Urukunuwa ikhove
(Mat 17:1-13; Luk 9:28-36)
Yavireke mahuku sita, Yesu nkaakusha Napeturo ni Nayakhobo ni Nayohana umwaakoni waakhalhanne awe vekha aya. Wowo Yesu nkaarukunuwa ikhove, ikuwo chaawanre awe nkachaatelha ttuuu utelha vahinooria awe ntu riyoothe velhaponi vaa uteelhiha thoko chiichammo. Paahi owiittucha araru ayo nkayoona Naeliya ni ashinna Musa yaarerihaka ni Yesu. Napeturo nkaamwiirelha Yesu wiira, “Owiittuchiha, vahorera wiira nirii vaa! Ninouthekelhani mahema mararu, nawinyu ni Ashinna Musa ni Naeliya.” Olhumacha chiicho wo uhichuwelha, vamoka ni akhunanaya ayo yaari ahalhaka anoomiye uwanoni.
Nkanaakhuruwa nihute nkanaakhunelha, ni nlhove nkaneewaniaa nnihuteni neeraka, “Ulha phi Mwaamwanaka kinonttuna aka, mmwiwelhelheke yoyo!” Vaawenhe aya tho, khaawo ntu oonelhe ahikhalhe Yesu vekha awe.
Vaakhuruwa aya umwaakoni, Yesu nkaamuka wiira, “Nhinhimiachere ntu riyoothe chittu chonne inyu, mpaka nihuku no uhihimmwa Mwaana a Ntu.”
10 Nkayanrumelhelha, nansho akakohanachaka ashineneru, “Phi nlhove naani nenno no uhihimmwa unookhwani nno?” 11 Nkayankoha Yesu, “Woonaka owiittuchiha Malhehero a ashinna Musa aneera wiira Naeliya phi nohalha uchokholha uwa?”
12 Yesu nkaakhulha eeraka, “Naeliya phi nohalha uholhelha uwa awe eesha tayari chittu chonkhaye. Nansho veeshiyani ulhepiya wiira Mwaana a Ntu nowa uhuvihiya ni ukhotiya? 13 Kinouhimeriani wiira, Naeliya ahomalha uwa ni ayo nkaapangelhachiya chaathananne aya thoko chilhepiye ni Malhove Matakatifu, chaachaka.”
Yesu nonlhamiha mmirawo o nshoka no unanara
(Mat 17:14-21; Luk 9:37-43a)
14 Veethakaniha aya ni owiittucha akina aahanlhe utulhi ayo, nkayaaphwanya attu enchi anaarukurenrie vamoka ni owiittuchiha Malhehero akina akohanachaka malhove. 15 Attu vaamwonne aya Yesu nkayaashangacha, nkayanttimakelha unshikuriani. 16 Yesu nkaakoha owiittucha awe, “Nnokohanachani?”
17 Nkaakhulha ntu mmoka eeraka, “Owiittuchiha, mii kihommwiiha mwaamwanaka uwaninyu hovariya ni mashoka o unanara hooriaka wulhumacha. 18 Vanonchokholhacha aya, ninommulhushaka vathi ni niphoru ninkhumaka mmwano, ni ukhuura miino, iruttu imuumaka nko. Kahaalhepelha owiittucha inyu, nansho khayonrie unlhamiha.”
19 Yesu nkaahimia wiira, “Inyu mwaatti iyari yo wuuma mirima va! Kinohalha ukhalha ni inyu mpaka iyaakhani? Kuuvilhelhekeni mpaka iyaakhani? Mummwiiheke mmirawo uyo vaa!” 20 Nkanrweha mwammirawo uyo wa Yesu. Nshoka vaamwonne awe Yesu, mwaana vaarweehiya awe, nkanammulhusha mmirawo uyo vathi ni umuumiha, ni unkumiha niphoru uwanoni. 21 Yesu nkaakoha athumwanawe mmirawo ayo. “Nothemwihiya toka iyaakhani?” Athumwanawe mwammirawo ayo nkayaakhulha, “Uchokholha vaari awe mwaana mwankani.” 22 Athepaka uhimiacha wiira, “Venchi vanowulhushia awe, nshoka nithananaka umwiiva wo ummulhushera vamooroni ni vakina mmaashini. Nnonelhe ikiriri, mworiakaru munlhamihe!” 23 Yesu nkeera, “Nneera kooriaka! Kila ittu inoworia wa ntu norumelhelha.” 24 Vavawo athumwanawe mmirawo ayo nkayaakhuwelha yiiraka, “Kinorumelhelha, nansho vakani. Nkihelheke nrima!”
25 Yesu nkoona wiira attu anoothepa uncharaanelha, paahi nkaachachera nshoka nno, “Kinolheherani inyu nshoka no unanara no ohiiwa ni uhuulhumacha nthame, nhinhokolhelhe tho!”
26 Nshoka nkanaakhuwelha, nimmulhushaka mmirawo vathi ninhelhaka ichilhichilhi ni unthama. Mmirawo nkaahalha narumpe thoko ntembo, yeeriaka, “Hokhwa!” 27 Nansho Yesu nkanthesha ammaraka moono umweemesha, nkeemelha.
28 Vaakenlhe awe nnupani, owiittucha awe nkayankoha wo ntemera wiira, “Ana chani woonaka hii khanoonrie woomolha nshoka nne?” 29 Yesu nkaakhulha eeraka wiira, “Nshoka no nikosho thoko nna khaninooria uthama wo uhittuka ni ulhapelhiya kaye.”
Yesu nohimiacha tho mwaha wo nookhwa awe
(Mat 17:22-23; Luk 9:43-45)
30 Yesu ni owiittucha awe nkayaathama vavawo ni ulhukama ilhapo cho Ugalilaya. Yesu khaathananne attu achuwelhe wiira ri vayi, 31 ukhalhawaya aari eetuchihaka owiittucha awe. Eetuchiha wiira, “Mwaana a Ntu nowa uvariya ni urweehiya wa attu anohalha umwiiva. Nansho, nowa uhihimmwa nihuku noneraru naya.”
32 Nansho khayaachuwenlhe ittu yeetuchihiya aya, nkayamwoova unkoha.
Mpani ri mulhupalhe aya?
(Mat 18:1-5; Luk 9:46-48)
33 Nkayaaphiya Ukapenaumu. Vaari aya mpaani, Yesu nkaakoha owiittucha awe wo wiira, “Mwaatti mwaarerihani mphironi mmwe?” 34 Khaawo aakhunlhe, ukhalhawaya vaari aya mphironi ittu yaakokohanacha aya ashineneru yaari mpani ri mulhupalhe aya.
35 Yesu nkaakhalha nipuro, ni weehana owiittucha khumi ni elhi, ni waahimeria wiira, “Ntu nothanana uholhelha yoyo hothananiya ukhalha o uttia nkhora uno akhalhaka namitheko a attu onkhaye.” 36 Nkankusha mwanhima, nkaamwemesha variyari aya. Nkankwapata ni uhimia wiira, 37 “Ntu nompochera mwanhima thoko ulha, aromolhaka nchina naka, hokipochera mii, ni uyo nokipochera, khakiponchere mii vekha haapochera ni ayo akirumilhe.”
Hinonikhota yoyo awihu
(Luk 9:49-50)
38 Nayohana nkayeera, “Owiittuchiha, nahomwona ntu omochalhaka mashoka o unanara aromolhaka nchina ninyu, ni hii nkananchiichiha, ukhalhawaya kahena mmoka ninonttukana ihu munlhokoni mwihu.” 39 Yesu nkaakhulha nkeerelha, “Nhaachiichihe khaawo ntu nooria upanga cho ushangiha wo nchina naka nkoolhumacha chittu cho uhilhoka. 40 Ukhalhawaya kila ntu hinonikhota yoyo ri awihu. 41 Kinouhimeriani wo ikekhiaye wiira ntu nohalha uvahani maashi o uwuria wo nchina naka, ukhalhawaya mwaatti phi attu a Kuristo, yoyo nowa upatta nttuvo nawe.”
Ulhikachiya uwonya
(Mat 18:6-9; Luk 17:1-2)
42 “Ntu riyoothe nohalha waattekiha alha ashinkani anokirumelhelha alha, yoyo nambaya attukelhelhiye nshilho nshikoni mwawe ni utumbucherihiya mbaharini. 43 Mwoonaka moono inyu uhoottekihani, nambaya utupulhiye! Iri nambaya uhikhalha ni moono mmoka ni ukelha uukumini kuliko urihiya umooroni Ujehannamu nnari ni miono miilhi. 44 Mwommo miunku chaya khachinokhwa ni mooro uyo khunotiphia. 45 Mweto chiicho, wo uttekihakani, ntupulheke! Nambaya ukelha uukumini ni mweto mmoka kuliko urihiya umooroni Ujehannamu. 46 Wowo miunku chaya khachinokhwa ni mooro uyo khunotiphia. 47 Niitho ninno noottekihakani, nkhulheke! Nambaya ukelha uphioni wi Imwene ya Nlhuku nnari ni niitho nimoka kuliko urihiya umooroni Ujehannamu mmwehaka ni miitho melhi. 48 Wowo ‘miunku chaya khachinokhwa, ni mooro aya khuntiphia.’ ”
49 “Kila mmoka, noteelhihiya wo mooro thoko inama chinohelhiya aya maakha. 50 Maakha ari o uchiva, nansho athuwaka anohalha uchiva chani tho?”
“Nchiveke thoko maakha wo wiiwanana mwaashineneru, nkhalheke mumpuhani mmanupani mwinyu.”
