1A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho, “Ashinkupagwa tajili jumo na nyapala jwakwe. Tajili jula ashinkulugulilwa, kuti nyapala jwabho anatapanya indu yabho.
2Tajili jula gwanshemile, nikummuya, ‘Indu yashi yako ugwe ingupilikanai? Utende malonda ga indu yangu yuposhele na yulile, pabha ukaapinjikwa kubha nyapala kabhili.’
3Nyapala jula gwaganishiye, ‘Bhakulungwa bhangu bhanaminga liengo lya unyapala, shindende bhuli? Nangali mashili ga lima, pita juga ngunakola oni.
4Elo, nishimanyi sha tenda nkupinga pushimingwe liengopo, bhandunji bhanjemelanje kunngwabhonji.’”
5“Bhai, gwabhashemilenje jumo jumo, bhakwetenje magambo bhowe kubhakulungwa bhakwe, gwammushiye jwa ntai jula, ‘Yukulongwa na bhakulungwa ilingwa?’
6Jwalakwe gwajangwile, ‘Nndobho 180 ya mauta ga sheituni.’ Nyapala jula gwannugulile, ‘Tola shipande sha ligambo lyako, shangu ujandishe nndobho makumi tisha.’
7Na gwammushiye akwete ligambo jwa bhili, ‘Ugwe ulongwa nndi?’ Jwalakwe gwajangwile, ‘Magunia 1,000 ga ngano.’ Nyapala jula gwannugulile, ‘Tola shipande sha ligambo lyako, shangu ujandishe magunia mia nane.’”
8Bhai tajili jula gwannumbilile nyapala jula, kwa penya kwakwe. Pabha bhandunji bha pa shilambolyo pano bhanapenyanga pubhatendanga indu na ashaajabhonji, kupunda bhandunji bha Upalume gwa a Nnungu.
9Na bhalabho a Yeshu gubhapundile kubheleketa, “Na nne ngunakummalanjilanga, mpanganje mbwiga na bhandunji kwa mali ga pa shilambolyo, nkupinga gamalaga, mposhelwanje kundamo ja pitipiti.
10Jojowe shakulupalilwe kwa indu yaishoko, shakulupalilwe nkali kwa indu yaikulungwa, na jojowe akaakulupalika kwa indu yaishoko, akaakulupalika nkali kwa indu yaikulungwa.
11Bhai ibhaga, mmanganya nkakulupalikanje kwa mali ga pa shilambolyo, gani shampanganje mali ga kweli?
12Na nkakulupalikanje kwa mali gaka mundu juna, gani shankamuyanje mali genunji mwaashayene?
13“Jwakwapi ntumishi akombola kwaatumishilanga bhakulungwanji bhabhili, pabha shanshime jumo nikumpinga junajo, eu shanng'ishimiye jumo na junajo nikunnyegaya. Nkakombolanga kwaatumishila a Nnungu pamo na mali.”
14Ashimapalishayo bhalinginji bhaapinganga mmbiya, bhakapilikananjeje genego, gubhaeshilenje nkwaanyegaya.
15A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Mmanganya nnakwitendanga nkwetenje aki pa bhandu, ikabheje a Nnungu bhajimanyi mitima jenunji, pabha shene shibhoneka sha mmbone kubhandu, a Nnungu pubhakushibhona sha bhiyabhiya.
16“Shalia na ashinkulondola, yaapali mpaka malanga ga a Yowana Bhabhatisha. Kutandubhila penepo, ngani ja mmbone ja Upalume gwa a Nnungu jinalunguywa, na kila mundu anakwiijinjiya kwa mashili.
17Ikabheje ikakola ukomu kunnungu na shilambolyo kupita, kupunda nkali shipande shishoko sha Shalia kushoywa.
18“Jojowe akunneka nkagwe nilomba juna, analabhalabha, na jojowe ankunnomba jwankongwe aleshilwe, analabhalabha.”
19Ashinkupagwa mundu jumo tajili, awalaga nngubho ya mmbiya yaigwinji ya langi ja shambalau na ya kitani ja takata, alipoka mobha gowe.
20Na pannango gwakwe atendaga tama nkulaga jumo, lina lyakwe Lashalo, akwete ilonda shiilu showe.
21Lashalo atendaga lokolila malepei gaagwaga pa mesha jika tajili jula, nkali mbwa yatendaga kwiya kunnambanga ilonda yakwe!
22Bhai nkulaga jula akuwaga, ashimalaika bha kunnungu gubhantolilenje, nikwenda kummika pubhaliji a Bhulaimu. Na tajili na jwalakwe gwawile, nishikwa.
23Tajili jula ali mmboteko ya punda kundamo ja bhawilenje, gwajinwile meyo, gwabhabhweni a Bhulaimu kwataliya bhali nagwe Lashalo,
24Bhai, gwabhashemile kwa utiya, “Ambuje a Bhulaimu, mmonele shiya, muntume Lashalojo kapela shikowe ashubhishe mmashi, andolishiye nnulimi lwangu, pabha ngunapotekwa kwa kaje pamoto pano.”
25Ikabheje a Bhulaimu gubhajangwile, “Kumbushila mwanangu, kuti ugwe ushinkupoka nndamo jako, na Lashaloju ashinkulaga. Ikabheje nnaino, jwalakwe anapoka na ugwe unapotekwa kwa kaje.
26Kupunda genego, pakatipakati jetu uwe na mmanganya, lishibhikwa liimbo likulungwa, nkupinga bhapinganga kwiya kunngwenunji kukoposhela akuno bhanakombolanje, na bhapinganga kwiya kwetu uwe kukoposhela kweneko bhanakombolanje.”
27Tajili jula gwashite, “Bhai ambuje a Bhulaimu, shonde bhai muntume Lashalo ajende kulikaja lya atati,
28pabha njikola ashapwanga nng'ano, akaalungushiyanje nkupinga bhanaikangane kumboteko kuno.”
29Ikabheje a Bhulaimu gubhajangwile, “Ashapwako bhakwetenje a Musha na ashinkulondola, bhaapilikalanje bhanganyabho.”
30Ikabheje na jwalakwe gwashite kabhili, “Nngabha nneyo ambuje a Bhulaimu, ikabhe mundu ayukaga nikwaajendelanga, shibhaipetanje.”
31Na bhalabho a Bhulaimu gubhajangwile, “Ibhaga bhakaapilikanilanje a Musha na ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu, bhakakundanga nkali mundu akayushile.”
