17 Zvino akati kuvadzidzi vake: “Hazviiti kuti zvinhu zvinogumbura zvirege kuuya.+ Kunyange zvakadaro, ane nhamo uyo wazvinouya nokwaari!+
2 Zvaizova nani kwaari kudai guyo raizosungirirwa mumutsipa make, okandwa mugungwa+ pane kuti agumbure mumwe wevaduku ava.+
3 Zvichenjererei. Kana hama yako ikakutadzira itsiure,+ kana ikapfidza ikanganwire.+
4 Kunyange kana ikakutadzira kanomwe pazuva, ikadzoka kwauri kanomwe, ichiti, ‘Ndapfidza,’ unofanira kuikanganwira.”+
5 Zvino vaapostora vakati kunaShe: “Tiwedzereiwo kutenda.”+
6 Ishe akabva ati: “Kudai maiva nokutenda kwakakura setsanga yemasitadhi, maizoti kumuhabhurosi uyu, ‘Dzupuka uzvisime mugungwa!’ uye iwo waizokuteererai.+
7 “Ndiani wenyu ane muranda anenge achirima kana anenge achichengeta boka rezvipfuwo angati kwaari kana asvika achibva kumunda, ‘Chibva wauya pano utsenhame patafura’?
8 Panzvimbo paizvozvo, haangati here kwaari, ‘Ndigadzirire chimwe chinhu kuti ndidye kudya kwangu kwemanheru, upfeke epuroni, undishumire kusvikira ndapedza kudya nokunwa, uye pashure iwewo wozodya hako nokunwa’?
9 Iye angaonga muranda wacho nokuti aita zvinhu zvaakanzi anofanira kuita here?
10 Naizvozvo nemiwo, kana maita zvinhu zvose zvamunenge manzi muite, itii, ‘Tiri varanda pasina.+ Zvataita ndizvo zvataifanira kuita.’”
11 Zvino paaienda kuJerusarema akanga achipfuura nepakati peSamariya neGarireya.+
12 Zvaakanga ava kupinda mune mumwe musha akasangana nevarume gumi vakanga vaine maperembudzi,+ asi vakasimuka vakamira vari kure.
13 Vakashevedzera, vakati: “Jesu, Murayiridzi, tinzwireiwo ngoni!”+
14 Paakavaona akati kwavari: “Endai munozviratidza kuvapristi.”+ Zvino pavakanga vachienda, vakabva vanatswa.+
15 Mumwe wavo, paakaona kuti aporeswa, akadzoka, achikudza+ Mwari nenzwi guru.
16 Akawira pasi nechiso chake patsoka+ dzaJesu, achimuonga; kunze kwaizvozvo, iye akanga ari muSamariya.+
17 Achipindura, Jesu akati: “Hakuna kunatswa vanhu gumi here? Saka, vamwe vapfumbamwe vari kupi?
18 Pashayikwa nomumwe chete adzoka kuzokudza Mwari kunze kwouyu murume worumwe rudzi here?”
19 Akati kwaari: “Simuka uende; kutenda kwako kwakuporesa.”+
20 Asi paakabvunzwa nevaFarisi kuti umambo hwaMwari hwakanga huchiuya rini,+ iye akavapindura, akati: “Umambo hwaMwari hahuuyi huchinyatsocherechedzwa,
21 uye vanhu vanenge vasingati, ‘Onai kuno!’ kana kuti, ‘Uko!’+ Nokuti, tarirai! umambo hwaMwari huri pakati penyu.”+
22 Zvino akati kuvadzidzi: “Mazuva achauya pamuchada kuona rimwe remazuva oMwanakomana womunhu asi hamuzorioni.+
23 Vanhu vachati kwamuri, ‘Onai uko!’ kana kuti, ‘Onai pano!’+ Musabuda kana kuvatevera.+
24 Nokuti semheni,+ nokupenya kwayo, inovhenekera kubva kune rumwe rutivi rwepasi pedenga kusvikira kune rumwe rutivi rwepasi pedenga, ndizvo zvichaita Mwanakomana womunhu.+
25 Zvisinei, anofanira kutanga atambura zvinhu zvizhinji, orambwa nechizvarwa chino.+
26 Zvakare, sezvazvakaita mumazuva aNoa,+ ndizvo zvazvichaitawo mumazuva oMwanakomana womunhu:+
27 vaidya, vainwa, varume vachiroora, vakadzi vachiroorwa, kusvikira pazuva rakapinda Noa muareka, uye mafashamo akasvika, akavaparadza vose.+
28 Saizvozvowo, sezvazvakaita mumazuva aRoti:+ vaidya, vainwa, vaitenga, vaitengesa, vaidyara, uye vaivaka.
29 Asi pazuva rakabuda Roti muSodhoma kwakanaya moto nesarufa zvichibva kudenga zvikavaparadza vose.+
30 Zvichavawo saizvozvo pazuva iroro pacharatidzwa Mwanakomana womunhu.+
31 “Pazuva iroro munhu ari pamusoro peimba asi aine zvinhu zvake zvinotakurika zviri mumba ngaarege kuburuka kuti azvitore, uye saizvozvo munhu ari kumunda, ngaarege kudzokera kuzvinhu zvakasara.
32 Yeukai mudzimai waRoti.+
33 Munhu wose anotsvaka kuchengetedza mweya wake acharasikirwa nawo, asi munhu wose anorasikirwa nawo achauchengetedza uri mupenyu.+
34 Ndinokuudzai kuti, ‘Usiku ihwohwo varume vaviri vachange vari pamubhedha mumwe chete; mumwe achaendwa naye, asi mumwe achasiyiwa.+
35 Pachava nevakadzi vaviri vanenge vachikuya paguyo rimwe chete; mumwe achaendwa naye, asi mumwe achasiyiwa.”+
