1 “Chikahi hechi Ukolongwa wa kunani kumahunde anaulengana na akamwali komi, bhabhatoliki taa yabhu, na kujenda kunjopalela bambo ukwati. 2 Akamwali nhwanu pachilanda jabhu bhakabhi bhang'ang'a, na nhwanu bhakabhi bhabhabhi na malangu. 3 Bhala bhabhakabhi bhang'ang'a bhakaitoliki taa yabhu, nambu ngachebhakatoliki mahuta gha kujonjukela. 4 Nambu bhala bhabhabhi na malangu bhakaitoliki taa yabhu, papamu na mahuta ghangi gha kujonjukela mu makopu ghabhu. 5 Kwa ndandi bambo ukwati akatehi kukabhakila, akamwali bhokapi bhakatitili, na kughochela lughono.

6 “Nambu ikilu pamahiku, pakabhi na ngomela, ‘Njumukaje, bambo ukwati ahika, njendanya mukunjopalyaje!’ 7 Panihapa bhakabhokiki akamwali bhokapi, na kuibheka wichu taa yabhu. 8 Bhang'ang'a bhala bhakabhapwaghi bhabhabhi na malangu bhala, ‘Mutupekya mahuta ghinu machokope, ndandi taa hitu ichuchuka.’ 9 Nambu bhabhabhi na malangu bhala bhakabhayangiki, ‘Ngaghatujaghanile tepani na mwehapa. Mbanga njendanya kobhalombesa, na mkahemala ghinu.’ 10 Bhela, pabhakabhi bhajenda kuhemela, bambo ukwati akahikiki, na akamwali bhabhakabhi tayali bhakajingili papamu naku mu ukwati, na ndyangu ukajighaliki.

11 “Palongi bhakahikiki akamwali bhangi bhala, na kupwagha, ‘Bambo, Bambo, utuhoghulyaje!’ 12 Akabhayangiki, ‘Chakaka, numpwaghila, ngachenumanyi mwehapa.’ ”

14 “Chikahi chenihechi Ukolongwa wa kunani kumahunde wibya ngati ulenganesu waka mundu joapala kutenda mwanja. Akabhalohiki bhatumika bhaki, na kubhapekeha hindu yaki. 15 Akumpeki kila jumu kulengana na uwezu waki, jumu akumpeki mbija talanta unhwanu, jongi mbija talanta ibheli, jongi mbija talanta jimu, na mweni kubhoka. 16 Jola joakapatiki mbija talanta unhwanu akapiti, akaihengi lihengu, na kupata nyonjeka mbija talanta yengi unhwanu. 17 Jola joakapatiki mbija talanta ibeli najombi akahengiki bhelabhela, na kupata nyonjeka ibheli. 18 Nambu jola joakapatiki mbija talanta jimu jola akapiti kuhyelalela pahi, na kuhiya mbija jaka nkolongwa waki.

19 “Paghapetiki machobha ghamaheli bambo wa bhatumika jola akahikiki, na kuhenga mabhalanganilu nabhu. 20 Mtumika joakapatiki mbija talanta unhwanu jola akahikiki, na kuleta mbija talanta unhwanu nakanopi. Akapwaghiki, ‘Bambo, ukabhekiki kwangu mbija talanta unhwanu. Lingalya, pambani ibhi mbija talanta unhwanu nakanopi ja nyonjeka jembatike.’ 21 Bambo waki akumpwaghile, ‘Uhengiki wichu namaa, mtumika wambone na undongwana. Ubhi undongwana kwa mambu machoku, ananukupekya lujiniku lwa kujemalela hindu yamaheli. Ujingalaje na uhekalya papamu na bambo waku.’

22 “Jola joakajopali mbija talanta ibeli najombi akahikiki, na kupwagha, ‘Bambo, ukabhekiki kwangu mbija talanta ibeli. Lingalya, pambani ibhi mbija talanta ibeli ya nyonjeka jembatike.’ 23 Bambo waki akumpwaghile, ‘Uhengiki wichu namaa, mtumika wambone na undongwana. Ubhi undongwana kwa mambu machoku, ananukupekya lujiniku lwa kujemalela hindu yamaheli. Ujingalaje na uhekalya papamu na bambo waku!’

24 “Jola joakajopalile mbija talanta jimu akahikiki, na kupwagha, ‘Bambo, nakamanyiki kubha wehapa nde wa mundu weunonwipe, uhuna panga kupanda, na ubhongana panga kupechangana imbeju. 25 Bhela nakajowipi, na kujihiya mbija jaku pahi ja luhombi. Utolaje, jenjenu nde mbija jaku.’

26 “Bambo waki akayangiki, ‘Wehapa nde wa mtumika muhakau na unkata. Umanyi kubha nepani nihuna panga kupanda, na kubhongana panga kupechangana. 27 Bhela ikakupaliki ubheka mbija jangu kwa bhandu bhabhabhoha nyonjeka, nanatu panakahikaje nakapata jejibhi jangu na nyonjeka jaki. 28 Henu, munyaghula mbija heji, na mumpekya jola joabhi nayu mbija komi. 29 Kwa ndandi kila joabhi na chindu anaajonjukiwaje, na kujonjukewa nakanopi. Nambu jola jwangakubha na chindu, hata chela cheabhi nachu anaanyaghulikaje. 30 Mtumika jola jwanga na nyonjeka, mundekala kunja mu lwihi. Konihoku anakubya chilelu na kuyagha mino.’

31 “Chikahi Mwana waka Mundu paanahikaje ngati nkolongwa mu lujiniku lwaki, na bhatumika bhahuhu bhokapi bha kunani kumahunde, panihapa nde paitama pachitehu cha ukolongwa cha ulumbalilu waki. 32 Bhandu bha inchi yokapi bhalibongana palongi jaki, najombi anaabhalekanisha ngati mdima moalekanashe mambelele na imbuhi yaki. 33 Anaaghabheka mambelele ku chiwoku chaki cha kumalelelu, na imbuhi ku chiwoku chaki cha kumangeja. 34 Panihapa Nkolongwa anaabhapwaghila bhala bhabhabhi ku chiwoku chaki cha kumalelelu, ‘Muhikaje, mwehapa mwempengaliki na Atati wangu, mpwelila ukolongwa ghombekakiwi tayale kutumbu kubhombakeka kwa ndema. 35 Kwa ndandi nakabhi na injala, mkambeki chilebhe. Nakabhi na inywita, mkangengiki machi. Nakabhi nungeni, mkangalibishe. 36 Nakabhi heu, mkanhwatiki ingobhu. Nakabhi nuntamwa, mkahikiki kunilola. Nakabhi muchifungu, mkahikite.’

37 “Panihapa bhandu bhambone anabhumpwaghila, ‘Bambo, bho, lichobha bhole patukuweni ubhi na injala, tukakulehike, au ukabya na inywita, tukakukengiki machi? 38 Bho, kabheti lile patukuweni ukabya ungeni, tukakukalibishe, au ukabya heu, tukakuwatiki ingobhu? 39 Bho, lile kabheti patukuweni ukabya untamwa, au ukabya muchifungu, tukakuhikile kukubhona?’ 40 Nkolongwa akayangiki, ‘Numpwaghila, chakaka, kila chindu chemukamhengi jumu wa bhalongu bhangu bhachoku abhabha, mkanihengi nepani!’

41 “Bhela akabhapwaghi bhala bhabhabhi ku chiwoku chaki cha kumangeja, ‘Mbokanya kwangu mwehapa mwempatiki masolu. Njendanya mu moto wa mileli ghoabhekakiwi Shetani papamu na bhatumika bhaki. 42 Kwa ndandi nakabhi na injala, ngachemwambeki chilebhe. Nakabhi na inywita, ngachemwangengiki machi. 43 Nakabhi nungeni, ngachemwangalibishe. Nakabhi heu, ngachemwanhwatiki ingobhu. Nakabhi nuntamwa, na muchifungo, ngachemwahikiki kunilola.’

44 “Panihapa na bhombi bhiyangaje, ‘Bambo, bho lichobha bhole patukuweni wehapa ukabya na injala, au ukabya na inywita, au ukabya ungeni, au ukabya heu, au ukabya umtamwa, au ukabya muchifungo, na tepanu ngachetukakujangatile?’ 45 Nkolongwa akabhayangiki, ‘Chakaka numpwaghila, kila pankanika kumuhengela mambu aghagha jumu wabhu wa bhachoku abhabha, mkakaniki kunihengela nepani.’ 46 Bhombi anabhajenda kujingila mu mang'ahiku gha mileli, nambu bhandu bhambone bhala anabhajenda mu womi wa mileli.”
