Nambu mweavi mdebe muunkosi wa Chapanga, mwenuyo ndi mkulu kuliku mwene.”
29 Vandu voha pamonga na vatola kodi vevabatiziwi na Yohani, pevayuwini genago, vakayidakila Chapanga ndi mchakaka. 30 Nambu Vafalisayu na vawula va Malagizu vala vevabatiziwi lepi na Yohani, ndi vabeli mpangu wa Chapanga ndava ya mambu gavi.
31 Yesu akavajovela, “Chiveleku cha vandu ava kwali nivawanangisa na kyani? Vene vandu ava valingini na kiki? 32 Vavi ngati vana vevatamii pandu pakugulisila vindu vikemelana, chikundi chimonga na chiyaki, ‘Tivabetili chitolilo nambu nyenye mwanga kina! Tivayimbili nyimbu za malilu nambu muvembi lepi!’ 33 Yohani peabweli, ajihinisi chakulya wala kunywa divayi, mkamjova ‘Mwenuyu anamzuka!’ 34 Mwana wa Mundu abwelili, ilya na kunywa, nyenye mujova, ‘Mumlola muhutulu na chigaligali uyu, nkozi wa vatola kodi na vandu vevakumbudila Chapanga!’ 35 Nambu luhala lwa Chapanga lulangisa, yakuvya chakaka kwa voha vevakuluyidakila.”
40 Yesu akamjovela mfalisayu yula. “Simoni, chivii chindu chenigana kukujovela.”
41 Yesu akajova, “Vandu vavili vamuyahiki mundu mashonga. Mmonga ayayiki mashonga ga luhuna lwa mwaka umonga na miheyi sita na yungi ayaiki mashonga ga luhuna lwa mwehi umonga na majuma gavili. 42 Voha vavili vavilepi na mashonga ga kuwuyisa, mundu yula avahulumili voha. Hinu yani mweakumugana neju bambu yula?”
43 Simoni akamyangula, “Chakaka mweahulumiwi mashonga ga mahele yula alamugana neju bambu yula.”
48 Yesu akamjovela mdala yula, “Ulekekiswi goha geumbudili Chapanga.”
49 Vandu vala vavatamili na Yesu pakulya pala, vakatumbula kukotana, “Mundu uyu ndi yani? Hati ihotola kulekekesa vandu vevakumbudila Chapanga?”
50 Ndi Yesu akamjovela mdala yula, “Kusadika kwaku kukulamisi, uhamba na uteke.”
