Yohaana Mu̱bati̱zi̱ Naatebeerya Bantu
(Mari̱ko 1:1-8; Lu̱u̱ka 3:1-18; Yohaana 1:19-28)
1 Hei̱nyu̱ma gya kasu̱mi̱ kanene, hei̱zi̱ri̱ mudulu gi̱beetengi̱ Yohaana Mu̱bati̱zi̱, yaatandika ku̱tebeerya bantu mwirungu lya B̯uyudaaya, 2 naakoba, “Mwezi̱remwo bibiibi byenyu̱, hab̯wakubba b̯ukama b̯wa mwiguru b̯uli heehi̱ kudwa.”
3 Yohaana Mu̱bati̱zi̱ yooyo wa mu̱ragu̱ri̱ wa Ruhanga I̱saaya gi̱yaakobi̱ri̱ho yati:
“Iraka lya yogwo akwamiira mwirungu naakoba,
‘Mu̱teekani̱ze muhanda gwa Mukama,
mu̱terekereerye b̯uhanda b̯wamwe.’ ”3:3 I̱saaya 40:3
4 Yohaana yogwo yaalwalengi̱ kilwalu kikore kuruga mu byoza bya ngamira, naalwala muheeku gwa kikuta mu mancwendu. Bidyo byamwe byali nzi̱ge na b̯uhooki b̯wa mwirungu. 5 Bantu baaru̱gengi̱ Yeru̱salemu̱ na mu bicweka bi̱si̱geeri̱ho bya B̯uyudaaya gyensei̱, na mu bicweka bi̱hereeri̱ mugira gwa Yorodaani, ni̱bei̱za hali yo. 6 Baatu̱lengi̱ bibii byab̯u, nibabatizib̯wa mu mugira gwa Yorodaani.
7 Bei̱tu̱ Yohaana b̯u̱yaaweeni̱ Bafalisaayo na Basadukaayo banene ni̱bakwi̱za kubatizib̯wa, yaabaweera, “Nywe baana ba mpiri! Naani abahab̯wi̱ri̱ kwi̱ru̱ka ki̱ni̱ga kya Ruhanga, ki̱kyo kikugyenda kwi̱za? 8 Mu̱kore bintu bi̱kwolokya nti, mwezi̱ri̱ri̱mwo ngesu zeenyu̱ zibiibi. 9 Kandi mu̱leke kwehaariiza nimuteekereza nti, ‘Tuli kurungi, hab̯wakubba tuli beizukulu bʼI̱bbu̱rahi̱mu̱.’ Nkubaweera, Ruhanga akusobora kuhindula mahi̱ga gaga, naagafoora beizukulu bʼI̱bbu̱rahi̱mu̱. 10 Kandi ateeri̱ mpasa gyamwe heikolo lya musaali; musaali gwensei̱ gutakwana byana birungi, gu̱kwi̱za kutemwa gukasukwe mu mworo.
11 “Gya nkubabatiza na meezi̱, kwolokya nti mwezi̱ri̱ri̱mwo bibii byenyu̱; bei̱tu̱ yogwo akwi̱za kwei̱nyu̱ma lyange, akunkira mu kubba na b̯u̱sobozi̱, tinkusemeera kumukwatira nkei̱to zaamwe. Yogwo akwi̱za, alibabatiza na Mwozo Mu̱syanu̱ na mworo.*3:11 Haha Bbai̱bbu̱li̱ zindi zi̱koresya Tinkusemeera kumukwatira nkei̱to zaamwe. 12 Akweti̱ lugali lwamwe, asobore kuhuuhuula b̯u̱roi̱. Akwi̱za kusorooza b̯u̱roi̱ b̯wamwe, naab̯ubiika mu kideeru, bei̱tu̱ bisusunga akwi̱za ku̱byokya na mworo gutamalikaho.”
Yohaana Naabatiza Yesu̱
(Mari̱ko 1:9-11; Lu̱u̱ka 3:21-22)
13 Yesu̱ yaaru̱gi̱ri̱ Galilaaya, yaagyenda mu mugira gwa Yorodaani, aleke Yohaana amubatize. 14 Bei̱tu̱ Yohaana yendeerye kumusuulukiira, yaaweera Yesu̱, “Weewe okusemeera kumbatiza; hati̱ kandi, oi̱zi̱ri̱ hali gya?”
15 Bei̱tu̱ Yesu̱ yaamwi̱ri̱ri̱mwo naakoba, “Hataati̱, we ikiriza kwokwo kibbe, aleke tu̱doosereerye bintu byensei̱ bya Ruhanga byaku̱twendeerya.” Mwomwo Yohaana, yeikiriza kubatiza Yesu̱.
16 Yesu̱ b̯u̱yaakamaari̱ kubatizib̯wa, yaaruga mu meezi̱. Mu kasu̱mi̱ kakwo iguru lyaki̱ngu̱li̱i̱rwe, yaawona Mwozo wa Ruhanga naaku̱si̱ri̱mu̱ka nka kolome, yaamwi̱cyaho. 17 Mwomwo iraka lyaruga mwiguru nilikoba, “Yogwo yooyo Mwana wange gi̱nyendya, yooyo ampa kusemererwa mu mutima gwange.”
