Yowaana 12:15-40

¹⁵“Mutawa no owuti inywe awantu awa Yerusaleemu. Muwoneko Omwami iinyu aaza na aniinre entikiri ekiari embuuka.”

¹⁶Awalonzi awa Yesu ngawakamanya ekia ekiaikola kino kialagananga. No olwa Yesu yaziusiwua aema ku awafu kandi aeewua owunene, awalonzi waae waagia wamanya mbwe yakorrwa ewintu ewia yajojwako kale mbwe arikorrwa.

¹⁷Omurima ogwa awantu awaawanga ni Yesu olwa yaziusia Lazaaro okuema ku awafu waagia emberi okulanzia amangʼana aga okuziuka okwa Lazaaro.

¹⁸Awantu awangi awaawurra amangʼana aga amankono aga Yesu yakola gano waagia okumuagaanra.

¹⁹Kutio *Awafarisaayo waatanika okuwoola agati yaawu aweene watino, “Muwona, ifwe kiwulao ekia tukola. Ngamuwonako kiomo ekialo kiona kigaluuke kimulonda?”

²⁰Awandi ku awantu awaawanga ni wagiire okusawa Katonda Yerusaleemu, mu omugomo ogwa Pasaaka ogwo, waawanga Awagiriiki.

²¹Awagiriiki awo waagia ku Piliipo, owawanga na aema Bethsaida mu ekialo ekia Galiili, wamusawa watino, “Omukangasi, tuagiilenga okuwona Yesu.”

²²Piliipo yagia alaga Andereeya amangʼana ago, nikwo waagia alala wairra Yesu amangʼana ago.

²³Yesu yawairania na awalaga otino, “Amiire aga oku-aa *Omuzia owa Omuntu owunene gamiire okutuuka.

²⁴Kuwuene mbalaga mbwe ne emwo eya emere ekiari okugwa mu ilowa efwe, esigala-usigala endala otio. Ni ne efwire, efumia emwo enyingi okukira kiomo yawanga endala.

²⁵Omuntu ogonziizie owulamu wuae omwene aaza okuwuteesia, no omuntu oregere owulamu wuae ku ekialo kino, iye ariwutuukra mu omulamu owutariwua.

²⁶Omuntu onkorra paka andonde, kandi asi-uasi aa ndi, awemirimo wange woona wariwaao. Soifu Katonda aaza oku-aa awankorra emirimo owunene.”

²⁷Yesu yagia emberi na awoola otino, “Nyingeeno omwoyo gwange guinyaasia kandi ngʼamanyire mbwe mboole mbwe, ‘Soifu nunule ku emidambo egiri emberi wange gino?’ Yaaya, kino nikio ekiandeeta okukola, kutio ngʼanyiza okuwoola ekintu.

²⁸Soifu Katonda, aa eriina riao owunene!” Nikuemao, omwoyo gwaema ku igulu ogwawoola gutino, “Miire oku-aa eriina riange owunene kandi nkiaza okuri-aa owunene.”

²⁹Omurima ogwawanga ao gwawurra omwoyo ogwo kandi waawoola mbwe gwaduma. Na awandi waawoola mbwe *enyankoi nio owagamba-gamba ni Yesu.

³⁰Yesu yawalaga otino, “Ni inywe omwoyo oguemere ku igulu guno guuzre okutunzia, ni ngʼani inze yaaya.

³¹Zino nizio enyinga ezia Katonda aaza okukengera ekialo kino ekiina kandi ezia Katonda aaza okurumusia *Sataani omukangasi owa ekialo kino.

³²Ni, ni miire okugingiriziwua kungulu, nyiza okureeta awantu woona ku inze.”

³³Yesu yawoola otio okulagana olumbe olwa yaazanga okufwa.

³⁴Omurima ogwa awantu ogwo gwamuirania gutino, “Kane ngatwamiire okuwurra ni kuema ku *ensikirra ezia Katonda mbwe *Kristo ariwaao omulamu amiire goona? Kandi katio iwue oreeta otie okuwoola mbwe, ‘Omuzia owa Omuntu paka agingiriziwue kungulu?’ Kusi ‘Omuzia owa Omuntu’ oyo naanu?”

³⁵Nikuemao Yesu yawalaga otino, “Muuza okuwa no owueru mala ku amiire amatono. Mugende-gende no owueru wukiario, ekierema ni kikiari okuamba ekialo kiwasanikire. Omuntu ogenda-genda mu ekierema ngamanyire aa agia.

³⁶Mute okuganya kwinyu ku owueru, ni mukiari nawuo. Okwo kuuza okugera muwe awazia awa owueru.” Ni Yesu yamala okuwoola amangʼana gano goona, yawaiwisako afuma awareka ao agia.

³⁷Kukawa mbwe Yesu yawanga na amiire okukola amankono amangi ino emberi waawu, ni ngawakawa no okuganya ku iye.

³⁸Kuno kwaikola kugere amangʼana aga Isaaya *omugambi owa Katonda yawoola gatuuke kuwuene, olwa yawoola mbwe: “Oo! Omwami Katonda, naanu omiire okuganya amangʼana aga tulanzia? Kusi naanu owa omiire okulaga amaani aga okukono kwao?”

³⁹Kutio ngawakaesanga okuwa no okuganya ku Yesu, mala kiomo Isaaya yawoola a-andi mbwe,

⁴⁰“Katonda amiire okuziwa amiiso gaawu, kandi amiire okugera emioyo giawu giwa emikalu ngʼa. Wusa-wusa, amiiso gaawu gaaza gawona kandi emioyo giawu giiza giaingizia amangʼana, mala wakagaluuke wagie ku Katonda awalamie.”
