Wakati aleba ikoku wakadanilila eti, "Unazebe dzewha, ngaawhe."

9 Badiyiwa bakati bawumbhuzwa kuti tjifananidzo itjetji tjobvani, 10 akati kubali, "Imwi makapiwa luzibo gwezwakasumbikika zwebumambo gweNdzimu; koga kubamwe ndoleba nezwifananidzo, kuyetila kuti nekene bebona basibone, nekene bewha basiwhisise."

11 "Tjifananidzo tjoleba whoku. Mbewu idama leNdzimu, 12 Yakawila muzila ndi ibabaya bakawha dama; Satane ekotjibuya ehha edusa dama mumimoyo yabo, kuti basitongo galamoyo bakatjidziwa. 13 Yakawila pana mahalabgwana ndi ibabaya banoti bawha dama bakaliwamutjila nekuhanha; koga abana midzi, bano galamoyo kwelubakanyana, mulubaka gwelikwa banowa. 14 Yakawila mumimhiwa, ndi ibabaya banowha dama, koga bekoti pakuyenda kwabo bekosilingiwa neda zwinhu, nefumwa, nezipa kwebutjilo, bekosaba nemitjelo yakakombola. 15 Koga yakawila mumavu akanaka ndi ibabaya banoti bawha dama bakalilondolodza mumoyo wakanaka unalebeswa, bekotjiba nemitjelo ina moyonlefu."

16 "Akuna nhu unobesedzela tjivoneko ekotjifumika netundu. Kene ekosa tjivoneko kusi kwembheta, koga unotjisa patjigadziko patjena eyetila kuti unongina mun'umba angine kuna tjedza.

17 "Akuna tjakasumbikala tjisingawhoba patjena, kene tjakasumbikala tjisingowhozibgwa tjikaba patjedza.

18 "Mutjenjelele kuti mowha tjini; ngobe unako unowhopiwa kunjinji, koga usina unowhotolegwa nayikoko kwaanokumbula kuti unako."

19 Kwakakobuya meyabe nebanun'una babe, koga bakakon'wa swika kuwunli ngentha yebunji gwebanhu. 20 Wakabudziwa kuyi, "Meyabo nebanun'una babo bakuhhe banohaka kubona."

21 Koga wakahandula eti, "Mme bangu nebanun'una bangu ndi ibaba banowha dama leNdzimu bekolithama."

22 Limwe hhuba wakangina mukepe nebadiyiwa babe akati kubali, "Ayitjulukileni seli yeya yegungwa." Bakatangisa yendesa kepe, 23 batjimugwendo iye wakabhakhwa newhope akayezela, kukabuya dutu mukati kwegungwa, kepe tjakatjehhala vula, beba mumboli. 24 Bakayenda bakanowumusa, bedanilila beti, "He, He, tapalala!"

Ipapo wakamuka akatjemela mhepo, nemiduka kwevula. Kose kwakama kukabe nekunyalala. 25 Akakoti kubali, "Galamoyo kwenyu kuponi?"

Ibo behla bakatjenama bakati umwe kuwumwe, "Ndiyani ngono iwhoyu, unotjemela mhepo kene gungwa kukawuwhilila?"

26 Bakaswika kuhango yebaGerasini, yaka ili seli kweGalile. 27 Ebhuda etshamba pasi, wakahanganidziwa nenlume waka ebva munzi-nkulu waka aligegwe nemeyambi; kwatjiba lubaka asingambale zwiyambalo, kakale asingagale mun'umba koga egala mumakuwhu aka ali zwikumbu. 28 Paakabona Yesu wakamimila akawila pasi mbeli kukwe, newhi lipehhugwi eti, "Muneni nami, imwi Yesu, Nkololo weNdzimu Upehhugwihhugwi? Ndomukumbila musindidziyidze." 29 Ngobe waka alaya meyambi kuti ibhude munlume iwhoyo. (Ngobe lubaka gunjinji yaka iwundziyidza; baka begala bakawunsunga nemiketane nemitjili koga ethubula kose kwakawunsunga, kakale meyambi yaka iwuntakulila kutjilambanyika.) 30 Yesu wakawumbhuzwa eti, "Zina lilo loyi yani?"

Iye wakati, "Ligiyoni," nentha yekuti meyambi njinji dzakadzangina muwunli. 31 Dzakawunkumbila kuti asidzitatile kugomba lisina bupelo.

32 Kwaka kuna ngubi yengulube dzaka dzifula muwhunde yedombo; dzikawunkumbilisisa kuti adziletjedze dzingine zwadzo mungulube, ndizo akadzibvumila. 33 Meyambi dzakakotjibhuda munlume iwhoyo dzikanongina mungulube, ngulube dzakavondomoka dzikatihha dzijitila nepakakungulukila dzikanowila mugungwa dzikafa.

34 Balisi bakati bebona tjayetika bakatihha bakanoleba munzi-nkulu nemuhangwanyana yose. 35 Banhu bakayenda kuti banobona tjakatjayetika, bakaswika kuna Yesu, bakawana nlume waka adusiwa meyambi aligele mbeli kwaYesu, akambala nenkumbulo uwe wakatambunuka; bakahla. 36 Bakabakubona bakababudza kuti nlume waka aligegwe nemeyambi watjidziwa tjini. 37 Ipapo bose banhu bentunhu webaGerasini bakawunkumbila kuti abve pabali; ngobe bakabhakhwa nehla kukulu; ndizo wakangina mukepe akabgwilila hule. 38 Nlume waka adusiwa meyambi, wakawunkumbila kuti ayende bo naye.

Koga Yesu wakawundzibisa, eti, 39 "Bgwilila kanyi kuko unobalakidza bukulu gwezwinhu zwawayetigwa neNdzimu."

Wakayenda, eleba munzi-nkulu wose bukulu gwezwinhu zwaayekatigwa naYesu.

40 Kwakayetika kuti Yesu ahanduka, banhu bakawuwamutjila nehana kukulu ngobe bose baka bakawumilila. 41 Kwakabuya nlume waka eyi Jayirosi waka ali ntungamili wesinagogu; akawila pamakumbo aYesu akawunkumbilisisa kuti ayende naye kun'umba iye, 42 waka ana nkololokadzi un'ompela, unamakole angaba gumi nemabili, waka egwalilofa.

Wakati oyenda banhu bakawunsundanyidza. 43 Kukati nkadzimayi waka anabugwele gwebhihha malopa kwemakole ali gumi nemabili, kusina nlapi unotubula wunlapa, 44 akabuya hule kukwe, akabhata mpeto wetjiyambalo tjitje; tjinyolotjo bhuda malopa kukama. 45 Yesu wakati, "Ndiyani wandibhata?"

Banhu bose bakalandula, Phethiro nebamwe bakabelipo bakati, "He, mbunga unomuzwiya umusundanyidza imwi mukoti ndiyani wandibhata!"

46 Yesu wakati, "Kunanhu wandibhata ngobe ndawha kuti masimba abhuda mundili." 47 Nkadzimayi ebona kuti haangazwisumbike, wakasedzela etetema, akawila mbeli kukwe akaleba mbeli kukwe nebanhu bose kuti wawumbhatilani, kakale kuti tjinyolotjo wabva apola. 48 Yesu wakati kuwunli, "Nkololokadzi, galamoyo kuko kwathama ukanaya; yenda nekunyalala."

49 Etjalebeleka kwakaswika umwe nlume ebva kun'umba yentungamili wesinagogu, akati, "Nkololokadzi wenyu watjinyika; musitjadziyidze Ndhiyi."

50 Koga Yesu wakati akuwha akawun'handula eti, "Usihle; galamoyo koga, iye unowhonaya."

51 Wakati aswika kun'umba akadzibisa nhu wose ngina mun'umba, kuhhe kwaPhethiro naJakobe naJohane, natatayi namayi bemwana. 52 Banhu bose baka bekuwa belilila mwana; koga wakati, "Musilile; haazofa koga ulele."

53 Koga bakawunseka bulengwe beziba kuti wafa. 54 Wakabhata nsikana neluboko akadanilila, eti, "Mwana, muka." 55 Meya iye ikahanduka, tjinyolotjo akamuka; akabalaya kuti bawumpe zodliwa adle. 56 Bazwadzi babe bakatjenama kwazo; iye akabakowhomesedza kuti basibudze nhu tjayetika.
