17 Akpe ongwu ta o byin gbɛɛ, <<iSaimɔn ongwɛ iJɔn, ani kpa abu itukwuu?>>

IPyita wulu itukwu ikyesinɛ iYesu byun akpe ongwu ta gbɛɛ, <<Ani kpa abu itukwuu?>> O gbɛɛ, <<Otsɛ, abu ye alungwɔ duu; abu ye gbɛɛ abu kpa ani itukwu.>>

IYesu nyan gbɛɛ, <<Byi mmala mgbi ani enbwa. 18 N nya abu otsitsi, onɔ ngwi abu li mmafa ma, o li gbe angwuto wo ewo di kɛ imbe ngwi abu mina duu, kpaa onɔ ngwi abu yɛɛ ishongye abu ka na abɔ mgbi abu efa, inggisɛ oka ka gbe angwuto wo abu di kye abu kɛ imbe nmina abu okɛɛkɛ ba mani.>> 19 IYesu gbɔ ungwɔnɛ ikye otso itɔ ikwu mgbi iPyita ngwi o ka wa kwu kye okwɔkwɔ nu Imgbasho mani. Ta o nyan gbɛɛ, <<Kyɛdɔ ani!>>

20 IPyita kyata inɛ man di ongwafɔ nkpa iYesu itukwu na kyɛ ma iyikpa. (Li ongwu nsɔ kye ewo ge iYesu mi onɔ ngwi a le gye ungwogye ongwi olɛlɛ di li ongwu teyi byi iYesu gbɛɛ, <<Otsɛ, li emɛ ka kye abu gya?>>) 21 Onɔ ngwi iPyita din nɛ, o byi iYesu gbɛɛ, <<Otsɛ, li ekyɛ ngwi inggisɛ nɛ ka kyɔ?>>

22 IYesu nu uka gbɛɛ, <<kini ani mina gbɛɛ no dzɛ oshishe nghataa ni ani wa yɛ ba ma, li ekyɛ mgbi ema mi ele? Abu yɔ kyɛdɔ ani.>> 23 Mi ikye odzɛ nɛ, ayayi odzɛ gbɔfwɛ mbi emi ongwunɔn gbɛɛ ongwafɔ nɛ ka kwulu ba. Nghaduu iYesu gbɛɛ o ka kwulu ba ba, o gbɔɔgbɔ ta gbɛɛ, <<Kini ani mina gbɛɛ non dzɛ oshishe nghataa ni ani wa yɛ ma, li ekyɛ mgbi ema mi ele?>>

24 Nɛnɛ li ongwafɔ nkyɔ obwɛndɛ mi ungwɔ ntonɛ duu di lɔ ma tokɛ esɛ. Eyi ye dafi obwɛndɛ mgban li otsitsi mani.

25 IYesu kyungwɔ angbeka kpaa kwuba. Ni a ki lɔ alungwɔ duu tokɛ esɛ yɔ, n tsɛwɛ gbɛɛ ɛsɛ duu kpaa imbe kika dzɛ ogbe afɛ ntona tokɛ ba.
