1 Vigabitile mazua sita Yesu kawasola Petulo, Yakobo, na Yohana ndugu yake Yakobo kakwela nao kukigongo kitali weiyeka. 2 Yesu kagaluka haulongozi wao, na kihanga chake kinang'hazika kamba zua, na vivalo vake vikala vizelu kamba mulangaza. 3 Bahaja, walawililwa na Musa na Eliya, wolonga na Yesu. 4 Petulo kamulongela Yesu, “Mndewa, vinoga tweye tukale hano! Na uhalonda nozenga vizewe vidatu, kimwe chako, kimwe cha Musa, na kiyagwe cha Eliya.”

5 Viyakalile yang'hali yolonga, wingu zelu diwagubika, na dihulikwa dizwi kulawa mdiwingu dilonga, “Ino iyo Mwanangu yanogele, mtegelezeni heyo!”

6 Wanahina viwahulike vino, wagwa kingubanguba, wona bwembwe ng'hani. 7 Yesu kawacholela, abaho, kawakwasa kawalongela, “Gandamukeni, sambimdumbe!” 8 Na viwalolile uchana, hawamuwene munhu yoyose ila Yesu yeiyeka.

9 Viwahumuluke haikigongo, Yesu kawalagiza yolonga, “Sambimmulongele munhu yoyose gaja gamgawene, mbaka nie, Mwana wa Munhu, vondanizuke kulawa mkudanganhika.”

10 Abaho, wanahina wamuuza Yesu, “Habali wafundiza Malagizo ga Musa wolonga kamba tanhu Eliya yeze?”

11 Yesu kawalongela, “Kweli, Eliya kokwiza kwika goya vinhu vose. 12 Ila nowalongela, Eliya keza kesha, na hewo hawamtambule, ila wamtendela vija viwalondile. Vivija na heyo Mwana wa Munhu kogazigwa mmakono gao.”

13 Abaho, wanahina wavitanga kamba kakala yowalongela mbuli za Yohana M'batiza.

14 Viwavikile hana ididale da wanhu, munhu imwe kamcholela Yesu kamfugamila mavindi, 15 kamulongela, “Mndewa, monele bazi mmhale wangu, kwavija kana kisango na kugazika ng'hani. Mianza bwando kalagalila hamoto ama mgamazi. 16 Nimgala ha wanahina zako, ila walemelwa kumuhonya.”

17 Yesu kawalongela, “Mweye wanhu mwihile, mulibule nhamanila, nokala na mweye mbaka zua jaki? Nowazaganya mbaka zua jaki? Mgaleni hano hamwangu!” 18 Yesu kamkomhokela ija ikinyamkela, na ikinyamkela kamulawa immhale, na heyo kipigiti kikija kahona.

19 Abaho, wanahina wamwizila Yesu kinyele, wamuuza, “Habali tweye tulemelwa kumuwinga?” 20 Yesu kawalongela, “Kwavija muhungukilwa na nhamanila! Nowalongela ikweli, kamba muhawa na nhamanila ndodo kamba mbeyu ya haladali, modaha kukilongela kigongo kino, ‘Segela hano uchole haja!’ Na ikigongo chosegela. Haduhu kinhu chochose chondamulemelwe kutenda!” 21 Ila kinyamkela kamba ino havidahika kulawa, ila mkutambika na kufunga.*Nyandiko ziyagwe za umwaka zabule mnhongo wa 21.

22 Wanahina viwaiting'hane hamoja ako Galilaya, Yesu kawalongela, “nie, Mwana wa Munhu, nogeligwa mmakono ga wanhu, 23 wonikoma, ila gahabita mazua madatu nozuka.” Wanahina wanyunguala ng'hani.
