Data wa twese ategura inzira

Yohani, yambaye impuzu z'ubwoya bw'ingamiya, abwira amasinzi aje kubatizwa ko kuvukira mu ruvyaro rwa Aburahamu ata wukiza. Hanyuma Yesu na we asaba kubatizwa, Yohani akanka avuga ko vyari bikwiye kuba ukundi. Yohani aremera, ijwi rya Data wiwe rikamwemeza ko ari Umwana wiwe akundwa.

Igice 3.

Muri iyo misi, haza Yohana Umubatizi, yamamaza mu bugaragwa bwa Yudaya, ati: “Nimwihane, kuko ubwami bwa Data wa twese bwegereje.” Uyu ni we Yesaya umuhanuzi yavuze, ati: “Ijwi risemerera mu bugaragwa, riti: Nimutegure inzira y’Umwami, mugorore amabarabara yiwe.”

Yohana yambara impuzu z’ubwoya bw’ingamiya, afunga umukanda w’uruhu mu rukenyerero; indya ziwe zari inzige n’ubuki bwo mu gahinga. Maze i Yeruzalemu na Yudaya yose n’akarere kose kari hirya no hino ya Yorodani barasohoka baja aho ari, arabamubatiza mu ruzi Yorodani, baturura ivyaha vyabo.

Abonye Abafarizayo n’Abasadukayo benshi baje kubatizwa, arababwira ati: “Yemwe bana b’incamira! Ni nde yabamenyesheje kwikiza uburake buzoza? Ni muce rero ivyamwa bibereye ukwihana. Ntimwihe kwibwira mu mitima yanyu ngo: ‘Aburahamu ni we data wacu,’ kuko ndababwira yuko Data wa twese ashobora kuzurira Aburahamu abana muri aya mabuye. Ishoka iramaze gushikira imizi y’ibiti, ni co gituma igiti cose kitama ivyamwa vyiza gitemwa kikajugunywa mu muriro.

“Jewe ndabatiza n’amazi kugira ngo mwihane, ariko uwuza inyuma yanje arankomeye kundusha—sinkwiriye no kumukorera inkweto ziwe. Uwo azobabatiza na Mpwemu Yera n’umuriro. Afise urujo rwiwe mu kuboko; azokubura ikubiro ryiwe, akoranirize ingano ziwe mu kigega, ariko ibisigara abiturire mu muriro utazima na rimwe.” ^a

Data wakira Umwana wiwe

Maze Yesu ava i Galilaya aza kuri Yorodani ku Yohana, ngo amubatize. Ariko Yohana agerageza kumubuza, ati: “Ni jewe nkeneye kubatizwa na wewe, none uze iwanje?”

Yesu aramwishura ati: “Reka bibe gutyo ubu, kuko ari ko dukwiriye gushitsa ukugororoka kwose.” Nuko Yohana aremera.

Yesu amaze kubatizwa, aca aduga ava mu mazi, maze mu kanya nyene amajuru arakingukira; abona Mpwemu wa Data wa twese amanuka nk’inuma akamwicarako.

Maze ijwi rivuye mw’ijuru rivuga riti: “Uyu ni Umwana wanje, uwo nkunda; ndamunezererwa.”
