Luka 19

Zakayo umutozakori yihana

1 Nuko Yesu yinjira mu gisagara ca Yeriko, ahaca arengana. 2 Muri ico gisagara hari umuntu yitwa Zakayo, yari umutozakori mukuru, kandi yari atunze cane. 3 Yashaka kubona Yesu, ariko ntivyakunda kuko hari isinzi ry’abantu, na we akaba ari mugufi. 4 Nuko ariruka yurira igiti c’umusukomora cari i ruhande y’inzira, kuko ari ho Yesu yagira ace.

5 Yesu ahashitse, ararangamiza, amubwira ati: "Zakayo, ururuka ningoga, kuko uwu musi nyene nkwiye kurara iwawe." 6 Nuko aca arururuka ningoga, amwakira iwe yuzuye umunezero.

7 Ababibonye bose batangura kwidodomba bati: "Agiye kurara mu nzu y’umunyavyaha!"

8 Ariko Zakayo arahaguruka, abarira Umwami Yesu ati: "Mwami, ngira mfate ica kabiri c’ivyo ntunze ndakigaburire aboro, kandi nimba hari uwo nivye, ndabimuriha incuro zine."

9 Yesu aca avuga ati: "Uwu musi agakiza kinjiye muri iyi nzu, kuko uwu na we ni umwana wa Aburahamu. 10 Umwana w’Umuntu yazanywe no kurondera hamwe no gukiza abazimiye."
