41 Mwetele kuyehi, wamwene ije nganda, co waililililile.
42 Wendekele ngwendi: “Ngwe yobe ha litangwa lya lelo, wanangukile byuma bije binena kwoloka—, oloni kuubimono mwafwa banakushwekelabyo.
43 Matangwa akaija omwo bitozi bobe bakatunga cimpaka ca biti bya kushongomoka. Co bakakuzengeleka na kukushetula noku-noku.
44 Bakakuwisila hasi hamolika na bana bobe. Co hali yobe kubakasezeho limanya helu ya likwabo, mwafwa kuwanangukile simbu ibakele na kukwilula.”
45 Yesu wakobelele mu tempele, co washangumukile kusheka baje bakele na kulandesa.
46 Wabalekele ngwendi: “Banasoneka ngwabo, ‘Njibo yange ikapwa njibo ya kulombelela,’ oloni yeni munaipwisa mwela wa kubanda mapwepwe.”
47 Co watwaleleleleho kulongesa banu mu tempele ha litangwa na litangwa. Oloni tupilistu bakama na baka-kusoneka na bantwama ba banu, bashakele kumutsiya.
48 Oloni kubawanene ngila ya kulinga ngoco, mwafwa banu boshe bakele nendi simbu yoshe mangana bamutolilile.
