Nzambi
Mat 18:6-7, 21-22; Mlk 9:42
1 Yesu kawalongela wanahina zake, “Vinhu vondaviwatende wanhu watende nzambi volawilila, lakini kogaya munhu ija yovitenda vilawilile!
2 Yokuwa vinoga kwa munhu ayo yagodekigwe dibwe kulu da kudugila msingo na yasigwe mbahali, kubanza kumuhonza imoja wa wadodo wano yatende nzambi.
3 Avo iteganyeni!
“Ndugu yako yahakutendela nzambi, umzume. Yahatogola, gela kumgongo.
4 Yahakutendela nzambi miyanza saba kwa siku dimoja, na kila yaheza kumwako kolonga, ‘Ng'hosa,’ kolondeka ugele kumgongo.”
Tamanilo
5 Watumigwa wamulongela Mndewa, “Twengezele tamanilo.”
6 Mndewa kawedika, “Maza tamanilo jenu dahakuwile dodo kamba mbeyu ndodo ya haladali, mwahadahile kuulongela mbiki uno wa mkuyu, ‘Ng'oka ukaihande mbahali!’ nao wahawatogolele.
Sang'hano ya msang'hanaji
7 “Vino nani kumwenu yeli na msang'hanaji yomulimila hebu kosusila ng'hondolo, yahabwela kumgunda, komulongela yalopole kuja lujo lwake?
8 Bule. Lakini komulongela, ‘Uitande, nitandile lujo lwangu, unisang'hanile mbaka ng'homeleze kuja na kung'wa, abaho na gweye koja na kung'wa.’
9 Vino komgwaa nhogolwa msang'hanaji ayo kwavija kasang'hana gaja galagilizigwe?
10 Vivo ili kumwenu mweye, mwahatenda vose vimulagilizigwe, longeni, ‘Tweye twa wasang'hanaji wadodo, tusang'hana kija kitulondigwe kusang'hana!’ ”
Yesu kowahonya wanhu longo

12 Viyakalile kokwingila mna ikijiji kimoja, mumo kukala na wanhu longo wakalile na utamu wa dikulu, wemile kutali.
13 Waguta, “Go mkulu! Yesu! Tonele bazi!”
14 Yesu kawona, kawalongela, “Gendeni mkailaguse kwa walava nhosa.”
Viwakalile mnzila wochola, wahona.
15 Imoja wao viyone kahona, kabweleganya kwa Yesu kuno komgwaa nhogolwa Mulungu kwa sauti ng'hulu.
16 Kamgwila Yesu mmagulu kingubanguba, kamtogola. Munhu ayo kakala Msamalia.
17 Yesu kalonga, “Vino hawakalile wanhu longo wahonyigwe? Wayagwe tisa wa kwahi?
18 Vino kuduhu iyagwe yabwelile kumgwaa nhogolwa Mulungu, ila munhu ino hali muyahudi?”
19 Abaho Yesu kamulongela munhu ija, “Ima na uchole. Kutamanila kwako kukuhonya.”
Kwiza kwa Undewa wa Mulungu
Mat 24:23-28, 37-41
20 Mafalisayo wayagwe wamuuza Yesu Undewa wa Mulungu vondawize. Yesu kawedika, “Undewa wa Mulungu hawiza kwa kukoneka kwa meso.
21 Kuduhu munhu yonda yalonge, ‘Lola, uno hano!’ hebu ‘Uja haja!’ Kwavija Undewa wa Mulungu wa mgati mmwenu.”
22 Abaho kawalongela wanahina zake, “Kipindi chokwiza vonda mulonde kuyona siku imoja mwiizisiku za Mwana wa Munhu, lakini hondamuyone bule.
23 Baho wanhu wowalongela, ‘Loleni kakuja!’ hebu ‘Loleni, kahano!’ Sekemuwakweleleze.
24 Kwavija kamba vija lumwesa vilulawilila kuulanga na kumwemwesa kulawa mwambu umoja mbaka mwambu uyagwe, vivo vondayawe Mwana wa Munhu mwiisiku yake.
25 Lakini tanhu kolondeka yadununzike ng'hani na kulemigwa na wanhu wa lukolo luno.
26 Kamba viikalile mna ikipindi cha Nuhu, vivo vondaiwe mzisiku za Mwana wa Munhu.
27 Kila munhu kakala koja na kung'wa, kusola na kusoligwa mbaka siku ija Nuhu viyengile mdisafina. Mvula ng'hulu itowa na kuwakoma wanhu wose.
28 Vivija kamba viilawilile mna ikipindi cha Lutu. Wanhu wagendelela kuja na kung'wa, kugula na kuchuuza, kuhanda na kuzenga.
29 Lakini siku ija Lutu viyasegele Sodoma, moto na mabwe gokwaka vilagala hasi na kuwakoma wose.
30 Vivo vondaiwe mwiisiku Mwana wa Munhu vonda yagubuligwe.
31 “Mwiisiku ayo, munhu yeli mkiswili cha ng'anda yake sekeyahumuluke mng'anda kusola vinhu vake, vivija munhu yeli kumgunda sekeyabwele ukayake.
32 Kumbukeni gampatile mwehe wake Lutu.
33 Munhu yoyose yolonda kuukombola ugima wake mwenyego, kowagiza, na yoyose yowagiza ugima wake, koukombola.
34 Nowalongela, kilo acho wanhu wabili wawasile mulusazi lumoja, imoja kosoligwa na iyagwe kolekigwa.
35 Watwanzi wabili woduga sembe hamoja, imoja kosoligwa na iyagwe kolekigwa.
36 Wanhu wabili wokuwa kumgunda, imoja kosoligwa na iyagwe kolekigwa.”
37 Wanahina zake wamuuza, “Vino, kwahi Mndewa?”
Yesu kawedika, “Kokose kuli na mzoga, baho honda waiting'hane mhungu.”
