1 Yeyo ikatema iyo, nkayaawa attu akina ni umwiirelha Yesu mwaha wa attu o Ugalilaya yeevakachiye ni Napilato ni iphome aya nkayaathakanihiya ni isadaka yaakumihiya wa Nlhuku. 2 Yesu nkaakhulha, "Chani nnaanyihera wiira yayo attu ayo aari o uwonya waapwaha Agalilaya akina, wo wowo uttwaruwa uwo? 3 Mena! Ni mii kinouhimeriani wiira, mwaahikhoromeke ni uhiya uwonya winyu, nnookhwacha onkhaye thoko chinre aya. 4 Ama attu khumi ni nane yaawulhuwelhiye ishanja Usiloamu ulhe nkayaakhwa, yaari attu o uwonya waapwaha attu yaakhalha Uyerusalemu? 5 Mena!

6 Paahi Yesu nkaahimeria nna nlhikaaniho nna, "Ahaawo ntu mmoka aalhilhe mwiri wo ntini umatani waanlhe awe izabibu. Nkaawa uuwehani kila iyaakha oone wiira uhemma athomolhe, nansho wo uhiphwanya ittu. 7 Nkaamwiirelha ntu aashunga imata uyo, ‘Nkoonani! Iyaakha ttaaru chonkhaye chi kihowa va wo uhiphwanya ittu ata mena. Vano etu nkakheke mwiri uyo! Weeshiyani uthepa ulhia ittaya wo uhikhalha maana?’ 8 Nansho ntu aalhita imata uyo nkaakhulha, ‘Nkahiyani pwiiya, ukhalhe iyaakha imoka ilha, kinookhureria ni uhelha ichaayira. 9 Mwaahiino wemmaka aye, waahimmeke, vavawo etu mmweeke mwaakakha.’ "

10 Nihuku no Wiittuwa nimoka Yesu aari eettuchihaka wi inupa yo unlhapelha Nlhuku. 11 Vavawo ahokhalha oopani amoka awereiya mashoka o unanara iyaakha choomalhaka khumi ni nane, iruttu aya yaari inaremanre ahookokwaka. 12 Yesu vonne awe, nkeehana ni weerelha, "Amma, nholhamihiya ikwerere inyu." 13 Nkeeshera moono awe, ni yeyo ikatema, iruttu aya nkayookwaa tho, nkayanthimicha Nlhuku.

14 Nansho olhupalhe emelhelha inupa yo unlhapelha Nlhuku ahorushiya chinene woona wiira Yesu honlhamiha ntu Nihuku no Wiittuwa. Paahi etu, nkayeerelha attu, "Arii mahuku sita o upanga ntheko, mmweeke yayo mahuku ayo mmwe mwaalhamihiya, nansho kuhiwe Nihuku no Wiittuwa!"

15 Athithi nkayaakhulha, "Mwa anafiki inyu! Mpani mmoka inyu hinonthaphulha mwannama awe ama iphuta awe nhiilhini wiira awurihe maashi Nihuku no Wiittuwa? 16 Vano etu, vaa haawo ulha mwaana a Aburahimu aremarihiye ni Nakare iyaakha khumi ni nane ulha. Chani khireenre wiira athaphulhiye Nihuku no Wiittuwa?" 17 Paahi nlhove naakhunlhe awe, nkanoolhiha muru attu anvenga ayo, nansho attu akina onkhaye aari anateelhiye mirima wo woona chittu cho nthimicho chaapangelhe.

18 Yesu nkaakoha, "Imwene ya Nlhuku inolhikaanani? Kilhikaaniheke ni ishiyani? 19 Inolhikaana thoko choo. Ntu aawelhe imbeyu ikaani chinene yo iharadali nkaalha umatani wawe. Nnyepu nkawonnuwa ukhalha mwiri mulhupalhe, ashinuni o uchulhu wiirimu nkayaathekacha iphuuru chaya mmarittani mwaya mmo."

20 Yesu nkaakoha tho, "Kilhikaanihekeni ni Imwene ya Nlhuku? 21 Thoko, opani amoka aawelhe ihengedure nkoothuwaniha iphepa madebe melhi ni ntikha nkayaarurummwa."

22 Yesu nkaarwa miholho nkwaha awe wo Uyerusalemu aviraka mmawani ni nttokoni mwonkhaye, eettuchihaka attu. 23 Ntu mmoka nkankoha eeraka, "Thithi, chani attu vakani phi nohalha ulhama?"

Yesu nkaakhulha, 24 "Mwiikayeke uvira nlhako wo uyevayeva, ukhalhawaya attu enchi anoolhikacha uvira nansho ahooriaka. 25 Anoowa mahuku anene inupa vanohalha aya uttia nkhora, ni inyu mwaatti mweemelhaka vathe mwiihanaka mwiiraka, ‘Pwiiya, nnihulhelhe.’ Nansho yayo anowa uwaakhulhani, ‘Akuuchuwenlheni mwaattiva!’ 26 Ni inyu nnoowa mwaakhulha, ‘Hii phi alhe naalhia ni uwuria vamoka ni inyu, nkamweenittuchiha uwanihu!’ 27 Ayo anowa wiira vavawo tho, ‘Kinre wiira akuuchuwenlheni mwaatti. Nthamache va, inyu mwaatti o uwonya va!’ 28 Phi nohalha aya ukhalha nunlhiho ni ukhura miino, vanohalha inyu woona Aburahimu ni Naisaka ni Nayakhobo ni anamilhohi onkhaye nhina Imwene ya Nlhuku, nansho mwaatti nkamwaakhotiya! 29 Attu anoowa ukhuma unosha nchuwa ni akina uneelha nchuwa, uchulhu ni uchawa ni ukhalha ukaraamuni Imwene ya Nlhuku. 30 Eiyo, wo ikekhiaye ahanlhe utulhi anowa ukhalha o uholhelha, ni ayo aholhenlhe vano ayo anowa ukhalha o umalhihera."

31 Yeyo ikatema iyo, Amafarisayo akina nkayaawa wa Yesu ni umwiirelha, "Nthame vaa nrwee vakittu vakina, ukhalhawaya Naherode anothanana uwiivani."

32 Yesu nkaamwaakhulha eeraka, "Nrweeke mwaahimerieke anancheto ayo, ‘Kinoomolha mashoka o unanara ni waalhamiha areta lhelho ni meelho, nihuku no neraru kinomalhiha ntheko aka.’ 33 Inakhalhaka chiicho, lhelho, meelho ni nroto kiri munkwahani mwaka, khavanlhoka namilhohi wiiviya uriwoothe ihikhalhe Uyerusalemu.

34 "Iwani yo Uyerusalemu, iwani yo Uyerusalemu! Nneeva anamilhohi, nnaata malhuku akarumiya arumiye ni Nlhuku! Vachani kilhikanche aka waathothokaniha achishaana inyu, thoko nankutu chineera awe wo wooramelha achishaana awe mmapuphani mwawe, nansho khamwaattunne. 35 Haya etu, iwani inyu inoophomolhiya. Kinouhimeriani wiira, khannokoona mpaka vanohalha inyu wiira, ‘Atotopelhiye uyo nowa wo nchina na Athithi uyo.’ "
