Ntu o nhakhu
(Mat 19:16-30; Mako 10:17-31)
18 Nholhelhi mmoka a Ayahudi nkankoha Yesu, “Owiittuchiha orera nrima, kipangeke ittu yaani kipatte ukumi wo uhimalha?”
19 Yesu ni uyo nkaakoha, “Chani woonaka nnokiihana orera nrima? Khaawo ri orera nrima ahikhalhe Nlhuku vekha awe.
20 Nhochuwelha malheheriyo, ‘Nhilhavelhave, nhiive, nhiiye, nhimwootherie ntu, mwaathimicheke athumwaninyu ni anumwaninyu.’ ”

36 Veewa awe attu enchi aviraka nkaakoha, “Anaa urini?”
37 Nkaakhulhiya wiira, “Yesu o Unazareti phi novira.”
38 Nkaakhuwelha eeraka, “Yesu! Mwaana a Adaudi ukoonelhe ikiriri!”
39 Attu yaaholhenlhe ayo nkayanchachera wiira amaalhe. Nansho uyo nkaathepa ukhuwelha, “Mwaana a Adaudi, ukoonelhe ikiriri!”
40 Yesu nkeemelha ni ulhehera wiira ehaniye. Vaawiihiye awe, Yesu nkankoha,
41 “Unothanana kuupangelheke ittu yaani?”
Nkaakhulha, “Thithi, kinolhepelha woona.”
