23 Hanyuma, Yesu akabaliza ebitebe by’abantu n’abegeswa be, ati:
2 “Abahandiiki n’Abafalisaayo betaire omu kiikaro kya Musa.
3 Nahabweki, ebintu byona ebi babagambira kukora, mubikole baitu mutakora nka bo oku bakora, habwokuba tibateeka omu nkora ebi babaza.
4 Basiba emigugu erukulemeera nibagiteeka h’amabega g’abantu abandi, baitu ubo tibarukugonza n’okugikwasaaho ekyara kyabo.
5 Byona ebi bakora, babikora nukwo abantu babarole, habwokuba bagalihya obusanduuko oburumu ebyahandiikirwe obu bajwara kubalinda, kandi baraihya emikugiro y’ebijwaro byabo.
6 Bagonza ebiikaro eby’ekitiinisa ha biihuro ebya rwebagyo, n’entebe ez’omu maiso omu masorrokaniro.
7 Kandi bagonza kubaramukya omu butale, n’abantu kubeeta Rabbi.
8 Baitu inywe mutalyetwa Rabbi, habwokuba Omwegesa wanyu ali omu kandi inywena muli b’oruganda.
9 Kandi mutalyeta omuntu weena omu nsi isiinywe, habwokuba Isiinywe ali omu, Ogu ow’ali omu iguru.
10 Rundi mutalyetwa abebembezi habwokuba Omwebembezi wanyu ali omu, Kristo.
11 Baitu arukukirayo obukuru omuli inywe asemeriire kuba muheereza wanyu.
12 Ogu weena ayenyumiza wenka,* alibundaazibwa, kandi ogu weena ayebundaaza alinyumizibwa.
13 “Mulikibona, inywe abahandiiki n’Abafalisaayo, abagobya! habwokuba mukingira abantu aheeru nukwo batataaha omu Bukama obw’omu iguru; inywe inywenka timubutaahamu kandi mulemesa n’abo abarukugonza kubutaahamu.

15 “Mulikibona, inywe abahandiiki n’Abafalisaayo, abagobya! habwokuba mwambuka enyanja kandi nimugendera na ha bwerre kuhindura omuntu omu, kandi obu ahinduka, mumufoora muntu ow’asemeriire Gehena* emirundi ebiri kukira inywe.
16 “Mulikibona, inywe abebembezi abafiire amaiso, abagamba ngu, ‘Kakuba omuntu arahirra yekaru, tikirukumwetaagisa kuhikiiriza eki yarahiire; baitu ogu ow’arahirra ezaabbu ey’omu yekaru, aine kuhikiiriza eki ayeragire.’
17 Badoma inywe, kandi abafu b’amaiso! Ni kiha ekirukukira obukuru, ezaabbu rundi yekaru ey’erukweza ezaabbu?
18 Ekindi, mugamba ngu ‘kakuba omuntu arahirra ekyoto, tikirukumwetaagisa kuhikiiriza eki arahiire; baitu kakuba omuntu arahirra ekisembo ekiri ha kyoto, aba aine kuhikiiriza eki arahiire.’
19 Inywe abafu b’amaiso! Ni kiha ekirukukira obukuru, ekisembo rundi ekyoto ekirukweza ekisembo?
20 Nahabweki, weena ow’arahirra ekyoto, arahirra n’ebintu byona ebiroho;
21 n’ogu weena ow’arahirra yekaru, aba naarahirra Ogu ow’agiikaramu;
22 kandi ogu weena ow’arahirra iguru, aba naarahirra ekitebe kya Ruhanga n’Ogu ow’akikaliireho.
23 “Mulikibona, inywe abahandiiki n’Abafalisaayo, abagobya! habwokuba muhayo kimu kya ikumi ekya minti, na neta, hamu na kumino, baitu munagiriize ebintu ebirukukirayo obukuru omu Biragiro, nk’obwinganiza, embabazi, hamu n’obwesigwa. Ebintu binu nibyo bisemeriire kukorwa kandi n’okutanagiriza ebintu ebindi.
24 Abebembezi abafiire amaiso, nimusengiija akahuka omu byokunywa, baitu nimumira engamiya!
25 “Mulikibona, inywe abahandiiki n’Abafalisaayo, abagobya! habwokuba musemeza aheeru y’ekikopo n’ebbakuli, baitu munda mwijwire omururu n’okutetanga.
26 Inywe Abafalisaayo abafiire amaiso, mubanze musemeze omunda y’ekikopo n’ebbakuli, nukwo aheeru yabyo naho hasemere.
27 “Mulikibona, inywe abahandiiki n’Abafalisaayo, abagobya! nimusisana ebituuro ebisiigirwe erangi erukwera, ebirukuzooka kurungi aheeru, baitu munda biijwire amagufa g’abafu hamu n’oburofu obwa buli mulingo.
28 Omu mulingo nugwo gumu, aheeru nimuzooka nk’abantu abahikiriire, baitu omunda yanyu mwijwire obugobya n’obujeemu.
29 “Mulikibona, inywe abahandiiki n’Abafalisaayo, abagobya! habwokuba mwombeka ebituuro bya banabbi kandi mutimba ebituuro by’abahikiriire,
30 nimugamba muti, ‘Kakuba tukaba turoho omu biro bya baisenkuru itwe, titwakubeteraniizeeho omu kuseesa esagama ya banabbi.’
31 Nahabweki, nimweheera obwakaiso ngu muli baijukuru baabo, abaisire banabbi.
32 Nahabweki, mumaliirize eki, baisenkuru inywe eki baatandikire.
33 “Inywe enjoka, abaana b’enjoka ez’obusegwa,* mulikira muta omusango gwa Gehena?
34 Habw’ensonga enu, nimbasindikira banabbi, abasaija ab’amagezi, hamu n’abeegesa. Abamu mulibaita, mubahanike ha miti, abandi mulibaterra omu masorrokaniro ganyu, kandi mulibahiiganiza omu mbuga zoona,
35 nukwo mube n’omusango ogw’okuseesa esagama y’abahikiriire boona ey’aseeserwe omu nsi, kuruga ha sagama y’omusaija ow’okuhikirra Aberi, kuhika ha sagama ya Zakaliya, mutabani wa Barakiya ou mwaitiire hagati ya yekaru n’ekyoto.
36 Mananu kwo nimbagambira nti, ebintu binu byona birihika h’abantu ab’obusinge bunu.
37 “Yerusalemu, Yerusalemu, omwisi wa banabbi kandi anyakuteera amabaale abasindikirweyo; emirundi nyingi nkagonza kusorooza hamu abaana baawe, nk’enkoko oku esorooza obwana bwayo hansi y’amapapa gaayo! Baitu mutakigonze.
38 Dora! Enju yanyu erekerweho.
39 Nimbagambira nti, timulyongera kundora kuhikya obu muligamba muti, ‘Aine omugisa ogu ow’aizira omu ibara lya Yahwe!’”
