João 19

23 Wamizi lowasindile kumuwamba Yesu, nawajihola mivalo ja heye, nawajigawa kuli vilundo vine, chila mwamizi chilundo chimwe. Nawalihola kahi ikanzu lyake, ikanzu alyo nalyali libotigwe kwa chihande chimwe hela kulawa kuchanya mbaka hanyi. 24 Lelo, awo wamizi nawalongasa, "Tuleche kulidega ila tulitowele simbi leka tulole lyowa lya whaani." Mbuli ayo naikoleka leka genele Maandiko Matakatifu galingulonga,

"Nawegawila mivalo ja heni,

na ikanzu lya heni nawalitowela simbi."

Ahyo ndo vyowaditile wala wamizi.

25 Habehi na msalaba wa Yesu nawali wemile Maliya yawele ndo mayake Yesu na lumbu wa mayake na Maliya mche wa Kileopa na Maliya Madelena. 26 Yesu loyamuwene mayake honhu hala hamwe na mlanguswa wa heye yamganile, nakamlonjela mayake, "Mamo! Ulole, ayo ndo mwanago." 27 Kahi nakamlonjela yula mlanguswa, "Ulole, ayo ndo mayako." Kulawila mhela awo yula mlanguswa nakamhola mayake Yesu leka yekale hakaye hake.
