1 Bhanholo bhaanɨ mʉ lwɨtɨkho, mʉtakhabhe na bhantʉ abhinji mukaasi yiinyu bhe bhakwanza kʉbha bhamanyizyi abhi zwi lya Mʉlʉngʉ. Ɨnkʉlonga shɨnɨɨsho kʉnongwa ye mumanyile kʉtɨ, pi siku ɨlya kʉlongwa, ʉMʉlʉngʉ akhayɨtʉlonga nhaani ɨtwe tubhamanyizyi kʉshɨla abhanjɨ. 2 Ɨtwe twenti tʉkʉbhomba imbiibhi kʉ madala aga vɨkholo ivwinji. Ɨnga alɨɨpo umuntu we atakʉbhomba imbiibhi mu ziila zye akʉlonga, wʉnʉʉyo akʉkhondela nalyoli, amanyile kuyidinda ʉmʉbhɨlɨ waakwe wonti.
3 Yeenya, ifalaasi* tukuzibijila kwɨ dala ɨlya kʉbhɨɨkha kwi lomu lyabho ɨshɨjela ishinsi, ɨnga zitutinikhaje, khabhɨlɨ tʉlongozyaje amabhɨlɨ gaabho gonti. 4 Zyope imeeli, poope she mpɨtɨ nhaani, zikubunshilwa ni mpepu ɨmpɨtɨ. Ɨleelo zɨkʉlongolwa nɨ shɨbaabho ishinsi bhʉʉlo, kʉbhala kwonti kwe umulongozi ayiganile. 5 She shɨnɨɨsho nu lumili, she poope khantʉ khansi akha mʉbhɨlɨ, abhantʉ bhakʉlonga ɨmpɨtɨ ɨzya kʉyɨbaada.
Mʉsɨɨbhe she ʉmwoto umunsi wʉkʉpemba ɨsengo ɨpɨtɨ! 6 Ulumili lwope lʉlɨ ngatɨ mwoto. Ulumili mpaaswa yeeka mʉ mpaaswa zyonti ɨzya mʉbhɨlɨ lwe lwizuuye imbiibhi ɨzya shɨkholo nɨ shɨkholo. Khabhɨlɨ lʉlɨ na makha aga wunanganyi, lʉkʉbhɨɨkha uwukhandamanu ʉmʉbhɨlɨ wonti. Khabhɨlɨ ulumili lʉlɨ ngatɨ mwoto we wʉkʉmwosha umuntu na kʉmʉnanganya mʉ wɨɨkhalo waakwe wonti, we wʉlɨ ngatɨ mwoto kufuma kwa Seetani.

Ʉlwene lʉlɨ nu wubhiibhi we wutakudindikha, khabhɨlɨ lʉkʉnanganya abhantʉ anzɨ nsalɨle ɨyɨ njokha.
9 Kwɨ dala ɨlya lumili tʉkʉmʉpaala ʉTaata, ʉMwene wɨɨtʉ ʉMʉlʉngʉ. Khabhɨlɨ kwɨ dala ɨlya lumili lʉnʉʉlwo tukubhaliga abhantʉ, bhe ʉMʉlʉngʉ abhapelile kʉ shɨkholanyo shaakwe. 10 Mʉnʉʉmwo mwi lomu lyeka, mwe gakufuma amazwi aga kʉpaala, na ga kuguna. Bhanholo bhaanɨ mʉ lwɨtɨkho, ganaago gatakwanzɨwa kʉbha shɨnɨɨsho! 11 Yeenya, shɨtalɨɨpo ishindingwi she shikufumwa aminzi amanonu, iwinza shifumwe mʉmwo aminzi amakhali! 12 Bhanholo bhaanɨ, ikwi ɨkʉyʉ lɨtangeela amatunda aga mazeituni.† Amazabiibu‡ goope shɨnɨɨsho, gatangeela amatunda agɨ kʉyʉ.
