Yowana 3:7-20

⁷Nnaimonje pabha njibheleketa kuti, nnapinjikwanga mmelekwanje gwabhili.

⁸Mbungo jinapuga niloya kujipinga, mpugo gwakwe gunapilikanika, ikabheje kukamanyika kuukoposhela wala kuukwenda. Nneyo peyo puili kuka mundu abhelekwa kwa Mbumu jwa a Nnungu.”

⁹A Nikodemo gubhaabhushiye, “Genega shigakomboleshe shanabhuli?”

¹⁰A Yeshu gubhaajangwile, “Mmwe mmaajiganya bha pa Ishilaeli, bhuli, nnagamanye genega?

¹¹Kweli ngunakummalanjila, uwe tunabheleketa itukwimanya nikong'ondela ituibhweni, ikabheje mmanganya nkaakundanga ntenga gwetu.

¹²Monaga nkaakulupalipanga indu ya pa shilambolyo inimmalanjilenje, shinkulupalilanje bhuli nimmalanjilangaga indu ya kunnungu?

¹³Jwakwa jojowe apite kunnungu, ikabhe nne Mwana juka Mundu ngopweshe kunnungu.

¹⁴“Malinga a Musha shibhannjinwile kunani nnuishi lijoka jwa alaywa na shabha kuanga kula, nneyo peyo inapinjikwa nne Mwana juka Mundu nyinulwe kunani,

¹⁵nkupinga jojowe shakulupalile akole gumi gwa pitipiti.”

¹⁶Pabha a Nnungu bhashinkwaapinganga bhandu pa shilambolyo, mpaka gubhampeleshe mwanagwabho jwa jika, nkupinga jojowe shankulupalile anaobhe, ikabhe akole gumi gwa pitipiti.

¹⁷Pabha a Nnungu bhangampeleka mwanagwabho kushilambolyo nkupinga aukumule bhandu, ikabhe kwabhatapulanje.

¹⁸“Akunkulupalila Mwana jwa a Nnungu akaukumulwa, ikabheje akakunkulupalila jwenejo aukumwilwe, pabha jwangankulupalila Mwana jwa jika jwa a Nnungu.

¹⁹Bhashiukumulwanga pabha, shilangaya shiishe pa shilambolyo, ikabheje bhandunji gubhapinjilenje lubhindu kupunda shilangaya, kwa ligongo lya itendi yabhonji yangali ya mmbone.

²⁰Mundu jojowe atenda yambi shinakunshima shilangaya, na akabhandishila ku shilangaya, pabha akaapinga itendi yakwe ya yambi imanyishe.
