Luka 3:3-19

³U banai gba̱ a iyamba iꞌya iꞌa̱ri uɓongu u Aga̱ta̱ u Urudu n u yanyi kuɓari: ama a kpatala ubana a asu u Kashila̱ a a̱sa̱ka̱ tsicingi tsu le, aku a lyuɓugu le tsa̱ra̱ u wenike an a cimbusuka̱ le.

⁴Tyoku ɗa wa̱ri ukorongi a Tagara̱da u Ishaya matsumate a ukuna u Yahaya Kalyuɓugi: “Kala̱ga̱tsu ka uza roku ka sala̱sa a kakamba, ‘Lapulukai Asheku Kawauwi ure, i shamkpa u ɗa mai tsa̱ra̱ u wala.

⁵A ka shaɗangu ta̱ gba̱ ara̱ra̱, kpam a betelikpe gba̱ nsasa n aga̱la̱la̱. A shamkpa ire iꞌya i kotolusoi, aku a gbandala iꞌya iꞌa̱ri n aɗa̱ka̱.

⁶Kpam ama gba̱ a ka wene ta̱ iwauwi i Kashila̱.’ ”

⁷Yahaya tonukoi kakuma̱ ka ama ka ka tuwusa̱ tsa̱ra̱ u lyuɓugusu le vi, “Eɗa̱ aꞌeku! Ya ɓarana ɗa̱ i suma unamgbukatsuma̱ u Kashila̱ u ɗa wa tuwa̱?

⁸Yanyi ili iꞌya ya wenike ukpatala u ɗe. Kotsu i bidya a asuvu a atakasuvu a ɗe Ibirahi ɗa asheku a ɗe wa, nala wa ɓa̱nga̱ ɗa̱ wa. N tonuko ɗa̱, Kashila̱ ka fuɗa ta̱ ka ꞌya̱nga̱sa̱ka̱ Ibirahi mmuku a asuvu a atali a na yi.

⁹N gogo‑na naha a taɗangu ɗe kagovu a ami a nɗanga. Maɗanga ma baci dem ma kpa̱ɗa̱i u na̱ka̱ ilimaci i maci, a ka kapa ta̱ ma, a varangu a asuvu a akina.”

¹⁰Kakuma̱ ka ama ka wece yi, “Ndya wa̱ tsa yan gogo‑na?”

¹¹U wushuki, “Uza u ntogo n re, u peci n uza ɗa bawu wa̱ri n ma. Uza u ilikulya kpam dem u yain nala.”

¹²Awushi a utafa a roku a tuwa̱i tsa̱ra̱ a lyuɓugu le, a wece yi, “Kawenishiki, ndya tsa yan?”

¹³U tonuko le, “Kotsu i pasa̱ka a ili iꞌya a da i wushi wa.”

¹⁴Aku asoje a roku a wece yi, “A̱tsu tani, ndya tsa yan?” U tonuko le, “Kotsu i wusa uza ikebe wa. Ko i dana uza u nusa ta̱, kpam u nusa wa. I kawunku gai n katsupi ka ɗe.”

¹⁵Ama gba̱ aꞌa̱ri a ka vana ta̱ utuwa̱ u Kirisiti Kawauwi, aku aꞌa̱ri a uyawunsa a atakasuvu a le, ko Yahaya ɗa Kawauwi ki.

¹⁶Yahaya wushunku le gba̱, u danai, “Mpa gai n mini ma ma lyuɓugusu ɗa̱, shegai uza ɗa u la mu wa tuwa̱ ta̱. Uza ɗa mpa n ra̱tsa n surukpa isirikatsu i akpata i aꞌene a ne wa. Aya wa lyuɓugu ɗa̱ n Kulu Keri n akina.

¹⁷Kasasu ka uwelimkpe ka ne ka̱ ta̱ a kukere ku ne, wa wujuma̱ ta̱ asu u ulapa ilya vi, aku u cira̱ngu ilya yi u tsungu iꞌya a mapon. Shegai wa runukpa ta̱ kopo ki n akina† a ɗa bawu a ka cimba̱.”

¹⁸N icun i kuɓari ku na ki ushani, ka Yahaya yankai ama Kadyanshi ka Shinga ka Kashila̱.

¹⁹Shegai Yahaya ɓaranai Hiridu Antiba magono a kaci ka Hiridiya, uka u vangu u ne u ɗa u zuwai, n ukuna u cingi u roku u ɗa u yain.
