⁸Zakayo akajhema akan'jobhela Bwana, Nusu gha mali jha nene nikabhapela maskini, na jhikajhiajhi ninyakili munu jhejhioha khenu, ni betakunkerebhusila mara nne.'

¹²Hivyo akabhajobhela, 'Ofisa mmonga alotili nchi jha patali ili apokelayi ufalme ni kisha akerebhukajhi.

¹³Abhakutili bhatumishi bhwa muene kumi, akabhapela mafungu kumi, akabhajobhela, mubhombelayi biashara mpaka pa nibeta kukerebhuka.'

¹⁴Lakini bhananchi bha muene bhan'dadili na hivyo bhakalaghisya bhajumbe bhalotayi kun'kesya ni kujobha, Twilondalepi munu ojho atutawalayi.'

¹⁵Ikajha bho akerebhwiki kunyumba baada jha kujha mfalme, akaamuru bhala bhatumishi bha abhalakili hela bhakutibhwayi kwa muene, abhwesiajhi kumanya faida jheleku bhajhikabhili kwa kubhomba biashara.

¹⁶Wa kuanza akahida, akajobha, `Bwana, fungu lya jhobhi libhombili mafungu kumi zaidi.'

¹⁷Ofisa ojhu akan'jobhela, kinofu mtumishi rinofu. Kwandabha wajhele ghwe mwaminifu mu khenu kidebe, wibeta kujha ni madaraka juu jha miji kumi.'

¹⁸Wa pili akahida, akajobha, 'Bwana, fungu lya jhobhi libhombili mafungu mahanu.'

¹⁹Afisa ojhu akan'jobhela, 'Tolayi mamlaka juu jha miji mihanu.'

²⁰Ni jhongi akahida, akajobha, `Bwana ejhe apa hela jha jhobhi najhitunzili kinofu mu kitambala,

²¹Kwandabha natikili bhebhe ghwe n'kali. ghwibhosya khela kya ubhekilepi ni kuvuna khela kya ubelikupanda.'

²²Afisa ojhu akan'jobhela, 'Kwa malobhi ghaku ghwe muene, nibeta kuhukumu, ebhe mtumishi n'nofu lepi. Ghwamanyili kujonene ne munu nenkali nitola kya nikibhekilepi ni kuvuna ambakyo napandilepi.

²³Basi, mbona ghwabhekilepi hela jha nene benki, ili nikakerebhukayi niitolayi pamonga ni faida?

²⁴Ofisa akabhajobhela bhanu bhabhajhemili apu, 'Munyakayi lifungu e'lu ni kumpela jhola mwenye mafungu kumi.'

²⁵Bhakan'jobhela, `Bwana, muene ajhe ni mafungu kumi.'

²⁶'Nikabhajobhela, kila munu jhaa jhe naku ibeta kupelibhwa nesu, lakini jhaadulili, hata khela kya ajhenaku kitolibhwa.

²⁷Lakini abha maadui bha nene, ambabho bhilonda lepi nijhelayi mfalme ghwa bhene, mubhaletayi apa ni kubhakoma mbele jha muenga.”

²⁸Baada jha kujobha aghu, akajhendelela palongolo akakwela kulota Yerusalemu.

²⁹Bho akaribili Bethfage ni Bethania, karibu ni kidonda kya Mizeituni, akabhalaghisya bhanafunzi bha muene bhabhele,

³⁰Akajobha: `Mulotayi mu kijiji kya jirani. Mkajhingilayi, mwibeta kun'kolela mwana -punda apandisibhulepi akona. Mumbopolayi, mundetayi kwa nene.

³¹Kama munu abhakotili kwandajha kiki mwibhopola? 'Mujobhayi, “Bwana akandonda.”

³²Bhala bhabhatumibhu bhakalota bhakambona mwana-punda kama Yesu kyaabhajobhili.
