⁶Avo Yesu kachola na hewo, viwavikile behi na ing'anda, ija imkulu wa iwaasikali mia wa Loma kawalagiza wambwiga zake wamulongele Yesu vino, “Mndewa, sambiugaye, nie silumbile gweye wize wingile mng'anda yangu,

⁷kileka nivigesile kamba silumbile kwiza hamwako nene mwenyego, ila longa mbuli! Na nyakadala wangu kohona.

⁸Nie vivija na munhu nikigwe hasi ya udaho wa wakulu zangu wa uchana yangu, na nna asikali hasi yangu. Nihamulongela ino, ‘Genda!’ kochola, nihamulongela ija, ‘Izo!’ kokwiza na nihamulongela nyakadala wangu, ‘Tenda vino!’ kotenda.”

⁹Yesu viyahulike gano, kamkanganya munhu ija, kahinduka kuchugu na kudilongela dale da wanhu dikalile dimsondolela, “Nowalongela, sinakona nhamanila ng'hulu kamba ino, hata mwa wanhu wa Islaeli!”

¹⁰Waja watumigwe wabwela kung'anda ya ija imkulu, wam'vika nyakadala wake kahona.

¹¹Mkipigiti kiguhi Yesu kachola hakiwambo kikemigwa Naini, kailongoza na wanahina zake na dale kulu da wanhu.

¹²Viwavikile halwivi lwa ikiwambo, wanhu wakalile wapapile munhu yadanganhike wakala wolawa hanze ya ikiwambo. Mmhale yakalile yaleligwe yeiyeka na mtwanzi imwe yakalile kizuka, na dale kulu da wanhu kulawa mkiwambo dikala hamoja na ija imtwanzi.

¹³Mndewa Yesu viyamuwene, kamonela bazi, kamulongela, “Sambiulile.”

¹⁴Abaho, kachola haulongozi na kulukwasa ulusazi, avo wanhu waupapile wema. Yesu kalonga, “Mmhale, nokulongela, lamuka!”

¹⁵Ija immhale yadanganhike kenuka, kakala ukala, kasonga kulonga. Yesu kamgwelela mamaake.

¹⁶Wanhu wose wona bwembwe wamuyenzi Mulungu, walonga, “Muhokozi mkulu koneka hamwetu, Mulungu keza kuwakombola wanhu zake.”

¹⁷Mbuli zino za Yesu zenela muisi yose ya Yudea na isi za mmambwegambwega.

¹⁸Wanahina wa Yohana viwamulongele mbuli zino zose, kawakema wabili mmwanza wao,

¹⁹na kuwalagiza wachole ha Mndewa wakamuuze vino, “Yohana kalonga, gweye iyo mkombola yondayeze? Ama tumtamanile iyagwe?”
