1“Nkambo bwami bwakujulu buli mbuli mwanimunda wakazwa kuseni loko kuyotamba basikubeleka mumuunda wakwe wamasansa.
2Nikwakamana kuzuminana abasimulimu kudinali lyomwe abuzuba, wakabatuma kumunda wamasansa wakwe.
3Alubo wakenda chindi chamahola atatu mpawo wakabona bamwi basimilimu kabayimvwi kabatakwe nchibachita kubusena bwakuuzizya.
4Kuli mbabo wakati, 'Anywebo, kamuya mumuunda wamasansa alubo ndilakumupa zilikabotu.' Nkako bakayinka kumulimu.
5Alimwi wakiinka kunze muhola lyamusanu alimwi amuhola lyamusanu aane, akuyochita chikozyenie.
6Limbi lubo kusika kuhola lyakkumi alimwi wakazwa alimwi wakujana bamwi balimvwi katakwe nchibalikuchita.
7Wakati kulimbabo, 'nkambonzi nimwimvwi awa kamutakwe nchimulikuchita zuba lyoonse?' “Kulinguwe bakamba kuti, 'nkambo takwe pe watutambila mulimo.' “kulimbabo wakati, ánywebo lubo mwinke mumunda wamasansa.”
8Lino nilyakaba golezya, mwani muunda wakati kumupati wamulimo, 'Yita basikubeleka alubo ubape bulumbu bwabo, utangune abasyalizi umane akumutaanzi.'
9Eelyo basimilimo bakanjila ahola lyakkumi alimwi bakeza, awumwi wabo wakatambula dinali.
10Nibakeza basimulimo batanzi, bakalikuyeya kuti balatambula zyiingi, pesi abalabo bakatambula dinali lyomwe awumwi.
11Nibakatambula bulumbu bwabo, bakasyoloka atala mwanimunda.
12Bakati, 'Aba basimulimo basyalizi babeleka biyo hola lyomwe, pesi mwabachitila bvukozyenie andiswe, iswebo nitwaminwa buzuba bonse alubo muzuba lyuumpa obu.'
13“Pesi mwanimunda wakavwiila umwi wabo wati, 'mwenzuma, takwe chibi nchindamuchitila. Temwazuminene andime na ku dinali lyomwe?
14Amubweze zyanu mwende enzila yanu. Ndasala kupa basimulimo basyalizi zikozyenie azyenu.
15Tazili mumulawu na kuchita mbuli m bwenjanda achintu changu? Wabasibbivwe na nkambo ndimwabi?'
16Nkinkako musyalizi uyoba mutanzi, amutaanzi uyoba musyalizi.” Malembe aansiku mabotu takwe banji bayitidwe, pesi basalidwe mbache.
17Lino Jesu nakalikuya ku Jelusalema, wakabweza abalikkumi ababili kumbali, alubo munzila wakati kulimbabo,
18“Amubone, tuyobuya ku Jelusalema, alubo Mwana Muntu nkwayowabwa mumaboko abapayizi bapati abalembi basimulawu. Bayomutama kusikila kulufu
19alubo bayomutola kuli bamasi kuti bamuniake, akumuuma, akuyomubambula. Pesi mubuzuba bwatatu uyobusigwa.”
20Mpawo banyina babana balombe ba Zebbediya bakaza kuli Jesu abana babo. Wakafugama aansi kunembo lyakwe alubo wakakumbila chimwi chintu kulinguwe.
21Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Niinzi ncholombozya?” wakati kulinguwe, “Layila bana bangu aba kuti bakkale, umwi kululyo umwi kulumwensi lwaluboko, mubwami bwako.”
22Pesi Jesi wakasandula wati, “Tochizi nchokumbila. Ulakonzyana kunywa mukanywido nkindaamba kunywa?” Kulinguwe bakamba kuti, “Tulakonzya.”
23Wakamba kuti kulimbabo, “Kanywido kangu mulakonzya kunywa. Pesi kukkala kululyo lwangu akuchimweensi tendime uupa pe, pesi nzizyabaabo bakabambilwa a Taata.”
24Elyo basikwiya bamwi balikkumi nibakachimvwa echi bakanyema kapati abaaba babunyina babili.
25Pesi Jesu wakabita kulinguwe akwamba kuti, “mulizi kuti bendelezi babamaasi balabendelezya, abalabo bapati baabo babulemu bezyanisya nguzu zyabo alimbabo.
26Pesi tazyelede kuti kube anzila eyo akati kenu. Anukuti, kufumbwa ulomboozya kuba mupati akati kenu abe mulanda wenu,
27alubo kufumbwa ulombozya kuba mutanzi akati kenu welede kuba mulanda wenu,
28mbuli Mwana Muntu mbatakazidide kukutawukilwa, pesi kukutawuka, akupa buumi bwakwe mbuli muulo wabingi.”
29Nibakazwa ku Jelikko, inkamu mpati yakamutobela.
30Kwakali balumi babili boofu bakakkede kumbali lyamugwagwa. Elyo nibakamvwa kuti Jesu walikwiinda, bakompolola, “Mwami, Mwana Davida, ba aluzyalo andiswe.”
31Mbungano yakaba kalalila, bababuzya kuti bawumune, pesi bakakwila chakwindilila, “Mwami, Mwana Davida, ba luzyalo kulindiswe.”
32Mpawo Jesu wakayima alubo wakita kulimbabo wati, “ninzi nchimulombozya kuti ndimuchitile?”
33Bakaamba kuti kulinguwe, “Mwami, kuti meso esu ajulike.”
34Mpawo Jesu, kali wasungilizigwa aluzyalo, wakabaguma meso aabo, mpoonya awo bakatambula kubona akumutobela.
