7 Abaho dilawilila wingu na kuwagubika na sauti ilawa mdiwingu, ilonga, “Ino ayo Mwanangu inimnogele. Mumtegeleze!”
8 Bahaja wawegesela kuno na kuno, lakini hawamonile munhu yoyose iyagwe, ila Yesu yaiyeka hamoja nao.
9 Viwakalile wohumuluka kulugongo Yesu kawazuma, “Sekemumulongele munhu yoyose mbuli zino zimone, mbaka Mwana wa Munhu vonda yazilibuke kulawa kwa wafile.”
10 Watogola kija kiwalongeligwe, lakini wasonga kuiuza, “Kuzilibuka kwa wafile, fambulo jake choni?”
11 Wanahina zake wamuuza Yesu, “Habali wafundiza Malagizo ga Musa wolonga Eliya kolondeka yeze tanhu?”
12 Yesu kawedika, “Ona, Eliya kokwiza tanhu, muladi yakitande goya kila kinhu. Lakini habali Maandiko Gang'alile golonga, Mwana wa Munhu kodununzika ng'hani na kulemigwa?
13 Nowalongeleni, Eliya kamala kwiza na wanhu wamtendela viwalondile, kamba vija Maandiko Gang'alile vigalonga.”
14 Viwawavikile waja wanahina wayagwe, waluwona lunhu lwa wanhu luwazunguluka na wafundiza Malagizo ga Musa wayagwe wakala woibamilila nao.
15 Bahaja wanhu viwamone Yesu wakanganya ng'hani, wamkimbilila, wamulamusa.
16 Yesu kawauza wanahina zake, “Mweye moibamilila nao choni?”
17 Munhu imoja mna ulunhu lwa wanhu kamwidika, “Mfundiza, nikugalila mwanangu, kana kinyamkela yamfungile mulomo.
18 Kinyamkela ayo yahamwizila, komulagaza hasi na kolawa miholovu mumulomo, kodafuna meno na kunyala lukuli lose. Niwalongela wanahina zako wamulave ikinyamkela, lakini hawadahile bule.”
19 Yesu kawalongela, “Mweye wanhu muleka kutamanila! Ng'hale na mweye mbaka lini? Nogela kitumbe kumgongo mbaka lini? Ngalileni hano imbwanga.”
20 Avo wamgala kwa Yesu. Bahaja kinyamkela viyamone Yesu, kamgela kisango imbwanga ayo, kagwa hasi, kaibimbilisa, kuno kolava mihovu mumulomo.
21 Yesu kamuuza tata wa imbwanga ayo, “Utamu uno umsonga lini?” Kamwidika, “Umsonga toka haudodo.
22 Miyanza mingi kinyamkela kamgeza kumkoma kwa kumbwanha muumoto na mgamazi. Tonele bazi na ututaze, kamba wahadaha!”
23 Yesu kamulongela, “Kolonga, kamba wahadaha! Kila kinhu chodahika kwa munhu yotamanila.”
24 Bahaja tata wa imbwanga ija kakemelela, “Notamanila, lakini kutamanila kwangu kudodo. Nhaze nitamanile ng'hani!”
25 Yesu viyaluwone lunhu lowamemela, kamkomhokela kinyamkela ayo, “Gweye kinyamkela wa kuleka kulonga na kuhulika, nokulagiza umulawe mbwanga ino, sekeumwingile kabili!”
26 Kinyamkela kaguta, kambwanha hasi mbwanga ayo, kamulawa. Mbwanga ayo koneka kamba munhu yafile, kila munhu kalonga, “Kafa!”
27 Lakini Yesu kamgoga mkono mbwanga ayo kamtaza kwinuka, nayo kenuka.
28 Yesu viyengile mng'anda, wanahina zake wamuuza kinyelegezi, “Habali tweye hatudahile kumulava kinyamkela?”
29 Yesu kawedika, “Kinyamkela kamba ino hadahika kulavigwa kwa nzila yoyose, ila kwa kumpula Mulungu kwiiyeka.”
30 Yesu na wanahina zake wasegela hanhu aho wachola kubitila isi ya Galilaya. Yesu halondile munhu yoyose yajuwe kuyeli,
31 kwavija kakala kowafundiza wanahina zake. Kawalongela, “Mwana wa Munhu kogeligwa mmakono ga wanhu, nao womkoma na siku da kadatu kozilibuka.”
32 Lakini wanahina zake hawadijuwile fambulo da ulonzi awo na wadumba kumuuza.
33 Wavika Kapelinaumu, viwengile mng'anda, Yesu kawauza wanahina zake, “Mukala muibamilila choni mnzila?”
34 Lakini wanahina zake hawamwidike bule, kwavija mnzila wakala woibamilila nani yeli munhu mkulu viweli.
35 Yesu kakala hasi, kawakema wanahina zake longo na wabili, kawalongela, “Munhu yoyose yolonda kuwa wa ichanduso, kolondeka yawe wa ikimambukizo na yawe msang'hanaji wa wose.”
36 Abaho Yesu kamsola mwana mdodo kamwimiza haulongozi wao, kamuhagatila kawalongela,
37 “Munhu yoyose yombokela mwana mdodo kamba ino kwa twaga jangu, kombokela niye, na munhu yoyose yombokela niye hambokela niye niiyeka vivija kombokela ija yanhumile.”
38 Yohana kamulongela Yesu, “Mfundiza, tumona munhu imoja kolava vinyamkela kwa twaga jako. Tweye tumgomesa kwavija siyo miyetu.”
