Yohana 4:25-38

²⁵Mtwanzi ayo kamulongela Yesu, “Nojuwa Mkombola kokwiza, yokemigwa Kilisito, yaheza kotulongela mbuli zose.”

²⁶Yesu kamwidika, “Iyo nene, inilonga na gweye.”

²⁷Kipindi acho wanahina zake Yesu wabwela, wakanganya ng'hani viwamvikile Yesu kolonga na mtwanzi ayo. Lakini kuduhu imoja wao yamuuzile mtwanzi ayo, “Kolonda choni?” hebu yamuuze Yesu, “Habali kolonga na mtwanzi ino?”

²⁸Abaho mtwanzi ayo kaleka nongo yake ya mazi, kabweleganya kudibuga na kuwalongela wanhu,

²⁹“Izoni mumulole munhu yanongele gaja gose ganhendile. Vino hadaha kuwa Kilisito Mkombola?”

³⁰Avo wanhu wasegela kudibuga na kumgendela Yesu.

³¹Mna ikipindi kikija wanahina zake wamnanahiza Yesu, “Mfundiza, chonde, diya tanhu!”

³²Lakini Yesu kawedika, “Ninao lujo mweye hamulujuwile.”

³³Avo wanahina wasonga kuiuza, “Vino hana munhu kamgalila chakuja?”

³⁴Yesu kawalongela, “Ujaji wangu, ni kutenda goyolonda ija yanhumile na kuimambukiza sang'hano iyanigwelele.

³⁵Mweye mulongaga vino, ‘Ing'hali miezi mine tosonga kusenga.’ Lakini nowalongeleni, inuleni meso genu mulole mmigunda! Vihandigwe vikangala volondeka visengigwe!

³⁶Msengaji kolipigwa, na kwika hamoja indiya kwa ugima wa mazuwa gose. Avo muhandaji na msengaji wose wadeng'helele hamoja.

³⁷Ulonzi uno wa kweli, ‘Imoja kohanda iyagwe kosenga.’

³⁸Niwatuma mkasenge mumgunda kinhu kija hamkisang'hanile, wanhu wayagwe awo wasang'hane, na mweye momweda kwa sang'hano yao.”
