1 Yesu ne iwanang'ina wake hawang'ali habehi na Yerusalemu na kupfika Betifage mne Chidunda cha Mitseituni, kawatuma iwanang'ina wake weli, 2 kawalongela, “Mghende mbaka mne kaye ili hambele henu, baho mtsomwona ipunda kohighwa hamwe ne imwanaghe, muwadohole mngalile hano. 3 Imunu wowose ang'awalongela chochose, mumlongele, ‘Imtwatsa kowabama,’ naye katsowaleka mke.” 4 Achino chilawila ili aghala ighalongighwe na manabii ghatimile. 5 “Umlongele neghe Sayuni,

6 Apfo iwanang'ina waghenda watenda ka Yesu pfayawalongele. 7 Wamghala ipunda ne imwana we ipunda, weka ghamaghwanda ghawo mchanya mwe punda awo, na Yesu kakala mchanya mwake. 8 Iwanu wengi wagheka ghamaghwanda ghawo mnzila na wangi waghana milala wanzasa mnzila. 9 Na iwanu iwamlongole na awala iwamuwinzile wose wandusa kukemelela, walonga, “Yatogholighwe, Imwana wa Daudi! Imulungu kambaliki ayula iyakutsa kwa taghwa lye Imtwatsa! Yatogholighwe Imulungu yali kuchanya kulanga!”

10 Yesu hayengile Yerusalemu, iwanu wose wakangawala, weghutsa, “Ayu nani?”

11 Iwanu wawedika, “Ayuno nabii, Yesu wa Natsareti ya Galilaya.”

12 Yesu kengila mne Ing'anda ye Imulungu kawawinga wose awala iwang'ali woghula na iwang'ali wohutsa. Katsibindula tsimetsa tsawo tsa ukubenela tsisendi na ipfighoda pfa awala iwang'ali woutsa iwanjiwa. 13 Kawalongela, “Yandikighwa, ‘Ing'anda yangu itsokemighwa ing'anda ya ukulombela.’ Lekeni mwemwe mwoitenda iwe mango ye iwabapfi!”

14 Ipfifita na ipfimbete wamghendela Yesu mne Ing'anda ye Imulungu, naye kawahonetsa. 15 Lekeni iwatambika wakulu na iwolangulitsa ghamalaghitso tsawona maya hawonile pfinu pfa kukangawatsa pfayatendile Yesu, ne iwana pfawakemelele mne ing'anda ye Imulungu, “Yatogholighwe Imwana wa Daudi!” 16 Apfo wamghutsa Yesu, “Apfi kohulika chawolonga iwana wano?”

Kawedika, “Ona, ng'amsomile bae? ‘Kwa milomo ye iwana wadowado ne iwana iwakong'a kwotogholighwa ghendo.’ ”

17 Yesu kawaleka kaghenda Betaniya, kunze kwe ghumji, kawasa kuko.

18 Nemitondo lupfilipfili, Yesu hayang'ali kakuya mne ghumji, tsakona inzala. 19 Kaghwona mbiki mmbalimbali mwe inzila, kaghughendela lekeni ng'onile chochose bae ila imitsani iliyeka. Apfo kaghulongela, “Uleke ukweleka keli ghamatunda!” Bahala mbiki ghula ghunyala.

20 Iwanang'ina wake hawonile apfo wakangawala, wamghutsa, “Ule mbiki ghuno ghusumka kunyala?”

21 Yesu kawedika, “Nowalongelani ghendo mng'atoghola na kuleka kwalangula, mwodaha kutenda si achila chiliyeka ichanendile mne mbiki, ila mwodaha kuchilongela chidunda chino, ‘Wibule, wikeyase mwibahali,’ kuya itsakuwa pfipfo. 22 Mng'atoghola, chochose chamlomba mtsobokela.”

23 Yesu kengila mne ing'anda ye Imulungu, na hayang'ali yolangulitsa, iwatambika wakulu na iwakulu we iwanu wamghendela, wamghutsa, “Kwa ukulu wachi kotenda ghano ghose? Yuhi yakwing'ile ukulu uno?”

24 Yesu kawedika, “Na nene nitsowaghutsa imbuli imwe, mng'anyidika, nitsowalongela notenda ghano kwa ukulu wachi. 25 Apfi ubatitso wa Yohane ulawile kwani? Tsaulawa kulanga au kwe iwanu?”

Wandusa kwighutsa iwenyegho kwe iwenyegho walonga, “Tung'alonga, ‘Ulawa kulanga,’ katsotughutsa, ‘Ule lelo ng'amumtoghole Yohane?’ 26 Lekeni tung'alonga, ‘Ulawa kwe iwanu,’ twopfuka iwanu, kwaapfila wose tsawatoghola Yohane kakala nabii.” 27 Apfo wamwidika Yesu, “Ng'atumanyile bae.”

Naye kawedika, “Na nene siwalongela bae kwa ukulu wachi notenda ipfinu apfi.

28 “Mkonatse? Imunu yumwe tsakana iwana weli, kaghenda kwa ayula mwana mkulu kamlongela, ‘Mwanangu, leloli ughende ukasang'ane mne mghunda.’ 29 Naye kamwidika, ‘Sighenda bae,’ lekeni hambele chidogho kaghaluka kaghenda. 30 Kuya aba ayo kamghendela imwana wa keli, kamlongela ichinu chichila. Naye kamwidika, ‘Ona aba,’ lekeni ng'aghendile bae. 31 Lelo yuhi mna iwana wano weli iyatendile achila chayabamile aba wake?”

Wamwidika, “Imwana imkulu.”

Yesu kawalongela, “Nowalongelani ghendo, iwasola kodi na iwaghoni watsowalongola kwingila mne undewa we Imulungu. 32 Kwaapfila Yohane tsakatsa kuwalangusa inzila inoghile, namwe ng'amumtoghole bae, lekeni iwasola kodi na iwaghoni wamtoghola. Namwe hata hamwonile apfo, ng'amghaluke bae na kumtoghola.”

33 Yesu kalonga, “Mtegheletse imbuli ingi, imunu yumwe yane ing'anda kahanda tsabibu mne mghunda. Kaghuteghela luwa mghunda agho, kahimba lipondo lya ukukamila tsabibu, katsenga ghumnala, kawakodishila iwanu iwolima, kuya koka ghumwanza. 34 Ghamatsuwa gha ukupfuna haghapfikile, kawatuma iwatumwa wake wakasole tsabibu. 35 Hawala iwanu iwolima wawaghogha iwatumwa wake, yumwe wamtowa, yungi wamkoma, na yungi wamtowa na ghamabwe. 36 Kuya tsakawatuma keli watumwa wangi, tsawengi kubita awala wamwanduso, na iwanu wala iwolima wawatendela pfipfila. 37 Hawamalile wose ghendo, kamtuma imwanaghe kuna wawo, kalonga, ‘Watsomtegheletsa mwanangu.’ 38 Lekeni iwanu iwolima hawamwonile, welongela iwenyegho, ‘Ayuno iye muhala, mtse tumkome tusole uhala wake!’ 39 Apfo wamghogha, wamwasa kunze kwe mghunda ghwe imitsabibu, wamkoma.

40 “Lelo, imunu yane mghunda hayatsakutsa, yatsowatenda choni awala iwanu iwolima?”

41 Wamwidika, “Katsowakoma ghendo iwanu awo wehile, katsoweka iwanu wangi mne mghunda aghwo, nawo watsomgholela tsitsabibu mne ghamatsuwa ghe kupfuna.”

42 Yesu kawalongela, “Ng'amsomile bae Ghamaandiko Mahenzeluka,

43 “Apfo nowalongelani ghendo, undewa we Imulungu utsobokighwa kuna mwemwe na kwing'ighwa iwanu iwakweleka ghamatunda ghake, awala iwotenda aghala ghobama Imulungu. 44 Na ayula iyakughwa mchanya mwe libwe lino katsobeneka beneka, na wowose ilitsomghwila litsomhonda.”

45 Watambika wakulu na Mafarisayo hawahulike apfo, tsawamanya Yesu tsaang'ali yowalonga wawo. 46 Apfo wabama inzila ya kumghoghela, lekeni wapfuka iwanu, kwaapfila iwanu tsawamona Yesu tsakakala nabii.
