1 Pi ishiku lila lila, uYeesu akatiila mu nyumba yila, akaya iikala ku chiseese kwa sumbi. 2 Ifilundilo ifyingi ifya bhandu fikiisa nu kubhungaana paapo uYeesu akabha, po umwene akakwela mu bhwato nu kwikala mula mula. Abhandu bhala bhakashaala bhiimite ku chiseese kwa sumbi. 3 Po uYeesu akabhabhuula amashu amingi ku sila iya kubhombela ififwanikisho akati, “Umulimi yumo akabhuuka pakupesa imbeyu shaake. 4 Bhwo ali pakupesa, imbeyu shimo shikaghwa mu sila, utuyuni tukiisa nu kushilya. 5 Imbeyu inine shikaghwa pi ilongwi liilyo likabha ni lyalabhwe paase. Imbeyu isho shikamela lubhilo. Loole ku nongwa iya kuti ilongwi likabha linandi pamwanya, 6 bhwo akamu kaabhala, imbeyu isho shikafwoka nu kwuma ku nongwa iya kuti imishu yaake yikabha pamwanyaashe. 7 Imbeyu inine shikaghwa pakati pa myifwa. Bhwo imbeyu shila shaanda ukukula, imyifwa yoope yikakula lubhilo nu kushishighila imbeyu. 8 Imbeyu inine shikaghwa pi ilongwi ilyisa. Po bhwo shaaghoma, shimo shikeela iseke imya yimo (100), inine shikeela amalongo mahaano na limo (60) ni nine shikeela amalongo matatu (30). 9 Umundu ghweshi yuuyo ali ni fyufwo, apulikishange nu kushaaghania!”

10 Abhamanyili abha Yeesu bhakiisa nu kumubhuusha bhakati, “Kali, kooni kubhombela ififwanikisho linga kuyugha na bhandu?” 11 Akabhaamula akati, “UChaala abhasetuliile umwe ukushimanya isha ku bhushiifu isha chitangalala chaake, loole abheene atabhabhaghishiishe ukushimanya shooshi isho. 12 Paapo umundu yuuyo akufipulika ifimanyisho fyangu nu kufyaghania, uChaala akumwafwa nu kumwongela ukushaaghania ngaani. Loole yuuyo atakufipulika nu kufyaghania, uChaala akumupoka na kanandi kaako akukaaghania. 13 Yo yiiyo nongwa iyi ingubhombela ififwanikisho linga inguyugha nabho, paapo bhakushitesha shiisho ingubhomba, loole bhatakushibhona, bhakushipulika shiisho inguyugha, loole bhatakushaaghania. 14 Ishi shikubhombighwa kukwabho ukuti shibhoneke shiisho umusololi uYesaaya akasimba ukuti,

16 “Loole uChaala abhasayite umwe, paapo amaaso ghiinyu ghakutesha ni fyufwo fyinyu fikupulika. 17 Nalooli ingubhabhuula ukuti bhakabhaapo abhasololi na bhagholofu abhingi bhaabho bhakanyonywanga ukushibhona shiisho mukushibhona umwe, loole bhatakashibhonagha. Bhakanyonywanga ukupulika shiisho mukushipulika umwe, loole bhatakashipulikagha.”

18 “Po umwe pulikisha ilingaanio ilya chifwanikisho icha mupesa mbeyu icho. 19 Umundu ghweshi yuuyo akulipulika ishu ilya Chaala loole atakulyaghania, uMubhiibhi yula akwisa nu kulinyaghula ishu liilyo uChaala alibhyalite mu ndumbula yaake. Umundu uyo agheliile ni mbeyu yiiyo yikaghwa mu sila. 20 Imbeyu shiisho shikaghwa pi ilongwi liilyo likabha ni lyalabhwe paase, shigheliile nu mundu yuuyo akupulika ishu ilya Chaala, nakalinga akulipokeela ku lusekelo. 21 Loole ku nongwa iya kuti ataa ni mishu mukati yaake, ishu ilyo likubhaamwo ku kabhalilo akapimbaashe. Linga indamyo pamu ukutaamighwa kwamwagha ku nongwa iya lishu ilya Chaala, nakalinga akulileka. 22 Imbeyu shiisho shikaghwa pakati pa myifwa, shigheliile nu mundu yuuyo akupulika ishu ilya Chaala. Loole ku nongwa iya kwinongʼona ngaani isha mu chiisu ichi pamu ukushimbulighwa ni finyonywa ifya bhukabhi pamu ukubha nu tundu utwingi, fyoshi ifyo fikulishighila ishu ukuti manye lipaapaghe iseke. 23 Loole imbeyu shila shiisho shikaghwa pi ilongwi ilyisa, shigheliile nu mundu yuuyo akulipulika ishu ilya Chaala nu kulyaghania. Umundu uyo ghwe yuuyo akupaapa iseke shimo imya yimo (100), inine amalongo mahaano na limo (60) ni nine amalongo matatu (30).”

24 UYeesu akabhabhuula ichifwanikisho ichinine akati, “Ichitangalala icha kumwanya chigheliile nu mundu yuuyo akapesa imbeyu inyiisa mu mughunda ghwake. 25 Loole bhwo abhandu bhooshi bhaapitila, umulughu ghwake akiisa aabhyala ichiposo mu ngano, po akabhuuka. 26 Bhwo ingano iyo yaamela nu kwanda ukwela iseke, ichiposo chila choope chikamela. 27 Abhabhombi abha mwene mughunda bhakiisa pakumubhuusha bhakati, ‘Ghwe malafyale, tumeenye ukuti ukapesa imbeyu inyiisa mu mughunda ghwako, kali, po ichiposo chila chifumite kuughu?’ 28 Akabhaamula akati, ‘Umulughu ghwe yuuyo abhombite ishi.’ Abhabhombi bhaake bhakamubhuusha bhakati, ‘Kali, kulonda tuye twipe?’ 29 Ghwepe akati, ‘Nashiku, manye mwipaghe paapo linga mukwipa ichiposo, mubhaghiile mwipe pamupeene ni ngano. 30 Fileke fyoshi fikulaghe pamupeene ukufika mu kabhalilo aka kwinula. Mu kabhalilo ako, indiingabhabhuule abhiinuli ukuti bhabhungaanie taashi ichiposo nu kuchipinya mu ngosa ukuti bhachipembe. Loole ingano bhayibhungaanie nu kuyisengula mu ighulu lyangu.’ ”

31 UYeesu akabhabhuula ichifwanikisho ichinine akati, “Ichitangalala icha kumwanya chigheliile ni mbeyu inandi iya nambamba yiiyo umundu akeegha nu kupesa mu mughunda ghwake. 32 Imbeyu iyi nandi leka ukukinda imbeyu inine shooshi, loole linga yaamela nu kukula po yikubha ngulu ukukinda imbeyu shooshi isha libhogha shiisho shili mu chibheela. Imbeyu iyo yikubha ungati likokwe ikulu liilyo utuyuni tukwisa nu kutenga ififumbo mu tusamba twake.”

33 UYeesu akayugha ichifwanikisho ichinine akati, “Ichitangalala icha kumwanya chigheliile ni nyambo inandi yiiyo umukolo yumo akeegha nu kwongaania nu bhufu ubhwingi ubhwa kuyiilana utupombo tutatu. Pabhumalilo, inyambo inandi yila yikalulisha ubhufu bhwoshi bhula.”

34 UYeesu akachibhuulagha ichilundilo icha bhandu isho shooshi ukubhombela ififwanikisho. Atakayughagha naalimo kukwabho chishita kubhombela ichifwanikisho. 35 Isho shikabhombighwa ukuti ishu lila libhombighwe liilyo umusololi akayugha ukuti,

36 Po uYeesu akachilagha ichilundilo icha bhandu chila, akiingila mu nyumba. Abhamanyili bhaake bhakiisa, bhakamubhuula bhakati, “Tulingaanie ilingaanio ilya chifwanikisho icha chiposo chila chiicho chikabha mu mughunda.”

37 UYeesu akabhaamula akati, “Umundu yula yuuyo akapesa imbeyu inyiisa agheliile nu Mwana ughwa Mundu. 38 Umughunda ghula ghugheliile ni chiisu, imbeyu inyiisa shila shigheliile na bhandu abha chitangalala icha Chaala ni chiposo chila chigheliile na bhandu abha Mubhiibhi yula. 39 Umulughu yuuyo akiisa pakupesa ichiposo agheliile nu Mubhiibhi yula. Ukwinula kugheliile ni ishiku ilya bhumalilo ilya bhulongi ubhwa chiisu. Abhiinuli bhagheliile na bhandumi abha Chaala. 40 Isa muumwo abhabhombi abha mu mughunda indibhakiipe nu kupemba ichiposo mu mulilo, mwo muumwo indishikabheele pi ishiku ilya bhumalilo ilya bhulongi ubhwa chiisu. 41 UMwana ughwa Mundu indiakabhatume abhandumi bhaake ukuti bhabhabhungaanie ukufuma ku chitangalala chaake abhandu bhooshi bhaabho bhakubhasofya abhanine ukuti bhabhombe imbiibhi na bhatulanongwa bhooshi. 42 Abhandumi abho indibhakabhataaghe abhandu bhooshi abho mu mulilo ughwa bhwila na bhwila ughwa Yehanamu muumwo indibhakalilaghe nu kushesheetusha amiino ku nongwa iya bhubhafu ubhukali. 43 Po abhandu bhooshi bhaabho bhabhaghile pandaashi pa Chaala, indibhakaakaghe ungati lisubha ku chitangalala chaake. Umundu ghweshi yuuyo ali ni fyufwo, apulikishange nu kushaaghania!”

44 “Ichitangalala icha kumwanya chigheliile na kandu aka mutengo umukulu kaako kakafifighwa mu mughunda. Bhwo umundu yumo aakaagha, akakafifa soona. Po ku lusekelo, akabhuuka nu kughulisha ifindu fyoshi fiifyo akabha nafyo, akaghula umughunda ghula.

45 “Soona, ichitangalala icha kumwanya chigheliile nu muchulushi yumo yuuyo akabhuuka pakulonda iyondo ilya mutengo umukulu ngaani. 46 Bhwo aalyagha iyondo limo ilya mutengo umukulu ngaani, akabhuuka nu kughulisha ifindu fyoshi fiifyo akabha nafyo, akiisa, akalighula.”

47 “Soona, ichitangalala icha kumwanya chigheliile ni chilepa chiicho abhalobha iswi bhakachiponia mwa sumbi. Bhwo bhaachiponia, ichilepa chila chikakola iswi isha luko nu luko. 48 Bhwo ichilepa chila chiisula, abhalobha iswi bhakachighuusila ku chiseese kwa sumbi. Po bhakiikala paase nu kubhungaania iswi inyiisa mu fipombo, loole bhakashitaagha iswi imbiibhi. 49 Umwo mwo muumwo indishikabheele pi ishiku ilya bhulongi ubhwa chiisu. Abhandumi abha Chaala indibhakiise nu kubhapaaghulania abhandu abhatulanongwa mu bhaabho bhabhaghile pandaashi pa Chaala. 50 Abhandumi abho indibhakabhataaghe abhatulanongwa mu mulilo ughwa bhwila na bhwila ughwa Yehanamu muumwo indibhakalilaghe nu kushesheetusha amiino ku nongwa iya bhubhafu ubhukali.”

51 UYeesu akabhabhuusha abhamanyili bhaake akati, “Kali, mwashaaghania shooshi isho naabhabhuula?” Bhoope bhakamwamula bhakati, “Twashaaghania.” 52 Ghwepe akabhaamula akati, “Po umumanyishi ghweshi ughwa ndaghilo isha Moose yuuyo akubha mumanyili mu chitangalala icha kumwanya, agheliile nu mwene nyumba yuuyo akufumya mu chuuma chaake ifindu ifipya ni fikuulu.”

53 Bhwo uYeesu aamala ukuyugha ififwanikisho ifyo, akatiilaapo pala. 54 Bhwo aafika ku kaaya kuukwo akakulilagha, akaanda ukubhamanyisha abhandu mu sinaghoghi yaabho. Abhandu bhala bhakaswigha nu kubhuusania bhakati, “Kali, umundu uyu aghaaghite kuughu amahala agha na maka agha kubhomba ifyika ifi? 55 Kali, uyu ataa mwana ghwa mupulula matapwa? Kali, ungʼina ataa ghwi Maliiya? Kali, ataa ghwi ghwamwabho ughwa Yaakobhu, uYoosefu, uSiimoni nu Yuuta? 56 Kali, abhalumbu bhaake bhataa bho bhala tukwikala pamupeene nabho? Po kali, ashaaghite kuughu shooshi ishi?” 57 Po abhandu bhakiikinya nu kushita kumwitika. Loole uYeesu akabhabhuula akati, “Abhandu bhakumughindika umusololi kwoshi kula, loole abha mu chiisu chaake na bha mu nyumba yaake bhatakumughindika.” 58 Ku nongwa iya kuti abhandu bhala bhatakamwitika, uYeesu atakabhomba ifyika ifyingi kula.
