1 Ambe, okuhita gayo, Yeesu akagya Yerusaremu kuginiha enyaangi endebhe ya Abhayahudi. 2 Yerusaremu muyo, kyaari kireho ekisyooko ekikuru kino kikubhirikirwa Ekisyooko kye Engʼoondu. Haguhi ne ekisyooko kiyo, ryaari ririho eriisima rino eriina ryaaye mukigaambo kye Ekieburania ni Betizata. Eriisima riyo rikiinogoorwa na amabhuru ataano gano gaari ne eziitimu. 3 Mumabhuru gayo, bhaari bharahiindira abhaatu bhaaru: abhahoku, amagata na bhano bhakuuri ebhiimo. [Bhaari bharaganya amaanzi gahoribhwe, 4 kwe ekigirirye maraika wa Taatabhugya yaari araaza kubhusa amaanzi mukisima kiyo. Omuutu wuno yaari wo okutaanga kusikira mumaanzi, yaari arahora obhurweeri bhuno yaari nabhwe.] 5 Gati waabhu, yaari arimu omusubhe wumwe wuno yaari murweeri kwe eriibhaga rye emyaaka miroongo etatu ne enaane (38). 6 Niho Yeesu akamurora ahiindiiri hayo, akamenya kubha, omuutu wuyo yaarwaariri ibhaga itaambi. Akamubhuurya, “Mbe, oreenda kuhora?”

7 Omurweeri wuyo akamukyoora Yeesu, “Omukuru, eriibhaga rino amaanzi gakuhoribhwa, ntana omuutu wo okunisakirya nisikire mukisima. Hano nikweenda kusikira mumaanzi, omuutu owuundi aranikaangatira kusikira muyo.”

8 Niho Yeesu akamubhuurira, “Imeerera, gega ekiigi kyaazo, no ogeende.” 9 Hayohayo, omuutu wuyo akahora, akagega ekiigi kyaaye, akataanga kugeenda!

Yeesu akamuhorya omuutu wuyo orusiku rwo okumuunya.[a] 10 Kweego, abhakaangati bha Abhayahudi bhakamubhuurira omuutu wuyo wuno akahoribhwa, “Reero ni rusiku rwo okumuunya. Emigiro gyeetu gyo orusiku rwo okumuunya gitakwiikirirya okugega ekiigi kyaazo.”

11 Nawe akabhuga, “Omuutu wuno anihorirye, niwe anibhuuriiri, ‘Gega ekiigi kyaazo, ogeende.’ ”

12 Abhakaangati bhayo bhakamubhuurya, “Ni weewi wuno akubhuuriiri kukora ego?”

13 Nawe ataamumenyiri wuno amuhonirye, kwe ekigirirye Yeesu ataarorekeeni kweeki musaango ekuru ya abhaatu bhano bhaariho. 14 Ambe, okuhita gayo, Yeesu akamubhona omuutu wuyo mwiiseengerero, akamubhuurira, “Itegeerera, bhoono ohoriri. Otabha orakora ebhibhi kweeki, otaaza kunyaaka kukira bhurya waari kunyaaka kubhutaangiro.” 15 Rugeendo rumwe, omuutu wuyo akagya kubhakaangati bha Abhayahudi, akabhabhuurira kubha ni Yeesu wuno akamuhorya.

16 Niho abhakaangati bha Abhayahudi bhakataanga kumunyaakya Yeesu, kwe ekigirirye yaari arahorya abhaatu orusiku rwo okumuunya. 17 Nawe Yeesu akabhabhuurira, “Taata arakora emirimo eziisiku zyoosi, na neenye ndakora egoego.” 18 Ambe, iguru wa amangʼana gayo, abhakaangati bha Abhayahudi bhakataanga kukomya enzira yo okumwiita Yeesu. Bhaari bhareenda kukora ego, kwo okubha Yeesu yaari arasarya emigiro gyo orusiku rwo okumuunya nawe ekibhi bhukongʼu ni kwo okubha yaari arabhuga, Taatabhugya ni Wiise. Kwo okugaamba ego, yaari ariikora ni kya Taatabhugya.

19 Yeesu akabhabhuurira abhakaangati bhayo, “Ndabhabhuurira obhuheene, Omwaana wa Taatabhugya atakunagya kukora ryoryoosi ewe omweene, nawe arakora gano akurora Wiise waabhu akukora ego. Goosi gano Wiise waabhu akukora, nigo gano Omwaana akukora. 20 Taata aramuseega Omwaana, na aramweerekya emirimo gyoosi gino akukora. Kweeki, aramweerekya kyeego araakore amangʼana amakuru kukira gano yaari amariri kugakora, na neemwe muraaruguure bhukongʼu. 21 Kyeego Taata akuryoora abhaku no okubhaha obhuhoru bhwa kirakeego, ego niigo Omwaana neewe akubhaha obhuhoru abhaatu bhano akweenda okubhaha. 22 Taata atakutinira ekiina omuutu wowoosi, nawe amuheeri Omwaana waaye obhuturo bhwoosi bhwo okutinira ekiina abhaatu, 23 okubha kwe enzira yiyo bhoosi bhamusuuke Omwaana kyeego bhakumusuuka Wiise. Omuutu wowoosi wuno atakumusuuka Omwaana, wuyo atakumusuuka Wiise waabhu wuno yamutumiri.

24 “Ndabhabhuurira obhuheene, omuutu wowoosi wuno akwiigwa amangʼana gaane no okumwiikirirya Taatabhugya wuno anitumeenie, wuyo ano obhuhoru bhwa kirakeego. Omuutu wuyo atakutinirwa ekiina, nawe amariri okwaambuka okurwa muruku no okusikira mubhuhoru bhwa kirakeego. 25 Ndabhabhuurira obhuheene, eriibhaga riraaza, kweeki eriibhaga riyo rimariri kuhika, abhaku bhariigwa eriiraka ryo Omwaana wa Taatabhugya. Niho abhaatu bhano bhakubha bharamwiitegeerera, bhararyoorwa bharabha no obhuhoru bhwa kirakeego. 26 Kyeego Taata ano obhunagya bhwo okumuha omuutu obhuhoru bhwa kirakeego, egoego amuheeri Omwaana waaye obhunagya bhwo okubhaha abhaatu obhuhoru bhuyo bhwa kirakeego. 27 Kweeki, amuheeri Omwaana waaye obhuturo bhwo okutinira ekiina abhaatu, kwe ekigirirye ewe niwe Omwaana wo Omuutu. 28 Mutaruguura amangʼana gayo! Riraaza eriibhaga rino abhaku bhoosi bhariigwa eriiraka ryo Omwaana wo Omuutu, 29 neebho bhararyooka no okurwa muziimbiihira zyaabhu. Abhaatu bhano bhaari bharakora amazomu, bhararyoorwa, no okuhaanwa obhuhoru bhwa kirakeego, nawe bhano bhaari bhakukora amabhiihu, bhararyoorwa no okutinirwa ekiina.

30 “Enye nitakunagya kukora ryoryoosi omweene. Ndatinira ekiina abhaatu kyeego Taata waane akunibhuurira. Obhutini bhwe ekiina bhwaane ni bhwe eheene, kwo okubha nitakukora kyeego enye omweene nikweenda, nawe ndakora kyeego Taata akweenda, wuno yaanitumeenie.

31 “Eraabhe niingiimenyeekereerye enye omweene obhumenyeekererya bhwaane, bhutari bhwe eheene. 32 Nawe ariho owuundi wuno akunimenyeekererya amangʼana gaane kweemwe, wuno niwe Taata. Na neenye nimenyiri kubha, obhumenyeekererya bhwaaye ni bhwe eheene. 33 Emwe mukatuma abhabhagati ku Yohana Omubatiizi, neewe akabhagaambira obhuheene iguru waane. 34 Enye nitakwiisigira obhugaambi bhwa abhaatu, nawe ndabhabhuurira goosi gayo, okubha mubhone kutuuribhwa.

35 “Yohana Omubatiizi yaari kyeego etara yino ekwaaka no okumirika mukiirima, na neemwe mukazomererwa obhweero bhuyo kwiibhaga iguhi. 36 Nawe enye nino obhumenyeekererya obhukuru kukira bhwa Yohana, nigyo emirimo gino Taata waane yaniheeri kukuunaania. Emirimo gyaane gireerekya kubha, Taata waane niwe yantumeenie. 37 Neewe Taata waane wuno yantumeenie, omweene animenyeekereerye kweemwe. Emwe mukyaari kwiigwa eriiraka ryaaye, naabhe okurora ewe kyeego ari. 38 Amangʼana gaaye, gatakwiikara muusi weenyu, kwe ekigirirye mutakumwiikirirya wurya wuno Taatabhugya yamtumeenie kweemwe.

39 “Murakora omukya kwiisuunza Amakaamo Amahoreeru, kwo okubha muriiseega muranagya okubhona muyo obhuhoru bhwa kirakeego. Amakaamo gayogayo nigo gakunimenyeekererya enye! 40 Nawe muraanga okuuza kweenye, okubha mubhone obhuhoru bhwa kirakeego.

41 “Enye nitakukomya omukumo okurwa kubhaatu. 42 Nawe nimenyiri kyeego emwe muri, kubha mutana obhuseegi bhwa Taatabhugya muziikoro zeenyu. 43 Enye niiziri kwo obhuturo bhwa Taata waane, nawe muraanga kunisuungʼaana. Nawe omuutu owuundi hano akuuza kwo obhuturo bhwaaye omweene, ewe muramusuungʼaana. 44 Emwe museegiri okukumibhwa na abharikyeenyu, nawe mutakukomya omukumo guno gukurwa ku Taatabhugya omweene. Bhoono, muranagya igabhwi kuniikirirya enye? 45 Mutiiseega kubha, enye ndabhahaya ku Taata. Wuno araabhahaye ni Musa, kwe ekigirirye wuyo niwe mukumwiisigira. 46 Eraabhe eheene muungikiriirye amangʼana ga Musa, ambe enye woosi muunganiikiriirye, kwe ekigirirye Musa akakaama amangʼana gaane. 47 Nawe eraabhe mutakwiikirirya amakaamo ga Musa, ambe muranagya igabhwi okwiikirirya amangʼana gaane?”
