Yohana Mbatizaji kowapetela wanhu
(Matayo 3:1-12; Maluko 1:1-8; Yohana 1:19-28)
1Mwaka wa longo na tano muundewa wa mndewa wa Lumi yakemigwe Tibelio, Pontio Pilato kakala mkulu wa isi ya Yudea, na Helode kakala mkulu wa isi ya Galilaya, na Filipo mdodo wake kakala mkulu wa Itulea na isi ya Tulakoniti, na Lusania kakala mkulu wa isi ya Abilene, 2Anasi na Kayafa wakala wakulu wa walava nhosa. Kipindi acho mbuli ya Imulungu imwizila Yohana mwanage Zakalia ako kuluwala 3Yohana kachola mziisi zose zili mmabehi na lwanda lwa Yolidani, kawapetela wanhu, “Lekeni nzambi na mbatizigwe na Imulungu kozigela kumgongo nzambi zenu.”
4Kamba viyandikigwe mna ikitabu cha mtula ndagu wa Imulungu Isaya,
“Munhu kokema kuluwala,
‘Itandeni nzila ya Mndewa,
goloseni nzila yonda yabite!
5Kila konde dimemezigwe,
kila kisugulu na kigongo visegesigwe,
nzila hazigoloke zigolosigwe,
na nzila zihile zotendigwa goya.
6Wanhu wose okona Imulungu kowakombola wanhu!’ ”
7Lunhu lwa wanhu lumcholela Yohana yawabatize. Yohana kawalongela, “Mweye mizoka! Nani yawalongele modaha kuikimbila nhaguso yonda igaligwe na Imulungu? 8Musang'hane gaja gonda galaguse muzileka nzambi zenu. Sikumuilongele, ‘Abulahamu ayo muhenga wetu.’ Nowalongela, Imulungu kodaha kugasola mabwe gano na kugatenda lukolo lwa Abulahamu! 9Shoka ikigwa goya kukanha mibiki mna gamasina. Kila biki hadilela matunda ganogile dokanhigwa na kwasigwa muumoto.”
10Lunhu lwa wanhu lumuuza Yohana, “Avo tutende choni?”
11Yohana kawedika, “Munhu yoyose yeli na viwalo vibili yamgwee kimoja miyage yelibule, na ija yeli na ndiya yatende vivo.”
12Wabokela kodi nao weza kubatizigwa. Wamuuza Yohana, “Mfundiza, siye tutende choni?”
13Nayo kawalongela, “Sikumubokele kodi kubanza vija vimulagizigwe.”
14Wakalizi nao wamuuza, “Na siye tutende choni?”
Nayo kawalongela, “Sikumumboke munhu yoyose sente yake hebu sikumumtaguse munhu yoyose kwa uvizi. Mutosheke na kija kimubokela.”
15Wanhu wakala obetela kwiza kwa Mkombola, avo wasonga kuiuza mmizoyo yao kamba Yohana kodaha kuwa ayo Kilisito Mkombola. 16Yohana kawalongela wose, “Niye nowabatiza mweye kwa mazi, lakini kokwiza ija yeli munhu mkulu ng'hani kubanza niye. Niye sifaya hata kudohola nzabi za vilatu vake. Ayo kowabatiza kwa Loho Yang'alile na moto. 17Ayo kana lungo mmakono gake lwa kubetela uhule wake. Kowika uhemba kukanho, lakini koisoma imikumvi muumoto haufaga.”
18Kwa mbuli nyingi Yohana kawapetela wanhu Mbuli Inogile na kawalonda waleke nzambi zao. 19Lakini Yohana kamkomhokela mndewa Helode, mkulu wa isi ya Galilaya kwavija kamsola Helodiya, mwehe wa mdodo wake, na katenda nzambi nyingi. 20Abaho Helode katenda dihile ng'hani kwa kumgodeka Yohana mkifungo.
Yesu kobatizigwa

21Wanhu wose viwakalile obatizigwa, Yesu nayo kabatizigwa. Viyakalile kompula Imulungu, ulanga ugubuka, 22na Loho Yang'alile kamuhulumukila mna ulukuli luigalile na huwa. Sauti ihulikigwa kulawa kuulanga, “Gweye kwa Mwanangu nikunogele. Ninogelwa na gweye.”
