Dia das crianças
As crianças são preciosas aos olhos de Deus. Jesus as acolheu, abençoou e ensinou que delas é o Reino dos Céus — modelos de fé, pureza e humildade.
Jesus e as crianças
Deixai vir a mim as crianças. Jesus abraçou, abençoou e honrou as crianças como modelo de fé para os adultos.
Koga Yesu wakati, "Letjani bana bahhe kundili, musibadzibise; ngobe bumambo gwekudzimu ndegwebakajali."
Ndiyani Nkulu Pabamwe?
Lubaka igogo badiyiwa bakahha kuna Yesu bakati, "Ndiyani ungayi ndiye nkulu mubumambo gwekudzimu?"
Yesu wakadana mwana ntjetjana, akawunsa pakati kwabo, eba eti, "Lebeswa ndoti kumuli, kuhhe kwekuti mungaba sebana batjetjana, amungafe mangina mubumambo gwekudzimu. Kene yani unozwitebamisa semwana ntjetjana iwhoyu, iwhoyo ndiye nkulu mubumambo gwekudzimu.
Tjifananidzo Tjemhwizi Yakalahika
"Mube nemalebeswa kuti amutolingila pasi umwe webatjetjana ibaba; ngobe ndomubudza kuti kudzimu batumwa babo banogala balimbeli kwaTate bangu bakudzimu."
Koga baphirisiti bakulu nebakwali bakati bebona zwinhu zwinotjenamisa zwaaka ethama, nebana bemimila muthempeli, beti, "Whosana kuNkololo waDavida!" bakahhala buhongola; bakati kuwunli, "Nowha tjabanoleba?"
Yesu wakati kubali, "Ndowha; kati amuzotongobala lukwalo panoti, ‘Mumilomo yebana neyengawana kowhobhuda lumbidza kwakapelela’?"
Lebeswa ndoti kumuli, kene yani usingowhowamutjila bumambo gweNdzimu semwana ntjetjana atowhogungina." Wakabaguga, akabakombolela ebabiga maboko.
Wakatola mwana ntukununu akawumisa pakati kwabo; akati awumilidza mumaboko awe, akati kubali, "Kene yani unowamutjila mwana unonga iwhoyu muzina langu unowamutjila imi; kakale kene yani unondiwamutjila, haatowamutjila imi koga unowamutjila iye wakandituma."
