1 Po uYeesu akabhabhuula soona abhamanyili bhaake akati, “Akabhaakwo umukabhi yumo yuuyo akabha nu mwimilili ughwa chuuma chaake. Ishiku limo umukabhi uyo akapulika ukuti umwimilili ghwake uyo akabhombelagha akabhiibhi ichuuma chaake. 2 Po umukabhi yula akamwitisha umwimilili yula. Bhwo iisa, akamubhuusha akati, ‘Kali, sha nalooli shiisho ingupulika abhandu bhakukuyugha ughwe? Indangishe imbelengelo isha muumwo ukabhiile na muumwo ubhombiile ichuuma changu, paapo utaaghwendelele ukubha mwimilili ughwa chuuma changu soona.’

3 “Po umwimilili yula akiibhuusha mu ndumbula yaake akati, ‘Kali, imbombe kooni? Usongo ghwangu indiaangiishe pa mbombo yangu. Une indabhaghiile ukulima paapo amaka ghangu mapepe, soona ingufwa isoni ukubha musuumilishi. 4 Naamanya muumwo indiimbombe ukuti linga usongo ghwangu aangiisha pa mbombo, abhandu bhakaambokeelaghe mu nyumba shaabho.’

5 “Po umwimilili yula akabhiitisha abhandu bhooshi bhaabho usongo ghwake akabhamelelagha. Bhwo bhiisa, akamubhuusha ughwa bhwandilo akati, ‘Kali, usongo ghwangu akukumelela iliita shilinga isha nyemba isha mishunguti?’ 6 Akamwamula akati, ‘Usongo ghwako akuumelela amalebhe imya shibhili (200) agha mafuta agha nyemba isha mishunguti.’ Po umwimilili akamubhuula akati, ‘Eegha lubhilo ukalata uyu yuuyo fisimbiighwe fiifyo usongo ghwangu akukumelela, simba ukuti akukumelela amalebhe imya yimo (100).’ 7 Umwimilili yula akamubhuusha umundu ughwa bhubhili akati, ‘Kali, nuughwe usongo ghwangu akukumelela amaghunila malinga agha ngano?’ Umwene akamwamula akati, ‘Usongo ghwako akuumelela amaghunila imya yimo (100) agha ngano.’ Umwimilili yula akamubhuula akati, ‘Eegha ukalata uyu yuuyo fisimbiighwe fiifyo usongo ghwangu akukumelela, simba ukuti akukumelela amaghunila amalongo mahaano na matatu (80).’

8 “Bhwo umukabhi yula aapulika isho, akamupaala leka umwimilili ghwake ku nongwa iya bhuchefu bhwake. Umwo mwo muumwo abhandu bhaabho bhatakumwitika uChaala mu chiisu ichi bhachefu leka linga bhakubhomba imbombo shaabho ukukinda bhaabho bhakumwitika uChaala.” 9 UYeesu akeendelela ukuyugha akati, “Nalooli ingubhabhuula, bhombelagha ichuuma icha pa chiisu panu ukubhaafwa abhandu abhapootwe ukuti bhakabhe bhamanyani bhiinyu. Ku sila iyo, linga ichuuma icho chaashila, indibhakabhapokeele ku bhwikalo ubhwa bhwila na bhwila.

10 “Umundu ghweshi yuuyo musubhaalilighwa ku tundu utunandi, akubha musubhaalilighwa na ku tundu utwingi. Loole umundu ghweshi yuuyo ataa musubhaalilighwa ku tundu utunandi, atakubha musubhaalilighwa na ku tundu utwingi. 11 Po linga umwe mutaa bhasubhaalilighwa ukuchibhombela ichuuma icha pa chiisu panu, kali, ghwini yuuyo abhaghiile ukubhapa ichuuma icha nalooli? 12 Soona linga umwe mutaa bhasubhaalilighwa ukuchibhombela ichuuma icha mundu umunine, kali, ghwini yuuyo abhaghiile ukubhapa ichuuma ichiinyu yumwemwe? 13 Ataliipo umubhombi yuuyo abhaghiile ukubhabhombela abhomalafyale bhabhili ku kabhalilo kamukeene. Paapo abhaghiile ukumughana umalafyale yumo nu kwifumya kukwake nu kumufuuya umunine. Mutabhaghiile ukumubhombela uChaala ni ndalama ku kabhalilo kamukeene!”

14 Pabhuyo bhula pakabhaapo na Bhafalisaayi bhamu. Abheene bhakashighana leka indalama. Po bhwo bhaapulika uYeesu akuyugha isho, bhakamusekela ku lufuuyo. 15 Po uYeesu akabhabhuula akati, “Umwe mukwibhiika ukubha bhandu bhaabho bhakubhomba shiisho shibhaghiile pandaashi pa bhandu, loole uChaala ameenye shiisho shiliimwo mu ndumbula shiinyu. Paapo utundu tula tuutwo abhandu bhakutughindika ngaani, uChaala akutubhona utundu utwo ukubha mikooko.”

16 UYeesu akeendelela ukuyugha akati, “Indaghilo isha Moose na Masimbo aMeelu agha bhasololi fikabhalongoshanga abhandu ukufika mu kabhalilo kaako uYoohani uMwoshi akiisagha pakulumbilila ishu ilya Chaala. Ukwandila mu kabhalilo ako, iNongwa iNyiisa isha chitangalala icha Chaala shikulumbililighwa. Po ghweshi umundu akwingila ku maka mu chitangalala icho. 17 Loole kupepe ngaani kumwanya ni chiisu ukutiila ukukinda isimbo limo ukutiila mu ndaghilo isha Chaala.

18 “Umundu ghweshi yuuyo akumusoosha umukashi nu kwegha umukolo umunine, akushipana. Soona, umundu ghweshi yuuyo akumwegha umukolo yuuyo asookite, akushipana.”

19 UYeesu akeendelela ukuyugha akati, “Akabhaakwo umundu yumo umukabhi. Umundu uyo akafwalagha imyenda iya mandongomela iya mutengo ni myenda iminine imyisa iya mutengo umukulu. Soona akabhiikagha ulusekelo mu nyumba yaake lyoshi ishiku nu kupiiya ifindu ifya mutengo umukulu. 20 Pa mulyango umukulu ughwa nyumba yaake pakabhaapo umundu yumo yuuyo ingamu yaake akabha ghwi Laasalo. ULaasalo akabha mupiina leka, soona akabha ni filonda umubhili ghwoshi. 21 Ku nongwa iya bhupiina, uLaasalo akanyonyangwa ukulya utubhululusha utwa findu tuutwo tukaghwanga paase ukufuma pa meesa yiiyo umukabhi yula akalilaghaapo. Soona na bhokabhwa bhakabhuukagha kwa Laasalo nu kumumyanda ifilonda fyake.

22 “Ishiku limo uLaasalo akafwa. Bhwo aafwa, abhandumi abha Chaala bhakamwegha, bhakabhuuka naghwe nu kumubhiika mu tukono utwa Abhulahamu. Po umundu umukabhi yula ghwepe akafwa. Bhwo aafwa, abhandu bhakabhuuka pakumushiila. 23 Po umukabhi yula akafika ku bhushuuka, akaanda ukutaamighwa leka. Bhwo ali pakutaamighwa, akatesha nu kumubhona uAbhulahamu pabhutali, soona akamubhona nu Laasalo ali papiipi nu Abhulahamu. 24 Po umukabhi yula akiitisha ku ishu ilya pamwanya akati, ‘Ghwe taata Abhulahamu, ingukusuuma ghuumbelele ichisa, soona ingukusuuma umutume uLaasalo ukuti ayubhike akaana aka kakono kaake mu miishi, iise aposhe ululimi lwangu ku nongwa iya kuti indi pakutaamighwa leka mu mulilo ughu.’

25 “Loole uAbhulahamu akamwamula akati, ‘Ghwe mwana ghwangu, kumbuka ukuti akabhalilo kaako ukabha pa chiisu, ukatwaghagha utundu twoshi utwisa tuutwo ukatulondagha, loole uLaasalo akatwaghagha utubhiibhi. Loole ku kabhalilo aka, uLaasalo ali pa lusekelo ulukulu, nuughwe uli pa ndamyo ingulu. 26 Pamupeene ni isho, pakati papiitu nuumwe yibhiikiighwe imbanga ingulu yiiyo ndali leka ukuti abhandu bhaabho bhakulonda ukulobhoka ukufuma kukwitu nu kwisa kukwinyu, bhapootwange. Soona ukuti abhandu bhaabho bhakulonda ukulobhoka ukufuma kukwinyu nu kwisa kukwitu, bhapootwange.’

27 “Umundu yula yuuyo akabha mukabhi akamusuuma uAbhulahamu akati, ‘Ghwe taata, linga bhwo shili, po ingukusuuma umutume uLaasalo abhuuke kukaaya kwa taata, 28 paapo indi nabho abhoghwamwitu bhahaano. Linga aabhaagha, abhasoke, bhashileke imbiibhi shaabho ukuti bhoope manye bhakiise pabhuyo ubhwa ndamyo ingulu ubhu.’ 29 Loole uAbhulahamu akamwamula akati, ‘Nashiku, indabhaghiile ukubhomba ulwo paapo abhoghwamwinyu bhaghapulikite amashu ghaagho ghasimbiighwe mu bhokalata abha Moose na bha bhasololi abha Chaala. Po bhashikongaghe shiisho shisimbiighwe mu bhokalata abho.’

30 “Umundu yula akayugha soona akati, ‘Nashiku taata Abhulahamu! Loole linga umundu aafuma ku bhafwe, aabhuuka pakubhasoka, po indibhapinduke nu kwilaata nu kushileka imbiibhi shaabho.’ 31 UAbhulahamu akamwamula akati, ‘Linga bhatakushiitika shiisho shisimbiighwe mu bhokalata abha Moose na bha bhasololi abha Chaala, nalinga umundu ashuuke, abhuuke pakubhasoka, poope bhatabhaghiile ukwilaata imbiibhi shaabho.’ ”
