyaulwa akobe onse, kayi ne ngofu shakobe shonse, ne kusuna bantu banobe mbuli ncolisuni, kulayandikinga kupita kutwala milumbo ya banyama ne milumbo naimbi kuli Lesa.” 34 Yesu pakwinshibeti lakumbulu camano, walamwambileti, “Obe nkolipo kutali ne Bwami bwa Lesa sobwe.” Neco bonse balaba ne buyowa, neco bonse balatina bamwipusha Yesu mwipusho naumbi.

35 Yesu mpwalikwiyisha Mung'anda ya Lesa, walepusheti, Inga beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose ngabambeconi eti Klistu nimwanendi Dafeti? 36 Kakuli Dafeti mwine pakutanguninwa ne Mushimu Uswepa, walambeti, Mwami Lesa walamba kuli mwami wakame, eti kwesa wikale ku cikasa calulyo cabulemu, mpaka nkababike balwani bakobe panshi pa myendo yakobe. 37 Dafeti mwine walamwambeti, “Mwami” Ngobaconi mwanendi Dafeti?

Likoto lyabantu balikumunyumfwa Yesu mwakukondwa. 38 Yesu mpwalikwiyisha, walambeti, “Cetukani ne beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose, basuna kwendana kabali muminganjo yalelemba nekuyanda kupewa mitende yabulemu mu misena ya makwebo, 39 bakute kuyanda kwikala pa bipuna byakuntangu mung'anda ya kupaililamo, ne mumisena ya bulemu musena yamalyalya. 40 Aba bantu ebakute kupwisha buboni bwa bamukalubingi, nekulibonesheti bantu balulama mumipailo yabo itali itali, aba bantu nibakatambule lombolosho lunene!”

41 Kayi Yesu mpwalekala pepi ne kabokoshi bantu nkobalikubikamo mali mung'anda kupaililamo, walikalangishisha bantu ncobalikubikamo mali. Abo balikuba ne buboni balikubikamo mali angi, 42 Palashika mukalubingi mupenshi, nendi walabikamo tumali tubili twa mukuba. 43 Neco walakuwa beshikwiya bakendi nekubambileti, cakubinga ndamwambilinga, mukalubingi mupenshi uyu labikimo mali angi kupita ngobalabikimo bonse. 44 Pakwinga bonse batapulanga pa mali apitilila pa mali ngobakute kusebensesha, nsombi nendi mubupenshi bwakendi labikimo mali ngwakutenga onka mung'anda, ebwanga buyumi bwakendi.
