¹Pamazuva iwayo kwakauya Johwani Mubhabhatidzi, achiparidza murenje reJudhiya,

¹Maalmahaas waxaa yimid Yooxanaa Baabtiisaha isagoo cidlada Yahuudiya wax ku wacdiyaya, oo leh,

²achiti: Tendeukai; nekuti ushe hwematenga hwaswedera.

²Toobad keena, waayo, boqortooyadii jannadu waa dhow dahay.

³Nekuti uyu ndiye wakarehwa nezvake naIsaya muporofita, achiti: Inzwi reanodanidzira murenje: Gadzirirai mugwagwa waIshe, ruramisai nzira dzake.

³Waayo, kan waa kii nebi Isayos ka hadlay kolkuu yidhi, Waa codka kan cidlada kaga qaylinaya, Jidka Rabbiga hagaajiya, Waddooyinkiisa toosiya.

⁴Iyezve Johwani waiva nechipfeko chake chemakushe ekamera nebhanhire rechikumba rakapoteredza chiuno chake; nechikafu chake chaiva mhashu neuchi hwedondo.

⁴Yooxanaa qudhiisu wuxuu guntanaa dharkiisii dhogorta geel ahaa, oo suun meged ahna dhexduu ku xidhnaa, cuntadiisuna waxay ahayd ayax iyo malab dibadeed.

⁵Zvino kwakabudira kwaari Jerusarema neJudhiya rose nedunhu rose rakapoteredza Joridhani;

⁵Markaas waxaa u soo baxay dadka Yeruusaalem, iyo kuwa Yahuudiya oo dhan iyo kuwa dalka Urdun ku wareegsan oo dhan,

⁶vakabhabhatidzwa naye muna Joridhani vachireurura zvivi zvavo.

⁶markaasuu Webi Urdun ku baabtiisay iyagoo dembiyadooda qiranaya.

⁷Asi wakati achiona vazhinji vevaFarisi nevaSadhusi vachiuya kurubhabhatidzo rwake akati kwavari: Zvizvarwa zvenyoka, ndiani wakakutaridzirai kuti mutize hasha dzinouya?

⁷Laakiin goortuu arkay qaar badan oo Farrisiin iyo Sadukiin ah oo baabtiiskiisa yimid wuxuu ku yidhi, Dhal jilbisay, yaa idiinka digay inaad ka carartaan cadhada imanaysa?

⁸Naizvozvo berekai zvibereko zvakafanira kutendeuka.

⁸Haddaba midho toobad istaahila soo bixiya,

⁹Musafunga kutaura mukati menyu muchiti: Tina Abhurahamu anova baba; nekuti ndinoti kwamuri: Mwari anokwanisa kubva pamabwe awa kumutsira Abhurahamu vana.

⁹hana ku fikirina inaad tidhaahdaan, Waxaannu leennahay Ibraahim oo aabbe noo ah. Waayo, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Ilaah waa karaa inuu dhagaxyadan carruur uga kiciyo Ibraahim.

¹⁰Uye sanhuwo ratoiswa pamudzi wemiti, naizvozvo muti umwe neumwe usingabereki zvibereko zvakanaka unotemwa ugokandirwa mumoto.

¹⁰Haddeer weliba faaska waxaa la dhigay geedaha guntooda. Sidaa darteed geed walba oo aan midho wanaagsan soo bixin waa la gooyaa oo dabkaa lagu tuuraa.

¹¹Ini zvirokwazvo ndinokubhabhatidzai nemvura mupinde mukutendeuka; asi uyo anouya shure kwangu ane simba kupfuura ini, wandisina kufanira kutakura shangu dzake; iye uchakubhabhatidzai neMweya Mutsvene nemoto.

¹¹Anigu biyo ayaan idinku baabtiisaa ilaa toobadda, laakiin kan iga daba imanayaa waa iga itaal weyn yahay, kan aanan istaahilin inaan kabihiisa u qaado. Isagu wuxuu idinku baabtiisi doonaa Ruuxa Quduuska ah iyo dab.

¹²Une rusero rwuri muruoko rwake, uchachenesa buriro rake kwazvo, agounganidzira zviyo zvake mudura, asi hundi uchaipisa nemoto usingadzimiki.

¹²Masaftiisu gacantiisay ku jirtaa, goobta wax lagu tumona aad buu u safayn doonaa, oo sarreenkiisa ayuu maqsinka ku soo ururin doonaa, laakiin buunshaha ayuu dab aan damayn ku gubi doonaa.

¹³Ipapo Jesu wakabva Garirea akasvika paJoridhani kuna Johwani, kuti abhabhatidzwe naye.

¹³Markaasaa Ciise Galili ka yimid oo Webi Urdun ugu tegey Yooxanaa inuu baabtiiso.

¹⁴Asi Johwani wakamurambidza achiti: Ini kunodikamwa kuti ndibhabhatidzwa nemwi, asi imwi mouya kwandiri?

¹⁴Yooxanaase waa diiday, isagoo leh, Anaa u baahan inaad i baabtiisto, adiguna miyaad ii timid?

¹⁵Asi Jesu achipindura wakati kwaari: Tenda ikozvino, nekuti saizvozvo zvakatifanira kuti tizadzise kururama kose. Ipapo akamutendera.

¹⁵Laakiin Ciise waa u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Haddeer oggolow, waayo, sidaas waa inoo eg tahay inaynu xaqnimada oo dhan wada yeelno; markaasuu u oggolaaday.

¹⁶Asi Jesu, wakati abhabhatidzwa, akakwira pakarepo achibva mumvura; zvino tarira, matenga akamuzarukira, akaona Mweya waMwari achiburuka senjiva, achiuya pamusoro pake.

¹⁶Ciise goortii la baabtiisay, ayuu markiiba biyaha kor uga baxay, kolkaasaa samooyinku furmeen, oo wuxuu arkay Ruuxa Ilaah oo sida qoolley oo kale u soo degaya oo dushiisa imanaya,oo cod baa samooyinka ka lahaa, Kanu waa Wiilkayga aan jeclahay, oo aan ku faraxsanahay.

¹⁷Zvino tarira, inzwi richibva kumatenga richiti: Uyu ndiye Mwanakomana wangu anodikamwa, wandinofara naye kwazvo.

¹⁷oo cod baa samooyinka ka lahaa, Kanu waa Wiilkayga aan jeclahay, oo aan ku faraxsanahay.
