Yohane 8:42-59

⁴²Yesu kawalongela, “Ka Imulungu ang'awile Aba wenu, mng'amnoghele, kwaapfila ndawa kwe Imulungu na sambi nahano. Sitsile bae kwa uwetso wangu imwenyegho, ila yeye kanituma.

⁴³Ebali ng'amchimanya bae chanilonga? Kwaapfila mwemwe ng'amdaha bae kuhulikitsa chanilonga.

⁴⁴Mwolawa kwa aba wenu Yehile, na mwotenda ka aba wenu pfayobama. Kulawa mwanduso tsakawakoma iwanu, kwaapfila kuduhu ukweli kuna yeye. Hayolonga ughutsu, kolonga chihendo chake, kwaapfila ka mghutsu na aba we ughutsu.

⁴⁵Na nene kwaapfila nolongesa, ng'amnitoghola bae.

⁴⁶Apfi mna mwemwe kuna imunu iyodaha kulapfa ukalangama ka nene nina nzambi? Ka nolongesa, ebali ng'amnitoghola bae?

⁴⁷Imunu we Imulungu kohulikitsa mbuli tse Imulungu. Mwemwe ng'amuhulikitsa kwaapfila mwemwe si iwanu we Imulungu bae.”

⁴⁸Wayahudi wamligha Yesu kwa kumghutsa, “Apfi ng'atulongile ghoya bae ka ghweghwe kwa Msamariya na kuna chinyamkela?”

⁴⁹Yesu kawedika, “Nene nahela chinyamkela, nene nomuhulikitsa Aba wangu lekeni mwemwe ng'amnihulikitsa bae.

⁵⁰Nene sibamila utunitso imwenyegho bae, ila kabaho iyoubama, ayo ka mlamutsi.

⁵¹Nowalongela ghendo, imunu wowose iyokinda ghamalaghitso ghangu ng'atsokufa bae.”

⁵²Wayahudi wamlongela Yesu, “Sambi twomanya kuna chinyamkela! Abrahamu na manabii wafa, lekeni ghweghwe kwolonga imunu wowose iyokinda ghamalangulitso ghako ng'atsakufa bae.

⁵³Angu ghweghwe kwa mbala kubita aba wetu Abrahamu iyafile? Pfipfila manabii nawo wafa. Apfi ghweghwe kwolonga uli nani?”

⁵⁴Yesu kawedika, “Ning'etunya imwenyegho, utunitso wangu si chinu. Aba wangu yamumkema Imulungu wenu, yeye iyo yonitunya.

⁵⁵Mwemwe ng'amummanya bae, lekeni nene nommanya. Ning'alonga simmanyile bae, nitsakuwa mghutsu ka mwemwe. Lekeni nommanya na nokinda imbuli yake.

⁵⁶Aba wenu Abrahamu kadeng'elela kwaajili ya kulyona litsuwa lya kutsa kwangu, naye kalyona, kalideng'elela.”

⁵⁷Wayahudi wamlongela Yesu, “Ghweghwe ng'una upfike imiyaka hamsini, naghwe kumwona Abrahamu!”

⁵⁸Yesu kawedika, “Nowalongela ghendo, Abrahamu ng'ana yelekighwe nene nabaho.”

⁵⁹Kuya wadondola ghamabwe wabama wamtowe Yesu, lekeni Yesu kalawa mne Ing'anda ye Imulungu.
