1 Mafarisayo tsawahulika ka Yesu yang'ali yowatenda iwanu wengi wawe iwanang'ina na kuwabatitsa kubita Yohane,
2 lekeni Yesu ng'abatitse bae iwanu, ila iwanang'ina wake iwo iwabatitse.
3 Yesu hayahulike apfi, kalawa Yudeya koya Galilaya,
4 mne ghumwanza ghwake tsakabamighwa kubitila Samariya.
5 Tsakapfika Samariya hanu hakemighwe Sikari, habehi na mghunda ghula Yakobu ghwamwing'ile Yosefu, imwanaghe.
6 Baho tsakukala na chisima cha Yakobu, kwaapfila Yesu tsakepfa kwa ghumwanza ghwake, apfo kakala hasi habehi ne chisima. Tsaikala nemisi.
7 Ipinga yumwe Msamariya tsakatsa kudegha ghamatsi, Yesu kamlongela, “Ungaye ghamatsi nuwe.”
8 Iwanang'ina wake tsawaghenda mkaye kughula ichijo.
9 Ipinga ayo kamwidika, “Ghweghwe kwa Myahudi, nene na Msamariya. Ule kwonomba ghamatsi?” Tsakalonga apfi kwaapfila Wayahudi na Wasamariya ng'awajagha hamwe bae.
10 Yesu kamwidika, “Ung'amanyile ichinu chayolapfa Imulungu na nani iyokulomba ghamatsi gho ukunwa, ung'amlombile, naye ang'akwing'ile ghamatsi ighoghala ughima.”
11 Ipinga ayo kalonga, “Imtwatsa, kwahela chinu cha kudeghela ghamatsi, ne chisima chighendesa. Lelo utsoghapata kwani ghamatsi ghe ughima?
12 Apfi ghweghwe kwa mbala kubita aba wetu Yakobu iyatwing'ile chisima chino, yeye mwenyegho ne iwanaghe ne iwanyama wake tsawanwa ghamatsi ghe chisima chino?”
13 Yesu kamwidika, “Imunu wowose iyakunwa ghamatsi ghano, katsakona ng'ilu keli,
14 lekeni imunu wowose iyakunwa ghamatsi ghanimwing'a nene, ng'atsakona ng'ilu keli. Ghamatsi ghanimwing'a nene ghatsakuwa mbwibwi iilapfa ghamatsi gha ughima mghati mwake na ghatsomwing'a ughima wa ghamatsuwa ghose.”
15 Ipinga ayo kamlongela, “Mtwatsa ngaya ghamatsi agho ndeke kwona ng'ilu keli, kuya ndeke kutsa hano keli kudegha ghamatsi.”
16 Yesu kamlongela, “Ghenda ukamkeme mmale wako, utse naye.”
17 Ipinga ayo kamwidika, “Nahela mmale.” Yesu kamlongela, “Kolonga ghoya haulonga kwahela mmale.
18 Kwaapfila tsakukwelighwa ne iwamale watano, na mmale yauli naye sambi si mmale wako bae. Chaulongile kulongesa ghendo.”
19 Ipinga ayo kalonga, “Imtwatsa, nakwona ghweghwe kwa nabii.
20 Iwabala wetu tsawamtamanila Imulungu hane lughongo luno, lekeni mwemwe Wayahudi mwolonga twobamighwa tumtamanile Imulungu ako Yerusalemu.”
