13 Koma ndinena ndi inu kuti anafikadi Eliya, ndipo anamcitiranso ziri zonse iwo anazifuna, monga kwalembedwa za iye.
14 Ndipo pamene anadza kwa ophunzira, anaona khamu lalikuru la anthu ozungulira iwo, ndi alembi alikufunsana nao.
15 Ndipo pomwepo anthu onse a khamulo, pakumuona Iye, anazizwa kwambiri, namthamangira Iye, namlankhula.
16 Ndipo anawafunsa iwo, Mufunsa na nao ciani?
17 Ndipo wina wa m'khamulo anamyankha Iye, kuti, Mphunzitsi, ndadza naye kwa Inu mwana wanga, ali nao mzimu wosalankhula;
18 ndipo ponse pamene umgwira, umgwetsa; ndipo acita thobvu, nakukuta mano, nanyololoka; ndipo ndinalankhula nao ophunzira anu kuti auturutse; koma sanakhoza.
19 Ndipo Iye anawayankha nanena, Mbadwo wosakhulupirira inu, ndidzakhala ndi inu kufikira liti? ndidzakulekererani nthawi yanji? Mudze naye kwa Ine.
20 Ndipo anadza naye kwa Iye; ndipo pakumuona, pomwepo mzimuwo unamng'amba koopsya; ndipo anagwa pansi nabvimbvinika ndi kucita thobvu.
21 Ndipo Iye anafunsa atate wace, kuti, Cimeneci cinayamba kumgwira liti? Ndipo anati, Cidamyamba akali mwana.
22 Ndipo kawiri kawiri ukamtaya kumoto ndi kumadzi, kumuononga; koma ngati mukhoza kucita kanthu mtithandize, ndi kuticitira cifundo.
23 Ndipo Yesu ananena naye, Ngati mukhoza! Zinthu zonse zitheka ndi iye wakukhulupirira.
24 Pomwepo atate wa mwana anapfuula, nanena, Ndikhulupirira; thandizani kusakhulupirira kwanga.
25 Ndipo pamene Yesu anaona kuti khamu la anthu lirikuthamangira pamodzi, anadzudzula mzimu woipawo, nanena ndi uwo, Mzimu wosalankhula ndi wogontha iwe, Ine ndikulamula iwe, turuka mwa iye, ndipo usalowenso mwa iye.
26 Ndipo pamene unapfuula, numng'ambitsa, unaturuka; ndipo mwana anakhala ngati wakufa; kotero kuti ambiri ananena, Wamwalira.
27 Koma Yesu anamgwira dzanja lace, namnyamutsa; ndipo anaimirira.
28 Ndipo pamene Iye adalowa m'nyumba, ophunzira ace anamfunsa m'tseri, kuti, Nanga bwanji sitinakhoza ife kuuturutsa?
29 Ndipo Iye anati kwa iwo, Mtundu uwu sukhoza kuturuka ndi kanthu kena konse, koma ndi kupemphera.
30 Ndipo anacoka iwo kumeneko, napyola pakati pa Galileya; ndipo Iye sanafuna kuti munthu adziwe.
31 Pakuti anaphunzitsa ophunzira ace, nanena nao, kuti, Mwana wa munthu aperekedwa m'manja a anthu, ndipo adzamupha Iye; ndipo ataphedwa, adzauka pofika masiku atatu.
32 Koma iwo sanazindikira mauwo, naopa kumfunsa.
33 Ndipo iwo anadza ku Kapernao; ndipo pamene anakhala m'nyumba, Iye anawafunsa, Munalikutsutsana ninji panjira?
34 Koma iwo anakhala cete; pakuti anatsutsana wina ndi mnzace panjira, kuti, wamkuru ndani?
35 Ndipo m'mene anakhala pansi anaitana khumi ndi awiriwo; nanena nao, Ngati munthu afuna kukhala woyamba, akhale wakuthungo wa onse, ndi mtumiki wa onse.
36 Ndipo anatenga kamwana, nakaika pakati pao, nakayangata, nanena nao,
37 Munthu ali yense adzalandira kamodzi ka tiana totere cifukwa ca dzina langa, alandira ine; ndipo yense amene akalandira Ine, salandira Ine, koma Iye amene anandituma Ine.
38 Yohane anati kwa Iye, Mphunzitsi, tinaona munthu alikuturutsa ziwanda m'dzina lanu; ndipo tinamletsa, cifukwa sanalikutsata ife.
39 Koma Yesu anati, Musamamletsa iye; pakuti palibe munthu adzacita camphamvu m'dzina langa, nadzakhoza msanga kundinenera Ine zoipa.
40 Pakuti iye wosatsutsana ndi ife athandizana nafe.
41 Pakuti munthu ali yense adzakumwetsani inu cikho ca madzi m'dzina langa cifukwa muli ace a Kristu, indetu ndinena ndi inu, kuti iye sadzataya konse mphotho yace.
42 Ndipo yense amene adzalakwitsa kamodzi ka tiana timeneto takukhulupirira Ine, kuli kwabwino kwa iye makamaka kuti mwala waukuru wamphero ukolowekedwe m'khosi mwace, naponyedwe iye m'nyanja.
43 Ndipo ngati dzanja lako likulakwitsa iwe, ulidule: nkwabwino kwa iwe kulowa m'moyo wopunduka dzanja, koposa kukhala ndi manja ako awiri ndi kulowa m'gehena, m'moto wosazima.[
