1Logakwete mazuwa sita, Yesu nakawahola Petili na Yakubu na Yohani mng'holoze, nakaluta nawo waliyeka kuchaya kuchidunda chikulu.
2Ako, Yesu nakagaluka kumeho hali hewo, kumeho kwa heye nakung'hala kota isanya na nguwo zoyavalile ziwa nzelu kota lumuli.
3Musa na Eliya nawawalawila, wali wolongasa na heye.
4Aho Petili nakamlonjela Yesu, “Mkulu, inoga kwa hetwe kuwa hano! Hougana ndozenga vibumuli vidatu. Chimwe cha hegwe na chimwe cha Musa na chimwe cha Eliya.”
5Loyali yang'hali yolonga ahyo, ng'hungugu nzelu iwagubika, na lizi ihulikwa kulawa kuli ayo ng'hungugu, “Ayu ndo Mwana wa heni ndimganile, ndilingunojezwa na heye. Mhulichizeni.”
6Walanguswa vyowahuliche ahyo wagwa chifugama, nawadumba ng'hatu.
7Yesu nakawalutila, kawadoliza, nakalonga, “Mwime mleche kudumba!”
8Lowalolile kuchanya hawamuwene munhu, ila Yesu nayaliyeka.
9Lelo lowali wodulika kulawa kuchidunda, Yesu nakawadeuza, “Mleche kumlonjela munhu mbuli yomuwene mbaka Mwana wa Munhu loyozilipuka kulawa kowabagame.”
10Hamba walanguswa nawamuuza, “Lekachoni walangusa wa malajizo ga Musa wangulonga igana tandi Eliya yoye?”
11Yesu nakawedichila, “Mkomya, Eliya kokuya tandi kuwika goya mbuli zeng'ha.
12Ila ndanguwalonjelani, Eliya mina koya na hewo nahawamzelele, ila nawamditila vila vyowaganile. Hihyo du, Mwana wa Munhu kogazigwa mmoko mwawo.”
13Aho wala walanguswa nawavizela kota yaliyowalonjela mbuli ya Yohani Mbatiza.
14Lowaufichile kahi lula lung'hongola lwa wanhu, munhu yumwe nakamlutila Yesu, kafugama,
15nakalonga, “Mkulu, monele isungu mwana wa heni kwa vila kana chinzilisa, kahi kangugazigwa lukami, mala nyinji heye kagugwa mchiluli na mmazi.
16Nandimigala kwa walanguswa wa hegwe ila walemwela kumlohola.”
17Yesu nakedichila, “Hemwe lulelo lulihela makundo, lwajilile! Ndochikala na hemwe mbaka hanili? Ndowemilila hemwe mbaka hanili? Mmigale hano ayo mwana.”
18Lelo Yesu nakaching'hanuchila chila chijeni, na heye chimlawa, na yula mwana kawa mkomu mhela wuwo.
19Hamba walanguswa nawamlutila Yesu chinyele, nawamuuza, “Lekachoni hetwe tulemwela kulavya chila chijeni?”
20Yesu nakawedichila, “Kwa vila makundo ga hemwe mado. Ndanguwalonjelani ndikomya, wone hela muwe na makundo mado kota nyhule ndodo ya haladali, moweza kuchilonjela chidunda achi, ‘Ulawe hano ulute hala,’ Nawo woluta. Kuduhu ne chinhu chilemwelwa kwa hemwe.”
21Vijeni vya nhanzi ino havilavyagwa hihi hela, ila kwa kulanda na kwesela kulya.
22Lowali hamwe ako Galilaya, Yesu nakawalonjela, “Mwana wa Munhu kanguzawichigwa mmoko mwa wanhu.
23Womkopola, ila zuwa lya kadatu kulawa kubagama, kozilipuligwa.” Walanguswa nawesinza ng'hatu.
24Lowafichile Kapanaumu wanhu wali wokongoza kodi ya ng'handa ya Nguluwi nawamlutila Petili, wamuuza, “Ndaze, mlangusa wa hemwe kalavyaga kodi ya Ng'handa ya Nguluwi?”
25Petili nakedichila, “Ena, nakalavyaga.” Lelo Petili loyenjile mgati mwa ng'handa, yang'hali longa luzi, Yesu nakamuuza, “Simoni, hegwe kwangona ndaze? Wandewa wa isi hukongozaga kodi kulawa kwa whaani? Kulawa kwa wanhu wa isi, ama kulawa kwa wajenzi?”
26Petili nakedichila, “Kulawa kwa wajenzi.” Yesu nakamlonjela, “Hino lelo, hailinguwalapa wanhu wa isi.
27Ila kwa vila tuleche kuwazudizani, mlute kuli ilamba mkatoze ndoano, ulowe somba ya mwaluko kugwila, ugubule kumlomo, na mgati kozifika sendi za zaka. Uhole ukamhe kwa chiwalo cha heni na ya hegwe.”
