20 Bushiku bumo ilyo alesambilisha abantu mwi tempele no kubila imbila nsuma, intungulushi sha bashimapepo na bakalemba pamo na bakalamba balishile,+ 2 kabili bamwipwishe abati: “Twebe, bushe ni ku maka nshi ucitila ifi fintu, nelyo nani akupeele aya maka?”+ 3 Na o abaswike ati: “Na ine nalamwipushako cimo, munjebe:+ 4 Bushe ulubatisho lwa kwa Yohane lwafumine ku muulu nelyo ku bantu?”+ 5 Na bo balalanshanya abati: “Nga twatila, ‘Ni ku muulu,’ aletila, ‘Nga kanshi cinshi ico tamwamusuminine?’+ 6 Lelo nga twatila, ‘Ni ku bantu,’ abantu bonse baletupoola amabwe,+ pantu basumina ukuti Yohane+ ali ni kasesema.”+ 7 E ico bayaswike abati tabaishibe uko lwafumine. 8 Na o Yesu abebele ati: “Na ine wine nshamwebe amaka ayo ncitilako ifi fintu.”+

9 Awe atendeke ukweba abantu ici cilangililo ati: “Umuntu alimine ibala lya myangashi+ no kuliseekesha ku balimi, kabili aile ku calo cimbi pa nshita iitali.+ 10 Lelo pa nshita iyalinga, atumine umusha+ ku balimi,+ ukuti bamupeele ifisabo fimo ifya mwi bala lya myangashi.+ Lelo abalimi balimupumine no kumubwesha minwe nkutwa.+ 11 Kabili abatumiine umusha na umbi. Na o balimupumine, bamusaalula no kumubwesha iminwe nkutwa.+ 12 Atumine no walenga butatu;+ uyu na o balimucenene no kumutamfya. 13 Awe umwine we bala lya myangashi atile, ‘Ndecita shani? Ndetuma umwana wandi uo natemwa sana.+ Nalimo ena bakamucindika.’ 14 Na balimi ilyo bamumwene fye, balalanshanya abati, ‘Uyu e mpyani; iseni tumwipaye, pa kuti ibala* libe lyesu.’+ 15 Awe bamupoosele ku nse+ ye bala ilya myangashi no kumwipaya.+ Nga kanshi akabacita shani umwine we bala ilya myangashi?+ 16 Akesaonaula balya balimi no kupeela ibala lya myangashi kuli bambi.”+

Awe pa kumfwa ifi, batile: “Nakalya!” 17 Lelo alibaloleshe no kutila: “Nga kanshi calola mwi ici icalembwa ati, ‘Ilibwe ilyo bakakuula bakeene,+ e lyaisaba ilibwe lya pa muulu pa koona’?+ 18 Onse uwaponena pali ili libwe, akafungaika.+ Na onse uo lyaponenapo,+ likamushonaula.”+

19 Bakalemba ne ntungulushi sha bashimapepo nomba balefwaya ukumwikata pa nshita ilya ine, lelo batiinine abantu; pantu bailwike ukuti e bo alelandapo mu cilangililo.+ 20 Kabili pa numa ya kumulolekesha, batumine inengu isho baingishe incito mu bumfisolo ku kuifungushanya kwati bantu abalungama, pa kuti shimwikate+ mu milandile yakwe no kumutwala ku buteko na ku mulashi.+ 21 Awe shamwipwishe, ashiti: “Mwe Kasambilisha, twaishiba ukuti mulanda no kusambilisha ifyalungama kabili tamwaba na kapaatulula iyo, lelo musambilisha inshila ya kwa Lesa mu cine:+ 22 Bushe calisuminishiwa ukuti tulesonka umusonko kuli Kaisare nelyo iyo?”+ 23 Lelo alishibe ubucenjeshi bwabo kabili abepwishe ati:+ 24 “Nangeni denari.* Bushe uyu mutwe uuli apa ne fi balembelepo fya kwa nani?” Na bo batile: “Fya kwa Kaisare.”+ 25 E lyo abebele ati: “Kanshi peeleni ifya kwa Kaisare kuli Kaisare,+ ne fya kwa Lesa kuli Lesa.”+ 26 Awe bafililwe ukumwikata pali aya mashiwi alandile pa menso ya bantu, lelo balipapile pa fyo ayaswike, ica kuti baikele fye tondolo.+

27 Lelo abaSaduke bamo, abatila takwaba ukubuuka kwa bafwa, balishile+ no kumwipusha 28 abati: “Mwe Kasambilisha, Mose+ atulembeele ati, ‘Umuntu uuli no mukashi nga afwa ukwabula ukufyala abana, munyina+ afwile ukubuula umukashi no kumufyalilako abana.’+ 29 Awe kwali aba bwananyina cinelubali (7); no wa ntanshi aupile umwanakashi lelo afwile ukwabula ukufyala abana.+ 30 Awe uwalenga bubili, 31 no walenga butatu na bo balimubuulile aba umukashi wabo. E fyo cali kuli bonse cinelubali (7): tabashile abana, mpaka bonse bapwa ukufwa.+ 32 Pa kulekelesha, umwanakashi na o alifwile.+ 33 E ico, mu kubuuka kwa bafwa, bushe akaba umukashi wa kwa nani pali balya cinelubali (7)? Pantu bonse cinelubali balimuupilepo.”+

34 Yesu atile kuli bena: “Abantu ba muli cino calo baloopa+ no kuupwa, 35 lelo abalinga+ ukubako muli ilya nshita iikesa+ no kubuuka ku bafwa+ bena tabakaleupa nangu kuupwa. 36 Na kuba, tabakalefwa,+ pantu bakaba nga bamalaika, kabili bakaba abana ba kwa Lesa ilyo bakabuuka.*+ 37 Na Mose alilandilepo pa kubuuka kwa bafwa, ilyo alembele pa lwa cimpusa ca myunga,+ ilyo aita Yehova ati ‘Lesa wa kwa Abrahamu kabili Lesa wa kwa Isaki kabili Lesa wa kwa Yakobo.’+ 38 Te Lesa wa bafwa iyo, lelo wa ba mweo, pantu kuli ena bonse ba mweo.”+ 39 E lyo bakalemba bamo batile: “Mwe Kasambilisha, mwalanda bwino.” 40 Awe tabakwete kabili amaka ya kumwipusha icipusho nangu cimo.

41 Na o atile kuli bena: “Nga cinshi basosela abati Kristu mwana wa kwa Davidi?+ 42 Pantu Davidi umwine mwi buuku lya Malumbo atila, ‘Yehova aebele Shikulu ati: “Ikala ku kwa kulyo kwandi 43 mpaka nkalenge abalwani bobe ukuba nga kapuna ka kunyantapo amakasa yobe.”’+ 44 E ico, Davidi, umwine amwita ati, ‘Shikulu’; nomba kuti aba shani umwana wakwe?”

45 Nomba ilyo abantu bonse baleumfwa, atile ku basambi:+ 46 “Cenjeleni kuli bakalemba abatemwa ukwendauka ninshi nabafwala ifya kufwala fya mucinshi no kutemwa ukubaposha ku bantu pa maliketi no kwikala pa fipuna fya ku ntanshi mu masunagoge* ne fya kwikalapo ifyacindama pa mulaalilo,+ 47 no kulya ifyuma fya bamukamfwilwa,+ kabili mu kabepekesho bapepa amapepo ayatali; aba e bo akakanda sana.”+
