1Kundandubhoko, ashinkupagwa Lilobhe, Lilobhejo paaliji pamo na a Nnungu, shibhaliji a Nnungu na jwalakwe Lilobhe paaliji nneyo peyo.
2Lilobheju paaliji pamo na a Nnungu kuuumila kundandubho.
3Indu yowe puipengenywe kupitila Jwenejo, shakwa shindu shipengenywe gwangali jwenejo.
4Jwenejo shiumilo sha gumi na pugwaliji shilangaya kubhandu.
5Shilangayasho shinalangaya pa lubhindu, wala lubhindu lwangakombola kuima shilangaya.
6Gwakoposhele mundu jumo atumilwe na a Nnungu, lina lyakwe a Yowana,
7jwenejo ashinkuika kukong'ondela ga shilangayasho. Nkupinga kwa ntenga gwakwe bhandu bhowe bhakulupalilanje.
8A Yowana bhayene nngabha shene shilangayasho, ikabhe bhashinkuika kukong'ondela ga jwene aliji shilangayasho.
9Jweneju ni shilangaya shiyene akwiya pa shilambolyo, kukwamulishilanga bhandu bhowe.
10Shilangayajo paaliji pashilambolyo, kupitila jwenejo shilambolyo gushipengenywe, ikabheje bhandu bha pa shilambolyo bhangammanyanga.

15A Yowana bhabhatisha bhayene gubhaabhalanjilenje bhandu kwa lilobhe lya utiya bhalinkuti, “Jweneju junantayaga kuti, ‘Akwiya nnyuma jangu jwankulungwa kumbunda nne, pabha aapali nne nganabhe pagwa.’ ”
16Kwa ligongo lya punda nema jabho, uwe tubhowe tupatile mboka ja punda.
17Pabha Shalia pujiishe kupitila a Musha, nema na kweli puiishe kupitila a Yeshu Kilishitu.
18Jwakwa mundu jojowe abhabhweni a Nnungu, ikabhe Mwana jwa jikape jwa a Nnungu, ali pamo na Atati, jwenejo atulangwiye shibhali a Nnungu.
19Gweguno ni ukong'ondelo gwa a Yowana ku bhakulungwanji bha Bhayaudi bha ku Yelushalemu, pubhaatumilenje bhakulungwanji bha bhishila na Bhalawi, bhakaabhuyanje a Yowana, “Mmwe agani?”
20A Yowana bhangakana kwaajangulanga, gubhaabhalanjilenje gwangali nng'iyo, “Nne nngabha a Kilishitu.”
21Penepo gubhaabhushiyenje, “Bhai, Mmwe agani? Bhuli, mmwe a Eliya?” A Yowana gubhajangwile, “Nng'oope, nne nngabha bhene.” Gubhabhushiyenje, “Mmwe ankulondola bha a Nnungu bhala?” A Yowana gubhaajangwilenje, “Nng'oope.”
22Bhalabhonji gubhaabhushiyenje, “Bhai, mmwe agani? Nkwitaya bhuli mmayene? Ntubhalanjile, nkupinga tukaabhalanjilanje bhatutumilenje kukummuya bhala.”
23A Yowana gubhaajangwilenje, malinga ankulondola bha a Nnungu a Ishaya shibhalugwile. “Nne ni lilobhe lika mundu lipilikanika kuanga. Mwaalashiyanje Bhakulungwa mpanda gwabho, ‘Nngoloyanje mushibhapite.’ ”
24Bhene bhandunji bhatumilwenje na Mapalishayo bhala,
25gubhaabhushiyenje a Yowana, “Monaga mmwe nngabha a Kilishitu na nngabha a Eliya na wala nngabha ankulondola bha a Nnungu bhala, pakuti nnabhatisha?”
26A Yowana gubhaajangwilenje, “Nne ngunabhatisha kwa mashi, ikabheje bhapali bhamo munkumbi gwenunji bhunkanabhe kwaamanyanga.
27Bhene bhunalugwile bhanakwiya nnyuma jangu, nne nangatopela kubha ntumishi jwabho nkali jwa gopola mbundo ya ilatu yabho.”
28Genego kugatendeshe ku Bhetania, kung'ambo lushi lwa Yolodani kubhabhatishaga a Yowana.
29Malabhi gakwe, a Yowana gubhaabhweni a Yeshu bhalinkwajiila, gubhashite, “Nnole, bhenebha Mwana Ngondolo jwa a Nnungu, bhaajigala yambi ya bhandu bha pashilambolyo!
30Bhenebha bhunakungulushilaga nilinkuti, ‘Nnyuma jangu bhanakwiya bhandu bhamo bhali bhakulungwa kumbunda nne, pabha bhaapali nne nganabhe pagwa!’
31Nne namwene ngaamanyiji, ikabheje njikwiya bhatisha kwa mashi nkupinga bhandu bha Ishilaeli bhaamanyanje.”
32A Yowana gubhakong'ondele bhalinkuti, “Nashinkumona Mbumu jwa a Nnungu alituluka mbuti nnjubha, kukoposhela kunnungu nikwaatula.
33Nne nganaamanye, ikabheje bhene bhandumile kubhatisha kwa mashi bhala bhanugulile, ‘Mundu jushimummone alikuntula Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo, jwenejo shaabhatishe kwa Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo.’
34Nne nigabhweni na ngunakong'ondela kuti bhenebha Bhanabhabho a Nnugu.”
35Malabhi gakwe, a Yowana pubhaaliji na bhaajiganywa bhabho bhabhili.
36Bhakaabhoneje a Yeshu bhalipita, gubhashite, “Nnolanje! Mwana Ngondolo jwa a Nnungu.”
37Bhaajiganywa bhabhili bha a Yowana bhala, bhakapilikananjeje gene malobhego, gubhaakagwilenje a Yeshu.
38Bhai, a Yeshu gubhatendebhwishe gubhaabhweninji bhaajiganywa bha a Yowana bhalikwakagulanga, gubhaabhushiyenje, “Nkuloleyanga nndi?” Bhalabhonji gubhaajangwilenje, “Alabhi, kunkutama kwei?” A Labhi, malombolelo gakwe Bhaajiganya.
39A Yeshu gubhabhaalanjilenje, “Nnjiyangananje shimpabhonanje.” Bhaajiganywa bhala gubhaakagwilenje gubhapabhweninji pubhatamaga, puyaliji shaa kumi ja ligulo na gubhatemi nabhonji lyene lyubhalyo.
40Jumo jwa bhene bhaajiganywa bhabhili bhaapilikenenje a Yowana bhalibheleketa nikwakagula a Yeshu, pubhashemwaga a Ndeleya, apwabho a Shimoni Petili.
41A Ndeleya gubhatandwibhe kwaaloleya akulu bhabho a Shimoni, gubhaalugulile, “Twaabhweni a Mashiya” malombolelo gakwe a Kilishitu Bhaatapula.
42Kungai gubhaapeleshe kwa a Yeshu. Na bhalabho a Yeshu gubhaalolile nigubhashite, “Mmwe a Shimoni bhana bhabho a Yowana. Nnaino shinshemwe a Kepa.” Malombolelo gakwe Petili, yani, “Liganga.”
43Malabhi gakwe a Yeshu gubhapinjile kwenda ku Galilaya. Bhai, gubhaabhweni a Pilipi gubhaabhalanjile, “Nngagule.”
44A Pilipi pubhaliji bhandu bha ku Bhetishaida shilambo shibhatamaga a Ndeleya na a Petili.
45A Pilipi bhakaabhoneje a Natanaeli nigubhaabhalanjile, “Twaabhweni bhene bhajandikwe muitabhu ya shalia ya a Musha na ya ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu, a Yeshu bhana bhabho a Yoshepu bha ku Nashaleti.”
46A Natanaeli gubhaabhushiye a Pilipi, “Bhuli, inakomboleka shindu shoshowe sha mmbone kukopoka ku Nashaleti?” A Pilipi gubhaabhalanjile, “Nnjiye kunnole.”
47A Yeshu bhakaabhoneje a Natanaeli bhalikwajiila, gubhashite, “Nnolanje, bhenebha Bhaishilaeli bha kweli, bhangali ya nyata muntima gwabho.”
48A Natanaeli gubhaabhushiye, “Mmwe pummanyi nne shanabhuli?” A Yeshu gubhajangwile, “Nammweni nni paina nkongo pala, nkali nkanabhe shemwa na a Pilipi.”
49Penepo a Natanaeli gubhaalugulile, “Mmajiganya, mmwe Bhanabhabho a Nnungu. Mmwe a Mpalume bha Ishilaeli!”
50A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile, “Bhuli, nnakulupalila pabha njikummalanjila kuti namweni nni paina nkongo pala? Shinngabhone gamakulungwa kupunda genega.”
51A Yeshu gubhapundile kubheleketa, “Kweli kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, shinkubhonanje kunnungu kuliuguka na ashimalaika bha a Nnungu bhalikwelanga na tuluka kwangu nne Mwana juka Mundu.”
