1Omu kiseera ekyo, abeegi baabire egiri oYesu, ni bamubuulya bati, “Naani akira ekitiisya omu bwakabaka bwʼomwigulu?”*

2Kale awo oYesu nʼayeta omwana omutomuto, kaisi nʼamukoba okwemerera omu maiso gaabwe. 3Awo nʼabakoba ati, “Mbakobera amazima nti, okutoolaku nga mucuukire ni mwewombeeka ngʼabaana abatobato, neye nga bbe timwalingira naire omu bwakabaka bwʼomwigulu.* 4Kale nʼolwekyo buli muntu eyewombeeka ooti mwana onu, niiye akira ekitiisya omu bwakabaka bwʼomwigulu.”

5OYesu ni yeeyongera ati, “Era buli asangaalira omwana ooti yoonu okulwange, abba asangaaliire ninze. 6Neye singa omuntu yenayena azweraku omoiza oku batobato abo abanjikiririryamu okukola ekibbikibbi, ekikirira kimo kusiba muntu oyo ibbaale erizito omu mamiro, ni bamudyaka omu lwabi lwʼenyanza.”

7Awo oYesu ni yeeyongera okutumula nʼabeegibe ati, “Wobe! Ala abantu bʼoku kyalo nga balabire! Ekyo kityo olwʼebintu ebitendera abantu okukola ekibbikibbi. Kaisi nago era ebintu ebyo biteekwa kubbaawo, neye wobe! Ala omuntu oyo abireeta, ngʼalabire!”

8Era ni yeeyongera ati, “Era singa engaloyo ooba ekigerekyo kikuzweraku okukola ekikole ekibbikibbi, okitemeku era okimume eedi. Kikugasa iwe okusuna obwomi obutawaawo ngʼoli wʼengalo moiza ooba wʼekigere kimo, okukiraku okubba nʼengalo eibiri ooba ebigere ebibiri neye oKibbumba nʼakusindika omu geyeena omuli omusyo ogutalikira.* 9Era abba ngʼeriisolyo niiryo erikuzweraku okukola ekikole ekibbikibbi, olyokolemu era olimume eedi. Kisa okusuna obwomi obutawaawo, ngʼoli wʼeriiso limo, okukiraku okusigalya amaiso gonagona, neye ni bakumuma omu geyeena omuli omusyo ogutalikira.”*

10Awo oYesu nʼabakoba ati, “Mwegendereze okubona muti timubityamu kadi omoiza kwabo abatobato amaiso. Ekyo kityo olwakubba mbakobera nti omwigulu abamalaika baabwe abababbeera, buliijo batuukirira oBbaabba aali omwigulu. [ 11Kaisi era nʼoMwana wa Muntu yaizire kunoonia nʼokulokola baabo ababbaire bagotere].”**

12Era awo nʼabagerera olugero ati, “Museega mutya? Singa omuntu owaabba nʼentaamagye 100, kaisi omoiza nʼamugotaku, taleka 99 omu kiriisiryo, kaisi nʼayaba okunoonia oodi agotere? 13Mbakobera amazima nti owamubona, asangaala ino olwʼoyo omoiza, okukiraku olwa gidi 99 etigibbaire gigotere. 14Kale omu ngeri enanyere eyo, nʼoItewaanywe aali omwigulu yena tataka okusindika waire omoiza kwabo abatobato omu geyeena.”

15Awo oYesu ni yeeyongera okwegesya abeegibe ati, “Singa omwinawo owakukola ekikulumirirya, oyabe egyʼali omukobere ekisobyokye nga muli babiri mwenkani. Singa owakuwulisisya nʼaikirirya ekisobyokye, oolwo obba oiriryewo enkolagana nʼomwinawo oyo.* 16Neye singa owaagaana okukuwulisisya, okangeyo egyʼali nʼomwinawo ogondi ooba abandi babiri. Ekyo kityo olwakubba eKiwandiike kikoba kiti buli nsonga bateekwa kugikakasa nʼobujulizi bwa bantu babiri ooba basatu.* 17Era singa agaana bona okubawulisisya, okobere ekanisa. Era singa agaana okuwulisisya nʼekanisa, awo ngʼomubitya ngʼowewankubitirye omuntu atali mwikirirya ooba ngʼomusolooji wa musolo inywe abemweta abakola ebibbibibbi.”

18OYesu ni yeeyongera ati, “Mbakobera amazima nti kyonakyona ekimwagaananga oku kyalo oKibbumba yena omwigulu yaabbanga akigaine, era kyonakyona ekimwaikiriryanga oku kyalo oKibbumba yena omwigulu yaabbanga aikiriirye ati kibbeewo.”*

19Era oYesu ni yeeyongera ati, “Era tete ekindi, mbakobera nti singa ababiri kwinywe oku kyalo owemwaikirizagananga ni mubbaaku nʼekimusaba, oBbaabba aali omwigulu yakibakoleranga. 20Ekyo kityo olwakubba kadi babiri ooba basatu owebabba bakumbaine okulwange, zena mbaawo aamo nabo.”

21Awo oPeetero nʼaigerera egiri oYesu, nʼamubuulya ati, “Musengwa, emirundi mimeka omuntu omunange egiyankolanga ebindumirirya era nga mmusoniya? Mmusoniyenge emirundi egyera musanvu?”*

22OYesu nʼamwiramu ati, “Nkukoba nti emirundi timusanvu, neye 70 emirundi musanvu.†* 23Kagira obwakabaka bwʼomwigulu tubufaananiaku nʼokabaka eyatakire okutegeera empiiya egiyabbaire abanza abakungube. 24Oweyabbaire ngʼatandiika okukebera ebitabo, ni bamuleetera omoiza oku bakungube ogwabanza etalanta‡ 10,000. 25Neye tiyabbaire nʼempiiya okusasula eibbanja. Kale omusengwawe nʼalagira okumutundamu, nʼomukaliwe, nʼabaanabe, nʼebintubye byonabyona, okusasula eibbanja eeryo. 26Awo omukungu oyo nʼagwa oku mazwi omu maisoge, nʼamwegairira ati, ‘Onguminkirizeku era nakusasula gyonagyona.’ 27Kale omusengwawe nʼaira nʼamukwatira ekisa, nʼamusoniya eibbanja eeryo, era nʼamuteera.”

28OYesu ni yeeyongera nʼolugero ati, “Neye omukungu oyo oweyazwire awo, nʼayajirya omoiza oku bakungu abainaye ogwabanza edinaali 100. Awo nʼamugwa omu mamiro nga waakoba ati, ‘Onsasule edinaali gyange mangu!’ 29Kale omwinaye oyo oluzwanyuma nʼamwegairira ngʼagwire oku mazwi omu maisoge ati, ‘Onguminkirizeku era nakusasula.’ 30Neye iye nʼagaana okumusoniya, era nʼayaba nʼamuteeka omu mabbuusu paka ngʼamalire okumusasula eibbanja.

31“Awo abakungu abainaye owebaboine ebibbairewo, ni kibaluma ino, ni baaba ni bakobera omusengwa waabwe byonabyona ebibbairewo. 32Kale awo omusengwawe nʼamweta, nʼamukoba ati, ‘Mukungu iwe omubbimubbi, nkusoniyire eibbanja lyonalyona olwakubba onegairiire. 33Obbaire nga toyezya okukwatira omwinawo ekisa, nga nze ekinkukwatiire?’ 34Atyo omusengwawe nʼanyiiga ino, nʼamukwatisya abaisulukale abakuumi bʼamabbuusu bamugadye, era paka ngʼamalire okusasula eibbanja lyonalyona.”

35OYesu nʼamaliirirya ati, “OBbaabba aali omwigulu atyo yena weyalikola buli moiza kwinywe, singa buli muntu omu mwoyogwe tasoniya omwinaye.”
