1 Pena kandai tangu hilebhe yoha yangahalakikwa, Lilobhe bhakibha, na jonojwe Lilobhe akibha pamo na Annoongo, na bhena bhakibha Annoongo. 2 Nabhena Lilobhe akibha pamo na Annoongo kubhokela kandai. 3 Kupetela jonojwe hilebhe yoha hikaahalakikwa, kupetela jonojwe Annoongo hakaalakia hilebhe yoa. Chakwa chilebhe chohachela changaahalakilwa pangali bhenabho. 4 Nkati jabhe mukibha na umomi na umomi gonogwe gukibha nhana gwa bhandu. 5 Nhana gonogwe kung'anyima palubhendu, na lono lubhendu gwangakoombola kuguhima gono nhana.

6 Kukibha na mundu jumo jwaakatumwa kubhoka kwa Annoongo, lina lyabhe Ayohana. 7 Jonojwe akahika kwaalobholelanga bhandu ngani ja jono nhana. Bhakahika ili kupetela jonojwe bhandu bhoha bhajoange na kuhobhalela. 8 Ayohana jwangabhee jono nhana, ila akahika kwalobholelanga bhandu ngani ja nhana. 9 Jonojwe nga nhana gwa kweli, nhana guguhika pachilambo, na kwamulikilanga bhandu bhoa. 10 Bahi, Lilobhe lyakibha pachilambo, na hilebhe yoha hikalakikwa kupetela jonojwe, nambo bhandu bha pachilambo bhangaamanya. 11 Bhakahika kwa bhandu bhabhe, nambo bhandu bhabhe bhene bhangampokelanga. 12 Nambo bhenibhala bhabhakaapokela na kwahobhalela, akaapekeanga uwecho gwa kutendeka bhana bha Annoongo, 13 bhenabho bhangatendeka bhana bha Annoongo kwa kubhelekwa na akaabhelehi, wala kwa kupala bhandu, ila kwa kupala kwabhe Annoongo mwene. 14 Na bhena Lilobhe akatendeka mmele, akatama pamo na twenga. Na twenga tugubhweni nng'anyimo gwabhe, na nng'anyimo handa gwa Mwana jwa jika jwaakahika kubhoka kwa Atati, jwaatwelile wema gwa Annoongo na kweli.

15 Ayohana bhakaalobholelanga bhandu ngani jabhe, atendita kweha lilobhe, "Ojojo nga jonijola junakannobholelanga kubhee, ‘Jwahika kuyeto jangu nga akolongwa kupunda nenga, kwakubhee akibha tangu nenga nangabhee.’" 16 Kwa kutongamanika kwabhe twenga twabhoa tupookile wema gwa Annoongo kwa kujimbika muno. 17 Kwakubhee Malagilo gakahika kwa kupetela ndela ja Amusa, nambo wema gwa Annoongo na kweli jiletitwe kupetela Ayesu Kilisito. 18 Jwakwa mundu jwammonite Annoongo. Nambo nga Amwana jikajakwe, jwaatekubhandila kwa Annoongo jonojwe nga jwaatekwatenda Annoongo bhamanyikane.

19 Jenjeni nga ngani ja Ayohana jibhakajilongela muuda akaakolo bha Bhayahudi konikola ku Yelusalemu pabhakatumanga akaakung'i na Bhalawi bhajaulange kwa Ayohana kwaakonya, "Mwenga nga aganiki?"

20 Ayohana bhangakana kwajangulanga, nambo akaalobholelanga, "Nenga ngabha Akilisito Mwakochi."

21 Bhakankonyanga, "Kwa henela, mwenga nga aganiki? Bholi, mwenga nga Aelia?"

Ayohana akajaangula, "Ngabha nenga."

Bhakaakonya kabhele, "Mwenga nga bhenibhala alondohi bha Annoongo bhabhakalobholekwa jwaapakuhika?"

Ayohana akajaangula, "Ngabha nenga."

22 Ngapena bhakaakonya, "Ngocheni mwenga nga aganiki, ntulobholele na twenga tujaule kwalobholelanga bhabhatutumite. Bholi na mwenga nchikemabholi?" 23 Ayohana akaajangulanga kwa malobhe ga alondohi Aisaya,

Abhikulobhola, "Nenga nga jonijola alondohi bha Annoongo Aisaya jwaakalongela palulemba.

Nnyululange ndela jibhapetela Hangwana."

24 Bhenibhala bhandu bhabhakatumwanga na Mafalisayo, 25 Penapo bhakaakonya Ayohana, "Handa mwenga ngabha Akilisito, wala Aelia, wala bhenibhala alondohi bha Annoongo kwaniki ntenda kubaticha bhandu?" 26 Ayohana akaajangulanga, "Nenga ndendakubaticha kwa machi, nambo abhile jumo jwajemite pakati jinunji yakubhee mwangammanya, 27 Jonojwe jwaatendakuhika kuyeto jangu nenga, nambo nenga ngapaalikwa hata kwaajogola migoji ya champali yabhe."

28 Hikubho heyo hikatendeka konokwe ku Betania, kuntundu ja loochi Yolodani konokwe nga kubhatendita kubaticha Ayohana.

29 Malabhi jakwe Ayohana akaabhona Ayesu abhikunhikila, akalobhola, "Hojo nga Mwana ngondolo jwa Annoongo jwaatola mabohu goa ga bhandu pachilambo! 30 Hojo nga jonijola junakankongolelanga ngani jabhe kubhee, ‘Apakuhika mundu kuyeto jangu na nga akolo kupunda nenga kwakubhee akibha mmi tangu jangu nenga.’ 31 Nenga na mwene nangammanya, nambo ndekuhika kubaticha bhandu kwa machi ili kwatenda bhandu bha chilambo cha ku Isilaeli bhapatange kunhelewa."

32 Ayohana akalongela namuna chibhakaamanya Ayesu, abhikulongela, "Nakaabhona Mboomo jwa Annoongo abhikutuluka handa ngunda kubhoka kunani kwa Annoongo na kutama nnani jakwe. 33 Nenga nangaamanya, nambo jonijola jwaandumite kubaticha bhandu kwa machi atekunobholela, ‘Mundu jonijola jumpakummona Mboomo abhikwatulukia kubhoka kunani kwa Annoongo na kutama nnani jakwe, jonojwe nga jwaabaticha kwa Mboomo ja Annoongo.’ 34 Nenga na mwene ndekulola chikubho hecho na ndendakuchibiticha kubhee hojo nga Mwana jwa Annoongo."

35 Lichobha lilikahika, Ayohana akajema palapala kabhele pamo na bhenibhala bhabhaajigana bhabhe bhabhele. 36 Pabhakaabhona Ayesu atendakupeta, akalobhola, "Nnole! Hojo nga Mwanangondolo jwa Annoongo." 37 Bhenibhala bhabhachijigana bhabhele pabhakaajoa Ayohana abhikulongela malobhe genago, bhakankagula Ayesu. 38 Ayesu akatendebhuka, akaabhona bhenibhala bhabhachijigana bhatendakunkagula, akaakonyanga, "Nnoleanga chiniki?" Na bhenaangota bhakajangulanga, "Alabi ntama koji?" Alabi maana jakwe bhabhajigana. 39 Ayesu akaajangulanga, "Nhikange nnolange." Bhenibhala bhabhachijigana bhakankagula, bhakapabhona pabhatendita kutama, bhakatama nabho lichobha helyo kwa kubhee pabhakaabhandikianga ikibha handa chaa komi kimuho.

40 Aandulea, jwaakibha anung'una jwabhe Asimoni Apetulo, akibha jumo jwa bhena bhabhele bhabhakaajoa Ayohana abhikulongela, na bhabhankagula Ayesu. 41 Palapala Aandulea akaalolea anung'una bhabhe Asimoni na kwalobholela, "Twaabhweni Amasiha." Amasiha maana jwakwe jwaagulikwe na Annoongo. 42 Ngapena Aandulea akaapeleka Asimoni kwa Ayesu.

Ayesu pabhakaalola Asimoni akaalobholela, "Mwenga nga Asimoni mwana jwa Ayohana. Nangocheni mpakemwa Akefa." Akefa kwa chigiliki nga Apetulo na Apetulo maana jakwe nga "Luhala."

43 Malabhi jakwe Ayesu akaamuha kujaula ku Galilaya. Konokwe akaakolela Afilipo, akaalobholela, "Ngagule." 44 Afilipo na annung'una jwabhe Apetulo bhakibhanga bhandu bha kuchilambo cha Betisaida. 45 Afilipo akaakolela Anatanaeli na kwaalobholela, "Tunkolile Ayesu bha ku Nazaleti, mwana jwa Ayosefu jonijola Amusa jwaakajandika ngani yabhe mu chitabu cha Malagilo, na yakubhee akaalondohi bha Annoongo bhakajandika ngani yabhe." 46 Anatanaeli akaakonya Afilipo, "Bholi, chilebhe chammbone chikombola kubhoka ku Nazaleti?"

Afilipo akaajangula, "Nhike nnole." 47 Penipala Ayesu pabhakabhona Anatanaeli atendakwahikila, akalobhola, "Nnolange! Hojo nga Aisilaeli mwene, nkati jabhe jwanga unami." 48 Anatanaeli akaakonya, "Henela nkombwilebholi, kumanya nenga?" Ayesu akaajangula, "Tangu Afilipo bhangankema pankibha pahi ja nkongo gwa ntini, nenga nakammanya." 49 Penapo Anatanaeli akaalobholela, "Bhannyigana, mwenga nga Mwana jwa Annoongo. Mwenga nga Amwenye bha chilambo cha ku Isilaeli!" 50 Ayesu akaalobholelanga, "Bholi, nhobhalile kwakubhee ndekunnobholela pankibha pahi ja ntini? Mpakulola makolongwa muno kupunda gangani." 51 Ayesu akaalobholelanga, "Ndendakunnobholelanga kweli, mpakulolanga kunani kwa Annoongo kubhikujogoka na akaatumichi bha kunani bha Annoongo bhabhikukwelanga na kutuluka ligongo lya Mwana jwa Mundu."
