³Ayu msongola findu ng'odu? Mwana wa Maliya na valongu vaki vakina Yakobi, Yose, Yuda na Simoni? Na vahaja vaki vakwikala bahapa ng'odu?” Topi, vamlema.

⁴Yesu kavawombela, “Mbuyi akupikanishwa mahali posi, ila akupikanishwa ha mumbwani yaki na kwa valongu vaki na kaya yaki.”

⁵Yesu kawesha ha kugola mihilu yoyosi pala, kavavikila vatami vadokwa hela mawoku, kavalowola.

⁶Kajinga nendu kwanongwa vandu vavahela ujumilwa. Pambeli Yesu kafityangila fijiji fya pabehi, pavawula vandu.

⁷Kavakema vala vanachuli lilongu na vavili, kakanda kuvalayisha vavili vavili. Kavagayila uwesu wa kuvawusha finyamkela.

⁸Pambeli kavawombela, “Mkotoo kutola chindu chochosi mumwanja, ila lukweku weka hela. Mkotoo kutola filivi, wala muhaku, wala mbiya muchiwunu.

⁹Mfwali filatu, lakini mukotoo kutola yingwa yimonga.

¹⁰Nyumba yoyosi yivavalibushila, mwikali mula mbaka pamuwuka mbwani ayi.

¹¹Na mahali poposi vandu pavalema kuvalibushila ama kuvapikanisha, muwuki mupundi lifu mumawulu venu. Ayi dayivi utovileli kwa veni.”

¹²Topi vayenda na kuvalandulila vandu vapomeli.

¹³Vavafumisha finyamkela vatangalili na kuvashaya mafuta vatami vatangalili na kuvalowola.

¹⁴Mutwa Helodi papikanishili filongu afi fyosi, kwanongwa litawa lya Yesu lipikanika mahali posi. Vandu vamonga vadetili, “Yohani mbatisha kashukuka! Ndi nongwa yaveli na liwovi lya kugola mihilu ayi.”

¹⁵Lakini vamonga vadetili, “Ayu Eliya.” Vamonga vadetili, “Ayu mbuyi, kucha vala vambuyi va dahili.”

¹⁶Helodi papikanishili filongu afi, kadeta, “Yohani mbatisha yindimdumulili mutwi kashukuka!”

¹⁷Kwa nongwa dahili Helodi mweni alayishili kucha Yohani mbatisha akamuliwi na awopiwi muchijaka. Agolili naha kwanongwa amuhetili Helodiya, mdala wa Filipu na Filipu avelili mfwata mundu Helodi

¹⁸Yohani mbatisha amuwombilili Helodi, “Malawu vakulema yuwi kumtola mwehi wa mlongu waku!”

¹⁹Naha Helodiya kamkalalila nendu Yohani mbatisha, kadayila kumuwulagha, lakini kawesha ha nongwa ya Helodi.

²⁰Helodi amtilili Yohani mbatisha kwanongwa amanyili aveli mundu mnofu yang'alili, topi aveli akumlolela. Adayilaya kumpikanisha Yohani mbatisha, mani hela pamupikanishili kala, ajingili nendu.

²¹Lijuva limu Helodiya apatili fwasi mulihungu lya kuwoneka kwa Helodi. Helodi avagolilili lihungu vatavala, vakulu va machonda na filongosi wa mlima wa Galilaya.
