1Pomwe Jezu akhacoka kuNyumba ya Mulungu, m'bodzi wa akupfundzira wace adamuwuza kuti, “Mpfundzisi, onani minyalayi na nyumbazi.”
2Jezu adamuwuza kuti, “Kodi muli kuziwona nyumba zikulu-zikuluzi? Pan'dzasala lini mwala padzaulu pamwala undzace: yentse in'dzagumulidwa.”
3Jezu adakhala pantsi paphiri la Olivera kutsogolo kwa Nyumba ya Mulungu. Ndipo Pedru, Tiyagu, Juwau na Andereya adamubvundza paokha kuti,
4“Tiwuzeni bzimwebzi bzin'dzacitika lini? Tin'dzawona cizindikiro canyi kuti bziri pafupi kucitika?”
5Pamwepo Jezu adawawuza kuti, “Cenjerani kuti wina ali-yentse aleke kukupumpsani.
6Thangwe azinji an'dzabwera mudzina langu acimbadzalewa kuti, ‘Krixtu ndine.’ Ndipo wan'dzasoceresa wanthu azinji.
7Mukadzabva nkhondo ayai ntabva-tabva wa nkhondo, lekani thupo. Bzimwebzi bzin'funika kuti bzidzacitike, tsono cimaliziro cikanati kufika.
8Madzindza yakusiyana-siyana yan'dzasandukirana. Madziko yakusiyana-siyana yan'dzamenyana nkhondo. Mbuto zakusiyana-siyana zin'dzatekenyeka, ndipo kun'dzakhala njala. Tsono bzimwebzi bzidzakhala ninga kubvulumukidwa kwa mai wa pathupi.
9“Cenjerani! Wanthu an'dzakuperekani kumbuto za kutongera mirandu, ndipo an'dzakuchangani mnyumba zamapemphero. Mun'dzawonekera kwa atongi na kwa azimambo thangwe ra Ine kuti mukandicitire umboni.
10Ndipo bzakufunika kuti mafala yabwino ya yambe kulewedwa kwa wanthu wa madzindza yentse.
11Ndipo angadzakuphatani acikuperekani pamphala, lekani kudzakhala na thupo kuti, ‘Kodi tikalewe ciyani?’ Mun'kalewa bzomwe Mulungu an'kakuwuzani panthawe yomweyo. Thangwe ndimwe lini mun'dzalewa-lewa. Mzimu Wakucena ndiwo un'dzalewa-lewa.
12M'bale an'dzapereka m'bale wace kuti aphedwe. Baba, mwana wace. Wana an'dzasandukira azibaba wawo mpaka kuwaphesa.
13Mun'dzawengedwa na wanthu wentse thangwe ra dzina langu. Ndipo omwe an'dzalimbika mpaka pakumalizira, ndiye an'dzapulumuka.”
14“Mukawona cakudzonga cidaima pambuto yomwe cin'funika lini kuti cikhale. (Wakulewenga, abvesese!) Pamwepo omwe wali muYudeya adzathawire kumapiri.
15Omwe ali pacigota, abuluke athawiretu. Aleke kupita mnyumba kuti akatenge cinthu.
16Omwe ali kumunda, aleke kubwerera kunyumba kuti akatenge bzakubvala.
17Tsoka kwa akazi omwe an'dzagumanizidwa ana pathupi na wakumamisa wana ntsiku zimwezo.
18Mupembe kuti bzimwebzi dzileke kudzakuwonekerani pa nyengo ya mphepo
19thangwe pantsiku zimwezo yan'dzawoneka mabvuto yomwe yakanati kuwoneka kucokera paciyambi ca dziko lapantsi mpaka lero, ndipo yan'dzawoneka lini pomwe.
20Na tenepo Mbuya angadasaya kuzipunguza ntsikuzo, palibe omwe angadapulumuka. Tsono Mulungu adazipunguza thangwe ra wanthu omwe iye adasankhula.
21“Na tenepo, winango angadzakuwuzani kuti, ‘Ali pano Krixtu,’ ayai ‘Uyo ali apo.’ Lekani kudzam'bvera
22thangwe kun'dzawoneka wanthu wakunama an'dzalewa kuti, ‘Ndine Krixtu’ pinango kuti, ‘Ndine mpolofiti.’ Wanthuwo acimbadzacita mabasa yamphambvu ndipombo bzinthu bzakudabwisa kuti bzingadzakwanisika adzasocerese napo wakusankhulidwa na Mulungu.
23Ndipo imwe khalani na tceru. Ine ndakuwuzani bzentsenebzi bzikhanati kuti bzicitike.”
24“Ntsiku zimwezo, mabvutoyo yangadzamala, dzuwa lin'dzathima, mwezi un'dzaleka kugaka.
25Nyenyezi zin'dzagwa kucokera kudzaulu, ndipo mphambvu za kudzaulu zin'dzatekenyeka.
26Pamwepo an'dzawona Mwana-wa-Muntu ali kubwera mmitambo na mphambvu zikulu na mbiri.
27Iye an'dzatuma anjo zace kuti akagumanize wakusankhulidwa wace kucokera kudziko lentse: kudzaulo, kunyantsi, kumabva dzuwa, na madokero”
28“Pfundzirani kuna mkuyu. Mukawona kuti mithawi yace yayamba kuswipirira ndipo masamba yali kufundira, mumbadziwe kuti mayindza yafendera.
29Na tenepo mungadzawona bziri kucitika, mudzadziwe kuti Mwana-wa-Munthu ali pafupi, ali pamsuwo caipo.
30Cadidi ndiri kulewa kuti bzentsenebzi bzin'dzawoneka mbadwe uno ukanati kufa.
31Kudzulu na dziko lapantsi bzin'dzamala, tsono mafala yangu yan'dzamala lini cipo.”
32“Ndipo ntsiku na nthawe yace, palibe omwe aniidziwa. Anjo za kudzaulu zin'dziwambo lini. Napo Mwana an'dziwambo lini. Aniidziwa ni Baba ekha basi.
33Cenjerani! Khalani wakupenya thangwe mun'dziwa lini nthawe in'dzakwana lini.
34Bzin'dzakhala ninga mwenekaciro-nyumba omwe adacoka aciyenda ulendo. Ambasiya bzinthu mmanja mwa anyabasa wace, ali-yentse na basa lace, ndipo ambawuza mulindiri kuti akhale wakupenya.
35Khalani wakupenya thangwe mun'dziwa lini nthawe yomwe mwenekaciro-nyumba an'dzabwera: penu ni maulo, penu ni pakati pausiku, penu ni congwe wakuyamba, ayai madandakweca.
36Kuti angakwanise kudzabwera mwa cisututu, aleke kudzakugumanani mudagona.
37Bzomwe ndiri kulewabzi, ndiri kuwuza mwentse ‘Khalani wakupenya.’”
