1 Yesu nkaachokholha tho weetuchiha attu enchi uchereshere nttiya no Ugalilaya. Attu enchi nkaachara nkayanrukureria mpaka nkaawelha nkalhavani nkaakhalha. Ikalhava inari mmaashini, attu yaari anakhanlhe vachengweni.

9 Yesu nkaamalhiha eeraka, “Ri ni maaru eeweke!”

10 Vaari awe nakhanlhe vekha awe, attu akina yamwiiwelhelha nkayaawa vamoka ni owiittucha awe khumi ni elhi anlhepelhaka wiira alhamulhe malhikaaniho awe alhe.
11 Yesu nkaakhulha, “Mwaatti nhovaheriya uchuwelha chittu chivithiye wi Imwene ya Nlhuku.” Nansho arii vathe alhe anoohimeriya yayo malhove ayo wo malhikaaniho,
12 Ikhalhe wiira,
“ ‘Wo ikekhiaye anooweha nansho khanoona,
Anowiiwelhelha,
Nansho khaneewa.
Ukhalhawaya eeraka chiicho,

Nkaahiyerera uwonya waya.’ ”
Yesu noolhamulha malhikaaniho o ntu naalha imbeyu
(Mat 13:18-23; Luk 8:11-15)
13 Yesu nkaakoha eeraka, “Chani woonaka khannochuwelha nna nlhikaaniho nna? Nnottuna uchuwelha chani nlhikaaniho niriyoothe?
14 Ntu o waalha phi naalha nlhove na Nlhuku.
15 Attu akina anokhalha thoko imbeyu chinomorelha vaphironi, eewakaru tu nlhove, Nakare noowa ni uthamiha mmamirimani mwaya.
16 Attu akina anokhalha thoko imbeyu chaamonre vanagagani. Vaneewa aya nttenga anoopochera uno ateelhiyaka munrimani.
17 Nansho khaninaakelha ni ukhalha ni mithithaari nhina mwaya, ahivilhelhaka. Vanokwana aya, khanopicha uhiya nlhove ni ukhwa nrima wo uhipicha.

20 Nansho akhwawe ayo anokhalha thoko imbeyu chaamonre vachaayirani, aneewa nttenga, khupocheraka, ni uyariha imbeyu makhumi mararu, akina makhumi sita akina imia imoka.”
Ikhandiri ikhuneelhiye
(Luk 8:16-18)
21 Yesu nkaathepa tho wulhumacha, “Chani hawo ntu noparihelha ikhandiri awe ni uwiiha mpaani ni ukhunelha ittutu ama neesha nkhwikwichiri? Mena! Anothomia vachulhu ikiango.
22 Ittu iriyoothe ivithiye inowa uhumbukulhiya, ama ittu ikhuneelhiye inowa yaapatakulhiya.
23 Ri ni maaru, eewechesheke!”
24 Nkaahimia tho, “Mwiiwelhelheke mwaha uneewa inyu! Maphimelho anaaphimelha inyu attu, phi chiichammo chinohalha inyu uphimelhiya ni Nlhuku, munchereriyaka chinene.
25 Ntu rina ittu nowunchereriya, ni ayo ahirina ittu anothurulhiya, ata ikani irinawe iyo inookushiya.”
Malhikaaniho o imbeyu immelha

27 Uhiyu arupaka, uthana akhalhaka miitho, nnyepu wunnuwaka. Ni uyo hichuwelhaka ittu.
28 Ittaya ineneru phi nonnuwiha nnyepu ni uyariha, ichokholhaka ukhumelha vathe, ituva, ni ikatema yaphiyaka wiima.
29 Chakhomaalhaka, phi nochokholha awe ntu uthikilhacha ni imboopo awe, ukhalhawaya nlhaalha uhaaya.”
Malhikaaniho o imbeyu yo iharadali
(Mat 13:31-32; Luk 13:18-19)
30 Yesu nkeera, “Nilhikaaniheke ni ishiyani Imwene ya Nlhuku? Nulhumacheke nlhikaaniho naani?
31 Irii thoko cho. Ntu nookusha imbeyu ikaani chinene yo haradali iri imbeyu ikani chinene velhaponi, khwaalhaka vathi.
32 Nansho yaalhiyaka inoomelha ni wunnuwa ukhalha mwiri mulhupalhe upwaha miri chonkhaye. Umelhaka iphata chulhupalhe chinokorelha ashinuni o wiirimu ni utheka iphuuru munttuuchini mwaya.”
33 Yesu aheettuchiha nlhove nawe wo malhikaaniho thoko yayo, aahimeriaka attu chooria aya wiiwelhelha.
34 Kholhumanche nlhove wo uhilhikaaniha, ihikhalhe vaari awe vekha ni owiittucha awe, wowo ahaalhamulhelha malhikaaniho ayo.

(Mat 8:3-27; Luk 8:22-25)
35 Uchechilho nenno nihuku nno, nkaahimeriacha owiittucha awe wiira, “Nngwe nilhapuwe nirwee ukhopelhelhe nttiya.”
36 Paahi nkayaahiyacha attu ayo, nkayaawelha nkalhavani, owiittucha nkayanttwara, nkayaathama. Ikalhava chikina nkachaattwara.
37 Wo uhipicha nkawaawuka iphioo yo machiri, maashi achokholhaka uthemwathemwa athemwihaka ikalhava, ni maashi nkayaakelha nkalhavani.
38 Yesu aari narumpe utulhi ikalhava. Owiittucha awe nkayammusha eeraka, “Owiittuchiha, khannona wiira niri ntatakoni?”
39 Yesu nkoonkwa ni uchachera iphioo iyo, nkeera, “Mmaalhe! Ntondove!” Iphioo nkayaamaalha nkawakhalha shiriri.
40 Yamalheke, Yesu nkeerelha owiittucha awe, “Chani woonaka mwaatti nrima inyu mwankani? Mwoovani?”
41 Nansho yaari yoovaka chinene eerelhanaka ashineneru, “Phi ntu ani yolha? Mpaka iphioo chinomwiiwelhelha!”
