1 Lino mungelo umo pa bangelo basanu ne babili basa balikukute ndilo shisanu ne shibili walang'ambileti, “Kwesa ndikuleshe cisubulo Lesa nceti amupe usa mutukashi mufule usa munshi unene webakwa pa menshi angi.
2 Usa mufule wonanga ne bami ba pacishi capanshi, kayi wakolweshanga bantu waini wa bufule bwakendi.”
3 Mpondalekatwa ne Mushimu wa Lesa, mungelo walantwala ku cinyika. Uko nkondalabona mutukashi kaliwatanta pa cinyama cifubela, calikuba calembwa maina mubili wonse akutukana Lesa. Kayi calikukute mitwi isanu ne ibili ne meca likumi.
4 Mutukashi uyu walikuba wafwala byakufwala bya fubeluka ne byafubela byadula, walikobaika malungu a golide amushobo uliwonse. Walikukute nkomeshi ya golide mu cikasa cakululyo yesula ne bintu byasesemya, kayi byasafwana, bya cabufule bwakendi.
5 Pa nkumo pakendi palikuba palembwa lina lyashupa kulipandulula, lyakwambeti, “Babulo waya lulumbi, nyabo wa bafule bonse ne bintu bishikusesemya byonse bya mu cishi capanshi.”
6 Kayi ndalabona mutukashi uyo katantalika, cebo ca milopa njalanwa ya bantu baswepa, kayi ne ya bakamboni ba Yesu mbobalashina.
Mpondalamubona ndalakankamana.
7 Lino mungelo walanjipusheti, “Inga nicani ncolakankamananga?” Ninkwambile sha mutukashi uyu, ne sha cinyama ncatantapo ne sha mitwi isanu ne ibili kayi ne sha meca likumi asa.
8 Cinyama ncolabono calikubako, kayi cilashimangana, cilipepi kupula mucisengu, nomba nicikenga kuya kufwa. Lino bantu bekala pa cishi capanshi, babula kulembwa maina abo mu libuku lya bayumi kacitana cilengwa cishi, bakaboneti cinyama calikubako, calashimangana, kayeti cilesa, nibakakankamane.
9 “Pano epalayandikinga mano ne kunyumfwishisha. Mitwi isanu ne ibili isa pekala mutukashi,ilemanininga milundu isanu ne ibili, kayi iyi mitwi isanu ne ibili ilemanininga bami basanu ne babili.
10 Bami basanu bafwa kendi, umo ucendelesha, wakupwililisha nkana esa. Nomba akesa nakekalowa kacindi kang'ana.”
11 “Cinyama cisa calikubako, kayi calashimangana cilemanininga mwami wa cisanu ne citatu, uyo eti akapule mu mitwi isanu ne ibili, lino neye nakonongeke.”
12 “Nawo meca likumi ngowalabona alemanininga bami likumi batana batatika kwendelesha. Nabo nibakapewe bwami, nibakendeleshe pamo ne cinyama kwa kacindi kang'anowa.
13 Bami aba bali likumi nibakabe ne muyeyo umo, nibakape ngofu ne bwendeleshi ku cinyama.
14 Nibakalwane ne Mwana mbelele, lino Mwana mbelele pamo ne bantu bakwiwa bakendi, basalwa, kayi bakute lushomo, nibakabakome, pakwinga Yesu eMwami wa bami bonse.”
15 Kayi mungelo walang'ambileti, “Asa menshi ngowabona pekala mutukashi mufule, alemanininga bishi ne bantu bankanda shapusana kayi ne milaka.”
16 Nawo asa meca likumi ne cinyama ncowalabona nibikamupele mutukashi mufule, ne kumulamuna bintu byonse, ne kumufulula matakosha, nibakalye minyemfu yakendi ne kumutenta pa mulilo.
17 Pakwinga Lesa nakabike kuyanda kwakendi mu myoyo yabo kwambeti basebensele pamo ne cinyama pakucipa ngofu shakwendelesha mpaka maswi a Lesa akakwanilishiwe.
18 “Mutukashi ngowabonanga ni mushi wayampuwo ulendeleshenga bami bonse pa cishi capanshi.”
