1 Litsuwa limwe iwasola kodi na wane nzambi wamghendela Yesu kumhulikitsa.
2 Lekeni Mafarisayo na iwolangulitsa Ghamalaghitso wandusa kwilongela, “Imunu yuno kawabokelagha iwanu wane nzambi na kuja nawo!”
3 Kuya Yesu kawalongela imbuli ino.
4 “Imunu wachi mna mwemwe yane iwang'olo miya imwe na ng'olo wake yumwe ang'agha, apfi ng'atsowaleka bae wala tisini na tisa akula koyodimila na kughenda kumbama yula yaghile mbaka amwone?
5 Na hayomwona katsodeng'elela na kumwika mmahegha mwake,
6 na kumghala ukaye. Kuya katsowakema sale tsake ne iwanu iwali habehi naye na kulonga, ‘Mdeng'e na nene, kwaapfila nimwona ing'olo wangu yaghile.’
7 Pfipfila nowalongela kutsakuwa na ndeng'elo ng'ulu kulanga kwe imunu yumwe yane nzambi kutsileka nzambi tsake kubita iwanu wala tisini na tisa iwebona wanogha aku ng'awobama bae kutsileka nzambi tsawo.”
8 “Au ka ipinga kana sendi kumi, na sendi imwe yagha. Apfi ng'atsotuwa bae ichitasa, na kusegha ing'anda yake na kuibama chila hanu mbaka ayone?
9 Na hayatsoyona sendi ila, katsowakema sale tsake ne iwanu iwali habehi naye na kuwalongela, ‘Mdeng'e na nene kwaapfila niyona sendi yangu yaghile!’
10 Pfipfila nowalongela, malaika we Imulungu watsodeng'elela kwe imunu yumwe yane nzambi kutsileka nzambi tsake.”
11 Yesu kaghendelela kuwalongela, “Tsakukala ne imunu yumwe yawile ne iwana weli.
12 Imwana mdodo kamlongela aba wake, ‘Aba, ungolele pfinu pfutsongaya.’ Apfo aba kawagholela ipfinu pfake.
13 Ghamatsuwa chidogho hambele, imwana mdodo kautsa ipfinu pfake. Kuya koka ukaye yawo, kaghenda isi ya kutali, ako katsipwilisa sendi tsake kwa pfinu pfihile.
14 Sendi tsake hatsimalile, inzala ng'ulu ilawila mna isi ila yose, naye kakala kahela ichinu.
15 Apfo kaghenda kulomba isang'ano kwe imunu we isi ila, imunu yula kamlaghitsa aghende mne mghunda ghwake akadime wangubi.
16 Tsakasulukila kuja imibangu yawajile iwangubi, lekeni kuduhu imunu yamwing'ile ichijo.
17 Tsimbutsi tsake hatsimuyile, keghutsa imwenyegho, ‘Aba wangu kana iwanu wengi we isang'ano iwakuja na kuleka ichijo, na nene nahano noghanzika kwe inzala!
18 Nitsakwinuka na kuya kwa aba wangu na kumlongela, Aba, nimtendela Imulungu nzambi, na pfipfila nikutendela ghweghwe nzambi.’
19 Sibamighwa bae kukemighwa imwanagho, unende niwe ka yumwe we iwanu wako we isang'ano.”
20 Apfo kenuka koya kwa aba wake. “Lekeni hang'ali kakutali, aba wake kamwona kamwonela libatsi; kamtsumila imwanaghe, kamkumbatila, na kamnonela.
21 “Imwana kamlongela aba wake, ‘Aba wangu, nimtendela nzambi Imulungu na ghweghwe pfipfila. Sibamighwa bae kukemighwa mwanagho.’
22 Lekeni aba wake kawakema iwatumwa wake kawalongela, ‘Himahima! Mghalileni gholole linoghile mumpfatse. Na ipete mna ichidole chake ne imikwabatsa mmaghulu mwake.
23 Mumghale imwana we ing'ombe yanenehe. Leka tutende ichihungo na tudeng'elele.
