Luka 12:4-21

⁴“Nowalongela sale tsangu, mleke kuwapfuka iwanu wala iwolukoma lukuli, lekeni ng'awodaha bae kutenda ichinu chochose chihile.

⁵Nitsowalangusa yuhi wa kumpfuka. Mumpfuke Imulungu, hayomalitsa kukoma kodaha kumwasa imunu jehanamu. Nowalongela, mumpfuke yeye!”

⁶“Apfi pfideghe watano ng'awoghulighwa bae kwa sendi mbili? Lekeni kuduhu yumwe wao yosemwighwa ne Imulungu.

⁷Hata tsimvili tsili mne mwitwi mwenu tsipetighwa. Mleke kupfuka kwaapfila mwemwe mnogha ng'ani kubita iwapfideghe wengi!”

⁸“Nowalongela ghendo, imunu wowose iyonitoghola nene hambele he wanu, Imwana we Imunu naye katsomtoghola hambele he malaika we Imulungu.

⁹Lekeni imunu iyondema nene hambele he iwanu, naye Imwana we Imunu katsomlema hambele he malaika we Imulungu.”

¹⁰“Imunu wowose iyomlonga pfihile Imwana we Imunu katsolekelelighwa, lekeni imunu wowose iyomligha Ghumuhe ghwe Imulungu ng'atsolekelelighwa bae.

¹¹Hamtsoghalighwa mne tsing'anda tsa ukulombela, kwe iwatawala ne kwe iwakulu, mleke kupfuka chokulonga na chakwidika.

¹²Kwaapfila Ghumuhe ghwe Imulungu katsowalangulitsa chambamighwa kulonga.”

¹³Imunu yumwe kulawa mne iwanu iwemile hala kamlongela Yesu, “Mlangulitsi, mlongele ndughu yangu twigholele ipfinu pfatuleke aba wetu.”

¹⁴Yesu kamwidika, “Sale yangu, angu yuhi yanyikile nene niwe mlamutsi au niwe mghola pfinu pfenu?”

¹⁵Yesu kaghendelela kuwalongela wose, “Mwalangitse ne ubwa! Kwaapfila ughima we imunu ng'aulawa bae mna pfinu pfingi pfali napfo!”

¹⁶Kuya Yesu kawalongela imbuli ino; “Tsahana imunu yumwe tajiri tsa yane na mghunda ghunoghile ghumwelekele pfijo pfingi.

¹⁷Apfo kefikitsa mmoyo mwake, ‘Nahela hanu ha kwikila pfijo pfangu. Lelo nitendatse?’

¹⁸Kalonga, ‘Nitsotenda apfino; nitsotsimwagha kano tsangu na kutsenga tsingi ng'ulu ng'ani. Amo nitsakwika imitama yangu ne ipfinu pfangu pfingi.

¹⁹Kuya nitselongela mwenyegho; 'Ghwe ghumoyo ghwangu! Kwinapfo ipfinu pfingi kwa miyaka mingi. Bwihila ghwe; uje, unwe na udeng'elele!’

²⁰Lekeni Imulungu kamlongela imunu tajiri, ‘Kwambotsi ghweghwe! Chilo chichino ughima wako utsobamighwa! Pfinu pfawikile pfitsakuwa pfa nani?’ ”

²¹Yesu kalonga, “Apfi pfipfo pfapfitsakuwa kwe imunu wowose yeikile utajiri imwenyegho, lekeni ng'akwika bae utajiri kwe Imulungu.”
