Kuvumbuka kwa Yesu KilisitoLuk 2:1-7

18 Kuvumbuka kwa Yesu Kilisito kukalavino, Malia yafungiligwe zengele naYusufu, lakini wang'hali hawanakalahamoja kambambigalo na mtwanzi, Maliakoneka kana inda kwa udahi wa LohoYang'alile. 19 Kwavija Yusufu kakalamunhu yotenda ganogile, halondilekumgela kinyala Malia, avo kalondakumuleka kinyelegezi. 20 Viyakalilekogelegeza vivo, msenga wa kuulangawa Mndewa kamulawilila mzinzozi nakamulongela, “Yusufu mzukulu wa Daudi,sekeudumbe kumsola Malia yawe mwehewako, kwavija inda yake kaipata kwa udahiwa Loho Yang'alile. 21 Kolela mwana wakimbigalo na gweye komgwaa twaga daYesu, kwavija kowakombola wanhu zakemzinzambi zao.”

22 Gano gose gatendeka kutenda ga-longigwenaMndewa kubitilamtula ndaguwake galawilile, 23 “Mhambe kogoga inda,na kolela mwana wa kimbigalo, nao wom-kema Imanueli,” fambulo jake, “Mulungukahamoja na tweye.”

24 Avo Yusufu viyalamuke muutulo,kamsola Malia kamba viyalongeligwe naimsenga wa Mndewa. 25 Lakini hatembelenayo mbaka viyalelile mwana na Yusufukamgwaa twaga mwana ayo Yesu.

2Wageni walawile mwambu wa kudilawila

zuwa1 Yesu kavumbuka kudibuga da Besele-

hemu mwiisi ya Yudea, kipindi Helodeviyakalile Mndewa. Aho viyavumbukewanhu wayagwe wajuwile mbuli zanhondo weza kulawa mwambu wakudilawila zuwa wavika Yelusalemu.2 Wauza, “Kakwahi imwana yavumbukeyawe Mndewa wa Wayahudi? Kwavijatuyona nhondo yake kulawa mwambuwa kudilawila zuwa na tweye twizakumfugamila.”

3 Mndewa Helode viyahulike vivokanyawanyawa ng'hani na vivijakila munhu yakalile Yelusalemukanyawanyawa. 4 Kawakema hamoja

wakulu wa walava nhosa na wafundizaMalagizo ga Musa kawauza, “Vino KilisitoMkombola kovumbukila kwahi?”

5 Wamwidika, “Kovumbukila kudibugada Beselehemu mwiisi ya Yudea, vivoyandike mtula ndagu wa Mulungu,6 ‘Mweye wanhu wa Beselehemumwiisi ya

Yudea,buga jenu hadili dodo bule mna gamabuga

ga Yuda,kwavija kumwenu kolawa mulanguliziyonda yawalongoze wanhu zangu wa

Izilaeli.’ ”7 Avo Helode kawakema kinyelegezi

wanhu waja wojuwa mbuli za nhondokawauza kipindi gani nhondo viyoneke.8 Abaho kawatuma wachole Beselehemuna kuwalagiza, “Choleni mkazahile goyakuyali imwana, mwahamona nongeleni,nanie vivija nichole nikamfugamile.”

9 Viwamalile kumtegeleza, walawanya,mnzila wayona nhondo iija iwayonemwambu wa kudilawila zuwa, iwalon-golela na kwima hanhu aho kuyavum-buke imwana. 10 Viwayone inhondo,wadeng'helela ng'hani. 11 Avo wengilamng'anda, wamona imwana na Maliamamake, wamfugamila na kumtambikila.Abaho wamgwaa nhunza za zahabu,mavumba na mavuta ga bei ng'hulugokemigwa manemane.

12 Abaho wabwela ukayao kwa kubitilanzila iyagwe, kwavija Mulungu kawazumamzinzozi sekewabwele kwa Helode.

Kukimbilila Misili13 Viwasegele msenga wa Mndewa ka-

mulawilila Yusufu mzinzozi kamulongela,“Helode komzahila imwana yamkome.Avo lamuka umsole imwana na mamakemkimbilile Misili, na mukale kuko mbakavonda nikulongele usegele.”

14 Yusufu kalamuka, kamsola imwanana mamake kasegela ikilo acho na ku-chola Misili, 15 kakala ako mbaka Helodeviyafile. Gano gatendigwa kutenda achokiyalongile Mndewa kubitila mtula ndagukilawilile, “Nimkema mwanangu kulawaMisili.”

Kukomigwa kwa wana16 Helode viyajuwile kamba wanhu wa-

cholile kumulola Yesu kulawa mwambuwa kudilawila zuwawamvizila, kagevuzikang'hani. Kalava lagizo da kuwakomawana wose wa kimbigalo weli Besele-hemu na hiwo weli behi, kusongela wana

Matayo 2:17 3 Matayo 4:3ving'hele mbaka wana weli na miyaka mi-bili ino itendigwa kamba viyajuwile ku-lawa kwa wanhu wacholile kumulola Yesumna ikipindi viwayone inhondo.

17 Kwa mbuli ino kilawilila kija kiya-longile Yelemia yakalile mtula ndagu waMulungu,18 “Sauti ihulikigwa mwiisi ya Lama,kulila na kuiyalala ng'hani.Laheli kowalilila wanagenayo kolema kuhozigwa,kwavija wafa.”

Kusegela Misili19 Helode viyafile, msenga wa Mndewa

kamulawilila Yusufu mzinzozi mwiisi yaMisili, 20 kamulongela, “Lamuka umsoleimwana na mamake, na ubweleganye mnaiisi ya Izilaeli, kwavija wose walondilekumkoma imwana wafa.” 21 Avo Yusufukalamuka, kamsola imwana namamake nakabweleganya mwiisi ya Izilaeli.

22 Lakini Yusufu viyahulike Alikelaomwanage Helode, kahala Undewa watatake ako Yudea, kadumba kuchola kuko,kwavija kazumigwa ng'hani mzinzozi. Avokachola mwiisi ya Galilaya. 23 Kahamilakudibuga da Nazaleti keka ukazi wakekuko. Avo kilawilile kija kiwalongilewatula ndagu wa Mulungu, “KokemigwaMnazaleti.”

3Yohana Mbatizaji kowapetela wanhuMlk 1:1-8; Luk 3:1-18; Yoh 1:19-28

1Mna izisiku azo Yohana Mbatizaji kezakuluwala lwa Yudea, kasonga kuwapetelawanhu. 2 Kawalongela, “Lekeni nzambizenu kwavija Undewa wa kuulangawammabehi!” 3 Ayo Yohana, ayo munhuyalongigwe na mtula ndagu wa MulunguIsaya,“Munhu imoja kokema kuluwala,‘Itandeni nzila ya Mndewa,goloseni nzila yake yonda yabite!’ ”

4 Kiwalo cha Yohana kitendigwa kwamibahila ya ngamiya, na kavala mkwiji wang'hwembe mkigudi chake. Lujo lwakelukala nzige na uki. 5Wanhu wamcholelakulawa Yelusalemu, na isi yose ya Yudeana kulawa isi zose zilihabehi na lwandalwa Yolidani. 6 Watogola hewo watendanzambi na Yohana kawabatizamuulwandalwa Yolidani.

7 Yohana viyawone Mafalisayo naMasadukayo wengi womwizila yawa-batize, kawalongela, “Mweye mizokanani yawalongele modaha kuikimbilanhaguso yonda igaligwe na Mulungu?8 Musang'hane gaja gonda galagusemuzileka nzambi zenu. 9 Sekemugesekwa kulonga kamba Abulahamu heyomuhenga wetu. Nowalongela Mulungukodaha kugasola mabwe gano nakugatenda lukolo lwa Abulahamu!10 Shoka ikigwa goya kukanha mibikimna gamasina. Kila mbiki uleka kulelamatunda ganogile wokanhigwa nakwasigwa muumoto. 11 Niye nowabatizamweye kwa mazi kulagusa muzilekanzambi zenu. Lakini yonda yeze kukisogochangu kowabatiza kwa LohoYang'alile nakwa moto, heyo ni munhu mkulu kubanzanene, niye sifaya hata kupapa vilatu vake.12 Ayo kana lungo lwa kubetela uhulemmakono gake. Nayo kousola uhembawakena kuwika kudikanho, lakini koisomaimikumvi muumoto haufaga.”

Kubatizigwa kwa YesuMlk 1:9-11; Luk 3:21-22

13Mna izisiku azo Yesu kasegela kulawaGalilaya kachola kuna ulwanda lwa Yoli-dani yakabatizigwe na Yohana. 14 LakiniYohana kalonda kumgomesa Yesu, ka-longa, “Niye nolondeka nibatizigwe nagweye, habali wiza kumwangu?”

15 Yesu kamwidika, “Leka sambi iwevivo kwavija kwakutenda vivo togatendagaja gose golondigwa na Mulungu.” AvoYohana katogola.

16 Bahaja Yesu viyabatizigwe, kalawamgamazi, ulanga ugubuka, na kamonaLoho wa Mulungu kohumuluka kambahuwa na kakala uchanha yake. 17 Abahosauti ihulikigwa kulawa kuulanga ilonga,“Ino heyo mwanangu nimnogele, nino-gezigwa nayo.”

4Kugezigwa kwa YesuMlk 1:12-13; Luk 4:1-13

1 Abaho Loho Yang'alile kamulongozaYesu yachole kuluwala yakagezigwe naMwenembago. 2Kakala kuko sikumalongomane imisi na ikilo bila kuja. Viyamam-bukize siku azo, Yesu kona nzala. 3 AbahoMwenembago kamcholela kamulongela,“Kamba gweye kwa Mwana wa Mulungu

Matayo 4:4 4 Matayo 5:5kweli galagize mabwe gano gagaluke ma-gate.”

4 Lakini Yesu kamwidika, “MaandikoGang'alile golonga, ‘Munhu hawa mgimakwa kuja kwiiyeka, lakini kwa kila mbuliyoolonga Mulungu.’ ”

5 Abaho Mwenembago kamsola Yesumbaka Yelusalemu buga ding'alile,kamwika mna ikiswili cha Ing'anda yaMulungu. 6 Abaho kamulongela Yesu,“Kamba kweli gweye kwa Mwana waMulungu, ilagaze mwenyego hasi, kwavijaMaandiko Gang'alile golonga,‘Mulungu kowalagiza wasenga zakewa ku-

ulanga mbuli ya gweye,nao wokusola mmakono gao,sekeuilumize magulu gako mgamabwe.’ ”

7 Yesu kamwidika, “Vivija MaandikoGang'alile golonga, ‘Sekeumgeze MndewaMulungu wako.’ ”

8 Abaho Mwenembago kamsola Yesumbaka uchanha ng'hani kuna ulugongolutali na kamulagusila undewa wa mwiisiyose na unovu wake. 9 Mwenembago ka-mulongela, “Vino vose nokugwaa, kambawahanifugamila na kunitambikila.”

10 Yesu kamulongela, “Segelakumwangu Mwenembago! KwavijaMaandiko Gang'alile golonga, ‘Mtam-bikile Mndewa Mulungu wako, naumsang'hanile heyo yaiyeka!’ ”

11 Baho Mwenembago kamulekaYesu, na wasenga wa kuulanga wezawamsang'hanila.

Yesu kosonga sang'hano yake akoGalilaya

Wakala Si-moni yakemigwe Petulo na mdodo wakeAndeleya, wakala wovuwa somba mna dil-amba na mizavu yao. 19Yesu kawalongela,“Nikwelelezeni na niye nowatenda muwewavuwaji wa wanhu.” 20 Bahaja wailekamizavu yao, wamkweleleza.

28 Petulo kamulongela, “Lola, tweyetuleka kila kinhu na tukukweleleza gw-eye.”

29 Yesu kawedika, “Nowalongela kweli,munhu yoyose yalekile ng'anda yake hebundugu zake hebu lumbu zake hebu ma-make hebu tatake hebu wanage hebu mi-gunda mbuli ya niye na kwaMbuli Inogile,30 kobokela vingi ng'hani mna ikipindicha sambi. Na kobokela ng'hani miyanzagana, ng'anda na ndugu na lumbu na

Kila mbiki ulekakulela matunda ganogile wokanhigwa nakwasigwa muumoto.”

Nayo kawalongela, “Sekemumbokemunhu yoyose sente yake hebu seke-mumtaguse munhu yoyose kwa uvizi.Mutosheke na kija kimubokela.”

15 Wanhu wakala wobetela kwiza kwaMkombola, avo wasonga kuiuza mmizoyoyao kamba Yohana kodaha kuwa ayo Kil-isito Mkombola. 16 Yohana kawalon-gela wose, “Niye nowabatiza mweye kwamazi, lakini kokwiza ija yeli munhu mkulung'hani kubanza niye.

5 Simoni kamwidika, “Go mkulu,tusang'hana ng'hani kilo kigima lakinihatupatile kinhu bule. Lakini kambagweye kolonga avo, nogela mizavuyangu mgamazi.” 6 Wapigisa mizavuyao, somba wengi wanamata mbakamizavu yao ilonda kudegeka. 7 Avowawakema wayao wakalile mwiingalawaiyagwe weze kuwataza.

14 Lakini mkulu wa ng'anda ya kumpulaMulungu kagevuzika kwavija Yesu ka-muhonya munhu mwiisiku ya Kubwihila.Avo kawalongela wanhu, “Mnazo siku sitaza kusang'hana. Mzisiku azo, mwizemuhonyigwe, lakini sekemwize kudisikuda Kubwihila!”

15 Mndewa kamwidika, “Mweye mwawanafiki!

Yesu koinogela YelusalemuMat 23:37-39

31 Kipindi kikija Mafalisayo wayagwewamcholela Yesu, wamulongela, “Segelahanhu hano uchole hanhu hayagwe,kwavija Helode kolonda kukukoma.”

14Yesu komuhonya munhu mtamu

1Mwiisiku imoja ya Kubwihila, Yesu ka-chola kuja lujo mng'anda ya mkulu imojawa Mafalisayo, wanhu wakala womulolagoya Yesu. 2 Munhu imoja yakalile nautamu wa kuvimba lukuli keza kwa Yesu.3 Yesu kawauza wafundiza Malagizo gaMusa na Mafalisayo, “Vino, vinoga ku-muhonya munhu mwiisiku ya Kubwihilahebu havinogile bule?”

4 Lakini wao hawalongile mbuli yoyosebule. Yesu kamsola mtamu ija, kamuho-nya, abaho kamuleka yachole. 5 Abahokawauza, “Vino nani kumwenu yeli namwana hebu ng'ombe, yahadumbukilamdikolombo mwiisiku ya Kubwihila,hamulava mwiisiku ayo?”

6 Lakini wao hawadahile kumwidikambuli ino.

Uhole na moyo unogile7 Yesu kawona wanhu waja wag-

12 Abaho Yesu kamulongela ija yam-goneke, “Kamba kowatanda wanhu lujolwa imisi hebu lwa ichungulo, sekeuwag-oneke mbwiga zako, hebu ndugu zako,hebu matajili hebu wanhu welibehi nagweye. Kwavija wahatenda avo, waonao wokugoneka na avo wokulipa vija vi-uwatendele wao. 13 Lakini kamba wa-hatenda nyimwili nyimwili, wagonekewakiwa,, mbetembete, waholole, na wajawasuwameso, 14na gweye kotambikiligwa,kwavija awohawadaha kukulipa.

Mbuli Inogile yandikigwe na Yohanaya mumkumbo wa vitabu vine va laganoda sambi, vitabu avo volagusa vija Yesuviyakalile hano mwiisi. Kila kitabu achochokemigwa, “Injili,” fambulo jake MbuliInogile. Vitabu avo vandikigwa na Matayona Maluko na Luka na Yohana kipindiYesu viyafile na kuzilibuka. Mbuli In-ogile yandikigwe na Yohana yogesigwakamba yandikigwa na mtumigwa Yohanabehi ya mwaka wa 90 toka kuvumbukakwa Kilisito. Hamoja kitabu chenyegohakilonga kamba Yohana ayo mwandikaji,lakini wandikaji wa kitabu kino uigala nabaluwa ya 1 Yohana na 2 Yohana na 3Yohana. Wandikaji wa umwaka wogesakamba Yohana kakala yokala kudibuga daEfeso kipindi acho, avo yogesigwa kambaikitabu chandikiligwa kuko Efeso.

Yohana kolonga kinaganaga ikilamusocha kwandika ikitabu kino, kuwatazawanhu watogole kamba Yesu ayo KilisitoMwana wa Mulungu yeli mgima nakwa kutogola ako tupate ugima kubitilatwaga jake (Sula ya 20:31). Kitabu kinowandikiligwa wanhu wose, Wayahudikwa wanhu haweli Wayahudi. MbuliInogile yandikigwe na Yohana haiigalileng'hani na ivitabu viyagwe vidatu vaMbuli Inogile. Heyo kandika ng'hanimbuli za unzonza ziyatendile Yesu nahandike ng'hani mbuli za simo.

Mbuli igala ugima1 Baho kunaichanduso vinhu vose

ving'hali havinaumbigwa kukala imojayakemigwe Mbuli. Ayo kakala naMulungu na ayo kakala Mulungu. 2 Tokakunaichanduso Mbuli kakala hamojana Mulungu. 3 Kubitila heyo, Mulungukaumba vinhu vose. Kuduhu kinhuchochose kiumbigwe bila heyo. 4 Mgatimmwake mumo ukalile mwanduso waugima, na ugima awo ukala mulenge kwawanhu. 5Mulenge awo wokwaka mdiziza,najo ziza hadiudaha kuuzima bule.

6 Kulawilila munhu imoja yatumigwena Mulungu, twaga jake Yohana. 7 Ayokeza kuwalongela wanhu mbuli ya umu-lenge muladi wanhu wose wahulike nawatogole. 8 Heyo mwenyego hakalile awoumulenge bule, lakini keza kuwalongelawanhu mbuli ya umulenge. 9 Uno ukalamulenge kweli, mulenge wizile mwiisikuwamwemwesela wanhu wose.

10Mbuli kakala mwiisi, na kubitila heyoMulungu kaumba isi yose, lakini wanhuwa mwiisi hawamjuwile bule. 11 Kezamwiisi yakemwenyego, lakini wanhu zakemwenyego hawambokele bule. 12 Lakiniwaja wambokele na kumtogola, Mulungukawatogolela kuwa wanage. 13 Si wanawa Mulungu bule kwa kuleligwa, hebuviwolondawanhuhebu kwa udahiwambi-galo yoyose, lakini Mulungu mwenyegoheyo Tatao.

14 Na heyo yakemigwe Mbuli kawamunhu, kakala hamoja na tweye, na tweyetuwona ukulu wake, ukulu uyagweleligwena Mulungu Tatake, nayo kamemang'hekewa na ukweli.

15 Yohana kalava usindila uno yolonga,“Ino ayo iniwalongeleni kokwiza kukisogochangu yeli mkulu kubanza niye, kwavijakakala kuko toka umwaka niye sinavum-buka.”

16 Kwa ng'hekewa imemile iyalinayo,tweye wose tumweda ng'hani. 17Mulungukalava Malagizo kubitila Musa, lakini YesuKilisito katugalila ng'hekewa na ukweli.18 Kuduhu munhu yamonile Mulungu,lakini Imwana yaiyeka yaigalile na Mu-lungu na kuilumba na Tata, ayo yatu-tendile tumjuwe Mulungu.

19 Wakulu wa Wayahudi kudibuga daYelusalemu wawatuma walava nhosa naWalawi wachole kwa Yohana wakamuuze,“Gweye kwa nani?”

20 Yohana halemile bule kuwedika,lakini kalonga fulu ipile, “Niye sili KilisitoMkombola.”

21 Wamuuza, “Gweye kwa nani? KwaEliya?”

Yohana kawedika, “Ka, sili Eliya bule.”Wamuuza, “Gweye kwa mtula ndagu wa

Mulungu?”Kawedika, “Ka, sili niye.”22 Wamulongela, “Tulongele, gweye

kwa nani? Tolonda tukawedike wajawatutumile. Vino gweye mwenyegokoikemaze?”

23 Yohana kawedika kwa kulonga gajagayalongile mtula ndagu wa MulunguIsaya,“Niye na ‘imoja yokema kuluwala.Tendeni goya nzila ya Mndewa, goloseni

nzila yonda yabite!’ ”24Wasenga waja watumigwe na kibum-

bila cha Mafalisayo 25 wamuuza Yohana,“Kumbe gweye huli Kilisito, hebu huliEliya, hebu huli mtula ndagu waMulungu,habali kobatiza wanhu?”

26 Yohana kawedika, “Niye nowabatizamweye kwa mazi, lakini kabaho imojakema hagati yenu, mweye hamumjuwilebule. 27 Kokwiza kukisogo changu, lakininiye sifaya hata kudohola nzabi za vilatuvake.”

28 Mbuli zose zino zilongigwa ako Be-tania mwambu wa kudilawila zuwa walwanda lwa Yolidani, kuyakalile Yohanayobatiza wanhu.

Yesu ayo Mwanang'hondolo wa Mulungu29 Imitondo yake Yohana kamona

Yesu komwizila, kalonga, “Loleni,Mwanang'hondolo wa Mulungu yosegezanzambi za wanhu wa mwiisi! 30 Ino ayoinilongile mbuli zake, ‘Kokwiza munhukukisogo changu yeli munhu mkulukubanza nene, kwavija kakala kuko tokaumwaka niye sinavumbuka.’ 31 Niyemwenyego simjuwile viyali, lakini nizakuwabatiza kwa mazi muladi kutendayajuwigwe na wanhu wa Izilaeli.”

32 Yohana kalava usindila kwa kulonga,“Nimona Loho Yang'alile kohumuluka ku-ulanga kamba huwa na kwima uchanha

yake. 33 Niye nikala sijuwile kamba ayoheyo, lakini Mulungu, yanhumile kuwaba-tiza kwa mazi kanongela, ‘Munhu yondaumone Loho Yang'alile komuhumulukilakulawa kuulanga na kwima uchanha kwamunhu ayo, heyo ayo yonda yawabatizekwa Loho Yang'alile.’ ” 34 Abaho Yohanakalonga, “Nichona kinhu acho, na nowa-longeleni ukweli, heyo ayoMwana waMu-lungu.”

Wanahina wa ichanduso wa Yesu35 Imitondo yake, Yohana kakala ka-

bili hanhu aho na wanahina zake wabili.36Viyamone Yesu kobita, kalonga, “Loleni,ino ayo Mwanang'hondolo wa Mulungu!”

37 Wanahina awo wabili viwamuhulikeYohana kolonga avo, wamkweleleza Yesu.38Yesu kahinduka, kawonawomkweleleza,kawauza, “Mozahila choni?”

Wamwidika, “Labi, kokala kwahi?” Labifambulo jake, “Mfundiza.”

39Kawalongela, “Izoni mulole.” Avo wa-chola hamoja nayo na kuhona hayakalileyokala. Ikala saa kumi ya imisi, na wasindanayo.

40 Andeleya, ndugu yake Simoni Petulo,kakala imoja wa awo iwabili wamuhulikeYohana na kumkweleleza Yesu. 41 BahajaAndeleya viyamone Simoni ndugu yake,kamulongela, “Tumona Masihi.” Masihifambulo jake “Kilisito Mkombola.”42 Abaho Andeleya kamgala Simoni kwaYesu.

Yesu kamulola, kamulongela, “Twagajako Simoni mwanage Yohana, lakinikokemigwa Kefa.” Kefa kwa KigilikiPetulo, na Petulo fambulo jake dibwe.

Yesu komkema Filipo na Nasanaeli43 Imitondo yake Yesu kachola isi ya

Galilaya, kamvika Filipo, kamulongela,“Ng'holeleze!” 44 Filipo kakala mwenekaewa Betisaida kudibuga diwakalile An-deleya na Petulo. 45 Filipo kamvikaNasanaeli, kamulongela, “Tumonamunhuayo yandikigwe na Musa mna ikitabu chaMalagizo, na watula ndagu wa Mulunguwengi wandika mbuli zake. Heyo Yesumwanage Yusufu, mwenekae wa Naza-leti.”

46 Nasanaeli kamuuza, “Vino mbuliyoyose inogile yodaha kulawa kudibuga daNazaleti?”

Filipo kamwidika, “Izo ulole.”

Yohana 1:47 105 Yohana 2:2547 Yesu viyamone Nasanaeli komwizila,

kasimulila, “Ino Mwiizilaeli kweli, mgatiyake mduhu uvizi!”

48 Nasanaeli kamuuza, “Vino gweyekunjuwaze?”

Yesu kamwidika, “Filipo yang'halihanakukema viukalile hasi hana umbikiwa mtini, niye nikona.”

49 Nasanaeli kedika, “Mfundiza, gweyekwa Mwana wa Mulungu! Gweye kwaMndewa wa Izilaeli!”

50 Yesu kamulongela Nasanaeli, “Vinokotogola kwavija nikulongela nikonaviukalile hana umbiki wa mtini? Kokwizakuvona vinhu vingi ng'hani kubanzavino!” 51 Yesu kawalongela, “Nowalon-geleni ukweli, mouwona ulanga ugubukana wasenga wa kuulanga wokwela nakuhumuluka uchanha ya Mwana waMunhu.”

2Zengele kudibuga da Kana

1 Siku da kadatu kukala na zengelekudibuga da Kana mwiisi ya Galilaya.Mamake Yesu kakala aho, 2 Yesu nawanahina zake vivija wagonekigwakudizengele. 3 Divai viimalile, mamakekamulongela Yesu, “Divai imala.”

4Yesu kamwidika, “Mama, habali unon-gela vivo. Saa yangu hainavika.”

5Abahomamake Yesu kawalongelawajawasang'hanaji, “Chochose chonda yawa-longele sang'haneni.”

6 Kukala na nongo sita za mabwe, kilanongo yomema madumu matano, zikigwaaho kamba viikalile mila ya Wayahudiya kunawa. 7 Yesu kawalongela awoiwasang'hanaji, “Memezeni mazi nongozose.” Nao wazimemeza mbaka uchanha.8 Abaho Yesu kawalongela, “Dehenikidogo mumgalile mkulu wa dizengele.”Nao wamgalila. 9 Mkulu wa dizengeleviyagalanzile gaja gamazi, gagalukadivai. Hajuwile kuilawile, lakini wajaiwasang'hanaji wadehile gamazi wajuwa.Avo mkulu wa dizengele kamkemaayo yosola mwehe, 10 kamulongela,“Kila munhu kagolaga divai inogilehana ichanduso. Wanhu wagonekigwewahang'wang'hani, kolava divai igwadukewang'we, lakini gweye kuika divai inogilembaka sambi!”

11 Yesu kasang'hana unzonza uno waichanduso ako Kana mwiisi ya Galilaya.

Kuko kalagusa ukulu wake, na wanahinazake wamtogola.

12 Vigabitile gago, Yesu hamoja na ma-make, ndugu zake, na wanahina zake wa-chola kudibuga da Kapelinaumu wakalaaho siku ndodo.

Yesu kokwingila Mng'anda ya MulunguMat 12:12-13; Mlk 11:15-17; Luk 19:45-46

13 Siku da Pasaka ya Wayahudi dikalabehi, avo Yesu kachola Yelusalemu.14Kawavika wanhu Mng'anda ya Mulunguwochuuza ng'ombe, ng'hondolo, njiwa,na wayagwe wakala mmeza wovunjasente. 15 Yesu kabota balati da luzabi,kawawinga wose ng'hondolo, ng'ombe,na vivija kazibidula meza za wanhuwakalile wovunja sente na kuzipwililisasente zao. 16 Abaho kawalongela wosewakalile wochuuza njiwa, “Wasegezenihano! Lekeni kuitenda ng'anda yaTatangu kamba gulilo!” 17Wanahina zakewakumbuka kamba Maandiko Gang'alilegolonga, “Unogelwa wangu wa ng'andayako yakutambikila, wosoma mgatimmwangu kamba moto.”

18Wakulu wa Wayahudi wamuuza Yesu,“Vino unzonza gani wonda utende kutula-gusila gweye kuna udahi wa kutenda ganogose?”

19 Yesu kawedika, “Tuleni Ng'anda inoya Mulungu, na niye noizenga kabili kwasiku ndatu.”

20Wayahudi wamuuza, “Ng'anda ino yaMulungu izengigwa kwa miyaka malongomane na sita. Vino, gweye koizenga kwasiku ndatu?”

21 Lakini Ng'anda ya Mulunguiyakalile yolonga Yesu ikala lukulilwake. 22 Viyazilibuke kulawa kwa wafile,wanahina zake wakumbuka kamba Yesukawalongela mbuli ayo, wanahina zakewagatogola Maandiko Gang'alile na gajagayalongile Yesu.

Yesu na Nikodemo1 Kukala na mulangulizi imoja wa

Wayahudi twaga jake Nikodemo, kakalaimoja mna ikibumbila cha Mafalisayo.2 Siku dimoja ikilo kamcholela Yesuna kumulongela, “Labi, tojuwa gweyekwa mfundiza kutumigwa na Mulungu.Kwavija kuduhu munhu yodaha kutendaunzonza kamba viutenda gweye kambaMulungu hali hamoja nayo.”

3Yesu kamwidika, “Nokulongela ukweli,kuduhu munhu yodaha kuwona Undewawa Mulungu bila kuleligwa mwanza wakabili.”

4 Nikodemo kamuuza, “Vino munhumkulu kodahaze kuleligwa mwanza wakabili? Havidahika bule munhu mkulukwingila mna iinda ya mamake nakuleligwa mwanza wa kabili!”

5 Yesu kamwidika, “Nokulongelaukweli, kuduhu munhu yodaha kwingilaMuundewa wa Mulungu bila kuleligwakwamazi na kwa Loho Yang'alile. 6Munhukoleligwa kwa lukuli na tatake namamake,lakini koleligwa kiloho na Loho Yang'alile.7 Sekeukanganye kwavija nokulongelamolondeka mweye mose muleligwemwanza wa kabili. 8 Beho dobuma kokosekudilonda, kodihulika, lakini hudijuwadolawa kwahi hebu dochola kwahi. Vivoviili kwa munhu yoyose yaleligwe na LohoYang'alile.”

9 Nikodemo kauza, “Avo gano go-dahikaze?”

10 Yesu kamwidika, “Gweye kwa mfun-diza mkulu wa Waizilaeli, huijuwile vilihimbuli ino? 11Nokulongela ukweli, tolongakija tukijuwile tosimulila acho tuchonile,lakini haduhu munhu yoyose kumwenuyotogola usenga wetu. 12 Hamnhogolaviniwalongelenimbuli zamumunomwiisi,vino monhogolaze nahawalongela mbuliza ako kuulanga? 13 Kuduhu munhuyoyose yacholile kuulanga ila Mwana waMunhu, yezile kulawa kuko.”

14 Kamba Musa viyamwinule mumbikinyoka wa shaba kuja kuluwala, vivovonda yenuligwe Mwana wa Munhu,15 avo munhu yoyose yonda yamtogoleyawe na ugima wa mazuwa gose. 16 Avo,Mulungu kawanogela wanhu wa mwiisimbaka kamulava Mwanage yeli yaiyeka,muladi munhu yoyose yonda yamtogolesekeyapotele lakini yawe na ugima wa

25 Wanahina wayagwe wa Yohana wa-songa kuibamilila na Muyahudi mbuli yajadi ya kunawa ili wamtambikile Mu-lungu. 26 Avo wamcholela Yohana na ku-mulongela, “Mfundiza, vino komkumbukamunhu ija yuukalile nayo mwambu wakudilawila zuwa wa lwanda lwa Yolidani,ija yuulongile mbuli zake? Hambe sambikobatiza na kila munhu komcholela!”

27 Yohana kawedika, “Kuduhu munhuyodaha kuwa na kinhu chochose kambaMulungu hamgwelele. 28Mweye wenyegoawo wasindila zangu kamba nonga, ‘Niyesili Kilisito Mkombola, lakini nhumigwanimulongolele.’ 29 Mtwanzi yosoligwa niwa mbigalo yosola. Lakini mbwiga wambigalo yosola, yemile na kutegeleza, ko-deng'helela yahahulika sauti ya mbigaloyosola. Vivo ili kumwangu, deng'ho jangudivika. 30Heyo kolondeka yawe mkulu naniye niwe mdodo.”

Heyo yezile kulawa kuulanga31 Heyo yolawa uchanha ni mkulu

4Yesu kolonga na mtwanzi wa Kisamalia

1 Mafalisayo wahulika kamba Yesukakala kopata na kobatizawanahinawengikubanza Yohana, 2 lakini ukweli Yesuhambatize munhu yoyose ila wanahinazake wao wabatize. 3 Yesu viyahulike avo,kasegela mwiisi ya Yudea na kubwelamwiisi ya Galilaya. 4 Mmwanza wakekalondeka yabitile Samalia.

5 Kavika mwiisi ya Samalia kudibugada Sikali, behi na mgunda wa Yakobouyamgwelele mwanage yakemigweYusufu. 6 Hanhu aho kukala na sima daYakobo. Yesu viyadonhile na mwanzamtali, kakala aho kudisima. Ikala imisi.

7 Mtwanzi wa kisamalia keza kudehamazi. Yesu kamulongela, “Nigwelelemazi ning'we.” 8 Kipindi acho wanahinazake wakala wacholile kudibuga kugulachakuja.

9 Mtwanzi ayo kamwidika, “Gweyekwa Muyahudi na niye na Msamalia.Kodahaze kumhula mazi ga kung'wa?”Kwavija Wayahudi hawajaga hamoja naWasamalia.

10 Yesu kamwidika, “Maza ujuwilechoolava Mulungu, na maza ujuwile naniyokupula mazi ga kung'wa, wahampulile,nayo yahakugwelele mazi gogala ugima.”

11 Mtwanzi ayo kamulongela, “Gomkulu, gweye kuduhu doo, na sima dinodingila ng'hani. Wahagapatile kwahimazi gago gogala ugima? 12 Vino gweyekwa mkulu kubanza tata yetu Yakoboyatugwelele sima dino? Heyo mwenyegohamoja na wanage na fugo yake yosewang'wa mazi ga mdisima dino!”

13 Yesu kamwidika, “Wanhu wosewong'wamazi gano wokona ng'hilu kabili,14 lakini munhu yoyose yong'wa mazigonda nimgwelele, honda yaone ng'hilu

15Mtwanzi ayo kalonga, “Gomkulu, nig-weemazi gagomuladi sekeniwe na ng'hilukabili, na ndeke kwiza hano kudehamazi.”

16 Yesu kamulongela, “Genda kamkememkasano wako, na wize nayo.”

17 Mtwanzi ayo kamwidika, “Naduhumkasano.”

Yesu kamulongela, “Kulonga goyakuduhu mkasano. 18 Kusoligwa nawakasano watano, na mbigalo yuukalanayo sambi siyo mkasano wako. Kunon-gela goya.”

19 Mtwanzi ayo kalonga, “Go mkulu,vinikona gweye kwa mtula ndagu.20 Wahenga zetu wamtambikila Mulungukuna ulugongo luno, lakini mweyeWayahudi molonga Yelusalemu ahohanhu holondeka tumtambikile Mu-lungu.”

21 Yesu kamulongela, “Mama, togolagano gonikulongela, kipindi chokwizabaho wanhu honda wamtambikile Tatakuna ulugongo luno hebu ako Yelusalemu.22 Mweye Wasamalia hamumjuwilegoya ayo imumtambikila, lakini tweyeWayahudi tumjuwa itumtambikila,kwavija ukombozi wolawa kwa Wayahudi.23 Lakini kipindi chokwiza na sambichabahano, aho awo wotambikagakweli, womtambikila Tata kwa lohona kweli, kwavija Tata kolonda wanhuwomtambikila kamba vivo. 24 Mulunguni Loho, avo wanhu womtambikilawolondeka wamtambikile kwa loho nakweli.”

25Mtwanzi ayo kamulongela Yesu, “No-juwa Mkombola kokwiza, yokemigwa Kil-isito, yaheza kotulongela mbuli zose.”

26 Yesu kamwidika, “Iyo nene, inilongana gweye.”

27 Kipindi acho wanahina zakeYesu wabwela, wakanganya ng'haniviwamvikile Yesu kolonga na mtwanziayo. Lakini kuduhu imoja wao yamuuzilemtwanzi ayo, “Kolonda choni?” hebuyamuuze Yesu, “Habali kolonga namtwanzi ino?”

28 Abaho mtwanzi ayo kaleka nongoyake ya mazi, kabweleganya kudibuga nakuwalongela wanhu, 29 “Izoni mumulolemunhu yanongele gaja gose ganhendile.Vino hadaha kuwa Kilisito Mkombola?”

33Avo wanahina wasonga kuiuza, “Vinohana munhu kamgalila chakuja?”

34 Yesu kawalongela, “Ujaji wangu,ni kutenda goyolonda ija yanhumile nakuimambukiza sang'hano iyanigwelele.35 Mweye mulongaga vino, ‘Ing'halimiezi mine tosonga kusenga.’ Lakininowalongeleni, inuleni meso genu mulolemmigunda!

39 Wasamalia wengi wa buga dijawamtogola Yesu kwa gaja gayalongile mt-wanzi ayo, “Kanongela gose ganhendile.”40 Avo Wasamalia viwamcholele Yesu,wampula yakale nao. Yesu kakala nao sikumbili.

41 Wanhu wengi watogola mbuli yausenga wa Yesu. 42Wamulongela mtwanziayo, “Sambi totogola, siyo mbuli ya gajagaulongile gaiyeka, lakini tweye wenyegotumuhulika, na tojuwa heyo ayo Mkom-bola wa wanhu wa mwiisi yose.”

46 Yesu kachola kabili kudibuga daKana mwiisi ya Galilaya, aho hayagalusemazi kuwa divai. Aho kukala na mkuluimoja yakalile na mbwanga wake mtamukudibuga da Kapelinaumu. 47 Mkulu ayoviyahulike kambaYesu keza kulawamwiisiya Yudea kwiza mwiisi ya Galilaya, kam-cholela Yesu, kampula yachole kudibugada Kapelinaumu yakamuhonye mbwanga

49 Mkulu ayo kamulongela, “Go mkulu,tuchole wose mwanangu yang'halihanakufa.”

50Yesu kamulongela, “Genda, mwanagokohona!”

Munhu ayo katogola mbuli za Yesu,kachola. 51 Mnzila ya kuchola ukayakekawating'hana wasang'hanaji zake wamu-longela, “Mbwanga wako kahona!”

52 Kawauza mna ikipindi gani mwan-age viyahonile, wamwidika, “Ikala janasaa saba imisi vivo homa viimulekile.”53Bahaja tata ayo kakumbuka ikala kipindiacho Yesu viyamulongele, “Mwanago ko-hona.” Avo heyo na wanhu wa mng'andayake wamtogola Yesu.

54 Uno ukala unzonza wakabili yaut-endile Yesu viyalawile isi ya Yudea kwizaisi ya Galilaya.

5Yesu komuhonyamtamu hana dikolombo

1 Vigabitile gano, Yesu kacholakudibuga da Yelusalemu kuna inyimwilinyimwili ya Wayahudi. 2 Ako Yelusalemubehi na mulango ukemigwe Mulangowa Ng'hondolo kukala na kolombodikemigwe kwa Kiebulania Betisaza.Mumgwazo wa kolombo dijo kukala navihelengo vitano. 3 Lunhu mkulu lwawanhu wolumwa lukala lutambalalamvihelengo vivo, wanhu wasuwameso,mbetembete na wanhu waholole. Wakalawobetela mazi gatibuligwe, 4 kwavija kunakipindi msenga wa kuulanga kezaga nakugatibula gaja gamazi geli kudikolombo,na mtamu yoyose yahalongola kwingilamazi gahamala kutibuligwa, kohonautamu wowose uyali nao. 5 Aho kukalana munhu imoja mtamu kwa miyakamalongo madatu na nane. 6 Yesuviyamone katambalala aho, kajuwa kambamunhu ayo kana utamu wa siku nyingi,avo Yesu kamuuza, “Kolonda kuhona?”

7 Mtamu ayo kamwidika, “Gomkulu. Kuduhu munhu wa kuningizakudikolombo mazi gahatibuligwa. Kilavinigeza kwingila, munhu iyagwekonilongolela.”

8 Abaho Yesu kamulongela, “Winuke,papa mkeka wako, utembele.” 9 Bahaja

Mbuli ino ilawilila mwiisiku yaKubwihila, 10 avo wakulu wa Wayahudiwamulongela munhu ija yahonyigwe,“Lelo ni siku ya Kubwihila, Malagizo getugogomesa gweye sekeupapemkekawako.”

11 Munhu ayo yahonyigwe kawedika,“Munhu heyo yanihonyile kanilongela ni-pape mkeka wangu nigende.”

12 Wamuuza, “Munhu gani heyo yaku-longele utende vivo?”

13 Lakini munhu ayo yahonyigwe kakalahamjuwile Yesu viyali, kwavija hanhu ahokukala na lunhu, na Yesu kakala yasegele.

14 Abaho, Yesu kamvika munhu ayoyamuhonyile Mwiig'anda ya Mulungu.Kamulongela, “Tegeleza, gweye sambikuhona. Sekeutende nzambi kabili, mu-ladi sekegakupate gehile kubanza gano.”

Waja wose watendileganogile wozilibuka na kupata ugima,na waja watendile gehile wozilibuka iliwatagusigwe.”

Ukweli mbuli ya Yesu30 “Niye mwenyego sitenda mbuli

6Yesu kowagwaa lujo lunhu mkuluMat 14:13-21; Mlk 6:30-44; Luk 9:10-17

1Abaho, Yesu kalokamwambuwa lambada Galilaya, vivija dokemigwa Lamba daTibelia. 2 Lunhu mkulu lumkweleleza,kwavija luwonaunzonzawakewakuhonyawatamu. 3 Yesu kakwela mbaka uchanhakukigongo kakala hasi na wanahinazake. 4 Kipindi cha nyimwili nyimwili yaWayahudi ikemigwe Pasaka kikala behi.5 Yesu viyalolile kaluwona lunhu mkululomwizila, avo kamuuza Filipo, “Tukagulekwahi vinhu vingi vakuja muladi wanhuwano wose waje?” 6 Yesu kalonga vinokumgeza Filipo kwavija kakala yajuwilekinhu gani chonda yatende.

7 Filipo kamwidika, “Sente magana ma-bili hazidaha kugula magate kwa wanhuwose wano!”

8 Imoja wa wanahina zake Yesuyakemigwe Andeleya, ndugu yake SimoniPetulo, kalonga, 9 “Kabahano mbwangakana magate matano ga ngano na sombawabili, lakini sikinhu chochose kwa lunhululihano.”

10 Yesu kawalongela wanahina zake,“Walongeleni wanhu wakale hasi.”Kwavija hanhu aho hakala na mijani,wanhu wose wakala hasi. Kukala nawambigalo kamba elufu tano. 11 Yesukasola gaja gamagate, kamgwaa nhogolwaMulungu, kawagolela wanhu wosewakalile aho. Katenda vivo kwa wajaiwasomba, kila munhu kapata viyalondile.12Viwamambukize kuja, Yesu kawalongela

wanahina zake, “Dondoleni vihandevisigale. Sekemuleke hata kimoja.” 13 Avowanahinawadondola na kumemeza vigelolongo na vibili kulawa kuna gamagatematano gawadile wanhu.

14Viwauwonile unzonza uno yautendileYesu, wanhu walonga, “Kweli ino ayomtula ndaguwaMulunguyalondeke kwizamwiisi!” 15 Yesu kajuwa kamba walondakumgoga kwa nguvu na kumtenda mn-dewa wao, avo kabweleganya kuvigongoyaiyeka.

Yesu kotembela uchanha mgamaziMat 14:22-23; Mlk 6:45-52

16 Viivikile ichungulo, wanahina waYesu wahumuluka kudilamba, 17 wakwelamwiingalawa, na kubwela umwambuwa lamba mwambu wa Kapelinaumu.Ikilo ivika lakini Yesu kakala yang'halihanachola kumwao. 18 Beho kulu dibumana kugatibula ga mazi. 19 Wanahinazake viwacholile utali wa kilometa tanombaka sita, wamona Yesu kotembelauchanha mgamazi, kokwiza mwambuwao kuili ngalawa, wadumba ng'hani.20 Yesu kawalongela, “Sekemudumbe. Iyoniye!” 21Wanahina zake walonda kumsolaYesu mwiingalawa, bahaja wavika mwiisikuwakalile wochola.

Wanhu womzahila Yesu22 Imitondo iyagwe lunhu mkulu lukala

Waowajuwa kamba Yesu hacholile hamoja nawanahina zake, lakini wasegela waiyeka.23 Ngalawa ziyagwe zilawile Tibelia zivikambaka behi na hanhu hawadile mag-ate Mndewa viyamambukize kumgwaanhogolwa Mulungu. 24 Wanhu viwa-juwile Yesu kahaduhu hanhu aho, hebuwanahina zake, wakwela mzingalawa nakuchola Kapelinaumu, kumzahila.

Yesu ayo lujo lwa ugima25 Wanhu viwamvikile Yesu umwambu

uyagwe wa lamba, wamuuza, “Mfundiza,vino hano kwiza lini?”

26 Yesu kawedika, “Nowalongeleni uk-weli, monizahila niye kwavija muja mag-ate mwiguta, siyo kwavija mona unzonzawangu. 27 Sekemulusang'hanile lujo lu-nangika, lakini mulusang'hanile lujo lu-gala ugima wa mazuwa gose. Uno awolujo londa yawagwee Mwana wa Munhu,kwavija Mulungu Tata kamsagula.”

Yohana 6:28 111 Yohana 6:6228 Avo wamuuza, “Vino kinhu gani tu-

tende tudahe kugatenda goyolonda Mu-lungu?”

29 Yesu kawedika, “Kinhu choolondaMulungu mweye mutende, mumtogole ijayamtumile.”

30 Wamwidika, “Vino unzonza ganiwonda utende ili tuwone na kukutogola?Choni chonda utende? 31 Wahenga zetuwaja lujo lukemigwa Mana kuluwala,kamba Maandiko Gang'alile vigalonga,‘Kawagwelela lujo luhumuluke kuulanga.’”

32 Yesu kawalongela, “Nowalongeleniukweli, siyo Musa yawagwelele lujo lwakuulanga, lakini Tatangu ayo yowagwaalujo lwa ukweli kulawa kuulanga. 33 Lujoloowagwaa Mulungu ayo heyo yezile hasikulawa kuulanga na kowagwaa ugimawanhu wa mwiisi.”

34 Wamulongela, “Go mkulu, tugweelujo lulo siku zose.”

35 Yesu kawalongela, “Niye ayo lujolugala ugima. Wose wonda wezekumwangu honda wone nzala, na wajawose wonhogola honda wone ng'hilu.36 Niwalongeleni kamba munyona lakinihamtogola. 37 Wose iwonigwelelaTatangu wokwiza kumwangu. Na niyesimwasa kunze munhu yoyose yokwizakumwangu, 38 kwavija sizile hasi kulawakuulanga kutenda gaja gonilonda lakinigoyolonda Tata yanhumile. 39 Gano gagogoyolonda ija yanhumile sekenimwagizehata imoja mna iwaja wose yangwelele,lakini nolondeka niwazilibule wose nakuwagwaa ugima siku ya kimambukizo.40 Kwavija kiyolonda Tatangu achokino, kila munhu yomulola Mwana nakumtogola heyo yawe na ugima wamazuwa gose. Na niye nomzilibulamunhuayo mna isiku ya uhelelo.”

41 Avo, Wayahudi wasonga kum-nung'unikila Yesu kwavija kalonga, “Niyeayo lujo luhumuluke kuulanga.” 42 Avowalonga, “Vino ino siyo Yesu mwanageYusufu? Tumjuwa tatake na mamake.Yokuwaze kabili kolonga kahumulukakuulanga?”

43 Yesu kawedika, “Lekeni kuin-ung'unikila. 44 Kuduhu munhu yodahakwiza kumwangu bila kugaligwa na Tatayanhumile, na niye nomzilibula munhuayo mna isiku ya uhelelo. 45 Watulandagu wa Mulungu wandika, ‘Kila munhukofundizigwa na Mulungu.’ Munhu

yoyose yomtegeleza Tata na kuifunzakumwake kokwiza kumwangu. 46 Kuduhumunhu yoyose yamonile Tata, heyoyalawile kwa Mulungu ayo heyo yaiyekayamonile Tata. 47 Nowalongeleni ukweli,heyo yotogola kanao ugima wa mazuwagose. 48 Niye ayo lujo lugala ugima.49Wahenga zenuwaja lujoMana kuluwala,lakini wafa. 50 Lakini munhu yoyoseyoluja lujo luhumuluke kuulanga hondayafe bule. 51 Niye ayo lujo lugala ugimaluhumuluke kuulanga. Munhu yoyoseyoja lujo luno, kokuwa mgima siku zose.Lujo londa nimgwee munhu ayo ni lukulilwangu, awo uniwagwelela wanhu wamwiisi ili wawe wagima.”

52 Mbuli ino iwatenda Wayahudiwaibamilile. Waiuza, “Vino munhu inokodahaze kutugwaa lukuli lwake tuluje?”

53 Yesu kawalongela, “Nowalongeleniukweli, kamba hamuluja lukuli lwaMwana wa Munhu na kuing'wa damuyake, honda muwe na ugima mgatimmwenu. 54 Munhu yoluja lukuli lwanguna kuing'wa damu yangu kanao ugimawa mazuwa gose, na niye nomzilibulamna isiku ya uhelelo. 55 Kwavija lukulilwangu ulo lujo lwa kweli, na damuyangu acho king'waji cha kweli. 56Wanhuwoluja lukuli lwangu na kuing'wa damuyangu wokala mgati mmwangu, na niyenokala mgati mmwao. 57 Tata yeli mgimayanhumile, na kwa mbuli yake niye navivija mgima.

59 Yesu kalonga mbuli zino viyakalilekofundiza mna ing'anda ya kumpula Mu-lungu ako Kapelinaumu.

Mbuli zigala ugima wa mazuwa gose60 Wanhu zake wengi wamkweleleze

waihulika mbuli ino na kulonga, “Mafun-dizo gano madala ng'hani. Nani yodahakugatogola?”

61 Bila kulongeligwa, Yesu kajuwakamba wanhu zake wamkwelelezewakala woinung'unikila mbuli ino,avo kawalongela, “Vino mbuli inoyolonda kuwatenda mulemelwe? 62 Vinoyokuwaze, mwahamona Mwana waMunhu kobwela uchanha kuja kuyakalile

Mbuliziniwalongeleni ni za Loho wa Mulunguna zogala ugima. 64 Lakini wayagwe wenuhawatogola.” Yesu kawajuwa toka mwakawaja hawamtogola na kamjuwa ija yondayamuhinduke. 65Abaho kalonga, “Lekaavoniwalongeleni kuduhu munhu yodahakwiza kumwangu bila Tata kutendaidahike kwa munhu ayo kutenda vivo.”

66 Kwa ulonzi uno, wanhu wengiwamkweleleze wabweleganya kukisogona hawadahile kabili kuchola nayo. 67AvoYesu kawauza wanahina zake longona wabili, “Na mweye vivija molondakusegela?”

68 Simoni Petulo kamwidika, “Mndewa,tweye tuchole kwa nani? Gweye ku-nazo mbuli zigala ugima wa mazuwa gose.69 Sambi tweye totogola na tojuwa kambagweye ayo Yang'alile ija yalawile kwa Mu-lungu.”

70 Yesu kedika, “Vino siwasagulemweye longo na wabili? Lakini imojawenu Mwenembago!” 71 Yesu kakalayolonga mbuli ya Yuda, mwanage SimoniIsikaliote. Yuda kakala imojawawanahinalongo na wabili, ayo yonda yamuhindukeYesu.

7Yesu na ndugu zake

1 Vigabitile gano, Yesu kachola mwiisiya Galilaya, halondile kuchola isi ya Yudeakwavija wakulu wa Wayahudi wakalawolonda kumkoma. 2 Siku ya nyimwilinyimwili ya Wayahudi ya viheha ikalabehi, 3 avo ndugu zake Yesu wamulongela,“Segela hanhu hano uchole isi ya Yudea,muladi wanhu zako wokukwelelezawazone mbuli ziutenda. 4 Kuduhu munhuyofisa kija kiyotenda kamba yahalondawanhu wamjuwe goya. Kwavija gweyekotenda mbuli zino, leka wanhu wosewamwiisi wakujuwe.” 5 Yesu hatogoligwehata na ndugu zake.

6 Yesu kawalongela, “Kipindi changuniye hakinavika. Lakini kipindi chochosekinoga kumwenu. 7 Wanhu wa mwiisihawawehila mweye, lakini wonihila niye,kwavija siku zose nowalongela gaja goy-otenda ganyolodoka. 8 Mweye cholenikuna inyimwili nyimwili. Niye sicholabule, kwavija kipindi changu hakinavika.”

9 Yesu kalonga vino, abaho kagendelelakukala mwiisi ya Galilaya.

Yesu kuna inyimwili nyimwili ya viheha10 Ndugu zake Yesu viwacholile kuna

inyimwili nyimwili, Yesu nayo kachola.Hacholile kunze kunze lakini kacholakinyelegezi. 11 Wakulu wa Wayahudiwakala womzahila Yesu hana inyimwilinyimwili. Walonga, “Munhu ija kakwahi?”

12 Hakala na minong'ono hana ulunhumbuli ya Yesu. Wanhu wayagwe walonga,“Kanoga,” lakini wayagwe walonga, “Bule,kokwagiza wanhu.” 13 Lakini kuduhumunhu yokala yolonga mbuli ya Yesuchaka chaka, kwavija wakala wowadumbawakulu wa Wayahudi.

14 Nyimwili nyimwili viikalile ha-gatigati, Yesu kengila Mng'anda yaMulungu kasonga kufundiza. 15 Wakuluwa Wayahudi wakanganya ng'hani nakulonga, “Yokuwaze munhu ino kojuwavinhu vingi na kuno haifunzile kokose?”

16 Yesu kawedika, “Mafundizo ganogonifundiza siyo gangu, lakini golawakwa Mulungu yanhumile. 17 Munhuyoyose yolonda kutenda goyolonda Mu-lungu kojuwa gano gonifundiza golawakwa Mulungu hebu nolonga gaja go-nilonda. 18 Munhu ija yolonga mbulizake kozahila nhogolwa yake mwenyego.Lakini heyo yozahila nhogolwa kumwakeija yamtumile munhu ayo mkweli, mduhuuvizi mumulomo mmwake. 19 Vino Musahawagwelele Malagizo? Lakini kuduhuhata munhu imoja yogagoga. Vino habalimolonda kung'homa?”

20 Lunhu lwa wanhu lumwidika, “Gw-eye kuna kinyamkela. Nani yolondakukukoma?”

21 Yesu kawedika, “Nhenda unzonzaumoja, mweyemosemukanganya. 22Musakawalagiza muwengize kumbi wanenuhamoja siyo Musa lakini wahenga zenuawo wasongile, na mweye momwingizakumbi mwana mna isiku ya Kubwi-hila. 23 Kamba mwana kokwingizigwakumbi mna isiku ya Kubwihila muladisekemubene Malagizo ga Musa, habalimonigevuzikila kwavija nimuhonyamunhu mna isiku ya Kubwihila? 24 Lekenikutagusa kwa meso, lakini mutaguse kwaukweli.”

Ayuno iyo Kilisito Mkombola?

Yohana 7:25 113 Yohana 8:525 Wanhu wayagwe wa Yelusalemu wa-

longa, “Vino ino siyo munhu ija iwakuluwolonda kumkoma? 26 Loleni! Kolongakunze kunze na hawamulongela mbuliyoyose! Vino iwakulu wamjuwa ayo Kil-isito Mkombola? 27 Lakini Kilisito Mkom-bola yaheza, kuduhu munhu yonda ya-juwe kolawa kwahi, lakini tweye tukujuwakoolawa munhu ino.”

28 Yesu viyakalile kofundiza Mng'andaya Mulungu, kalonga kwa sauti ng'hulu,“Vino mweye munjuwa goya niye namukujuwa kuja kundawa? Sizile kwaudahi wangumwenyego, heyo yanhumile,ni mkweli. Mweye hamumjuwile, 29 lakininiye nimjuwa, kwavija nolawa kumwake,nayo kanhuma.”

30 Abaho walonda kumgoga, lakinikuduhu hata munhu imoja yamgoloselemkono, kwavija saa yake ikala hainavika.31 Lakini wanhu wengi hana ulunhuwamtogola na kulonga, “Vino KilisitoMkombola yaheza, kotenda unzonzamkulu kubanza yautendile munhu ino?”

Wakalizi watumigwa kumgoga Yesu32 Mafalisayo waluhulika lunhu

lonyong'onya mbuli ya Yesu, avo waona iwakulu wa walava nhosa wawatumawakalizi wamgoge. 33 Yesu kalonga,“Nokala na mweye kipindi kidodo, naabaho nochola kumwake ija yanhumile.34 Monizahila, lakini honda munyone,kwavija hamudaha kwiza hanhu hanili.”

35 Wakulu wa Wayahudi wailongela,“Vino munhu ino kochola kwahi mbakaseketumone? Vino kochola kunagam-abuga ga Wagiliki kuko kookala wanhuzetu na kuwafundiza Wagiliki? 36Vino ko-fambula choni viyolonga, tomzahila lakinihonda tumone, na hatudaha kuchola kukokonda yawe?”

Vizanda va mazi ga ugima37 Mna isiku ya uhelelo na siku

ng'hulu ya inyimwili nyimwili, Yesukema kakemelela, “Munhu yoyoseyokona ng'hilu yeze kumwangu yang'we.38 Kamba Maandiko Gang'alile vigalonga,‘Munhu yonhogola niye, vizanda va mazigogala ugima vokilima muumoyo wake.’” 39 Yesu kalonga vino mbuli ya LohoYang'alile, ija wanhu wose womtogolawombokela. Kipindi acho Loho Yang'alilekakala yang'hali hanakwiza, kwavija Yesukakala hanakwinuligwa muukulu.

Kuigola kwa wanhu

40 Wanhu wayagwe mna ulunhu wa-muhulika viyalongile avo na walonga,“Kweli munhu ino mtula ndagu wa Mu-lungu!”

41Wanhu wayagwe walonga, “Heyo ayoKilisito Mkombola!”

Lakini wayagwe walonga, “KilisitoMkombola hadaha kulawa mwiisiya Galilaya! 42 Maandiko Gang'alilegolonga kamba Kilisito Mkombola kolawamulukolo lwa Daudi na kovumbukilaBeselehemu kudibuga diyakalile Daudi.”43 Avo lunhu luigola mbuli ya Yesu.44 Wanhu wayagwe walonda kumgogaYesu, lakini kuduhu hata munhu imojayamgolosele mkono.

Kuleka kutogola kwa wakulu waWayahudi

45 Wakalizi viwabwelile, wakulu wawalava nhosa na Mafalisayo wawauza,“Habali hamumgalile?”

46 Wakalizi wawedika, “Kuduhu munhuyolonga kamba munhu ayo!”

47 Mafalisayo wawauza, “Vino na mw-eye vivija muviziligwa?” 48 “Mumjuwamkulu yoyose hebu Mfalisayo yomtogola?49 Lunhu luno halugajuwile Malagizo gaMusa, avo waduiligwa na Mulungu!”

50Nikodemokakala imojawaMafalisayowakalile aho, ayo yacholile kumulola Yesuichanduso. Kawalongela wayage, 51 “VinoMalagizo getu godaha kumtagusa munhuyoyose bila tanhu kumuhulika na kuki-juwa kija kiyatendile?”

52 Wamwidika, “Vino na gweye vivijakolawa mwiisi ya Galilaya? GasomeMaandiko Gang'alile na koifunza, kuduhumtula ndagu wa Mulungu yalawile mwiisiya Galilaya.” 53Abaho kila munhu kacholaukayake.

7 Viwagendelele kwima aho kunowomuuza, Yesu kenuka kawalongela,“Munhu yoyose hatendile nzambi yasongekumpigisila dibwe.” 8AbahoYesu kainamakabili kandika hasi. 9Viwahulike avo, wosewasegela imoja imoja, wasonga iwavele.Yesu kalekigwa yaiyeka, na mtwanzi ijayang'hali yemile aho. 10 Yesu kenukana kumulongela mtwanzi ija, “Wa kwahiwanhu waja? Kuduhu munhu yoyoseyakutaguse?”

11 Mtwanzi ija kalonga, “Go mkulu, ka-haduhu.”

Yesu kalonga, “Vinoga. Na niye vivijasikutagusa. Genda lakini sekeutendenzambi kabili.”

Yesu yuyo mulenge wa isi12 Yesu kawalongela Mafalisayo kabili,

“Niye ayo mulenge wa isi. Munhu yoyoseyonikweleleza kokuwa na mulenge waugima na honda yagende mdiziza bule.”

13 Mafalisayo wamulongela, “Gweyekoisindila mwenyego, avo gago goulongahagatogoligwa kamba kweli.”

14 Yesu kawedika, “Aka, hata kambanahaisindila mwenyego, gaja gonilongaga ukweli kwavija nikujuwa kundawilena kuja kunichola. Mweye hamuku-juwile kuja kundawile hebu kuja kuni-chola. 15Mweye motagusa kwa nzila zoy-otagusa wanhu, niye simtagusa munhuyoyose. 16 Lakini hata nahatagusa, nota-gusa goya kwavija sili niiyeka bule, na-hamoja na Tata yanhumile. 17Yandikigwamna ga Malagizo genu kamba usindilawa wanhu wabili wahailumba, gaja gowo-longa ga ukweli. 18 Niye noisindilamwenyego, na Tata yanhumile vivija kon-isindila.”

19Wamuuza, “Tatako kakwahi?”Yesu kawedika, “Hamnijuwile niye hebu

Tatangu. Maza munijuwile niye, vivijamwahamjuwile Tatangu.”

20 Yesu kalonga gano gose viyakalilekofundiza Mng'anda ya Mulungu, mdi-gati hakikigwe kiya cha kulavila sadaka.Kuduhu munhu yamgogile, kwavija saayake ikala hainavika.

Hamudaha kuchola kuja kunyhola21 Yesu kawalongela kabili, “Niye

nosegela, mweye monizahila, lakini mofa

na nzambi zenu. Hamudaha kuchola kujakunyhola.”

22Avowakulu waWayahudi wauza, “Ko-longa hatudaha kuchola hanhu kuyochola.Vino kolonda kuikoma mwenyego?”

23 Yesu kawedika, “Mweye mwa wanhuwa mwiisi ino, lakini niye nolawa kuu-langa. Mweye molawa mumuno mwiisi,lakini niye silawa mwiisi bule. 24 Lekaavoniwalongelenimofa na nzambi zenu. Mofana nzambi zenu kamba hamulonda kuto-gola kamba ‘Niye ayo Heyo.’ ”

25Wamuuza, “Gweye kwa nani?”Yesu kawedika, “Niwalongeleni

haichanduso. 26 Ninazo mbuli nyingi zakulonga kumwenu, nyingi za kuwatagusa.Hata ivo ija yanhumile ni mkweli, naniye nowalongela wanhu wa mwiisi kijakimhulike kumwake.”

27 Wakala hawajuwile kamba Yesukakala kolonga mbuli ya Tata. 28 Avokawalongela, “Mwahamwinula uchanhaMwana wa Munhu, mojuwa kamba, ‘Niyeayo Heyo,’ abaho mojuwa kamba sitendambuli yoyose kwa udahi wangu, lakininolonga kija kiyanilagize Tata nonge.29 Na heyo yanhumile kahamoja na nene,handekile niiyeka bule kwavija siku zosenotenda kija kimnogele.”

30 Wanhu wengi wamuhulike Yesu yo-longa mbuli zino wamtogola.

Yesu kowatenda mulekesigwe31Avo Yesu kawalongela Wayahudi waja

wamtogole, “Kambamwahatogola mafun-dizo gangu, mwa wanahina zangu kweli.32Avo moijuwa kweli, na kweli yowatendamulekesigwe.”

33 Wamwidika, “Tweye twa lukolo lwaAbulahamu na hatunakuwa watumwawa munhu yoyose. Habali kotulongela‘Tolekesigwa’?”

34 Yesu kawalongela, “Nowalongeleniukweli, munhu yoyose yotenda nzambimtumwa wa nzambi. 35 Mtumwa halimunhu wa lukolo siku zose, lakini mwanaayo munhu wa lukolo siku zose. 36 KambaMwana yahawalekesa, na mweye moleke-sigwa kweli. 37 Nojuwa mwa lukololwa Abulahamu. Lakini molonda ku-nikoma, kwavija hamgatogola mafundizogangu. 38 Nowalongela kija kiyanilagusileTatangu, lakinimweyemotenda kija kimu-longeligwe na tata yenu.”

39Wamwidika, “Tata yetu Abulahamu.”

Yohana 8:40 115 Yohana 9:11Yesu kawedika, “Maza mukalile wana

waAbulahamu,mwahatendilembuli zizijaziyatendile heyo. 40 Niwalongela ukweliumhulike kwa Mulungu, lakini molondakunikoma. Abulahamu hatendile kambavivo! 41Motenda kiyatendile tata yenu.”

Wamwidika, “Mulungu yaiyeka ayo Tataitwilinayo hatuli wana wa kuvikila, tweyetwa wanage too.”

42 Yesu kawalongela, “Maza Mulunguyakalile Tata yenu, mwahaninogele,kwavija niza kulawa kwa Mulungu nasambi nabahano. Sizile kwa udahi wangumwenyego, lakini kanhuma. 43 Habalihamjuwa kinonga? Kwavija hamudahakutegeleza usenga wangu. 44 Mweyemwa wana wa tataenu, Mwenembago, namweye molonda kukweleleza kusulukilakwa tataenu. Kusongela mwaka kakalamkomaji na hemile muna ikweli, kwavijamduhu kweli mgati mmwake. Yahalongauvizi, kolagusa viyali, kwavija heyoni mvizi na tata wa uvizi. 45 Lakininowalongeleni ukweli, lekaavo hamni-togola bule. 46 Nani imoja wenu yodahakulagusa kamba nibananga? Kambanolonga ukweli, habali hamunhogola?47 Munhu wa Mulungu kotegeleza mbuliza Mulungu. Hata ivo, mweye hamuli waMulungu, lekaavo hamnitegeleza.”

Yesu kakala kuko Abulahamu yang'halihanavumbuka

48 Wayahudi wamuliga Yesu walonga,“Hatulongile goya kamba gweye kwaMsamalia na kuna kinyamkela?”

49 Yesu kawedika, “Nabule kinyamkela.Nomtegeleza Tatangu lakini mweyemonibeza. 50 Sizahila nhogolwa yangumwenyego. Lakini kabaho imoja yoizahila,heyo ayo yotagusa. 51 Nowalongeleni uk-weli, munhu yoyose yotogola mafundizogangu honda yafe bule.”

52Avo, Wayahudi wamulongela, “Sambitojuwa kamba gweye kuna kinyamkela!Abulahamu kafa, na watula ndagu wa Mu-lungu wafa, abaho gweye kolonga yoyoseyotogola mafundizo gako honda yafe bule.53 Vino gweye kwa mkulu kubanza tatayetu Abulahamu? Heyo kafa, na watulandagu wa Mulungu vivija wafa. Kogesagweye kwa nani?”

54 Yesu kawedika, “Nahaitogolamwenyego, nhogolwa ayo mduhu kinhu.Ija yonitogola niye ni Tatangu yumulongaMulungu wenu. 55 Mweye hamumjuwile

bule, lakini niye nimjuwa. Nahalongasimjuwile, nokuwa mvizi kamba mweye.Lakini nimjuwa, na nozigoga mbuli zake.56 Tata yenu Abulahamu kadeng'helelaviyachonile kipindi changu chakwiza,kachona na kadeng'helela.”

57 Wayahudi wamulongela Yesu, “Vinogweye hunapata hata miyaka malongomatano, kumonaze Abulahamu?”

58 Yesu kawedika, “Nowalongeleni uk-weli, Abulahamuyang'hali hana vumbuka,niye nabaha.”

59 Abaho wadondola mabwewampigisile, lakini Yesu kaifisa kalawanyaMng'anda ya Mulungu.

9Yesu komuhonya munhu yavumbuke

msuwameso1 Yesu viyakalile kogenda, kamona

munhu yavumbuke msuwameso.2 Wanahina zake wamuuza, “Mfundiza,nzambi gani imtendile munhu inoyavumbuke msuwameso? Vino heyo ayoyaitendile nzambi ayo hebu tatake namamake?”

3 Yesu kawedika, “Ino hailawililekwavija heyo katenda nzambi hebu tatakena mamake watenda nzambi. Lakinikavumbuka msuwameso muladi udahi waMulungu woneke kumwake. 4 Kwavijaing'hali imisi, tolondeka tusang'hanesang'hano ya ija yanhumile. Ikilo yovika,bahokuduhumunhuyodaha kusang'hana.5 Kipindi ning'hali mwiisi, niye namulenge wa isi yose.”

6 Viyamambukize kulonga vino, Yesukatema mate hasi, kabuluga nhope kwamate gaja, abaho kambaka mgamesomunhu ija msuwameso. 7 Yesu kamulon-gela, “Genda kasunhe kihanga chako hanadilamba da Siloamu.” Siloamu fambulojake “Yatumigwe.” Avomunhu ija kachola,kasunha kihanga chake, kabwela yolola.

8Wanhu weli mmabehi nayo, na wanhuwamonile aho umwaka yopula, ing'halihainalawilila mbuli ino, wauza, “Vino inosiyo munhu ija yakalile na kupula?”

9Wanhu wayagwe walonga, “Iyo heyo,”lakini wayagwe walonga, “Aka, siyo heyo,kaigala nayo.”

Avo munhu ija kalonga mwenyego, “Iyoniye.”

10Wamuuza, “Vino kudahaze kulola?”11 Kawedika, “Munhu yokemigwa Yesu

katenda nhope, kanibakamgameso gangu,

Yohana 9:12 116 Yohana 9:39

kanilongela nigenda Siloamu nikasunhekihanga changu. Avo nichola, na bahajavinisunhile nidaha kulola.”

12Wamuuza, “Munhu ayo kakwahi?”Kawedika, “Mmhane.”

Mafalisayo wozahila munhu msuwamesokahonyigwa vilihi

13 Abaho wamgala kwa Mafalisayomunhu ayo yakalile msuwameso. 14 Yesuviyatendile nhope na kumuhonya munhuayo yakalile msuwameso ikala siku yaKubwihila. 15 Abaho Mafalisayo wamuuzakabili munhu ayo viyadahile kulola.Kawalongela, “Kanibaka nhope mgamesogangu, nisunha kihanga changu, na sambinodaha kulola.”

16 Mafalisayo wayagwe walonga,“Munhu yatendile mbuli ino halawa kwaMulungu bule, kwavija hadigoga lagizo dasiku ya Kubwihila.”

Lakini wayagwe walonga, “Vino munhuyotenda nzambi kodahaze kutenda un-zonza kamba uno?” Avo, wakala waigolile.

17 Avo Mafalisayo wabwelela kumuuzamunhu ayo, “Kulonga kakuhonyausuwameso wako. Gweye kolongazembuliya munhu ayo?”

Munhu ayo kawedika, “Mtula ndagu waMulungu.”

18 Hata ivo wakulu wa Wayahudihawalondile kutogola kamba kakalamsuwameso na sambi kodaha kulola.Avo wawakema tatake na mamake,19 Wayahudi wawauza, “Vino ino ayomwanenu? Yumulonga kavumbukamsuwameso, lelo kadahaze kulola?”

20 Tatake na mamake wawedika,“Tojuwa kamba heyo ayo mwanetu, natojuwa kamba kavumbuka msuwameso.21 Lakini hatujuwile sambi viyadahilekulola, wala hatumjuwile munhuyamuhonyile. Muuzeni mwenyego,heyo mkulu goya, kodaha kuwedika!”22Tatakenamamakewalonga vino kwavijawakala wowadumbawakuluwaWayahudi,kwavijaWayahudi walongamunhu yoyoseyolonga komtogola Yesu kamba ayoKilisito Mkombola kowingigwa mng'andaya kumpula Mulungu. 23 Lekaavo tatakena mamake walonga, “Heyo mkulu goya,muuzeni!”

24 Mwanza wa kabili wamkema munhuija yavumbuke msuwameso, wamulon-gela, “Iduile kwa Mulungu kamba ko-longa ukweli! Tojuwa kamba munhu inoyakuhonyile kotenda nzambi.”

25 Munhu ayo kawedika, “Mmhanekamba munhu ayo kotenda nzambi hebuhatenda bule. Kinhu kimoja kinjuwile,ng'hala silola, sambi nolola.”

26Wamuuza, “Vino kakutendela choni?Kakuhonyaze usuwameso wako?”

27 Kawedika, “Nimala kuwalongela,lakini hamulonda kutegeleza. Vino habalimolonda kuihulika kabili? Hebu namweye vivija molonda kuwa wanahinazake?”

28 Wamuliga na kumulongela, “Gweyekwa mwanahina wa munhu ayo! Tweyetwa wanahina wa Musa. 29 Tojuwa kambaMulungu kalonga na Musa, lakini kwamunhu ayo, hatujuwile kolawa kwahi!”

30 Munhu ija kawedika, “Mweyemonyazanya! Hamkujuwile kuyalawile,lakini kanitenda nidahe kulola! 31 Tojuwakamba Mulungu hawategeleza wanhu wo-tenda nzambi, lakini kowategeleza wanhuwaja womtegeleza heyo na kusang'hanagaja goyolonda. 32 Tangu chandusocha isi yose kuduhu munhu yahulikekamba munhu yoyose kamuhonya munhuyavumbuke msuwameso. 33 Maza munhuino halawile kwa Mulungu, sambi yadahekutenda mbuli ino.”

34 Wamwidika, “Gweye kuvumbuka nakukulila mzizambi abaho kolonda kutu-funza tweye?” Avo wamuwinga mnaing'anda ya kumpula Mulungu.

Usuwameso wa loho35 Yesu viyahulike kamba wamuwinga

36 Munhu ayo kamwidika, “Go mkulu,nongela ayo nani, mhate kumtogola!”

37 Yesu kamulongela, “Kumona, ayoheyo yolonga na gweye sambi.”

38 Munhu ayo kalonga, “Notogola Mn-dewa.” Abaho kamfugamila Yesu.

39 Yesu kalonga, “Niza mwiisi inokuwatagusa wanhu, avo waja hawalolawalole na waja wogesa wolola walekekulola.”

Yohana 9:40 117 Yohana 10:3340Mafalisayo wayagwe wakalile hamoja

na Yesu viwamuhulike kolonga avo, wa-muuza, “Vino kolonga na tweye vivija hat-ulola?”

41 Yesu kawedika, “Maza mkalile hamu-lola, sambi mutende nzambi. Lakini kwav-ija molonga molola, avo mung'hali mo-tenda nzambi.”

10Lusimo lwa msusilaji

1 Yesu kalonga, “Nowalongela ukweli,munhu yoyose yoleka kubitila hanaulwivi lwa ng'hondolo, lakini kokwelana kubitila nzila iyagwe, munhu ayombavi na mbokaji. 2 Munhu ija yobitilahana ulwivi ayo msusilaji wa ng'hondolo.3 Mkalizi wa ulwivi komvugulila ulwivi,ng'hondolo wokihulika kifengwa chamsusilaji viyowakema ng'hondolo zakekwa matwaga gao, kowalava kunze.4 Yahawalava kunze kowalongolela,na ng'hondolo womkweleleza kwavijawakijuwa kifengwa chake. 5 Hondawamkweleleze munhu yoyose iyagwe,lakini womkimbila munhu ayo kwavijahawakijuwile kifengwa chake.”

6 Yesu kawalongela lusimo luno lakinihawajuwile fambulo jake.

Yesu ayo msusilaji yanogile7 Avo Yesu kalonga kabili, “Nowalonge-

leni ukweli, niye ayo lwivi lwa ng'hondolo.8 Wose wayagwe wezile kukisogo changuwabavi na wabokaji, lakini ng'hondolohawawategeleze bule. 9 Niye ayo lwivi.Munhuyoyose yobitila kumwangukokom-boligwa, kokwingila na kulawa kuzahilachakuja. 10 Mbavi kokwiza muladi yebe,yakome, na kunanga. Niye niza muladimuwe na ugima, ugima umemile.

11 “Niye ayo msusilaji yanogile. Msusi-laji yanogile koulava ugima wake mbuliya ng'hondolo. 12 Munhu wa kulip-igwa yeli siyo msusilaji na ng'hondolohaweli wake, yahamona mbwizi kokwiza,kowaleka ng'hondolo na kukimbila. Avombwizi kogoga imoja na wayagwe wop-wililika. 13 Munhu wa kulipigwa kokim-bila kwavija heyo munhu wa kulipigwakwiiyeka, na hawatonga bule ng'hondolo.14 Niye ayo msusilaji yanogile. Niwajuwang'hondolo zangu na wao wonijuwa niye,15 kamba Tata viyonjuwa niye, na niyevinimjuwa Tata. Na niye nodaha kufambuli yao. 16 Abaho ninao ng'hondolo

wayagwe siyo wa mdizizi dino. Vivijanolondeka niwagale, wokihulika kifengwachangu, nao wokuwa bumbila dimoja damsusilaji imoja.

17 “Tata koninogela kwavija noulavaugima wangu kwa kulonda mwenyego,muladi nidahe kuubweza kabili. 18Kuduhumunhu youlava ugima wangu. Niyenoulava kwa kulonda mwenyego. Ninaoudahi wa kuulava, na udahi wa kuub-weza kabili. Vino vivo viyanilagize Tatanhende.”

19 Mbuli zino za Yesu ziwatendaWayahudi waigole kabili. 20 Wanhuwengi wakala wolonga, “Kana kinyamkela,vivija kana kibozi mbwelela! Habalimumtegeleza?”

21 Lakini wanhu wayagwe wakala wo-longa, “Munhu yeli na kinyamkela hadahakulonga kamba vino! Vino kinyamkelakodahaze kuwahonya wasuwameso?”

Yesu kolemigwa22 Ako Yelusalemu kukala na nyimwili

nyimwili ya kulavigwa kwa Ng'anda yaMulungu kwaMulungu. Kikala kipindi chakihuhwe. 23 Yesu kakala kotembela mnauluhelengo lwa Sulemani hana Ing'andaya Mulungu, 24Wayahudi wamzunguluka,wamuuza, “Vino gweye kotugaza mbakalini? Tulongele fulu ipile, gweye kwaKilisito Mkombola?”

25 Yesu kawedika, “Nimala kuwalon-geleni, lakini hamnhogola. Mbuli zin-henda kwa udahi wa Tatangu zonilagusa,26 lakini honda mtogole, kwavija hamuling'hondolo zangu. 27 Ng'hondolo zanguwoihulika sauti yangu, niye niwajuwa nawao wong'holeleza. 28 Nowagwaa ugimawa mazuwa gose, na honda wafe bule.Kuduhumunhuyonda yawasolemmakonogangu. 29 Tatangu yanigwelele awo ayomkulu kubanza wose, na kuduhu yodahakuwasola mmakono ga Tata. 30 Niye naTata twa wamoja.”

31 Abaho Wayahudi wadondola mabwekabiliwamtoweYesu. 32Yesukawalongela,“Nhenda mbuli nyingi zinogile mgamesogenu zija ziyanigwelele Tata nhende, kwambuli gani molonda kunhowa mabwe?”

33 Wayahudi wamwidika, “Hatulondakukutowa na mabwe mbuli ya mbuliyoyose inogile, lakini mbuli ya ukuduziwako! Gweye kwa munhu, lakini koitendamwenyego kwa Mulungu!”

Yohana 10:34 118 Yohana 11:2934 Yesu kawedika, “Vino hayandikigwe

mna Ikitabu chenu cha malagizo kambaMulungu kalonga, ‘Mweyemwawalungu?’35 Mulungu kawakema ‘walungu’ wanhuwaja wagweleligwe usenga wake, na tw-eye tojuwa kamba Maandiko Gang'alilegolonga ukweli siku zose. 36 Kamba vi-ili kumwangu, Tata kanisagula na kan-huma mwiisi. Yokuwaze kabili mweyemolonga nomkudula kwavija nonga niyena Mwana wa Mulungu? 37Kamba sitendagaja goyolonda Tatangu nhende, seke-munhogole. 38 Lakini kamba nogatenda,hata kamba hamnitogola niye, molondekamutogole gaja ganisang'hane, muladi mu-juwe kamba Tata kokala mgati mmwanguna niye nokala mgati mwa Tata.”

39Bahaja walonda kumgoga Yesu, lakinikawalawa mmakono gao.

40 Abaho Yesu kabwela kabili mwambuwa lwanda lwa Yolidani mbaka ahohaakalile Yohana yobatiza wanhu, kakalakuko. 41 Wanhu wengi wamcholela,walonga, “Yohana hatendile unzonza,lakini kila kinhu kiyalongile mbuli yamunhu ino cha ukweli.” 42 Wanhu wengiwa ako wamtogola Yesu.

11Kufa kwa Lazalo

1 Munhu yakemigwe Lazalo yakalilekudibuga da Betania kakala mtamu.Betania dijo buga diwakalile Malia namkulu wake Mata. 2 Malia ino ayoyambakaze Mndewa mavuta gonung'hilagoya mmagulu na kuhangusa kwamvili zake. Lazalo lumbu jake ayoyakalile mtamu. 3 Avo lumbu zakeLazalo wamgalila Yesu usenga, “Mndewa,mbwigako yuumnogele mtamu.”

4 Yesu viyahulike avo, kalonga, “Utamuawo honda ugale ifa. Uno ulawilila kugalanhogolwa kwa Mulungu, na vivo vondaiwe kwa Mwana wa Munhu kobokelanhogolwa.”

5Yesu kawanogelaMata namdodowakeMalia na lumbu jao Lazalo. 6 Viyabokeleusenga uno kamba Lazalo kakala mtamu,Yesu kongeza siku mbili kukala ahohaakalile. 7 Abaho Yesu kawalongelawanahina zake, “Tubweleni Yudea.”

8 Wanahina wamwidika, “Mfundiza,sambi sambi Wayahudi wa aho walondakukutowamabwe, abaho kofungamwanzaubwele kuko?”

9 Yesu kalonga, “Vino imisi yaduhumasaa longo na mabili? Avo wanhuwogenda imisi hawaikwala, kwavijawowona mulenge wa mwiisi ino. 10 Lakinikamba wahagenda ikilo woikwalakwavija waduhu mulenge.” 11 Yesuviyamambukize kulonga avo, kalonga,“Mbwigaetu Lazalo kawasa, lakini nocholakumulamusa.”

12 Wanahina wamwidika, “Mndewa,kamba kawasa kohona.”

13 Yesu kakala yofambula kamba Lazalokafa, lakini wanahina zake wagesa kakalayolonga kuwasa utulo. 14 Avo Yesu kawa-longela fulu ipile, “Lazalo kafa, 15 lakininodeng'helela mbuli yenu kwavija sikalilenayo muladi mutogole. Leka tucholenikumwake.”

16 Tomaso yakemigwe Pacha kawalon-gela wanahina wayage, “Tucholeni hikohamoja na Mfundiza, tukafe nayo!”

Yesu ayo uzilibuko na ugima17 Yesu viyavikile ako, kaluvika lukuli

20 Mata viyahulike kamba Yesu kakalayokwiza, kalawa kunze kumbokela,lakini Malia kasigala mng'anda. 21 Matakamulongela Yesu, “Mndewa, mazaukalile baha lumbu jangu sambi yafebule! 22 Lakini hata sambi nojuwa kambaMulungu kokugwaa kinhu chochosekiumpula.”

23 Yesu kamulongela, “Lumbu jakokozilibuka.”

24 Mata kedika, “Nojuwa kambakozilibuka mna isiku ya uhelelo.”

25 Yesu kamulongela, “Niye ayouzilibuko na ugima. Wanhu wosewonhogola wokuwa wagima, hatawahafa, 26 na wanhu wose weli wagimana wonhogola niye honda wafe bule.Kozitogola mbuli zino?”

27 Mata kedika, “Ona Mndewa, noto-gola kamba gweye ayo Kilisito Mkombola,Mwana wa Mulungu ija yezile mwiisi.”

Yesu kolila28 Mata viyalongile avo, kabweleganya

32 Malia kavika aho haakalile Yesu, ba-haja viyamone, kamfugamila, kalonga,“Mndewa, maza ukalile baha, lumbu jangusambi yafe bule!”

33 Yesu viyamone Malia kolila, naWayahudi wakalile nayo wolila vivija,kona usungu na kanyunyuwalamuumoyo.34Yesu kawauza, “Mumzikila kwahi?”

Wamwidika, “Mndewa izo ulole.”35 Yesu kalila. 36 Wayahudi walonga,

12Yesu kobakigwa mavuta ako BetaniaMat 26:6-13; Mlk 14:3-9

1 Zing'hali siku sita kuvika nyimwili ny-imwili ya Pasaka, Yesu kachola Betania,ukayake Lazalo, ayo iyamzilibule kulawakwa wafile. 2 Wanhu wamtandila lujolwa ichungulo baho, Mata ayo yakalileyomtaza kugola. Lazalo kakala imoja mnaiwanhu wakalile woja na Yesu. 3 AbahoMalia kasola nusu lita ya mavuta go-nung'hila goya ga bei ng'hulu ng'hani,kambakaza Yesu mmagulu, kagahangusakwa mvili zake. Ng'anda yose ikalabwiki bwiki mbuli ya gaja gamavuta go-nung'hila goya. 4 Yuda Isikaliote imojawa wanahina zake Yesu, ayo yonda ya-muhinduke Yesu, kalonga, 5 “Vino habalimavuta gano hagauzigwe kwa sente ma-gana madatu, na sente azo wagweleligwewanhu wakiwa?” 6 Kalonga vino siyo

7 Lakini Yesu kalonga, “Sekemumgaze!Mulekeni yatende vivo mbuli ya sikuyangu ya kuzikigwa. 8 Wanhu wakiwamokala nao siku zose, lakini hamkala naniye siku zose.”

Kiseto cha kumkoma Lazalo9Wayahudi wengi wahulika kamba Yesu

Yesu kokwingila Yelusalemu kwang'henze

Mat 21:1-11; Mlk 11:1-11; Luk 19:28-4012 Imitondo yake lunhu mkulu lwizile

kuna inyimwili nyimwili ya Pasakaluhulika kamba Yesu kakala yokwizaYelusalemu. 13 Avo wabena mibunho yambiki wa mtende na wachola kumbokela,wakemelela,“Mulungu yatogolwe!Mulungu yamtambikile munhu ayo yok-

wiza kwa twaga da Mndewa!Mulungu yamtambikile Mndewa wa

Izilaeli!”14 Yesu kamona mwana mhunda,

kamkwela mumgongo, kamba MaandikoGang'alile vigalonga,15 “Sekeudumbe, isi ya Sayuni!Hano kokwiza Mndewa wako,yakwelile mumgongo wa mwana

mhunda.”16 Kipindi acho wanahina zake hawai-

juwile mbuli ino. Lakini Yesu viyenuligwemuukulu, wakumbuka kamba MaandikoGang'alile galonga mbuli ino na wamten-dela kamba vivo.

17 Wanhu wakalile na Yesu kipindiviyamkemile Lazalo kulawa mdipanga nakumzilibula kulawa kwa wafile, wakalawogabwililisa gaja galawilile. 18 Lekaavolunhu lwa wanhu luchola kumbokela,kwavija luhulika unzonza uno uyatendile.19 Abaho Mafalisayo wailongela, “Mona,hatudaha kutenda chochose! Loleniwanhu wose wa mwiisi womkweleleza!”

Wagiliki wolonda kulonga na Yesu

20Wagiliki wayagwe wakala mumo mnaiwanhu wacholile Yelusalemu kutambikamna ikipindi cha nyimwili nyimwili yaPasaka. 21 Wachola kwa Filipo mwenekaewa Betisaida mwiisi ya Galilaya walonga,“Go mkulu, tolonda tumone Yesu.”

22 Filipo kachola na kumulongelaAndeleya, abaho wose wabili wacholakumulongela Yesu. 23 Yesu kawedika,“Sambi kipindi kivika cha Mwana waMunhu kubokela ukulu. 24Nowalongeleniukweli, mhule ya uhemba yosigala imojasiku zose mbaka ilagale hasi ife. Ilayahafa baho yolela na kuwa mhulenyingi. 25Munhu yoyose younogela ugimawake kowagiza, lakini munhu yoyoseyowihila ugima wake mwiisi ino kowikakwa ugima wa mazuwa gose. 26 Munhuyoyose yolonda kuwa msang'hanajiwangu kolondeka yanikweleleze, avomsang'hanaji wangu kokuwa na niye ahohonda niwe. Tatangu komgwaa nhogolwamunhu yoyose yonisang'hanila.

Yesu kolonga mbuli ya ifa yake27 “Sambi loho yangu yoluma, vino

nongeze? Nonge, ‘Tata, sambiutendekipindi kino kivike kumwangu’? Lakinilekaavo niza ili nibite kipindi kino chamadununzo. 28 Tata, uditogole twagajako!”

Abaho sauti ihulikigwa kulawa kuu-langa, “Niditogola, na notenda vivo ka-bili.”

29 Lunhu lwimile aho luihulika sautiayo, na wanhu wayagwe walonga, “Mu-lungu kaduma.” Kuno wayagwe walonga,“Msenga wa kuulanga kalonga nayo!”

30 Lakini Yesu kawalongela, “Sauti inohaihulikigwe mbuli ya niye, lakini mbuliyenu. 31 Sambi acho kipindi cha wanhuwa mwiisi ino kutagusigwa, na Mwenem-bago mkulu wa mwiisi ino kokwasigwa.32 Kipindi nahenuligwa uchanha kulawahasi, nomkwega kila munhu kumwangu.”33Kwa ulonzi uno Yesu kalagusa ifa yondayafe.

34 Lunhu lwa wanhu lumwidika,“Malagizo getu gotulongela kamba KilisitoMkombola kokuwa mgima siku zose.Habali kabili gweye kolonga Mwana waMunhu kolondeka yenuligwe uchanha?Vino ino Mwana wa Munhu ayo nani?”

Yohana 12:35 121 Yohana 13:1535 Yesu kawedika, “Mulenge wokala

na mweye kwa kipindi kidodo. Gen-deleleni na mwanza kung'hali na mu-lenge muladi ziza sekediwezile, kwavijamunhu yotembela mdiziza hajuwa kujakuyochola. 36 Utogoleni mulenge bahomulinao muladi muwe wanhu wa mu-lenge.”

Wanhu wolema kumtogola YesuYesu viyamambukize kulonga avo,

kasegela, wanhu hawamonile. 37 HamojaYesu kasang'hana unzonza mgamesogao, lakini hawamtogole bule. 38 Avokiyalongile mtula ndagu wa MulunguIsaya kilawilile.“Mndewa, nani yatogole usenga wetu utu-

Isaya vivija kalonga,40 “Mulungu kagafumba meso gaokazifunga nzewele zao,muladi meso gao sekegadahe kulola,na nzewele zao sekezidahe kujuwa.Sekewanibwelele niye, Mulungu kolonga,na niye nidahe kuwahonya.”

41 Isaya kalonga vino kwavija kawonaukulu wa Yesu na kalonga mbuli yake.

42 Avo wakulu wengi wa Wayahudiwamtogola Yesu, lakini mbuli yaMafalisayo hawadahile kulonga mbulizake kunze kunze, kwavija wadumbakuwingigwa mna ing'anda ya kumpulaMulungu. 43 Kwavija walonda nhogolwaza wanhu kubanza nhogolwa za Mulungu.

Mbuli ya Yesu yotagusa wanhu44 Yesu kakemelela, “Munhu yoyose

yonhogola niye, hanhogola niye niiyekalakini vivija komtogola ija yanhumile.45 Yoyose yonyona niye vivija komonaija yanhumile. 46 Niye niza mwiisiniwe mulenge, ili munhu yoyose yon-hogola sekeyasigale mdiziza. 47 Munhuyoyose youhulika usenga wangu nahalonda kuutogola, niye simtagusabule, kwavija sizile kuwatagusa wanhuwa mwiisi, ila kuwakombola. 48 Wosewonilema niye na kuulema usengawangu kabaho imoja yonda yawataguse.Mbuli zinongile zowatagusa mwiisikuya uhelelo! 49 Kwavija silongile kwaudahi wangu, lakini Tata yanhumilekanilagiza vinondeka kulonga. 50 Naniye nojuwa kamba lagizo jake dogala

13Yesu kowasunha magulu wanahina zake

1 Dikala ding'hali siku dimoja kuvikilanyimwili nyimwili ya Pasaka. Yesu kajuwakamba kipindi chake kivika cha kusegelamwiisi ino na kuchola kwa Tatake. Yesukakala yawanogele ng'hani wanhu zakeweli mwiisi, kawanogela siku zose.

2 Yesu na wanahina zake wakala muu-lujo lwa ichungulo. Mwenembago kakalayamalile kwingila muumoyo wa Yudamwanage Simoni Isikaliote, yamuhindukeYesu. 3Yesu kajuwa kamba Tata kamgwaavinhu vose mmakono gake. Na kajuwakamba kalawa kwa Mulungu na kocholakwaMulungu. 4Avo kenukamuulujo, kekahamgwazo mgolole wake, kasola kikumbi,kaifunga mkigudi. 5 Abaho kagida mazimwiinongo, kasonga kuwasunha maguluwanahina zake na kuwahangusa kwa kijakikumbi kiyaifungile mkigudi. 6 Yesukavika kwa Simoni Petulo, lakini Petulokamuuza, “Mndewa, vino gweye kolondakunisunha magulu niye?”

7Yesu kamwidika, “Kinhenda sambi gw-eye hukijuwa bule, lakini baho kumwandekokijuwa.”

8 Petulo kalonga, “Aka, gweye hu-nisunha magulu gangu hata siku dimoja!”

Yesu kamwidika, “Kamba sikusunhamagulu gako, honda uwe mwanahinawangu bule.”

9 Simoni Petulo kamwidika, “Mndewa,sekeusunhe magulu gangu gaiyeka, lakinivivija sunha makono gangu na palajangu!”

10 Yesu kamulongela, “Wanhu wosewakogile waduhu dikwe na hawalondekakuisunha, lakini magulu gao gaiyeka.Mwenye mung'ala, lakini siyo wose.”11Yesu kakala yajuwile mwaka nani yondayamuhinduke, lekaavo kalonga siyo wosemung'ala.

12 Yesu viyamambukize kuwasunhamagulu gao, kasola uja umgolole wake,kabwela hanhu hake haakalile muulujo.Kawauza, “Mujuwa habali niye nhendavino kumwenu? 13 Mweye mong'hemaniye Mfundiza na Mndewa, molonga goyakwavija vivo nili. 14 Niye Mndewa wenuna Mfundiza, niwasunha magulu genu.Avo na mweye molondeka muisunhemagulu genu. 15 Niye niwalagusila

Yesu kolagula kamba kohindukigwaMat 26:20-25; Mlk 14:17-21; Luk 22:21-23

21 Yesu viyamambukize kulonga avo,kona usungu ng'hani muumoyo wake, ka-longa fulu ipile, “Nowalongeleni ukweli,imoja wenu konihinduka.”

22 Wanahina wailola, kunowonyawanyawa nani yolongigwa.23 Mwanahina imoja, ija yanogeligweng'hani na Yesu, kakala behi na Yesu.24 Simoni Petulo kamfunya, kamulongela,“Muuze, komulonga nani.”

25 Avo mwanahina ija kamkwesela behing'hani Yesu, kamuuza, “Mndewa, komu-longa nani?”

26 Yesu kamwidika, “Munhu ijayonda nimgwee kihande cha gatechonda nizanhike mbakuli, ayo munhumwenyego.” Abaho kasola kihandecha gate, kazanhika, kamgwaa Yudamwanage Simoni Isikaliote. 27 BahajaYuda viyasolile digate, Mwenembagokamwingila. Yesu kamulongela, “Tendahimahima kiulonda kutenda!” 28 Kuduhumunhu mna iwaja wakalile muulujoyajuwile habali Yesu yamulongele vivo.29 Kwavija Yuda kakala yopapa mkobawa zisente, wanahina wayagwe wagesaYesu kamulongela yachole kugula kijakilondeke mwiinyimwili nyimwili yaPasaka, hebu yawagwee kinhu wakiwa.

30Bahaja Yuda kadibokela gate, kacholakunze. Ikala ikilo.

Lagizo da sambi31 Yuda viyasegele, Yesu kalonga,

“Sambi ukulu wa Mwana wa Munhuwogubuligwa, na ukulu wa Mulungu

wogubuligwa mgati mmwake. 32 Nakamba ukulu wa Mulungu wogubuligwakubitila heyo, baho Mulungu kougubulaukulu wa Mwana wa Munhu kumwakemwenyego, na kotenda vivo himahima.33 Wanangu, nokala na mweye kipindikidodo.

Kamba niye viniwanogele, namweye muinogele vivo. 35Mwahainogela,baho kila munhu kojuwa kamba mweyemwa wanahina zangu.”

Yesu kolagula kamba Petulo kombelaMat 26:31-35; Mlk 14:27-31; Luk 22:31-34

36 Simoni Petulo kamuuza, “Mndewa,kochola kwahi?”

Yesu kamwidika, “Hudaha kuniwinzasambi kuja kunyhola, lakini bahokumwande koniwinza.”

37 Petulo kamuuza, “Mndewa, habalisidaha kukuwinza sambi? Niye nodahakufa mbuli ya gweye!”

38 Yesu kamwidika, “Vino gweye kwelikodaha kufa mbuli ya niye? Nokulon-gela ukweli, nzogolo yang'hali hanakwikakonibela miyanza midatu.”

14Yesu nzila ya kuchola kwa Tata

1 Yesu kawalongela, “Sekemudumbe nakunyawanyawa. Momtogola Mulungu,nhogoleni na niye vivija. 2 Mng'andaya Tatangu kuna magati mengi, mazahaili vivo sambi niwalongele. Nocholakuwatandileni hanhu. 3 Nahachola nakuwatandileni hanhu, nobwela na kuwa-sola ili mkale na niye aho honikala.4Muijuwa nzila ya hanhu honichola.”

5 Tomaso kamulongela, “Mndewa,hatukujuwile kwahi kuuchola, vinotoijuwaze inzila?”

6 Yesu kamwidika, “Niye ayo nzila,ukweli na ugima. Kuduhu munhu yocholakwa Tata kamba habitile kumwangu.7 Yesu kawalongela, Maza munjuwileniye, mwahamjuwile na Tatangu vivija.Kulawa sambi na kugendelela mumjuwana mumona.”

8 Filipo kamulongela, “Mndewa, tula-gusile Tata, acho tukilonda tu.”

9 Yesu kamwidika, “Nikala na mweyesiku zose, avo lelo hunjuwile vilihiFilipo? Munhu yoyose yanyonile niye,

29 Petulo na watumigwa wayagwewedika, “Tolondeka tumtegelezeMulungusiyo wanhu. 30 Mweye mumkomakwa kumuwamba mumsalaba, lakiniMulungu wa wahenga zetu kamzilibulaYesu kulawa kwa wafile. 31 Mulungukamwinula mbaka mwambu wa mkonowake wa kudila kamtenda Mulangulizi naMkombola, kuwatenda wanhu wa Izilaeliwaleke nzambi zao na Mulungu yazigelekumgongo. 32 Tweye tuzona mbuli azo,tweye na Loho Yang'alile, yeli nhunza yaMulungu kwa wose womtogola.”

33 Wanhu wa mkitala viwahulike avo,wagevuzika ng'hani walonda kuwakomaiwatumigwa. 34 Lakini imoja wao,Mfalisayo yakemigwe Gamalieli yakalilemfundiza Malagizo ga Musa yadumbigweng'hani na wanhu wose, kema aho mki-tala.

10Petulo na Kolinelio

1 Kukala na munhu imoja mwiisi yaKaisalia yakemigwe Kolinelio, kalala

mkulu wa kibumbila cha wakalizi gana waKilumi kikemigwe, “Kibumbila cha Italia.”2 Kakala munhu yomdumba Mulungu,heyo na wanhu wose wa mulubugalwake wamgwaa ukulu Mulungu. Vivijakasang'hana ng'hani kuwataza wanhuwakiwa na kakala yompula Mulungu sikuzose. 3 Siku dimoja saa tisa imisi, Mulungukamulagusila kinhu, kamona msengawa kuulanga wa Mulungu kamwizilakamulongela, “Kolinelio!”

4 Kolinelio kamulola bunhuu msengaayo wa kuulanga kwa bwembwe kamulon-gela, “Go mkulu, kuna choni?”

Msenga wa kuulanga kamwidika,“Mulungu kanogelwa kumpula kwakona sang'hano ya kuwataza wakiwa, nayohakusemwa bule. 5 Watume wanhusambi baha, wachole Yopa kwa munhuimoja yokemigwa Simoni Petulo. 6 Heyomgeni mna ikae ya munhu yokemigwaSimoni, muwamba ng'hwembe, kokalabehi ya Bahali.” 7 Abaho msenga ayo wakuulanga kasegela, Kolinelio kawakemawasang'hanaji zake wabili namkalizi wakeimoja wa iwasang'hanaji zake, yomdumbaMulungu. 8 Kawalongela kija kilawilile,abaho kawatuma wachole Yopa.

9 Siku diyagwe viwakalile mnzila behina Yopa, imisi Petulo kachola kudigatida uchanha kumpula Mulungu. 10 Konanzala na kalonda kuja kinhu chochose,lujo vilukalile lotandigwa,Mulungu kamu-lagusila kinhu. 11 Kona ulanga ugubukana kona kinhu kamba mgolole mkuluuwambigwe mhande zake nne wohumu-lusigwa hasi. 12 Mgati yake kukala nawanyama wose na wang'onyo wotambalana ndege. 13 Kahulika sauti yomulongela,“Petulo, lamuka uchinje uje!”

14 Lakini Petulo kalonga, “Aka, Mndewa,sinakuja bule kinhu kigomigwe hebu ki-hile.”

15 Sauti imulongela kabili, “Sekeu-vikeme viha vinhu viyatendile Mulunguvinoge.” 16 Mbuli ino ilawilila miyanzamidatu, abaho kinhu acho kigaligwakuulanga.

17 Petulo viyakalile kokanganya fam-bulo da kinhu acho, wanhu watumigwena Kolinelio wavika hana ing'anda ya Si-moni, na wakala wemile haulongozi wa ul-wivi. 18Wakema, wauza, “Vino hano hanamgeni yoyose yokemigwa Simoni Petulo?”

Imitondo yake kaitanda kachola nao nawanhu wayagwe wamtogole Yesu kulawaYopa wachola nayo. 24 Imitondo yakewavikamwiisi ya Kaisalia. Kolinelio kakalakowabeta, hamoja na ndugu na mbwigazake wa behi yawagoneke. 25 Petuloviyakalile behi kuvika, Kolinelio kenukakamcholela, kagwa kingubanguba kam-tambikila. 26 Petulo kamwinula, kamulon-gela, “Inuka, niye mwenyego na munhukamba gweye.” 27 Petulo kagendelelakulonga na Kolinelio viyakalile kokwingilamng'anda, mumo kawavika wanhu wengiwaiting'hana. 28 Petulo kawalongela,“Mweye wenyego mujuwa goya kambaMuyahudi kagomigwa na malagizo gakesekeyamtembelele hebu kuilumba namunhu hali Muyahudi. Lakini Mulungukandagusila sekenimkeme munhu yoyosekeha hebu hafaya. 29 Na viundagize,silemile bule niza, avo nokuuza kabilikung'hemela choni?”

30Kolinelio kalonga, “Siku ndatu zibitilemna isaa kamba ino, saa tisa imisi, ng'halanimpula Mulungu mng'anda yangu. Ba-hajamunhu yavalile viwalo vizelu chuwee,kema haulongozi wangu, 31 kalonga, ‘Ko-linelio!

Sambi wose twabaha haulongozi waMulungu, tobetela kuhulika mbuli yoyoseyakulagize Mndewa ulonge.”

Ulonzi wa Petulo

34 Baho Petulo kasonga kulonga,“Sambi nojuwa kweli Mulungu hambagulamunhu yoyose. 35 Wose womgwaaukulu na kutenda ganogile kowatogola,hatonga wolawa isi gani. 36 Muujuwausenga uyaugalile kwa wanhu wa Izilaeli,kuwapetela wanhu Mbuli Inogile igalatindiwalo kubitila Yesu Kilisito yeliMndewa wa wanhu wose. 37 Muzijuwambuli ng'hulu zitendeke mwiisi yose yaWayahudi, kusongela Galilaya, Yohanaviyamalile kuwapetela wanhu usengawake wa ubatizo. 38 Mumjuwa Mulunguviyamsagule Yesu wa Nazaleti kwakumgwaa Loho Yang'alile na udahi.

Kwavija kabwelana kuwaleka wao ako Pamfulia. 39 Avowaibamilila, abaho waigola Balinabakamsola Yohana Maluko wakwela meliwachola Kupulo. 40 Lakini Paulokamsagula Sila, wanhu wa ako wamtogoleYesu wampulila ng'hekewa ya Mndewa,abaho kasegela. 41Kachola Siliya na Kilikiana kuwagangamiza wanhu wamtogoleYesu mziisi azo.

16Timoseo koilumba na Paulo na Sila

1 Paulo kavika Delibe na Lusitila, akokukala na mwanahina wa Yesu imojayakemigwe Timoseo. Mamake kakalaMuyahudi yamtogole Yesu, lakini tatakekakala Mgiliki. 2 Wanhu wose wamto-gole Yesu ako Lusitila na Ikonia wamto-gola Timoseo. 3 Paulo kalonda kum-sola Timoseo, avo kamwingiza kumbi.Katenda vivo kwavija Wayahudi wosewakalile ako wajuwa kamba tatake Tim-oseo kakala Mgiliki. 4 Viwakalile wobitamna gamabuga gaja wawagwaa wanhumalagizo galavigwe na watumigwa nawavele ako Yelusalemu, wawalongela wa-gagoge. 5 Wanhu wamtogole Yesu mziisiazo wagangamizigwamna ukutamanila nawanhu wongezeka kila siku.

Paulo kalagusiligwa kinhu ako Tuloasi6 Wabitila isi ya Fulugia na Galatia

Mndewa kam-fungula umoyo kadaha kuzibokela mbuliziyalongile Paulo. 15 Heyo na wanhu wamulubuga lwake viwamambukize kuba-tizigwa katugoneka, kalonga, “Mwahany-ona nomtamanila Mndewa mwize ukaemukale.” Avo katunanahiza ng'hani tuc-hole.

Paulo na Sila wogogigwa16 Siku dimoja vitukalile tochola hanhu

Mtumwa ayokawapatila sente nyingi wakulu zakembuli ya kulagula. 17 Avo mndele ayokamkweleleza Paulo na tweye, kunokokemelela, “Wanhu wano wasang'hanajiwa Mulungu Yeli Uchanha Ng'hani!Wowapeteleni nzila ya kukomboligwa!”18Katenda avo kwa sikunyingi,mbaka sikudimoja Paulo kagevuzika, kahinduka ka-mulongela iyo ikinyamkela, “Nokulagizakwa twaga daYesu Kilisitomulawemndeleino!” Bahaja kinyamkela kamulawa.

19 Iwakulu wa mndele ayo viwone nzilayao ya kupata sente isegela, wawagogaPaulo na Sila, wawabulula mbaka haulon-gozi wa iwakulu. 20Wawagala kwa wasemi

Abaho wasemi wawavula viwalo Paulona Sila na walagiza watoigwe mbalati.23 Viwamambukize kuwatowa ng'hani,wawagodeka mkifungo, mkulu wa kifungokalagilizigwa yaweke muukalizi mkulu.24 Viyapatile ndagilizi zizo, kawekamdigati dili mgati ng'hani na kagafungamagulu gao mzimhanda.

25Kilo kikulu Paulona SilawampulaMu-lungu na kumwimbila nyila za kumtogola,wafungwa wayao wakala wowategeleza.26 Bahaja ulawilila mtigisiko mkulu wa isi,mhanda za kifungo zitigisika. Baho nyivizose zivuguka na nzabi ziwagodekigwe zi-funguka. 27Mkalizi wa ikifungo kalamuka.Viyone nyivi za kifungo zivuguka, kagizawafungwawakimbila, avo kasomola pangajake yaikome mwenyego. 28 Lakini Paulokakemelela ng'hani, “Sekeuikome! Tweyewose twa baha!”

29 Mkalizi wa kifungo kapula taaigaligwe, kazumhila mng'anda, kalagalilammagulu ga Paulo na Sila kuno kogwaya.30 Abaho kawalava kunze kawauza, “Mowakulu, nhende choni ng'homboligwe?”

31 Wamwidika, “Mtogole MndewaYesu na gweye kokomboligwa hamojana wanhu wa mulubuga lwako.” 32 Avowampetela mbuli ya Mndewa hamojana wanhu wa mulubuga lwake. 33 Mnaisaa iija ya ikilo mkalizi wa kifungokawasola Paulo na Sila kawasunha vilondavao, abaho bahaja heyo na wanhu wamulubuga lwake wabatizigwa. 34 Abahokawagala Paulo na Sila uchanhamng'andayake na kawagwaa lujo. Heyo na wanhuwa mulubuga lwake wadeng'helelang'hani, kwavija sambi wakala wamtogoleMulungu.

35 Imitondo yakewakuluwa Lumiwawa-tuma wakulu wa wakalizi kuno wawalag-iza, “Walekeni wanhu wao wachole.”

36 Avo mkulu wa kifungo kamulongelaPaulo, “Iwakulu watulagiza tuwafungulilegweye na Sila. Avo choleni moyo uholile.”

37 Lakini Paulo kawalongela iwakuluwa wakalizi, “Watutowa mgameso gawanhu hamoja hatubanange mbuli,tweye twa wenekae wa Lumi lakini

38 Wakulu wa wakalizi wawalongelambuli zino wakulu wa Lumi, na iwakuluviwahulike Paulo na Sila wakala wenekaewa Lumi, wadumba ng'hani. 39 Avoweza na kuwapula wagele kumgongombuli ziwawatendele, abaho wawalavamkifungo, wawapula wasegele kudibugadija. 40 Paulo na Sila walawa mkifungowachola mng'anda ya Lidia. Mumowawavika Wakilisito, wawalongela mbuliza kuwagangamiza, abaho walawanya.

17Ako Sesalonike

Kwa siku ndatuza Kubwihila kalonga na wanhu, kwaMaandiko Gang'alile, 3 kuwalagusilakamba Kilisito Mkombola kalondekayadununzike na kuzilibuka kwa wafile,Paulo kawalongela, “InoYesu inimsimulilakumwenu, iyo Kilisito Mkombola.”4 Wanhu wayagwe watogola wailumbana Paulo na Sila, vivija walangulizi wakitwanzi na bumbila daWagiliki womgwaaukulu Mulungu watenda vivo.

5 Lakini Wayahudi wona migongo,wawasola wanhu wehile kulawa kunadigulilo, watenda bumbila na kugalaugomvi mwiisi ayo yose. Wengilamng'anda ya Yasoni kuwazahila Paulona Sila wawagale mgameso ga wanhu.6 Lakini hawawapatile bule, avo wawabul-ula Yasoni na wanhu wayagwe wamtogoleYesu mgameso ga wakulu wa buga dijawakemelela, “Wanhuwanowagala ndwagikila hanhu!

Yesu wawagala Paulo na Sila ako Beleya.

Sang'hano 17:11 154 Sang'hano 18:2Viwavikile ako wengila mng'anda yakumpula Mulungu. 11 Wanhu wa Beleyawakala wotegeleza vinogile ng'hanikubanza wanhuwa Sesalonike. Wauhulikausenga awo kwa kusulukila, kila sikuwakala wogalolesa goya MaandikoGang'alile, wone kamba Paulo kakalayolonga kweli. 12Wanhu wengi watogola,na watwanzi wengi wa Kigiliki wakalilewakulu watogola na vivija wambigalowengi watogola. 13 Lakini Wayahudiwakalile Sesalonike viwahulike Paulovivija kawapetela mbuli ya Mulunguwanhu wa Beleya, wachola ako na kugalandwagi na kuwading'hula wanhu wao.14Bahaja wanhuwamtogole YesuwamgalaPaulo mhwani lakini Sila na Timoseowasigala Beleya. 15 Wanhu wakalilewomsindikiza Paulo wachola nayo mbakaAsene, abaho wabwela Beleya na usengakulawa kwa Paulo, kamba Sila na Timoseosekewakawe kuchola kumwake.

Ako Asene16 Paulo vikalile kowabeta Sila na

Timoseo ako Asene kagevuzika ng'haniviyonile buga dijo dimema vinyago vamilungu. 17 Avo kakala kolonga naWayahudi na wanhu haweli Wayahudiwomgwaa ukulu Mulungu mng'andaya kumpula Mulungu. Na kila sikukakala yolonga na wanhu wakalile mnagamagulilo. 18Wanhu waifunzile nzeweleza Epiluko na Stoiki hawamtogolele,wayagwe walonga, “Ubozi gani woolongamunhu ino?”

Wayagwe wedika, “Yokoneka kolongambuli ya milungu haijuwika?” Walongaavo kwavija Paulo kakala yowapetelambuli ya Yesu na kuzilibuka. 19 Avowamsola Paulo wamgala kwa wanhuwa mkitala cha Aleopago cha buga dija,walonga, “Tolonda kujuwa mbuli yagano mafundizo ga sambi goulonga.20 Vinhu viyagwe vituhulike kolongatona vifukuzi kumwetu, tolonda tujuwefambulo dambuli izo.” 21Kwavijawenekaena wageni wose wa Asene na wanhuwayagwe wakalile ako wakala wosimulilana kuilongela mbuli izo za sambi kipindichose.

22 Paulo kema haulongozi wa wanhu wamkitala cha buga da Aleopago kalonga,“Vinikona niye mweye wanhu wa Asenemwa wanhu wa dini. 23 Kwavija vinikalilenotembela mwiisi yenu ndola kila hanhu

Mulungu kawala-gusila mbuli ino kwa kumzilibula munhuayo kulawa kwa wafile!”

32 Viwamuhulike Paulo kolonga mbuliya kuzilibuka kwa wafile, wanhu wayagwewamzeha, lakini wayagwe walonga,“Tolonda kuihulika kabili mbuli ino.”33 Avo Paulo kawaleka kasegela mkitala.34 Wanhu wayagwe watogole wailumbana Paulo, mna iwao kakala Diyonisiyo,yakalile munhu wa mkitala, vivija kukalana mtwanzi yakemigwe Damali na wanhuwayagwe.

18Paulo ako Kolinto

1Vigamalile gano, Paulo kasegela Asenekachola Kolinto. 2 Ako Kolinto kamvikaMuyahudi yakemigwe Akula, mwenekaewa Ponto, yabwelile kulawa Italia hamojana mtwanzi wake Pilisila, kwavija

Sang'hano 18:3 155 Sang'hano 19:2Kaisali Kilaudio kalagiza Wayahudi wosewasegele Lumi. Paulo kachola kuwalola,3 kwavija awo wakala mafundi wa kusonamahema kamba Paulo, avo kakala nao nakusang'hana. 4 Kila siku ya Kubwihilakakala kolonga na wanhu mng'anda yakumpula Mulungu, kageza kuwakwegaWayahudi na Wagiliki.

5 Sila na Timoseo viwasegele Makedo-nia, Paulo kasonga kuwapetela wanhukipindi chake chose, kuwalagusilaWayahudi kamba Yesu kakala KilisitoMkombola. 6Viwamulemele na kumuliga,kakung'huna nhimbwisi ya viwalo vakekalonga, “Kamba mwahapotela mmhanewenyego, niye namduhu. Kulawa sambi nakugendelela nochola kwa wanhu haweliWayahudi.” 7 Avo kawaleka kacholakukala mng'anda ya munhu imoja haliMuyahudi twaga jake Tito Yusito, yakalilemunhu yomgwaa ukuluMulungu, ng'andayake ikala behi na ng'anda ya kumpulaMulungu. 8 Kilisipo yakalile mkulu wang'anda ya kumpula Mulungu kamtogolaMndewa hamoja na wanhu wose wamulubuga lwake na wanhu wayagwewengi wauhulike usenga awo mwiisi yaKolinto, watogola na wabatizigwa.

9 Siku dimoja ikilo Mndewa kamu-lagusila Paulo kinhu, kamulongela,“Sekeudumbe, gendelela kuwapetelawanhu sekeubwele kukisogo, 10kwavija nahamoja na gweye. Kuduhu munhu yondayadahe kukulumiza kwavija kudibugadino ninao wanhu wengi.” 11 Avo Paulokakala ako mwaka mgima na miezi sitakowafundiza wanhu mbuli ya Mulungu.

12 Lakini kipindi Galio viyakalile mkuluwa isi ya Akaya, Wayahudi waiting'hana,wamgoga Paulo wamgala mkitala.13 Walonga, “Munhu ino kowatendawanhu wamgwee ukulu Mulungu bilakukweleleza Malagizo.”

14 Paulo yang'hali hanalonga mbuli,Galio kawalongelaWayahudi, “Mazaikalilembuli ya ubavi hebu ubananzi nahawa-tegeleze. 15 Lakini kwavija moibamililambuli ya matwaga na malagizo genuwenyego, lamuleni mweye wenyegoniye silonda kuwa msemi bule. 16 Bahokawawinga mkitala. 17 Abaho wosewamgoga Sositene yakalile mkulu wang'anda ya kumpula Mulungu, wamtowabahaja haulongozi wa kitala. Lakini Galiohaitongile bule mbuli iyo.”

Paulo kobwela kabili Antiokia18 Paulo kakala Kolinto siku nyingi

Yang'halihanakwela meli kuchola Kenkela, tanhukasenya mvili zake kwavija kakalayaiduile. 19 Viwavikile Efeso baho Paulokawaleka Pilisikila na Akula, kengilamng'anda ya kumpula Mulungu kulongana Wayahudi. 20 Wanhu wampulayakale siku nyingi lakini kawalemela.21 Lakini viyakalile kosegela kawalongela,“Mulungu yahalonda nobwela kabilikumwenu.” Avo kakwela meli kasegelaEfeso.

22 Viyavikile Kaisalia kacholaYelusalemu kuwalamusa wanhu wamto-gole Yesu, abaho kachola Antiokia.23 Kakala siku ndodo, kasegela kubitilaGalatia na Fulugia kuwagangamizawanahina wose wa Yesu.

Apolo kowapetela wanhu ako Efeso naKolinto

24 Kipindi acho kukala na Muyahudiimoja yakemigwe Apolo, mwenekae waAlekizandilia keza Efeso. Kakala munhuyajuwile kulonga na ubala wa MaandikoGang'alile. 25 Kakala yafundizigwenzila ya Mndewa, yang'hali hanavulalakalonga mbuli za Yesu, kawafundizagoya hamoja kakala yaujuwile ubatizowa Yohana wiiyeka. 26 Pilisila na Akulaviwamuhulike kolonga bila kudumbamng'anda ya kumpula Mulungu, wamsolawamgala ukayao wamfambulila goyambuli za Mulungu. 27 Apolo viyalondilekuchola Akaya, wanhu wamtogole Yesuwamgangamiza kwa kuwandikila baluwawanahina wa Yesu ako Akaya wambokele.Viyavikile ako kwa udahi wa ng'hekewaya Mulungu kadaha kuwataza wanhuwa ako wamtogole Yesu. 28 Kwa ubalawake wa kulonga kawahuma Wayahudihaulongozi ha iwanhu wose kwa kulagusaMaandiko Gang'alile kamba Yesu iyoKilisito Mkombola.

19Paulo ako Efeso

1Apolo viyakalile Kolinto, Paulo kacholakubitila mvijiji na kavika Efeso. Akokawavika wanahina wayagwe. 2 Kawauza,“Vimumtogole Yesu mubokela LohoYang'alile?”

Sang'hano 19:3 156 Sang'hano 19:31Wamwidika, “Aka, hata kuhulika hatu-

nahulika kamba kuna Loho Yang'alile.”3 Paulo kawauza, “Vino mubatizigwa

5 Viwahulike avo, wabatizigwa kwatwaga da Mndewa Yesu 6 Paulo kawekilamakonona LohoYang'alile kawahumuluk-ila, walonga kwa ulonzi uyagwe na vivijawalagula usenga wa Mulungu. 7Wose kwawose wakala wanhu longo na wabili.

8 Kwa kipindi cha miezi midatu Paulokakala yochola mng'anda ya kumpula Mu-lungu, kakala kolonga nao muladi yawa-gale Muundewa wa Mulungu. 9 Lakiniwayagwewakala wadala, walema kutogolawasonga kulonga vihile mbuli ya Mndewamna iwanhu. Baho Paulo kawaleka kawa-sola wanahina wa Mndewa, kakala ko-longa nao kila siku mdigati da kuifunzilada Tulano. 10 Mbuli zino zigendelela kwakipindi cha miyaka mibili mbaka wanhuwose wakalile mwiisi ya Asiya, Wayahudina wanhu haweli Wayahudi, waihulikambuli ya Mndewa.

Wana wa Sikewa11 Mulungu katenda mbuli za unzonza

ng'hulu kubitila Paulo. 12 Wanhuwakala wosola vikumbi na viwaloviyagwe viyasang'hanile Paulo, wavigalakwa watamu, nao wahonyigwa nawaja wakalile na vinyamkela walav-igwa. 13 Wayahudi wayagwe wahungavinyamkelawachola kuno na kunowogezakusang'hanila twaga da Mndewa Yesu.Wawalongela vinyamkela, “Nowalagizakwa twaga da Yesu ayo yopetigwa naPaulo mulawe.” 14 Kukala na wana sabawa Muyahudi imoja, mulava nhosa mkuluyakemigwe Sikewa, nao watenda vivo.

15 Lakini kinyamkela kawalongela,“Yesu nimjuwa goya na Paulo nimjuwagoya, lakini mweye kina nani?”

16 Abaho munhu ayo yakumbigwena ikinyamkela kawazumhila wosekawahuma nguvu. Na wao wanageSikewe wakimbila kulawa mng'andaayo kuno wolawa damu na viwalo vaovidegekadegeka. 17 Wayahudi wose nawanhu haweli Wayahudi wakalile Efeso

Wose wengilabwembwe, na kudigwaa nhogolwa twagada Mndewa Yesu. 18 Wanhu wengiwamtogole Yesu weza walonga mgamesoga wanhu mbuli ziwatendile. 19 Wanhuwengi wayagwe wakalile wahawi ahohaichanduso, wadondoleza vitabu vaona kuvisoma moto haulongozi wao,wagelegeza sente ya vitabu avo yovikamagana malongo matano. 20Avo mbuli yaMndewa yenela na iwa na nguvu ng'hani.

Ndwagi ako Efeso21 Vigamalile gano, Paulo kachola

23 Kipindi acho kukala na ndwagi akoEfeso mbuli ya Mndewa. 24 Kukala namunhu imoja twaga jake Demetiliyokakala yosongola vinyago va ng'anda yamulungu wa kitwanzi yakemigwe Atemi,sang'hano ino iwatenda waja watumigwazake wamwede ng'hani. 25 Demetiliyokawakema hamoja wao iwasang'hanajina wayagwe wakalile na sang'hanokamba ayo, kawalongela, “Wambigalowayangu mojuwa topata sente kulawamwiisang'hano ino. 26 Lelo mohulika nakona wenyego mbuli ziyatendile Paulosiyo hano Efeso kwiiyeka, lakini vivijakose mwiisi ya Asiya. Kawading'hulana kuwatenda wanhu watogole kambamulungu yatendigwe kwa makono gawanhu hali mulungu bule. 27 Kokuwana zumozumo kamba sang'hano yetuyobezigwa na ng'anda ya mulungu wakitwanzi Atemi yolongigwa siyo kinhu nakusegezeligwa ukulu wake. Mulungu inokogweleligwa ukulu na wanhu wose waAsiya na wose weli mwiisi!”

28 Wanhu viwahulike vivo wagevuzika,wasonga kukemelela, “Atemi iyo mkuluwa Efeso!” 29 Buga jose dimemandwagi. Wanhu wawagoga Gayo naAlisitaliko, wenekae wa Makedonia,wakalile muumwanza na Paulo, wakimbilambaka kuna digati da mwangalo. 30 Paulokalonda kuchola kuna ulunhu, lakiniwanahina wa Yesu wamgomesa. 31Wakuluwayagwe wa isi ayo, wakalile mbwigazake, vivija wamtumila usenga wampulasekeyachole kuna digati da mwangalo.

35Abaho kalani wa buga dija kawatendawanhu wanyamale kawalongela, “Mweyewenekae wa Efeso, kila munhu kojuwawanhu wa isi ino ya Efeso awo wokalizang'anda ya mulungu Atemi na vivijaawo wokaliza mabwe mazelu galagalekulawa kuulanga. 36 Kuduhu munhuyodaha kuibela mbuli ino.

Paulo koigombela haulongozi wa mkuluwa isi ya Yudea Felikisi

10Mkulu ayo kamwinulila Paulo mkonomuladi yalonge, na Paulo kalonga,“Nodeng'helela kuigombela haulongoziwako kwavija nojuwa miyaka heleketwagweye kwa msemi wa isi ino. 11 Gweyemwenyego kujuwa kamba zibita sikulongo na mbili ziiyeka toka nyholeYelusalemu kumtambikila Mulungu.12 Wayahudi hawambonile ngombena munhu Mng'anda ya Mulunguhebu wambone nowading'hula wanhu,siyo mng'anda ya kumpula Mulunguhebu hanhu hohose kudibuga. 13 Naohawadaha kukulagusila kitala kiwanigalilehano. 14 Lakini niye notogola nomgwaaukulu Mulungu wa wahenga zetu nakuikweleleza nzila ayo iwoikema yauvizi.

9 Lakini Fesito kalonda nhogolwa kwaWayahudi, avo kamuuza Paulo, “Koto-gola kuchola Yelusalemu ukatagusigweako mgameso gangu mbuli ya gano?”

10 Paulo kalonga, “Niye nokwima hanomkitala chaMndewamkuluwa Lumi, hanobaho nilondeka kutagusigwa.

25 Paulo kamwidika, “Go mkulu, sik-wingililigwa bule, vinonga niye ukweliwiiyeka. 26 Mndewa Agilipa! Kumwakonolonga bila kudumba kwavija mbuli zinozose kuzijuwa goya.

28 Agilipa kamulongela Paulo, “Viugesakwa kipindi kino kidodo kodaha kunhendaniwe mkilisito?”

29 Paulo kamwidika, “Kiwe kipindi ki-dodo hebu kitali nompula Mulungu gweyena mweye mose munhegeleza hano lelomuwe kamba vinili niye, lakini bila miny-ololo!”

30 Baho Mndewa Agilipa, na mkulu waisi, Benike na waja wose wakalile hamojanao, wenuka. 31 Viwakalile wosegela wai-longela, “Munhu ino hatendile mbuli yakumtenda yafe hebu yagodekigwe mki-fungo.” 32 Nayo Agilipa kamulongela Fe-sito, “Maza munhu ino halondile kucholakumwande kwa Mndewa mkulu wa Lumiyahafunguligwe.”

27Paulo kogaligwa Lumi

1Viwaitogolele tuchole Italia, wawagelaPaulo na wafungwa wayagwe mmakonoga Juliasi, mkulu wa kibumbila chawakalizi wa Lumi, kikemigwe, “Kibumbilacha Mndewa wa Lumi.” 2 Tukwelameli ilawile Adilamito, ikalile yochola

mhwani ya isi ya Asiya na tusongaumwanza. Alisitaliko, mwenekae waMakedonia kulawa Sesalonike kakalana tweye. 3 Imitondo yake tuvikaSidoni. Juliasi kamonela bazi Paulo nakamtogolela yachole kuwalola mbwigazake, yagweleligwe kiyalondile. 4 Kulawaako tugendelela na mwanza kwavijaubeho ukala wobuma kwiza kumwetu, avotubitila kisiwa chaKupulo kukalile kuduhuubeho. 5Abaho tuloka bahali ya Kilikia naPamfulia, tuvika kudibuga da Mula mwiisiya Lukia. 6 Baho mkulu ayo kayona meling'hulu yolawaAlekizandilia ikala yocholaItalia, avo katukweza.

9 Aho tuhakala ng'hani, mbaka kipindicha kufunga kuja kikala kibitile, kwavijakipindi acho kikala hakinogile bulekugenda kwa meli. Avo Paulo kawazuma,10 “Wayangu, vinikona mwanza unowokuwa na magayo mengi na kwagizavinhu vingi vikwezigwe mwiimeli, vivijakwagiza ugima wetu.” 11 Lakini mkuluwa wakalizi kanogelwa na kija kiyalongilemulosaji na mwene meli siyo gajagayalongile Paulo. 12 Kwavija hanhuaho hakala hehile na kikala kipindicha kihuhwe, wanhu wengi wanogelwakugendelela na mwanza yahadahikawavike Foiniki. Foiniki ayo bandali yaKilete ichola kusini kudihongela zuwana kasikazini kudihongela zuwa, akowahadahile kukala kipindi cha kihuhwe.

21 Viwakalile kipindi kitali bila kuja,Paulo kema haulongozi wao kawalongela,“Wayangu maza munhegeleze niye nakuleka kuchola Kilete, sambi gatupatema-gayo gano gose na ubananzi uno. 22 Lakinisambi nowapula, gangamaleni!

27 Kilo cha longo na nne, twasigwa naubeho kuna ibahali ya Meditelania, kilokikulu walosaji wasinhukila wa behi naisi inyalile. 28 Wahumulusa hasi luzabilufungigwe kinhu kizito kuzahila utaliwa mazi, wapata utali wa mita malongomane. Abaho watenda vivo kabili wapatamalongo madatu. 29 Wadumba kambaimeli sekeichole kuna gamabwe avowahumulusa nanga nne kukisogo chaimeli, wapula uche hima hima. 30 Abahowalosaji walonda kutoloka, wahumulusaikigalawa kidodo mgamazi na waitendawochola kwika nanga kuulongozi waimeli. 31 Lakini Paulo kamulongelamkulu wa wakalizi na wakalizi, “Kambawalosaji wano hawasigala mumunomwiimeli, sambimutamanile kuhonyeka.”32 Avo wakalizi wazikanha nzabi ziigogilengalawa ndodo na kuileka ichole.

33 Usiku haunakucha, Paulo kawapula

Mvula isongakutowa na kukala na beho, avo wabwinhamoto na kutugoneka. 3 Paulo kadondolangodi kakala yozika muumoto, mbuliya umoto awo mgendela hasi kalawamzingodi kamuluma Paulo na kuizingilizamumkono wake. 4 Wenekae wa ahoviwamone mgendela hasi mumkono waPaulo wailongela, “Vitukona munhu ino

Paulo viyawaonilekamgwaa nhogolwa Mulungu.

Paulo kudibuga da Lumi16 Vituvikile kudibuga da Lumi, Paulo

17Vizibitile siku ndatu, Paulo kawakemahamoja walangulizi wa Kiyahudi wahanhu aho. Viwaiting'hane kawalongela,“Waizilaeli wayangu, hamoja sitendilembuli yoyose ihile kwa wanhu zetuhebu kwa vihendo vetu vitubokelekwa wahenga zetu, ngodekigwa ako

21 Wao wamulongela, “Tweyehatubokele baluwa yoyose kulawa Yudeambuli yako wala kuduhu munhu yoyoseyezile hano na kulonga mbuli zakohebu yalonge chochose kihile kumwako.22 Lakini yokuwa vinoga tukuhulikemwenyego ulonge magesa gako, kwavijatweye tojuwa kamba kila hanhu wanhuwokilema kibumbila kino.”

23Avo wapanga kuiting'hana, na wanhuwengi wavika kuyakalile. Toka imitondombaka ichungulo Paulo kawasimulilana kuwafambulila mbuli za Undewa waMulungu kageza kuwatenda wamtogoleYesu kwa kusoma Malagizo ga Musana maandiko ga watula ndagu waMulungu. 24 Wanhu wayagwe wazitogolambuli zake, ila wayagwe hawamtogolebule. 25 Viwalekile kuilumba wenyego,wasegela, Paulo viyamalile kulonga mbuliino, “Loho Yang'alile kalonga goya kwawahenga zenu kubitila mtula ndagu waMulungu Isaya! 26Kalonga,‘Genda ukawalongele wanhu wano,kuhulika mohulika, lakini hondamujuwe

12 Wanhu wotenda nzambi kunowaduhu Malagizo ga Musa, wopotelabila Malagizo. Wanhu wotenda nzambikuno wagajuwa Malagizo ga Musa,wotagusigwa kwa Malagizo. 13 Kwavijasiyo waja wogahulika Malagizo gaMusa, wao wanogile mgameso gaMulungu, lakini waja wotenda vigalondaMalagizo, waowondawatendigwewanogemgameso ga Mulungu. 14 Wanhu haweliWayahudi waduhu Malagizo ga Musa,lakini wahagesa kusang'hana vigalondaMalagizo, wao wenyego wanago malagizohata kamba waduhu Malagizo ga Musa.15 Mbuli zao zootenda zolagusa kuwazilagizigwe na Malagizo zandikigwammizoyo yao.

Kolongavinyago havilondeka bule habali gweyemwenyego kokwiba vinhu vili mzing'andaza kutambikila vinyago? 23 KoigodelaMalagizo ga Mulungu, vino gweye

humgela kinyala Mulungu kwa kugabenaMalagizo gake? 24 Maandiko Gang'alilegolonga, “Mbuli ya gaja gomtenda mweyeWayahudi, wanhu wa isi ziyagwe wodiligatwaga da Mulungu.”

25 Mwahagagoga Malagizo, kwingilakumbi kwenu kofambula kinhu, lakinikamba hamugagoga Malagizo, kambavija hamwingile kumbi bule. 26 Kambamunhu heli Muyahudi na hengile kumbiyahagagoga Malagizo, vino Mulunguhamgesa bule kamba munhu yengilekumbi? 27 Avo waja hawengile kumbina kuno wogagoga Malagizo wowahonzamutagusigwe kuwa mubananga mweyeWayahudi mwingile kumbi na kugajuwaMalagizo, lakini mogabena. 28 Avo,siyo kila munhu yokoneka kwa kunzeMuyahudi iyo Muyahudi wa kweli, namunhu hatendigwa Muyahudi wa kwelikwavija kengila kumbi mulukuli. 29 LakiniMuyahudi wa kweli ayo ija yeli Muyahudikwa mgati, ayo ija moyo wake wingilakumbi.

21 Lakini sambi nzila ya Mulungu yakuwatenda wanhu wanoge mgameso gakeigubuligwa. Haitendeka kwa Malagizo gaMusa, hamojaMalagizo gaMusa nawatulandagu wa Mulungu wolonga mbuli ayo.22 Mulungu kowatenda wanhu wanogemgameso gake kubitila tamanilo jao kwaYesu Kilisito.

Kamba vinisongilekulonga, “Abulahamu kamtamanilaMulungu, na kwa kumtamanila kwake,Mulungu kamgesa kanoga.” 10 Vino Abu-lahamu kagesigwa kipindi gani? Yang'halihana kwingila kumbi hebu viyengilekumbi? Yang'hali hanakwingila kumbina siyo viyengile kumbi. 11 Abulahamukengila kumbi kumwande, kwingila kumbikwake kukala kilaguso kilaguse kuwaMulungu kamgesa kanoga mbuli ya kum-tamanila kwake yang'hali hanakwingilakumbi.

13 Mulungu kamulongela Abulahamuna lukolo lwake kuwa isi yose yokuwayao, siyo kwavija Abulahamu kagagogaMalagizo, lakini kwavija kamtamanilaMulungu, nayo Mulungu kamtendakanoga mgameso gake. 14 Kwavija kambakija kiyalongile Mulungu wogweleligwawaja wogagoga Malagizo waiyeka, bahotamanilo jao kwa Mulungu daduhu kinhuna vivija kija kiyalongile Mulungu siyokinhu. 15 Malagizo gogala ng'hasiliki zaMulungu, lakini kamba kuduhu Malagizo,kuduhu kubena Malagizo.

Kamba MaandikoGang'alile vigalonga, “Wanhu wa lukololwako wokuwa wengi.” 19 Abulahamukakala na miyaka gana dimoja, lakinitamanilo jake kwa Mulungu hadihungukehamoja kajuwa kakala yalalile ng'hani, namwehe wake Sala sambo ikala imalile.20 Abulahamu halekile kutamanila kiya-longile Mulungu, lakini tamanilo jakekwa Mulungu dimgangamiza na kamgwaaukulu Mulungu. 21 Kajuwa goya kuwaMulungu kodaha kutenda kija kiyamulon-gele. 22 Lekaavo Abulahamu kwa kumta-manila Mulungu, “Kagesigwa na Mulungukanoga.” 23Ulonzi wa, “kagesigwa na Mu-lungu kanoga” hawandikigwe kumwakeyaiyeka, 24 vivija wandikigwa kumwetukuwa togesigwa na Mulungu tunoga kwakumtogola Mulungu yamzilibule Mndewawetu Yesu, kwa wafile. 25 Heyo kalavigwayafe kwa nzambi zetu, abaho kazilibukaili Mulungu yatutende tunoge mgamesogake.

Lakini hanhukuduhu Malagizo, nzambi hazigesigwe.14 Lakini kulawa mna ikipindi cha Adamumbaka mna ikipindi cha Musa, ifaiwatawala wanhu wose, hata kwa wajahawatendile nzambi kamba ziyatendileAdamu yalekile kugoga gaja gayamulagizeMulungu.

Kweli hatakamba wanhu wengi wafa kwa nzambiya munhu ayo imoja, lakini ng'hekewaya Mulungu ibanza ng'hani na nhunzayake yenela kwa wanhu wengi kubitilang'hekewa ya munhu imoja, Yesu Kil-isito. 16 Nhunza ya Mulungu haiigalile nanzambi ya munhu imoja.

Avo kazitagusa nzambi zilimulukuli lulo. 4 Mulungu katenda vivomuladi gaja galondeke mna Gamalagizoga Musa gatendeke mgati mmwetu, tweyetukala muugima wa Loho Yang'alile,

Kamba munhu yoyose kaduhu Lohowa Kilisito, munhu ayo heli wa Kilisitobule. 10 Lakini kamba Kilisito kokalamgati mmwenu, hata kamba ng'huli zenuzofa mbuli ya nzambi, Loho kowatendamuwe wagima, kwavija Mulungu kawa-tenda munoge mgameso gake. 11 KambaLoho wa Mulungu yamzilibule Yesu kwawafile kokala mgati mmwenu, avo ayoMulungu yamzilibule Kilisito kwa wafilevivija kozizilibula ng'huli zenu zifaga, ko-tenda avo kubitila Loho wake, yokalamgati mmwenu.

Na kwa udahi waLoho tomkema Mulungu, “Tata!” 16 NayoLoho mwenyego kolagusa hamoja na lohozetu kuwa tweye twa wana wa Mulungu.17 Kwavija tweye twa wanage, kotugwaaganogile gayawekile wanhu zake, vivijatweye hamoja na Kilisito topata gajagayamwikile, kamba tugaya nayo, vivijatoupata ukulu wake.

9Mulungu na wanhu zake

1 Niye nolonga ukweli, niye na munhuwa Kilisito, avo siviza bule. Moyo wangu,kwa kuitogolela na Loho Yang'alile,wonongela kamba silonga uvizi bule.2 Nolonga vino, kwavija nonyunyuwalang'hani na usungu uli muumoyo haumalabule, 3 mbuli ya Wayahudi wayangu,na wanhu wa lukolo lwangu, mbuli yakuwataza nahadahile kupula niduiligwena Mulungu na mbaguligwe na Kilisito.4 Awo wao Wayahudi, wasaguligwe naMulungu wawe wanage, kawalagusilaukulu wake, kailagana nao, kawagwaaMalagizo gake, na vija viwolondekakumtambikila na gaja gayalongile.5 Awo wao wazukulu wa wahenga waWaebulania, nayo Kilisito muuunhu wakekalawa mulukolo lwao. Mulungu yotawalamna ivose, yatogoligwe siku zose! Ona.

6 Silonga bule Mulungu kalemelwa ku-tenda kija kiyalongile, kwavija siyo wanhuwose wa Izilaeli wao wanhu wa Mulungu.7 Vivija siyo lukolo lose lwa Abulahamu

Walumi 9:8 178 Walumi 9:33wao wanage Mulungu. Kwavija Mulungukamulongela Abulahamu, “Lukolo lwakololawa kwa Isaka.” 8 Avo siyo wana wosewa Abulahamu waleligwe kwa lukuli waowana wa Mulungu, lakini wana waleligwekubitila kija kiyalongile Mulungu, awowao lukolo lwa Abulahamu. 9 Kwavijakija kiyalongile Mulungu acho kino, “Mnaikipindi kinogile nobwela na Sala kolelamwana.”

10 Na haimalile baho bule, ila Lebekakalela wana wabili kwa tata imoja, nayoiyo Isaka muhenga wetu. 11 Lakini wanawao wabili wang'hali hawanavumbuka nawang'hali hawanajuwa kutenda ganogilehebu gehile, muladi Mulungu yaonekekana udahi wa kusagula, 12 na yahasag-ula kosagula kamba viyolonda mwenyego,na siyo mbuli ya kija kiyatendile munhu,lakini kwa kija kiyalongile, “Imkulu kom-sang'hanila imdodo.” 13 Kamba MaandikoGang'alile vigalonga, “Nimnogela Yakobo,lakini nimwihila Esau.”

14 Vino tulonge choni? Mulungukobagula? Bule habagula bule. 15 Kwavijakamulongela Musa, “Nomtendelaganogile munhu yoyose inimulonda, nanomonela bazi munhu yoyose inimu-londa.” 16 Avo kila kinhu chotamanilabazi da Mulungu siyo viyolonda munhuhebu viyosang'hana munhu. 17 KwavijaMaandiko Gang'alile gomulongela vinoFalao, “Niye nikutenda mndewa, muladikubitila gweye ndaguse udahi wangu natwaga jangu dijuwike mwiisi yose.” 18Avo,Mulungu komonela bazi munhu yoyoseyoomulonda na komtenda munhu yoyoseyoomulonda yawe mdala kutogola.

Bazi na ng'hasiliki za Mulungu19 Lakini imoja wenu konilongela,

“Kamba vino vivo ili, habali Mulungukolonga tubananga? Nani yodahakugalema goyolonda Mulungu?” 20Gweyembwigangu kwanani umwidikaMulungu?Vino kitumbe chodaha kumuuza munhuyakilumbile, “Habali unilumbile vino?”21 Avo munhu yalumbile kitumbekodaha kukisang'hanila kamba viyolonda.Kodaha kulumba vitumbe vibili muulongouuja, kitumbe kimoja kwa sang'hanong'hulu na kiyagwe kwa sang'hano ndoondodo.

22Vivo ili kwa kija kiyatendile Mulungu.Kalonda kulagusa ng'hasiliki yake na ku-tenda udahi wake ujuwike, lakini kafunga

umoyo na kuwonela bazi wanhu wosewalondeke kutagusigwa, wanhu walon-deke kubanangigwa. 23 Nayo mwenyegokalonda kulagusa ukulu wake, viyatonelebazi tweye wanhu zake, yatusagule tokamwaka tubokele ukulu wake. 24Avo tweyetwa wanhu tukemigwe, siyo kulawa kwaWayahudi waiyeka, lakini vivija kulawakwa wanhu haweli Wayahudi. 25 Kambaviyolonga Mndewa mkitabu cha mtulandagu Hosea,“Wanhu haweli wangu,nowakema, ‘Wanhu zangu.’Ija simnogele,nomkema, ‘Nomnogela.’26 Na hanhu hawalongeligwe, ‘Hamwili

wanhu zangu,’baho wokemigwa wana wa Mulungu yeli

mgima.”27 Nayo Isaya mtula ndagu wa Mulungukalonga kwa kukemelela mbuli ya wanhuwa Izilaeli, “Hata kamba wanhu wa Izilaeliwengi kamba msanga wa mhwani, lakiniwanhu wonda wakomboligwe wokuwawadodo. 28 Kwavija Mndewa kolopolakumambukiza kuwatagusa wanhu wamwiisi.” 29 Kamba Isaya viyalongileako kukisogo, “Maza Mndewa yeli naudahi sambi yatulekele wanhu wayagwemulukolo, twahabanangike kamba wanhuwa Sodoma na Gomola.”

Paulo kowapulila kwa Mulungu wanhuwa Izilaeli

30 Avo tulonge choni? Wanhuhaweli Wayahudi hawatendile kinhumuladi watendigwe wanoge mgamesoga Mulungu, lakini kwa kumtamanila,Mulungu kawatenda wanoge mgamesogake. 31 Wanhu wa Izilaeli wakalilewozahila malagizo muladi watendigwewanoga na Mulungu, lakini hawagapatilemalagizo ga kuwatenda wanoge mgamesoga Mulungu. 32 Habali hawagapatile?Hawagapatile kwavija hawekile tamanilojao kwa Mulungu lakini watamanila gajagawakalile wosang'hana. Avo waikwala,“mwiing'walo ya dibwe.” 33 Kambavigolonga Maandiko Gang'alile,“Loleni nokwika dibwe ako Sayunidonda diwatende wanhu waikwale,dibwe kulu donda diwalagaze wanhu.Lakini munhu yoyose yonda yamtogole

honda yagwe kinyala.”

1 Ndugu zangu, moyo wangu wolondang'hani na nowapulila kwa MulunguWaizilaeli wayangu wakomboligwe!2 Nokona kuwa wowamba ng'hanikumnogeza Mulungu, lakini kuwambakwao hakutimilike kwavija hawaujuwileukweli wose. 3 Kwavija hawajuwile vijaMulungu viyowatenda wanhu wanogemgameso gake, lakini wao watendaviwogesa, avo walema kutogola vijaMulungu viyowatenda wanhu wanogemgameso gake. 4 Kwavija Kilisitoviyezile, keza kugamambukiza Malagizo,avo munhu yoyose yomtogola Kilisitokotendigwakanogamgameso gaMulungu.

Ukombozi kwa wanhu wose5 Mbuli ya kutendigwa kunoga

14 Vino wompulaze kamba hawamto-gole? Na womtogolaze kamba hawauhu-like usenga wake? Na wouhulikaze usengakamba kuduhu munhu wa kuwapetela?

15 Wanhu wopetaze usenga kamba hawa-tumigwe? Kamba Maandiko Gang'alilevigalonga, “Lola vivinogile kwiza kwawanhu wopeta Mbuli Inogile!” 16 Lakinisiyo wose waitogola Mbuli Inogile ya Mu-lungu. Kwavija Isaya mtula ndagu waMulungu kalonga, “Mndewa, nani yauto-gole usenga wetu?” 17 Avo munhu kom-tamanila Mulungu kwa kuuhulika usenga,usenga awo wokwiza kwa kupetigwa kwambuli inogile ya Kilisito.

18 Lakini niye nouza, vino hawauhulikeusenga? Ona, kuuhulika wauhulika, kwav-ija Maandiko Gang'alile golonga,“Nyangi zao zihulikigwa mwiisi yose,mbuli zao zivika kuuhelelo wa isi.”19 Nouza kabili, vino wanhu wa Izilaelihawajuwa bule? Mulungu kalonga kwamulomo wa Musa,“Nowatenda mweye wanhu zangu mu-

wonele migongo,wanhu wa isi iyagwenowatenda muwagevuzikilewanhu wabozi wa isi ziyagwe.”20Mulungu kagangamiza kulonga kwamu-lomo wa Isaya,“Wanhu walekile kunizahila wanyona,niwalawilila wanhu walekile kuuza mbuli

zangu.”21 Lakini mbuli ya Izilaeli, Mulungu ko-longa, “Imisi yose niwenulila makonogangu kuwabokela wanhu woleka kunihu-lika na wononga vihile.”

11Mulungukowonela baziwanhuwa Izilaeli

1 Nouza, vino Mulungu kowalemaWayahudi wanhu zake mwenyego?Bule, hawalema! Niye mwenyego naMwiizilaeli, mzukulu wa Abulahamu,kabila da Benjamini. 2 Mulunguhawalemile bule wanhu zake, yawasaguletoka mwaka. Vino hamujuwile buleMaandiko Gang'alile vigalonga mbuliya Eliya viyamuyalalile Mulungu mbuliya wanhu wa Izilaeli? 3 Kalonga,“Mndewa, wawakoma watula ndagu zakona kubomola kila upangowakowa kulavilanhosa. Niye niiyeka ayo nisigale na waowolonda kung'homa.” 4 Vino Mulungukamwidikaze? Kamwidika vino, “Niyemwenyego niikila wanhu gana miyanzamalongo saba waja hawamtambikileBaali yaitendile mulungu.” 5 Sambi vivoili, hana wanhu kidogo wasigala mnaiwanhu wasaguligwe na Mulungu kwa

7 Vino, wanhu wa Izilaeli wakipatakija kiwakalile wokizahila? Bule, lakiniwaja wasaguligwe na Mulungu wakipata,wayagwe wafumbigwa sekewajuwe.8 Kamba Maandiko Gang'alile vigalonga,“Mulungu kaifunga mizoyo yao nanzewele zao, mbaka lelo hawadaha kulolahebu kuhulika.”9Nayo Daudi kolonga,“Nyimwili nyimwili zao ziwe mtego wa

Avo kamba Wayahudi wa-hasang'hana goyolonda Mulungu wogalavinhu vingi ng'hani vinogile.

Wahaleka kutenda avo vivija kokan-higwa. 23 Wayahudi wahaleka kulemakutogola kwao, woombekigwa kabili,kwavijaMulungu kodaha kuwaombeka ka-bili. 24 Mweye wanhu hamwili Wayahudimukanhigwa kulawa mumzeituni wakumuhulo na muombekigwa mumzeituniwa mumgunda, hanhu haheli henu, avovibuha ng'hani kwaMulungu kugaombekamatambi gakanhigwe mumbiki waowenyego.

21 Kamba viili nzewele ya Mulungu,wanhu wa mwiisi hawadaha kumjuwaheyo kubitila nzewele zao wenyego.Lakini Mulungu kanogelwa kuwakombolawaja womtogola kubitila usenga awoutuwapetela na ukoneka kwa wanhu welina nzewele kamba ubozi. 22 Wayahudiwolonda kulola kilaguso, Wagilikiwozahila nzewele. 23 Lakini tweyetompeta Kilisito yawambigwemumsalaba.Usenga uno wowagevuza Wayahudi nakwa wanhu haweli Wayahudi wokonekaubozi. 24 Lakini kwa waja wakemigwe naMulungu, Wayahudi hamoja na haweliWayahudi, Kilisito ayo nguvu ya Mulunguna nzewele za Mulungu. 25 Kwavijakija kikoneka ubozi wa Mulungu, kinanzewele kubanza nzewele za wanhu, nakija kikoneka kunyolila kwaMulungu, kinanguvu kubanza nguvu za wanhu.

26 Ndugu zangu, kumbukeni vimukalilebaho umwaka Mulungu viyawakemile,wanhu bwando kumwenu wakala waduhuhata nzewele za wanhu wa mwiisi ino,wanhu bwando wakala waduhu nguvuhebu weli na ukulu. 27 Lakini Mulungukatenda giladi, kasagula vinhu vijavikoneka na wanhu wa mwiisi va kibozimuladi kuwatenda wanhuweli na nzewelewagwe kinyala, na kasagula vinhu vijavikoneka na wanhu wa mwiisi vonyolilamuladi kuwatenda wanhu weli na nguvuwagwe kinyala. 28 Mulungu kasagulavinhu vija vikoneka na wanhu wa mwiisisi vinhu goya na wovibeza na hawavigesabule muladi yavinange vija vigesigwana wanhu wa mwiisi kuwa vinogang'hani. 29 Avo kuduhu munhu yodahakuigodela kinhu chochose mgameso gaMulungu. 30 Lakini Mulungu kawatenda

Kwavija LohoYang'alile kozahila kila kinhu, hata mbuliza Mulungu ziifisile ng'hani. 11 Kuduhumunhu yojuwa viyogesa munhu iyagwe,ila loho yake munhu ayo.

Nilondakulonga na mweye kamba wanhu wamwiisi ino, kamba wana ving'hele wajatamanilo jao kwa Kilisito hadinakangala.2 Nilondeka kuwagwaa maziwa mung'we,lakini si lujo mdala, kwavija hamudahilekukija.

Tweye twa wasang'hanaji waMulungu, tuwatenda mweye mutogole.Kila imoja wetu kotenda sang'hanoiyagweleligwe na Mndewa. 6Niye nihandambeyu, Apolo kagelela mazi, lakiniMulungu heyo yaitendile ikule. 7 Kwavijayahandile na ija yaigelele mazi waduhuchochose, lakini Mulungu heyo yaitendileikule. 8 Munhu yahandile na munhuyaigelele mazi wose wa kinhu kimoja,Mulungu komgweka kila imoja kwasang'hano yake yaitendile. 9Kwavija wosetosang'hana hamoja na Mulungu, mweyemuwa kamba mgunda wa Mulungu.

Lakini kila munhuyozenga kolondeka yatiganye viyozenga.11 Kuduhu munhu iyagwe iyodaha kwikachandusilo, kwavija Mulungu kamwikaYesu Kilisito yaiyeka yawe chandusilo.12 Uchanha mwa chandusilo acho wanhuwozenga kwa zahabu hebu shaba hebumabwe ganogile ng'hani, na wayagwewozenga kwa mibiki, majani hebuusoti. 13 Ukunoga kwa sang'hano yamunhu hokoneka mna isiku ija Kilisitovondayaifisule.

Sang'hanileni ng'huli zenu kwa ukulu waMulungu

12Munhu kodaha kulonga, “Vinhu vosenodaha kutenda.” Lakini siyo vinhu vosevinoga kumwangu. Notogola nodahakutenda kinhu chochose, lakini sitogolakinhu chochose kinhende niwe mtumwawake. 13 Munhu iyagwe kolonga, “Lujokwa mbuli ya inda, na inda kwa mbuli yalujo.” Ona, lakini Mulungu kovibanangavose vibili. Lukuli lwa munhu siyo kwambuli ya ugoni, lakini kwa mbuli yakumsang'hanila Mndewa, nayo mndewaayo yowika goya lukuli. 14 Mulungukamzilibula Mndewa Yesu kwa wanhuwafile, na tweye vivija kotuzilibula kwanguvu zake.

15 Vino, hamujuwile kuwa ng'huli zenuni maungo ga lukuli lwa Kilisito? Hebumogesa nodaha kusola maungo ga lukulilwa Kilisito na kugatenda gawemaungo gaulukuli lwamunhu yosulukila ugoni?

Mbuli ya kusola na kusoligwa1 Lelo, kwa mbuli zija zimnyandikile,“Mbigalo kotenda goya yahaleka ku-

sola mtwanzi.” 2 Lakini kwavija kunaugoni, kila mbigalo yawe na mwehe wakemwenyego, na kila mtwanzi yawe namkasano wake mwenyego. 3 Mbigalo ya-tende vija viyolondeka kwa mwehe wakena vivija mtwanzi yatende vija viyolon-deka kwa mkasano wake. 4 Mwehekaduhu udahi na lukuli lwake, lakinimkasano wake kanao. Vivo ili kwamkasano kaduhu udahi na lukuli lwake,lakini mwehe wake kanao. 5 Sekemulekekuwasa hamoja lakini vonda muitogolelewenyego kutenda vivo muladi mupatekipindi kinogile cha kumpula Mulungu.Abaho ibweleleni kabili, muladi Mwen-embago sekeyawageze kwavija hamudahakuitawala wenyego.

6 Siwalongela vino kwa kuwalagiza,lakini vinigesa niye. 7 Maza vinonda niyewanhu wose wakale kamba vinili niye,lakini kila munhu kana nhunza yake ku-lawa kwa Mulungu. Imoja kana nhunzaino, na iyagwe kana nhunza ija.

8 Lelo, kwa waja hawanasola na weliwagane, vinoga kumwenu kukala usakakamba vinili niye. 9 Lakini mwahalemelwakukala usaka, soleni, kwavija vinoga ku-sola kubanza kusulukila watwanzi.

10 Kwa waja wasolile na kusoligwanowagwaa lagizo, sijangu lakini daMndewa, mwehe sekeyaileke na mkasanowake, 11 lakini kamba yahatenda vivo,yakale usaka hebu wailumbe kabilina mkasano wake. Nayo mkasanosekeyamwase mwehe wake.

12 Kwa wanhu wayagwe nolonga niye,lakini siyo Mndewa, kamba mbigalo Mk-ilisito kana mwehe yolema kumtogolaYesu na imwehe kotogola kukala nayo,sekeyamwase. 13 Na kamba mtwanzi Mk-ilisito kasoligwa na mbigalo hamtogolaYesu na kotogola kukala nayo, sekeya-muleme. 14 Kwavija mkasano hamto-gola Yesu kotogoligwa na Mulungu kwakuilumba na mwehe wake, na mwehehamtogola Yesu kotogoligwa na Mulungukwa kuilumba na mkasano wake. Mazahaili vivo, wana wao sambi watogoligwena Mulungu, lakini Mulungu kawato-gola. 15 Lakini kamba ija hamtogola

Yesu kolonda kumuleka miyage yeli Mk-ilisito na yamuleke. Kwa kilamuso acho,ayo imkilisito, mbigalo hebu mtwanzi,hagomigwa kutenda vivo. Kwavija Mu-lungu kawakema mukale moyo uholile.16 Gweye mwehe Mkilisito, kojuwa vil-ihi kuwa hudaha kumkombola mkasanowako? Hebu gweye mkasano Mkilisito,kojuwa vilihi kuwa hudaha kumkombolamwehe wako?

Ukale kamba Mulungu viyakukemile17 Avo kila munhu na yakale kamba

vija Mndewa viyamtendile yawe, navivija ukale kamba viukalile Mulunguviyakukemile. Dino dijo lagizo jangukwa vibumbila vose va wanhu wamtogoleYesu. 18 Kamba munhu yengile kumbikakemigwa na Mulungu, sekeyaivizilekuwa hanakwingila kumbi. Na kambaviyakemigwe kakala hanakwingila kumbi,sekeyengile kumbi. 19 Kwavija kwingilakumbi hebu kuleka kwingila kumbisiyo kinhu, kilondeka ni kugagogamalagizo ga Mulungu. 20 Avo kilamunhu yakale kamba viyakalile kipindiviyakemigwe na Mulungu. 21Vino, gweyeviukemigwe naMulungu kukalamtumwa?Sekeugelegeze, lakini wahapata kipindicha kulekesigwa, kisang'hanile. 22Kwavijamtumwa yakemigwe na Mndewa kokuwamunhu yalekesigwe kwa Mndewa. Vivoili kwa munhu yalekesigwe yakemigwena Mndewa kokuwa mtumwa wa Kilisito.23 Mulungu kawagula kwa bei ng'hulu,avo sekemuwe watumwa wa wanhu.24 Ndugu zangu, kila munhu na yakalekwa kuilumba na Mulungu kamba vijaviyakalile kipindi Mulungu viyamkemile.

Mbuli ya wanhu wasaka na wagane25 Kwa gaja gamtwandikile mbuli ya

26 Lakini mbuli ya kugaya kuli sambi,vinikona niye yokuwa vinoga kwa munhukukala kamba viyali. 27 Vino gweye kunamwehe? Avo sekeumwase. Vino gw-eye hunasola? Avo sekeulonde kusola.28 Lakini wahasola, hutendile nzambi. Namndele yahasoligwa hatendile nzambi.Lakini wao waisolile wogazika ng'hanimwiisi ino, na niye silonda mweye muwekamba wao.

1 Wakolinto 7:29 192 1 Wakolinto 8:1329 Ndugu zangu, nolonga vino, kipindi

Avo kulawa sambi wanhuweli na wehe wakale kamba wasaka,30 na waja wolila wakale kamba hawalilana waja wodeng'helela wakale kambahawadeng'helela na wagulaji wakalekamba hawagulile kinhu, 31 na wajawosang'hanila vinhu va mwiisi ino wakalekamba waduhu sang'hano navo. Kwavijaisi ino kamba viili sambi, hondaikaleng'hani.

32Nolondamweye sekemunyawenyawe.Munhu msaka kohunganikila mbuli zaMndewa, kwavija kolonda kumnogezaMndewa. 33 Lakini mbigalo mwenemwehe kohunganikila mbuli za mwiisi,kwavija kolonda kumnogeza mwehewake, 34 nayo kokwegigwa mhande mbili.Mtwanzi yeliduhumkasano hebumhambekohunganikila sang'hano za Mndewa,kwavija kolonda kung'ala kwa lukuli naloho, lakini mtwanzi yeli na mkasanokohunganikila mbuli za mwiisi, kwavijakolonda kumnogeza mkasano wake.

35 Nolonga vino kwavija nolondakuwataza mweye. Siwagoma bule, lakininolonda mweye mutende gaja ganogilemuladi mupate kumsang'hanila Mndewakwa moyo umoja.

36 Kamba munhu yoyose kogesahamtendela vinogile mhambe yoolondakufunga nayo zengele. Na kambamhambe ayo kokuwa na miyaka mingikwa kusoligwa na komsulukila ng'hani nayatende kamba viyolonda. Yafunge nayozengele, aho hatenda nzambi. 37 Lakinikamba mbigalo kolonda mwenyegomuumoyo wake kuleka kusola, na kodahakuleka kusulukila na kutenda viyolonda,aho kotenda goya ng'hani yahalekakumsola mhambe ayo. 38 Avo munhuyosola mtwanzi kotenda vinogile, lakinimunhu yoleka kusola kotenda vinogileng'hani.

39 Mtwanzi yasoligwe kokuwa ka-fungigwa na mkasano wake kipindi chosecha ugima wake, lakini mkasano wakeyahafa, kodaha kusoligwa na mbigaloyoyose yoomulonda lakini kolondekayawe Mkilisito. 40 Lakini vinikona niye,mtwanzi ayo komweda ng'hani yahakalausaka. Avo vinigesa niye, vivija ninayoLoho wa Mulungu.

8Mbuli ya Lujo lulavigwe nhosa kwa

vinyago1 Sambi, kwa mbuli ya lujo lulavigwe

nhosa kwa vinyago.Tojuwa, wose tuna ubala, na ubala awo

womtenda munhu yaigode, lakini uno-gelwa wozenga. 2 Waja wogesa wojuwakinhu, hawajuwa kamba viwolondeka ku-juwa. 3 Lakini munhu yomnogela Mu-lungu, kojuwigwa na Mulungu.

4 Avo mbuli ya kuja lujo lulavigwenhosa kwa vinyago, tojuwa vinyago siyokinhu chochose mwiisi, tojuwa Mulunguimoja yaiyeka. 5 Hata yahawa kuna vinhuvikemigwa, “walungu”, mwiisi hebu kuu-langa. Ona, hata kamba wanhu wolongakuna vinhu vikemigwa, “walungu” na“wandewa,” 6 lakini kumwetu tweye tunaMulungu imoja yaiyeka, Tata ija yaumbilevinhu vose na kubitila heyo tokuwa wag-ima. Na kunaMndewa imoja yaiyeka, nayoayo Yesu Kilisito, kubitila heyo vinhu voseviumbigwa, na tweye twawagima kubitilaheyo.

7 Lakini siyo kila munhu kana ubalauno. Wanhu wayagwe wakala wazowelekuvitambikila vinyago, mbaka sambiwahakala kuna ukuja wogesa woja lujolulavigwe nhosa kwa vinyago, kwavijamizoyo yao yonyolila, na yogeligwa dikwe.8 Lakini lujo haludaha bule kutugalabehi na Mulungu. Avo twahaleka kujahatuhungukiligwa kinhu, na twahajahatukongezeligwa kinhu.

9 Lakini muiteganye, kulekesigwakwenu sekekuwatende waja weli namizoyo inyolile watende nzambi.10 Kamba munhu moyo wake unyolila,yahakona gweye uli na kija kiukemaubala, koja mna ing'anda ya kulavilanhosa kwa vinyago, vino hageligwa moyokuja lujo lulavigwe nhosa kwa vinyago?11 Avo mkilisito miyago yeli na moyounyolile, ija Kilisito yafile mbuli yake,kopotela mbuli ya kija kiukema ubalawako! 12 Kwavija mowatendela nzambiwakilisito waenu na kuilumiza mizoyoyao inyolile, momtendela nzambi Kilisito.13 Avo kamba lujo lomuhonza mkilisitomiyangu yatende nzambi, sija nyama ng'o,muladi sekenimuhonze mkilisito miyanguyatende nzambi.

Vino,mulimaji gani yoleka kuja matunda gamgunda? Vino, msusilaji gani yolekakung'wa maziwa ga fugo yake?

8 Silonga ulonzi uno kwa udahi wakiunhu, kwavijaMalagizo gaMusa golongavivo. 9 Yandikigwa mna Gamalagizo gaMusa, “Sekeumfunge ng'ombe mulomowahamsang'hanila kuhulula uhemba.”Vino lelo, tulonge Mulungu kosang'hanilang'ombe? 10Vino, hakalile kotugesa tweyeviyalongile avo? Ona, gano gandikigwambuli ya tweye, kwavija mulimaji namsengaji wose wotamanila kuigolela kijakisengigwe. 11 Tweye tuhanda mbeyu yaLoho mgati mwenu. Vino mbuli ng'hulutwahapata vinhu vitulondeka? 12 Kambawayagwe wolondeka kupata vinhu avokwa kutamanila kulawa kumwenu, vinotweye hatulondeka kupata ng'hanikubanza wao?

Tweye hatukisang'hanila kitulondekakupata. Lakini, tofunga umoyo kwa kilakinhu muladi seketuikimile Mbuli Inogileya Kilisito. 13 Vino hamujuwile kuwawaja wosang'hana Mng'anda ya Mulungu,wopata lujo lwao kulawa mumo, na wajawolava nhosa muupango wopata fungukulawa mwiinhosa ayo? 14 Vivo ili kwaMndewa, kalagiza waja wopeta Mbuli In-ogile wapate lujo lwao kulawa mumo.

15 Lakini niye sisang'hanile hatadimoja dinilondeka kupata, na walasikwandika muladi mhate zinondekekupata. Kumwangu niye nokonavinoga kufa, kubanza munhu yoyose

Fungu jangu nikuwapetela Mbuli Inogile bila kupulasente, bila kupula kinondeka kupata kwakuwapetela wanhu Mbuli Inogile.

19 Niye sili mtumwa wa munhu yoyosebule, lakini niitenda mwenyego mtumwawa kila munhu, muladi mhate wanhubwando wamtogole Kilisito. 20 Vinikalilenosang'hana na Wayahudi ng'hala kambaMuyahudi muladi niwapate Wayahudi,hamoja niye silongozigwa na Malagizoga Musa, lakini ng'hala kamba viwakalilewao muladi niwapate waja wolongozigwana Malagizo ga Musa. 21 Vivo ili, vin-isang'hane kwa waja weliduhu Malagizoga Musa, ng'hala kamba viwokala wao,muladi niwapate waja weliduhu MalagizogaMusa. Ino hainhenda sekenilongozigwena Malagizo ga Mulungu, lakini nolon-gozigwa na Malagizo ga Kilisito. 22 Kwawaja wanyolile, naniye ninyolila muladiniwapate wao.

10Wanhu wozumigwa mbuli ya vinyago

1 Wakolinto 10:1 194 1 Wakolinto 11:11 Ndugu zangu, nolonda mujuwe ki-

Wose wakala wokalizigwa hasi yawingu, na wose wabita goya kuna Iba-hali Ndung'hu. 2 Wose wabatizigwa mdi-wingu namna ibahali kambawanahina waMusa. 3 Wose waja gate didija da kiloho.4 Vivija wang'wa kinhu kikija cha kiloho.Wang'wa kulawamdibwe dija da kiloho di-wacholile najo, dibwe dijo dikala Yesu Kil-isito mwenyego. 5 Lakini wanhu bwandohawamnogeze Mulungu, na mitufi yao ip-wililika kuluwala.

6 Lelo, mbuli zose zino ziwe kinhu chakuifunzila, kutuzuma tweye seketusu-lukile gehile, kamba viwatendile wao.7Vivija seketuvitambikile vinyago, kambaviwatendile wayagwe.

14 Avo, mbwiga zangu niwanogela,kaleni kutali na nhambiko za vinyago.15 Nolonga na mweye wanhu muli nanzewele, gelegezeni wenyego ganogonilonga. 16Twahamgwaa nhogolwaMu-lungu na kung'wa divai mkikasi, toilumbana damu ya Kilisito.

Lukuli lumoja, maungo mengi12 Kamba vija lukuli lumoja viuli na

8 Unogelwa haulemelwa. Kamba kunanhunza za kupeta usenga wa Mulungu,zose zobita siku dimoja, yahawa nhunzaya kulonga ulonzi wa sambi, yohuhwa,wahawa ubala nao wobita. 9Kwavija ubalawetu na nhunza yetu ya kupeta mbuliya Mulungu hawenele, 10 lakini kipindichahavika Mulungu kotenda chenela kijakihunguke na hachenele cholawanya.

Kwavijamunhu yeli na nhunza ya kuwapetelawanhuusengawaMulungu kofaya ng'hanikubanza ija yolonga ulonzi wa kukan-ganya, mbaka hawe na munhu wa kufam-bula mbuli zilongigwa, avo wanhu wosewamtogole Yesu wadahe kugangamizwa.6 Ndugu zangu, vino yowafaya choni na-heza kumwenu kulonga na mweye ulonziukanganya? Hakiwafaya chochose, mbakaniwalongeleni ugubulo wa Mulungu hebuubala fulani, hebu usenga wa Mulunguhebu mafundizo fulani.

Vino munhu kodahaze kujuwalwila lutoigwa kamba kifengwa achohebu bango vahatoigwa havilava sautivinogile? 8 Kamba mhalati hailila goya,nani yonda yaitande kwa kuitowa? 9Vivoili kumwenu mweye, kamba lulimi lwenuhalulonga kinhu kijuwika, nani yondayadahe kugajuwa gomulonga? Kwavijakamba molonga na ubeho. 10 Kunaulonzi mwingi mwiisi, lakini kuduhuulonzi uliduhu fambulo jake. 11 Lakininahaleka kujuwa fambulo da ulonziwa munhu, niye nokuwa munhu bakikumwake nayo kokuwa munhu bakikumwangu. 12 Kwavija mweye mosulukilakupata nhunza ya Loho, molondekamuwambe kuzisang'hanila nhunza azokwa kuwagangamiza wanhu wamtogoleYesu.

Kuzilibuka kwa wafile12 Lelo, kamba towapetela wanhu

20 Lakini kweli Kilisito ayo waichan-duso kuzilibuka kwa wanhu wafile, inoyolagusa kuwa waja wafile wozilibukavivija. 21 Kwavija kamba ifa viigaligwemwiisi na munhu, vivo ili kuzilibukakwa wanhu wafile kogaligwa na munhu.22 Kwavija kamba wanhu wose viwofambuli ya kuilumba kwao na Adamu, vivoili wanhu wose wozilibuligwa kwa wanhuwafile mbuli ya kuilumba kwao na Kil-isito. 23 Lakini kila munhu kozilibuligwamna ikipindi chake, tanhu Kilisito, abahowajaweli wanhu zakemna ikipindi chondayeze Kilisito. 24 Abaho wahavika uhelelo,Kilisito kobananga utawala wose na udahiwose na mamulaka gose, na komgwaaUndewa Mulungu Tata. 25 Kwavija Kil-isito kolondeka yatawale mbaka Mulunguvonda yawahume wose wamwihile nakuweka hasi ya magulu gake. 26Mdumukawa kimambukizo kubanangigwa kokuwaifa. 27 Kwavija Maandiko Gang'alile go-longa, “Mulungu kokwika vinhu vose hasiya magulu gake.” Avo yahalonga, “Vinhuvose.” Mulungu mwenyego kahaduhu,heyo ayo yokwika vinhu vose hasi ya Kil-isito. 28 Lakini vinhu vose vahekigwa hasiya utawalawa Kilisito, nayo Imwana, koikamwenyego hasi ya Mulungu, yekile vinhuvose hasi yake, na Mulungu kovitawalavose kila hanhu.

29 Kamba wanhu wafile hawazilibukabule, vino wotenda choni wanhu wajawobatizigwa mbuli ya wao?

5 Hata vituvikile Makedonia, hatubwi-hile bule. Kila mwambu tukala namagayo,kunze migomvi na mizoyo yetu imemabwembwe. 6 Lakini Mulungu yowahozamizoyo wanhu wokala moyo nyunguwaa,katuhoza mizoyo viyezile Tito kumwetu.7 Siyo kwiza kwake kwiiyeka, lakini vivijambuli ya mweye vimumuhozile umoyo.Nayo katulongela vimusulukila kunyonana vimunyunyuwale kwa gaja galawilile,na vija vimulonda kunigombela, avonodeng'helela ng'hani.

8Kulava kwa moyo unogile

1 Ndugu zetu, tolonda mujuwe,Mulungu viyavigwelele ng'hekewavibumbila va wanhu wamtogole Kilisitoako Makedonia. 2 Wanhu awo wagayang'hani, lakini deng'ho jao dikala kulu,na wakala na moyo wa kulava vinhu vaohamoja wakiwa ng'hani. 3 Nowalongelaukweli, walavang'hani, nawalava kubanzaviwadahile. Kwa kulonda wenyego,4 watupula ng'hani vivija na wao wengilemwiisang'hano ino inogile ya kuwatazawanhu wa Mulungu. 5 Wasang'hanakubanza vitugesile! Tanhu wailavawenyego kwa Mndewa, abaho wailavakumwetu, kamba viyalondile Mulungu.6 Avo tumpula Tito yaisongile sang'hanoino ya kulava kwa moyo unogile, vivijayawataze kuimambukiza kumwenu.7Mweyemnavinhubwando, kumtamanilaMulungu, ulonzi unogile, nzewele,kuwamba ng'hani kutenda ganogile naunogelwa wenu kumwetu. Avo vivijatowalonda mweye muwe na moyo unogileng'hani mwiisang'hano ino ya kulava.

8 Niye siwagwaa lagizo bule, lakininolonda kuwalagusila mweye wayagwe vi-wowamba kuwataza wanhu, muladi ni-juwe unogelwa wenu viwili wa ukweli.9 Kwavija muijuwa ng'hekewa ya Mndewawetu Yesu Kilisito, hamoja kakala na kilakinhu, lakini kaitenda mkiwa mbuli yenumweye, muladi kubitila ukiwa wake mw-eye muwe na kila kinhu.

10 Kwa mbuli ino, niye vinigesavinoga mweye mwahamambukiza gajagamusongile mwaka ubitile. Mweyemukala wanhu wa ichanduso siyo kulavakwiiyeka, lakini vivija kwa moyo wakulonda kulava. 11 Avo mambukizenisang'hano ayo ya kulava kwa moyounogile, kamba vija vimusulukile ng'hanikuisang'hana, avo isang'haneni sambi kwakija kimulinacho. 12 Kamba munhu kanamoyo wa kulava, Mulungu kobokela kijakiyalinacho, halola kija kiyeduhu.

13 Niye silonda kuwadikwa mweyemizigo abaho wayagwe wabwihile, lakinimweye mose muwe sawa. 14 Vinhuvingi vimulinavo sambi viwataze waenuwaliduhu, muladi na wao vonda wawena vinhu vingi viwataze mweye kipindimduhu kinhu. Baho mose mokuwa sawa.15 Kamba Maandiko Gang'alile vigolonga,“Ija yakubile kingi hapatile kingi ng'hani,na ija yasolile kidogo hahungukilwekinhu.”

Tito na wayage16 Nomgwaa nhogolwa Mulungu kwa

20 Toitiganya wanhu sekewatuyalalilevitwika hamoja na kugola sente zino zilav-igwe kwa moyo unogile. 21 Tweye tolondakusang'hana ganogile siyo mgameso gaMndewa yaiyeka, lakini vivijamgameso gawanhu.

Ndugu zetu wayagwewokwiza hamoja nayo, wao wasenga wavibumbila va wanhu wamtogole Yesu nawogala ukulu kwa Kilisito. 24 Avo wala-gusileni unogelwa wenu, muladi vibum-bila va wanhu wamtogole Yesu wajuwetotenda goya vituigodela mweye.

9Kuwataza wakilisito waetu

1 Silondeka kuwandikila mbuli yasang'hano ya kuwataza wanhu waMulungu. 2 Nowajuwa vimuwambakuwatazawanhu, niye niigodelambuli ayokwa wanhu wa Makedonia. Niwalongelatoka mwaka ubitile mweye wanhu waAkaya muitanda kulava, moyo wenuwa kulava uwatenda wanhu bwandowatende vivo. 3 Avo nowatuma nduguwano, muladi kuigoda kwetu mbuliya mweye sekekuwe mulomo wiiyeka.Lakini muitande kuwataza, kambaviniwalongele wao motenda. 4 Kwavijakamba naheza na munhu wa Makedoniana twahawavika hamuitandile, bahotweye togwa kinyala kwavija tuigodelang'hani mweye. Na mweye vivija mogwakinyala kwavija tuwatamanila ng'hani!5Avo nigesa vinoga kuwapula nduguwanowanongolele kwiza kumwenu, waitandenhunza yenu ng'hulu yumulongilemoilava. Baho yolagusa kuwa nhunza ayoyolavigwa kwa kulonda mweye wenyego,siyo kwa kunanahizigwa.

6 Kumbukeni, munhu yohanda kidogokosenga kidogo. Munhu yohanda vingikosenga vingi. 7 Kila munhu kamba viya-gesile muumoyo wake yalave kija kiyali-nacho, siyo kwa moyo hamgwazo hebukunanahizigwa, kwavija Mulungu komno-gela munhu yolava kinhu kuno moyokwatu! 8 Avo Mulungu kodaha kuwag-waa vingi ng'hani kubanza vija vimulonda,siku zose mpate kila kinhu kimulonda,avo muvisang'hanile kwa kila sang'hanoinogile. 9 Kamba vigalonga MaandikoGang'alile,“Kowagwaa kwa moyo unogile wanhu

wakiwana moyo wake unogile waduhu uhelelo.”

10 Nayo Mulungu yomgwaa mbeyumulimaji na lujo, vivija kowagwaamweye mbeyu zimulonda, na kozitendazote, zikule na zilele ng'hani mbuli yakulava kwenu kwa mizoyo yenu inogile.11 Kowatenda muwe wagoli siku zosekwa kila kinhu, mudahe kuwa na moyounogile kipindi chose, muladi wanhuwamgwee nhogolwa Mulungu mbuli yanhunza zenu ziwabokele kubitila tweye.12 Kwavija sang'hano ino yumutendasiyo tu yowataza wanhu wa Mulungu,lakini vivija yowatenda wanhu bwandowamgwee nhogolwa ng'hani Mulungu.13 Kwa mbuli zinogile zilagusigwa kwasang'hano yenu ino, wanhu bwandowomgwaa nhogolwa Mulungu mbuli yakuigoga kwenu Mbuli Inogile ya Kilisitoyumuitogola, na mizoyo yenu inogileya kulava vinhu venu kumwao na kwawanhu wose wayagwe. 14 Avo mizoyoyao yowanogela na wowapulila mweyembuli ya ng'hekewa ng'hulu iyawagweleleMulungu. 15Tumgwee nhogolwaMulungumbuli ya nhunza yake iswelile ulonzi wakuisimulila!

10Paulo koigombela sang'hano yake

1 Niye Paulo mwenyego, wanhuwayagwe wolonga namuhole kipindinahawa na mweye, lakini nahawa kutalina mweye namsabalu. Nowapula kwa bazina moyo unogile wa Kilisito, 2 vondanizesekemunhende niwe msabalu, kwavijanojuwa nodaha kuwa msabalu kwawaja wolonga tokala kamba viwokalawanhu wa mwiisi ino. 3 Ona, tokalamwiisi, lakini hatuitowa kamba viwoitowawanhu wa mwiisi. 4 Silaha zituitowelatweye siyo silaha za mwiisi ino, lakininguvu ya Mulungu, itulaga ng'hambizose. Tobananga mbuli zose za uvizi,5 togabananga magoda gose gotendaviyagwena nzewele ya kumjuwaMulungu.Togaboka magesa gose na kugatendagamtegeleze Kilisito. 6 Mwahagoga kilakinhu, tweye tuitanda kumtagusa munhuyoyose yoleka kugoga.

7Mweye molola mbuli za kunze. Kambamunhu yoyose kogesa heyomunhuwaKil-isito, kolondeka yagese kabili kuwa tweyetwa wanhu wa Kilisito kamba viyali heyo.8 Niye sikona kinyala hata kamba nibanza

12 Tweye hatudaha kuika hamojahebu kuigala na wanhu waja woitogolawenyego. Wanhu woitenda wenyegokinhu cha kupimila na wanhu woilingawao kwa wao, wanhu awo waduhunzewele! 13 Lakini tweye hatuigodang'hani, kuigoda kwetu kokuwa mnaisang'hano iyatugwelele Mulungu,vivija sang'hano ayo, iyo itusang'hanakumwenu. 14Tweyehatunabanza kuigoda,kamba vija hatunakwiza kumwenu,kwavija tweye twiza kumwenu natuwagalila Mbuli Inogile ya Kilisito.15 Avo tweye hatubanza kuigoda mbuli yasang'hano itendigwe na wanhu wayagwe.Lakini tololela kuwa kumtamanila kwenuMulungu kogendelela na sang'hanoyetu kumwenu yokuwa ng'hulu kwakukweleleza viyolondaMulungu. 16Abahotodaha kuipeta Mbuli Inogile mziisiziyagwe, zili kutali na mweye. Kwavijahatulonda kuigodela sang'hano imalilekusang'hanigwa na munhu iyagwe hanhuaho.

17 Lakini, kamba vigolonga MaandikoGang'alile, “Munhu yolonda kuigoda,yaigodele kija kiyasang'hane Mndewa.”18 Kwavija munhu yotogoligwa siyoija yoitogola mwenyego, lakini ijayotogoligwa na Mndewa.

11Paulo na watumigwa wavizi

1 Nogesa mofunga umoyo mbuli yaniye, hata kamba nokoneka nambozi,sekemutonge ng'hani! 2 Nowonelamigongo, kamba Mulungu viyowonelamigongo, mweye muigala na mhambeinimtandile yafungiligwe zengele nambigalo imoja, nayo ayo Kilisito. 3 Lakininodumba kamba dija dizoka kwa ubalawake wa uvizi viyamvizile Hawa, nzewelezenu zodaha kugalusigwa na moleka

Avokamba vija niwaboka vinhu vao muladiniwasang'hanile mweye. 9 Ving'halilena mweye simgazile munhu yoyoseyangwee chochose kinonda, kwavijandugu walawile Makedonia wangalila kilakinhu kinondile. Kamba vija vindekilekuwagaza kwa kinhu chochose, avonogendelela kutenda vivo! 10 Kamba vijaukweli wa Kilisito viuli mgati mmwangu,kuduhu munhu yoyose mwiisi ya Akayayodaha kunhenda sekeniigodele mbuliayo. 11 Vino niye nolonga vino kwavijasiwanogela bule?

Kandikabaluwa ino kuwalemela wafundizawavizi walongile wanhu wamtogoleYesu wolondeka kukweleleza malagizoga Wayahudi kulawa mna idilaganoda umwaka, ng'hani ng'hani kwingilakumbi.

Vivija walonga Paulo hakalileMtumigwa bule, Paulo kaigombela mbuliya utumigwa wake kwa kulonga mbulizake za umwaka (Sula ya 1:11-2:14) nakaigombela Mbuli Inogile kwa kusimulilawanhu wokomboligwa kwa kumtamanilaYesu Kilisito (Sula ya 2:16). Ino yolawililakwa bazi da Mulungu na siyo kijakiwosang'hana wanhu.Mbuli zili mkitabu

Paulo kosonga baluwa yake kwa kuwala-musa kibumbila cha wanhu wamto-gole Yesu ako Galatia (Sula ya 1:1-5).

Abaho Paulo kosimulila mbuli zakeziyagwe za kukisogo muladikuigombela viilondeka kumwakekuwafundiza wanhu na kolongaviyagezile kukala kwa kukwelelezamalagizo lakini mbuli ayo haitendilechochose (Sula ya 1:6-2:21).

Abaho kolonga mbuli ya malagizogayagwe mbuli ya viilondeka kukala

Wagalatia 1:13 214 Wagalatia 2:1413 Mweye muhulika vinikalile noigoga

15 Lakini Mulungu kwa ng'hekewayake kanisagula ning'hali sinavumbuka,kanikema nimsang'hanile. 16 Viyonevinoga kunigubulila Mwanage, muladiniwapetele Mbuli yake Inogile wanhuhaweli Wayahudi, sikimbilile kwa munhukumuuza mbuli yoyose, 17 hebu kucholakudibuga da Yelusalemu kuwauza wajawanongolele kuwa watumigwa, lakinitanhu nichola mwiisi ya Alabiya abahonibweleganya kudibuga da Damesiki.18 Viibitile miyaka midatu, nicholaYelusalemu kumulola Kefa, na nikalanayo kwa siku longo na tano. 19 Lakinisiiting'hane na watumigwa wowosewayagwe ila Yakobo, ndugu yake MndewaYesu.

1 Viibitile miyaka longo na nne,nibweleganya Yelusalemu hamoja naBalinaba, vivija nimsola Tito. 2 Nicholakuko kwavija Mulungu kanigubulilanichole, vituiting'hane twiiyeka nawalangulizi niwasimulila usenga waMbuli Inogile iniwapetela wanhu haweliWayahudi.

6 Lakini wanhu wano wolongigwakuwa walangulizi, kamba kweli wakalavivo hebu si vivo, niye sitonga bule.Kwavija Mulungu hamtagusa munhukwa kumulola kwa kunze, wanhu awohawakalile na magesa ga kunyongezela.7 Lakini wajuwa kuwa Mulungu kan-huma niwapetele Mbuli Inogile wanhuhaweli Wayahudi, kamba vija Petuloviyatumigwe yawapetele Mbuli InogileWayahudi. 8Kwavija Mulungu yamtendilePetulo mtumigwa kwa Wayahudi, yuyoyanhendile niye kuwa mtumigwa kwawanhu haweli Wayahudi. 9 Yakobo, Kefana Yohana wokoneka kuwa walanguliziwakulu, waijuwa ng'hekewa inigweleligwena Mulungu, avo watugoga makononiye na Balinaba, kulagusa tweye nawao twa kinhu kimoja.

Paulo komzuma Kefa11 Lakini Kefa viyezile kudibuga da An-

Kwavija kuduhu munhuyoyose yotendigwa kanoga mgamesoga Mulungu kwa kugagoga Malagizo gaMusa. 17 Lakini kamba tweye tolondakutendigwa tunoge mgameso ga Mulungukwa kuilumba na Kilisito, tokoneka kambatotenda nzambi, vino gano gofambulakamba Kilisito kowataza wanhu watendenzambi?

3Malagizo na kumtamanila Mulungu

1 Mweye Wagalatia mwa wabozi! Vinonani yawalogile? Mbuli ya kuwambigwakwa Yesu Kilisito mumsalaba ilongigwagoya mgameso genu. 2 Nolonda kujuwakinhu kimoja kumwenu, vino mumbokelaLoho wa Mulungu mbuli ya kusang'hanavigalonda Malagizo hebu kwa kuhulikaMbuli Inogile na kuitogola? 3 Vino mw-eye mwa wabozi? Mweye musonga ku-sang'hana mbuli zose kwa kutazigwa naLoho wa Mulungu, vino sambi molondakumambukiza kwa udahi wenu wenyego?4 Vino mbuli zose ziwapatile mugayabule? Aka, havidahika! 5 Vino Mu-lungu kowagwaa Loho wake na kutendaunzonza kumwenu kwavija motenda vi-galonda Malagizo ga Musa hebu kwavijamoihulika Mbuli Inogile na kuitogola?

6Kamba Maandiko Gang'alile vigolongambuli ya Abulahamu, “Kamtamanila Mu-lungu, nayo Mulungu kamgesa kanoga.”7 Avo mujuwe kuwa, wanhu wose wom-togola Mulungu, awo wao wana too waAbulahamu. 8Maandiko Gang'alile galag-ula toka mwaka kuwa Mulungu kowa-tendawanhuwa isi zose wanogemgamesogake kubitila kumtamanila kwao. AvoMaandiko Gang'alile gampetela Abula-hamu Mbuli Inogile, “Kubitila gweye Mu-lungu kowatenda wanhu wa ng'holo zoseza mwiisi wamwede.” 9 Avo wanhu wosewomtamanila Mulungu womweda hamojana Abulahamu, yamtamanile Mulungu.

10 Lakini wanhu wose wotamanilakugatenda golondigwa na Malagizo,wanhu awo waduiligwa na Mulungu.Kwavija Maandiko Gang'alile golonga,“Munhu yoyose yoleka kugoga kila kinhuchandikigwe mna ikitabu cha Malagizo,munhu ayo kaduiligwa na Mulungu!”11 Sambi yojuwika goya Malagizohagadaha kumtenda munhu yanogemgameso ga Mulungu, kwavija MaandikoGang'alile golonga, “Munhu yotendigwakanoga mgameso ga Mulungu kokalakwa kumtamanila Mulungu.” 12 LakiniMalagizo siyo mbuli ya kumtamanilaMulungu, lakini Maandiko Gang'alilegolonga, “Munhu yoyose yotenda mbulizilondeka na Malagizo kokala kwa mbulizizo.”

13 Kilisito katukombola mnaukuduiligwa na Malagizo, kwa kuduiligwambuli ya tweye, kwavija MaandikoGang'alile golonga, “Munhu yoyose lukulilwake lunanikigwe mumbiki kaduiligwa.”14 Mbuli ino itendeka muladi vinhuvinogile, vija Mulungu viyailagane naAbulahamu wagweleligwe wanhu haweliWayahudi kubitila Yesu Kilisito, avo kwakumtamanila Mulungu tobokela LohoYang'alile iyalongile Mulungu.

Lagizo na Kija kiyalongile Mulungu15 Ndugu zangu, nolonda nilonge

vinhu viigalile na vinhu vootenda wanhusiku zose. Wanhu wabili wahaitogolelambuli na kwika kilaguso cha kuilagana,kuduhu munhu yodaha kusegeza hebukwengeza kinhu. 16 Avo kija kiyalongileMulungu kagweleligwa Abulahamu namunhu yaleleke mulukolo lwa mwanageAbulahamu. Maandiko Gang'alilehagalonga, “Wanhu waleleke,” fambulo

Wagalatia 3:17 216 Wagalatia 4:15jakewanhuwengi, lakini golonga, “Munhuyaleleke,” fambulo jake munhu imoja,nayo ayo Kilisito. 17 Niye nolongavino, Mulungu kailagana na Abulahamuna kalonga kotenda kiyailagane nayo.Malagizo ga Musa gagaligwe miyakamagana mane na malongo madatukumwande hagadaha kudisegeza lagano.Avo hagadaha kusegeza kija kiyalongileMulungu. 18 Kwavija kamba nhuza yaMulungu yotamanila Malagizo, bahohaidaha kutamanila kija kiyalongileMulungu. Lakini,mbuli ya kija kiyalongile,Mulungu kamgwaa nhunza Abulahamu.

19 Vino kilamuso cha Malagizo choni?Gongezigwa muladi kulagusa zilihi azonzambi, Malagizo gokalambaka kwiza kwamunhu yaleleke mulukolo lwa mwanageAbulahamu, ayuja yalongigwe mnaidilagano. Malagizo gagaligwa nawasengawa kuulanga kubitila ija yogala kuilumba.20 Munhu yowatenda wanhu wailumbehalondeka kamba mbuli yenyego yamunhu imoja, lakini Mulungu imoja.

Kilamuso cha Malagizo21 Vino ino yofambula kuwa Malagizo

ga Musa hagailumba na kija kiyalongileMulungu? Aka, haili vivo! Kwavijakamba wanhu wabokela Malagizo godahakugala ugima, bahomunhu yoyose kodahakutendigwa yanoge mgameso ga Mulungukwa kugagoga Malagizo. 22 LakiniMaandiko Gang'alile golonga kuwa wanhuwose wa mwiisi wotawaligwa na nzambi,na nhunza iyalongile Mulungu kwakumtamanila Yesu Kilisito, wogoleligwawanhu waja womtogola.

23 Lakini kipindi cha kumtamanilaMulungu vikikalile hakinavika, Malagizogakala gatufungile mbaka kipindi chakumtamanila Mulungu vikigubuligwe.24 Avo Malagizo gatulongoza mbakaviyezile Kilisito, muladi kwa kumtamanilakwetu Mulungu yatutende tunogemgameso gake. 25 Lakini kipindi chakumtamanila Mulungu kivika, avoMalagizo hagatulongoza kabili.

26 Kwa kumtamanila Yesu Kilisitomweye mose mwa wana wa Mulungu.27 Mweye mose mubatizigwe kwakuilumba na Kilisito, na sambi mumvalaKilisito mwenyego. 28 Avo kwa kuilumbana Yesu Kilisito wanhu wose kuduhukuibagula. Kuduhu Wayahudi naWagiliki, kuduhu watumwa na wanhu

wakomboligwe, kuduhu wambigalo nawatwanzi, wose kinhu kimoja. 29 Kambamweye mwa wanhu wa Kilisito, bahomwa wanhu wa lukolo lwa Abulahamu,na mubokela kija kiyalongile Mulungu.

41 Avo, nolonga vino, muhazi yahawa

yang'hali mwana, kaigala na mtumwa,hamoja vinhu vose vake. 2 Kipindiacho chose kolongozigwa na wanhuwomulela na wanhu wovilola goyavinhu vake, mbaka chahavika kipindikikigwe na tatake. 3 Vivo ili kumwetutweye, vitukalile tung'hali wana, tukalawatumwawa loho zitawalamwiisi. 4Lakinivikivikile kipindi kinogile, Mulungukamtuma mwanage mwenyego, yaleligwenamtwanzi, na kalongozigwanaMalagizo,5 muladi yawakombole wanhu waja wosewatawaligwe na Malagizo, ili tuwe wanawa Mulungu.

6 Kwavija mweye mwa wanage, Mu-lungu kamtuma Loho wa Mwanage mmi-zoyo yenu, Loho ayo yokemelela, “Aba,fambulo jake Tata.” 7 Avo gweye hulimtumwa kabili, lakini kwa mwana. Nakwavija kwa mwana, Mulungu kokugwaavinhu vose viyawekile wanage.

Paulo na Wagalatia8 Kuko umwaka mukala hamumjuwile

Niyenokala moyo yungwa yungwambuli yenu!

Hajili na Sala21 Nongeleni mweye mulonda

kutawaligwa na Malagizo ga Musa, vinohamuhulika bule vigalonga Malagizo?22 Kwavija yandikigwa kuwa Abulahamukakala na wana wabili, mwana imojakaleleka na mtwanzi yakalile mtumwa,na mwana iyagwe kaleleka na mtwanziyakomboligwe. 23 Mwanage yalelekena mtwanzi yakalile mtumwa kalelekakamba viwaleleke wana wayagwe,lakini mwanage yaleleke na mtwanziyakomboligwe kaleleka kubitila kijakiyalongile Mulungu. 24 Kinhu kilawililekwa wana wabili wa Abulahamu kiigalana kinhu cha ukweli, watwanzi waowabili wolagusa malagano mabili. Laganodimoja dija ditendigwehanaUlugongo lwaSinai, dolonga mbuli ya Hajili, na wanagewoleleka muutumwa. 25 Hajili kolagusaUlugongo lwa Sinai luli ako Alabiya, nayolagusa buga da Yelusalemu dili sambimwiisi, dili muutumwa hamoja na wanagewose. 26 Lakini Yelusalemu ili kuulanga nibuga dikomboligwe, najo dijo mamaetu.27Kwavija Maandiko Gang'alile golonga,“Deng'helela gweye mtwanzi uli mgumba,Toa lukenze gweye hupatile usungu wa

5Tweye tulekesigwa kwa Kilisito

2 Tegelezeni! Niye Paulo nolonga namweye,mwahatogola kwingila kumbi, Kil-isito honda yawafaye chochose. 3Nolongakabili, munhu yoyose yotogola kwingilakumbi kolondeka yagagoge Malagizo gosega Musa. 4 Kamba molonda kutendigwamunoge mgameso ga Mulungu kwa ku-gagoga Malagizo, baho mwiinega na Kil-isito, na muileka ng'hekewa ya Mulungu.5 Lakini tweye, totamanila kutendigwatunoge mgameso ga Mulungu kwa kumta-manila. Kino acho tukibetela ng'hani kwaudahiwa LohowaMulungu. 6Kwavija twa-hailumba na Yesu Kilisito, kwingila kumbihebu kuleka kwingila kumbi siyo kinhu,kilondeka ni kumtamanila Mulungu ku-bitila unogelwa.

7 Mweye mukala musang'hana goya!Nani yawagomese kuutogola ukweli?8 Mbuli ayo haitendigwe na Mulungu,yawakemile mweye. 9 “Mela kidogodoutenda usage wose ugongomoke!”10 Kwavija muilumba na Mndewa, nogesakuwa mogesa kamba vinigesa niye.Munhu yoyose yowading'hula hata kambayahawa nani, munhu ayo kotagusigwa naMulungu.

Baluwa ya Kabili ya Paulo kwaTimoseoUlongozi

Kitabu cha kabili kwa Timoseo nibaluwa ya kabili ya mtumigwa Paulokwa mwanahina wake Timoseo. Baluwaya kabili kwa Timoseo yandikigwa mnaikipindi behi na uhelelo wa ugimawa Paulo. Kipindi acho Paulo kakalamkifungo ako Lumi (Sula ya 1:16). Paulokakala yailumbile ng'hani na Timoseo nakamkema mwanage (Fil 2:22, 1 Tim 1:2,1:18).

Paulo komambukiza kwa kumulagizaTimoseo heyo mwenyego (Sula ya4:9-24).

1Niye Paulo, namtumigwa wa Yesu Kil-isito kwa kulondaMulungu, nhumigwa ni-walongele wanhu ugima uja ulongigwe naMulungu kotugwaa kwa kuilumba na YesuKilisito. 2 Nokwandikila gweye Timoseomwanangu inikunogela ng'hani.

Mulungu Tataetu naMndewawetu YesuKilisito wakugwee ng'hekewa na bazi natindiwalo.

Paulo komgela moyo Timoseo3Nomtogola Mulungu, inimsang'hanila

kwa moyo uleka kunitagusa kuwanibananga kamba viwatendile wahengazangu. Nomtogola vinikukumbuka gweyesiku zose mna ukumpula kwangu imisina ikilo. 4 Nogakumbuka mahozi gako nanolonda kukona, muladi nimeme deng'ho.5 Nokumbuka kutamanila kwako kwaukweli, kutamanila kuwakalile nako bibiyako Loisi na mamako Enike, nojuwakuwa na gweye vivija kunako. 6 Kwambuli ino nokukumbusa uikong'hezenhuza iyakugwee Mulungu vinikwikilemakono gangu. 7 Kwavija Loho Yang'alileiyatugwee Mulungu hatugela bwembwe,lakini kotugwaa nguvu na unogelwa nakuilongoza wenyego.

8 Avo sekeukone kinyala kuwalongelawanhu mbuli ya Mndewa, na sekeukonekinyala kuilumba na niye mfungwa wake,lakini ilumbe na niye mna ukugayambuli ya Mbuli Inogile, kamba Mulunguviyokugwaa nguvu ya kutenda vivo.9 Mulungu katukombola na katukematuwe wanhu zake, siyo mbuli ya gajagatusang'hane, lakini mbuli ya magesagake mwenyego na ng'hekewa yake.Isi ing'hali hainaumbigwa katugwaang'hekewa kubitila Yesu Kilisito. 10 Lakinisambi ng'hekewa yake igubuligwakumwetu kubitila kwiza kwa Mkombolawetu Yesu Kilisito. Kauhuma udahi wa ifa,na kubitila Mbuli Inogile kaugubula ugimauliduhu ifa.

11Mulungu kanisagula niwe mtumigwana mfundiza, niwapetele wanhu Mbuli In-ogile. 12 Kwa mbuli ayo, nodununzikakamba vino, lakini sikona kinyala, kwav-ija nimjuwa inimtamanila, na nomjuwagoya kodaha kukika goya kija kiyanig-wee mbaka siku dija da kubwela kwake.13 Zigoge mbuli za ukweli zinikufundizekamba kinhu kinogile cha kukweleleza, nausigale mna ukutamanila na unogelwa ulimna ukuilumba na Yesu Kilisito. 14 Kinhukija kiugweleligwe, ukilolese kwaudahiwaLoho Yang'alile, yokala mgati mmwetu.

15 Gweye kojuwa kamba wanhu wosewamtogole Yesu wokala Asiya hamojana Figelo na Helimogene wandeka.16 Nompula Mulungu yawonele baziwanhu wa mng'anda ya Onesifoli,kwavija kanisamhusa miyanza mingina hanyonele kinyala kwavija ng'halamkifungo. 17 Lakini bahaja viyavikile

2Mkalizi yanogile wa Yesu Kilisito

1 Avo gweye mwanangu Timoseo,gangamalamna ing'hekewa itulinayomnaukuilumba na Yesu Kilisito. 2 Mafundizogaja gauhulike nowapetela wanhumgameso ga wanhu wengi, uwafunzegago wanhu wotamaniligwa, wodahakuwafunza wayagwe vivija.

3 Funga umoyo mna gamagayo hamojana tweye kamba mkalizi yanogile waYesu Kilisito. 4 Mkalizi mna ing'hondokoleka sang'hano za ugima wa siku zosemuladi yamnogeze mkulu wa wakalizi.5 Vivija munhu yokimbila kwa kuihumahagweleligwa fungu mbaka yamambukizekwa kukweleleza malagizo ga kuihuma.6 Mlimaji yosang'hana ng'hani kolondekayawe wa ichanduso kupata vija visen-gigwe. 7 Gesa gano gonilonga, kwavijaMndewa kokutenda udahe kugajuwa gose.

8 Mkumbuke Yesu Kilisito, yazilibukekwa wafile, yakalile mulukolo lwa Daudi,kamba viilonga Mbuli Inogile inipeta.9Kwavija nowapetela wanhuMbuli Inogilenodununzika na ngodekigwa kamba vijamunhu yatendile gehile, lakini Mbuli yaMulungu haigodekigwa bule. 10 Avo no-funga umoyo kila kinhu mbuli ya wanhuwasaguligwe na Mulungu, muladi wapateukombozi ulawa kwa Yesu Kilisito na ku-gala ukulu wa mazuwa gose. 11Ulonzi unowaukweli,“Kamba tufa hamoja na Kilisito,vivija tokuwa wagima hamoja nayo.12Kamba twahagendelela kufunga umoyo,vivija totawala hamoja nayo.Kamba twahambela,na heyo vivija kotubela.13Kamba tweye hatutamaniligwa,heyo kotamaniligwa,kwavija hadaha kuviza.”

Msang'hanaji yatogoligwe na Mulungu14Uwakumbuse vinhu avo, na uwazume

mgameso ga Mulungu, sekewagombe kwasama ya mbuli. Kuibamilila kuko kwihana kowananga waja wotegeleza. 15Wambang'hani kusang'hana ganogile mgamesoga Mulungu na uwe msang'hanaji

yeliduhu kinyala kwa sang'hano yake,yofundiza goya usenga wa ukweli waMulungu. 16 Winege na kuibamilila kwambuli za kibozi, kwavija zowagala wanhukutali na Mulungu. 17 Mbuli kamba azoziigala na londa dijaga lukuli lwa munhu.Mna iwanhu awo wamumo wano wabili,Humenayo na Fileto. 18 Waileka nzila yaukweli na wawatenda wanhu wayagwewamtogole Yesu waleke kutamanila kwakuwalongela kamba tuzilibuka tumala.19 Lakini ukweli wa Mulungu wimagoya kamba chandusilo cha mabwe nauchanha zandikigwambuli zino, “Mndewakawajuwa wanhu wake,” na “Kila munhuyolonga heyo wa Mndewa yaleke gehile.”

20 Mng'anda ng'hulu kuna viya vakila aina, viya viyagwe va zahabu nashaba, avo vosang'hanilwa kwa sang'hanong'hulu ng'hulu na viyagwe va mibiki naulongo, avo vosang'hanilwa sang'hanondoo ndodo. 21 Avo, kamba munhuyoyose yahaing'aza kwa kuinega na gagogose gehile, kokuwa kiya cha sang'hanozitogoligwa ng'hani, kwavija katendigwawa Mndewa na komfaya, na kaitandakwa kila sang'hano inogile. 22 Winege nausulukilo wihile wa ubwanga, kwelelezambuli zilondeka, kutamanila na unogelwana tindiwalo na mtambikile Mndewahamoja na wose weli na mizoyo inogile.23Winege na kuibamilila kwa mbuli za ki-bozi nawehu, kwavija kukimambukizo agogogala ndwagi. 24 Kamba msang'hanajiwa Mndewa, sekeuwe na ndwagi, uwena moyo unogile kwa wanhu wose, uwemfundiza yanogile na ufunge umoyo.25 Uwe muhole wahawalanguliza wanhuwokulema gweye, sengine Mulungukowatenda wambwelele na kuujuwaukweli. 26Abaho nzewele zao zowabwelelana wolawa mumtego wa Mwenembago,yawagogile na kuwatenda wagagogegoyolonda.

3Siku za kimambukizo

1 Kumbuka kuwa mna zisiku zakimambukizo kokuwa na magayomakulu. 2 Wanhu wokuwa na gahigahi,wokuwa na magoda, woitapa, wozinogelasente, womuliga Mulungu, hondawawategeleze tata zao na mama zao,waduhu asente, hawamgesa Mulungu.3 Wanhu hawanogela wayagwe, wanhuhawalonda kuilumba, wanhu wowalonga

2 Timoseo 3:4 248 2 Timoseo 4:17wayagwe vihile, wanhu watatali, wanhuwakali, wanhu hawalonda ganogile.4 Wanhu woihinduka, wanhu wotendambuli bila kugesa, wanhu womema bezi,wanhu wounogela ugima uno kubanzakumnogela Mulungu. 5 Kwa kunzewokoneka kambawomtambikilaMulungu,lakini woulema udahi wake. Muinegena wanhu kamba awo. 6 Wanhu awowayagwe wochola mzing'anda za wanhuna kuwananahiza wawategeleze watwanziwonyolila na wapapile mizigo mikulu yanzambi, watwanzi awo wolongozigwana kusulukila kwihile. 7 Watwanziawo wogeza kuifunza siku zose, lakinihawadaha ng'o kuujuwa ukweli. 8 Wanhuawo woulema ukweli kamba vija Yane naYambule viwamulemileMusa. Wanhu awowougula utamu wa nzewele, na waduhukutamanila kwa ukweli. 9 Lakini hondawagendelele kumwande kwavija uboziwao wokoneka na wanhu wose. Vivoviikalile kwa Yane na Yambule.

Mafundizo ga kimambukizo10 Lakini gweye Timoseo, kugagoga

mafundizo gangu na kukweleleza vijavinhendile, na vija vinondile muugimawangu, kukona kutamanila kwangu, ku-funga umoyo kwangu unogelwa wanguna kubetela kwangu, 11madununzo ganguna magayo gangu. Kugajuwa gose gan-dawilile ako Antiokia na Ikonia na Lusi-tila, magayo makulu ganifungile umoyo.LakiniMndewa kamhonya nago. 12Munhuyoyose yolonda kukala na ugima umno-geza Mulungu kwa kuilumba na YesuKilisito kodununzigwa. 13 Wanhu wo-tenda gehile na wavizi wobanza kutendagehile ng'hani, kuwavizila wayagwe nawao wenyego woviziligwa. 14Lakini gweyegendelela mna uukweli uufundizigwe nagendelela kutogola ng'hani. Kuwajuwawaja iwakalile wafundiza wako. 15 Nagweye kojuwa kuwa toka haudodo kuga-juwa Maandiko Gang'alile, godaha kukug-waa nzewele zigala ukombozi kubitilakumtamanila Yesu Kilisito. 16 MaandikoGang'alile gose gana mhumuzi ya Mu-lungu, na gofaya kwa kufundizila uk-weli, gofaya kuwazuma wanhu, gofayakugagolosa ago ganyolodoke, na gofayakuwalanguliza wanhu wawe na ugimaunogile mgameso ga Mulungu, 17 avomunhu yomsang'hanila Mulungu yadahe

kutenda goya, na yadahe kusang'hana kilasang'hano inogile.

41 Nokulagiza mgameso ga Mulungu na

mgameso ga Yesu Kilisito, yonda yawata-guse wanhu wagima na wafile, kwav-ija kokwiza kuwatawala kamba Mndewa,2 nokulagiza uwapetele wanhu usenga,uitande kwa kipindi kinogile na kihile,uwalangulize wanhu na uwazume na uwa-gangamize kwa uhole. 3 Siku zokwizaaho wanhu honda wategeleze mafundizoga ukweli, lakini wokweleleza gaja goy-olonda wenyego na wosola wafundizawengi wonda wafundize gaja gowolondawao kuhulika. 4 Wolema kutegelezaukweli, na wohindukila simo za uvizi.5Lakini gweye uiteganye na ufunge umoyomna gamagayo, usang'hane kuwapetelawanhu Mbuli Inogile na uimambukizesang'hano yako.

6 Kwavija kipindi changu cha kufacha mmabehi na damu yangu yogidigwakamba vija walava nhosa viwogida divai.7Niye niwamba mna ing'hondo, niumam-bukiza mwanza wangu na nigogelezagoya kutamanila. 8 Sambi nobetelakugweleligwa nhunza ya kuhuma, yakutendigwa noge mgameso ga Mulungu.Mndewa yotagusa wanhu goya, konigwaanhunza siku dijo. Si niye niiyeka, lakinina waja wose wombeta kwa kusulukilayalawilile.

Baluwa ya Paulo kwaTito

UlongoziKitabu cha Tito acho kitabu mna iv-

Paulo kamwandikila Tito,lakini vivija kandika kamba vija ibaluwayolondigwa isomigwe kwa sauti mgamesoga wanhu. Mbuli ino toijuwa kwavijakasimulila heyo viyali kamba Mtumigwa,mbuli ayo ijuwika mwaka na Tito. Yo-gesigwa Paulo kandika baluwa ino hagatiya mwaka wa 63-65 toka kuvumbuka kwaKilisito.

Paulo kamulagiza Tito yawalongozewanhu wamtogole Yesu mna ivibumbilaako mna ikisiwa cha Kilete. Paulo kandikabaluwa ino muladi yamulagize Titoyawasagule na kuwafunza walanguliziwa wanhu wamtogole Yesu. Vivijavivo viyalagize mna ibaluwa yakeiyamwandikile Timoseo. Baluwa yakeyosimulila vija walangulizi wa wanhuwamtogole Yesu viwolondeka kuika goyamuladi wategelezigwe ng'hani.

Paulo komulagiza Tito yasagule walan-gulizi womdumba Mulungu (Sula ya1:1-16).

Vivija komulagiza yawafunze wanhuwakale kwa kumdumba Mulungu(Sula ya 2:1-3:11).

Paulo komambukiza kwa kwandikambuli za uhelelo (Sula ya 3:12-15).

1 Niye Paulo, namsang'hanaji wa Mu-lungu na mtumigwa wa Yesu Kilisito. Nis-aguligwa na nhumigwa kugangamiza ku-tamanila kwa wanhu wa Mulungu wau-juwe ukweli na wakale kamba Mulunguviyolonda wakale. 2 Ukweli uno wa mdi-tamanilo da ugima wa mazuwa gose. Mu-lungu yoleka kuviza, katulongela kotug-waa ugima uno, isi ing'hali hainaumbigwa,3 na mna ikipindi kinogile kaugubulausengawake. Naniye nigweleligwa usenga

4 Nokwandikila gweye Tito, mwananguwa ukweli mditamanilo dimoja dituilum-bile. Mulungu Tataetu na Yesu KilisitoMkombola wetu wakugwee ng'hekewa natindiwalo.

Sang'hano ya Tito ako Kilete5 Nikuleka ako Kilete muladi wike goya

10 Kwavija kuna wanhu wengihawalonda kutegeleza, na wolonga mbuliza ubozi na wowagiza wanhu, ng'haning'hani wanhu walawile mkibumbila chaWayahudi na sambi wamtogola Yesu.11Wolondekawanyamale kulonga, kwavijawowading'hula wanhu mzing'andakwa kuwafundiza mbuli hazilondekekufundizigwa, wotenda vivo muladiwapate sente. 12 Vivija imoja wa mtulandagu wao kalonga, “Wanhu wa Kiletesiku zose wolonga uvizi, wotenda gehilekamba ming'onyo, wadoda na wamelo.”13 Usindila uno wa ukweli, avo kolondekauwakomhokele ng'hani muladi wawena tamanilo dinogile, 14 na walekekugendelela kutegeleza simo za Kiyahudinamalagizo golawa kwawanhuwaulemileukweli. 15 Kila kinhu king'ala kwa wanhuweli na mizoyo ing'alile, lakini kuduhuchochose king'alile kwa waja weli nadikwe na wolema kutogola, kwavija

Baluwa kwaWaebulaniaUlongoziKitabu cha Waebulania ni baluwa ya

Ikitabu chandikigwakamba vija munhu yowapetela wanhu.Mkitabu kino cha Waebulania kuna vila-guso kubanza 60 va lagano da umwaka,avo vose volagusa goya Yesu viyatim-ilize ulaguzi na sang'hano ya Mulavanhosa Mkulu wa Wayahudi. Kwa kil-amuso acho ikitabu chandikigwa kuwa-gangamiza Wayahudi wamtogole Yesu.Kitabu cha Waebulania cholagusa Yesuviyagamambukize malagizo ga Musa, avowalava nhosa hawalondeka kulava nhosakabili. Yesu kakala nhosa kwa nzambizose, mwanza umoja na kwa kipindichose. Vivija wanhu wamtogole Yesumna ikipindi chetu wogangamizigwa mnaibaluwa ino ya Waebulania muladi wa-gendelele kumkweleleza Yesu Kilisito ayoyotenda idahike kumwetu tumtamanileMulungu, na vivija tugendelele kumta-manila heyo (Sula ya 12:2).

Kuduhu munhu yajuwile yandikebaluwa ino ya Waebulania, lakini wanhuwoifunza mbuli wogesa sengine munhuyandike kodaha kuwa mtumigwa Paulohebu Luka hebu Balinaba.

Mwandikaji kolagusa kuwa Yesu ayomkulu kubanza watula ndagu waMu-lungu na wasenga wa kuulanga (Sulaya 1:1-4:13).

Abaho kagendelela kulagusa kuwa Yesuayo mkulu kubanza walava nhosawakalile wosang'hana mna Ing'andaya Mulungu ako Yelusalemu (Sula ya4:14-7:28).

Mulungu kalonga kubitila Mwanage1 Baho umwaka, Mulungu kalonga na

wahenga zetu miyanza mingi na kwa nzilanyingi kubitila watula ndaguwake, 2 lakinisiku zino za kuuhelelo, kalonga na tw-eye kubitila Mwanage, heyo iyo ija kwanzila yake Mulungu kaumba ulanga naisi na vinhu vose vili mumo. Mulungukamsagula ayo na kamgwaa vinhu voseviwe vake. 3 Heyo ayo mng'alo wa ukuluwa Mulungu na koigala na Mulungu too!Kila kinhu cholawilila kwa lagizo jake dilina nguvu. Viyamambukize kuzisunhanzambi za wanhu, kakala kuna uukulukuko kuulanga mwambu wa mkono wakudila wa Mulungu mkulu.

Ukulu wa Mwana wa Mulungu4 Mwana kagweleligwa ukulu kubanza

wasenga wa kuulanga, kwavija twagadiyagweleligwe na Mulungu dolagusaheyo mkulu kubanza wose. 5 KwavijaMulungu hamulongele bule msenga wakuulanga yoyose,“Gweye kwa Mwanangu na lelo nolonga

wamtambikile.”7 Lakini mbuli ya wasenga wa kuulanga,Mulungu kalonga,“Mulungu kawatenda wasenga zake wa

kuulanga wawe beho,na wasang'hanaji zake wawe milambi ya

moto.”8 Lakini kwa Mwanage, Mulungu kalonga,

Waebulania 1:9 256 Waebulania 2:17“Go Mulungu undewa wako waduhu

uhelelo!Kowalongoza goya wanhu zako.9 Gweye kuganogela ganogile na kugehila

14 Vino wasenga wa kuulanga ndiochoni? Wao loho iwomsang'hanila Mu-lungu yawatumile kuwataza wanhu wajawonda waubokele ukombozi.

2Ukombozi mkulu

1 Lekaavo tolondeka kugagoga goyagatuhulike, muladi seketusonge mholemhole kuleka kutamanila. 2Baho umwakausenga ulongigwe kubitila wasengawa kuulanga ulagusa wa ukweli, namunhu yoyose yalekile kuukwelelezahebu kuugoga katagusigwa kambaviilondeke. 3Vino tohonyeka vilihi kambahatuutonga ukombozi mkulu kamba uno?Tanhu Mndewa mwenyego iyo yandusekulonga mbuli ino ya ukombozi, na wajawamuhulike watulagusila kuwa ya ukweli.4 Vivija Mulungu mwenyego kalagusakumwao kwa kutenda unzonza mwingina vifukuzi na kuwagolela wanhu nhunzaza Loho Yang'alile kamba viyalondile.

Yesu iyo yowakombola wanhu5 Mulungu hawekile wasenga wa kuu-

langa wawe watawala wa isi ayo, isi ayoya sambi itulonga mbuli zake. 6 Lakini

hana hanhu mna Gamaandiko Gang'alileholonga,“Go Mulungu, vino munhu ayo nani,

mbaka umgese,vino munhu ayo nani mbaka umulole

goya?7 Kwa kipindi kidodo kumtenda yawe

munhu mdodo kubanza wasengawa kuulanga,

kumgwaa taji ya ukulu na kutegelezigwa,8na kumtenda mtawala wa vinhu vose.”Yolongigwa kuwa Mulungu kamtendamunhu, “Mtawala wa vinhu vose,”bila kuleka hata kinhu kimoja. Hatasambi tung'hali hatunamona munhukotawala vinhu vose. 9 Lakini tomonaYesu yatendigwe munhu mdodo kubanzawasenga wa kuulanga kwa kipindi kidodo,muladi mbuli ya ng'hekewa ya Mulungukumwetu Yesu kafa mbuli ya wanhuwose. Sambi tomona kavazigwa taji yaukulu na kutegelezigwa mbuli ya kugayakwake mbaka kufa. 10 Ikala vinoga kwaMulungu, yaumbile na kuvika goya vinhuvose, na kamtenda Yesu yawe viyalikubitila madununzo, muladi yawagalewana wengi muukulu wake. Kwavija Yesuayo yowakombola wanhu.

11 Yesu kowasunha wanhu nzambi zao,heyo hamoja na iwaja wasunhigwe, woseTatao imoja. Lekaavo Yesu hakona kinyalakuwakema ndugu zake. 12 Kalonga kwaMulungu,“Nowalongela ndugu zangu kiutendile,muumting'hano wao nokwimbila nyila za

kukutogola.”13 Vivija kalonga, “Nomtamanila Mu-lungu.” Na kagendelela kulonga, “Niyena hano hamoja na wanhu nigweleligwena Mulungu, wawe wanangu.”

14 Avo kwavija wana awo ni wanhu welina lukuli na damu, vivija Yesu nayo kezakawa kamba wao na kuilumba muunhuwao. Katenda vivo, muladi kubitila ifayake yamuhume Mwenembago, yakalilena udahi wa ifa. 15 Lakini vivija Yesukafa kuwalekesa waja kwa bwembweda ifa wakala watumwa muugima waowose. 16 Kwavija yojuwika kuwa Yesuhezile kuwataza wasenga wa kuulanga,ila kowataza lukolo lwa Abulahamu.17 Lekaavo kalondeka yaigale na nduguzake kwa kila nzila, muladi yaweMulava nhosa Mkulu yotamaniligwa nayeli na bazi mwiisang'hano yake kwaMulungu, muladi nzambi za wanhu

Waebulania 2:18 257 Waebulania 4:6zigeligwe kumgongo. 18 Kwavija heyomwenyego viyagezigwe na kudununzigwakafunga umoyo, kodaha kuwataza iwajawogezigwa.

3Yesu iyo mkulu kubanza Musa

1Avo, ndugu zangu wanhu wa Mulunguna vivija mukemigwe na Mulungu!Gelegezeni mbuli ya Yesu yatumigwena Mulungu yawe Mulava nhosa Mkuluwa tamanilo ditutogola. 2 Nayo kakalayotamaniligwa na Mulungu, yamsagulekutenda sang'hano yake, kamba vijaMusa, viyatamaniligwe kuwasang'hanilawanhu wa Izilaeli wakemigwe ng'andaya Mulungu. 3 Avo Yesu kolondekayagweleligwe ukulu ng'hani kubanzaMusa, kamba vijamunhu yozenga ng'andaviyogweleligwa ukulu ng'hani kubanzaing'anda yenyego. 4 Ona, kila ng'andaizengigwa na munhu, na Mulungu ayomzengaji wa vinhu vose. 5 Heyo Musakakala msang'hanaji yotamaniligwamwiisang'hano yake yose ayo. Sang'hanoyake ayo ikala ilagusa mbuli zondayalonge Mulungu baho kumwande.6 Lakini heyo Kilisito kotamaniligwakamba Mwana yeli na udahi kwa wanhuweli ng'anda ya Mulungu. Tweye waong'anda yake kamba twahagendelela kuwamagalu na kugangamala mna iditamanilodituigodela.

Kubwihila kwa wanhu wa Mulungu7 Kamba Loho Yang'alile viyalongile

mna Gamaandiko Gang'alile,“Mwahahulika sauti ya Mulungu lelo,8 sekemutende mizoyo yenu midala,

kamba viwakalile wahenga zenuviwalemile kumtegeleza Mulungu,

kipindi acho viwamgezile ako kuluwala.9Akowahenga zenuwanigeza na kunilole-

salolesa,hamoja wazona sang'hano zangu kwa

miyaka malongo mane.10 Avo niwagevuzikila wanhu awo na ku-

longa,‘Siku zose wokweleleza nzila zao,na hawazijuwile ng'o nzila zangu.’11Nigevuzika na kuiduila,‘Honda wengile ng'o hanhu hangu ha kub-

wihila!’ ”12 Avo ndugu zangu, iteganyeni

sekeyalawilile munhu yoyose kumwenuyeli na moyo wihile wa kuleka kutogola

kwa kuinega na Mulungu yeli mgima.13 Lakini mwahagendelela kuhulika mbuliino “Lelo” yosomigwa mna Gamaandiko,muigangamize kila siku, muladi munhuyoyose sekeyaviziligwe kutenda nzambina kuleka kutegeleza. 14 Kwavija tweyewose hamoja twa mgati ya KilisitoMkombola kamba twahagogeleza goyambaka kuuhelelo kija kitutamanile ahohaichanduso.

15 Kumbukeni Maandiko Gang'alilevigolonga,“Mwahahulika sauti ya Mulungu lelo,sekemutende mizoyo yenu midala, kamba

viwakalile wahenga zenu,viwalemile kumtegeleza Mulungu.”

16 Wanhu gani iwahulike sauti yaMulungu wamulema? Wao waja wosewalongozigwe na Musa kulawa Misili.17 Vino kwa miyaka malongo maneMulungu kawagevuzikila kina nani?Kawagevuzikila wanhu waja watendilenzambi, wafa kuko kuluwala. 18 Mulunguviyaiduile, “Honda wengile ng'o hanhuhangu ha kubwihila” kakala kowalongakina nani? Kakala kowalonga wanhu awowamulemile. 19 Avo tokona, hawadahilekwingila kuko kwavija walema kutogola.

41 Avo kwavija kija kiyalongile Mulungu

mbuli ya kwingila hanhu ha kubwihilaking'hali baha, tuitiganye munhu yoyosekumwenu sekeyaswele kwingila hanhuaho. 2 Tweye tuihulika Mbuli Inogile,kamba viwahulike wao, lakini viwauhu-lika usenga awo hauwatazile bule, kwavijahawailumbile hamoja mna ukutamanilana waja wauhulike. 3 Kwavija tweye tu-togola, tokwingila hanhu ha kubwihila haMulungu. Hanhu aho ha kubwihila ahohayakalile yolonga Mulungu viyalongile,“Nigevuzika na kuiduila,‘Honda wengile ng'o hanhu hangu ha kub-

Waebulania 4:7 258 Waebulania 6:1kutegeleza. Lakini ing'hali yodahikakwa wanhu wayagwe kwingila hanhuha kubwihila. 7 Lekaavo Mulungu kekasiku iyagwe ikemigwe, “Lelo” miyanzamingi kumwande kalonga kubitilaDaudi yatambuligwe mna GamaandikoGang'alile,“Mwahahulika sauti ya Mulungu lelo,sekemutende mizoyo yenu midala.”

8 Maza Yoshua yahawagwelele wanhukubwihila kulongigwe na Mulungu, Mu-lungu sambi yalonge kumwande mbuli yasiku iyagwe. 9 Avo kung'hali kuna kubwi-hila kwa wanhu wa Mulungu kamba Mu-lungu viyabwihile siku ya saba. 10 Kwavijamunhu yokwingila hanhu ha kubwihilaha Mulungu koleka sang'hano zake nakobwihila, kamba Mulungu viyabwihilemzisang'hano zake. 11 Avo tuwambenikwingila hanhu ha kubwihila, muladisekeyalawilile munhu yoyose kumwenuyonda yaleme kutegeleza kamba viwa-tendile wao.

12 Mbuli ya Mulungu ina ugima nanguvu, ng'hali kubanza panga dikanhakuno na kuno. Yokwingila mbaka mgatikuna umoyo na loho kamba panga kalividikanha mbaka mgati ya maungo nauhongoli. Mbuli ayo yogubula magesaga wanhu na vija viwolonda mmizoyoyao. 13 Kuduhu kinhu chochose kifisigwemgameso ga Mulungu. Kila kinhu kigubu-ligwa na konekamgameso gake. Kumwakeheyo tolondeka kumulongela sang'hanozetu.

Yesu iyo Mulava nhosa Mkulu14 Tunayo Yesu, Mwana wa Mulungu,

Mulava nhosa Mkulu yengile mbaka ku-ulanga, avo tudigoge goya tamanilo di-tulonga tunajo. 15 Mulava nhosa wetuMkulu kodaha kutonela bazi mna ukuny-olila kwetu, kwavija nayo kagezigwa kwakila nzila kamba tweye, lakini hatendilenzambi. 16 Avo tukikwesele bila kudumbakigoda cha undewa cha Mulungu yeli nang'hekewa, ako tobokela ng'hekewa nauhole kututaza kipindi kituvilonda.

51 Mulava nhosa mkulu yoyose kosag-

uligwa na Mulungu kulawa hagati yawanhu na kotenda sang'hano za Mulungumbuli yao. Kolava nhosa na nhunzakwa nzambi za wanhu. 2 Kwavija heyomwenyego kanyolila kwa nzila nyingi, ko-daha kuwa muhole kwa wanhu wabozi na

waja wopotela. 3 Kwa mbuli ayo, kolon-deka kulava nhosa, hatenda avo mbuliya wanhu watendile nzambi waiyeka,lakini vivija kwa nzambi zake mwenyego.4 Kuduhu munhu yoisagula mwenyego nakuigwaa ukulu wa kuwa mulava nhosamkulu. Kolondeka yakemigwe na Mu-lungu, kamba viyakalile Haluni.

5 Vivo ili kwa Kilisito Mkombola, haig-welele mwenyego ukulu wa kuwa mulavanhosa mkulu, lakini kasaguligwa na Mu-lungu yamulongele,“Gweye kwa Mwanangu,lelo nolonga wose wajuwe, niye na

Tatako.”6Vivija hanhu hayagwe mna GamaandikoGang'alile kalonga,“Kipindi chose kokuwa mulava nhosa,kamba ulava nhosa wa Melikizedeki.”

7 Yesu viyakalile mwiisi ino kampulaMulungu kwa mahozi na kukemelelakwa gaja goyolonda kwa ija yodahakumuhonya na ifa. Kwavija kakalamuholena kailava, avo Mulungu kamwidika.8 Hamoja kakala Mwana wa Mulungu,kaifunza kumtegeleza Mulungu kubitilamadununzo. 9 Nayo viyamambukizesang'hano iyatumigwe na Mulungu, kawachanduso cha ukombozi wa mazuwa gosekwa waja wose womtegeleza heyo, 10 naMulungu kalonga wose wajuwe kambaheyo ayo Mulava nhosa Mkulu, kambaulava nhosa wa Melikizedeki.

Kuzumigwa mbuli ya kuleka kutamanila11 Tuna vinhu vingi va kulongelela

mbuli ino, lakini havidahika kuwafam-bulila, kwavija mweye munyeka kuifunza.12 Mbaka sambi mweye mulondekamuwe wafundiza, lakini mung'halimolonda munhu yawafunze mafundizo gaichanduso ga usenga wa Mulungu. Sambimubwelela kong'ha matombo, badalaya kuja lujo mdala. 13 Munhu yoyoseyokong'ha tombo yang'hali mwana,kaduhu ubala wa kujuwa goyolondaMulungu. 14 Lakini lujo mdala lwa wanhuwabala goya, kwavija awo waifunza kwakutenda muladi wajuwe ganogile nagehile.

4Havidahika kuwatenda waleke nzambizao kabili wanhu waja wagubuliligweaho haichanduso ukweli wa Mulungu nawalanza nhunza ya kuulanga na hewona wayao wambokela Loho Yang'alile,5 na wajuwa kunoga kwa usenga waMulungu na nguvu za kipindi chondakize. 6 Kwavija kamba vija wamuwambamumsalaba kabili Mwana wa Mulungu nakumuliga mgameso ga wanhu, kwa mbuliayo wailumiza wenyego.

7Mulungu koutendela ganogilemgundaufonzile mazi ga mvula ikalile youtowelabaho kwa baho na kukuza minoga yondaimfaye mulimaji. 8 Lakini kamba wokotamibiki ya miba na sani, haifaya kinhubule, avo wokuwa mna dizumozumo dakuduiligwa na Mulungu na ako kuuhelelowosomigwa moto.

9 Ndugu zetu, hata kamba tolongavino, tweye towajuwa goya, mweyemwa mnzila inogile ng'hani, nzilaiwalongoza muukombozi. 10 Siku zoseMulungu kotagusa goya. Honda yaisemwesang'hano muitendile na unogelwaumulaguse kumwake kwa kuwatazawanhu zake na mbaka sambi mogendelelakuwataza. 11 Tweye tolonda kilamunhu kumwenu yawambe vivo mbakakuuhelelo, muladi gaja gamutamanilagalawilile. 12 Hatulonda mweye muwewanyeke, lakini muigale na wanhuwaja wotogola na kufunga umoyo naavo kubokela kija kiyalongile Mulungukowagwaa.

Kija kiyalongile Mulungu cha ukweli13 Mulungu viyailagane na Abulahamu,

kagangamiza, kaiduila kwa twaga jakemwenyego, kwavija kuduhu yeli mkulukubanza heyo. 14 Kalonga, “Nokutendelaganogile na kukugwaa wanhu bwandomulukolo.” 15 Abulahamu kafunga umoyokubetela na avo kabokela kija kiyalongileMulungu. 16 Wanhu wahaiduila,wotambula twaga da munhu yeli mkulukubanza wao na kuiduila kolagusa ukweliwa kija kilongigwe na komambukizakuibamila. 17 Avo kwa wanhu wajawalondeke kubokela kiyalongile, Mulungukalonda kulagusa kuwa hagalusa bule kija

kiyalongile, avo kengeza kwa kuiduilakwa kija kiyalongile. 18 Avo kuna vinhuvibili, kulonga na kuiduila, havigalukabule na mbuli azo Mulungu hadahakulonga uvizi. Avo tweye tukimbililekukala goya kwaMulungu togeligwamoyotugangamale kudigoga tamanilo dikigwehaulongozi wetu. 19 Tunajo tamanilo dinokamba nanga ya ugima wetu. Tamanilodijo digangamala na dotamaniligwa nadotulongoza mbaka kukisogo cha panziyana kwingila hanhu hong'ala ng'hani.20 Yesu katulongolela kwingila mumombuli ya tweye na kawa mulava nhosamkulu yeliduhu uhelelo, kamba ulavanhosa wa Melikizedeki.

7Ulava nhosa wa Melikizedeki

1 Melikizedeki kakala mndewa wa bugada Salemu na kakala mulava nhosa waMulungu yeli Uchanha Ng'hani. Ab-ulahamu viyakalile kobwela kuitowa nakuwahuma wandewa wane, Melikizedekikachola kuiting'hana nayo na kamtam-bikila. 2 Abulahamu kamgwaa Melik-izedeki fungu da longo da vinhu viyaso-lile kulawa kuing'hondo. Tanhu, twagadijo da Melikizedeki dofambula, “Mn-dewa yotenda golondigwa na Mulungu,”na vivija kakala mndewa wa Salemu, avotwaga jake dofambula, “Mndewa wa tindi-walo.” 3 Melikizedeki kaduhu tata hebumama hebu wahenga, kuduhu chandusocha kuvumbuka kwake hebu ifa yake.Kaigala na Mwana wa Mulungu, nayo ko-gendelela kukala mulava nhosa kipindichose.

4 Loleni, ukulu uyakalile nao Melik-izedeki, hata muhenga wetu Abulahamuyajuwike ng'hani, kamgwaa fungu dalongo da vinhu viyapatile kuing'hondo.5 Na wanhu wose wa lukolo lwa Lawiweli walava nhosa, malagizo ga Musagowalonda wasole fungu da longo kulawakwa wanhu zao wa Izilaeli, hata kambawao vivija wolawa mulukolo lwa Abula-hamu. 6 Melikizedeki halawile mulukololwa Lawi, lakini kabokela fungu da longokulawa kwa Abulahamu yailagane na Mu-lungu na kamtambikila. 7 Kuduhu shakamunhu yomtambikila miyage iyo mkulukubanza ija yotambikiligwa. 8 Mwambuuno tokona, fungu da longo dosoligwa nawanhu weli na lukuli lufa na mwambuuyagwe tokona fungu da longo disoligwa

Waebulania 7:9 260 Waebulania 8:5na ija yolongigwa hafa. 9 Abulahamuviyalipile fungu da longo, todaha ku-longa Lawi muhenga wa waja wosolafungu da longo nayo kamba vivija kalipakubitila Abulahamu. 10 Kwavija Lawikakala mulukuli lwa muhenga wake Ab-ulahamu kipindi Melikizedeki viyacholilekuiting'hana nayo.

11 Kubitila ulava nhosa wa Walawiwanhu wa Izilaeli wagweleligwa malagizombuli ya ulava nhosa. Avo, maza wanhuwakalile watelele kubitila sang'hano yaWalawi, sambi kulondeke ulawilile ulavanhosa uyagwe kamba viukalile ulavanhosa wa Melikizedeki, na siyo ulavanhosa uja wa Haluni. 12 Kwavija ulavanhosa wahagaluka, vivija malagizo mbuliya ulava nhosa golondigwa gagaluke.13 Avo, Mndewa wetu yalongigwe mnazimbuli zino, kalawamulukolo luyagwe nakuduhu munhu kulawa mulukolo lwakeyasang'hane hana uupango wa kulavilanhosa. 14Avo yojuwika goyaMndewawetukavumbuka mulukolo lwa Yuda, na Musahalutambule bule lukolo ulo viyalongilembuli ya ulava nhosa.

Mulava nhosa iyagwe yaigalile na ulavanhosa wa Melikizedeki

15 Mbuli tuilongile yokoneka goya,kamba kolawilila mulava nhosa iyagweyaigalile na Melikizedeki. 16 Hatendigwemulava nhosambuli yawahenga zake, kwakukweleleza malagizo ga wanhu ga ulavanhosa, lakini kubitila nguvu ya ugimawa mzuwa gose. 17 Kwavija MaandikoGang'alile golonga, “Kipindi chose kokuwamulava nhosa, kamba ulava nhosa waMelikizedeki.” 18 Malagizo ga umwaka gaulava nhosa gekigwa hamgwazo, kwavijagalemelwa kutenda kija kilondeke nahagafaya. 19 Kwavija malagizo gagohagadahile kuvikiza kila kinhu. Na sambidikigwa tamanilo dinogile ng'hani dondaditugale behi na Mulungu.

20 Kwa kwengezela Mulungu kaiduila.Wanhu wayagwe viwatendigwe walavanhosa kukala kuduhu kuiduila. 21 LakiniMulungu viyaiduile Yesu kawa mulavanhosa, Mulungu kamulongela,“Niye, Mndewa Mulungu niiduilana honda nigaluse bule,‘Gweye kokuwa mulava nhosa kipindi

chose.’ ”

22Mbuli ya kuiduila ako, Yesu iyo yotendalagano da sambi dinogile ng'hani dilaw-ilile.

23 Vivija kukala na walava nhosabwando wayagwe na kwavija kila imojawao vikivikile kipindi chake cha kufa kafaavo hawadahile kugendelela na sang'hanozao. 24 Lakini Yesu mgima kipindi chose,na sang'hano yake ya ulava nhosa haicholakwa munhu iyagwe. 25 Avo sambi nasiku zose kodaha kuwagombola wanhuwaja wokwiza kwaMulungu kubitila heyo,kwavija siku zose ka mgima yawapulilekwa Mulungu.

26 Avo tweye tulonda mulava nhosamkulu kamba ayo, yotusang'hanila vit-ulonda na yang'alile na yeliduhu kitalahebu nzambi. Yainegile na wanhu wo-tenda nzambi na kenuligwa kuchola kuu-langa kwaMulungu. 27Haigalile na walavanhosa wayagwe, siku zose holondigwatanhu kulava nhosa kwa nzambi zake naabaho kwa nzambi za wanhu. Kailavanhosa mwenyego mwanza umoja kwanzambi za wanhu wose. 28 Kwavija mala-gizo gowatenda wanhu wanyolile wawewalava nhosa wakulu, lakini kumwandeMulungu kaiduila, kamsagula Imwana,yadahile kusang'hana kila kinhu kiyalon-deke kipindi chose.

8Yesu iyo yogala kuilumba kwa lagano da

sambi1Mbuli ng'hulu mna zimbuli zitulongile

iyo ino, tunayo Mulava nhosa Mkulu yelivino, kakala muukulu mkono wa kudilawa kigoda cha undewa cha Ukulu wakuulanga. 2 Nayo kosang'hana hanhuhong'ala, ndiyo kulonga, mgati mwakiheha cha kutambikila cha ukwelikizengigwe na Mndewa, hakizengigwekwa makono ga wanhu.

3 Mulava nhosa mkulu yoyose kasag-uligwa kumulavila nhunza na nhosaMulungu, avo Mulava nhosa wetu Mkuluvivija kolondeka yawe na kinhu chakulava. 4 Kamba yahakalile mwiisi sambiyawe mulava nhosa bule, kwavija kunawalava nhosa wolava nhunza zilondekemna Gamalagizo ga Musa. 5 Sang'hanozootenda walava nhosa wano, kambakinhu kilagusa vija vili kuulanga. Kambaviikalile kwa Musa, viyakalile mmabehikuzenga kiheha cha kutambikila, Mulungukamulongela, “Lola, sang'hana kila

Waebulania 8:6 261 Waebulania 9:13kinhu kamba lamani yuulagusiligwekuna ulugongo.” 6 Lakini sambi Yesukagweleligwa sang'hano ya ulava nhosainogile ng'hani kubanza wao, kwavijaheyo iyo yogala kuilumba kwa laganodinogile ng'hani. Malagizo ga lagano dijogosang'hanila kija kiyalongile Mulungukinogile ng'hani.

7 Kwavija maza lagano da ichandusoditelele, sambi dilondeke lagano da kabili.8 Lakini Mulungu kowalonga wanhu zakewatenda vihile, viyalongile,“Mndewa kolonga, loleni, siku zokwiza,vonda niwatendele lagano da sambi

wanhu zangu wa Izilaeli na wanhuwa Yuda.

9 Honda diigale na lagano dinitendile nawahenga zao

kipindi viniwalongoze goya kuwalavamwiisi ya Misili,

kwavija hawagendelele kusang'hana kilo-ngigwe mna dilagano jangu,

avo niwalema.10 Avo, dino dijo lagano donda nitende na

wanhu wa Izilaeliako kumwande,nowatenda wagese malagizo ganguna kugeka mmizoyo yao.Nokuwa Mulungu wao,na wao wokuwa wanhu zangu.11 Kuduhu munhu yonda yamfunze

mwenekae miagehebu yonda yamulongele ndugu yake,‘Mjuwe Mndewa.’Kwavija wose wonijuwa niye kuwa na Mu-

9Hanhu ha kutambikila mwiisi na kuu-

langa1 Lagano da ichanduso dikala na vi-

hendo vake va kumsang'hanila Mulunguna hanhu ha kutambikila hazengigwana wanhu. 2 Kiheha cha kutambikilakizengigwa, na mwambu wa kunze wakwingilila ukemigwaGati Ding'alile. Mgatikukala na kinhu cha kwikila taa na meza

na kukala na magate galavigwe kwa Mu-lungu. 3 Kukisogo cha panziya kukalana gati diyagwe dikemigwe Gati Ding'alileNg'hani. 4 Mgati yake kukala na upangowa zahabu wa kusomela ubani na san-duku da lagano dibakigwe zahabumhandezose na mgati kwikigwa nongo ya zahabuikigwe lujo lukemigwa Mana na mkongojawa Haluni uzukile majani na maluwa, namabwe ga bambalagwe gandikigwe mala-gizo. 5 Kudisanduku uchanha kukala navinyago vibili vili na mabawa kulagusakuwa hanhu aho hana ukulu wa Mulungu,mabawa gao gaiyanzanza uchanha ya san-duku aho hozigeligwa kumgongo nzambiza wanhu. Lakini sambi hatudaha kufam-bula mbuli zose.

6 Vino avo vinhu vose vivitandigwegoya, kila siku walava nhosa wokwingilamdigati da kunze kutenda sang'hano zao,7 lakini Mulava nhosa Mkulu yaiyeka iyoyokwingila mdigati da kabili, na kotendavino mwanza umoja muumwaka. Nayokalondeka kusola damu na kumulavilaMulungu kwa nzambi zake na kwa nzambiza wanhu wose ziwatendile bila kujuwa.8 Kwa nzila ino Loho Yang'alile katu-funza goya kamba kipindi kija kihehacha kutambikila vikikalile kuko, nzila yakwingila mdigati ding'alile kuko kuulangaikala hainavuguligwa. 9 Kino acho kila-guso kilagusa kipindi cha sambi. Yofam-bula kamba nhosa za wanyama na nhunzaziyagwe zilavigwe kwa Mulungu, hazi-dahile kuisegeza mizigo ya nzambi mmi-zoyo ya wanhu womtambikila Mulungu.10Kwavija gano gose gotendeka kwambuliya vinhu va kuja na kung'wa na vihendoviyagwe va kuisunha. Gano gose ni mala-gizo mbuli ya lukuli lwiiyeka, vohelelambaka kipindi Mulungu vonda yakitendekila kinhu kuwa cha sambi.

11 Lakini Kilisito keza kamba Mulavanhosa Mkulu wa vinhu vinogile vili hano.Heyo kengila mna ikiheha kikulu nakitelele ng'hani, kiheha hakizengigwena wanhu, avo hakilawile mwiisi inoiumbigwe. 12 Kilisito kengila mwanzaumoja wiiyeka Mdigati Ding'alile Ng'hanihengile na damu ya mbuzi na ng'ombekulava nhosa, ila kasola damu yakemwenyego na katutenda tulekesigwekipindi chose. 13 Damu ya mbuzi nang'ombe na mitozi ya bofu da ng'ombevomizigwa kwa wanhu weli na dikwe nakuwasunha dikwe jao mulukuli lwiiyeka.

Waebulania 9:14 262 Waebulania 10:1114 Lakini, Kilisito kailava mwenyego kwaMulungu kamba nhosa inogile kwa nguvuya Loho wa Mulungu yokala siku zose.Avo, damu yake yosunha mizoyo yetuvinogile ng'hani mizigo ya mbuli zigalaifa na kututenda tumsang'hanile Mulunguyeli mgima.

15 Mbuli ya kija kiyatendile Kilisito, iyoyogala kuilumbakwa laganoda sambi,mu-ladi waja wakemigwe na Mulungu wadahekumweda mazuwa gose kulongigwe naMulungu. Ino yolawilila kwavija kwa ifayake kowalekesa wanhu na gehile waga-tendile kipindi cha lagano da ichanduso.

16 Kwa mbuli ya uhazi wojuwika kambaifa ya munhu yautendile yokoneka,17 kwavija uhazi haufaya kamba munhuyautendile yang'hali mgima, wokuwa nanguvu kipindi yahafa. 18 Lekaavo laganoda ichanduso, hadisongile kusang'hanabila damu. 19 Tanhu Musa kawapetelawanhu malagizo gose kamba vigalongile.Abaho kasola damu ya mbuzi na ng'ombe,katibwiliza na mazi na kwa bunho napamba dung'hu, kakimizila kija kitabucha malagizo na wanhu wose. 20 Musakalonga, “Ino iyo damu ilagusa laganodimulagizigwe na Mulungu mudigoge.”21 Vivija Musa kamizila damu mkihehacha kuiting'hana na viya vose vakumtambikila Mulungu. 22 Avo mnagamalagizo ga Musa kamba vija kila kinhukisunhigwa kwa damu, na nzambi zawanhu zogeligwa kumgongo kamba damuyokwitigwa.

Nhosa ya Kilisito yosegeza nzambi zawanhu

23 Vinhu vino va hano ni kilagusocha vinhu va ukweli va kuulanga, navovilondeka kusunhigwa kwa damu, lakinivinhu va kuulanga venyego volondanhosa inogile ng'hani. 24 Kwavija Kilisitohengile Mdigati Ding'alile dizengigwe nawanhu, dili kilaguso cha kija chenyegokili kuulanga lakini kengila kuulangakwenyego, ako sambi ka haulongozi haMulungu kokoneka mbuli ya tweye. 25KilamwakaMulava nhosaMkulu waWayahudikengila Mdigati Ding'alile Ng'hani nadamu ya mnyama, lakini Kilisito hengilemumo miyanza mingi kuilava mwenyego,26 kwavija yahalondeke kugaya miyanzamingi toka kuumbigwa kwa isi. Lakiniukweli kipindi chammabehi na kuuhelelo,kalawilila mwanza umoja mbuli ya

wose, kusegeza nzambi za wanhu kwakuilava nhosa mwenyego. 27 Kambavija kila munhu kofa mwanza umoja,abaho kotagusigwa na Mulungu, 28 vivoili vivija kwa Kilisito kalavigwa nhosamwanza umoja kusegeza nzambi zawanhuwengi. Kolawilila mwanza wa kabili,hasang'hanila nzambi, ila kuwakombolawanhu waja wombeta kwa kusulukila.

101 Malagizo ga Musa hagaigalile kamba

vigeli genyego, ni mbuli ndodo ziiyekaza vinhu vinogile vondavize. Nhosa ziz-ija zigendelela kulavigwa mwaka mbakamwaka. Kwa mbuli ayo, wodaha vilihikunoga wanhu waja womwizila Mulungukubitila nhosa zino? 2 Maza kweli wanhuwano iwomtambikila Mulungu wahasun-higwe nzambi zao, sambi wagese kabilikamba watenda nzambi na nhosa zosezahamalile baho. 3 Lakini nhosa zolav-igwa mwaka mbaka mwaka kuwatendawanhu wakumbuke kamba wana nzambi,4 kwavija damu ya mbuzi na ng'ombehaidaha bule kusegeza nzambi za wanhu.

5 Lekaavo, Yesu viyakalile mmabehikwiza mwiisi, kamulongela Mulungu,“Hulondile wanhu walave nhosa na

kukugwaa nhunza,lakini kunitandila niye lukuli nikulavile.6 Hunogeligwe na wanyama wosomigwa

11 Kila mulava nhosa wa Kiyahudi ko-tenda sang'hano yake ya kulava nhosakila siku na kolava nhosa zizija miyanza

Waebulania 10:12 263 Waebulania 11:3mingi, lakini nhosa azo hazidahile bulekusegeza nzambi. 12 Lakini Kilisito kalavanhosa imoja kwa nzambi, nhosa ilibuleuhelelo, abaho kakala muukulu mwambuwa mkono wa kudila wa Mulungu. 13 Tokakipindi acho kobetela mbaka vonda wahu-migwewanhuwamwihile na wekigwe hasimmagulu gake. 14Kwa nhunza yake imoja,kawatenda watelele kipindi chose wanhuwaja wosunhigwa nzambi zao.

15 Nayo Loho Yang'alile kolonga mbuliya mbuli ino kuwa,16 Mndewa kalonga, “Dino dijo lagano

Tumkwesele behi Mulungu19 Avo ndugu zangu, damu ya Yesu

yotugela moyo wa kugangamala kwingilaMdigati Ding'alile Ng'hani. 20 Nayokatuvugulila nzila ya sambi, nzilaitulongoza muugima kubitila panziyadija. Katenda avo kwa kululava lukulilwake. 21Avo tunayoMulava nhosaMkulu,mkulu wa ng'anda ya Mulungu. 22 Avotumkwesele behi Mulungu kwa moyounogile na kugangamala mna ditamanilona mizoyo isunhigwe kulawa mnagamagesa gehile na ng'huli zisunhigwekwa mazi mazelu. 23 Avo tolondekatudigoge ng'hani tamanilo jetu ditulongakwa milomo yetu, kwavija ija ituilaganenayo kotamaniligwa. 24 Na tugesevitulondeka kuigela moyo na kuinogelana kusang'hana ganogile. 25 Seketulekekuiting'hana, kamba wanhu wayagweviwoleka kuiting'hana, ila tuigangamizeng'hani, kamba vimukona siku ija yaMndewa ya mmabehi.

26 Twahagendelela kutenda nzambigiladi na kwavija tuujuwa ukweli, kuduhunhosa isigale yonda ilavigwe kabilikusegeza nzambi za wanhu. 27 Lakinikisigale ni kubetela kwa bwembwenhaguso yonda ize na moto mkaliwonda uwasakaze waja wose womulemaMulungu! 28 Kamba wanhu wabili hebuwadatu womulavila kitala munhu kwakubena Malagizo ga Musa, munhu ayo

Munhu iyogesakamba kinhu kidodo damu ya lagano daMulungu isunhile nzambi zake, munhuyomulonga vihile Loho wa Mulunguyotugwaa ng'hekewa.

32Kumbukeni galawilile kumwenu bahoumwaka vimugubuliligwe ukweli wa Mu-lungu, mugaya ng'hani lakini muganga-mala. 33 Kuna kipindi muligigwa nakutendigwa vihile mgameso ga wanhuna kipindi kiyagwe muitanda kuilumbana wanhu waja wakalile wotendeligwambuli zino. 34 Muwonela bazi wanhuwakalile mkifungo, na mutogola kwa ku-deng'helela vimukalile mobokigwa vinhuvenu, kwavija mukala mujuwile kuwamnakinhu kinogile ng'hani, chonda kikalekipindi chose. 35Avo sekemuleke kuganga-mala, kwavija kugangamala ako, kowa-galila nhunza ng'hulu. 36 Molondekakufunga moyo muladi mwahamambukizakutenda goyolonda Mulungu, mubokelekija kiyalongile. 37 Kwavija MaandikoGang'alile golonga,“King'hali kipindi kidodo,na ija iyokwiza kokwiza,honda yakawe bule.38Lakinimunhuwangu yanogilemgameso

11Kutamanila

1 Kutamanila ako kuvijuwa goya vinhuvitubetela na kuvijuwa goya vinhu vijahatuvona. 2 Kwa kutamanila wanhu waumwaka wagweleligwa nhogolwa na Mu-lungu.

3 Kwa kutamanila tweye tojuwa kambaisi iumbigwa kwa imbuli ya Mulungu, avovinhu vikoneka vitendigwa kulawa kunaivinhu havikoneka.

Waebulania 11:4 264 Waebulania 11:274 Kutamanila ako kumtendile Habili ya-

5 Kutamanila ako kumtendile Henokosekeyafe. Lakini kasoligwa uchanha kwaMulungu. Kuduhu munhu yamonilekwavija Mulungu kakala yamsolileuchanha. Kamba maandiko vigolongakamba yang'hali hanasoligwa uchanha,Henoko kakala yamnogeze Mulungu.6Bila kutamanila, kuduhu munhu iyodahakumnogeza Mulungu, kwavija munhuyoyose iyomcholela Mulungu kolondekayatogole kamba Mulungu kauko nakowagwaa nhunza wanhuwaja womzahilakwa kuwamba.

7 Kwa kutamanila Nuhu viyazumigwena Mulungu mbuli ya vinhu va kumwandeyang'hali hanavona, kamtegeleza Mu-lungu kazenga safina na kakomboligwa nawanhu wa lubuga lwake. Kwa kutamanilaNuhu katendigwa kanoga mgameso gaMulungu lakini wanhu wose wa mwiisiwoneka kamba wabananga.

8 Kwa kutamanila, Abulahamukamtegeleza Mulungu viyamkemileyachole mwiisi ija iyamulongele yahamg-welele iwe yake. Kasegela mwiisi yakemwenyego na kachola kuja hakujuwile.9 Kwa kutamanila kakala mvihehakamba munhu baki mwiisi iyalongeligwekogweleligwa na Mulungu. VivijaIsaka na Yakobo wakala kamba avokumwande, wao wakalile na fungumna ikinhu kikija kiyalongile Mulungu.10 Kwavija Abulahamu kakala kobetelabuga jandusigwe na kuzengigwa naMulungu, buga dikala kipindi chose.

11 Kutamanila ako kumtendile Abula-hamu yawe tata, hata kamba kakala mveleng'hani, vivija Sala mwenyego kakalamgumba. Abulahamu kamtogola Mu-lungu kamba kotenda kija kiyalongilekomgwaa. 12 Avo, Abulahamu kakalayalalile kamba munhu yafile, avo kulawakwa munhu ayo imoja walawa wanhuwengi kamba vizili nhondo kuulanga,havidahika kupetigwa kamba msanga wamhwani.

13 Wanhu wose wano viwafile wakalawang'hali wotamanila. Hawabokele bule

AvoMulungu hakona kinyala awo kumkemaheyo Mulungu wao, kwavija kawatandilabuga jao.

17 Kwa kutamanila Abulahamu ka-mulava mwanage Isaka yawe nhosakipindi Mulungu viyamgezile. Abulahamuayo yakalile yabokele kija kiyalongileMulungu, lakini katogola kumulavamwanage yeli yaiyeka yawe nhosa,18 hamoja Mulungu kakala yamulon-gele, “Kubitila Isaka kopata lukolo.”19 Abulahamu katogola kamba Mulungukodaha kuwazilibula wanhu wafile, bahotolonga kamba vija kweli Abulahamukampata Isaka kulawa mwiifa.

Mbuli za kuifunzazili mkitabu cha Yakobo ni za wanhuwose wamtogole Yesu lakini viyatambulembuli kamba, “makabila longo na ma-bili,” yokoneka kamba Yakobo kawandik-ila Wayahudi wamtogole Yesu. Kwavijaikitabu kilondeka kiwavikilewanhuwengi,avo kalonga mbuli nyingi, Yakobo ka-gangamiza mbuli ya kutamanila na ku-sang'hana vikuilumba. Kutamanila kwaukweli kokoneka kwa kusang'hana (Sulaya 2:17). Vivija kowazuma mbuli ya kuwa-tonga ng'hani wanhu wagoli (Sula ya 2:1-4). Na kotulongela tuiteganye na ulonziwetu (Sula ya 3:1-12).Mbuli zili mkitabu

Abaho kowazuma wasomaji zake mbuliya kuitapa (Sula ya 4:11-5:6).

Yakobo komambukiza kitabu chake kwakulava mafundizo gayagwe (Sula ya5:7-20).

Tweye tuwone ukulu wa Kilisito

2 Petulo 1:16 279 2 Petulo 2:1916 Vituwafundizeni mbuli ya ukulu wa

2Wafundiza wa uvizi

1 Kukala na watula ndagu wa uvizi kwawanhu, na vivija wolawilila wafundiza wauvizi kumwenu. Wanhu awo wowafun-diza kwa kinyelegezi malagizo ga uvizigogala ubananzi, na ga kumulema Mn-dewa yawakombole, avo wao woigalilawenyego kubanangigwa kwa kusinhukiza.2 Wanhu wengi wokweleleza mbuli zaozigela kinyala, na kwa sama ya hewowayagwe woibeza Nzila ya Ukweli. 3 Kwakusulukila kwao kwihile wopata vinhukwa kuwafundiza mbuli za uvizi. Nhagusoyao yabaho toka mwaka na hewo yowa-bananga kameso.

4 Kwavija Mulungu hawonele baziwasenga wa kuulanga watendile nzambi,lakini kawapigisila hanhu ha kugayaako wagodekigwa minyololo mdizizawobeta siku ya Nhaguso. 5 Mulunguhayonele bazi isi ya umwaka, kagalagalika ya mazi mwiisi ya wanhuhawamtonga, lakini kamuhonya Nuhuyawapetele wanhu watende gamnogeleMulungu, na vivija kawahonya wanhusaba wayagwe. 6 Mulungu kawatagusawanhu wa mabuga mabili ga Sodomana Gomola, na kawasakaza wanhu wosekwa moto, na kawatenda wawe kilaguso

kwa kija chonda kilawilile kwa wanhuhawamtonga Mulungu. 7 KamuhonyaLutu munhu yanogile, yanyunyuwalekwa gehile gasang'hanigwe na wanhuawo wehile, 8 munhu ayo yanogile kakalakonyunyuwala ng'hani kila siku viyone nakuhulika gehile gasang'hanigwe nawanhuawo wehile. 9 Kamba vino vivo ili, avoMndewa kojuwa vonda yawahonye mnaukugezigwa kwao wanhu womtegeleza,na kojuwa vonda yaweke wanhu wotendagehile mna ukubanangigwambaka siku yanhaguso. 10 Ng'hani ng'hani wanhu wajawokweleleza vizisulukila ng'huli zao nawoubeza udahi wa Mulungu.

Wanhu awo wavizi na woitapa,hawadumba kuviliga vinhu ving'alaviumbigwe vili ako kuulanga. 11 Lakinihata wasenga wa kuulanga, hamoja wanaudahi na nguvu kubanza awo iwafundizawa uvizi, hawalava vitala na kuwaligamgameso ga Mndewa. 12 Lakini wanhuawo woliga kila kinhu hawakijuwile.Wanhu awo waigala na wanyama wotendabila kugesa woleligwa abaho wogogigwana kuchinjigwa, avo nao wobanangigwakamba wanyama. 13 Wolipigwa magayokwa magayo gawatendile. Wonogelwakutenda chochose kihile mgameso gawanhu. Wanhu awo wogela kinyalavonda wakale mna zinyimwili nyimwilizenu kuno wodeng'helela nzila zao zihile.14 Meso gao gamema ugoni, na hawalekakutenda nzambi. Wowalongoza wanhuwanyolile mbaka kuna imitego ya gehile,magalu wa kusulukila vinhu, wagakalilamakungu ga Mulungu. 15 Waileka nzilaigoloke, wapotela na kukweleleza nzilayaikweleleze Balaamu, mwana wa Beoliija yanogelwe kupata fungu kwa kutendagehile, 16 na kazumigwa kwa nzambizake. Mhunda halongaga, kalonga kambamunhu na kaukimila ubozi wa mtulandagu ayo.

17 Awo wafundiza wa uvizi waigalana nzasa zinyalile, na kamba kungugudihembelusigwa na beho. Ziza bahohanhu hao hakukala hawekiligwe naMulungu. 18 Wolonga mbuli za kuitapana za kibozi, kwa kusulukila kwihilekwa ng'huli, wowahonza wanhu wajawasongile kuinega na waja wokalakwa kutenda gehile. 19 Wowalongelawanhu wolekesigwa, akuno wao wenyegowatumwa wa gehile, kwavija munhukokuwa mtumwa kwa kinhu chochose

3Siku ya kubwela Mndewa

1 Ndugu zangu, baluwa ino ya kabilikuwandikila. Mna zibaluwa zose mbilinigeza kuwatenda mugese goya kwakuwakumbusa mbuli zino. 2 Nolondamukumbuke mbuli zilongigwe bahoumwaka na watula ndagu wang'alile,na lagizo da Mndewa na Mkomboladimugweleligwe na watumigwa zenu.3 Tanhu molondeka mujuwe siku zauhelelo, wolawilila wanhu wotawaligwakwa kusulukila gehile gao. Wowazehamweye, 4 kwa kuwauza, “Kakwahi ijayawalongele kokwiza? Toka kufa kwawahenga zetu, kila kinhu cha vivijakamba viikalile baho kunaichanduso chakuumbigwa kwa isi.” 5 Lakini wanhuawo woisemwa giladi baho umwaka kwakulonga Mulungu kaumba ulanga naisi. Isi iumbigwa kulawa mgamazi nakwa mazi. 6 Vivija kwa mazi gago, isiya umwaka ikumbigwa na kunangigwa.7 Lakini ulanga na isi ya sambi vikigwagoya kwa mbuli iija ya Mulungu muladivibanangigwe kwa moto. Vikigwa kwasiku ija wanhu hawamtegeleze Mulunguvonda watagusigwe na kunangigwa.

8 Ndugu zangu, sekemuisemwe kinhukino, mgameso ga Mndewa siku dimojasawa na miyaka magana longo, na miyakamagana longo sawa na siku dimoja.9 Mndewa hakawa bule kutenda gajagayawalongele kamba wanhu wayagweviwogesa kokawa. Heyo kofunga umoyombuli yenu, kwavija halonda munhuyoyose yabanangigwe, lakini kolonda kilamunhu yaleke nzambi zake.

10 Siku ya Mndewa yokwiza kambambavi. Siku dijo ulanga wosegezigwakwa mtigisiko mkulu, vinhu vose vilimumo haviwa baho kabili, nayo isiyosegezigwa hamoja na kila kinhu kilimgati yake. 11 Kwavija kila kinhuchonangigwa, avo mweye molondekamuwe wanhu gani? Molondeka mukalekwa kung'ala na kumtegeleza Mulungu,12 kipindi vimuibeta siku ya Mulungu nakuitenda ize himahima. Siku dijo ulangawolukuzigwa kwa moto, na vinhu vosevili mumo volumbuka kwa joto. 13 Lakinitweye tobetela kija kiyalongile Mulungu,kupata ulanga na isi ya sambi, kae yawanhu wotenda goyolonda Mulungu.

14 Avo ndugu zangu, kwavija mobetelavinhu avo, wambeni ng'hani sekemonekena chochose kihile, hebu kitala chochosemgameso ga Mulungu na muwe na tindi-walo kumwake. 15 Molondeka mujuwekamba Mndewa kofunga umoyo kwav-ija kolonda wanhu wakomboligwe, kambandugu yetu Paulo vivija viyawandikilekwa nzewele iyagweleligwe na Mulungu.16 Paulo kandika mbuli zizija mzibaluwazake zose, kandika mbuli zino. Baluwazake zina mbuli ziyagwe ndala kuzijuwa,na wanhu wayagwe wabozi na wotangatanga wofambula vihile kamba viwofam-bula vihile vifungu viyagwe va MaandikoGang'alile. Avo woigalila magayo gaowenyego.

17 Avo, ndugu zangu, kwavija muzijuwamwaka mbuli zino zose, mwinegesekemuzoligwe na gehile ga wanhuhawamtonga Mulungu na kuleka hanhuhenu hakukalizigwa. 18 Lakini gendelelenikukula mna ing'hekewa na kumjuwaMndewa wetu na Mkombola wetu YesuKilisito. Ukulu uwe kumwake, sambi nasiku zose! Ona.

Baluwa ya ichanduso ya Yohanayandikigwa na mtumigwa Yohana mnaikipindi cha mwaka wa 85-90 tokakuvumbuka kwa Kilisito. Yohanahaitambule bule kamba yuyo mwandikaji,lakini sula ya ichanduso yolagusa kambaheyo kawona kwa meso gake ugima waYesu hano mwiisi na kuzilibuka kwa Yesu(Sula ya 1:1-3). VivijawandikajiwaYohanawa ichanduso uigala na wandikaji waMbuli Inogile yandikigwe na Yohana.Wanhu woitogolela kamba Yohana yuyoyandike Mbuli Inogile yandikigwe naYohana na vivija kandika baluwa ndatuYohana ichanduso na Yohana wakabili naYohana wa kadatu kipindi acho kiyakalilekuko Efeso.

9 Munhu yoyose yolonga kammulengena kuno komwihila ndugu yake, munhuayo yang'hali kamdiziza. 10Munhu yoyoseyomnogela ndugu yake kammulengena mgati yake kuduhu kinhu chondakimuhonze munhu yatende nzambi.11 Lakini munhu yoyose yomwihila nduguyake kamdiziza. Kotembela mdizizana hajuwa kochola kwahi, kwavija zizadimtenda yawe msuwameso.

24 Avo, usenga uja umuhulike tokahaichanduso ukale mmizoyo yenu. Nawahakala mmizoyo yenu, vivija mokalakwa kuilumba na Mwana na Tata. 25 Nakino acho kiyatulongele kamba kotugwaaugima wa mazuwa gose.

Na kambaLoho Yang'alile kokala mgati mmwenu,hamulonda munhu yoyose yawafunze.Kwavija Loho Yang'alile kowafunza kilakinhu na kija kiyowafunza cha ukweli nasi uvizi bule. Avo gagogeni mafundizo gaLoho Yang'alile, na kaleni kwa kuilumbana Kilisito.

Ayoyamkwelile kakala yagogile upinde, nakakala yagweleligwe taji. Kalawa kambamuhumaji na kugendelela kuhuma.

3 Abaho Mwanang'hondolo, kabandulanzabi ya hota ya kabili, nimuhulika ki-umbe yeli na ugima wa kabili kolonga,“Izo!” 4 Niye ndola, kalawilila falasiiyagwe mdung'hu yau. Ayo yamkwelilekagweleligwa ng'honde ya kusegeza tindi-walo mwiisi, wanhu waikome. Ayo kag-weleligwa panga kulu.

Ayo yamkwelile kakala yagogile kinhukili na vinhu vibili va kupimila vinhu viza-mile. 6 Nihulika kinhu kamba sauti ilawakwa viumbe vine vili na ugima, ilonga,“Kibaba kimoja cha usage wa ngano kwasente ya kusang'hana kwa siku imoja, navibaba vidatu va shaili kwa sente ya ku-sang'hana siku imoja. Lakini sekeunangemavuta hebu divai!”

7 Abaho Mwanang'hondolo kabandulanzabi yahota ya ikane, nimuhulika kiumbeyeli na ugima wa ikane kolonga, “Izo!”8 Ndola kalawilila falasi imoja nyaubundi.Ayo yamkwelile kakemigwa, Ifa na kowo-chola wanhu wafile kamkweleleza kuk-isogo. Wagweleligwa udahi kwa loboimoja ya isi yose wawakome kwa kuitowana nzala na mitamu na ming'onyo mikali.

9 Abaho Mwanang'hondolo kabandulanzabi ya hota ya itano. Hasi ya upangowa kulavila nhosa nyona loho za wanhuwakomigwe mbuli ya kuwapetela wanhuusenga wa Mulungu na mbuli ya kugen-delela kugoga usindila wao. 10Wakemelelang'hani, “Go Mndewa utawalaga, ung'alilena mkweli! Lini vonda uwataguse wanhuwa mwiisi na kuwakoboza kwa kutukoma

12 Abaho nimona Mwanang'hondolokobandula nzabi ya hota ya sita. Kukala namtigisiko mkulu wa isi, zuwa dikala titu fiikamba kaniki, mwezi ukala mdung'hu yaukamba damu. 13 Nhondo zilagala mwiisikamba ng'hoga vizilagalaga, kipindivizitigisigwa na beho kulu. 14 Ulangausegela kamba vija mkeka viukunzigwa,vigongo vose na visiwa visegezigwa.15 Abaho, wandewa wa mwiisi, wakulu,wakulu wa wakalizi, wanhuwagoli, wanhuweli na nguvu na wanhu wose wayagwewatumwa na wakomboligwe waifisamzimhango namna imibwemna ivigongo.16Wavilongela vigongo na mibwe mikulu,“Tulagalileni mtufise kutali na meso gaayo yakalile mkigoda cha undewa nakutali ya ng'hasiliki zaMwanang'hondolo!17 Kwavija siku yao ya kutagusigwa ivika,nani yodaha kuigomesa na kwima?”

7Wanhu wayagwe wa Izilaeli wokwikigwa

Kakemelela kuwalon-gela wasenga awo wane wa kuulanga wag-weleligwe udahi wa kunanga isi na ba-hali. 3 Msenga ayo wa kuulanga ka-longa, “Sekemwiinange isi hebu bahalihebu mibiki, mbaka tuwekile vilagusomvihanga vao watumigwa wa Mulunguwetu.” 4 Abaho mhulika wingi wa wanhuwekigwe vilaguso mvihanga vao, wakalawanhu laki imoja na elufu alobaini nanne kulawa mna gamakabila ga wanhu waIzilaeli. 5 Kabila da Yuda walawa wanhuelufu kumi na mbili wekigwa vilaguso nakabila da Lubeni wanhu elufu kumi nambili na kabila da Gadi wanhu elufu kumina mbili. 6 Kabila da Asheli wanhu elufukumi nambili na kabila da Nafutali wanhuelufu kumi na mbili na kabila da Manase

Wanhu kulawa kila kabila9 Abaho ndola, nyona lunhu lwa wanhu

Wavala viwalovizelu na wagoga mibunho ya mbiki wamtende. 10 Wakemelela ng'hani, “Ukom-bozi wolawa kwa Mulungu wetu, yokalamkigoda cha undewa, na vivija wolawakwaMwanang'hondolo!” 11Wasengawosewa kuulanga wema kukizunguluka kigodacha undewa. Awo iwavele na viumbe vinevili na ugima wagwa kingubanguba kuu-longozi wa kigoda cha undewa, watambikakwaMulungu, 12walonga “Ona!

13 Imoja wa waja iwavele kambuza,“Wanowavalile viwalo vizelu wanhu gani?Na wolawa kwahi?”

14 Niye nimwidika, “Go mkulu, gweyekujuwa.”

Nayo kanongela, “Wano awo wa-honyeke mna gamagayo makulu.Wavifuwa viwalo vao kwa damu yaMwanang'hondolo, viwa vizelu chuwee.15 Lekaavo wema kuulongozi wa kigodacha undewa wa Mulungu na wom-sang'hanila imisi na ikilo mng'andayake.

8Nzabi ya hota ya saba

1 Mwanang'hondolo viyabandule nzabiya hota ya saba, ako kuulanga kukala hu-upi, kwa kipindi cha nusu saa. 2 Abahoniwona wasenga saba wa kuulanga wemakuulongozi wa Mulungu, wagweleligwamhalati saba.

3 Msenga iyagwe wa kuulanga yakalilena kiya cha zahabu cha kusomela ubani,keza kema kuulongozi wa upango wakulavila nhosa. Kagweleligwa ubanimwingi na kupula kwa wanhu waMulungu, yavilave nhosa muupango wazahabu uli kuulongozi wa kigoda chaundewa. 4 Yosi da ubani hamoja nakupula kwa wanhu wa Mulungu vicholauchanha kulawa mmakono ga msengaayo wa kuulanga yemile kuulongozi waMulungu. 5 Abaho ayo imsenga wakuulanga kasola kiya cha kwikila ubani,keka makala ga moto kulawa muupangowa kulavila nhosa, kakipigisa ikiya mwiisi.Kukala na ng'huwa, mdudumo mimwesana mtigisiko wa isi.

Mhalati yaichanduso mbaka ya ikane6Abaho awo iwasenga sabawa kuulanga

wakalile na mhalati saba waitanda kuzi-towa.

7 Msenga wa kuulanga wa ichandusokatowa mhalati yake. Mvula ya mabwena moto, vihanganyigwe na damu viku-tuligwa mwiisi. Selusi imoja ya isi ilukulana selusi imoja ya mibiki ilukula na mijanimibisi yose ilukula.

8 Msenga wa kabili wa kuulanga ka-towa mhalati yake. Kinhu kamba lugongolukulu lukwaka moto lwasigwa mbahali.Selusi imoja ya bahali igaluka damu,9 selusi imoja ya viumbe vili mbahali vifana selusi imoja ya ngalawa ng'hulu zi-nangika.

10 Msenga wa kadatu wa kuulanga ka-towa mhalati yake. Nhondo ng'hulu, ik-waka kamba wenge da moto, igwa ku-lawa kuulanga na igwila selusi imoja yamizanda ya mazi na vizanda. 11 Nhondoayo yokemigwa, “Usungu.” Avo selusiimoja ya mazi gakala usungu, wanhuwengi wafa mbuli ya mazi gago, kwavijamazi gagaluka kuwa masungu.

12Abaho msenga wa ikane wa kuulangakatowa mhalati yake. Zuwa na mwezi nanhondo zitowigwa na vagiza selusi imojaya udahi wake wa kumwemwesa. Selusiimoja ya imisi ikala kuduhu mulenge wa

Nyona nhondoikalile ilagale mwiisi, nayo igweleligwaluvugulo lwa mwina wa kolombo dilibuleuhelelo. 2 Ayo inhondo ifungula umwinawa kolombo dilibule uhelelo, na yosikulu dilawa kamba yosi kulu da biwi dis-omigwa. Zuwa na ulanga vigeligwa zizambuli ya yosi dijo. 3Nzigewalawa kudiyosidijo, wengila mwiisi, wagweleligwa nguvukamba ya inge. 4 Walongeligwa seke-wanange mijani hebu mibiki hebu kinhuchochose kihandigwe. Lakini wawanangewanhu waja waiyeka waduhu kilaguso chaMulungu mvihanga vao. 5 Nzige awowalongeligwa sekewawakomewanhu awo,lakini wawadununze kwa miezi mitano.Usungu wa madununzo gago uigala nausungu wa kufuliligwa na inge. 6 Kipindiacho chose wanhu woizahila ifa, lakinihonda waipate bule. Wosulukila kufa,lakini ifa yokala kutali nao.

7 Nzige awo wakoneka kamba falasiwaitandile kwa kuitowa. Mmapala gaowakala na vinhu kamba taji za zahabu,na vihanga vao vikala kamba vihanga vawanhu. 8 Mvili zao ziigala na mvili nhaliza watwanzi nameno gao gaigala namenoga simba. 9 Mhambaga zao zigubikigwana kinhu kamba ngao ya zuma. Sauti yamabawa gao iigala na sauti ya mwanzawa mituka ibululigwa na falasi wocholakuing'hondo. 10Wakala na mikila na mibakamba ya inge, kwa mikila ayo wakalana nguvu ya kuwalumiza wanhu kwakipindi cha miezi mitano. 11 Wakala namndewa yakalile yowalongoza, nayo ayomsenga wa Mwenembago yakalile mkuluwa kolombo dilibule uhelelo. Twaga jakekwa kiebulania Abadoni na kwa kigilikiApolioni, fambulo jake, “Mnangaji.”

12 Magayo ga ichanduso gabita, lakinigang'hali gayagwe mabili gokwiza.

Mhalati ya sita

13 Abaho msenga wa sita wa kuulangakatowa mhalati yake. Mhulika sautiyolawa mna izimhembe nne za upangowa kulavila nhosa utengenezigwe kwa za-habu uli kuulongozi wa Mulungu. 14 Sautiayo imulongela msenga wa sita wa ku-ulanga yakalile na mhalati, “Walekesewasenga wane wa Mwenembago wag-odekigwe hana ulwanda mkulu wa Eu-fulate!” 15 Nayo kawafungulila wasengaawo wane wakalile watandigwe mbuli yasaa ayo ya siku na mwezi awo na mwakaawo, muladi wawakome selusi imoja yawanhu. 16 Mhulika uwingi wa wakaliziwokwela falasi wakala milioni mia mbili.17Vino vivo vinyonile vindagusiligwe, ny-ona falasi na waja wowakwela, wakala nangao mzimhambaga zao ndung'hu kambamoto na buluu na njano. Mapala ga falasiawo gakala kamba mapala ga simba, mu-milomo yao vilawa moto na yosi na balutiikwaka. 18 Selusi imoja ya wanhu wosemwiisi wafa mbuli ya mikubulo ayo mi-datu, nayo ni moto yosi na baluti ikwakavilawile mumilomo yao. 19Nguvu ya falasiawo ikalamna imilomo yao namna imikilayao. Mikila yao iigala na mgendela hasi naikala na mapala, kwa mikila ayo wawalu-miza wanhu.

20 Wanhu wayagwe wasigale, awohawakomigwe na mikubulo ayo,hawalekile gehile ga kutambikila vinhuviwatendile kwa makono gao. Hawalekilekuvitambikila vinyamkela na vinyago vazahabu na shaba na sente na mabwe namibiki, vinhu havidahaga kulola hebukuhulika hebu kugenda. 21 Hawalekileukomaji wao na uhawi na ugoni na ubavi.

10Msenga wa kuulanga na kitabu kidodo

1 Abaho nimona msenga iyagwe wa ku-ulanga yeli na udahi kohumuluka kuu-langa. Kakala yavazigwe wingu na pindeda Mulungu kudipala jake. Kihangachake kikala kamba zuwa, na magulu gakekamba mhanda za moto. 2 Mumkonowake kakala yagogile kitabu kidodo kifun-guligwe. Keka uchanha ya bahali mguluwake wa mkono wa kudila na wa ku-moso keka mwiisi inyalile. 3 Kakemelelang'hani kamba simba yong'ula. Viyamam-bukize kukemelela, ng'huwa saba zidikakwa kubuma. 4 Bahaja vizilongile zijazing'huwa nilonda kwandika, lakini mhu-lika sauti kulawa kuulanga, ilonga, “Mbuli

Ugubulo 10:5 298 Ugubulo 11:18azo zilongigwe na ng'huwa saba zifise,sambiuzandike!”

5 Abaho msenga ayo wa kuulanga ini-mone kema uchanha ya bahali na uchanhaya isi, kenula mkono wake wa kudilauchanha kuulanga, 6kaiduila kwa twaga daMulungu yeli mgima siku zose, yaumbileulanga na isi na bahali na vinhu vose vilimumo. Kalonga, “Kipindi cha kubetelakibita! 7 Lakini kipindi imsenga wa sabawa kuulanga yahatowa mhalati yake, Mu-lungu komambukiza mbuli zake za kifisokamba viyawapetele watula ndagu, awoiwasang'hanaji zake.”

8 Abaho sauti ija imhulike aho haichan-duso kulawa kuulanga, inongela kabili,“Genda kakisole kitabu kifunguligwe kilimumkono wamsenga wa kuulanga yemilembahali na mwiisi inyalile.”

9 Avo nimcholela ayo imsenga wa kuu-langa, nimpula yanigwee acho ikitabu ki-dodo. Kanongela, “Sola ukije, mumulomowako chokuwa cha umulile kamba uki,lakini mna iinda chokuwa cha usungu!”

10 Nikisola kitabu acho kidodomumkono wa msenga ayo wa kuulanganikija, mumulomo kikala cha umulilekamba uki, lakini vinikidile mna iindakikala usungu. 11 Abaho nongeligwa,“Kolondeka upete kabili usenga waMulungu mbuli ya wanhu wa kila isi nalukolo na ulonzi na wandewa wakulu!”

11Wanhu wabili wavonile na kulonga

1 Abaho ngweleligwa dete kamba kibikicha kupimila, nongeligwa, “Genda kapimeng'anda ya Mulungu na upango wa kulav-ila nhosa na uwapete wanhu womtam-bikila Mulungu mumo. 2 Lakini seke-upime lubuga lwa kunze ya Ng'anda yaMulungu, kwavija wagweleligwa wanhuhaweli Wayahudi, wao wodibojoga bugading'alile kwa kipindi cha miezi malongomane na mbili. 3Nowatuma wanhu zanguwabili, wolonga usenga wa Mulungu kwasiku elufumojamaganamabili namalongosita kuno wavala vikumbi.”

4 Wanhu awo wabili wonda walongembuli yangu awo walongigwe kambamibiki mibili ya mizeituni na vinhuvibili va kwikila taa vili kuulongozi waMndewa wa isi. 5Munhu yoyose yahagezakuwalumiza, moto ulawa mmilomoyao owasakaza wanhu wawehile, namunhu yoyose yonda yageze kuwalumiza

kokomigwa kamba vivo. 6 Kipindi vondawapete usenga wa Mulungu, wokuwa naudahi wa kufunga ulanga muladi mvulasekeitowe. Wana udahi wa kugalusa mazikuwa damu, vivija wana udahi wa kugalamikubulo mwiisi kipindi wahalonda.

7Wahamambukiza kulonga usenga wao,ng'onyo dilawa kudikolombo dilibuleuhelelo diitowa nao. Najo dowahumana dowakoma. 8 Mitufi yao yokala mnazinzila za buga kulu, hanhu haawambigweMndewa wao. Twaga da kugwaza da bugadijo Sodoma hebu isi ya Misili. 9 Wanhukulawa kila isi na lukolo na ulonzi na kabilawoilola mitufi yao kwa siku ndatu na nusuna honda watogole izikigwe. 10 Wanhuwokala mwiisi woideng'helela ifa yawanhu awo wabili. Wotenda nyimwilinyimwili na kuigwaa nhunza, kwavijawatula ndagu awo wabili wawagazang'hani wanhu wa mwiisi. 11 Zahamalasiku azo ndatu na nusu, mhumuzi yaugima kulawa kwa Mulungu iwezila nakuwengila, nao wema wima na wanhuwosewawonewengila bwembwe. 12Abahowatula ndagu awo wabili wahulika sauting'hulu kuulanga, ilonga, “Izoni kuno!”Wachola kuulanga mna diwingu, kunowanhu wawehile wowalola. 13 Kipindikikija kukala na mtigisiko mkulu ng'haniwa isi, hanhu ha longo ha isi inangika,na wanhu elufu saba wakomigwa kwamtigisiko awo. Wanhu wasigale wadumbang'hani, wamgwaa ukulu Mulungu wakuulanga.

14 Magayo gakabili gabita, lakinigang'hali gakadatu gokwiza sambi.

Mhalati ya saba15 Abaho msenga wa saba wa kuulanga

katowa mhalati yake, kukala na sauting'hulu kuulanga, ilonga, “Sambi undewawa mwiisi wa Mndewa Mulungu wetu naKilisito iyamsagule. Nayo kotawala sikuzose!” 16 Abaho waja iwavele malongomabili na nne wakalile kuulongozi wa Mu-lungu mna ivigoda, wagwa kingubanguba,watambika kwa Mulungu, 17walonga,“Tokugwaa asente Mulungu uli na Udahi

12Mtwanzi na Zoka kulu

1 Abaho kilaguso cha kukanganyachoneka kuulanga. Kukala na mtwanziyavalile zuwa na yakalile na mwezimmagulu gake na kudipala jake kavalataji ya nhondo longo na mbili. 2 Kakala nainda, na kalila kwa usungu kamba usunguwa kulela mwana.

3 Abaho kilaguso kiyagwe cha kukan-ganya choneka kuulanga. Zoka kuludung'hu yau na dikala na mapala saba namhembe longo, na kila pala dikala na taji.4 Zoka dijo kwa kila jake dibulula selusiimoja ya nhondo za kuulanga na dizasilamwiisi. Najo dima kuulongozi wamtwanziyuyo yakalile yolonda kulela, muladi bahoimwana yahavumbukadimsukile. 5Abaho,mtwanzi yuyo kalela mwana wa kimbi-galo, yonda yawatawale wanhu wa isi zosekwa mkongoja wa zuma lakini imwana ka-soligwa na kugaligwa kwa Mulungu kunaikigoda chake cha undewa. 6 Mtwanziyuyo kakimbilila kuluwala, hanhu hayam-tandile Mulungu, kuko kalolesigwa kwasiku elufumojamaganamabili namalongosita.

7 Abaho kulawilila ng'hondo kuulanga.Mikaeli na wasenga wayage wa kuulangawaitowa na zoka dijo, najo dizoka hamojana wasenga zake diitowa nao, 8 lakinizoka dijo na wasenga zake wahumigwa,hawakalile na hanhu hakukala kuko kuu-langa. 9 Avo zoka dijo kulu jasigwa hasi,najo dijo zoka da umwaka, dikemigwa ijaImdumuka hebu Mwenembago, najo dijodiwavizila wanhuwose wamwiisi. Jasigwahasi mwiisi hamoja na wasenga zake.

10Abahomhulika sauti kuulanga ilonga,“Sambi Mulungu kawakombola wanhuwake na Mulungu mndewa wetu kolagusanguvu zake! Sambi Kilisito iyamsagulekalagusa mamulaka gake! Kwavija yuyo

13 Zoka dijo vijone jasigwa mwiisi, dis-onga kumsaka mtwanzi ija yalelile mwanawa ikimbigalo. 14 Mtwanzi yuyo kag-weleligwa mabawa mabili ga mhungumkulu muladi yaguluke kutali na zokadijo, mbaka hanhu hake kuko kuluwala,kuko kokala goya kwa miyaka midatu nanusu. 15Abaho, dizoka dideka mazi mengikamba ga lwanda mkulu, gamuwinza kuk-isogo mtwanzi yuyo muladi gamkulule.16 Lakini isi imtaza mtwanzi yuyo, igubukana kugafonza mazi galawile mumulomowa zoka dijo. 17 Avo zoka dijo dige-vuzika ng'hani, disegela dichola kuitowana wana wayagwe wa mtwanzi yuyo, awowao wanhu wogoga malagizo ga Mulunguna wogoga ukweli ugubuligwe na Yesu.18 Abaho zoka dijo dima kumgwazo wabahali.

13Ming'onyo mibili

1 Abaho nijona ng'onyo dolawa mba-hali. Dina mhembe longo na mapalasaba, uchanha ya kila mhembe kukala nataji na uchanha ya kila pala kukala natwaga da kumuliga Mulungu. 2 Ng'onyodijo diigala na duma, na dina mifumbikamba ya dubu na lomo jake diigala nalomo da simba. Zoka dijo dimgwaa ajoding'onyo nguvu yake na kigoda chake chaundewa na udahi wake. 3 Pala dimoja dang'onyo ajo joneka na ng'hovu ya londadilondile kumkoma, lakini londa jake di-hona. Wanhu wa mwiisi yose wakanganyana kudikweleleza. 4 Wanhu wose wadi-tambikila zoka dijo kwavija dimgwaa ajoding'onyo udahi wake. Vivija waditambik-ila ajo ding'onyo walonga, “Nani yaigalilena ng'onyo dino? Nani yodaha kuitowanajo?”

5Abaho ajo ding'onyo ditogoleligwa ku-longa mbuli za kuitapa na kumuliga Mu-lungu, digweleligwa udahi kwa kipindi cha

Wakomboligwa kulawa mgatimwa wanhu, wawa wanhu wa ichan-duso kulavigwa kwa Mulungu na kwaMwanang'hondolo. 5Wanhu awo hawanalonga uvizi wowose, na waduhu kinhuchochose kihile kumwao.

Wasenga wadatu wa kuulanga6 Abaho nimona msenga iyagwe wa

Kakala na tajiya zahabu mdipala jake na sengo ikutwamumkono wake. 15 Abaho msenga iyagwewa kuulanga kalawa mng'anda ya Mu-lungu ako kuulanga, kakemelela kamulon-gela ayo yakalile mdiwingu, “Chonde, solasengo yako usenge vihandigwe, kwavijakipindi cha kusenga kivika, vihandigwemwiisi vikangala.” 16 Baho ayo yakalilemdiwingu kazungulusa sengo yakemwiisi,na vihandigwe mwiisi visengigwa.

15Mikubulo saba

1Abaho ndola kuulanga nyona kilagusokiyagwe kikulu cha kukanganya. Kukalana wasenga saba wa kuulanga wakalile namikubulo saba ya uhelelo, kwa mikubuloayo saba ng'hasiliki ya Mulungu yokuwaimala.

2 Abaho nyona kinhu kamba bahaliya kiyoo ihanganyigwe na moto. Vivijaniwona wanhu waja wadihumile dijading'onyo na sanamu yake na dijo twagajake dolagusigwa kwa namba. Wanhu awowema kumgwazo wa ija ibahali ya kiyookuno wagoga mabango gawagweleligwena Mulungu. 3 Wemba lwila lwa Musamsang'hanaji wa Mulungu na lwila lwaMwanang'hondolo,“Gweye Mndewa Mulungu uli na Udahi

3 Abaho msenga wa kabili wa kuulangakakutula bakuli jake mbahali. Mazi gosegawa damu kamba damu ya munhu yafile,na kila kiumbe kili na ugima mbahali kifa.

4Abahomsenga wa kadatu wa kuulangakakutula bakuli jake mna imizanda namna zinzasa za mazi, vose viwa damu.5 Nimuhulika msenga wa kuulangamulolesaji wa mazi kolonga, “Gweyeung'alile, gweye uli baha na ukalile baha.Gweye kutagusa viilondeka! 6 Kwavijaweta damu ya wanhu wa Mulungu nawatula ndagu, avo gweye kuwagwaa damuwang'we.

8 Abaho msenga wa ikane wa kuu-langa kakutula bakuli jake kudizuwa, zuwadikala na nguvu ya kuwasoma wanhu kwaukali wake. 9Wanhu wasomigwa na zuwana wadiliga twaga da Mulungu, yeli naudahi kwa mikubulo ayo. Lakini hawalek-ile bule nzambi zao na kumgwaa ukuluMulungu.

10 Abaho msenga wa tano wa kuulangakakutula bakuli jake aho hodikala dijading'onyo. Ziza jenela muundewa wa ajoding'onyo, na wanhu wailuma milimi yaombuli ya usungu, 11 wamuliga Mulunguwa kuulanga kwa usungu wao na milonda,lakini hawalekile bule nzambi zao.

12 Abaho msenga wa sita wa kuulangakakutula bakuli jake hana ulwanda mkuluwa Eufulate. Mazi gake ganyala, avo nzilailawilila kwa wandewa wolawa mwambuwa kudilawila zuwa. 13 Abaho niwonavinyamkela wadatu waigalile na mibulwa,imoja kalawa mudilomo wa dija dizoka naiyagwe mudilomo wa dija ding'onyo naiyagwe mumulomo wa ija imtula ndaguwa uvizi. 14 Zino azo loho ndatu zavinyamkela wotenda unzonza. Loho azondatu zochola kwa wandewa wose wamwiisi, kuweka hamoja kwa ng'hondomna isiku ng'hulu ya Mulungu yeli naUdahi wose.

Mng'andaya Mulungu kuna ikigoda cha undewakulawa sauti, ilonga, “Imala kutendeka!”18 Kulawilila mimwesa na mdudumo nang'huwanamtigisikowa isi. Mtigisiko awowa isi mkulu ng'hani haunalawila tokaMulungu yaumbe munhu. 19 Buga dijakulu ditulika vihande vidatu, mabuga gosega mwiisi ganangika.

Nayovivija ni imoja wa iwaja wandewa saba nakobanangigwa.

12 “Zija mhembe longo ziwone awowandewa, awo wang'hali hawana-songa kutawala.

18Kunangigwa kwa Babeli

1 Abaho nimona msenga iyagwe kohu-muluka kuulanga. Kakala na udahi mkuluna isi imwemweselwa kwa mng'alo wake.2Kalonga kwa sauti ng'hulu,“Kugwa! buga kulu da Babeli kugwa!Sambi kawa kae ya vinyamkelana loho zihile,kawa kae ya ndege wehile na wanyama

9 Abaho ayo imsenga wa kuulangakanongela, “Yandika vino, ‘Wamwedawanhu wose wagonekigwe kunainyimwili nyimwili ya zengele daMwanang'hondolo!’ ” Vivija kalonga,“Mbuli zino za ukweli za Mulungu.”

10 Nigwa kingubanguba mmagulu gakenilonda kumtambikila, lakini kanongela,“Sekeutende vivo! Niye na msang'hanajikamba gweye na wayago wamtogoleYesu, wogoga ukweli ugubuligwe naYesu. Mtambikile Mulungu! Kwavijawanhu wogoga ukweli ugubuligwe naYesu wolongozigwa na loho yawalongozewatula ndagu wa Mulungu.”

Falasi mzelu na ija yomkwela11 Abaho nyona ulanga uvuguligwa na

kukala na falasi mzelu. Ayo yomkwelakakemigwa, “Yotamaniligwa” na “Kweli.”Ayo kotagusa na koitowa kwa mbuliya gaja golondigwa. 12 Meso gakekamba lambi da moto, na kavala matajimengi mdipala jake. Kakala yandikigwetwaga, kuduhu yoyose yadijuwile ilaheyo mwenyego yaiyeka. 13 Kakalayavalile kiwalo kizovekigwe mwiidamu.Twaga jake kakemigwa, “Mbuli yaMulungu.” 14 Wakalizi wa kuulangawamkweleleza kuno wakwela falasiwazelu na wavala viwalo va kitani, vizelung'hani na ving'ala. 15 Sime dikutwadilawa mumulomo wake, na kwa sime dijokowahumawanhuwa isi zose. Kowatawalakwa mkongoja wa zuma, na koikamadivai hanhu ha kukamila zabibu hang'hasiliki ya Mulungu yeli na Udahiwose. 16 Mkiwalo chake na mdihazajake jandikigwa twaga dino, “Mndewa waiwandewa na Mkulu wa iwakulu.”

17 Abaho nimona msenga wa kuulangakema mdizuwa. Kakemelela kwa sauting'hulu kawalongela ndege wose wakalilewoguluka, kuna uulanga, “Izoni! It-ing'hanileni hamoja mbuli ya nyimwilinyimwili ng'hulu ya Mulungu! 18 Izonimuje ng'huli za wandewa wakulu, wakuluwa wakalizi na wakalizi na muje falasina wanhu wowakwela, muje ng'huli zawanhuwose, wakomboligwe nawatumwa,wakulu kwa wadodo!”

19 Abaho nijona dija ding'onyo hamojana wandewa wakulu wa mwiisi nawakalizi wao, waiting'hana hamojawatende ng'hondo na ija yakwelile falasihamoja na wakalizi zake. 20 Lakini ajoding'onyo digogigwa hamoja na mtulandagu wa uvizi yakalile yotenda unzonzahanhu ha ding'onyo.

20Miyaka elufu imoja

1 Abaho nimona msenga wa kuu-langa kohumuluka kulawa kuulangakuno kagoga luvugulo lwa mwina wakolombo dilibule uhelelo na mnyololomkulu. 2 Kadigoga dija dizoka, zoka daumwaka najo dijo ija Imdumuka, hebuMwenembago, kadifunga kwa kipindi chamiyaka elufu imoja. 3 Msenga ayo wakuulanga kadipigisa zoka ajo kudikolombodilibule uhelelo, kadihindila na kekasio mumulomo wa dikolombo, muladisekediwavizile kabili wanhu wa isi mbakavonda imale ayo imiyaka elufu imoja.Yahamala miyaka ayo dofunguliligwalakini kwa kipindi kidodo.

4 Abaho nyona vigoda va undewa, nawanhu wavikalile wagweleligwa udahiwa kutagusa. Vivija nyona loho zawanhu waja wakanhigwe mapala mbuliya kugoga ukweli ugubuligwe na Yesuna mbuli ya kuwapetela wanhu mbuli yaMulungu. Hawaditambikile dija ding'onyohebu sanamu yake, vivija hawekigwekilaguso mvihanga vao hebu mmakono

Ifa ya kabili hondaiwagoge kabili, wokuwa walava nhosa waMulungunaKilisito, nawolongoza hamojanayo miyaka elufu imoja.

Kubanangigwa kwa Mwenembago7 Yahamala miyaka ayo elufu imoja,

Mwenembago kolekesigwa kulawamkifungo chake, 8 avo kolawa kunzekosonga kuwavizila wanhu wapwililikemwiisi yose, nazo azo isi za Gogu naMagogu. Mwenembago koweka hamojambuli ya ng'hondo, wanhu awo wokuwawengi kamba msanga wa mhwani.9 Wagenda mwiisi yose, wahazungulukahanhu hawakalile wanhu wa Mulungu nabuga diyadinogele Mulungu.

Nhaguso ya uhelelo11 Abaho nyona kigoda kikulu cha un-

dewa kizelu, ayo yakikalile, isi na ulangavisegela mgameso gake, na havoneke ka-bili. 12 Abaho nyona wanhu wafile,wakulu kwa wadodo, wema kuulongoziwa kigoda cha undewa, na vitabu vifun-guligwa. Abaho kitabu kiyagwe kifun-guligwa, nacho acho kitabu cha ugima.Wanhu wafile watagusigwa kamba viwa-tendile, na kamba viyandikigwe mvitabuvivo. 13Bahali iwalava kunzewanhuwafilewakalile mgati yake, ifa na kowocholawanhu wafile viwalava wanhu wakalilemumo. Kila munhu katagusigwa kambaviyatendile. 14 Abaho ifa na kowocholawanhu wafile vasigwa mdilamba da moto.Moto uno awo ifa ya kabili. 15 Munhuyoyose twaga jake hajandikigwe mna ik-itabu cha ugima, kasigwa mdilamba damoto.

21Ulanga wa sambi na Isi ya sambi

1 Abaho nyona ulanga wa sambi na isiya sambi. Ulanga wa ichanduso na isi

ya ichanduso vikala visegele, nayo ba-hali haikalile kuko kabili. 2 Nyona bugading'alile, Yelusalemu ya sambi, dihumu-luka kulawa kuulanga. Dikala ditandigwevinogile kamba mtwanzi yosoligwa viy-ohambigwa yakaiting'hane na mkasanowake. 3 Abaho mhulika sauti ng'hulu ku-lawa kukigoda cha undewa, “Sambi kae yaMulungu ya hamoja na wanhu! Kokalanao, na wao wokuwa wanhu zake. Mu-lungu mwenyego kokuwa nao. Nayokokuwa Mulungu wao. 4 Nayo kowa-hangusa mahozi gao gose. Ifa hondaiwe kuko kabili hebu kunyunyuwala hebukulila hebu usungu. Kwavija mbuli zaumwaka zibita.”

5 Abaho ayo yokala mna ikigoda chaundewa kalonga, “Novitenda va sambivinhu vose!” Vivija kalonga, “Yandikambuli ino, kwavija mbuli zino za ukwelina zakutamaniligwa.” 6 Abaho kanon-gela, “Imala kutendeka! Niye na Alufana Omega, waichanduso na waikimam-bukizo. Munhu yoyose yeli na ng'hilunomgwaa bule yang'we mazi ga nzasa yaugima. 7 Munhu yonda yahume kopatavinhu avo vose, na niye nokuwa Mulunguwake, nayo kokuwa mwanangu. 8 Lakiniwanhu wodumba na woleka kutogola nawanhu wotenda mbuli zigevuza na wako-maji nawagoni nawahawi nawanhuwovi-tambikila vinyago na wavizi, wose hanhuhao kudilamba da moto na mabwe gok-waka, ayo iyo ifa ya kabili.”

Kandagusila Yelusalemu, Bugading'ala, dohumuluka kulawa kuulangakwa Mulungu, 11 ding'ala kwa ukulu waMulungu. Buga dija ding'ala kamba dibweda bei ng'hulu ng'hani kamba yasipi nakamba kiyoo. 12 Buga dijo dikala naluwa mtali na mkulu, lukalile na milangomikulu longo na mibili na wasengawa kuulanga longo na wabili wakalawokaliza. Uchanha ya kila mulangomkulugandikigwa matwaga ga makabila longo

Msenga ayowa kuulanga kadipima buga dijo kwa lu-biki, dikala na ugazi na utali na utali wakuchola uchanha kamba kilomita elufumbili na magana mane. 17 Vivija msengaayo wa kuulanga kalupima luwa lwa bugadijo, lukala na ugazi wa magulu sitini nasita kwa kipimo cha wanhu. 18 Luwalwake lukala luzengigwekwamabwegabeing'hulu gokemigwa yasipi, na dijo dibugadizengigwa kwa zahabu inogile, ing'alakamba kiyoo. 19 Mabwe ga chandusilocha luwa lulo gahambigwa kwa mabwega bei ng'hulu.

22Lwanda lwa mazi ga ugima

1 Vivija ayo imsenga wa kuulangakandagusila lwanda lwa mazi ga ugima,gong'ala kamba kiyoo, golawa mkigodacha undewa wa Mulungu na chaMwanang'hondolo. 2 Lwanda ulo lukilimahagati ha nzila ng'hulu ya buga. Kilamwambu wa lwanda ulo kukala na mbikiwa ugima, ulela matunda miyanza longona mibili kwa mwaka, ndiyo kulonga,ulela kila mwezi na majani gake dawa yakuwahonya wanhu wa isi zose. 3 Kuduhuchochose kiduiligwe na Mulungu chondakikale kudibuga dijo.

Kwiza kwa Yesu6 Abaho ayo imsenga wa kuulanga

8 Niye Yohana mbonile na kuhulikambuli zino. Vimbone na kuhulika, nigwakingubangubammagulu gake ayo imsengawa kuulanga yandagusile mbuli zino,nilonda kumtambikila. 9 Lakini heyokanongela, “Sekeutende vivo!

12 Yesu kolonga, “Tegeleza! Nokwizahima hamoja na nhunza yonda nimgweekila munhu kamba viyasang'hane. 13Niyena Alufa na Omega, waichanduso nawaiki-mambukizo, mwanduso na uhelelo wavinhu vose.

17 Loho wa Mulungu na Mtwanziyosoligwa wolonga, “Izo!”

Kila munhu yohulika gano, yalonge,“Izo!”

Munhu yeli na ng'hilu yeze, na munhuyolonda, yasole mazi ga ugima bila kulipa.

Mbuli za kimambukizo18 Niye nowazuma wanhu wose wohu-
