Yohana 5:3-15

³Lunhu mkulu lwa wanhu wolumwa lukala lutambalala mvihelengo vivo, wanhu wasuwameso, mbetembete na wanhu waholole. Wakala wobetela mazi gatibuligwe,

⁴kwavija kuna kipindi msenga wa kuulanga kezaga na kugatibula gaja gamazi geli kudikolombo, na mtamu yoyose yahalongola kwingila mazi gahamala kutibuligwa, kohona utamu wowose uyali nao.

⁵Aho kukala na munhu imoja mtamu kwa miyaka malongo madatu na nane.

⁶Yesu viyamone katambalala aho, kajuwa kamba munhu ayo kana utamu wa siku nyingi, avo Yesu kamuuza, “Kolonda kuhona?”

⁷Mtamu ayo kamwidika, “Go mkulu. Kuduhu munhu wa kuningiza kudikolombo mazi gahatibuligwa. Kila vinigeza kwingila, munhu iyagwe konilongolela.”

⁸Abaho Yesu kamulongela, “Winuke, papa mkeka wako, utembele.”

⁹Bahaja munhu ayo kahona, kapapa mkeka wake, kasonga kutembela. Mbuli ino ilawilila mwiisiku ya Kubwihila,

¹⁰avo wakulu wa Wayahudi wamulongela munhu ija yahonyigwe, “Lelo ni siku ya Kubwihila, Malagizo getu gogomesa gweye sekeupape mkeka wako.”

¹¹Munhu ayo yahonyigwe kawedika, “Munhu heyo yanihonyile kanilongela nipape mkeka wangu nigende.”

¹²Wamuuza, “Munhu gani heyo yakulongele utende vivo?”

¹³Lakini munhu ayo yahonyigwe kakala hamjuwile Yesu viyali, kwavija hanhu aho kukala na lunhu, na Yesu kakala yasegele.

¹⁴Abaho, Yesu kamvika munhu ayo yamuhonyile Mwiig'anda ya Mulungu. Kamulongela, “Tegeleza, gweye sambi kuhona. Sekeutende nzambi kabili, muladi sekegakupate gehile kubanza gano.”

¹⁵Abaho munhu ayo kasegela, kachola kwa iwakulu wa Wayahudi, kawalongela, “Yesu ayo yanihonyile.”
