OYesu ayaba oku Mukolo ogwʼoBusiisira
Ebyo owebyawoire, oYesu nʼatambuliranga omu bitundu byʼeitwale lyʼe Galiraaya nga tasala ensalo okwaba omwitwale lyʼe Buyudaaya. Ekyo kityo olwakubba aBayudaaya babbaire eeyo nga bamwekuumire okumwita. Cooka omukolo ogwʼaBayudaaya ogubeeta bati, “Mukolo ogwʼoBusiisira,” gwabbaire gwatira okutuuka.+ Awo abaganda ba Yesu ni bamukoba bati, “Kikwetaagisya ozwe aanu oyabe omwitwale lyʼe Buyudaaya kaisi abeegibo beezye okubona ebyamagero ebyokola. Ekyo kityo olwakubba mpaawo muntu abisabisa ekyakola neenu ngʼataka abantu bamumanye omu lwatu. Aale ngʼowookola ebyamagero binu, oyabe obikolere nʼeeyo yona abantu bonabona bakumanye.” Ibo abagandabe batumwire batyo olwakubba ibo bona abananyere tibamwikiririryemu.
Nʼolwekyo oYesu nʼabakoba ati, “Ekiseera ekyange ekituuce ekyokwaba eeyo kikaali okutuuka. Neye inywe ekiseera kyonakyona kituuce inywe okweyabira. Ekyo kityo olwakubba inywe abantu tibeezya okubacaawa, neye nze bancaawa olwakubba mbakobera nti ebikole ebibakola bibbibibbi. Inywe mwabe oku mukolo, nze tinaabe ekiseera kinu, olwakubba ekiseera ekyange ekituuce ekyokwabiramu eeyo kikaali okutuuka.” Era oYesu oweyamalire okutumula ebyo, iye nʼasigalaku omu Galiraaya.
10 Neye abaganda ba Yesu owebamalire okwaba oku mukolo, oYesu yena nʼabasenjaaku cooka nga timu lwatu, neye mu mbiso. 11 Kaisi eeyo oku mbaga nago abeekubbemberi bʼaBayudaaya babbaire bamunoonia nga babuulirirya bati, “Omusaiza oyo nago ali nkonaki?”
12 Cooka omu kiziima kyʼabantu awo, wabbairewo okumuweweetaku nga kungi omu bantu. Abamo nga bakoba bati, “Musaiza musa.” Abamo nga ibo bakoba bati, “Bbe, abbeyabbeya abantu.” 13 Neye olwʼokutya abeekubbemberi bʼaBayudaaya, ni watabbaawo amutumulaku omu lwatu.
OYesu oku Mukolo ogwʼoBusiisira
14 Awo akati omu naku gyʼomukolo, oYesu nʼayaba omu luuga lwʼeYeekaalu, era nʼatandiika okwegesya abantu. 15 Era aBayudaaya ni beewunya ino engeri egyayegesyamu, era ni beebuulya bati, “Omusaiza oyo yasunire atya okumanya okwo atyo aate nga tasomangaku kadi byʼediini?”
16 Awo oYesu nʼabairamu ati, “Binu ebinjegesya tibyange, wazira bizwa eeri Kibbumba iye eyantumire. 17 Singa omuntu yenayena asalawo okukola oKibbumba ebyataka, ategeera obanga ebinjegesya bizwa eeri Kibbumba, ooba ntumula byange-kuwange. 18 Iye omuntu atumula ebibye okululwe abikola lwʼokwenoonerya kitiisyakye. Neye oyo akolerera kusunisya yoodi eyamutumire kitiisya, abba atumula mazima, era tabbaamu bubbeyi. 19 Kaisi oMusa tiyabawaire aMateeka? Mbona kwinywe nywena mpaawo muntu akwata aMateeka ago. Aale nga inywe mukoba muti mugakwata, lwaki musala amalabuki okunjita?”
20 Awo ekiziima kyʼabantu ababbairewo ni bamwiramu bati, “Iwe koizi oliku muzimu! Naani asala amalabuki okukwita?”
21 Iye oYesu nʼabairamu ati, “Nze nakolere ekyewunyo kimo oku Saabbaato, nywenanywena ni kibasisiwalya. 22 Neye nti nywena oku Saabbaato mukomoleraku abaana olwakubba oMusa yabalagiire okukomolanga waire wona tikwatandiikiire ku Musa. Cooka ekinanyerenyeere kiri kiti, okukomola okwo kwatandiikiire ku bazeiza baanywe.+ 23 Atyanu obanga beezya okukomola omwana oku Saabbaato, olwʼokutavuna eiteeka lya Musa, aale lwaki munnyiigira nze olwʼokulamirya nʼakimo omuntu oku Saabbaato?+ 24 Kale okumanya ekituuce, timwasalawo kusinzirira ku ngeri egimubibonamu oku ngulu, neye musinzirire ku nsonga entuuce omu maiso ga Kibbumba.”
OYesu niiye oKurisito?
25 Awo abamo oku bantu abʼomu Yerusaalemi ababbaire awo, ni batandiika okwebuulyangana bati, “Omusaiza onu tiniiye ogubanoonia okwita? 26 Aate ngonu atumulira mu lwatu, era mpaawo nʼekibamukoba. Abʼobwezye beezya okubba nga bategereire nakimo bati onu niiye oKurisito ogubasukireku amafuta? 27 Neye omusaiza onu iye tumaite egyazwera, aate nga iye oKurisito oweyaliiza, mpaawo eyalimanya egyazwera.”
28 Awo oYesu oweyabbaire ngʼakaali ayegesya omu luuga lwʼeYeekaalu, nʼalangirira ati, “Inywe museega muti mummaite, era muti nʼeginzwera mumaiteyo. Aale mumanye muti tinaizire kulwange, wazira oyo eyantumire dala aliyo, cooka inywe oyo ogumutamaite. 29 Neye nze mmumaite olwakubba nazwire gyali, era niiye eyantumire.”
30 Awo ni bagezyaku okumukwata, cooka ni watabbaawo amukubbyaku olwakubba ekiseerakye ekyʼokumukwata kyabbaire kikaali okutuuka. 31 Neye era bangi omu kiziima kyʼabantu ababbaire awo ni bamwikiririryamu, nga bakoba bati, “Kaisi nago oKurisito ogubasukireku amafuta oweyaliiza yalikola obumanyiciryo wʼebyewunyo obukiraku onu obwakola?”
32 Awo aBafalisaayo ni bawulira ngʼabantu baweweeta oku oYesu, kale abakabona abakulu nʼaBafalisaayo ni batuma abaisulukale okumukwata. 33 Awo oYesu nʼabakoba ati, “Njaba okumala na inywe ekiseera kitono, kaisi njabe egiri oyo eyantumire. 34 Era mwalinnoonia neye timwalimbona, era inywe timwezya okutuuka eginjaba.”
35 Awo abeekubbemberi ba Bayudaaya ni bakobangana bati, “Omusaiza onu ataka kwaba yaina egitutalyezya okumubonera? Ataka kwaba giri bantu baiswe badi abasalaanikiire omu Buyonaani, ayezye okwegesya aBayonaani? 36 Ategeeza niki okukoba ati, ‘Mwalinoonia, neye timwalimbona,’ era ati, ‘Inywe timwezya okutuuka eginjaba?’ ”
Eiruba lyʼamaizi agʼobwomi
37 Oku lunaku olusembayo era nga niirwo olukira obukulu oku Mukolo ogwʼoBusiisira, oYesu nʼayemerera, era nʼatumula maaminkirira ati, “Buli muntu enyonta ogweruma, aize egyendi anywe.+ 38 Iye yenayena anjikiririryamu ayezya okwiza nʼanywa. Ekyo kityo olwakubba eKiwandiike kikoba kiti: ‘Eiruba lyʼamaizi agʼobwomi obutawaawo lyalikulumuka nga lizwa omu omuntu oyo nago.’ ”+
39 Ekyo oYesu yakitumwire ngʼategeeza Mwoyo oMweru abamwikiririryamu ogubabbaire baaba okusuna egibwizaku. Paka omu kiseera ekyo, babbaire bakaali okubawa oMwoyo oMweru olwakubba nti oKibbumba yabbaire akaali okugulumalya oYesu.
Obutategeragana kwʼabantu oYesu ekyali
40 Kale awo abantu bʼomu kiziima ekyo owebawuliire ebibono ebyo, abamo ni bakoba bati, “Dala onu niiye onaabbi oodi ogubatusuubizire.”+
41 Ibo abandi ni bakoba bati, “Onu niiye oKurisito ogubasukireku amafuta.” Kaisi abandi ni batala-butali bati, “OKurisito ogubasukireku amafuta ayezya atya okuzwa mu Galiraaya? 42 Ikyo eKiwandiike tikikoba kiti yalizwa mwibyaire lya Dawudi, era balimubyalira mu Bbeserekeemu, ikyo ekibuga omu babyala oDawudi?”+ 43 Kale omu ngeri eyo abantu ni batuuka omu butategeragana olwa Yesu. 44 Era awo abamo kwibo ni bataka okumukwata, neye era ni watabbaawo amukubbyaku.
Obutaikirirya bwʼabeekubbemberi bʼaBayudaaya
45 Awo ekyazwiremu abaisulukale abakuumi bʼeYeekaalu ni bakanga egiri abakabona abakulu nʼaBafalisaayo. Kale ibo ni babuulya abaisulukale bati, “Lwaki timumuleetere?” 46 Abaisulukale ni bairamu bati, “Mpaawo muntu eyabbaire atumwire ebyʼamaani ooti biidi oodi ebyatumula!”
47 ABafalisaayo ni babairamu bati, “Ekimutegeeza muti inywe nywena abaliibirye? 48 Inywe mwabbaire muboineku iswe abafugi baanywe, ooba oMufalisaayo yenayena ngʼamwikiririryamu? 49 Naire! Okutoolaku ekikoosi kyʼabantu abatamaite amateeka ga Musa, kaisi nago ekikoosi ekiraame!”
50 Kale iye oNikodemu omoiza kwibo nago abeekubbemberi bʼaBayudaaya, era iye enyumaku eyaabire obwire egiri oYesu, awo nʼabuulya abainaye ati,+ 51 “Amateeka gaiswe* gaikirirya okusalira omuntu omusango nga bakaali okumuwozesya nʼokutegeera ekisobyo ekyakolere?”
52 Ibo ni bamwiramu bati, “Kaisi wena ozwera mwitwale lyʼe Galiraaya? Weekeenenye eBiwandiike. Ala omanye oti e Galiraaya mpaawo naabbi azwerayo.” [ 53 Kale awo buli muntu nʼakanga e wuwe.
