Lishaka limu Zakariya kaweriti kankutenda lihengu lyakuwi lya utambika Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, toziya shiweriti shipindi shakuwi sha kutambika.
9 Lino kwelana ne cinga ca beshimilumbo, balasala Sakaliya kwambeti ayenga mu Ng'anda ya Lesa kuya kutenta lubani.
Kulawirana na vitiba vya watambika, Zakariya kasyagulitwi kwa kugalambuziya simbi kwingira Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu su katumiziyi ubani.
10 Pacindi Sakaliya mpwalikutenta lubani, likoto lya bantu balikuba pansa kabapaila.
Shipindi Zakariya pakaweriti kankutumiziya ubani, lipinga lya wantu waweriti walivaga pamuhera kunja wankumluwa Mlungu.

Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa Mtuwa kamlawiriti Zakariya, kagolokiti uwega wa kumliwu pashitalawanda sha kutambikira ubani.
12 Sakaliya walakankamana nekutina.
Zakariya pakamwoniti, kalilimuka, kaweriti na lyoga.
13 Nsombi mungelo uyo walamwambileti, “Kotatina Sakaliya, Lesa lanyumfu kupaila kwakobe, neco mukashobe lisabeti nakakusemene mwana mutuloba ukamutumbe lineti Yohane.
Kumbiti ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kamgambiriti, “Nagutira Zakariya! Mlungu kapikanira kala kuluwa kwaku. Mdala gwaku Elizabeti hakakuleleri mwana mpalu. Na mwana ayu litawu lyakuwi gumshemi Yohani.

Yomberi hakaweri nemeru na nemeleru kwaku, wantu wavuwa hawaweri na nemeleru kwa kwiwuka kwakuwi.
15 Pakwinga mwana uyo nakabe mukulene pamenso a Lesa, kayi nteshi akanwenga waini nambi byeshikukola. Nakakutenga ngofu sha Mushimu Uswepa nkacili mulibunda.
Yomberi hakaweri mkulu pamasu pa Mtuwa, hakalandi ndiri divayi ama ujimbi, yomberi hakamemi Rohu Mnanagala kwanjira mumtima mwa mawu gwakuwi.
16 Uyu muntu nakenshisheti ba Isilayeli bangi bakabwele kuli Mwami Lesa wabo.

Yomberi hakamlongoleri Mtuwa, hakaweri na makakala pamuhera na uwezu ntambu yakaweriti Eliya mbuyi gwa Mlungu. Hakawajegi kayi pamuhera wana na watati, hakawawuziyi wantu yawamjimira ndiri Mlungu kuwera na maholu ga wantu yawamfiriziya Mlungu na kumtandira Mtuwa wantu yawasyagulitwi.”
18 Sakaliya walepusha mungelo uyo, “Nomba nganjishibaconi kwambeti ncolambanga nicikenshike? Pakwinga ame ndacekulu neye mukashame lacekulu.”
Zakariya kamkosiya ntumintumi gwa kumpindi, “Hanuvimani hashi shisoweru ashi? Toziya neni pamuhera na mdala gwangu twawagogolu.”
19 Mungelo usa walakumbuleti, ame njame Gabiliyeli. Nkute kwimana pamenso a Lesa cindi conse. Nendi elantumu kwambeti nkwambile bintu ibi.
Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kamwankula, “Neni Gaburieli yangoloka kulongolu kwa Mlungu, ndo kantuma ntakuli na gwenga na kukugambira shisoweru ashi shiwagira.
20 Nomba pakwinga uliya kushoma mulumbe uyu ngondamba weti ukenshike pacindi celela, nube cibulu nteti ucikonshenga kwamba, mpaka ibi bintu bikenshike.

21 Pacindi ico bantu balikupembelela Sakaliya balakankamana nkabepushanyeti nicani lamanta cindi citali mu Ng'anda ya Lesa?
Lipinga lya wantu liweriti lyankumuhepera Zakariya na walikangasha kwa kukawa kwakuwi mulii Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu.
22 Lino mpwalapula pansa nkalikucikonsha kwamba nabo. Nomba nabo balenshiba kwambeti labono cimboni mboni, popelapo walatatika kwamba ne makasa mbuli cibulu, neco walapitilisha kuba cibulu.
Pakalawiti kasinditi kutakula nawomberi, nayomberi kendereyiti kuwalanguziya kwa mawoku hera, nawomberi wavimaniti kuwera kawoniti shintu Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu.
23 Mpwalapwa masuba akusebensa mu Ng'anda ya Lesa, Sakaliya walaya kucomwabo.
Pashiperiti kala shipindi shakuwi sha kutenda lihengu Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, kagenditi ukaya kwakuwi.
24 Panyuma pakendi Lisabeti walemita, lino nkalikupulapula mu ng'anda kwamyenshi isanu nkambeti,
Pa mashaka galii mdala gwakuwi Elizabeti kawera na yinda, kalikaliti mnumba kwa myezi muhanu,
25 “Lesa lino lanyumfwili inkumbo pakunyinshileci lafunyu insoni shakame pamenso abantu.”
kalitakuliti, “Vinu Mtuwa kamonera lusungu kwa kumusilira soni zyangu kulongolu kwa wantu.”
26 Mumwenshi wacisanu ne umo kufuma mpwalemita Lisabeti, Lesa walatuma mungelo Gabiliyeli ku munshi naumbi waku Galileya, walikukwiweti Nasaleti.
Yinda ya Elizabeti pasokiti myezi sita, Mlungu kamtumiti Gaburieli ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kagendi mpaka Galilaya, lushi lwa Nazareti.
27 Walaya ku mulindu walikukwiweti Maliya. Maliya walikuba wamamikilwa kumutuloba lina lyakendi ni Yosefe wa mumukowa wa Dafeti.
Kaweriti na shisoweru kwa muhinga bikira yakahetitwi na muntu yawamshema Yosefu, gwa shiyiwuku sha Dawudi, litawu lyakuwi ayu bikira ndo Mariya.
28 Mungelo mpwalashika kuli Maliya walambeti, mitende obe walelekwa ne Lesa. Lesa uli ne njobe.
Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kamwiziriti Mariya na kumulamusiya, “Gwakashina? Ponga iweri pamuhera na gwenga! Mtuwa kapamuhera na gwenga, kakupanana upendelewu.”
29 Maliya mpwalanyumfwa maswi a mungelo walatilimuka walipusha mumoyo wakendi eti, “Nikupa mitende kwamushobo cini uku?”
Mariya kalisheliti nentu, toziya ya shisoweru sha ntumintumi gwa kumpindi, kaliholiti mumoyu pakalikosiya, “Kulamusiya aku kwana mana gaa?”
30 Popelapo mungelo walamwambileti, “Kotatina, Maliya; Pakwinga Lesa lakunyumfwili inkumbo.
Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kamgambiriti Mariya, “Nagutira Mariya, Mlungu kakupapanana manemu.
31 Bona nukemite ne kusema mwana mutuloba ukamutumbeti Yesu.
Guloli, haguweri na yinda na kwiwula mwana mpalu na litawu lyakuwi hagumshemi Yesu.
32 “Nakabe mukulene kayi nakakwiweti mwanendi Lesa wakwilu wapitapo. Mwami Lesa nakamupe cipuna ca bwami ca Dafeti.
Ayu hakaweri mkulu, hawamshemi mwana gwa Mlungu na Mtuwa Mlungu hakampanani shibanta sha ufalumi sha Dawudi mbuyi gwakuwi.

34 Lino, Maliya walamwipusha Mungelo eti, “Nomba ici ngacinshika econi ame nkana nkumanapo ne mutuloba?”
Mariya kamgambiriti ntumintumi gwa kumpindi, “Neni haneliwoni na mpalu! Hashiweri ashi shisoweru ashi?”
35 Mungelo walakumbuleti, Mushimu Uswepa nukese palinjobe nengofu sha Lesa wapita byonse nishikakufwekelele. Neco mwana eshi akasemwe nakakwiweti waswepa, Mwanendi Lesa.
Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kamuwankula, “Rohu Mnanagala hakizi kwaku na makakala ga Mlungu hagakwizili. Toziya ayi mwana hakiwukili hakaweri mnanagala, hakashemwi Mwana gwa Mlungu.
36 “Bona mukwenu Lisabeti usa walikwambweti nkaseme, lino lapembelenga kuya kuba ne mwana mutuloba mubucembele bwakendi. Pakwinga ukute myenshi isanu ne umo kakute libunda.

37 Pakwinga paliya ceshi cikamwalile Lesa.”
Toziya kwahera shintu shashikamala kwa Mlungu.”
38 Maliya walakumbuleti, “Kacinshika mbuli momulambili, pakwinga ame ndemusha wa Mwami.” Lino mungelo usa walamushiya.
Mariya katakula, “Neni na ntumintumi gwa Mtuwa! Iweri kwa neni ntambu ya gulongiti.” Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kawukiti na kugenda zakuwi.
39 Mpopalapita masuba ang'ana, Maliya walanyamuka bulwendo bwakufwambana kuya kumusena wa milundu, kumunshi wa Yudeya.
Mashaka galii Mariya kawukiti kagenditi mpaka isi ya mulugongu lwa Yudeya.
40 Walengila mung'anda ya Sakaliya nekumupa mutende Lisabeti.
Aku kingiriti mnumba mwa Zakariya na kamlamsiyiti Elizabeti.
41 Pacindi Lisabeti mpwalanyumfwa mutende wa Maliya, mwana walatatika kunyanyala mwakukondwa mulibunda mwakendi. Lisabeti walesushiwa ne ngofu sha Mushimu Uswepa,
Elizabeti pakapikaniriti ntambu Mariya yakamlamsiyiti, nonu kadunkula mumtima mwakuwi. Elizabeti kamemiti Rohu Mnanagala,
