Bhwo bhiisa, akabhapa amaka agha kushikiisha imbepo imbiibhi shooshi nu kubhaposha abhandu bhaabho bhakabha bhabhine. 2 Po akabhatuma abhamanyili abho ukuti bhabhuuke ku bhandu pakulumbilila inongwa isha chitangalala icha Chaala nu kubhaposha bhaabho bhakabha bhabhine. 3 Bhwo bhakaali ukubhuuka, uYeesu akabhalaghila akati, “Bhwo mukubhuuka, manye mweghaghe naakamu. Manye mweghaghe ingoomo iya kughendela, inyambi, ifindu pamu indalama. Soona manye mweghaghe umwenda ughwa bhubhili ughwa kuchenjesania. 4 Mu kaaya kooshi kaako bhaaya bhaabhapokeela mu nyumba shaabho, mukiikalaghe mula mula ukufika paapo indimukatiilaghe mu kaaya ako. 5 Loole linga abhandu bhaaya bhaakaana ukubhapokeela mu kaaya kaabho, mukatiilagheemwo mu kaaya ako nu kukungʼunda ulufumbi luulwo luli mu tulundi twinyu,*9:5 Ukukungʼunda ulufumbi luulwo luli mu tulundi twinyu kwo kulangisha ukuti uChaala aabhakaana abhandu abha kaaya kala ku nongwa iya kuti bhaabhakaana abhatumighwa bhaake. ukuti bhubhe bhukeeti ubhwa kubhasoka ukuti uChaala indiakabhalonge, paapo bhaakaana ukuyiitika indumi yaake.” 6 Po abhamanyili bhala bhakatiila nu kubhuuka mu kaaya akanandi kamu ukufika akaaya akanandi akanine, bhakalumbililagha ku bhandu iNongwa iNyiisa isha chitangalala icha Chaala nu kubhaposha bhaabho bhakabha bhabhine kwoshi kuukwo bhakabhuukagha.

7 Umalafyale uHelooti yuuyo akabha mulongoshi ughwa chiisu icha Ghalilaayi akapulika imbombo shooshi shiisho uYeesu akabhombagha. Bhwo inongwa isho shaamwagha, uHelooti akayubhana leka ku nongwa iya kuti abhandu bhamu bhakatingi uYoohani uMwoshi ashuukite. 8 Abhandu abhanine bhakatingi, “Umundu uyu musololi uEliiya†9:8 UEliiya akabha ghwe yumo mu bhasololi abha bhwila. Abhandu bhamu bhakatingi uYeesu ghwi Eliiya yuuyo iisile soona, paapo uEliiya uyo akabhuuka kumwanya chishita kufwa. Soona bhakasubhaalilagha ukuti indiakiise soona (Malaaki 4:5-6). yuuyo asetukite soona.” Abhanine bhakatingi, “Umundu uyu ghwe yumo mu bhasololi abha bhwila yuuyo ashuukite.” 9 Loole uHelooti akayugha akati, “Une ingamuputula uYoohani uMwoshi umutu, kali, ghwini uyu yuuyo ingwendelela ukupulika ukuti akubhomba imbombo isha kuswighisha isho?” Ku nongwa iyo, uHelooti akanyonywanga leka ukukomaana nu Yeesu.

10 Abhatumighwa bhala bhakaghaluka kuukwo uYeesu akabhatuma pakulumbilila nu kubhaposha abhabhine, bhakamupangila shooshi shiisho bhakabhombagha. Po uYeesu akabheegha nu kubhuuka pamupeene nabho pabhushiifu kupiipi na kaaya aka Bheetisayita. 11 Loole ifilundilo ifya bhandu fikamanya kuukwo uYeesu na bhamanyili bhaake bhakabhuukagha, po fikamukonga. UYeesu akabhapokeela abhandu abhingi abho nu kwanda ukubhamanyisha inongwa isha chitangalala icha Chaala nu kubhaposha bhaabho bhakabha bhabhine.

12 Bhwo lyabha lya namasubha, abhamanyili bhaake kalongo na bhabhili (12) bhakabhuuka kukwake, bhakamubhuula bhakati, “Ghwe Mumanyishi, tukukusuuma ubhalaghe abhandu abha ukuti bhabhuuke mu twaya utunandi tuutwo tuli papiipi na mu mighunda ukuti bhaye bhaghule ifindu nu kulonda ubhughono, paapo panu tuli patali nu twaya utwa bhandu.” 13 Loole uYeesu akabhaamula akati, “Umwe, bhape ifindu abhandu abha.” Abheene bhakamwamula bhakati, “Utwe tuli ni mikati mihaano ni iswi shibhiliishe. Kali, kulonda utwe tubhuuke pakughula ifindu ifya kubhayiilania abhandu bhooshi abha?” 14 Abhamanyili bhaake bhakayugha ulwo ku nongwa iya kuti pabhuyo bhula, bhakabhaapo abhaliisha abhoelufu bhahaano. Po uYeesu akabhabhuula abhamanyili bhaake akati, “Bhabhuule abhandu bhiikale paase mu fibhughutila nu kuti chooshi ichibhughutila chibhe na bhandu amalongo mahaano (50).” 15 Po abhamanyili bhakabhabhuula abhandu isa muumwo uYeesu akabhabhuulila. Abhandu bhooshi bhakiikala paase mu fibhughutila. 16 Po uYeesu akeegha imikati mihaano yila ni iswi shibhili shila, akatesha kumwanya, akapaalisha kwa Chaala. Bhwo aapaalisha, akabheghulania imikati yila ni iswi shila, akabhapa abhamanyili bhaake, bhoope bhakabhayabhila abhandu bhooshi. 17 Abhandu bhooshi bhakalya nu kwikuta. Po bhwo bhaalya, abhamanyili bhaake bhakabhungaania utubhululusha utwa mikati ni iswi shila nu kwisusha utupombo kalongo na tubhili (12).

18 Ishiku limo uYeesu akabhuuka pabhuyo ubhushiifu ukuti iipuute kwa Chaala. Abhamanyili bhaake bhakabha papiipi naghwe bhwo akwipuuta. Bhwo uYeesu aamala ukwipuuta, akabhabhuusha abhamanyili bhaake akati, “Kali, ifilundilo ifya bhandu fikuunjugha une ukuti nee ghwini?” 19 Abheene bhakamwamula bhakati, “Abhandu bhamu bhakukuyugha ughwe ukuti ghwe Yoohani uMwoshi, abhanine bhakuti ughwe ghwe musololi uEliiya na bhanine bhakuti ughwe ghwe yumo mu bhasololi abha bhwila yuuyo ashuukite.”

20 Po uYeesu akabhabhuusha abheene akati, “Kali, umwe mukuti une nee ghwini?” UPeeteli akamwamula akati, “Ughwe ghwe Mesiiya‡9:20 UMesiiya Kwo kuti, Kilisiti. Bhelenga ingamu iya UKilisiti ku Mashu aMaheesha. ukufuma kwa Chaala!” 21 UYeesu akabhasoka nu kubhakaanisha abhamanyili bhaake ukuti manye bhamubhuulaghe umundu naayumo inongwa isho.

22 Po uYeesu akeendelela ukubhabhuula abhamanyili bhaake akati, “UMwana ughwa Mundu akulondighwa ukushaagha indamyo inyingi, ukukaanighwa na bhosongo abha Bhayuuta, abhosongo abha bhapuuti na bhamanyishi abha ndaghilo isha Moose nu kughoghighwa. Loole indiakashuuke pi ishiku ilya bhutatu.”

23 Po uYeesu akabhabhuula abhandu bhooshi akati, “Umundu ghweshi yuuyo akulonda ukuungonga, iikaane mwene, apimbaghe ichikobhekano chaake§9:23 Apimbaghe ichikobhekano chaake Kwo kuti, kwitika ukushaagha indamyo nu kufwa ku nongwa iya Yeesu Kilisiti. lyoshi ishiku, aangongaghe. 24 Paapo umundu ghweshi yuuyo akulonda ukubhupoka ubhwumi bhwake mwene, indiabhupyute. Loole umundu yuuyo akubhufumya ubhwumi bhwake ku nongwa yangu, uyo ghwe yuuyo indiabhupoke. 25 Kali, umundu akukabha kooni linga aabhwagha ubhukabhi bhwoshi ubhwa pa chiisu ichi, loole aabhusofya ubhwumi bhwake? 26 Ku nongwa iyo, umundu ghweshi yuuyo akufwa isoni ukuunyiitika une na mashu ghangu, uMwana ughwa Mundu indiakamufwile isoni bhwo akwisa nu bhukulumba ubhwa Taata ghwake pamupeene na bhandumi abheelu. 27 Nalooli ingubhabhuula, bhaliipo abhandu bhamu bhaabho bhiimite panu bhaabho bhataabhakafwe bhwo bhakaali ukuchibhona ichitangalala icha Chaala.”

28 Bhwo amashiku mahaano na matatu (8) ghaakinda ukufuma bhwo uYeesu aayugha amashu agho, akamwegha uPeeteli, uYoohani nu Yaakobhu, akakwela pamupeene nabho pa kaghamba pakwipuuta kwa Chaala. 29 Bhwo uYeesu ali pakwipuuta, icheeni chaake chikasanuka, imyenda yaake yikabha myelu nu kungʼangʼa ngaani. 30 Nakalinga bhakabhoneka abhandu bhabhili, uMoose nu Eliiya bhakuyugha naghwe. 31 Bhoope bhakabhonekagha mu bhukulumba, bhakayughagha nu Yeesu isha kumaliisha ubhwighane ubhwa Chaala ku sila iya kufwa mu kaaya aka Yelusaleemu.

32 Mu kabhalilo ako, uPeeteli na bhanine bhakashumbeelagha. Loole bhwo bhaalamusha, bhakamubhona uYeesu akungʼangʼa mu bhukulumba, soona bhakabhabhona abhandu bhabhili bhiimite pamupeene naghwe. 33 Bhwo uMoose nu Eliiya bhaanda pakutiila, uPeeteli akamubhuula uYeesu akati, “Ghwe Songo, kiisa ukuti utwe twikalaghe panu panu. Po ingusuuma tusenge ifitembe fitatu, chimo chibhe chaako, ichinine chibhe cha Moose ni chinine chibhe cha Eliiya.” Loole uPeeteli atakamanya shiisho akayughagha.

34 Bhwo uPeeteli akaali ali pakuyugha, tesha, ibhingu likiisa nu kubhiifunikila. Po abhamanyili abha Yeesu bhakooghopa bhwo ibhingu lila lyabhiifunika. 35 Po ishu likapulikighwa ukufuma mu ibhingu likati, “Uyu ghwe yuuyo Mwana ghwangu umusalighwa yuuyo imusalite, mupulikaghe!” 36 Bhwo uChaala aamala ukuyugha, abhamanyili bhala bhakamubhona uYeesu ali mwene. Po bhakashibhiika inongwa isho mu ndumbula shaabho nu kuti mu mashiku ghala bhatakamubhuula umundu naayumo shiisho bhakashibhona nu kushipulika pa kaghamba kala.

37 Ishiku liilyo likakongagha, bhwo uYeesu na bhamanyili bhatatu bhala bhiilomuka ukufuma pa kaghamba kala, ichilundilo ichikulu icha bhandu chikiisa pakukomaana nu Yeesu. 38 Po umundu yumo ukufuma mu chilundilo icha bhandu bhala akiitisha ku ishu ilya pamwanya akati, “Ghwe Mumanyishi, ingukusuuma umupelele ichisa nu kumuposha umwana ghwangu ku nongwa iya kuti ghwe yuuyo mwana ghwangu mweneeshe yuuyo indi naghwe. 39 Imbepo imbiibhi yikumulongoshanga akabhalilo kooshi, po yikumupelelagha umulumyana ukuti ayweghaghe ngaani. Soona yikumughwishanga paase ku maka nu kwanda ukufuma indotofulo ku mulomu. Imbepo imbiibhi iyo yitakumulekeshanga naalumo, loole yikumufulashanga akabhiibhi leka. 40 Imbasuumite abhamanyili bhaako ukuti bhayikiishe imbepo imbiibhi iyo, loole bhapooshitwe.” 41 UYeesu akabhaamula akati, “Mwe bhandu abha kabhalilo aka mwe mutakwitika, mwe musobhite. Kali, indiniikale nuumwe nu kukibha ukufika liighi? Isagha panu nu mwana ghwako uyo!”

42 Bhwo ughwise akubhuuka nu mwana ghwake yula kwa Yeesu, imbepo imbiibhi yila yikamughwisha paase nu kumuyungaania ku maka. Loole uYeesu akayikemela imbepo imbiibhi yila, akamuposha umwana yula nu kumughalusha kwa ghwise. 43 Abhandu bhooshi bhakaswigha leka pakughabhona amaka amakulu agha Chaala. Bhwo abhandu bhala bhakaali bhakuswigha shooshi shiisho uYeesu akashibhombagha, uYeesu akabhabhuula abhamanyili bhaake akati, 44 “Pulikishanga akiisa ishi shiisho inguya pakubhabhuula! UMwana ughwa Mundu akuya pakubhiikighwa mu tukono utwa bhalughu.” 45 Loole abhamanyili bhaake bhatakashaaghania shiisho uYeesu akayughagha ku nongwa iya kuti isanusho lyake likafifighwa kukwabho ukuti manye bhashaaghaniange. Soona bhakooghopagha ukumubhuusha uYeesu ukuti abhalingaanie isanusho lyake.

46 Ishiku limo abhamanyili abha Yeesu bhakaanda ukukaanikana bheene-bheene ukuti pakati papaabho ghwini yuuyo indiabhe ghwi songo ukukinda abhanine bhooshi. 47 Loole uYeesu akashimanya inyinongʼono shiisho bhakiinongʼonagha mu ndumbula shaabho. Po akamwegha umwana umukeke nu kumwimika papiipi naghwe. 48 Po akabhabhuula abhamanyili bhaake akati, “Umundu ghweshi yuuyo akumupokeela umwana umukeke isa uyu ku nongwa yangu, akuumbokeela neene. Soona, umundu ghweshi yuuyo akuumbokeela une, po akumupokeela nu Chaala yuuyo aandumite. Paapo umundu ghweshi yuuyo akwiyiisha pakati papiinyu mweshi isa umwana umukeke uyu, ghwe yuuyo ghwi songo.”

49 Bhwo uYoohani aamupulika uYeesu shiisho akayughagha, akamubhuula akati, “Ghwe Mumanyishi, twamubhweni umundu yumo yuuyo aashikiishanga imbepo imbiibhi ukubhombela ingamu yaako, nuutwe twamukaanishiishe ku nongwa iya kuti atali pamupeene nuutwe.” 50 Loole uYeesu akamwamula akati, “Manye mumukaanishange paapo umundu ghweshi yuuyo atakubhakaanika umwe, ali kulubhafu lwinyu.”

51 Bhwo akabhalilo kaapalamila aka Chaala ukumwegha uYeesu nu kubhuuka naghwe kumwanya, uYeesu akatumula ukubhuuka mu kaaya aka Yelusaleemu. 52 Po akabhatuma abhandu bhamu bhatangile mundaashi ukubhuuka mu kaaya kamu aka mu chiisu icha Samaliiya pakutendekesha ubhuyo ubhwa kutuusha uYeesu pamupeene na bhaabho akabha nabho. 53 Loole ku nongwa iya kuti uYeesu akabhuukagha ku Yelusaleemu, aBhasamaliiya bhakakaana ukumupokeela ukuti iikale mu kaaya kaabho. 54 Bhwo abhamanyili bhaake uYaakobhu nu Yoohani bhaapulika ukuti aBhasamaliiya bhaakaana ukubhapokeela mu kaaya kaabho, bhakakalala leka, bhakamubhuusha uYeesu bhakati, “Ghwe Malafyale, kali, kulonda tumusuume uChaala atume umulilo ghwike ukufuma kumwanya ukuti ghubhapembanie abhandu bhooshi [isa muumwo umusololi uEliiya akabhombela ku bhandu bhamu]?”✡9:54 1 Bhanyafyale 18:38; 2 Bhanyafyale 1:9-12 55 Loole uYeesu akabhasanukila nu kubhakemela.
