“Iye ayankha kuti madengu a tirigu 1,000.
“Iye anati, ‘Tenga pamene unalemba ngongole yakoyo ndipo ulembepo 800.’
8“Bwana anayamikira kapitawo wosakhulupirikayo popeza anachita mochenjera. Pakuti anthu a dziko lino lapansi ndi ochenjera kwambiri akamachita zinthu ndi anthu ofanana nawo kuposa anthu a kuwunika. 9Ine ndikukuwuzani inu, gwiritsani ntchito chuma cha dziko lapansi kuti mudzipezere nokha abwenzi, kuti pamene chatha mudzalandiridwe mʼmalo okhala amuyaya.
10“Amene akhulupirika pa zinthu zochepa akhoza kukhulupirikanso pa zinthu zambiri, ndipo amene sakhulupirika pa zinthu zochepa adzakhala wosakhulupirika pa zinthu zambiri. 11Ndipo ngati simunakhale okhulupirika pogwiritsa ntchito chuma cha dziko lapansi, ndani amene adzakusungitsani chuma chenicheni? 12Ndipo ngati simunakhale okhulupirika ndi chuma cha mwini wake, ndani amene adzakupatsani katundu wanuwanu?
13“Palibe wantchito amene angatumikire mabwana awiri. Mwina iye adzadana ndi wina ndi kukonda winayo, kapena adzakhala wodzipereka kwa wina ndi kumunyoza winayo. Inu simungathe kutumikira Mulungu komanso ndalama nthawi imodzi.”
14Afarisi amene ankakonda ndalama atamva zimenezi anamuseka Yesu. 15Yesu anawawuza kuti, “Inu ndi amene mumadzilungamitsa nokha pamaso pa anthu, koma Mulungu amadziwa mitima yanu. Zinthu zimene anthu amaziyesa zopambana, ndi zonyansa pamaso pa Mulungu.

Kuyambira nthawi imeneyo, Uthenga Wabwino wa ufumu wa Mulungu ukulalikidwa, ndipo aliyense akuyesetsa mwamphamvu kuti alowemo. 17Nʼkwapafupi kuti kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi zichoke kulekana ndi kuti kalemba kakangʼono kachoke mʼMalamulo.
18“Aliyense amene asiya mkazi wake ndi kukakwatira mkazi wina akuchita chigololo, ndipo mwamuna amene akwatira mkazi wosiyidwayo akuchitanso chigololo.”

19“Panali munthu wachuma amene ankavala zovala zofiirira za mtengowapatali ndipo ankakhala moyo wachisangalalo tsiku lililonse. 20Pa khomo la mpanda wake ankagonekapo munthu wopempha wotchedwa Lazaro, wazilonda thupi lonse 21ndipo ankafunitsitsa atadya zomwe zinkagwa pansi kuchokera pamene munthu wolemerayo amadyerapo. Agalu ankabweranso ndi kumanyambita zilonda zake.
22“Nthawi inafika imene wopemphayo anamwalira ndipo angelo anamunyamula nakamuyika mʼmanja mwa Abrahamu. Munthu wolemerayo anamwaliranso ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda. 23Ali mʼgehena kuzunzika, anakweza maso ake ndipo anaona Abrahamu ali ndi Lazaro pambali pake. 24Ndipo anafuwula kwa iye kuti, ‘Abambo Abrahamu, mundimvere chisoni ine ndipo mutumeni Lazaroyo kuti aviyike msonga ya chala chake mʼmadzi kuti aziziritse lilime langa, chifukwa ndikumva ululu mʼmoto muno.’
25“Koma Abrahamu anayankha kuti, ‘Mwanawe kumbukira kuti nthawi yamoyo wako unalandira zinthu zako zabwino, pamene Lazaro analandira zinthu zoyipa, koma tsopano akusangalatsidwa kuno ndipo iwe uli mʼmazunzo. 26Ndipo kuwonjezera pa zonsezi, pakati pa inu ndi ife pali chiphompho chachikulu chimene chinayikidwa, kotero kuti amene akufuna kubwera kumeneko sangathe, kapena palibe amene angawoloke kuchokera kumeneko kudzafika kuno.’
27“Iye anayankha kuti, ‘Ndipo ndikupemphani inu, abambo, mutumeni Lazaro ku nyumba ya abambo anga, 28pakuti ine ndili ndi abale asanu. Lolani iye akawachenjeze kotero kuti asadzabwere kumalo ano amazunzo.’
29“Abrahamu anayankha kuti, ‘Ali ndi Mose ndi Aneneri; aleke amvere iwo.’
30“Iye anati, ‘Ayi, bambo Abrahamu, koma ngati wina ochokera kwa akufa adzapita kwa iwo, adzatembenuka mtima.’
31“Anati kwa iye, ‘Ngati iwo samvera Mose ndi Aneneri, sadzakhulupirira ngakhale wina atauka kwa akufa.’ ”

Kale genda otegeke lipoota y’ebintu byange nga bwe biri ogindeetere. Omulimu gukufudde.’
3“Omuwanika n’alowooza mu mutima gwe, nga yeebuuza nti, ‘Kale kaakano nkole ntya? Mukama wange wuuno angoba ku mulimu. Sirina maanyi galima, n’okusabiriza kunkwasa ensonyi. 4Ekinaasobozesa abantu okunsembeza mu maka gaabwe, nga bwe ngobeddwa ku mulimu, nkifunye.’
5“N’agenda ng’ayita buli eyalina ebbanja ku mukama we. Gwe yasookerako n’amubuuza nti, ‘Ebbanja mukama wange ly’akubanja lyenkana wa obunene?’ ”
