12Gweye kwa mkulu kum'banza muhenga wetu Yakobo yatugwelele kisima kino, na heyo mwenyego na wanage na madale gake ga ng'hondolo wose wang'wa mazi ga kisima kino?”
13Yesu kamulongela, “Wanhu wose wong'wa mazi gano wokona ng'hilu kabili,
14ila munhu yoyose yondayang'we mazi gondanimgwelele nie hondayone ng'hilu kabili. Mazi gondanimgwelele nie gogaluka nzokwe mgati yake, gondagamgwelele ugima wa digunge.”
15Ija imtwanzi kalonga, “Mndewa, ngwelela mazi higo! Giladi sambinyone ng'hilu kabili, na sambinize hano kudeha mazi.”
16Yesu kamulongela, “Genda kamkeme mbigalo wako, abaho, ubwele.”
17Ija imtwanzi kedika, “Nabule mbigalo.” Yesu kamulongela, “Kulonga goya avija vuulonga kwabule mbigalo.
18Kwavija kusoligwa na wambigalo watano, na mbigalo yuukala nayo sambi siyo mbigalo wako. Kunongela ikweli.”
19Ija imtwanzi kalonga, “Mndewa, nokona gweye kwa muhokozi.”
20Wahenga zetu wakala wotambika mkigongo kino, ila mweye mogong'ondeza kamba Yelusalemu baho hanhu ha kutambikila.
21Yesu kamulongela ija imtwanzi, “Nhegeleza nie, go mtwanzi, kipigiti chokwiza wanhu hawamtambikila Tata mkigongo kino ama kuja Yelusalemu.
