8Tsono Zakeu adaima aciuza Mbuya kuti: “Bvani Mbuya, nin'pereka bzinthu bzangu bzentse pakati-na-kati kuna wakusauka. Ndipo penu ndidabera winango, nin'dzamubwezera kanai kentse”.

9Ndipo Jezu adamuuza kuti: “Lero panyumba pano pafika cipulumuso! Thangwe mwamuna umweyumbo ni mwana wa Abrahamu. 10Nakuti Mwana wa Munthu adabwera kudzalinga na kupulumusa comwe cikhadataika”.

14“Tsono mbumba ya mudzikomo ikhamuwenga, ndipopo adatumiza aimikiri kuti akamuuze aciti: ‘Tin'funa lini kuti munthu umweyu akhale mambo wathu’ ”.

15“Tsono iye adaikhidwa umambo ndipo adabwerera. Pamwepo adacemeresa wabasa wace omwe akhadapasa kobiri, kuti adziwe adaphindula zingasi”.

16“Wakuyamba adabwera aciti: ‘Mbuya, kobiri yanu yaphindula zinango khumi’ ”.

17Mbuya wace adatawira kuti: “Wacita bwino, wabasa wangu wabwino! Nakuti wakhala wakukhulupirika pa bzing'ono-ng'ono, tonga mizinda khumi”.

18“Waciwiri adabwerambo adati: ‘Mbuya, kobiri yanu yaphindula zinango zixanu’ ”.

19“Mbuya wace adamutawira kuti: ‘Iwepombo tonga mizinda mixanu’ ”.

20“Pamwepo adabwerambo wabasa winango adati: ‘Mbuya, kobiri yanu iyi. Ine ndikhadaikoya, idamangirira papfundo pa nguwo. 21Nakuti ndikhana mantha, thangwe ndimwe munthu wakunesa kwene-kwene. Mumbatenga comwe mulibe kuikha ndipo mumbabvuna bzomwe mulibe kubzala’ ”.

22“Mbuya wace adatawira kuti: ‘Ine nin'dzakupasa mulandu na mafala yakoya, wabasa wakuipa! Iwepo ukhadziwa kuti ndine munthu wakunesa kwene-kwene, omwe ndimbatenga bzomwe ndiribe kuikha ndipo ndimbabvuna bzomwe ndiribe kubzala. 23Tsono, ni thangwe ranyi ulibe kukakoya kobiri yangu kuthenthe lakukoyera kobiri? Tenepayu, ndabwererepa ndingadatambira na phindu’ ”.

24“Ndipo adauza wale omwe akhali pamwepo, kuti: ‘Mutengereni kobiri yace pasani ule omwe ana kobiri khumi’ ”.

25“Iwo adati ‘Mbuya iye anazo kale khumi!’ ”

26“Iye adatawira kuti: ‘Ine nin'kuuzani kuti omwe anabzo, anipasidwa bzinango, tsono ule omwe alibe, napo bzomwe anabzo an'dzatengeredwa. 27Ndipo anyamadulanthaka wangu wale, omwe akhafuna lini kutongedwa na ine, abwereseni pano ndipo muwaphe patsogolo pangu!’ ”.

Kupita kwakulemekezeka kwa Jezu muJerusalema

(Mat 21.1-11; Mko 11.1-11; Juw 12.12-19)

28Jezu pomwe adamala kulewa bzimwebzo, adatsogola paulendo bwace acimbakwira kuyenda kuJerusalema. 29Pomwe adafika kufupi na mii ya Betifaje na Betanya, paphiri likhacemeredwa Phiri la Oliva, adatuma ateweri wace awiri adawauza kuti: 30“Ndokoni pamui omwe uli kutsogoloyo, ndipo pakupita m'muimo mun'kawona kabulu kadamangirira, komwe palibe omwe adakapakira kale. Mukakatsudzule mucibwera nako kuno. 31Penu winango an'kakubvundzani kuti: ‘Thangwe ranyi muli kukatsudzula?’ Kamuuzeni kuti: Mbuya alikukafuna”.

32Ndipo wale omwe akhadatumidwa adayenda ndipo adakagumana kabulu kale ninga momwe akhadauzidwa. 33Pomwe iwo akhatsudzula kabuluko, wenekaciro adawabvundza kuti: “Thangwe ranyi imwepo mulikukatsudzula kabuluka?”

34Iwo adatawira kuti: “Mbuya alikukafuna”.

35Iwo adakatenga aciyenda nako kuna Jezu, acitandika bzakubvala bzawo pakabulupo ndipo adathandiza Jezu kuti apakire. 36Pomwe Iye akhambayenda mbumba ikhatandika bzakubvala bzawo munjira. 37Pomwe akhali pafupi na phompho la phiri la Oliva, mthithi wentse wa ateweri adayamba kutumbiza Mulungu mwakukondwa, ndipo akhambakuwa, thangwe ra bzidabwiso bzentse bzomwe iwo adawona. Akhambati:

38“Wakusimbidwa ni mambo omwe alikubwera

mudzina la Mbuya!”#19.38 Mas 118.26

“Mtendere kudzulu

ndipo mbiri kuna Mulungu!”

39Ndipo aFalizi anango omwe akhali pakati pa mthithi wa wanthuwo adauza Jezu kuti: “Misiri, tsimulani ateweri wanu!”

40Jezu adawatawira kuti: “Ine nin'kuuzani kuti, iwo akanyamala minyalayi in'dzakuwa”.

Jezu adalira thangwe ra Jerusalema

41Pomwe Jezu akhafika pafupi aciwona mzinda wa Jerusalema, adaulirira mzindawo 42ndipo adati: “Iwepo ungadadziwa lero kuti ni ciyani cingakupase mtendere! Tsono tsapano lino cidabisika ciniwoneka lini na maso yako. 43Zirikubwera ntsiku zomwe anyamadulanthaka wako an'dzakucerera madindi, an'dzakuzungulira mbali zentse. 44Ndipombo an'dzakudzonga pabodzi na wana wako padziko. An'dzasiya lini mwala padzulu pa undzace, thangwe imwepo mulibe kuzindikira mpata wa kuzungiridwa kwanu”.

Jezu adacenesa Nyumba ya Mulungu

45Pamwepo Iye adapita m'Nyumba ya Mulungu ndipo adayamba kuthotha omwe akhacita malonda mkatimo. 46Jezu adawauza kuti: “Bzidanembedwa kuti: ‘Nyumba yangu in'dzakhala nyumba ya kupembera’#19.46 Iza 56.7 Tsono imwepo mulikucita ‘nkhunde ya mbava’#19.46 Jer 7.11”.

47Ndipo ntsiku zentse Jezu akhambapfundzisa m'Nyumba ya Mulungu. Tsono akulu-akulu wa azibaba wa ntsembe, adziwi wa Mtemo, na atsogoleri wa mbumba akhafuna kumupha. 48Tsono iwo akhakwanisa lini kuwona mpata wakuti abzicite bzimwebzo, thangwe mbumba yentse yomwe akhamubva, ikhatengeka mitima na mafala yaceyo.
