Yohane 7:31-47

³¹Lekeni iwanu wengi kulawa mne likingili wamtoghola walonga, “Kiristu hayatsakutsa, apfi katsotenda pfihulo pfingi kubita imunu yuno?”

³²Mafarisayo wahulika iwanu wonong'ona mbuli tsa Yesu. Apfo iwatambika wakulu na Mafarisayo wawatuma iwabetetsi we Ing'anda ye Imulungu kumghogha Yesu.

³³Yesu kawalongela, “Nokala namwe kwa matsuwa chidogho, kuya nitsoghenda kwa ayula iyanitumile.

³⁴Mtsombama, lekeni ng'amtsombona bae, kwaapfila ng'amdaha bae kutsa hanu hanili.”

³⁵Wayahudi welongela, “Apfi imunu yuno katsoghenda kwani mbaka tuleke kumwona? Pfii katsoghenda mne kaye tsa Wagiriki iwokala iwanu wetu na kuwalangulitsa Wagiriki?

³⁶Apfi kana mana yachi hayalongile ‘Mtsonibama, lekeni ng'amtsombona’ na ‘ng'amdaha bae kutsa hanu hanili’?”

³⁷Litsuwa lya usighilo na litsuwa kulu lya ichihungo, Yesu kema, kakemelela, “Imunu wowose yane ng'ilu, yatse kuna nene yanwe.

³⁸Imunu wowose iyonitoghola nene, ka Ghamaandiko Mahenzeluka pfagholonga, ‘Imito ye ghamatsi iighala ughima itsokwitika kulawa mghati mwake.’ ”

³⁹Yesu tsayang'ali yolonga mbuli tse Ghumuhe, yawatsombokela iwanu awala iwomtoghola. Mbaka litsuwa lila iwanu tsawang'ali ng'aweng'ighwe bae Ghumuhe, kwaapfila Yesu tsakakala ng'ana yatunitsighwe ne Imulungu.

⁴⁰Hawahulike mbuli tsake, iwanu wangi walonga, “Kweli imunu yuno ka ayula Nabii.”

⁴¹Iwanu wangi walonga, “Ayuno ka Kiristu Mkombotsi.” Lekeni iwanu wangi wang'ali weghutsa, “Apfi Kiristu kodahatse kulawa Galilaya?

⁴²Apfi Ghamaandiko Maenzeluka ng'aghalongile bae Kiristu katsolawila mlukolo lwa imndewa Daudi na kwelekighwa Betilehemu, kaye yakalile Daudi?”

⁴³Apfo iwanu tsawebaghula kwaajili ya Yesu.

⁴⁴Iwanu wangi wabama kumghogha, lekeni kuduhu imunu iyamgholosele ghumoko.

⁴⁵Wakalitsi we Ing'anda ye Imulungu hawoyile, iwatambika wakulu na Mafarisayo wawaghutsa, “Ule ng'amtsile naye bae?”

⁴⁶Wakalitsi wawedika, “Kuduhu imunu yadahile kulonga ka imunu yuno!”

⁴⁷Mafarisayo wawaghutsa, “Pfii namwe pfipfila kawabugha?”
