19 Kuya nitselongela mwenyegho; 'Ghwe ghumoyo ghwangu! Kwinapfo ipfinu pfingi kwa miyaka mingi. Bwihila ghwe; uje, unwe na udeng'elele!’
20 Lekeni Imulungu kamlongela imunu tajiri, ‘Kwambotsi ghweghwe! Chilo chichino ughima wako utsobamighwa! Pfinu pfawikile pfitsakuwa pfa nani?’ ”
21 Yesu kalonga, “Apfi pfipfo pfapfitsakuwa kwe imunu wowose yeikile utajiri imwenyegho, lekeni ng'akwika bae utajiri kwe Imulungu.”
22 Kuya Yesu kawalongela iwanang'ina wake, “Mleke kughaya na ukwalangula kwe ichijo chambama ili mkale waghima, au ghamaghwanda ghambama kwa ng'uli tsenu.
23 Kwaapfila ughima unogha kubita ichijo na lukuli lunogha kubita maghwanda.
