1 Panyuma pakendi Mwami Yesu walasala bambi batuloba makumi asanu ne abili ne bantu babili ne kubatuma nanshi kuntangu kuya muminshi ne misena yonse nkwalikuyanda kuyako. 2 Kufumapo walabambileti, “Kutebula kulafulu, lino beshikutebula balacepe. Lino sengani kuli mwine libala kwambeti atume bambi basebenshi beshikutebula.” 3 Kamuyani, nomba ndamutumunga mbuli bana bambelele pakati pabaumpe. 4 Mutamanta mpotomona ya mali, cola nambi nkwabilo. Mutataya cindi ca kupana mutende ne bantu munshila. 5 Mung'anda muli monse momulengili mutangune kwambeti, Mube lumuno mung'anda muno. 6 Na mung'anda umo muli muntu layandanga lumuno, lumuno ulo nilukabe kuli endiye. Nsombi na muliya muntu wa mushoboyo, ekwambeti lumuno nilukabwelele kuli njamwe. 7 Mwakekala mung'anda yopeleyo kayi mukalye ne kunwa byonse byoti bakamupe pakwinga musebenshi uliwonse ukute kutambula malipilo akendi. Mutafumanga nkomulashikili nekuya kumanda ambi. 8 Mwashika mumushi mweshi bakamutambule mukalye byonse mbyeti bakamupe. 9 Mukasengule bantu balwashi mumunshi umo kayi nekubambila bantu eti, Bwami bwa Lesa bulesa pepi nenjamwe. 10 Mwakashika mumunshi umbi bantu bakabule kumutambula, kamuyani munshila sha mumunshi uyo nekwambeti, 11 nambi lusuko lwamuminshi iyi lulamatila kumyendo yetu nikulupampa nekwambeti lube kamboni. Lino inshibani kwambeti Bwami bwalesa Lesa buli pepi! 12 Ndamwambilinga cakubingeti pabusuba bwakubeteka, minshi iyo nikabe ne mulandu kupita munshi wa Sodomu!

13 “Ukute malele, obe Kolasini ne Betisaida! Pakwinga kuli incito yangofu yalenshika muli amwe, ne yalenshika kuminshi ya Tulo ne Sidoni, bantu bakusa, ne balasanduka kendi kuleka bwipishi nekufwala masaka kayi nekulinanika milota, kubonesheti balatembenuku kuleka bwipishi. 14 Ndamwambilinga cakubingeti pabusuba bwakubeteka Lesa nakamupeni mulandu unene kupita baku Tulo ne Sidoni. 15 Nenjobe Kapelenawo, sena ulayeyengeti nibakakunyamune mpaka kwilu? Sobwe, nibakakuwale panshi pabusena bwa bafu!”

16 Yesu walambila beshikwiya bakendi eti. “Uyo lanyumfwili amwe ekwambeti lanyumfwili ame, uyo weshi kukana ame lakana ne Bata balantuma.”

17 Bantu bali makumi asanu ne abili ne bantu babili balabwelako kabalibakondwa balambeti, “Mwami, Lino ne mishimu yaipa ilatunyumfwilinga twayambila mulina lyenu.” 18 Yesu walabakumbuleti, “Ndamubona Satana nkalaka kwilu eti kubyasha kwamfula. 19 Lino kamunyufwani! Ndamupanga ngofu shakulyata injoka ne tupilili kayi ne kukoma ngofu shonse sha mulwani. Kuliya ceti cikamulinge. 20 Nsombi mutakondwa kwambeti mishimu yaipa yamunyumfwilanga, nomba kondwani pakwinga mena enu alembwa kwilu.”

21 Pacindico Yesu walakondwa mu Mushimu Uswepa. Lino walambeti, “Ndalumbu Ta, amwe mwine kwilu ne cishi ca panshi pakwinga mulayubululu kubantu babula kwiya bintu mbyomwalasoleka kubantu ba mano ne baiya. Cakubinga Ta, mwalayanda kwinsa kwelana nekuyanda kwenu.

22 “Ba Ta balabika bintu byonse mumakasa akame. Kuliya muntu winshi mwana, nsombi ba Ta bonka. Kayi kuliya muntu winshi ba Ta, nsombi Mwana enka kayi ne abo Mwana mbwalasaleti abayubulwile.” 23 Popelapo walalanga kuli beshikwiya bakendi nekubambila kulubasu eti, “Bakute colwe abo balabononga bintu ibi mbyomulabononga. 24 Ndamwambilingeti banshinshimi ne bami bangi bali kuyandishisha kubona mbyomulabononga, nomba baliya kubibonapo. Ni cakubinga bali kuyandishisha kunyumfwa bintu mbyomulayumfunga, nomba baliya kubinyumfwa.”

25 Popelapo kwalesa shikwiyisha Milawo kwambeti asunkwe Yesu ne kumwipusheti, “Amwe beshikwiyisha, nicani ncendela kwinsa kwambeti nkatambule buyumi butapu?” 26 Yesu walamwipusheti, “Nomba mu Milawo mwalembwa cani? nomba mukute kubelengamo cani?” 27 Shikwiyisha Milawo walakumbuleti, “Suna Mwami Lesa wakobe ne moyo wakobe wonse, ne buyumi bwakobe bonse, nengofu shakobe shonse kayi ne miyeyo yakobe yonse, ‘Kayi kosuna munobe mbuli ncolisuni omwine.’ ” 28 Yesu wamwambileti, “Ulakumbulu cena, uye winseco, nukabe ne buyumi butapu* 10:28 Leviticus 18 vs 5.”

29 Lino shikwiyisha pakuyanda kulibonesheti walulama, walepusha Yesu eti, “Nomba muname niyani?”

30 Yesu walakumbuleti, “Kwalikuba muntu ku Yelusalemu walikuya ku Yeliko. Mpwalikuya munshila, walakumanya kapondo balamwikata, balamufulula ne kumuma, nekumushiya nkali wawisuka. 31 Lino shimilumbo walikapita munshila yopeleyo, mpwalabona muntu uyo walomwa, walapitila kumbali. 32 Neye Mulevi walikapita munshila yopeleyo, mpwalashika palikuba muntu walomwa walamubona nomba neye walapitila kumbali. 33 Nsombi Musamaliya walikuba pabulwendo munshila yopeleyo mpwalamubona muntuyo walanyumfwa inkumbo. 34 Walaya mpwalikuba wona waletila mafuta ne waini pabilonda byakendi nekusungapo bikwisa. Mpwalapwisha kwinseco walamumanta pambongolo yakendi ne kumutwala kung'anda ya bensu uko nkwalamubamba cena. 35 Bushiku bwalakonkapo mu Samaliya uyo walapa mali mwine ng'anda ya bensu nekumwambileti, ‘Mumusunge cena, na mukasebensenshe mali naambi ninkese nkalipile ndakabwelanga.’ ”

36 Lino Yesu pakupwisha walepusha shikwiyisha milawo eti, “Lino mumuyeyo wakobe, niyani pabantu batatu aba welela kuba munendi wamuntu walomwa ne kapondo?” 37 Shikwiyisha milawo walakumbuleti, “Uyo walamunyumfwila inkumbo.” Lino Yesu walamwambileti, “koya lino winse mbuli copeleco.”

38 Lino Yesu nebeshikwiya bakendi mpobalikuba mulwendo lwabo, balashika mumunshi mwali kwikala Malita. Mutukashi uyo walabatambula ne makasa abili mung'anda yakendi. 39 Malita walikuba ne mukwabo Maliya uyo walikuba wekala panshi pepi ne Yesu kakutika kwiyisha kwakendi. 40 Lino pacindico Malita incito yalamufulila walaya kuli Yesu nekwambeti, “Mwami sena nkamubweni kwambeti kanike wakame landekelenga incito yonse? Kamumwambilani ese anyafwe.” 41 Mwami Yesu walamukumbuleti, “Malita obe! wasukamanga nekupeshewa pa bintu bingi, 42 nsombi kuli cintu cimo cisuniki, Maliya lasala cintu caina kayi kuliyeti akamulamunepo.”
