1 Yesu akabhapwaghile, “Chakaka, numpwaghila, jola jwangakujingila pundyangu mu libheghi la mambeleli, nambu akwela kwa kupetela pandu pangi, jonihoju nde mwihe najombi nde mnyaghula. 2 Nambu joajingila pundyangu, jonihoju nde mdima wa mambelele. 3 Mlonda wa pundyangu anhoghulela jonihoju, na mambeleli ghajowana sauti jake, najombi aghaloha mambeleli kwa mahina ghabhu, na kughapeleka kunja. 4 Najombi paaghapiha kunja mambeleli ghaki ghokapi, aghalongulela, na mambeleli ghala ghunjengalela, maghambu bhajimanya sauti jake. 5 Mambeleli hagha ngaghawezi kunjengalela ngeni ng'o, nambu anaghuntilaje, maghambu ngachebhajimanyi sauti jaka ngeni.”

6 Yesu akabhapwaghi ulenganesu aghoghu, nambu bhombi ngachebhamanyi mambu ghaakabhi abhapwaghila.

7 Bhela Yesu akabhapwaghi kabhete, “Chakaka, numpwaghila nepani nde ndyangu wa mambelele. 8 Bhokapi bhabhanongulile nde bhihe na bhanyaghula, nambu mambeleli ngacheghajowanile. 9 Nepani nde ndyangu. Mundu anaajingi kwangu nepani, anaakengalikaje, anaajingala na kupita, najombi anaapata malelelo. 10 Mwihi ahika pe kwa ndandi ja kujibha, kukoma, na kuyonanga. Nepani nakahikiki nahuli bhabya na womi, kabheti bhabya naku womi wamaheli.”

11 “Nepani nde mdima wambone. Mdima wambone aubhoha womi waki kwa ndandi ja mambelele. 12 Nambu mundu wa malepu, wala nga mdima wa mambelele, ambaju mambeleli nga ghake, paalibhona libweha lihika, aghaleka mambelele na mweni kutila. Na libweha lighakamula na kughapechangana. 13 Mundu hoju atila, wala ngacheaghajali mambelele, kwa ndandi abhi mundu wa malepu pela. 14 Nepani nde mdima wambone, na naghamanya mambelele ghangu, na mambelele ghangu ghamanye. 15 Ngati bhela Atati moamanyi nepani, na nepani monimmanyi Atati. Na nepani niubhoha womi wangu kwa ndandi ja mambelele. 16 Na mili kabheti na mambeleli ghangi, ghaghu nga gha libheghi lendeno, na ghanihagha naghombe imbalika kughaleta, na sauti jangu anabhajowanaje, na bhela anakukubhaje na lipogha limu na mdima jumu.”

17 “Atati wangu ambala nepani, maghambu nubhoha womi wangu, nahuli nupataje kabhete. 18 Nga mundu joamokela womi wangu, nambu nepani nubhoha namwete. Mili na lujiniku lwa kuubhoha, na mili na lujiniku lwa kuukelebhuha kabhete. Anana nde Atati wangu moanaghalakile nhengaje.”

19 Kukabhi kabheti na ughabhaniku wa Bhayahude, kwa ndandi ja malobhi ghanihagha. 20 Bhamaheli bhabhu bhakapwaghike, “Hajoju abhi na lijobhe, na kabheti mwanamangongo! Bho, maghambu kiki munjowanela?”

21 Bhangi bhakapwaghike, “Malobhi ghanihagha nga ghaka mundu joabhi na lijobhe. Bho, lijobhi liweza kaghayeku mihu ghaka ngalola?”

22 Bhela ku Yelusalemu hoku kukabhili na Uwangalalu wa kubheka wakifu Nyumba jaka Chapanga, na chikahi hechi chakabhi chikahi cha imbepu. 23 Yesu akabhi akajendajenda mu Nyumba jaka Chapanga, mu liwangala laka Solomoni. 24 Bhela Bhayahude bhakamuyongalwiti, na kumpwaghila, “Bho, mbaka lile anautung'ahaje mitima jitu? Ngati wehapa nde wa Kristo, utupwaghila hotuhotu.”

25 Yesu akabhayangike, “Numpwaghile, nambu mwehapa ngachemuhobhalela. Mahengu ghangani ghanihenga kwa lihina la Atati wangu, nde ghaghanandila. 26 Nambu mwehapa ngachemuhobhalela, maghambu mwehapa ngachembili mu mambeleli ghangu. 27 Mambeleli ghangu ghajowana sauti jangu. Nanatu naghamanye, naghombi ghanyengalela. 28 Nanatu naghapekeha womi wa mileli, wala ngaghapoteli ng'o. Kabheti nga mundu joaweza kubhanyaghula kuhuma mu mabhoku ghangu. 29 Atati wangu, joambeki bhanihabha, nde nkolongwa kupeta bhokapi, kabheti nga mundu joaweza kubhanyaghula kuhuma mumabhoku gha Atati wangu. 30 Nepani na Atati wangu tubhi jumu.”

31 Bhela Bhayahude bhakatondwi maganga kabheti nahuli bhundapulaje. 32 Yesu akabhayangike, “Mahengu ghamboni ghamaheli nundangihe, ghaghahuma kwa Atati wangu, bho, kwa ndandi ja lihengu bhole pamahengu ghanihagha mpala kunapula kwa maganga?”

33 Bhayahude bhakamuyangike, “Ngechetukulapu maganga kwa ndandi ja mahengu ghambone, nambu kwa ndandi ja kutondola, na kwa ndandi wehapa weubhi wa mundu, ulitenda wamwete kubha nde Chapanga.”

34 Yesu akabhayangike, “Bho, ngacheilembakiki mu Shelia hinu kubha, ‘Nepani nakapwaghiki, kubha mwehapa nde ichapanga?’ 35 Ngati akabhalohiki ichapanga, bhala bhalakabhahiki Lilobhi laka Chapanga, naghombi Malembu Mahuhu ghapwagha chakaka machobha ghokapi, 36 henu jola ambaju Atati akungolwili na kuntuma pundema, maghambu kiki mbwaghi kubha nuntondola Chapanga, pambwagha, ‘Nepani nde Mwana waka Chapanga?’ 37 Ngati ngachenhenga mahengu gha Atati wangu, ngamwinhobhalela. 38 Nambu ananaghahenga, hata ngati ngachemunihobhalela nepani, mughahobhalyaje mahengu ghanihagha nahuli mpataje kumanya, na kuhobhalela, kubha Atati abhi mkati jangu, na nepani mili mkati ja Atati.”

39 Bhela bhakapaliki kabheti kunkamula, nambu Yesu akabhokiki mu mabhoku ghabhu.

40 Yesu akapiti kabhete kwihi ja nkoka Yoludani, pandu Yohana Mbatizaje paakabhi abatiza pakutumbula hapa, na kutama konihoku. 41 Bhandu bhamaheli bhakunjendi Yesu, na kupwagha, “Yohana ngacheakatendiki ngangachu jokapi jela, nambu mambu ghokapi Yohana ghaakalongili panani jaka mundu hajoju ghakabhi gha chakaka.” 42 Bhandu bhamaheli konihoku bhakunhobhali Yesu.
