Luka 14:1-35
14 Kimye kimo watwelele mu nzubo ya ntangi wa Bafaliseo pa juba ja Sabado na kuja kajo, kabiji bamutajilenga bingi.
2 Kabiji kwajinga muntu umo wajinga na butumbwevumo* wajinga kulutwe yanji.
3 Onkao mambo, Yesu waipwizhe aba bayuka Mizhilo ne Bafaliseo, amba: “Nanchi kijitu bulongo kubuka nangwa kubula kubuka muntu pa juba ja Sabado nyi?”+
4 Bino abo bazhindaminetu. Ponkapo wakwachile uno muntu ne kumubuka ne kumwambila amba ayenga.
5 Kepo ebepwizhe’mba: “Ñanyi mwi anweba umvwe mwananji wa mulume nangwa ñombe waponena mu mushima+ ubula kumutuntulamo bukiji pa juba ja Sabado?”+
6 Kabiji abo bakankelwe ne kya kwambapo pa kino kintu.
7 Kabiji benyi bo baichile wibelele kishimpi byo amwene saka besajila bene bipona bya buneme.+ Wibambijile’mba:
8 “Umvwe muntu wimwita ku kijiilo kya masongola, kange mwikale pa bipona bya buneme ne.+ Mambo kampe muntu wimukila naye bamwita.
9 Kabiji awa wimwichile anweba bonse babiji ukeya ne kwimwambila’mba, ‘Fumaipo pekale babo.’ Ne anweba kikemulenga bumvu pa kutuntulukila pa kipona kyabula kya buneme.
10 Bino umvwe bemwita, ikalai pa kipona kyabula kya buneme, kuba’mba umvwe wimwichile waiya, ukemwambila’mba, ‘Obewa mulunda nami, iya wikale pa kino kya buneme.’ Ne anweba mukanema ku bakwenu bonse baiya.+
11 Mambo yense witumbijika aye mwine bakamupelula, pakuba yense wipelula mwine bakamutumbijika.”+
12 Kabiji waambijile ne yewa wamwichile’mba: “Umvwe wanengezha kajo ka mute nangwa ka mabanga, kange wite balunda nobe, nangwa bakolojobe nangwa bankasobe ba balume nangwa balongo bobe nangwa banonshi bo wikala nabo kinkalankulo ne. Mambo kampe nabo kimye kimo bakonsha kukwitako, kabiji kino kyakonsha kwikala mfweto yobe.
13 Bino umvwe wanengezha kijiilo ita bayanji, basunkuta, balemana ne bampofu;+
14 kabiji ukekala na lusekelo, mambo abo kafwako kyo bakakufweta ne. Mambo obewa bakakufweta mu kimye kikasanguka+ baoloka.”
15 Byo baumvwine bino bintu, mwenyi umo wamwambijile’mba: “Watokwa awa uja* mu Bufumu bwa Lesa.”
16 Yesu wamwambijile’mba: “Muntu umo wanengezhe kijiilo kikatampe kya mabanga,+ kabiji waichile bantu bavula.
17 Watumine kalume wanji pa kimye kya kijiilo kya mabanga kuya na kwita bo aichile amba, ‘Iyai, mambo byonse banengezha kala.’
18 Bino bonse batendekele kukeba mashinda mwa kukaina.+ Mutanshi wamwambijile’mba, ‘Napota bujimi kabiji mbena kukeba kuya na kwibumona; mwane ndekelaiko mambo kechi nsakukonsha kwiyako ne.’
19 Mukwabo naye waambile’mba, ‘Napota bañombe jikumi ba ku bikonkoji kabiji mbena kuya na kwibamona; mwane ndekelaiko mambo kechi nsakukonsha kwiyako ne.’+
20 Kabiji mukwabo naye waambile’mba, ‘Amiwa po po nasongolatu, onkao mambo, kechi nsakukonsha kwiyako ne.’
21 Ponkapo awa kalume wabwelele na kubuula nkambo yanji bino bintu. Kepo mwina nzubo azhingijile ne kwambila kalume wanji amba, ‘Pelawizha kuya mu mikwakwa ne mu mashinda a mu mizhi, ne kuleta kuno bayanji, basunkuta, bampofu ne balemana.’
22 Byo papichile kimye, kalume wanji wamwambijile’mba, ‘Nkambo, nauba byonse byo mwaji kunkambizha, bino mpunzha moikiji.’
23 Onkao mambo, nkambo yanji waambijile kalume jikwabo amba, ‘Yanga mu mikwakwa ne mu mashinda ne kwibambila beye kuba’mba bayuzhe nzubo yami.+
24 Nemwambila anweba namba kafwako nangwa umo pa boba bantu bo naji kwita patanshi usakujako ku kijiilo kyami kya mabanga ne.’”+
25 Mabumba akatampe amulondejilenga, kabiji waalulukile ne kwibambila’mba:
26 “Umvwe muntu waiya ko nji ne kubula kushikwa* bashanji, bainanji, mukazhanji, baana banji, bakolojanji nangwa bankasanji ba balume, banyenga yanji nangwa bumi* bwanji,+ kechi wakonsha kwikala mwanami wa bwanga ne.+
27 Yense ubula kusenda kichi* kyanji kya lumanamo ne kundondela ne, kechi wakonsha kwikala mwanami wa bwanga ne.+
28 Ñanyi mwi anweba uba inge ukeba kushimika kyamba ubula kukikala panshi ne kubala mali o akengijisha kuba’mba amone kana uji na avula a kwikipwishisha?
29 Mambo inge wabula kuba kino, wakonsha kwalatu kitendekesho ne kukankalwa kwikipwisha, kabiji bantu bonse bamonako, bakonsha kumuseka,
30 ne kwamba’mba: ‘Uno muntu watendekele kushimika, bino wakankalwa kupwisha.’
31 Nangwa ñanyi mfumu uji na bashilikale 10,000 wakonsha kuya na kulwa nkondo na mfumu mukwabo, ubula kukikala panshi ne kumona kana wakonsha kushinda mukwabo uji na bashilikale 20,000?
32 Umvwe wakankalwa kuba bino, mukwabo byo akiji kwalepa, utumako jibumba ja bantomesha na kukeba mwa kupwaina.
33 Byonkabyo, yukai’mba yense ubula kusha* bintu byanji byonse kechi wakonsha kwikala mwanami wa bwanga ne.+
34 “Kwambatu kine, mukele wawama. Bino umvwe mukele wasamuka, bakamutobesha na ka?+
35 Kechi wikala wafwainwa kubikwa mu mushiji nangwa mu mbolezha ne. Bantu bamutaya. Uji na matwi omvwe.”+
