Mbvundzo na mbvundzo ziikhwa ninga msampha — msonkho wa Kaisari, nkazi adasala mkazi wamasiye kanomwe, mtemo ukulu, kufuna Baba wathu na pyonsene — mbwenye kalikonsene kasabwerera kuna anyakubvunza. Penepo Yezu abvunza yace ene thangwi ya Mbuya wa Dhavidhi, na nkhabe munthu adaphata mphanvu ya kumbvunza pontho.

Kapitulu 22.

Yezu alonga pontho na iwo mu misangani, mbalonga tenepa:

“Umambo wa Baba wathu usafanana na mambo ule adakhunganya phwando ya malowozi ya mwana wace. Iye atuma atumiki ace toera kucemera ale adacemerwa ku phwando ya malowozi, mbwenye iwo akhonda kubwera. Atuma pontho atumiki anango, mbalonga tenepa: ‘Pangani ale adacemerwa: Onani, ndakhunganya cakudya canga; ng'ombe zanga na pifuyo pyakununa pyaphiwa, pyonsene pyakhunganyika. Bwerani ku phwando ya malowozi.’ Mbwenye iwo nee abvesera, mbaenda, m'bodzi ku munda wace, unango ku malonda ace, Na ale adasala aphata atumiki ace, mbaacitira pyakuipa, mbaapha. Mambo aipirwa kakamwe, mbatuma anyankhondo ace, mbafudza anyakupha anewa, mbapisa nzinda wawo. Penepo apanga atumiki ace tenepa: ‘Phwando ya malowozi yakhunganyika, mbwenye ale adacemerwa nee akhathema. Natenepo ndokoni ku miseu mikulu, mbamucemera ku phwando ya malowozi onsene anafuna imwe kuagumana.’ Atumiki anewa abuluka, mbaenda ku miseu, mbaunganya onsene adagumana iwo, akuipa na adidi, na nyumba ya malowozi yadzala na alendo.

“Mbwenye mambo pidapita iye toera kuona alendo, aona mamuna m'bodzi akhadabvala nguwo za malowozi tayu. Iye am'bvundza tenepa: ‘Xamwali, wapita tani muno mbukhonda kukhala na nguwo za malowozi?’ Mamuna asowa cakutawira. Penepo mambo apanga atumiki tenepa: ‘Mangani manja na miyendo yace, mbamunthusa ku cidima ca kunja, kunakhala kulira na kukweta mano.’ Thangwi azinji asacemerwa, mbwenye akucepa ndiwo asankhulwa.”

Perekani kuna Baba Wathu Pire Piri Pyace

Penepo Afarisi aenda, mbasankhula kuti am'gwere tani na mafala ace ene.

Iwo atuma kuna iye anyakupfundza awo, pabodzi na Aherodhi, mbalonga kuti: “Mpfundzisi, tisadziwa kuti imwe ndimwe wandimomwene, pontho musapfundzisa njira ya Mulungu mwandimomwene; nkhabe kugopa munthu, thangwi nkhabe kuyang'ana maonekero a anthu. Natenepo tipangeni pinanyerezera imwe: Kodi mwambo usatawirisa kulipa mitsonkho kuna Kaisari, peno nkhabe?”

Mbwenye Yezu, mbadziwa kuipa kwa mitima yawo, alonga kuti: “Thangwi yanji musandiyesera, imwe anyakunyengeza? Ndipangizeni kobiri inaperekwa mitsonkho.” Penepo iwo am'bweresera dhinari.

Iye aapanga: “Cithundzithundzi ici na malemba awa ndi pya ani?”

Iwo atawira: “Pya Kaisari.” Penepo iye aapanga: “Natenepo perekani kuna Kaisari pire piri pya Kaisari, na kuna Baba wathu pire piri pya Baba wathu.”

Pidabva iwo pyenepi, adzumatirwa; mbansiya iye, mbaenda.

Baba Wathu Ndi Mulungu wa Ale Ali Maso

Ntsiku ibodzi ene abwera kuna iye Asadhukeu, ale asalonga kuti nkhabepo kulamuka kwa anyakufa, mbam'bvundza, mbalonga tenepa: “Mpfundzisi, Mose alonga kuti: mamuna angafa mbakhonda kukhala na mwana, m'bale wace asafunika kulowola nzice toera kubalira m'bale wace ana. Pakati pathu pakhali na abale anomwe. Wakutoma alowola, mbafa, mbakhonda kukhala na mwana, mbasiyira m'bale wace nkazi wace. Pibodzi pyene pyacitika kuna waciwiri na wacitatu, mpaka kuna wacinomwe. Pakumalisa pa onsene, nkazi afa. Natenepo, mu kulamuka kwa anyakufa, iye anadzakhala nkazi wa ani pa anomwe anewa? Thangwi onsene akhanlowola iye.”

Yezu atawira tenepa: “Imwe mwaperewera—nkhabe kudziwa Malemba, nee mphambvu ya Baba wathu. Thangwi mu kulamuka kwa anyakufa anthu nkhabe kulowola nee kulowolwa, mbwenye asakhala ninga aanju a kudzulu. Cincino, thangwi ya kulamuka kwa anyakufa, kodi cipo mwaleri pire pidakupangani Baba wathu:

‘Ine ndine Mulungu wa Abhrahamu, wa Izaki, na wa Yakobe’? Iye si Mulungu wa anyakufa tayu, mbwenye wa ale ali maso.”

Mbumba pidabva iyo pyenepi, yadzumatirwa na mapfundzisiro ace.

Funani Baba Wanu na Pyonsene Piri na Imwe

Mbwenye Afarisi pidabva iwo kuti iye aamatisa Asadhukeu, agumanyikana pabodzi. Na m'bodzi wa iwo, nyakudziwa Mwambo, am'bvundza mbvundzo toera kum'yesera: “Mpfundzisi, mu Mwambo mtemo mukulu ndi upi?”

Iye ampanga tenepa: “Funa Baba wako na ntima wako onsene, na moyo wako onsene, na nzeru zako zonsene. Uyu ndi mtemo mukulu, pontho wakutoma. Na waciwiri usafanana na uyu: Funa ndzako ninga iwe ekhene. Mwambo onsene na Aprofeta pisakhomeka mu mitemo miwiri iyi.”

Kirixtu Ndi Mwana wa Ani?

Afarisi mukhadagumanyikana iwo pabodzi, Yezu aabvundza, “Musanyerezeranji thangwi ya Kirixtu? Iye ndi mwana wa ani?” Iwo antawira: “Wa Dhavidhi.”

Iye aabvundza: “Natenepo, thangwi yanji Dhavidhi, mukutsogolerwa na Nzimu Wakucena, asancemera Mbuya, mbalonga kuti:

‘Baba wathu apanga Mbuya wanga, “Khalani ku nkono wanga wa madyo, mpaka ndikaikha anyamalwa wanu pantsi pa miyendo yanu”’?

Natenepo, Dhavidhi angancemera Kirixtu Mbuya, Kirixtu anakhala tani mwana wa Dhavidhi?”

Nkhabe munthu akwanisa kuntawira fala, pontho kubulukira ntsiku ineyi nkhabe munthu akhacita cipapo cakum'bvundza cinango.
