1 Lumo, oPeetero nʼoYokaana ni baniinaniina okwaba omu Yeekaalu oku saawa omwenda egyʼeigolo, esaawa abantu omu bakumbaaniranga okusaba oKibbumba. 2 Owebabbaire batuuka oku luuga lwʼeYeekaalu wabbairewo omusaiza ogubabyaire nga munialuuki ogubabbaire batuuca oku geeti. Buli lunaku bamuteekanga awo oku geeti egibeeta eNsa, asabirirye abantu abaingira. 3 Oweyaboine oPeetero nʼoYokaana nga baiza batira okwingira, nʼabasaba empiiya. 4 Awo bona ni bamwekalikica, era oPeetero nʼamukoba ati, “Kaade otulingirire!” 5 Atyo yena nʼabakaliryaku amaiso, ngʼasuubira ati babbaaku nʼakantu akebamuwa.

6 Awo oPeetero nʼamukoba ati, “Empiiya ngibula, wazira ekindinakyo kinakuwa. Omu liina lya Yesu oKurisito owʼe Naazaleesi, nkulagira nti, otambule.” 7 Awo oPeetero nʼamukwata oku ngalo endiiro, nʼamubbeeraku okumusetuca. Amangu ago, ebigere bya musaiza oyo nʼobubbongebwe ni bicaata. 8 Omusaiza nʼayalamuka nʼayemerera, era nʼatandiika nʼokutambula. Era nʼaingira nabo oku luuga lwʼeYeekaalu ngʼatambula era ngʼajuukajuuka ngʼawuuja oKibbumba. 9 Abantu bonabona ababbaire awo owebaboine ngʼatambula awuuja oKibbumba 10 baabire okumwetegereza nga dala niiye oyo eyatyamanga oku geeti yʼoluuga lwʼeYeekaalu egibeeta bati Nsa ngʼasabirirya. Bonabona ni beewunya ino, era ni bawugulala olwʼekyo ekyabbaire kituukire oku musaiza oyo.

11 Awo omusaiza eyabbaire omunialuuki ngʼakaali ali nʼoPeetero nʼoYokaana abeesibireku olwʼekibabbaire bamukoleire, abantu bonabona ababbairewo, ni beewunya era ni bairuka okwiza egiri oPeetero nʼoYokaana omu kigango ekibakaliryeku eriina bati Pooci ya kabaka oSulemaani. 12 OPeetero oweyaboine abantu beekumbaanirye, nʼabakoba ati, “Baisirairi bainange, ekyo lwaki dala kibeewunyisya? Ekigira mutumaliraku amaiso mutyo niki ooti-so amo bwezye bwaiswe, ooba butuukirirye bwaiswe omu maiso ga Kibbumba niibyo ebyezeserye omusaiza onu okutambula? 13 OKibbumba wa Ibbulaimu, era wa Isaka, era wa Yaakobbo, abazeiza baiswe abo ogubasinzanga, niiye agulumairye oMuweereryawe 3:13 Isa 42:1; 49:6; 52:13; 53:11 oYesu, inywe ogumwawaireyo bamwite, era ni mumwegaanira omu maiso ga Piraato, waire nga iye yabbaire asalirewo okumuteera. 3:13 Kuz 3:15 14 Obone dala ni mwegaana oyo Atuukiriire era oMweru wa Kibbumba, kaisi omu kifookye ni musaba babateerere omutemo. 3:14 Mat 27:15-23; Mak 15:6-14; Luk 23:13-23; Yok 19:12-15 15 Dala ni mwita oyo onsulo wʼobwomi obutawaawo, neye oKibbumba nʼamuzuukiza. Era iswe swenaswena ekyo ekitukoba twakyeboneireku nʼagaiswe. 16 Olwʼokwesiga oYesu oyo nʼobwezyebwe, kagira omuntu onu ogumubona aanu era ogumumaite nakusani airiremu amaani. Ekikoba kiti, kwikirirya okutuli nakwo omu liina lya Yesu niikwo okugirisirye nʼalamirya nakimo omusaiza onu, era nywenanywena ngʼowemwebonesya.

17 “Aale atyanu baganda bange, nkimaite nga inywe, aamo nʼabeekubbemberi baanywe, ebimwakolere oYesu, mwabikolere mu butamanya. 18 Neye obone, mwibyo niimwo oKibbumba omuyabitiire okutuukirirya ebyo ebiyabbaire alangiriire e nyuma nakimo eedi, ngʼabitira omu banaabbi bonabona, ati oKurisito oyo oguyalondere okununula abantu yalibita omu kugada era ni bamwita. 19 Nʼolwekyo mwenenye, mugaluke mwire eeri oKibbumba asoniye ebibbibibbi byanywe, kaisi emyoyo gyanywe gisunenge okwira obuyaaka okuzwa eeri oMusengwa oKibbumba. 20 Era aweererye tete oKurisito oyo oguyamalire okubalondera, era ngʼoyo niiye oYesu. 21 OKurisito oyo aali nʼokubba ngʼasigala omwigulu paka ekiseera oKibbumba oweyaliiriryawo obuyaaka buli kintu nga kituukiriire, era ngʼoweyasuubizire eira eino ngʼabitira omu banaabbibe abeeru. 22 Ngʼekyokuboneraku, onaabbi Musa yakobere ati, ‘OMusengwa waanywe oKibbumba yalibasetulira onaabbi okuzwa omu bantu bʼeigwanga lyanywe eyalifaanana ooti ninze. Muteganga amatwi eeri byonabyona ebyo ebiyalibakoba. 3:22 Ama 18:15,18 23 Oyo yenayena atawulisisya onaabbi oyo, oKibbumba yalimutooleramu kimo nantabba omuntu owuwe, era nʼamujigirica.’ 3:23 Ama 18:19

24 “Era abanaabbi abandi bonabona, nga mwotwaliirye nʼoSamwiri nʼabo abamwiririireku, abo bonabona ababbaireku nʼekibono okuzwa eeri oKibbumba ekibatumwire, ebiriwo omu naku ginu babirangiriire. 25 Ebyo oKibbumba ebiyasuubizire ngʼabitira omu banaabbi, byanywe era nʼendagaano egiyalaagaine nʼabazeiza baanywe, bagikolere kugasa niinywe. Yakobere oIbbulaimu ati, ‘Naliwa amawanga gonagona enkabi nga mbita mu baizukulubo.’ 3:25 Nta 22:18 26 Kagira obona oti oKibbumba oweyamalire okulonda omuweereryawe oYesu, yasookere kumusindika eeri niinywe abagase kinene ngʼabagaluca nywenanywena abatoole omu kwabira oku bikole byanywe ebibbibibbi.”
