1 Nga Yesu aniina mu lyato, asomoha enyanja atiina mu hibuga hyʼewaawe. 2 Ngʼaŋo ŋabaŋo abasinde abaŋira omuutu owaali nʼasanyalaaye ni bamugegire hu musigaasiga. Yesu ni gabona ohufugiirira hwawe, ngʼaloma omulwaye ati, “Mwana wange oteŋendeherera, kusoniŋire ebibi bibyo.”

3 Mu hiseera ehyo, ŋaaliŋo abasomesa bʼamagambi ga Hatonda abaali ni behaaye aŋo baaŋulira ebibono ebi Yesu gaaloma, nga baloma abeene nʼabeene baati, “Aŋanga atye ohuloma atyo? Ohwo huba hufodogola.”

4 Ŋaweene aŋo nga Yesu afaania mu mwoyo gugwe ebyali mu biŋeego byawe. Ngʼababuusa ati, “Lwahiina mufugiirira epeega embi ohuba mu myoyo jenywe? 5 Ehihiraho owangu njʼehiri ŋeena, ohuloma ti ‘Kusoniŋire ebibi bibyo,’ oba ti, ‘Yinyoha ogende’? 6 Ŋaahani nja hubalaga ti Omwana wʼOmuutu ali nʼobuŋangi hu hyalo ohusoniŋa ebibi.” Ngʼaloma owaali nʼasanyalaaye oyo ati, “Yinyoha ogege omusigaasiga gugwo wagameyo ewenywe.” 7 Ŋaweene aŋo ngʼomusinde oyo genyoha, aŋamba omusigaasiga gugwe atiina engo. 8 Ngʼabaatu bosibosi beŋunja era nga bajumirya Hatonda aŋa abaatu obuŋangi hyʼobwo.

9 Yesu ni gaali naŋwa mu hifo aŋa gaŋonehesya omuutu owaali nʼasanyalaaye, ngʼabona omuŋoosa oyu balanganga baati Matayo ni gehaaye aŋa baŋoosesa nʼaŋoosa. Nga Yesu amuloma ati, “Nja ofuuhe mwegi wange.” Ngʼebyo byosibyosi Matayo abiŋwaho, genyoha atiina ni Yesu.

10 Ebyo ni byaŋwa, nga Yesu atiina nʼabeegi babe ewa Matayo ohulya. Omutoolo gwʼabaŋoosa nʼabaatu abandi “abahosi bʼebibi,” boosi batiinayo. Nga bosibosi beehala ni Yesu nʼabeegi babe, baliira ŋalala.*9:10 Luk 15:1-2 11 Abafalisaayo ni babona Yesu nʼalya nʼabaatu abo “abahosi bʼebibi” nʼabaŋoosa nga babuusa abeegi babe baati, “Lwahiina alya nʼabaatu ‘abahosi bʼebibi’ nʼabaŋoosa?”

12 Yesu ni gaŋulira ehi babuusa, nga niye abaloma ati, “Abaatu abalamu sibetaaga musaŋu, ohutusaho abalwaye. 13 Aye mutiine mwendule amahulu gʼehyaŋandiihiwa ehiroma hiiti; ‘Nenda ehisa sosi eŋongo.’ Olwʼehyo mbaloma ti sinaaja hulanga abalaŋi, ohutusaho abahosi bʼebibi.”*9:13 Kos 6:6

14 Ngʼaŋo abeegi ba Yowaane batiina eyiri Yesu bamubuusa baati, “Lwahiina efe nʼAbafalisaayo husiiba, aye abeegi babo sibasiiba?”

15 Nga Yesu abagobolamo ati, “Abalange hu mbaga yʼobugole baŋanga ohunakuŋala ahooye omweŋa nʼahiiri ni nabo? Aye ehiseera hiryola babatusaho ahooye omweŋa. Hu olwo njʼolu balitandiha ohusiiba.

16 “Omuutu saahubba hiŋero ehyʼolugoye olunyaaha mu hyambalo ehihayire. Olwohuba ehiŋero ehyo ni hyehuuna, hihapuha ohuŋwa hu lugoye olwo oluhayire hyaŋiriraho nʼehimesu hyalwo, ngʼehituli hyeyongera ohugalama. 17 Mu ngeri njʼenyene, sibajuha mwenge epiiraŋo ogwomu mizabbibbu mu saŋu yʼehyanjo ekayire. Singa ohihola, yadisa esaŋu ngʼobifiirwa byombi. Aye omwenge epiiraŋo ogwo, bagujuha mu saŋu yʼehyanjo epyaha ko ndʼobifiirwe byombi.”

18 Yesu ni gaali nʼahiiroma, nga jireeta mulala hu bahulu bʼehumbaaniro lyʼAbayudaaya oyu baali ni balanga baati Yayiro. Yayiro oyo gatiina ngʼahubba amafuha mu moni jije, amwegalihira bugali nʼamuloma ati, “Muhulu ahahaana hange hahaŋwa ohufa, nja oje ohaŋambeho hanalamuhe.” 19 Ngʼaŋo Yesu nʼabeegi babe benyoha batiina ni naye.

20 Ŋaaliŋo omuhasi owaali nʼalwaye oluheeŋo ohuhena emyaha ehumi nʼebiri. Ngʼaŋo geyibirira aŋwera egongo wa Yesu aŋamba hu hyambalo hihye. 21 Hino gahihola olwohuba gaaloma mu mwoyo gugwe ati, “Ni naŋambe huŋambaho hu hyambalo hihye, naaŋone.”

22 Nga Yesu acuuha amubona amuloma ati, “Muhaana, ba mugumu! Ohufugiirira huhwo huhuŋonisye.” Ngʼomuhasi oyo aŋona mu haseera aho.

23 Yesu ni goola mu mago gʼomuhulu ola oyu balanga baati Yayiro, gengira mu nyumba, ngʼabona abembi nʼemirere ni bali huhooha enyembo eji bemba omuutu nʼafuuye, nʼabaatu bosibosi abaaliŋo ni bali hulira ni bahubba nʼenduulu olwʼohufa hwʼomuhaana oyo. 24 Ngʼabaloma ati, “Mutule ebulafu, omuhaana saafe, aye ali huŋenyuha.” Aye nibo bamujeherera humujeherera, olwohuba baali bamanyire baati omuhaana gaali afuuye. 25 Ni bahena ohutusa ehiŋindi hyʼabaatu ebulafu, nga Yesu gengira aŋamba omuhaana hu muhono, ngʼomuhaana gemeerera. 26 Amaŋuliro agaŋamba huhulamuha hwʼomuhaana oyo gahwana mu twale eryo lyosiryosi.

27 Yesu ni gaali nʼaŋwa mu hifo ehyo, abasinde babiri abaali abaŋofu bamulondaho ni balomera ŋamugulu baati, “Mwijuhulu wa Dawudi, tuŋambire ehisa otuŋonie!”

28 Ŋaahani Yesu ni gengira mu nyumba, abaŋofu abo boosi batiina aŋa gaali, ngʼababuusa ati, “Mufugiirira muuti sobola ohubaŋonia?” Nga bamugobolamo baati, “Musengwa, hufugiirira!” 29 Ngʼaŋo aŋamba hu moni jaawe, abaloma ati, “Hahibe hiityo olwʼohufugiirira hwenywe.” 30 Ŋaweene aŋo ngʼemoni jʼabasinde abo jirimbula batandiha ohubona. Nga Yesu abalabula nʼabahutiira ati, “Mumanya ohutalomeraho muutu yesiyesi!” 31 Aye nibo baatula, batiina bahwania mu twale eryo lyosiryosi amaŋuliro agaŋamba hu Yesu.

32 Abasinde abo ni baali ni batula ebulafu, nga ŋabaaŋo abaleetera Yesu omusinde owaaliho omusambwa nataŋanga nʼohuloma. 33 Yesu ni gabbinga omusambwa ogwo, omusinde oyo gatandiha ohuloma ngʼehiŋindi hyʼabaatu abaali aŋo beŋunja. Era nga baloma baati, “Hino hubaaye sihuhibonangaho mu Yisirayiri!” 34 Aye Abafalisaayo baaloma baati, “Abbinga emisambwa nʼatambisa obuŋangi wa Bbeluzebbuli omuhulu wʼemisambwa.”*9:34 Mat 10:25; 12:24; Mar 3:22; Luk 11:15

35 Yesu gagenda mu bibuga byosibyosi nomu byalo nʼasomesa mu mahumbaaniro gʼAbayudaaya, nʼabuulira Amaŋuliro Amalaŋi agaŋamba hu buŋugi wa Hatonda. Era nʼaŋonia hiisi bulwaye.*9:35 Mat 4:23; Mar 1:39; Luk 4:44 36 Yesu ni gabona ehiŋindi hyʼabaatu ni hihumbeene, nga bamuŋambya ehisa olwohuba baali beŋendehereye ni ŋabulaŋo owʼohubayeeda era ni baali hyʼetaama ejiŋumaho mwayi.*9:36 Hub 27:17; 1 Bah 22:17; 2 Liŋo 18:16; Ezek 34:5 37 Ngʼaŋo aloma abeegi babe ati, “Abaatu abaja ohufugiirira Amaŋuliro Amalaŋi bangi era bali hyʼebirime ebyolire ohuhungula aye abatambi sibahena.*9:37 Luk 10:2 38 Olwʼehyo, musunge Hatonda Musengwa omwene ndimiro asindihemo abatambi.”
