Luka 7:5-29

⁵Kwa kitumbu ywembe aatikuupenda muno nni'ma witu na ngaywatusengile yi'lu' nyumba ya kunnu'ba Nnu'ngu'.”

⁶Bai, kabayenda, baalongwaniye na Yesu. Pabaabile kabaegelya panyumba ya yu'lu' mpi'ndo ywa yesi, yu'lu' mpi'ndo ngatuma mambwigalye, bakammakie Yesu, “Bwana, kanewisuluye muno, kwa mwanjaa nenga ili'nganili wenga yingya munyumba yangu'.

⁷Kwa nyo, nga kitumbu sanikotwike isa kwaubile, naibweni nili'nganili. Ila ulongele bai likowe, na mpangakasi wangu' alu'a lama.

⁸Nanenga nibi pai' ya utawala nyonyonyo, na nibile na banayesi pai' yangu'. Nimmakia yumo, ‘Yenda,’ ywembe endayenda, nimmakia ywi'ngi' ‘Isa!’ nembe endaisa, na mpangakasi wangu' ‘Panga kikowe si'!’ nembe endapanga.”

⁹Yesu payu'wine go, aatisangala, aakigalambuki si'lu' kipi'nga sa bandu sakimmi'ngi'yage, ngabaya, “Nammonali mundu mwene imani ngu'lu' kati yi' ata ku'lu' Isilaili!”

¹⁰Balu' bandu babaatumilwe kwa Yesu pabaabukiye kasake yu'lu' mpi'ndo, bankoli yu'lu' mpangakasi ayu'yu'kilwe.

¹¹Bu'kapo, Yesu ngayenda kukilambo sa Naini, aalongwaniye na banamasi' bake, na lipi'nga lya bandu babammi'ngi'yage.

¹²Bai, paegeli pa niango wo yingya pakilambo so, baapitike bandu babapu'twi ntwi wa nnalu'me yumo ywabelekwi kisake kwa nnwawa ywawi'like na nsengowe. Bandu baingi ba kilambo so, baabile pamope na mau' ywo.

¹³Bwana Yesu paamweni mau' ywo, aammi'kikiya, ngammakia, “Kaneuli'le.”

¹⁴Bu'kapo, ngayenda kugakunywa galu' masela na balu' babaapu'twile baatiyi'ma, ngabaya, “Wamunsembe, Nikuamulisa uyumuke!”

¹⁵Yu'lu' nnalu'me ywawile ngatama utama, no tumbwa longela. Yesu ngankamukiya kwa mau' bake.

¹⁶Bandu boti, baatiyogopa na kunnumba Nnu'ngu' kababaya, “Nnondoli nku'lu' ywa Nnu'ngu' apitile mulukolo lwitu. Nnu'ngu' aisi kwakombwa bandu bake.”

¹⁷Makowe gake go, gaatiyu'wanika kwoti akwo Yudea na ilambo ya papipi.

¹⁸Banamasi' ba Yoani baayi'i kummakia Yoani makowe ago goti. Nembe Yoani payomwi kwakema banamasi' bake abi'li' bu'ka kwa boti,

¹⁹aatumike kwa Bwana, bakannaluye, “Wenga nga yu'lu' ywaisa, au tunni'nde ywi'ngi'?”

²⁰Balu' banamasi' pabaaikite kwa Yesu, baatikummakia, “Yoani Ywabatisage atutumike kasako tukulaluye, ‘Wenga wa yu'lu' ywaisa, au tunni'nde ywi'ngi'?’”

²¹Palu' pabannaluyage Yesu aai mulyengo lya kwatepwa bandu baingi balu' babalumyage kwa matamwe, na babaayingililwe na moka na kwapanga atu'lu'ka minyo baingi balole.

²²Bai Yesu ngayangwa, “Muyende mukammakie Yoani galu' gamugabweni kwa minyo ginu na kugayu'wa. Atu'lu'ka minyo bendalola, itewe bendayenda, bene matana bendapeleteyelwa, kingemakutu bendayu'wa, mitwi yendayu'ka, na aki'ba baalilwa Abali Inannoga.

²³Nantali mundu yu'lu' ywakotwike ba na kyukala na nenga.”

²⁴Apo pababu'i balu' baatumike Yoani, Yesu aatumbwi kulibakia lipi'nga lya bandu abali ya Yoani, “Mwayi'i linga namani ku'lu' kulupu'ngu'ti'? Buli, mupalage kugabona mambu'ngi'li'i kagapu'ngi'la na nsunga?

²⁵Mana nnyoli, mwayi'i linga namani? Mwayi'i kunnola mundu ywaweti magu'bo gene bei? Babawala magu'bo gene bei no tama kwa maisa ga kitayili batama mu mayumba ga akulungwa!

²⁶Bai, munibakie, mwayi'i linga namani, mwayi'i kunnola nnondoli ywa Nnu'ngu'? Elo, kai' kumpi'ta nnondoli ywa Nnu'ngu'.

²⁷Ayu' Yoani ngaywabayilwa mu Maandiko Mapeleteu, ‘Lola, nenga nintuma mpangakasi wangu' akulongoli, aywo alu'a kupetulya ndi'la yako.’”

²⁸Yesu aayomwi kwo baya, “Nimmakia, kati ya bandu boti babatami panni'ma, ntu'pu' ywabile nku'lu' muno kumpi'ta Yoani Ywabatisage. Ata nyo, yu'lu' ywabile nsene muno mu Ukulungwa wa Nnu'ngu' nga nku'lu' kulikoni ywembe.”

²⁹Bandu boti pamope na alonga koli pabagayu'wine go, baaulumbite unnogau wa Nnu'ngu'. Abo nga balu' babaupoki ubatiso wa Yoani.
