(Mathayo 26:1–5; Mariko 14:1–2; Luka 22:1–2)

45Phahi atu okala akamlunga-lunga Maryamu hadi mbirani, na kuona gara achigohenda Jesu, anji amkuluphira. 46Ela anjina aphiya kpwa Mafarisayo achendasema gara Jesu achigohenda. 47Alafu Mafarisayo na akulu a alavyadzi-sadaka ahenda mkpwutano wa Baraza ra vilongozi a Chiyahudi, achiambirana, “Hunagaya bure!
