Mateus 18

Mukoshanyo wa musebenshi utalekelele munendi

21 Popelapo Petulo walesa kuli Yesu, ne kumwipusheti, "Nkambo, na mukwetu kapitilishowa kunjipishila, ngandimulekelela tunkanda tungaye? Sena nganshikisha tunkanda tusanu ne tubili?" 22 Yesu walamukumbuleti, "Sena ndambangowa tunkanda tusanu ne tubili, sobwe, nsombi tunkanda makumi asanu ne abili kufulisha tunkanda tusanu ne tubili."

23 Lino Bwami bwa kwilu tubwelanishe cisa. Palikuba mwami uyo walakuwa basebenshi bakendi kwambeti, abone cena nkongole nshobalikukute. 24 Mpwalatatika kubasesa, kwalacanika musebenshi naumbi walikukute nkongole ya mali angi akwana bina myanda myanda. 25 Mpwalalilwa kubwesha nkongole, Mwami walambeti, musebenshi usa aulishiwe ne mukashendi ne banabendi, ne bintu byonse mbyalikukute, kwambeti nkongole isa ipwe. 26 Musebenshi usa walasuntama nekufulungana panshi pamenso pa mwami ne kukombeleleti, "Kamupembelelako pang’ana ninkabweshe nkongole yonse." 27 Mwami usa walanyumfwila luse, ne kumulekelela nkongole yonse, ne kumusuminisheti, ayenga.

28 Nomba uyu musebenshi mpwalapula, walakumanya musebenshi munendi walikumukutile nkongole ya mali akwana mwanda umo. Walamwikata mwabukalu ne kumutinga panshingo, ne kumwambileti, "Bwesha nkongole isa!" 29 Musebenshi munendi usa walaliwisha panshi kumyendo yakendi ne kumukombeleleti, Kamupembelelako pang’ana, ninkabweshe nkongole njonkute kuli njamwe. 30 Nendi walakana kumulekelela, walamusungisha mujele, kushikila akabweshe nkongole.

31 Basebenshi nabambi mpobalabona calenshika, balepilwa kwine. Neco balaya kumwambila mwami bintu byonse. 32 Mwami usa walamukuwa, ne kumwambileti, "Musebenshi waipa obe! Ame ndalakulekelela nkongole yonse mpowalankombelela. 33 Sena nkowanga welela kumwinshila nkumbo ne kumulekelela munobe mbuli ame ncondakwinshila nkumbo ne kukulekelela?" 34 Mwami usa walakalala, neco walamuwala mujele kwambeti bakamupenshe, kushikla akabweshe nkongole isa,

35 Yesu walapwisha kwamba pakwambeti "Ici encoti bakense Bata bakwilu kuli umo ne umo, uyo utalekelele munendi ne moyo wonse."
