1 Kuya Yesu kaghenda keli mne ing'anda ye ukulombela. Aho kukala ne imunu yane ghumoko ighuholole. 2 Iwanu wamwenga wang'ali wobama imbuli ya kumghoghela Yesu. Apfo wamlolesa ka ang'amhonetse imunu ayo mne Litsuwa lya Sabato. 3 Yesu kamlongela imunu ayo, “Utse hano hambele.” 4 Kuya kawaghutsa iwanu, “Apfi chihi chinoghile cha kutenda mna litsuwa lya Sabato, kutenda ghanoghile au ghehile? Kuukombola ughima au kuukoma?” Lekeni wawo ng'awalongile chinu chochose bae.

5 Kawalolesa iwanu kwa maya, baho kona usungu mmoyo mwake, kwa usughu we imimoyo yawo. Kuya kamlongela imunu yula, “Ugholose ghumoko ghwako.” Naye kaghugholosa, na ghumoko ghwake ghuhona. 6 Apfo Mafarisayo walawa kunze mwe ing'anda ye Imulungu, wetingana ne iwanu wa Herodi wandusa kubama inzila ya kumkoma Yesu.

7 Yesu ne iwanang'ina wake waghenda kune ghumto Galilaya na iwanu wengi tsawamuwinza, walawila Galilaya na Yudeya. 8 Hawahulike ghose ghatendile, iwanu wengi wamtsila kulawa Yudeya, Yerusalemu, Idumeya ne ipfijiji ipfili kumwambu mwa ghumto Yoridani ne imiji ya Tiro na Sidoni. 9 Kwaapfila iwanu wakala wengi, Yesu kawalongela iwanang'ina wake wamwikile ghoya mnumbwi, ili iwanu waleke kumsoghelela. 10 Kwaapfila tsakawahonetsa iwanu wengi, iwatamu wose wang'ali womsoghelela habehi wamkinde. 11 Ne iwanu wane ipfinyamkela chila hawamwonile, waghwa hasi hambele hake, wakemelela, “Ghweghwe kwa Imwana we Imulungu.”

12 Yesu kawaghoma ipfinyamkela waleke kumlongela imunu wowose ka yeye tsanani.

13 Yesu kagheluka kuchidunda, kawakema awala iyawabamile mwenyegho, nawo wamghendela. 14 Naye kawasaghula iwanu kumi na weli, kawakema watumighwa. Kawalongela, “Niwasaghula mwemwe mkale na nene. Kuya nitsowatuma mghende mkawapetele iwanu. 15 Namwe mtsakuwa na ukulu wa kulapfa ipfinyamkela.”

16 Awano iwo iwanu kumi na weli iyawasaghule. Simoni, yakemighwe na Yesu taghwa lingi Petiri, 17 Jakobu na ndughu yake Yohane, iwana wa Sebedayo Yesu tsakaweng'a taghwa Boanerige, mana yake iwana wa mdumo, 18 Andereya na Filipi, na Batalomeyo, na Matei, na Tomasi, na Jakobu imwana wa Alifayo, na Tadei, na Simoni Mkananayo, 19 na Yuda Isikarioti, iyamhunduke Yesu.

20 Kuya Yesu kaghenda ukaye, iwanu wengi wetingana keli mbaka Yesu ne iwanang'ina wake ng'awadahile bae ukuja. 21 Wandughu tsake hawahulike agho, waghenda kumsola kwaapfila tsawalonga, “Kana lukwale.”

22 Na iwolangulitsa Ghamalaghitso gha Musa iwalawile Yerusalemu walonga, “Kana Belisebuli! Imkulu we ipfinyamkela iyo iyomwing'a ingupfu ya kulapfa ipfinyamkela.”

23 Yesu kawakema, kawalongela kwa imifano, “Apfi Setani kodahatse kumlapfa Setani? 24 Undewa wowose ung'eghola wenyegho, ambe wakughwa. 25 Ka ing'anda yeghola yenyegho, ing'anda ayo itsakughwa. 26 Apfo ka undewa wa Setani weghola iwenyegho, utsakughwa na kutsigha.

27 “Kuduhu imunu iyodaha kwingila mng'anda mwe imunu yane ingupfu na kusola ipfinu pfake, mbaka tanu amwohe imunu ayo. Baho katsodaha kupfisola ipfinu pfake.

28 “Nowalongela ghendo, iwanu watsoleghusighwa nzambi tsawo na ghamaligho ghawo ghose kwe Imulungu. 29 Lekeni imunu wowose iyomligha Ghumuhe ghwe Imulungu ng'odaha bae kuleghusighwa nzambi ayo, kwaapfila katenda nzambi ya ghamatsuwa ghose.”

30 Yesu tsakalonga apfi kwaapfila iwanu wang'ali wolonga, “Kana chinyamkela.”

31 Kuya mai wake Yesu ne iwandughu tsake wapfika. Wema kunze, wamtuma imunu mng'anda amkeme. 32 Iwanu tsawamtsunguluka Yesu. Nawo wamlongela, “Mai wako na ndughu tsako wakunze, wokubama ghweghwe.”

33 Yesu kawedika, “Apfi mai wangu nani na ndughu tsangu tsina nani?”

34 Kuya kawalola iwanu iwamtsunguluke, kalonga “Awano hano iwo mai wangu na ndughu tsangu! 35 Imunu wowose iyotenda aghala ghobama Imulungu, ayo iyo ndughu yangu na lumbu wangu na mai wangu.”
