⁹Jesu wakati anzwa zvinhu izvi, akashamisika naye, akatendeuka, akati kuchaunga chaimutevera: Ndinoti kwamuri: Handina kuwana rutendo rukuru rwakadai kunyange pakati paIsraeri.

⁹Kana O Jesus ashundia kadala vorbi, chudisailo ai boldinisailo karing o narodo kai lelas pala leste, ai phendia, "Me mothav tumenge, chi anda Israel chi arakhlem kasavestar pachamos,"

¹⁰Zvino avo vakange vatumwa vodzokera kumba vakawana muranda airwara agwinya.

¹⁸Le Iovanoske disipluria phende leske pa kadala dieli.

¹⁹Johwani akadanira kwaari vamwe vaviri vevadzidzi vake, akavatuma kuna Jesu achiti: Imwi ndimwi munouya here, kana tichakataririra umwe?

¹⁹O Iovano akhardia duien andal slugi ai tradia le karing O Jesus, te phushen lestar, "Tu san kodo kai trobulas te avel, vai trobul te azhukeras avres?"

²⁰Zvino varume vakati vasvika kwaari, vakati: Johwani Mubhabhatidzi watituma kwamuri achiti: Ndimwi unouya here, kana titaririre umwe?

²⁰Kana aresle ka Jesus, phende, "O Iovano o baptisto tradia amen karing tute, te mothos, "Tu san kodo kai trobul te avel, vai trobul te azhukeras avres?"

²¹Zvino munguva iyoyo akaporesa vazhinji pazvifo neurwere, nepamweya yakaipa; nekumapofu mazhinji akapa kuona.

²¹Ande kadia vriama O Jesus sastiardia bute manushen kai sas naswale, bange, kodola kai sas beng ande lende, ai phuterdia le iakha bute korhen.

²²Zvino Jesu achipindura akati kwavari: Endai mundoudza Johwani zvamakaona nezvamakanzwa; zvekuti, mapofu anoonazve, vanokamhina vanofamba, vane maperembudzi vanonatsva, matsi dzinonzwa, vakafa vanomutswa, varombo vanoparidzirwa evhangeri.

²²O Jesus dia atweto ka le Iovanoske disipluria, "Zhan palpale! Mothon le Iovanoske so dikhlian ai so ashundian! Le korhe dikhen, le bange phiren, le lepra vuzhile, le kashuke ashunen, le mule vushten, e lashi viasta si phendi le chorhe manushenge.

²³Uye wakaropfadzwa ani nani usingagumbuswi neni.

²⁴Zvino vatumwa vaJohwani vakati vabva, wakatanga kutaura kuzvaunga pamusoro paJohwani, achiti: Makabudira kurenje kunoonei? Rutsanga runozununguswa nemhepo here?

²⁴Kana kodola kai tradia sas o Iovano geletar, O Jesus phendia le narodoske pai Iovano, "So gelian tume te dikhen ande pusta? Iek sulum kai mishtil katar e barval?

²⁵Asi makange mabuda kunoonei? Munhu wakapfeka nguvo dzakapfava here? Tarirai, vari munguvo dzinobwinya, vachirarama zvakanaka, vari mudzimba dzamadzimambo.

²⁵Numa so gelian te dikhen? Iek manush kai si vuriardo ande shukar tsalia? Eta, kodola kai si le shukar tsalia, ai kai traiin ando mishtimos, kodola traiin andel khera le amperatonge!

²⁶Asi makange mabuda kunoonei? Muporofita here? Hongu, ndinoti kwamuri: Kunyange unopfuura zvikuru muporofita.

²⁶So gelian tume te dikhen? Iek profeto? E, me phenav tumenge, dikhliam mai but sar iek profeto.

²⁷Uyu ndiye wakanyorwa pamusoro pake, zvichinzi: Tarira, ini ndinotuma mutumwa wangu pamberi pechiso chako, uchagadzira nzira yako pamberi pako.

²⁷O Iovano si kodo kai si ramome, "Eta, tradav murha sluga kai anel e viasta angle tute, te lasharel o drom angla tute."

²⁸Nekuti ndinoti kwamuri: Pakati pevakaberekwa nevakadzi, hakuna muporofita mukuru kuna Johwani Mubhabhatidzi; asi mudukusa muushe hwaMwari mukuru kwaari.

²⁸Me phenav tumenge, "Mashkar kodole kai arakhadile katar e zhuvli nai mai bare de sar o Iovano o baptisto, inker o mai tsinorho ando rhaio le Devlesko mai baro lestar."

²⁹Zvino vanhu vose vakati vachizvinzwa, nevateresi vakati Mwari wakarurama, zvavakange vabhabhatidzwa norubhabhatidzo rwaJohwani.

²⁹Ai sa o narodo kai ashundia les, ai vi le manush kai chiden e taksa, phende ke vorta so phenel O Del, ai mekle te bolel o Iovano.

³⁰Asi vaFarisi nenyanzvi dzemutemo vakaramba zano raMwari vachizvipikisa, vakasabhabhatidzwa naye.

³⁰Numa le Farizeanuria ai le ablokatura chi bolenas pe lestar, phende ke nas vorta so mothol O Del.

³¹Asi Ishe akati: Zvino vanhu vezera iri ndichavafananidza nei? Vakafanana nei?

³¹"No pala kaste malaven kadala manush kadala vriamake, ai pe kaste miazon.

³²Vakafanana nevana vaduku vagere pamisika vachidanidzirana vachiti: Takakuridzirai nyere asi hamuna kutamba, takakuririrai asi hamuna kuchema.

³²Won miazon sar glate kai beshen ando bazari, ai kai den duma iek kavresa ai mothon, 'Jilabadiam ande tuturaza, ai tume chi kheldian ai jilabadian jilia miloso ai tume chi ruian.'

³³Nekuti Johwani Mubhabhatidzi wakauya asingadyi chingwa kana kumwa waini, zvino moti: Une dhimoni;

³⁴O Shav le Manushesko avilo, ai xalas ai pelas; ai tume phende, "Dikh, kado manush xal but ai pel but, ek vortakolo le manushensa kai chiden e taksa ai le bezexalensa!"

³⁵Asi uchenjeri hwunonzi hwakarurama nevana vake vose.

³⁶Zvino umwe wevaFarisi wakamukumbira kuti adye naye; akapinda mumba momuFarisi, akagara pakudya.

³⁶Iek Farisi mangliape katar O Jesus te xal lesa. O Jesus gelo ando kher le manushengo ai thodiape kai skafidi te xal.

³⁷Zvino tarira, mukadzi muguta iro, waiva mutadzi, wakati aziva kuti ugere pakudya mumba momuFarisi, akauya nechinu chearibhasiteri chechizoro.

³⁷Sas iek zhuvli bezexali kai sas ando gav, kana ashundia ke O Jesus sas pa e skafidi ando kher le Farizeanongo, andini iek botela pherdo duxi.

³⁸Akamira patsoka dzake mushure make achichema, akatanga kunyorovesa tsoka dzake nemisodzi, akapusika nevhudzi remusoro wake, ndokutsvoda tsoka dzake ndokudzizodza nechizoro.

³⁹Zvino muFarisi wakange amudana wakati achizviona, akataura mukati make, achiti: Uyu dai aiva muporofita, ungadai aiziva kuti ndiani, uye ndewakadini mukadzi unomubata, nekuti mutadzi.

³⁹O Farisi kai akhardiasas le Jesusos ando pesko kher ai dikhlia so kerdilia, motholas ande peste, "Kado manush te avilino profeto, zhanglino so si kodia zhuvli kai azbal les; wo zhanglino ke bezexalila."

⁴⁰Jesu ndokupindura akati kwaari: Simoni, ndine chekutaura kwauri. Iye ndokuti: Mudzidzisi, revai.

⁴⁰O Jesus phendia leske, "Simon, si ma vari so te mothav tuke." O Simon phendia, "De duma, Gazda."

⁴¹Kwakange kune vakwereti vaviri kune umwe mukweretesi; umwe wakange ane chikwereti chamadhenari* anamazana mashanu, uye umwe makumi mashanu.

⁴²Sar nas le love te pochinen, wo chi mai manglia peske love lendar. No O Jesus phushel, "Savo andal dui avela lenge drago kodo manush?"

⁴³Simoni akapindura akati: Ndinofunga ndouyo waakakangamwira kupfuura umwe. Akati kwaari: Watonga zvakarurama.

⁴³O Simon dia atweto, "Me gindiv ke kuko kai diasas les mai but." O Jesus phendia leske, "Vorta phendian."

⁴⁴Zvino akatendeukira kumukadzi, akati kuna Simoni: Unoona mukadzi uyu here? Ndapinda mumba mako, mvura yetsoka dzangu hauna kundipa; asi uyu wanyorevesa tsoka dzangu nemisodzi, akapusika nevhudzi remusoro wake.

⁴⁴Porme dikhlia pe zhuvli, ai phendia le Simonoske, "Dikhes kacha zhuvli? Avilem ande cho kher; ai chi dian ma vov si pai te xalavel murhe punrhe numa woi chindiatar le peske asuensa ai koslia le balensa.

⁴⁵Hauna kunditsvoda, asi iye chinguri chandapinda, haana kumira kutsvoda tsoka dzangu.

⁵⁰Akati kumukadzi: Rutendo rwako rwakuponesa; enda nerugare.

⁵⁰Numa O Jesus phendia la zhuvliake, "Cho pachamos skepisardia tu, zha pachasa."
