1 Abafalise na Basaduke bambi baishile kuli Yesu mu kumwesha. Balimwebele ati akitepo ikishibilo kimo ikyakufuma kwiulu. 2 Nomba Yesu alibasukile ati, "Ulo akasuba kali mukuwa, mulebati ‘Umwela ukoba bwino apo iulu lilikashikile.’ 3 Na pa makya mulasosa ati, ‘Imfula ikoloka apo kyafutika ne ulu lyakashika no kutiinya.’ Mulishibile ukwilula pa fyo iulu likoboneka, nomba tamwilula no kwishiba shino nshita. 4 Abantu bankulo ino babubi kabili tabeshibile Lesa. Bakofwaya ikishibilo nomba tabaka kibone kano fye kishibilo kyakwa Yona." Epakubasha aya.

Tamwibwishe ulo na pesawile imikate isano pa bantu amakana yasano?

15 Naye Yesu epakubepusha ati, "Nga mwebo mwebati ni nebo nani?"

16 Elo Simoni Petelo alimwasukile ati, "Ni webo Klistu, Umwana wakwa Lesa wa mweo."

17 Yesu alimwasukile ati, "Ulishukile Simoni mwana Yona! Apo iki kishinka tekyakufuma ku buntunse, kyakufuma fye kuli Tata wa mwiulu. 18 Ekyo na kwebati, ni webo Petelo, kabili pa kilibwe ki epo nkakulila ulukuta lwangi, na maka yamfwa* tayali na kulwansha. 19 Nkakupeela ne mfungulo sha Bufumu bwa mwiulu, pakwebati kyonse ukabinda pesonde, kikesa kubindwa mwiulu, nekyo ukasuminisha pesonde ninshi na kwiulu kika suminishiwa."

22 Petelo alisendele Yesu pa mbali atampa ukumukalipila ati, "Tefyo Shikulu, teti kibe fyo!" 23 Yesu epa kupilibukila kuli Petelo no kumweba ati, "Fumapa Satana! Ulikipunwisho munshila yangi, apo amatontonkanyo yobe teyakufuma kuli Lesa, ya buntunse fye."

24 Yesu alyebele abasambi bakwe ati, "Onse uukofwaya ukunkonka naikanye, asende no lupanda lwakwe elo ankonke. 25 Pantu onse uufwaya ukupususha umweo wakwe akaulofya, nomba uwalufya umweo wakwe pali nebo akaunonka. 26 Bushe umuntu kuti kyamwafwa indo umfwa anonka ifya pesonde fyonse, elo nomba alofya umweo wakwe? Nangula pengabapo kintu angapeela pa kukabushamo mweo wakwe? 27 Umwana wa Muntu ali pepi pepi no kwisa mu bukindami bwakwa wishi na bamalaika bakwe mukulambula onse ukulingana nefyo abombele. 28 Nkomyeba ikyakine, bambi pali mwebo tabali na kufwa mpaka bakabone Umwana wa Muntu akoisa mu Bufumu bwakwe."
