¹Zvino zvakaitika parimwe remazuva iwayo, achidzidzisa vanhu mutembere nekuparidza evhangeri, vapristi vakuru nevanyori vakasvika nevakuru,

¹Andek dies, kana O Jesus sas ande tampla sicharelas le narodos ai delas duma e lashi viasta, le bare rasha ai le Gramnoturia, ai le mai phure avile.

²ndokutaura kwaari vachiti: Tiudzei, munoita zvinhu izvi nesimba ripi, kana ndiani iye wakakupai simba iri?

²Ai phende leske, "Phen amenge, katar si tu kadia putiera te keres so keres? Vai kon si kodo kai dia tu kadia putiera?"

³Zvino wakapindura akati kwavari: Ini ndichakubvunzaiwo shoko rimwe; uye mundiudze:

³O Jesus phendia lenge, "Vi me akana phushav tumendar ek divano,

⁴Rubhabhatidzo rwaJohwani rwakabva kudenga, kana kuvanhu?

⁴o bolimos le Iovanosko katar sas, anda rhaio vai manushendar?"

⁵Zvino vakarangana, vachiti: Kana tikati: Kudenga; uchati: Naizvozvo makaregerei kumutenda?

⁵Ai dinepe duma mashkar pende, phenenas, "Te phenasa 'Anda rhaio,' wo phenela, ' Sostar chi pachaian les?'

⁶Asi kana tikati: Kuvanhu; vanhu vose vachatitaka nemabwe; nekuti vaiva nechokwadi kuti Johwani waiva muporofita.

⁶Numa te phenasa, 'Katar le manush,' sa o narodo shudela bax pe amende; ke o narodo zhanelas ke o Iovano sas ek profeto.

⁷Vakapindura, vachiti havazivi kwarwakabva.

⁷No won phende, 'Chi zhanas katar avilo.'"

⁸Jesu ndokuti kwavari: Neni handikuudzii kuti ndinoita zvinhu izvi nesimba ripi.

⁸Ai O Jesus phendia lenge, "Chi me chi phenav tumenge katar che putiera kerav so kerav."

⁹Zvino wakatanga kuudza vanhu mufananidzo uyu: Umwe munhu wakasima munda wemizambiringa, akauhaisa kuvarimi, akaenda parwendo nguva refu;

⁹Porme O Jesus phendia le narodoske ek paramichi: "Iek manush thodia te bariol rez, ai meklia les kaver manush te len sama, ai gelotar andek dur them but vriama.

¹⁰nenguva yakafanira wakatuma muranda kuvarimi, kuti vamupe zvechibereko chemunda wemizambiringa; asi varimi vakamurova, vakamuendesa asina chinhu.

¹⁰Kana avili e vriama te chidelpe o struguro, wo tradia ieke sluga karing le kolaver manush te lel lendar so trobul te avel lesko. Numa le manush kai chidenas o struguro marde les, ai trade les palpale bi kanchesko.

¹¹Zvino wakatumazve umwe muranda; naiye vakamurovawo vakamunyadzisa, vakamuendesa asina chinhu.

¹¹Kodo manush mai tradia ieka sluga; ai pale marde les, chinuisarde les, ai trade les bi kanchesko.

¹²Zvino wakatumazve wechitatu; uyuwo ndokumukuvadza, vakamukandira kunze.

¹²Numa kodo manush mai tradia mai ieka sluga, (o trito) ai won dukhade les, ai gonisarde les.

¹³Zvino mwene wemunda wemizambiringa wakati: Ndichaitei? Ndichatuma mwanakomana wangu unodikamwa, zvimwe vakaona iye vachamukudza.

¹³Antunchi o gazda la rezako phendia, "So te kerav? Tradav murhe shaves kai si mange drago; amborim lena pe pala leste!"

¹⁴Asi varimi vakati vachimuona vakarangana, vachiti: Uyu ndiye mugari wenhaka; uyai, ngatimuuraye, kuti nhaka igova yedu.

¹⁴Numa kana le manush kai chidenas o struguro dikhle les, denas pe duma mashkar pende, "Kodo si o shav le gazdasko, mudaras les, ai e phuv ashela amenge!"

¹⁵Vakamukandira kunze kwemunda wemizambiringa, vakauraya. Naizvozvo mwene wemunda wemizambiringa uchavaitirei?

¹⁵Ai gonisarde les dur katar e rez, ai mudarde les. "Akana, so kerel lenge o gazda la rezako?" "Avela ai mudarela kodole manushen, ai dela e rez kal kolaver."

¹⁶Uchauya, ndokuparadza varimi ivava, agopa munda wemuzambiringa vamwe. Zvino vachinzwa, vakati: Zvisadaro!

¹⁶Kana o narodo ashundia kodia, phendia, "Kasavatar diela nashti kerdiol!"

¹⁷Asi wakavatarisa, akati: Naizvozvo chii ichi chakanyorwa, chinoti: Ibwe vavaki ravakaramba, ndiro rava musoro wekona?

¹⁷O Jesus dikhlia pe lende, ai phendia, "So znachil kado ramomos? O bax kai shude kukula, saikfielo bax sas o bax kai trobulsarde."

¹⁸Wose unowira pamusoro pebwe iro, uchavhuniwavhuniwa; asi ani nani warinowira pamusoro richamukuya.

¹⁸Kon godi perela pe kodo bax avela phaglo; ai kuko kai perela o bax wo avela lichardo."

¹⁹Zvino vapristi vakuru nevanyori neawa iroro vakatsvaka kuisa maoko paari, asi vakatya vanhu; nekuti vakaziva kuti wakareva mufananidzo uyo akanangana navo.

¹⁹Le bare rasha ai le Gramnoturia dinepe duma sar te astaren les; ai won daranas anda le manushenge, ke won haliarde ke O Jesus lenge phendia kodia paramichi.

²⁰Vakamucherekedza, vakatumira vashori vakanyepedzera kuva vakarurama, kuti vamubate pakutaura, kuti vamukumikidze kuushe nesimba remutungamiriri.

²⁰Ai won lenas sama les, ai trade manushen te dikhen so kerel, kerenaspe sar chache manush, saxke te astaren les ande lesko divano, saxke te den les ka guvernori (kai si les e putiera te kerel sa wo mangel).

²¹Zvino vakamubvunza, vachiti: Mudzidzisi, tinoziva kuti munotaura nekudzidzisa zvakarurama, uye hamugamuchiri chiso, asi munodzidzisa nzira yaMwari muchokwadi.

²¹Kodala manush phushle les, "Gazda, zhanas so phenes ai sichares si vorta, ai zhanas ke chi respektis iek manush mai but sar kaver, numa sichares o zakono le Devlesko chachimasa.

²²Zviri pamutemo here kwatiri kupa mutero kuna Kesari, kana kwete?

²²Phen amenge, si amenge slobodo vai nai te pochinas taksa ka Caesar?"

²³Asi wakaziva unyengeri hwavo, ndokuti kwavari: Munondiidzirei?

²³Numa O Jesus haliardia lenge nasul ginduria, ai phendia lenge, "Sostar tume zumaven ma?"

²⁴Ndiratidzei dhenari*; Rine mufananidzo nerunyoro rwaani? Vakapindura vakati: ZvaKesari.

²⁴Sikaven mange ek kotor rupone, "Kaske fatsa ai ramomos si kado?"

²⁵Ndokuti kwavari: Naizvozvo dzorerai kuna Kesari zvinhu zvaKesari, nekuna Mwari zvinhu zvaMwari.

²⁵Won phende, "O Caesar." O Jesus phendia lenge, "Den ka Caesar so si lesko, ai den ka Del so si le Devlesko."

²⁶Vakakoniwa kumubata neshoko rake pamberi pevanhu; vakashamisika nemhinduro yake; vakanyarara.

²⁶Nashti thode leske dosh pe kado divano angla narodo; numa chudisaile andal atweto kai dia le, ai chi mai phende kanch.

²⁷Zvino kwakaswedera vamwe vevaSadhusi, vanoramba kuti kune kumuka kwevakafa, ndokumubvunza,

²⁷Uni Saduseanuria avile ka Jesus, ke mothonas ke nai traio pala e martia; ai phushle,

²⁸vachiti: Mudzidzisi, Mozisi wakatinyorera kuti: Kana mukoma wemunhu akafa ane mukadzi, asi iye akafa asina vana, munin'ina wake atore mukadzi, amutsire mukoma wake mbeu.

²⁸"Gazda, o Moses ramosardia o zakono amenge; "Te merela vari kasko phral, ai si les ek rhomni, ai nas les glate, lesko phral ansurilape leska rhomniasa, ai vazdel familia leske phraleske."

²⁹Naizvozvo kwakange kune vanakomana vemunhu umwe vanomwe; wekutanga ndokutora mukadzi, akafa asina vana;

²⁹Sas efta phral: o pervo ansurisailo, ai mulo bi te avel les glate, meklia rhomnia peske phraleske.

³⁰newechipiri akatora mukadzi uyo, naiye akafa asina mwana;

³⁰Sakadia o duito,

³¹newechitatu akamutora. Zvikadarowo nevanomwe, uye vakasasiya vana, vakafa.

³¹ai o trito, sakadia kerdilia vi le efta phralensa. Mule vi te aven le glate.

³²Pakupedzisira kwavo vose mukadzi wakafawo.

³²Akana vi e zhuvli muli.

³³Naizvozvo pakumuka kwevakafa, uchava mukadzi waani kwavari? Nekuti vanomwe vakava naye semukadzi.

³³Kana avela te zhuvindin le mule te zhan ando rhaio, saveski andal efta phral avela e rhomni ke savorhenge sas?"

³⁴Zvino Jesu wakapindura akati kwavari: Vana venyika ino vanowana, vanowaniswa;

³⁴O Jesus phendia lenge, "Le mursh ai le zhuvlia la lumiake akana ansurinpe;

³⁵asi avo vachanzi vakafanira kuwana nyika iyo nekumuka kuvakafa havawani kana kuwaniswa;

³⁵Numa le mursh ai le zhuvlia kai sai zhuvindin andai martia ka traio ai te traiin ande kolaver lumia chi mai ansurinpe.

³⁶nekuti havagoni kufazve; nekuti vakaita sevatumwa, uye vanakomana vaMwari, vari vanakomana vekumuka kwevakafa.

³⁶Nashti mai meren; ke won avena sar le angeluria ai chi meren, ai avena shaves le Devleske, ke zhuvindisar le andai martia.

³⁷Asi kuti vakafa vanomutswa, kunyange Mozisi wakaratidza pagwenzi, paakaidza Ishe Mwari waAbhurahamu, naMwari waIsaka, naMwari waJakobho.

³⁷Ai o Moses sikadia kai le mule zhuvindinas ka traio. Ande Vorba le Devleski kai mothol pai krenzha kai zhalas e iag, kana wo akharel les "O Del le Abrahamosko, O Del le Isakosko, ai O Del le Iakovosko."

³⁸Nekuti haazi Mwari wevakafa, asi wevapenyu; nekuti vose vanoraramira iye.

³⁸Ke wo nai O Del le mulengo, numa le zhuvindengo; savorhe traiin leske."

³⁹Zvino vamwe vevanyori vakapindura vakati: Mudzidzisi, mataura zvakanaka.

³⁹Uni andal Gramnoturia phende, "Gazda, mishto dia duma."

⁴⁰Uye havana kuzoshinga kumubvunzazve chinhu.

⁴⁰Ai chi mai tromanas te mai phushen les kanch.

⁴¹Zvino wakati kwavari: Vanoreva sei kuti Kristu Mwanakomana waDavhidhi?

⁴¹O Jesus phendia lenge, "Sar mothon ke O Kristo si Shav le Davidosko?

⁴²Nekuti Dhavhidhi pachake wakareva mubhuku reMapisarema achiti: Ishe wakati kuna Ishe wangu: Gara kuruoko rwangu rwerudyi,

⁴²Ke o David phendia ande Vorba le Devleski (Psalms), "O Del phendia murhe Devleske: Besh tele pa murhi chachi rik,

⁴³kusvikira ndaita vavengi vako chitsiko chetsoka dzako.

⁴³zhi kai kerav anda che duzhmaia iek than te hodinis che punrhe pa lende."

⁴⁴Naizvozvo Dhavhidhi unomuidza Ishe, ko Mwanakomana wake sei?

⁴⁴O David akhardia les Devla, sar sai avel vo lesko shav?"

⁴⁵Zvino vanhu vose vachakateerera, wakati kuvadzidzi vake:

⁴⁵Sar sa o narodo ashunelas leste, O Jesus phendia peske disiplonge.

⁴⁶Chenjerai vanyori, vanoda kufamba nenguvo refu, uye vanoda kwaziso pamisika, nezvigaro zvepamusorosa mumasinagoge, nezvigaro zvemberi pazvirairo;

⁴⁶Arakhen tume katar le Gramnoturia, kai si lenge drago te phiravenpe andel rhochi lunzhe, ai den le manush lasho dies pel droma, ai roden la mai lashe skamina ande synagogue, ai drago lenge te beshen ka shero la skafidiako kal pachiva.

⁴⁷vanodya dzimba dzechirikadzi, vanonyepedzera nekuita minyengetero mirefu; ivavo vachagamuchira kurashwa kukuru.

⁴⁷Ke tume xan le phivliange khera, ai rhugin tume lungo rhugimos te miazol ke lashe san: anda kodia si te perel mai phari kris pe tumende."
