Awo Yesu n’agamba abayigirizwa be nti, “Waaliwo omusajja omugagga ng’alina omuwanika we amulabiririra ebintu bye. Ne wabaawo abaamuloopera nti omuwanika oyo yali asaasaanya ebintu bye, ng’abidiibuuda. 
Mukama we n’amuyita n’amubuuza nti, ‘Biki ebyo bye nkuwulirako? Kale genda otegeke lipoota y’ebintu byange nga bwe biri ogindeetere. Omulimu gukufudde.’ 
“Omuwanika n’alowooza mu mutima gwe, nga yeebuuza nti, ‘Kale kaakano nkole ntya? Mukama wange wuuno angoba ku mulimu. Sirina maanyi galima, n’okusabiriza kunkwasa ensonyi. 
Ekinaasobozesa abantu okunsembeza mu maka gaabwe, nga bwe ngobeddwa ku mulimu, nkifunye.’ 
“N’agenda ng’ayita buli eyalina ebbanja ku mukama we. Gwe yasookerako n’amubuuza nti, ‘Ebbanja mukama wange ly’akubanja lyenkana wa obunene?’ ” 
“Omusajja n’addamu nti, ‘Ammanja endebe z’omuzigo kikumi mu ataano.’ Omuwanika n’amugamba nti, ‘Kwako empapula zo kw’obanjirwa ogende owandiike endebe amakumi ataano.’ 
“Omuwanika n’adda ku wookubiri n’amubuuza nti, ‘Ggwe obanjibwa ki?’ “N’addamu nti, ‘Ebigera by’obuwunga bw’eŋŋaano kikumi.’ ” “Omuwanika n’amugamba nti, ‘Kwako empapula zo kw’obanjirwa, owandiike endala osseeko ebigera kinaana.’ 
“Mukama we n’atenda nnyo omuwanika we atali mwesigwa olw’obukalabakalaba bwe. Kubanga abaana b’omulembe guno bagezigezi okusinga abaana b’omusana ab’omu mulembe gwabwe.” 
“Era mbategeeza nti mwefunire emikwano mu bugagga obutali butuukirivu, bwe buliggwaawo balyoke babasembeze mu weema ezitaggwaawo. 
Omuntu omwesigwa mu kintu ekitono, abeera mwesigwa ne mu kinene; n’oyo ataba mwesigwa mu kitono era ne mu kinene taba mwesigwa. 
Kale obanga temwesigibwa mu bugagga obutali butuukirivu, ani agenda okubeesiga mu bugagga obw’amazima? 
Obanga toli mwesigwa ku by’omulala, kale ani alikwesiga n’akukwasa ebibyo? 
“Tewali muddu ayinza kuweereza bakulu babiri. Kubanga alikyawako omu n’ayagala omulala, oba aliwulirako omu n’anyooma omulala. Toyinza kuweereza Katonda na mamona.” 
Awo Abafalisaayo, abaali abaluvu b’ensimbi, bwe baawulira ebigambo ebyo ne banyooma Yesu. 
N’abagamba nti, “Mmwe mweraga mu bantu, naye Katonda amanyi emitima gyammwe. Okwerimbalimba kwammwe kubaweesa ekitiibwa mu maaso g’abantu, naye nga kya muzizo eri Katonda. 
“Yokaana Omubatiza bwe yali nga tannabuulira, amateeka n’obubaka bwa bannabbi byabuulirwa. Naye okuva olwo obwakabaka bwa Katonda bubuulirwa, ne buli muntu ayitibwa abuyingiremu mu bwangu ddala. 
Naye kyangu eggulu n’ensi okuggwaawo okusinga n’akatundu k’ennukuta emu ey’amateeka okuggwaawo. 
“Omusajja yenna agoba mukazi we n’awasa omulala aba ayenze; n’oyo awasa omukazi agobeddwa, naye aba ayenze.” 
Awo Yesu n’abagamba nti, “Waaliwo omusajja omugagga ennyo, eyayambalanga engoye ez’effulungu ne linena era bulijjo ng’abeera mu masanyu era ng’alya ebyassava. 
Waaliwo n’omusajja omwavu erinnya lye nga ye Laazaalo nga mulwadde ng’ajjudde amabwa ku mubiri gwe, eyateekebwanga ku mulyango gw’omusajja omugagga. 
Laazaalo ne yeegombanga okulya obukunkumuka obwagwanga wansi nga buva ku mmeeza ya nnaggagga. N’embwa zajjanga ne zikomberera amabwa ga Laazaalo. 
“Ekiseera kyatuuka omusajja omwavu n’afa, bamalayika ne bamutwala mu kifuba kya Ibulayimu. Oluvannyuma n’omugagga naye n’afa, n’aziikibwa. 
Naye ng’ali eyo mu magombe mu kubonaabona, n’atunula waggulu n’alaba Laazaalo ng’ali mu kifuba kya Ibulayimu. 
N’akoowoola nti, ‘Kitange Ibulayimu, nsaasira, ontumire Laazaalo oyo annyike olugalo Lwe mu mazzi, nkombeko, naye olulimi lumbabuukirira nnyo mu muliro guno ogumbonyaabonya!’ 
“Naye Ibulayimu n’amuddamu nti, ‘Mwana wange, jjukira nga mu biseera byo ng’okyali mulamu wafuna ebirungi bye weetaaganga, naye nga Laazaalo ye afuna bibi. Kaakano Laazaalo asanyusibwa naye gwe oli mu kubonaabona. 
Ate n’ekirala, wakati waffe nammwe waliwo olukonko luwanvu nnyo olutwawula, omuntu ali eno bw’ayagala okujja eyo akoma awo ku mugo gwalwo, n’oyo ali eyo ayagala okujja eno tasobola.’ 
“Awo nnaggagga n’ayaziirana nti, ‘Ayi kitange Ibulayimu, nkwegayiridde ntumira Laazaalo oyo mu maka ga kitange, 
kubanga nninayo abooluganda bataano, abandabulire, bwe balifa baleme kujja mu kifo kino ekirimu okubonaabona okwenkanidde wano.’ 
Naye Ibulayimu n’amugamba nti, ‘Balina Musa ne bannabbi, kale bawulire abo.’ 
“Omugagga n’addamu nti, ‘Nedda, kitange Ibulayimu, singa batumirwa omuntu ng’ava mu bafu, bajja kwenenya.’ 
“Awo Ibulayimu n’amugamba nti, ‘Obanga tebagondera Musa ne bannabbi, newaakubadde alizuukira okuva mu bafu talibakkirizisa.’ ”
