1 Ndipo Jezu adanyamuka pambuto ire, adayenda kumphimpha ya kuJudeya, kumphimpha ya ng'ambu ya mkulo wa Jolodani. Ndipo wanthu azinji adadzagumana pomwe na iye. Mwa cizerewezi cace, akhawapfunzisa pomwe. 2 Ndipo adafika aFalizi anango, adamubvundza kuti: “Nandi ni bzakubvumizidwa kuti munthu alambe mkazi wace?” Akhadam'bvundza tenepo kuti amunyang'anire thangwe. 3 Jezu adawatawira aciti: “Ni ciani comwe Mozeji adakulamulirani?” 4 Iwo adati: “Mozeji adabvumiza kuti munthu anembere mkazi wace tsamba lakulambana patsogolo pace amucose”. 5 Jezu adati: “Mozeji adakunemberani Mtemo umweyo thangwe ra kuuma mitima kwanu. 6 Koma, paciyambi pa bzentse Mulungu, adalenga wanthu, mwamuna na mkazi. 7 Thangwe race mwamuna an'dzasiya baba na mai, acikaphatana na mkazi wace, 8 ndipo awiriwa an'dzakhala thupi libodzi. Na tenepo ndiwo lini pomwe awiri, koma thupi libodzi. 9 Na tenepo bzomwe Mulungu waphatanidza, munthu aleke kubzilekanisa”.

10 Pomwe adapita m'nyumba, wakupfundzira adamubvundza Jezu bza nkhani imweire. 11 Iye adatawira kuti: “Omwe an'lamba mkazi wace acikalowola winango, ali kucita upombo kuna mkazi wace. 12 Bzibodzi-bodzimbo mkazi angalamba mwamuna wace, acikalowodwa na winango, na iyembo ali kucita upombo”.

13 Wanthu winango akhambabwera na wana kwa Jezu kuti awakhuye. Tsono wakupfundzira wace akhambawatsimula mwa ukali. 14 Jezu pomwe adawona bzimwebzire, adakalipa aciwauza kuti: “Alekeni wanawa abwere kwa Ine. Lekani kuwaletsa thangwe Umambo bwa Mulungu n'bwa wale wakulinganira na iwowa. 15 Cadidi ndiri kulewa kuti omwe an'bvuma lini Umambo bwa Mulungu ninga mwana, umweyo an'dzabupita lini”. 16 Na tenepo adayamba kuwakumbatira wana wale, aciwasandzika boko na kuwadalisa.

17 Pomwe Jezu akhaguduka, munthu wina adam'thamangira, acim'godamira kutsogolo kwace, acimubvundza kuti: “Apfundzisi wabwino, kodi ningacite ciyani kuti ndidzatambire moyo wakusaya kumala?” 18 Jezu adamutawira kuti: “Uli kundicemereranyi wabwino? Wabwino ni m'bodzi yekha, Mulungu basi. 19 Mitemo umbaidziwa: ‘Leka kupha, leka kucita upombo, leka kuba, leka kucita umboni bwakunama, leka kunamiza andzako, lemekeza baba wako na mai wako.’ ” 20 Munthu ule adati: “Mpfundzisi, bzentsenebzi nimbabziteweza kuyambira ndiri mwana”. 21 Jezu adamunyang'ana, na lufoyi acimuuza kuti: “Ciri kukusalira cinthu cibodzi, ndoko, ukagulise cuma centse. Kobiri zentse ukapase wanthu wakusauka, ndipo un'dzatambira cuma kudzulu. Patsogolo pace ubwere, udzanditewere”. 22 Pakubva bzimwebzi, nkhope yace idadodoma, ndipo adacoka na kuneseka mum'tima thangwe akhali munthu wa cuma cizinji. 23 Jezu adanyang'ana mbali mwace, aciuza wakupfundzira wace kuti: “N'bzakunesa kwene-kwene kuti wacuma akapite muUmambo bwa Mulungu!” 24 Wakupfundzira adadabwa na mafalayo. Tsono Jezu adabwerezera, aciti: “Wana wangu, n'bzakunesa kwene-kwene kukapita muUmambo bwa Mulungu! 25 N'bzakupusa kuti ngamira ipite pamubo wa ntsingano kuposa kuti munthu nyakudala akapite muUmambo bwa Mulungu”. 26 Pamwepo wakupfundzira adadabwa kwene-kwene acibvundzana kuti: “Kodi angapulumuke mbani?” 27 Jezu adawanyang'anisa aciti: “Kwa wanthu bzin'kwanisika lini, tsono kwa Mulungu n'tenepo lini, Kwa Mulungu bzentse n'bzakukwanisika”.

28 Pamwepo Pedru adayamba kumuuza iye, kuti: “Onani, ife tidasiya bzentse kuti tikutewereni”. 29 Jezu adatawira: “Cadidi ndiri kukuuzani imwe, kuti omwe an'siya nyumba, nkhosve, mpfumakazi, mai, baba, wana ayai minda thangwe ra Ine, ndipombo thangwe ra Mafala Yabwino, 30 umweyo pantsi pano an'dzatambira bzentse bzakuwanda kwene-kwene kusiyana na kale bzomwe ni, nyumba, nkhosve, mpfumakazi, mai, wana, minda, ndipombo matsautso. Ndipo kutsogolo an'dzatambira moyo wakusaya kumala. 31 Pamwepo azinji omwe ali wakuyamba an'dzakhala wakumalizira, wakumalizira an'dzakhala wakuyamba”.

32 Akhali paulendo bwa kuJerusalema, Jezu akhali patsogolo, wakupfundzira wace akhadabwa. Napombo wanthu omwe akhatewera akhana mantha. Ndipo adawacemera pomwe wakupfundzira khumi na awiriwo pambali, aciwafokotozera bzomwe bzin'dzamucitikira. 33 Adati: “Tiri paulendo bwa kuJerusalema. Kumweko Mwana-wa-Munthu ati akaperekedwe kwa akulu wa azibaba wa ntsembe na adziwi wa Mtemo. Iwo an'kamutonga na kupasa nyathwa kuti aphedwe. Ndipo an'kamupereka kwa wanthu wakunja. 34 Iwo an'kamusinjirira, acikamupsipira mata, acikamuchanga ndipo acikamupha. Zingadzapita ntsiku zitatu, Iye an'dzamuka”.

35 Tiyago na Juwau, wana wa Zebedeu, adafendera kwa iye aciti: “Mpfundsisi, comwe tinikukumbirani, muticitire”. 36 Jezu adabvundza kuti: “Mun'funa kuti ndikucitireni ciyani?” 37 Iwo adati: “Tin'funa kuti pomwe mun'dzakhala mumbiri yanu, mudzatiikhe m'bodzi kuboko lanu ladidi, wina ladzere”. 38 Tsono Jezu adati: “Mun'dziwa lini bzomwe muli kukumbira. Kodi imwe mungakwanise kumwera mkombo omwe ine nin'dzamwera? Ndipo imwe mungadzabatizidwe ninga momwe ine nin'dzabatizidwa?” 39 Iwo adatawira kuti: “Inde, tin'dzakwanisa”. Pamwepo Jezu adati: “Cadidi, mkombo omwe Ine nin'dzamwera, imwe mun'dzaumwerambo, ndipo mun'dzabatizidwa ninga ine. 40 Tsono Ine ni utongi lini bwangu kuikha munthu kuboko ladidi ayai ladzere. Mulungu ndiye adakondza mbutozo ndipo an'dzazipasa ali-yentse omwe iye angafune”.

41 Pomwe anango wale khumi adabva bzimwebzi, adakalipira Tiyago na Juwau. 42 Ndipo Jezu adawacemera kuti abwere pafupi na iye, adati: “Mun'dziwa kuti atongi wa madziko ambayakunda. Akulu-akulu wawombo ambawonesa mphambvu zawo kwa wanthu wawo. 43 Tsono pakati pa imwe bzileke kukhala tenepo. Omwe an'funa kukhala mkulu, atumikire andzace. 44 Ndipo omwe an'funa kukhala wakuyamba, akhale kapolo wa wentse. 45 Thangwe Mwana-wa-Munthu alibe kubwera kuti adzatumikiridwe koma kuti Iye adzatumikire wanthu na kupereka moyo wace kuti alombole azinji”.

46 Ndipo adafika kumzinda wa Jeriko. Pomwe akhacoka mumzinda ule na wakupfundzira wace, pabodzi na mthithi wa wanthu, adagumana zimola m'bodzi wakukumbira-kumbira akhadakhala mphepete mwa njira. Munthuyo dzina lace akhacemeredwa Balitimeu, mwana wa Timeu. 47 Pomwe iye adabva kuti ni Jezu wa kuNazalee, adakuwa aciti: “Jezu, Mwana wa Davidi, ndibvereni ntsisi!” 48 Wanthu azinji akhamutsimula mwa ukali kuti anyamale. Tsono iye adapitiriza kukuwa aciti: “Mwana wa David, ndibverenimbo ntsisi!” 49 Jezu adaima, aciwauza kuti: “Mucemereni”. Iwo adamucemera acimuuza kuti: “Limba m'tima, lamuka, ali kukucemera”. 50 Pamwepo iye adathusa kapote wace adamuka, acimoga, aciyenda kuna Jezu. 51 Jezu adamubvundza kuti: “Un'funa kuti ndikucitire ciyani?” Zimola ule adatawira kuti: “Mpfundzisi, nin'funa kuwona”. 52 Jezu adamuuza kuti: “Ndoko, cikhulupiriro cako cakulimbisa”. Nthawe ibodzi-bodziyo adayamba kuwona, ndipo adatewera Jezu munjira.
