Ndimapereka moyo wanga chifukwa cha nkhosa. 16 Ine ndili ndi nkhosa zina zimene sizili za gulu ili. Ine ndiyenera kuzibweretsanso. Izonso zidzamvera mawu anga, ndipo zidzakhala gulu limodzi ndi mʼbusa mmodzi. 17 Nʼchifukwa chake Atate anga amandikonda, popeza Ine ndikupereka moyo wanga kuti ndiwutengenso. 18 Palibe amene angawuchotse mwa Ine, koma ndikuwupereka mwakufuna kwanga. Ine ndili ndi ulamuliro wa kuwupereka ndi ulamuliro wakuwutenganso. Lamulo ili ndinalandira kwa Atate anga.”

22 Ku Yerusalemu kunali chikondwerero chokumbukira kupatulidwa kwa Nyumba ya Mulungu. Inali nthawi yozizira, 23 ndipo Yesu ankayenda mʼbwalo la Nyumbayo ku malo a Solomoni. 24 Ayuda anamuzungulira Iye akunena kuti, “Kodi iwe udzazunguza malingaliro athu mpaka liti? Ngati iwe ndi Khristu, tiwuze momveka.”
25 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Ine ndimakuwuzani, koma inu simukhulupirira. Ntchito zimene ndikuchita mʼdzina la Atate anga zikundichitira umboni, 26 koma inu simukhulupirira chifukwa simuli a gulu lankhosa zanga. 27 Nkhosa zanga zimamva mawu anga, Ine ndimazidziwa, ndipo zimanditsata Ine. 28 Ine ndimazipatsa moyo wosatha ndipo sizidzawonongeka. Palibe amene adzazikwatula mʼdzanja langa. 29 Atate anga, amene anandipatsa Ine, ndi akulu kuposa onse. Palibe amene angazikwatule mʼdzanja la Atate anga. 30 Ine ndi Atate ndife amodzi.”
31 Ayuda anatolanso miyala kuti amugende Iye, 32 koma Yesu anawawuza kuti, “Ine ndakuonetsani zinthu zambiri zabwino zodabwitsa kuchokera kwa Atate. Nʼchifukwa chiti mwa izi chimene mukundigendera?”
33 Ayuda anayankha kuti, “Ife sitikukugenda chifukwa cha izi, koma popeza ukunyoza Mulungu, chifukwa iwe, munthu wamba, ukuti ndiwe Mulungu.”
34 Yesu anawayankha kuti, “Kodi sizinalembedwa mʼmalamulo anu kuti, ‘Ine ndanena kuti ndinu milungu?’ 35 Ngati anawatcha milungu anthu amene analandira mawu a Mulungu, pajatu Malemba sangasweke, 36 nanga bwanji uyu amene Atate anamuyika padera monga wake weniweni ndi kumutuma ku dziko lapansi? Nanga ndi chifukwa chiyani mukundinena Ine kuti ndikuchita chipongwe? Kodi nʼchifukwa choti ndanena kuti, ‘Ine ndine Mwana wa Mulungu?’ 37 Musandikhulupirire Ine ngati sindichita ntchito za Atate anga. 38 Koma ngati Ine ndikuchita zimenezi, ngakhale kuti simundikhulupirira, khulupirirani ntchito zodabwitsazo, ndipo mudziwe ndi kuzindikira kuti Atate ali mwa Ine, ndiponso Ine ndili mwa Atate.” 39 Iwo anafuna kumugwiranso koma anawapulumuka mʼmanja mwawo.

Iwo anati, “Ngakhale kuti Yohane sanachite chizindikiro chodabwitsa, zonse zimene Yohane ananena za munthu uyu zinali zoona.” 42 Ndipo pamalo amenewo ambiri anakhulupirira Yesu.
