1 Yesu ajhingili ni kup'eta pagati pa Yeriko.
2 Ni apu pajhele ni munu mmonga jhaakutibhweghe Zakayo. Ambajhe ajhele mbaha ghwa bhatoza ushuru kabhele munu tajiri.
3 Akajha ijaribu kumbona Yesu ndo munu kulola kwandabha jha umati bhwa bhanu, kwandabha ajhe mfupi ghwa kimo.
4 Hivyo, alongolili mbio mbele sya bhanu, akakwela panani pa mkuyu ili abhwesiajhi kumbona, kwandabha Yesu akaribili kup'etela njela ejhu.
5 Wakati Yesu afikili mahali pala, akalenga kunani akan'jobhela, 'Zakayo, selelayi manyata, maana lelu lazima nishindayi munyumba jha bhebhe.'.
6 Akabhomba haraka, akaselela ni kun'karibisya kwa furaha.
7 Bhanu bhoha bho bhabhuene aghu bhalalamiki, bhakajobha, 'Alotili kun'gendela munu mwenye dhambi.'
8 Zakayo akajhema akan'jobhela Bwana, Nusu gha mali jha nene nikabhapela maskini, na jhikajhiajhi ninyakili munu jhejhioha khenu, ni betakunkerebhusila mara nne.'
9 Yesu akan'jobhela, lelu wokovu ufikili munyumba ejhe, kwandabha muene kabhele ni mwana ghwa Ibrahimu.
10 Kwandabha mwana ghwa munu ahidili kulonda ni kuokola bhanu bhabhajhaghili.'
11 Bho ap'eliki aghu, ajhendelili kulongela ni kupisya mifano, kwandabha ajhele karibu ni Yerusalemu, ni bhene bhafikilireghe kujha ndo Mfalme bhwa K'yara ajhele karibu kubhonekana mara jhimonga.
12 Hivyo akabhajobhela, 'Ofisa mmonga alotili nchi jha patali ili apokelayi ufalme ni kisha akerebhukajhi.
13 Abhakutili bhatumishi bhwa muene kumi, akabhapela mafungu kumi, akabhajobhela, mubhombelayi biashara mpaka pa nibeta kukerebhuka.'
14 Lakini bhananchi bha muene bhan'dadili na hivyo bhakalaghisya bhajumbe bhalotayi kun'kesya ni kujobha, Twilondalepi munu ojho atutawalayi.'
15 Ikajha bho akerebhwiki kunyumba baada jha kujha mfalme, akaamuru bhala bhatumishi bha abhalakili hela bhakutibhwayi kwa muene, abhwesiajhi kumanya faida jheleku bhajhikabhili kwa kubhomba biashara.
16 Wa kuanza akahida, akajobha, `Bwana, fungu lya jhobhi libhombili mafungu kumi zaidi.'
17 Ofisa ojhu akan'jobhela, kinofu mtumishi rinofu. Kwandabha wajhele ghwe mwaminifu mu khenu kidebe, wibeta kujha ni madaraka juu jha miji kumi.'
18 Wa pili akahida, akajobha, 'Bwana, fungu lya jhobhi libhombili mafungu mahanu.'
19 Afisa ojhu akan'jobhela, 'Tolayi mamlaka juu jha miji mihanu.'
20 Ni jhongi akahida, akajobha, `Bwana ejhe apa hela jha jhobhi najhitunzili kinofu mu kitambala,
21 Kwandabha natikili bhebhe ghwe n'kali. ghwibhosya khela kya ubhekilepi ni kuvuna khela kya ubelikupanda.'
22 Afisa ojhu akan'jobhela, 'Kwa malobhi ghaku ghwe muene, nibeta kuhukumu, ebhe mtumishi n'nofu lepi. Ghwamanyili kujonene ne munu nenkali nitola kya nikibhekilepi ni kuvuna ambakyo napandilepi.
23 Basi, mbona ghwabhekilepi hela jha nene benki, ili nikakerebhukayi niitolayi pamonga ni faida?
24 Ofisa akabhajobhela bhanu bhabhajhemili apu, 'Munyakayi lifungu e'lu ni kumpela jhola mwenye mafungu kumi.'
25 Bhakan'jobhela, `Bwana, muene ajhe ni mafungu kumi.'
26 'Nikabhajobhela, kila munu jhaa jhe naku ibeta kupelibhwa nesu, lakini jhaadulili, hata khela kya ajhenaku kitolibhwa.
27 Lakini abha maadui bha nene, ambabho bhilonda lepi nijhelayi mfalme ghwa bhene, mubhaletayi apa ni kubhakoma mbele jha muenga.”
28 Baada jha kujobha aghu, akajhendelela palongolo akakwela kulota Yerusalemu.
29 Bho akaribili Bethfage ni Bethania, karibu ni kidonda kya Mizeituni, akabhalaghisya bhanafunzi bha muene bhabhele,
30 Akajobha: `Mulotayi mu kijiji kya jirani. Mkajhingilayi, mwibeta kun'kolela mwana -punda apandisibhulepi akona. Mumbopolayi, mundetayi kwa nene.
31 Kama munu abhakotili kwandajha kiki mwibhopola? 'Mujobhayi, “Bwana akandonda.”
32 Bhala bhabhatumibhu bhakalota bhakambona mwana-punda kama Yesu kyaabhajobhili.
33 Bho bhikambopola mwana-punda bhamiliki bhakebhajobhela, 'Kwandajha kiki mkambopola mwana punda ojhu?'
34 Bhakajobha, `Bwana akandonda.'
35 Basi, bhakampelekela Yesu bhakatandika ghobho sya bhene panani pa mwana punda ni kun'kwesya Yesu panani.
36 Bho ilota bhanu bhakatandasya maguanda gha bhene mu njela.
37 Bho iselela kidonda kya Mizeituni, jumuiya jhioha jha bhanafunzi bhakajhanda kushangilila ni kun'tukusya k'yara kwa sauti mbaha, kwandabha jha mambo mabhaha bhaghabhwene,
38 Bhakajobha, 'Ndo mbarikibhwa mfalme jhaihida kwa lihina lya Bwana! Amani kumbinguni, ni utukufu panani!'
39 Baadhi jha Mafarisayo pa mkutano bhakan'jobhela, Mwalimu, bhagudamisiajhi bhanafunzi bha jhobhi.'
40 Yesu akajibu akajobha, `Nikabhajobhela, kama abha bhakagudamayi, maganga ghibeta kukwesya sauti.'
41 Yesu bhoaukaribili mji aulelili,
42 Akajobha, laiti ngaumanyi hata bhebhe, mu ligono e'le mambo ambagho ghibeta kuletela amani! Lakini henu ghakifighili pamihu gha jhobhi.
43 Kwa kujha magono ghihida ambagho maadui bha jhobhi bhibeta kujenga liboma karibu ni bhebhe ni kukusyongoka ni kukukandamisya kuh'oma khila lubhafu.
44 Bhibeta kubinisya pasi bhebhe ni bhanabhu. Bhibeta lepi kulekela hata liganga limonga panani pa l'enge, kwandabha ghwatambuili lepi wakati K'yara bho ijaribu kuokola'.
45 Yesu akajhingila mu lihekalu, akajhanda kubhabhenga bhala bhabhahemelisiaghe,
46 Akabhajobhela, “Jhilembibhu, 'Nyumba jha nene jhibeta kujha nyumba jha sala, 'lakini muenga mujhifwanyili kujha lipangu lya bhanyang'anyi”.
47 Henu, Yesu akajha ifundisya khila ligono mu hekalu. Makuhani bhabhaha ni bhalimu bha sheria ni bhalongosi bha bhanu bhalondeghe kun'koma,
48 Lakini bhabhwesi lepi kukabha njela jha kubhomba naha, kwandabha bhanu bhoha bhajhele bha kamp'el'ek'esya kwa makini.
