Pfii mwisemwa hala hanibenile pfighate pfitano kwe iwanu elufu tano? Tsammemetse ipfiseghe pfingapi ipfisighale? 10 Na apfila pfighate saba kwe iwanu elufu nne? Tsammemetse pfiseghe pfingapi ipfisighale? 11 Angu ng'ammanyile bae ka sing'ali nilonga tsimbuli tse pfighate? Mwalangitse ne hamila ya Mafarisayo na Masadukayo!”

(Maliki 8:27-30; Luka 9:18-21)
13 Yesu hayapfikile mne isi ye Kaisariya Filipi, kawaghutsa iwanang'ina wake “Angu iwanu wolonga Imwana we Imunu nani?” 14 Wamwidika, “Iwanu wangi wolonga Yohane Mbatitsa, wangi wolonga Eliya, wangi wolonga Yeremiya au yumwe wa nabii.”
15 Kawaghutsa, “Namwe mlongatse, mwolonga nene nani?”
16 Simoni Petiri kamwidika, “Ghweghwe kwa Kiristu Imkombotsi, Imwana we Imulungu iyali mghima!”
17 Yesu kamwidika, “Kubweda ghweghwe Simoni, imwana wa Yohane, kwaapfila achino chaulongile ng'ulangusighwe ne imunu bae, ila chilawila kwa Aba wangu iyali kulanga. 18 Na nene nokulongela, Petiri, ghweghwe kwa bambalawe na mchanya mwe bambalawe lino nitsotsenga kanisa lyangu, na hata lifwa ng'alitsodaha bae kulihinya. 19 Nitsokwing'a tsifughulo tsa undewa wa kulanga. Chinu chochose chauhinda muisi chitsohindighwa kulanga, na chochose chaufughula muisi, chitsofughulighwa kulanga.”
20 Kuya Yesu kawaghoma iwanang'ina wake waleke kuwalongela iwanu ka yeye tsakakala Kiristu Imkombotsi.
Yesu kolonga imbuli yake ya kughaya na ukufa
(Maliki 8:31-9:1; Luka 9:22-27)

22 Petiri kamsola Yesu hambalimbali kandusa kumkembela, “Bae, Imtwatsa! Aghano ghaleke kukulawila.”
23 Yesu kahunduka, kamlongela Petiri, “Uke kuchughu kwangu, Setani! Ghweghwe kwa ng'walo kuna nene, kwaapfila ghamawatso ghako ng'agholawa bae kwe Imulungu, ila gha chimunu.”
24 Kuya Yesu kawalongela iwanang'ina wake, “Imunu wowose iyobama kuniwinza, yeleme imwenyegho, yasole ghumsalaba ghwake yaniwinze. 25 Imunu wowose iyobama kuukombola ughima wake, katsowaghitsa, lekeni munu wowose iyowaghitsa ughima kwaajili yangu katsowona. 26 Apfi imunu katsobweda choni ang'apata isi yose, lekeni kowaghitsa ughima wake? Au imunu katsolapfa choni yapate keli ughima wake? 27 Kwaapfila Imwana we Imunu katsakutsa mne utunitso wa Aba wake hamwe ne malaika wake, kuya katsomghweka chila imunu kwa achila chayatendile. 28 Nowalongelani ghendo, iwanu wangi iwemile hano, ng'awatsokufa bae mbaka wamwone Imwana we Imunu kakutsa mne undewa wake.”
