Tua hun laitak in tuiphumpa John hong theng a, Judah ngam duisung ah thuhil hi,

3 Nokuti uyu ndiye wakarehwa nezvake naIsaya muporofita, achiti: Inzwi reanodanidzira murenje: Gadzirirai mugwagwa waIshe, ruramisai nzira dzake.
Banghangziam cile hi thu sia, duisung ah a au mikhat i aw in, Topa pai na lampi pua vun, tangsak vun, ci kamsang Isaiah in John thu sonkhol zo hi.
4 Uyuwo Johwani waiva nechipfeko chake chemakushe ekamera nebhanhire rechikumba rakapoteredza chiuno chake; nekudya kwake kwaiva mhashu neuchi hwedondo.

5 Zvino kwakabudira kwaari Jerusarema neJudhiya rese nedunhu rese rakapoteredza Joridhani;
Taciang Jerusalem pan ahizong, Judah ngam khua tatuam pan ahizong, Jordan ngun kiim theampo pan ahizong a kung ah hongpai tek uh hi.
6 ndokubhabhatidzwa naye muna Joridhani vachireurura zvivi zvavo.
Amate mawna tek uh pualak in, Jordan ngun sung ah tui ki phum uh hi.
7 Asi wakati achiona vazhinji veVaFarisi neVaSadhusi vachiuya kurubhabhatidzo rwake akati kwavari: Zvizvarwa zvenyoka, ndiani wakakuratidzirai kuti mutize hasha dzinouya?

Mawna pan ki sikkikna taw a kilawm nga pha te nga tavun:
9 Uye musafunga kutaura mukati menyu muchiti: Tina Abhurahama anova baba; nokuti ndinoti kwamuri: Mwari anokwanisa kubva pamabwe aya kumutsira Abhurahama vana.
Ka pa uh Abraham hi ci in na thin sung ah ngaisun heak vun: banghangziam cile, Pathian in hi suangtum te Abraham suan le pal in vawt thei hi, ci kong son hi.
10 Uye ikozvinowo sanhu ratoiswa pamudzi wemiti, naizvozvo muti umwe neumwe usingaiti chibereko chakanaka unotemwa ugokandirwa mumoto.

Tua laitak in Jesus sia Galilee pan Jordan ngun ah tui ki phum tu in John kung ah hongpai hi.
14 Asi Johwani wakamurambidza achiti: Ini kunodikanwa kuti ndibhabhatidzwe nemwi, asi imwi mouya kwandiri?
Ahihang John in ama tho a, Keima sia nangma i nong tuiphum tu hizaw napi, kei kung ah nang hongpai zaw ni ziam? ci hi.
15 Asi Jesu achipindura wakati kwaari: Tenda ikozvino, nokuti saizvozvo zvakatifanira kuti tizadzise kururama kwese. Ipapo akamutendera.
Tasiaciang Jesus in Tu hile hibang hi phot hen, banghangziam cile thutang suana theampo a kicin kul hi, ci hi. Taciang John zong thukim hi.
