9Amana apattha oniwaakhuwela maswaahipu zawe na anamwaattamanani awe awooze yoori: ‘Nlaweni nitthape, maana kapattha nzurukhu aka opule waakaashikhiyeeyo.’
10Miiyo kiniwuuzani yoori eniiyavo furaha khuluyeene vakatthi wa malayikha a Nnyizinku mwaasa wa natwampi mmote othupwiya.”
11Yinsa khurutela theenya yoori: “Aarivo mwinyi mmote aariina aanaawe awiri.
12Otu nttiitthi aya khumuuza papaawe yoori: ‘Paapa, mwikinkhe lifunku la erathi yaka.’ Papaawe khuwaawanyela maali epile aanaawe.
13Oviriyeevo wakathi vattitthiiru, mwaana otule nttiitthi khuthuula maali zawe epile aawanyeliweezo khulawa tuniya kiina ya woolepawo. Ottuukho khuharipu maali zawe epile khwa mwentto woololo.
14N'ooharipu zooshi khupuwa jala ya waatta mmuti mwaya mphule, ye khusala ahankayikha.
15Khulankha mpakha wa mwinyi mmote wa tuniya ethiitile khunvekela khaazi, ye khumwinkha oshukisa kuluwe zawe ntthuttu.
16Ye aari ohithajiya oja vitthu epile zaari ojiwaazo pi kuluwe na khaavo aari omwinkhaaye etthu-yoojiwa.
17Khujipayini khuri: ‘Anakhaazi a paapa ana etthu-yoojiwa yoowaafiyela, miiyo kiri okhuno entta okikhola jala.
18Kintta olankha kilawe wa paapa khamuuze yoori: Paapa, kakosa mmakhono wa Nnyizinku na mmakhono mwenu.
19Akinsuhi theenya wiitthiwa yoori ki mwanenu, mwikipokherele nkhama mmote wa anakhaazi enu.’
20Khulankha khusala alawa mpakha wa papaawe. Nalelo ari peetiwene papaawe khumoona, khwiiyana huruma khuluyeene khusala antthirela khulawa khumpatikha na khumpejari.
21Attaaphale mwaana otule khumuuza papaawe yoori: ‘Paapa, kakosa mmakhono wa Nnyizinku na mmakhono mwenu. Akinsuhi wiitthiwa yoori ki mwanenu.’
22Ila papaawe khuwooza akarumeya awe yoori: ‘Mwaakuve, mwitiise kuwo zooziti oshapweya mwinwalise. Na peetthe mwinwalise nzaala mwawe na shapattho mmoolu mwawe.
23Mwilawe onzizi mwanthuule mwaana wa mompe otule eesheliyeeyo oneneva mwite mwishije, nirette njampo la furaha.
24Mwaasa yoori mwanaka otu aafwiiye apha ori haayi; aashikhiye apha apattikhana.’ Khwaaziwa njampo.
25Epo zaari orettikhana mwaana otule nwulu ari omashapa. Khuta mpakha kharipu na vaje, khusala asiila koma zeettaka ovuma na atthu eettaka wiina.
26Aphano ye khunkhuwela karumeya mmote wa vaje attaaphale khumuuzela niini yaari orettikhanaaye.
27Ye khumuuza yoori: ‘Ttwiiyo ti ye arutiyeeyo, papaawo khunshijela mwaana wa mompe otule eesheliyeeyo oneneva, mwaasa wompokherela ari haayi.’
28Mwaana otule nwulu khwiiphiiriwa khuhisala atakha oviramo. Attaaphale papaawe khusaruwa khusala ankhanyarela.
29Ila ye khumuuza papaawe yoori: ‘Moone! Nyaakha za waatta kuurumeyelakani, wala akinakhijilele hatha nttakhuzi lenu limote. Ila khamwinakinkhe hatha puuzi moote yoori kirette njampo na ashirikha aka.
30Arutiyeevo mwanenu oto aharipwiyeeyo vitthu zenu na amalempe, mwanshijela mwaana wa mompe otule wooneneva aya.’
31Aphano papaawe khumuuza yoori: ‘Mwanaka! Wakhula siikhu oniiya vamote na-miyo, wakhula etile kiriina ti yaawo.
32Ila yaari ohithajiya oretta njampo la furaha, mwaasa yoori ttwiiyo aafwiiye apha ori haayi, aashikhiye apha apattikhana.’”
