Yowana 1:14-25

¹⁴Lilobhe gwatendeshe kubha mundu nigwatemi kunngwetu. Na uwe gutuubhweni ukonjelo gwakwe, ukonjelo guka Mwana jwa jika akoposhela kwa Atati, agumbele nema na kweli.

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?”
