Kani umadziwa kuti ndine munthu wowuma mtima ndi wotenga chimene sindinasungitse, ndi kukolola chimene sindinadzale? 23Nanga nʼchifukwa chiyani sunasungitse ndalama yanga, kuti ine pobwera, ndidzayitenge ndi chiwongoladzanja?’

24“Ndipo iye anawuza amene anayimirira pafupi kuti, ‘Tengani ndalama yake ndi kumupatsa amene ali ndi ndalama khumiyo!’ ”

25Iwo anati, “Bwana iyeyu ali nazo kale khumi!”

26Iye anayankha kuti, “Ndikukuwuzani kuti, aliyense amene ali nazo, adzapatsidwa zambiri, koma amene alibe, adzalandidwa ngakhale chimene ali nacho. 27Tsono adani anga aja amene sankafuna kuti ndikhale mfumu yawo, abweretseni pano ndi kuwapha ine ndikuona.”

Mukamumasule ndi kubwera naye kuno. 31Ngati wina aliyense akakufunsani kuti, ‘Nʼchifukwa chiyani mukumumasula mwana buluyo?’ Mukamuwuze kuti, ‘Ambuye akumufuna.’ ”

40Iye anayankha kuti, “Ine ndikukuwuzani kuti, ngati atakhala chete, miyala idzafuwula.”

41Iye atayandikira ku Yerusalemu ndi kuona mzindawo, anawulirira 42nati, “Iwe ukanadziwa lero lino zinthu zokubweretsera mtendere, koma tsopano zabisikira maso ako. 43Pakuti masiku adzabwera pamene adani ako adzamanga mitumbira yankhondo nakuzungulira, nadzakutsekereza mbali zonse. 44Iwo adzakugwetsera pansi, iwe, ana ako onse a mʼkati mwako.
