16“Avo, wali wa haikimambukizo wowa wa haichanduso, na wali wa haichanduso wowa wa haikimambukizo.”
17Yesu viyakalile yochola Yelusalemu, mnzila kawasola wanahina longo dimwe na wabili hamgwazo weiyeka, na kuwalongela,

19abaho, kogeligwa mmakono ga Wamhazi, womtendela uponela, womulanha mbalati, na womuwamba mumsalaba, ila mdizua da ikadatu kozuka.”
20Abaho, mama wa wana wa Zebedayo kamcholela Yesu hamoja na wanage, kamfugamila mavindi giladi yapule kinhu.
21Yesu kamulongela, “Kolonda choni?” Ija imtwanzi kamwidika yolonga, “Lagiza kamba wanangu wano wabili, imwe yakale mkono wako wa ukulume na iyagwe yakale mkono wako wa ukumoso muna Undewa wako.”
22Yesu kawalongela, “Hammanyile kinhu chumpula. Modaha kuking'wela kikasi cha mgayo kinilondigwa kuking'wela nie?” Wamwidika walonga, “Todaha.”
23Yesu kawalongela, “Moking'wela kikasi cha migayo kining'wela nie, ila kukala kumkono wangu wa ukulume na wa ukumoso siyo sang'hano yangu. Ila hanhu aho wekiligwa waja wose watandiligwe na Tataangu.”
24Wanahina wayagwe longo dimwe viwahulike vino, wawonela lusango Yakobo na Yohana.
25Ila Yesu kawakema hamoja kawalongela, “Movitanga kamba wandewa wa Wamhazi wowatawala na mhiko, na wakulu zao wana udaho mwa wanhu zao.
26Sambiiwe vino kumwenu. Ila munhu yoyose mmwanza wenu yahalonda kuwa mkulu, kolondigwa yawe mtumigwa wenu.
27Na munhu yoyose mmwanza wenu yahalonda kuwa waichanduso, kolondigwa yawe nyakadala wenu.
28Kwavija Mwana wa Munhu hezile kusang'hanikilwa, ila kusang'hanikila wayagwe, na kulava ugima wake giladi yawakombole wanhu bwando.”
29Yesu na wanahina zake viwasegele Yeliko, wanhu bwando wamkweleleza.
30Haja kukala na vimbugumbugu wabili wakalile hamgwazo wa inzila, na viwahulike kamba Yesu kobita, wenula dizwi, walonga, “Mndewa, Mwana wa Daudi, tonele bazi!”
31Didale da wanhu diwakomhokela na kuwalongela wanyamale. Ila wagendelela kwinula dizwi, wolonga, “Mndewa, Mwana wa Daudi, tonele bazi!”
32Yesu kema, abaho, kawakema kawauza, “Molonda niwatendele choni?”
33Wamulongela, “Mndewa, tolonda tulole!”
34Yesu kawonela bazi, kagakwasa meso gao. Bahaja wadaha kulola, abaho, wamkweleleza.
