1Achi ndi Chilongu cha Nyanyi cha Yesu Kilistu, Mwana wa Chapanga. Mayandiku vamu va dahili vavahela Mwana wa Chapanga.
2Chakandili kucha wayandikili Isaya yaveli mbuyi wa Chapanga: “Chapanga adetili, ‘Dandimlayishi makungu wangu akuwombeli, dayakutandili deha yaku.’
3Mundu yumu akukema kucheja, ‘Mugoli deha ya Bambu, muhololi deha yaki!’ ”
4Topi Yohani mbatisha afumbukili kucheja, alandulili kucha vandu vapomeli sambi na kuvabatisha, kavawombela vandu, “Ili Chapanga avapomeli sambi shawu.”
5Vandu vatangalili kufuma mlima wa Yudeya na mbwani ya Yelusalemu vayenda kumpikanisha Yohani. Vasipomela sambi shawu, mweni kavabatisha mulweni Yoludani.
6Yohani mbatisha afwalili yingwa yavagolilili kwa mingoma ya ngamiya na lufunga lwa ngwembi muchiwunu chaki na alili ngumbingumbi na njuki ya mudasi.
7Kavawombela vandu, “Akwisa mundu yaveli na liwovi kupita nenga. Nenga ngujakwa ha hata kugondama kuwopola ng'oyi sha mikobasi yaki.
8Nenga nguvabatisha kwa machi, ila mweni daavabatishi kwa Mfuki Mng'alili.”
9Majuva vala, Yesu afumili Nasaleti, kumlima wa Galilaya, kabatishiwa na Yohani mbatisha mulweni Yoludani.
10Tepu pabwitukili mumachi, kawona kumbindi kwa Chapanga kufuwuka na Mfuki Mng'alili kamsunukila kucha njiva.
11Na lishu lipikanika kufuma kumbindi, lideta “Yuwi mwana wangu yingutamili, mayiliwa na yuwi.”
12Tepu Mfuki Mng'alili kamugola ayendi kucheja,
13aku ayikalili kwa majuva milongu mchechi payeshiwa na Lijangavandu. Vang'ongolu va mudasi vaveli pala, lakini vamakungu vayisa vamkimbanikila.
14Yohani mbatisha pavamtatilili kala muchijaka, Yesu ayendili mlima wa Galilaya kuvalandulila vandu Chilongu cha Nyanyi cha Chapanga.
15Padeta, “Chipindi chifika, Wutwa wa kumbindi kwa Chapanga wuva pabehi! Mupomeli na muchijumili Chilongu cha Nyanyi!”
16Yesu patyangeyi muluwongu ya lihiva lya Galilaya, kavawona Simoni pamu na Andeleya mlongu mundu, pavafuva vasomba kwa lwafu.
17Yesu kavawombela, “Mungovikeli na nenga dandivagoli kuva vafuva vandu.”
18Tepu vasileka njafu shawu, vamkovekela.
19Paayendili pawulongolu padokwa, kavawona Yakobi na Yohani vana va Sebidayu, vayikala muwatu pavasambula njafu shawu.
20Bahala pala, Yesu kavakema. Veni vamleka tati wawu Sebidayu na vala vagolafichuku va mula muwatu, vamkovekela Yesu.
21Yesu na vanachuli vaki vayendili mumbwani ya Kapelinaumu. Palifikili Lijuva lya Kupumulila, Yesu kayingila Munyumba ya kudadavila kakanda kuwula.
22Vandu vala vapikanishili ng'ulilu yaki vayikang'anika nendu, nongwa kavawula ha kucha vawula vawu va Malawu va Chapanga vamupili Musa, ila yaveli na uwesu.
23Bahala pala mundu yavelili na mfuki mwafu kayingila Munyumba ya kudadavila, kawuta kwa lishu likomi,
24“Ukudayila kutugola liki, Yesu wa Nasaleti? Kwisa kutuyaghamisha? Ngumanya, Yuwi Mng'alili wa Chapanga!”
25Yesu kamulakalila chinyamkela, “Matu! Kopoki kwa mundu ayu!”
26Chinyamkela kamtaya chipwembu mundu yula, kawuta kwa lishu likomi, kakopoka kwa mundu yula.
27Vandu vosi vayikanganika nendu, vakandili kwidasha, “Achi chindu liki? Ayi ng'ulilu ya shonu na uwesu? Mundu ayu akuwesha kuvalakalila finyamkela na veni vakumpikana!”
28Filongu fya Yesu filopokesha kukwila kosi kumlima wa Galilaya.
29Tepu pavafumili Munyumba ya kudadavila, Yesu pamu na Yakobi na Yohani vanachuli vaki vayenda kaya ya Simoni na Andeleya.
30Nafyala wa Simoni avelili kawonja pawulili akutamika. Yesu pafikili, bahala pala vamuwombela chilongu cha mawu ayu.
31Topi Yesu kaselela kwa mawu yula mtami, kamkola liwoku kunu pamtandamusha. Utami umfuma mawu yula na mweni kakanda kuvakimbanikila.
32Lumihi palufikili na lijuva palidibili, vandu vamuyeghela Yesu vatami vosi na vandu yivavelili na finyamkela.
33Vandu vosi va mbwani vayikungula paluvagha,
34Yesu kavalowola vandu vatangalili yivavelili vakutamika matami va kila ndambu, kandi kafumisha finyamkela vatangalili. Kavagayila ng'odu finyamkela fwasi ya kuywanga, kwanongwa vamumanyili mweni ghani.
35Chilawu yaki linyavagogolu, Yesu kayimuka, kawuka kaya kayenda pangajila vandu. Aku Yesu kamdadavila Chapanga.
36Simoni na vayaki vayenda kumsaka.
37Pavamuwonili vamuwombela, “Kila mundu akakusakeyi yuwi.”
38Yesu kavayangula, “Tuyendi fijiji fimonga fiveli pabehi, ngavalandulili vandu wuwula. Topi nyisa niyilata chichuku achi.”
39Naha katyanga mumlima wosi wa Galilaya, palandula Munyumba sha kudadavila na kuwusha finyamkela.
40Mundu yavelili na ukalava amuyendilili Yesu kamtundamila na kamluva, kadeta, “Pawudayila, ukuwesha kung'ofuwa!”
41Yesu amuwonilili lusungu, kaholosha liwoku lyaki, kamkamula. Pambeli kamuwombela, “Ngudayila ngutangi ung'ali!”
42Bahala pala ukalava umfuma mundu yula, kang'ala.
43Pambeli Yesu kamuwombela ayendi, kamkayika,
44kamuwombela, “Pikanishi, ukotoo kumuwombela mundu yoyosi chilongu achi ila yendi ukayilangushi kwa mtambika. Pambeli uyeghi litambiku kwa Chapanga kucha alayilili mbuyi wa Chapanga Musa, vandu valoli utovileli kwa veni.”
45Lakini mundu yula kawuka kakanda kukwisha chilongu chila kosi, mbaka Yesu kalemwa kuyingila kumbwani kunu pawoneka. Ila kayikala panji, pangajila vandu. Lakini hata aku, vandu vamyendela kufuma mbembu shosi.
