11 Yesu kagendelela kulonga, "Kukala na munhu imoja yakalile na wana wabili. 12 Ija imdodo kamulongela tatake, ‘Tata, nigwelele uhazi wangu sambi.’ Avo munhu ija kawagolela uhazi wao wanage awo wabili. 13 Hazibitile siku nyingi, ija imdodo kachuuza uhazi wake. Abaho kafunga mwanza na sente ziyapatile, kachola isi ya kutali, ako kazinanga sente zose ziyapatile. 14 Kamambukiza kila kinhu kiyakalile nacho. Abaho lufilili lwa nzala lulawilila mwiisi ija, nayo kakala kaduhu kinhu chochose kisigale. 15 Avo kachola kusang’hana kibaluwa kwa munhu imoja wa isi ija, munhu ayo kamtuma mumgunda wake yasusile nguluwe. 16 Kakala kosulukila kuja maganda gawadile nguluwe, lakini kuduhu munhu yamgwelele kinhu chochose cha kuja. 17 Abaho kagelegeza na kulonga, ‘Tatangu kana wasang’hanaji wengi, woja mbaka wosigaza na niye hano nofa na nzala! 18 Nosegela na kuchola kwa tatangu na kumulongela, Tata, nimtenda Mulungu nzambi, na vivija nikutendela gweye nzambi. 19 Sifaya kukemigwa mwanago.

"Viyakalile yang’hali kutali, tatake kamona. Kamonela bazi mwanage, avo kamkimbilila, kamuhagatila na kamnonela. 21 Mwanage kamulongela, ‘Tata, nimtenda Mulungu nzambi, na vivija nikutendela gweye. Sifaya kukemigwa mwanago.’ 22 Lakini tatake kawakema wasang’hanaji zake. Kawalongela, ‘Lopoleni! Galeni kiwalo kinogile mumvaze. Mvazeni pete mkidole chake na vilatu mmagulu gake. 23 Abaho choleni mumgale bofu da ng’ombe dinonile mudichinje, wose tuje na kudeng’helela! 24 Kwavija mwanangu ino kakala yafile lakini sambi mgima. Kakala yapotele lakini sambi koneka.’ Avo wasonga kudeng’helela.
