1 Mpobalashika pepi ku Yelusalemu, balashika nanshi ku Betifage ku mulundu wa maolifi, Yesu walatuma beshikwiya bakendi babili, 2 ne kubambileti, "Kamuyani mu munshi uwu ngomulabononga pantangu apa, mwaya mwengila, nimucane mbongolo wasungililwa pamo ne mwanendi, mu basungulule mubalete kuno." 3 Na muntu amwipushe, mumwambileti, "Mwami labayandanga, apwisha kubasebensesha nabalete."

4 "Ici calenshika kwambeti maswi alamba mushinshimi akwanilishiwe, akwambeti,

5 "Kamwambilani munshi wa Siyoni kwambeti

Kobona Mwami wakobe lesanga kulinjobe,

Walicepesha, kayi watanta pa mbongolo.

Watanta pa mwana mbongolo,

nyama ishikumanta mitolo."

6 Popelapo beshikwiya balensa mbuli Yesu ncalabambila. 7 Balaleta mbongolo pamo ne mwanendi, balayansa bikwisa pamusana pa mwanambongolo, uyo ngwalatantapo Yesu. 8 Bantu bangi balayansa bikwisa munshila, nabambi balakwakula misampi yabitondo ne kwiyansa munshila. 9 Bantu bangi balikuba pantangu ne balikuba panyuma, balatatika kubilikisheti, "Hosana kuli Mwanendi Dafeti. Walelekwa uyo lesanga mu Lina lya Lesa, Hosana kuli Lesa wakwilu ku Mayoba."

10 Yesu mpwalengila mu Yelusalemu, bantu bonse balakankamana, nabambi balikabepusheti, "Anu uyu niyani?" 11 Bantu bangi balakumbuleti, "Uyu emushinshimi, Yesu waku Nasaleti, mucishi ca Galileya."
