19 Wamulongela, “Wayagwe wolonga gweye iyo Yohana M'batiza, wayagwe wolonga gweye iyo Eliya, na wayagwe wolonga gweye iyo imwe wa wahokozi wa umwaka kuzuka kabili.”
20 Yesu kawauza, “Na mweye, molonga nie iyo yalihi?” Petulo kalonga, “Gweye iyo Kilisto Mkombola ulawile ha Mulungu.”
21 Abaho, Yesu kawazuma na kuwagomesa ng'hani sambiwamulongele munhu yoyose mbuli ino.
22 Vivija kawalongela, “Nie, Mwana wa Munhu, nolondigwa nigaye ng'hani, na nilemigwe na wakulu na wakulu wa wakulu wa nhambiko na wafundiza Malagizo ga Musa. Nokomigwa, ila mdizua da ikadatu nozuka, nowa mgima kabili.”
23 Avo kawalongela wanhu wose, “Kamba munhu yahalonda kuwa mwanahina wangu, yaibele mwenyego, yaidikwe msalaba wake mazua gose, yanikoleleze.
24 Munhu yoyose yahalonda kuukombola ugima wake, kowagiza, na munhu yoyose yowagiza ugima wake sama yangu nie, koukombola.
25 Wanhu kamba wahapata vinhu vose va muisi na hewo wenyego wopotela ama wokwangama, kuna unozi waki? Nokona haduhu!
26 Kwavija munhu yoyose yahanyonela kinyala nie na mafundo gangu, nie, Mwana wa Munhu, nomonela kinyala heyo vondanize muyenzi yangu na muyenzi ya Tata na muyenzi ya wasenga wa Mulungu wang'alile wa kuulanga.
27 Nowalongeleni ikweli, hana wanhu wayagwe hano hawadanganhika mbaka wawone Undewa wa Mulungu.”
28 Mazua manane songela hayalongile mbuli zija, Yesu kawasola Petulo, na Yohana na Yakobo wachola kukigongo kutambika.
29 Yesu viyakalile yotambika, kihanga chake kigaluka, na vivalo vake vigaluka vizelu nang'hanang'ha.
30 Bahaja wanhu wabili wakala wolongelela na heyo. Wakala Musa na Eliya.
31 Wakalile woneke muyenzi ya kuulanga na walongelela na Yesu avija ndagizi za Mulungu vondazivikile hima na vija vondayadanganhikile Yelusalemu.
32 Petulo na wayage wakala wawasile, ila viwalamuke, wayona yenzi ya Yesu na wanhu wabili wakalile wemile na heyo.
33 Waja iwanhu wabili viwakalile wosonga kuchola, Petulo kamulongela Yesu, “Mndewa, vinoga tweye tukale hano, tuzenge vizewe vidatu, kimwe chako, kimwe cha Musa, na kimwe cha Eliya.” Kalonga avo kuno hakitangile choyolonga.
34 Petulo viyakalile hanamambukiza kulonga, wingu dilawilila diwagubika, wanahina zake wadumba ng'hani avija diwingu vidiwagubike.
35 Dihulikwa dizwi kulawa mdiwingu, dilonga, “Ino iyo Mwanangu inimsagule, mtegelezeni heyo!”
36 Dizwi dija vudipozike, kasigala Yesu yeiyeka. Wanahina zake wanyamala tulu mmbuli zose zino na hawamulongele munhu yoyose mmazua gaja gose mbuli ziwonile.
37 Imitondo iyagwe Yesu na waja wanahina zake wadatu wahumuluka hakigongo, na dale da wanhu dimwizila Yesu.
38 Munhu imwe kulawa muja mdidale da wanhu kenula dizwi yolonga, “Mkulufunzi, chonde, chonde, mulole mmhale wangu, iyo mwanangu yeiyeka!
39 Kinyamkela kam'vagalaga mkumsinhukiza na kumtenda yatoe nyangi chaka, komgela kisango baho holovu domulawa mmulomo, kogendelela kumulumiza, hamulekesa hima.
40 Niwayalalila wanahina zako wamuwinge ikinyamkela, ila hawadahile.”
41 Yesu kawalongela, “Mweye wanhu mpotele, mulibule nhamanila, nokala na mweye mbaka zua jaki? Nowapapa mbaka kwahi?” Abaho, kamulongela ija imunhu, “Mgale hano mwanago.”
42 Ija mmhale vayakalile yomkwenhukila Yesu, kinyamkela kam'bwanha hasi na kumgela kisango. Yesu kamkomhokela ija kinyamkela, kamuhonya ija immhale, kam'bweza ha tataake.
43 Wanhu wose wakanganya mhiko ng'hulu za Mulungu. Wanhu vawakalile wogendelela kukanganya mbuli zose zayatendile Yesu, kawalongela wanahina zake,
44 “Tegelezeni goya kinhu kinilonda kuwalongela! Nie, Mwana wa Munhu, nochola kugeligwa mmakono ga wanhu.”
45 Ila wanahina zake hawaitangile nhegulo ya mbuli ija. Mbuli ija ikala ifisigwe kumwao, avo hawaitangile nhegulo yake, na wadumba kumuuza.
46 Wanahina wa Yesu wasonga kuibamilila wolonga yalihi yondayawe mkulu kubanza wose.
