²Mpaka lishaka lilii pakanyasulitwi kugenda kumpindi kwa Mlungu. Pamberi pa kunyasulwa kugenda kumpindi, kawapananiti malagaliru kupitira Rohu Mnanagala wantumintumi walii yakawasyaguliti.

³Pakuhowa kwakuwi, yomberi kalilanguziyiti mweni kwa womberi na kulilanguziya nakaka kuwera mweni ka mkomu. Yomberi kawalawiriti kwa shipindi sha mashaka malongu msheshi na yomberi kayoweriti nawu kuusu Ufalumi wa Mlungu.

⁴Shipindi shimu yomberi pakaweriti nawu, kawapananiti lagaliru ali, “Namlawa amu Yerusalemu, su muliheperi lagilu lya Tati, lilii lyampikaniriti neni nonga kuusu visoweru vyakuwi.

⁵Toziya Yohani kawabatiziti kwa mashi, kumbiti pa mashaka gavuwa ndiri mwenga hamubatizwi kwa Rohu Mnanagala.”

⁶Su wantumintumi pawaliwoniti pamuhera na Yesu, womberi wamkosiyiti, “Mtuwa, shipindi ashi haguwuziyi ufalumi kwa Israeli?”

⁷Yesu kawagambira, “Vyamwenga ndiri kuvimana vipindi ama zitarehi Tati gwangu kavitula muukolamlima wakuwi.

⁸Kumbiti hamwanki likakala Rohu Mnanagala pakawayizireni mwenga, na hamuweri wapitawu waneni Muyerusalemu na Muyudeya yoseri na Samariya na ata upeleru wa pasipanu.”
