Luka 12:17-23

¹⁷Tayili ywo, aganiyite pamwoyo wake, ‘Nilu'a panga buli na nenga ntu'pu' ligu'lu' lyo bi'kya ilyo yangu'?

¹⁸Nilu'a panga nyo, nilu'a sengwana tugu'lu' twangu' tuketuke no senga ligu'lu' liku'lu' amo nganilu'a bi'ka ilyo yangu' yoti yaniunike na mali yangu'.

¹⁹Apo, naubakia mwoyo wangu' panga pano le ubile na sobi'ki'ya, no tumya myaka yambone, no ponda mali bai, lya, nywa, no napusika.’

²⁰Lakini Nnu'ngu' ngammakia, ‘Wenga wa nnogeloge, kilo sa li'no, bwu'mi wako wendatolelwa. Na ili'be yi'lu' yoti yowitwi'li'kiye, ilu'a panga ya nyai?’”

²¹Yesu ayomoli kwo baya, “Amo ngamwabile mundu ywaitwi'li'ki'ya mali kwa makowe gake mwene bai, lakini nki'ba nnu'ngi' ya Nnu'ngu'.”

²²Bu'kapo Yesu aabakie banamasi' bake, “Kwa kitumbu so nendakummakianga, kanemube na kyukala ati' kilyo twapata kwaku', au alu'a kutuwalika nyai?

²³Kwa mwanjaa nantali bwu'mi kulikoni kilyo, yi'ga nantali kuliko ngu'bo.
