Luka 18:7-23

⁷Pfii lelo Imulungu ng'atsowalamulila bae iwanu wala iyawasaghule, iwomlilila chilo na misi? Apfi katsokawa kuwapfila?

⁸Nowalongela katsowapfila hima! Hata apfo Imwana we Imunu hatsakutsa, apfi katsopfika iwanu wotoghola mne iisi?”

⁹Kuya Yesu kawalongela imbuli ino iwanu wala iweghoda na kuwabetsa wangi.

¹⁰“Iwanu weli waghenda kune ing'anda ye Imulungu kulomba. Yumwe Mfarisayo na yungi imunu iyosola kodi.

¹¹Ayo Mfarisayo kema, kalomba mne ghumoyo ghwake, ‘Mighede, Ghwe Imulungu, kwaapfila nene si ka iwanu wangi bae, iwoboka, iwotenda ghehile, watsinzi, wala si ka ayu msola kodi.

¹²Nene noleka ukuja ghamatsuwa meli mne ghamatsuwa saba, nolapfa tsaka ye ipfinu pfose pfanipata!’

¹³“Lekeni ayula msola kodi kema kutali, wala ng'alolile bae kulanga. Lekeni ketowa mmambagha mwake kwa usungu, kalonga, ‘Ghwe Imulungu, umbonele libatsi, nene mtenda ghehile.’ ”

¹⁴Nowalongela, “Ayu msola kodi koka ukaye yake akuno katogholighwa ne Imulungu kubita ayula yungi. Kwaapfila imunu wowose yetenda imwenyegho mkulu katsotendighwa mdodo, na imunu wowose yetenda imwenyegho mdodo katsotendighwa mkulu.”

¹⁵Iwanu tsawamghalila Yesu iwana wadodo awekile ghamoko. Iwanang'ina wake hawonile apfi, wawakembela.

¹⁶Lekeni Yesu kawakema iwana wamghendele, kalonga, “Muwaleke iwana wadodo wanitsile, mleke kuwaghoma. Kwaapfila undewa we Imulungu wa iwanu ka wano.

¹⁷Nowalongela ghendo, imunu wowose yang'aubokela undewa we Imulungu ka imwana mdodo, ng'atsakwingila bae mne undewa awo.”

¹⁸Na mkulu yumwe wa Chiyahudi kamghutsa Yesu, “Mlangulitsi yunoghile, nitende choni ili nidahe kupata ughima wa matsuwa ghose?”

¹⁹Yesu kamghutsa, “Mbona kwonikema ninogha? Kuduhu yanoghile lekeni Imulungu aliyeka.

²⁰Kwoghamanya ghamalaghitso. ‘Uleke utsinzi, uleke kukoma, uleke kulonga ughutsu, wategheletse aba wako na mai wako.’ ”

²¹Kamwidika, “Agho ghose nighakinda kulawa udodo wangu.”

²²Yesu haulike apfo kamlongela, “Kuhungukighwa na ichinu chimwe. Utsa pfose pfawinapfo na sendi uwagholele wahingwa, naghwe kutsakuwa na utajiri kulanga. Kuya utse uniwinze.”

²³Lekeni imunu ayo haulike apfi, kwona usungu ng'ani kwaapfila tsakakala tajiri ng'ani.
