1 A Yeshu gubhapundile kwalugulilanga, “Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, bhapalinji bhananji bhalinginji pepano bhakawanganga bhakanabhe kuubhonanga Upalume gwa a Nnungu ulikwiya kwa mashili.”

2 Gakapiteje mobha nng'ano na limo, a Yeshu gubhaatolilenje a Petili na a Yakobho na a Yowana, gubhapite nabhonji kushitumbi shashileu kwa jikape. Kweneko gubhapindikwishe lubhombo lwabho, mmujo jabhonji, nibhoneka shinape. 3 Nngubho yabho yashinkung'anyima niwejela kwa kaje, wala jwakwapi nkushapa jojowe pa shilambolyo akombola kushapa nikwiitenda iwejele malinga nneyo. 4 Gubhakoposhelenje a Eliya na a Musha gubhakungulukenje na a Yeshu. 5 A Petili gubhaalugulile a Yeshu, “Mmajiganya, shankonja uwe kubha apano. Bhai, tushenje itala itatu, shimo shenu mmwe, na shina sha a Musha na shina sha a Eliya.” 6 Mbena bhakashimanyaga shibhabheleketaga, pabha bhenebho na ashajabhonji bhashinkujogopanga.

7 Kungai gulyaunishilenje liunde malinga shiwili, lilobhe likupilikanikaga nniundemo “Jweneju Mwanangu jungumpinga, mumpilikanishiyanje.” 8 Shangupe bhakang'wang'wayanjeje, bhangammonanga mundu juna ikabhe a Yeshu jikape.

9 Bhai, pubhalinginji nkuelela shitumbi, a Yeshu gubhaalimbiyenje bhanannugulilanje mundu jojowe indu ibhaibhweninji, mpaka Mwana juka Mundujo, pushayushe awaga. 10 Bhai, gubhalibhishilenje mmitima lyene lilobhelyo, bhalibhuyananga ashaayenenji malombolelo ga yuka kopoka kubhawilenje. 11 Gubhaabhushiyenje a Yeshu, “Pakuti bhaajiganya bha Shalia bhakutinji mpaka bhatandubhe kuika a Eliya?”

12 A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Elo, a Eliya bhanakwiyati kualaya yowe. Nkali nneyo, kwandi bhai ishijandikwa Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo kuti Mwana juka Mundu anapinjikwa potekwa na kanwa? 13 Ikabheje ngunakummalanjilanga, a Eliya bhaaishe, nabhalabhonji nigubhaatendelenje yowe ibhapinjilenje, malinga shibhajandishilwe Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo.”

14 Bhakaaishilanjeje bhaajiganywa bhananji bhala, gubhalubhweninji lugwinjili lukulungwa lwa bhandu lwaatimbililenje bhalitaukangana na bhaajiganya bha shalia. 15 Shangupe lugwinjili lwa bhandu bhaakabhonanjeje a Yeshu, bhowe bhashinkulapanga kwa kaje, gubhaabhutushilenje kukwalamushila. 16 A Yeshu gubhabhushiyenje, “Nkutaukangana nndi?”

17 Mundu jumo munkumbi mula gwabhajangwile, “Mmajiganya, njikwiyanajo mwanangu kwenu mmwe, ashikola lioka likuntenda anabhelekete. 18 Papagwinji ashikilwaga anakunngwiya pai na kopoka shiulo nkang'wa, alitauna meno na ng'ang'anala shiilu showe. Njinkwaajuganga bhaajiganywa bhenu bhanshoyanje ikabheje bhangakombolanga.”

19 A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Mmanganya lubheleko lwangali ngulupai! Shindame na mmanganya mpaka shakani? Shinikakatimile mpaka shakani? Munnjiyenajonji akuno.” 20 Gubhampelekenje. Shangupe lioka jula akaabhoneje a Yeshu, gwanngwishiye nikunng'ungumiya, aligalabhuka na kopoka shiulo nkang'wa.

21 A Yeshu gubhaabhushiye ainamundu, “Genega pugampatile kutandubhila shakani?” Nabhalabho gubhajangwile, “Tandubhila ali mwana. 22 Papagwinji lioka linakunngwishiya pamoto na mmashi, nkupinga limmulaje. Bhai, ibhaga nnakombola, ntubhonele shiya na ntujangutile!”

23 A Yeshu gubhaalugulile, “Kwa nndi nkuti, nkombolaga? Gowe ganaakomboleka kuka mundu akulupalila.” 24 Penepo ainamundu bhala gubhagutile bhalinkuti, “Ngulikulupalila! Nnyangutile kwa ungakulupalila gwangu.”

25 A Yeshu bhakalubhoneje lugwinjili lwa bhandu lulikwaajiila shibhutuka, gubhankalipile lioka jula bhalinkuti, “Lioka ukuntenda mwanaju anabhelekete na anapilikane, ngunakuamulisha gunshoshe nshandaju na unannjinjile kabhili!”

26 Lioka jula gwagutile, gwanng'ungumiye kwa kaje, kungai gwanshoshile. Nshanda jula paliji mbuti ashiwa, na bhananji gubhashitenje kuti, “Awile!” 27 Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhankamwile nkono, gubhannjinwile na jwalakwe gwajimi.

28 Bhai, a Yeshu bhakajinjileje nnyumba, bhaajiganywa bhabho gubhaabhushiyenje pajika, “Pakuti uwe twangakombola kunshoya?”

29 Na bhalabho a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Lioka lya malinga lyeneli nkakombolanga kulishoya, ikabhe kwa juga Nnungupe.”

30 A Yeshu na bhaajiganywa bhabho gubhashoshilenje pepala, gubhapelengenyenje na mwanja gwabhonji pitila ku Galilaya. Na bhalabho a Yeshu bhakapinjileje mundu amumanye kubhali, 31 pabha bhatendaga kwaajiganyanga bhaajiganywa bhabho. Gubhaalugulilenje, “Nne Mwana juka Mundu shingamuywe kubhandu na shibhammulaganje, ikabheje lyubha lya tatu shinyushe.”

32 Bhaajiganywa bhabho bhangalimanyanga lyenelyo. Ikabheje gubhajogopenje kwaabhuya.

33 Bhai, gubhaikengenenje ku Kapalanaumu. Pubhaliji nnyumba, a Yeshu gubhaabhushiyenje, “Mwataukanganaga nndi mumpanda?”

34 Ikabheje bhanganyabho gubhatemingenenje ilili, pabha mumpanda bhatenda taukangana ga gani ali nkulungwa jwabhonji.

35 A Yeshu gubhatemi pai, gubhaashemilenje likumi limo na bhabhili bhala, gubhalugulilenje, “Mundu apinga kubha nkulungwa, anapinjikwa abhe jwa kumpelo na ntumishi jwa bhowe.” 36 Kungai gubhantolile mwana jwa nshoko, gubhannjimishe pakatipakati jabhonji, gubhannjambete, gubhaalugulilenje, 37 “Akumposhela mwana jwa nshoko malinga jweneju kwa lina lyangu, anamboshela nne, na amboshela nne, akaamboshela nnepe, ikabheje na bhandumile bhala.”

38 A Yowana gubhaalugulile a Yeshu, “Mmajiganya, tushikummona mundu jumo alishoya maoka kwa lina lyenu, na uwe gutulinjile kunnimbiya pabha nngabha jwa munkumbi gwetu.”

39 Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhashite, “Nnannimbiyanje, pabha jwakwapi mundu atenda ilapo kwa lina lyangu, popo pepo nimeleketela yangali ya mmbone. 40 Pabha akakututauka, pali na uwe. 41 Mundu jojowe shampanganje mashi ga ng'wa, ligongo nshibhanganga bhandu bha a Kilishitu, kweli ngunakummalanjilanga akapelela upo yakwe.

42 “Mundu jojowe shannebhye jumo jwa munkumbi gwa bhashokonji bhangulupalilangabha, kaliji mbaya jwene mundujo, atabhilwe liganga likulungwa lya yajila nnukoi lwakwe nileshelwa mmaali. 43 Nkono gwenu unnebhyaga muukate! Mbaya jinjila mugumi gwangali nkono gumo, nngalingana na kola makono ganaabhili, nileshelwa kumoto gwa ku Jeanamu. 44 Mwenemo mbiu yakwe ikawa, wala moto gwake ukaimika. 45 Na lukongono lwenu lunnebhyaga, nnukate! Mbaya jinjila mugumi nni na lukongono lumo, nngalingana kola makongono ganaabhili, nileshelwa kumoto gwa ku Jeanamu. 46 Mwenemo mbiu yakwe ikawa, wala moto gwake ukaimika. 47 Na liyo lyenu linnebhyaga nnishoye! Mbaya jinjila mu Upalume gwa a Nnungu nninkwete shongo, nngalingana kola meyo ganaabhili, nileshelwa kumoto gwa ku Jeanamu. 48 Mwenemo mbiu yakwe ikawa, wala moto gwakwe ukaimika.

49 “Pabha kila mundu shaukangwe na moto malinga mbepei puiukangwa na nnjete. 50 Nnjete ni ja mmbone, ikabheje jikanonye jitagwe indi nkupinga jinonye? Ntamangane kwa ulele munkumbi gwenunji, nkupinga kunong'aya shilongani.”
