1 “Mhela awo, undewa wa kilanga ufanda kota wahinza kumi waholile vimwemwesa vyao, waluta kumbochela mkasano. 2 Wahano wa hewo wali wapoka na wahano wanji wali na luhala. 3 Wala wapoka nawahola vimwemwesa vyao, ila hawaholile na mafuta ga kuwesela. 4 Ila wala wawele na luhala nawahola mibuli ja mafuta gawo hamwe na vimwemwesa vyao. 5 Kwa vila mkasano na kakawila kuya, wala wahinza weng'ha nawasinzila, wawasa. 6 Hagati ha nechilo kwali na iyowe, ‘Mwela yoo, mwela yoo! Mkasano kanguya mlute kumbochela.’ 7 Aho wala wahinza weng'ha walilimka, waviwika goya vimwemwesa vyao. 8 Wala wapoka wawalonjela wala wawele na luhala, ‘Mtujidile mafuta mado ga hemwe mina vimwemwesa vya hetwe vyanguzima.’ 9 Ila wala nawawele na luhala wawalonjela, ‘Hogotukwila hebu hetwe na hemwe! Igana mlute kowalinguguza mkegulile mwemwe!’ 10 Lelo, wala wahinza wapoka lowalutile kugula mafuta, mkasano nakafika. Wala wahinza nawawele goya wenjila hamwe na heye mli ng'handa ya mkasano, hamba lwizi luhindigwa. 11 Hamba wala wahinza wanji nawoya, wachema, ‘Mkulu, mkulu, tuchumulile!’ 12 Ila heye kawedichila, ‘Ndanguwalonjela ndikomya, siwazelele hemwe.’ ” 13 Hamba Yesu nakasinda kwa kulonga, “Lelo mikale meho, kwa vila hamzelele zuwa ne saa.

14 “Mhela awo Undewa wa Nguluwi wowa kota munhu yumwe yalingwinula majendo kuluta honhu hamwambu, nakawachema vitumagwa wa heye, wamlolele lufufu lwake. 15 Nakampa chila yumwe kota mong'ho wa heye vyouwele, yumwe kampa sendi mihako jihano, yunji mihako mili ja sendi na muyage mhako umwe wa sendi, hamba koka. 16 Lelo yula yapegwe sendi mihako jihano kakola mijito nazo kawa na chonjezeche mihako jihano jiyage. 17 Vivyo na yula yapegwe mihako mili, kazidita zonjezeka mihako mili jiyage. 18 Ila yula yapegwe mhako umwe, kaluta kabawa hasi, kaivisa ula mhako wa sendi za mkulu wa heye.

19 “Mhela loupulute, yula mkulu nakahiluka, nakaluka kukagula hisabu ya zowapatile na kutumiya sendi za heye. 20 Chitumagwa yapegwe migwala jihano nakoya yaholile migwala jihano jonjezeche, kamlonjela, ‘Mkulu, nakunipa migwala jihano, hano hana migwala jihano jiyage jonjezeche jomhatile.’ 21 Mkulu wa heye kamlonjela, ‘Goya, chitumagwa unojile na wakitumbila. Kunoga kuli mbuli ndodo, ndokudita uwe mlolezi wa mbuli zitanganiche. Uye usangalale hamwe na mkulu wa hegwe.’

22 “Chitumagwa yapegwe migwala mili ja sendi nakoya, kalonga, ‘Mkulu, nakunipa migwala mili. Uhole migwala mili jiyage zonjezeche zomhatile.’ 23 Mkulu wa heye kamlonjela, ‘Goya, chitumagwa unojile na wakitumbila. Kuwa wakitumbila kwa mbuli ndodo, ndokudita uwe ulolela mbuli zitanganiche. Uye usangalale hamwe na mkulu wa hegwe.’

24 “Ila yula yapegwe sendi igwala limwe nakoya, kalonga, ‘Mkulu, ndivizela hegwe kwa munhu yang'ang'ale, hegwe kubetaga hala hounyalile, na kukungajiza hala hosanzanze. 25 Nandumba, nandilivisa igwala lya hegwe hasi. Uhole lelo igwala lya hegwe.’

26 “Mkulu wa heye nakamlonjela, ‘Hegwe kwa chitumagwa wihile na mgata! Kuvizela kota heni sibetaga hala hosinyalile, na kukungajiza hala hosanzanze. 27 Naikugana lelo, kuuwika mhako wa sendi wa heni benji, naheni ndaholile mhako wa sendi wa heni na zila zonjezeche! 28 Lelo, msukuleni ayo mhako wa sendi namkampe yula yawele na mihako kumi. 29 Mina, yawele na chinhu kopegwa na konjezelwa. Ila yula yawele hela chinhu, na chila chidodo choyawele nacho choholigwa. 30 Na kwa mbuli ya ayu chitumagwa yawele hatanganiche, mlavyeni kunze kuli jiza! Ako kowa na chililo na kujejeda mizino.’

31 “Mhela Mwana wa munhu yawele Mndewa loyokuya kuli ukulu wa heye na wahilisi wa kilanga weng'ha hamwe na heye, aho kochikala mchanya mwa chigoda cha heye cha undewa chiukulu. 32 Isi zeng'ha zoting'hanika kumwando kwa heye, na heye kowabagula kota vila mdimi yalingubagula ming'holo na mhene. 33 Kowawika wanhu walingudita yaviganile Nguluwi nzingo ya kudilo kwa heye na wanhu wehile kowawika nzingo ya kumoso kwa heye.

34 “Hamba Mndewa kowalonjela wala wawele nzingo ya heye kudilo, ‘Muye hemwe mtambichizwe na Mhaza wa heni, bocheleni undewa muwichilwe kulawila kulumbigwa kwa isi. 35 Mina ndali na nzala, hemwe mingalila chilyo, ndali na ng'halu, hemwe mingalila mazi, ndali mjenzi hemwe mmbochela, 36 ndali mwazi, mnvaliza, ndali mtamwa, hemwe muya kundola, ndali mchinweng'ho hemwe muya kunjendela.’ 37 Aho, awo wanhu watanganiche womwidichila mndewa ‘Mkulu, hanili natukona uwele na nzala na hetwe tukigalila chilyo, au uwele na ng'halu na hetwe tukigalila mazi? 38 Hanili natukona uwele mjenzi na hetwe tukubochela hakaye hetu, au ulihela nguwo na hetwe tukuvaliza? 39 Hanili natukona uwele mtamwa au uwele mchinweng'ho na hetwe tuya kukujendela?’ 40 Mndewa kowedichila, ‘Ndanguwalonjelani ndikomya, chila chinhu chomumditile yumwe wa awa wang'holozangu wadodo, mnditila heni.’

41 “Hamba kowalonjela wala wehile wawele nzingo ya kumoso kwa heye, ‘Ucheni kumwando kwa heni hemwe mpanjilwe! Mlute kuli chiluli cha mazuwa gose ne kuduma yawichilwe Limazoga na wahilisi wa kilanga wa heye. 42 Ndali na nzala hemwe hamhele chilyo, ndali na ng'halu hemwe hamhele mazi. 43 Ndali mjenzi hemwe hammbochele, ndali mtamwa na mchinweng'ho hemwe hamuyile kundola.’

44 “Aho na hewo womwidichila, ‘Mkulu, hanili natukona uwele na nzala au ng'halu, uwele mjenzi au ulihela nguwo, na uwele mtamwa au ulimchinweng'ho, hetwe hatukuditile chinhu?’ 45 Na heye kowedichila, ‘Ndanguwalonjelani ndikomya, chila lomlemile kumditila mbuli azi yumwe wa wanhu awa wadodo, namlema kunditila heni.’ 46 Lelo, awa woluta kuli kugazigwa kwa mazuwa gose, ila wala watanganiche woluta kuli ukomu wa mazuwa gose ne kuduma.”
