“Iraka lya yogwo akwamiira mwirungu naakoba:
‘Mu̱teekani̱ze muhanda gwa Mukama,

5 Bihanga byensei̱, bilibbumbwa,

6 Mwomwo, bantu bensei̱

7 Yohaana yaaweereeri̱ bantu banene banyakubba ni̱bakwi̱za hali yo ababatize, “Nywe baana ba mpiri! Naani abahab̯wi̱ri̱ kwi̱ru̱ka ki̱ni̱ga kya Ruhanga ki̱kyo kikugyenda kwi̱za? 8 Mu̱kore bintu bi̱kwolokya nti mwezi̱ri̱ri̱mwo ngesu zeenyu̱ zibiibi. Kandi mu̱leke kwehaariiza nimukoba nti, ‘Tuli kurungi hab̯wakubba tuli beizukulu bʼI̱bbu̱rahi̱mu̱.’ Nkubaweera, Ruhanga akusobora kuhindula mahi̱ga gaga naagafoora beizukulu bʼI̱bbu̱rahi̱mu̱! 9 Kandi ateeri̱ mpasa gyamwe heikolo lya musaali; musaali gwensei̱ gutakwana byana birungi gu̱kwi̱za kutemwa gukasukwe mu mworo.”
10 Bantu baamu̱b̯u̱u̱lya, “Kale nu, tukole ki?” 11 Yohaana yaabei̱ri̱ri̱mwo yati, “Yogwo ali na byakulwala bibiri, ahe muntu atali na kyakulwala; kandi de yogwo ali na byakudya ahe bab̯wo batali na byakudya.” 12 Hei̱nyu̱ma, basorooza musolo bei̱zi̱ri̱ hali Yohaana ababatize, baamu̱b̯u̱u̱lya, “Mu̱handu̱, hati̱ twe tukole ki?” 13 Yohaana yaabei̱ri̱ri̱mwo, “Mu̱lekere hahwo kutoolaho bantu musolo, gu̱batabagereki̱ri̱.” 14 Kandi na basurukali nabo bei̱zi̱ri̱ hali Yohaana baamu̱b̯u̱u̱lya, “Twe kandi? Tukole teetei̱?” Yohaana yaabei̱ri̱ri̱mwo naakoba, “Mu̱leke kunyaga, kandi de mu̱lekere hahwo kuhangiira bantu batali na misangu. Mu̱teegomba bintu bikukira ha mpeera gyenyu̱, bei̱tu̱ mpeera gyenyu̱ gibamalenge.” 15 Hei̱nyu̱ma gya Yohaana kubatebeerye, bantu bei̱ceeri̱ nibali na kyeni̱hi̱zo kyamaani hoi̱ nibateekereezanga, rundi Yohaana, yaakubba Ku̱ri̱si̱to,*3:15 Kigambu Ku̱ri̱si̱to kyokyo kigambu ki̱mwei̱ na Masi̱ya bi̱manyi̱sya Mutongoole wa Ruhanga. Mutongoole wa Ruhanga. 16 Nahab̯waki̱kyo Yohaana yaabei̱ri̱ri̱mwo bensei̱, “Gya nkubabatiza na meezi̱, bei̱tu̱ hali̱yo akwi̱za akunkira mu kubba na b̯u̱sobozi̱. Gya tinkusemeera kwahula b̯uguha b̯wa nkei̱to zaamwe. Yogwo akwi̱za, alibabatiza na Mwozo Mu̱syanu̱ na mworo. 17 Akweti̱ lugali lwamwe asobore kuhuuhuula b̯u̱roi̱, kandi akwi̱za kusorooza b̯u̱roi̱ b̯wamwe b̯uyaabiika mu kideeru, bei̱tu̱ bisusunga akwi̱za ku̱byokya na mworo gutamalikaho.”
18 Kandi Yohaana yaalengi̱ri̱ho mi̱li̱ngo minene kulamba bantu na ku̱batebya makuru garungi. 19 Bei̱tu̱, hei̱nyu̱ma gya Yohaana kukorokota Herodi̱, munyakubba mu̱lemi̱ weisaza lya Galilaaya hab̯wa kutunga muka waab̯u, Herodi̱yaasi̱, na hab̯wa bibiibi bye bindi biyaalingi akoori̱, 20 Herodi̱ yaamu̱teeri̱ mu nkomo, kiki kyabba kibii kinyamaani kikukiraho kiyaali akoori̱.

21 Bantu bensei̱ b̯ubaali nibakubatizib̯wa, hooho na Yesu̱ de yaabati̱zi̱i̱rwe. Kandi b̯uyaali naakusaba, iguru lyaki̱ngu̱li̱i̱rwe, 22 na Mwozo wa Ruhanga yaamu̱si̱ri̱mu̱kaho nka kolome, yaamwi̱cyaho. Mwomwo Iraka lyaruga mwiguru nilikoba, “Weewe mwana wange gi̱nyendya; weewe yogwo ampa kusemererwa mu mutima gwange.”
