8 “Au tupwagha mbomba jumu abhi na mangengelema kome gha mbija, bho, anahoiki lingengelema limu, aitenda bhole? Anapambakya taa na kupyaghi munyumba na kujilonda wichu mbaka ajipataje. 9 Jombi anaalipatiki lingengelema heli, anaabhalohaje bhakochi bhaki na bhandu bha pambipi jaki, na kubhapwaghila, ‘Muhekalyaje papamu na nepani, maghambu nilipatiki lingengalema langu limu lelahobhike!’ 10 Bhelebhela numpwaghila, bhenibhela nde mobhahekalela nakanopi bhatumika bha kunani kumahunde bhaka Chapanga kwa ndandi jaka muhakau jumu joang'anambuka na kughaleka mahoku ghaki.”

11 Yesu akajendali kubhapwaghila, “Kukabhi na mundu jumu joakabhi na bhana bhabheli bha chikambaku. 12 Nchoku jola akampwaghi atati waki, ‘Atati, umbekya upwelelu wangu.’ ” Bhela atati akabhaghabhi hindu yaki. 13 Paghapetiki machobha machokope, nchoku jola akalombisi hindu yaki. Akapiti na mbija yeakapatiki ku inchi ja kutali, konihoku akajitangini mbija yaki kwa matamu gha chijaka. 14 Paakajomwi kutumi mbija yaki, kukapitali injala ngolongwa ku inchi jenijela jokape, najombi akahighali panga chindu. 15 Bhela akapiti kujopa lihengu kwaka mundu jumu mwenei wa inchi jenijela, najombi akundaghalaki ajenda kungonda waki kulekeya magholobhi. 16 Jombi akatokuli namaha kula makambati ghala ghaghakulika magholobhi, nambu nga mundu joakampeki chindu cha kula. 17 Paakatumbwili kupata malangu, akaholali mumtima waki na kupwagha, “Atati wangu abhi na bhatumika bhamahele bhakula na kukileka chilebhe, na nepani mbotela kwa injala! 18 Bhela anamoka kongo na kujenda kwa atati wangu na kampwaghila, ‘Atati, nuntendi mahoku Chapanga na nukutendi mahoku wehapa. 19 Ngachembalika kabheti kulowakeka mwana waku, undenda mya ngati jumu wa bhatumika bhaku.’ ” 20 Bhela akatumbwi mwanja wa kukelabhuka kwa atati waki.

“Nambu paakabhi akali patali pachokopi, atati waki akumbweni, koni mtima waki utweli chiha, akunkembalili mwana waki, akunjobhatili na kumbusu. 21 Mwana jola akumpwaghi atati waki, ‘Atati wangu, nuntendi mahoku Chapanga na nukutendi mahoku wehapa.
