⁷Nikuemao, Yesu yalaga awalonzi waae otino, “Mutuirane Yudeea.”

⁸Awalonzi waae waamuirania watino, “Omugerezi, oagala mbwe tuirane Yudeea ni izuuzi ano awakangasi awa *Awayaudi waagalanga okukuba eyo na amawaale?”

⁹Yesu yawairania mu olugero otino, “Omuwasu ngaguri ne enyinga ikumi ni iwiri ezia okukola emirimo? Omuntu ogenda-genda omuwasu ngaiguunya yaaya aeniki awona no owueru owumurika ekialo kino.

¹⁰Ogenda-genda owuire iye aiguunya aeniki agenda-genda aa owueru wuwula.”

¹⁴Kutio Yesu yawalaga owuigoloole otino, “Lazaaro amiire okufwa,

¹⁵kandi nsangaarre ino mbwe okwo kuikorre ni mbula a-ampi ao, aeniki okwo kuuza okugera muwe no okuganya ku inze. Ni mutugie aa ari.”

¹⁶Thomaasi (owalukwa eriina Mulongo) yalaga awalonzi awiina waae otino, “Mutugie no Omwami twona, aa namba na agia okuitwa, tugie tufwe nae.”

¹⁷Olwa Yesu na awalonzi waae waatuuka a-ampi no omugizi, yatuukra Lazaaro na amiire okumala amiire ane mu iwuuta omwa ya-awirwamo.

¹⁹Kwatuukra na Awayaudi wangi ino waaza Bethania, aawu Maaria ni Mariitha okuwaoreezia emioyo ku okuteesia Lazaaro wamwawu.

²⁰Olwa Mariitha yawurra mbwe Yesu aaza, yafuma okugia okumuaganra, ni Maaria iye yasigala engo.

²¹Mariitha yalaga Yesu otino, “Omwami, kuweeko mbwe wawerenga ano, wamwifu ngakafwire yaaya!

²²Ni manyire mbwe namba nyingeeno Katonda aaza okuku-aa ekintu-ukintu ekia omusawire.”

²³Yesu yamuirania otino, “Wamwinyu aaza okuziuka awe omulamu.”

²⁴Maritha yamuirania otino, “Manyire mbwe aaza okuziuka nyanga olwa owuire owua owutuuko.”

²⁵Yesu yamulaga otino, “Inze ni inze oziusia awantu kandi ni inze o-aa awantu owulamu. Omuntu-umuntu ori no okuganya ku inze aaza okuwa omulamu kandi, namba ni kuri mbwe amiire okufwa.

²⁶Kandi omuntu-umuntu ori omulamu na aweere no okuganya ku inze ngarifwa. Mberi oganyire na amangʼana ago?”

²⁷Mariitha yamuirania otino, “Ee Omwami, ndi no okuganya mbwe iwue ni iwue *Meesia, Omuzia owa Katonda, owawanga na asugaane aaze ku ekialo.”

²⁸Ni Mariitha yamala okuwoola otio, yairana engo agia aeta Maaria na awantu watamanyire amulaga otino, “Omugerezi amiire okuuza ari a-ampi ano akueta.”

²⁹Olwa Maaria yawurra amangʼana ago yaema afuma wuangu-wuangu okugia okuaganra Yesu.

³⁰Yesu yawanga na akiari okuingira ku omugizi ogwa Bethania, ni yawanga na akiari mala aa Mariitha yawanga na amurekere.

³¹Awayaudi awaawanga ni Maaria mu enyumba ni wamuoreezia omwoyo waafuma okumulonda olwa waamuwona na afuma enze wuangu-wuangu. Iwo waaingirizianga mbwe owuo afuma agia ku ekiwaga ekia wamwawu okurra.

³²Olwa Maaria yatuuka aa Yesu yawanga mala amuwona, yakuba ansi amasigamo atanika okuwoola otino, “Omwami, kuweeko mbwe owerenga ano, wamwifu ngakafwire yaaya!”

³³Olwa Yesu yamuwona na arra wululu, alala na Awayaudi awaaza okumuoreezia omwoyo woona ni warra wululu otio, yawurra owululu kandi yainyaasia ino mu omwoyo gwae.

³⁴Yawawuuzia mbwe, “Mumuawiirei?” Awantu awo waamuirania watino, “Omwami iza tugie owone aa tumuawiire.”

³⁵Yesu yarra amaziga gayooka.

³⁶Okwo kwagera Awayaudi awaawanga ao wawoola watino, “Awiifu muwoneko kiomo yawerenga na agonziizie Lazaaro!”

³⁷Na awandi ku iwo waawoola watino, “No omuntu ono yaiguulao amiiso aga omuntu omuwuunu, ngaeserenga okuigarra olumbe luno lureke okuita Lazaaro?”

³⁸Amasaasra kandi ga-amba Yesu agia ku ekiwaga aa waawanga ni wamuawiire. Ekiwaga kiawanga iwuuta eria iwaale riteerwe ku omunwa.

³⁹Yesu yalaga awantu awaawangao awo otino, “Mutooleo oguwaale oguri ku omunwa ao ogwo.” Ni Maritha wamwawu Lazaaro yamuirania otino, “Omwami nyingeeno katio awunya ekivundu aeniki amiire okumala amiire ane mu iwuuta.”

⁴⁰Olwa yawoola otio Yesu yamuirania otino, “Ngʼamberenga ni miire okukulaga mbwe no oweere no okuganya, ooza okuwona amaani aga Katonda?”
