Okupangura ovakweṋu

Rutengatenga isa mo indji ondimbo ndji ri meho roye, tjazumba u sore okumuna nawa okunana inga okarupambaro ku ke ri meho romukweṋu.

Ningira, paha, kongora
(Lk 11:9-13)7 “Ningireye nu mamu pewa; paheye nu mamu munu; kongoreye nu mamu patururirwa, 8 orondu auhe ngu ma ningire ma pewa, ngu ma paha ma munu, nu ngu ma kongora ma patururirwa. 9 Nu omurumendu uṋe omukwate mokati keṋu, omuatje we omuzandu tje mu ningire omboroto ngu me mu pe ewe? 10 Poo tje mu ningire ohi ngu me mu pe onyoka? 11 Neṋe mbu mu ri ovavi tji mu tjiwa okuyandja oviṋa oviwa kovanatje veṋu, indu Iho ngu ri meyuru, tjiri, ke nokuyandja oviwa ovingi tjinene okukapita ku imba mbu mave mu ningire are?

Omuvero omumango
(Lk 13:24)13 “Hitireye momuvero okasina, omuvero mbwi mbu twara kombandjarero omuparanga, nondjira ndji yenda ngo ombupu, novengi mbe kayenda mu yo. 14 Nungwari omuvero mbu twara komuinyo owo okasina, nondjira ndji yenda ngo ye ura nouzeu, ovandu ovaṱiṱi mbe i muna.
Omuti novihape vyawo
(Lk 6:43-44)15 “Ṱakamiseye ovaprofete woposyo; owo ve mu yendera mozombanda zozonḓu, nungwari tjandje owo, tjiri, ozombungu ozonyondorore. 16 Eṋe mamu ve zemburukire kovihape vyawo.

Hi na pu mbe mu tjivirwe
(Lk 13:25-27)21 “Kaye ngwi auhe ngu ma tja ku ami: ‘Muhona, Muhona,’ ongu ma hiti mouhona womayuru, nungwari ma rire ingwi porwe ngu ma yenenisa ombango ya Tate ngu ri meyuru. 22 Eyuva rombanguriro tji re ya, ovengi mave tja ku ami: ‘Muhona, Muhona!

Zapweye pu ami, eṋe vatjite wouvi!’
Ovatunge vevari vozondjuwo
(Lk 6:47-49)24 “Nu auhe ngu ma zuu omambo wandje nga na kara nonḓuviro ku wo, wa sana nomundu omunazondunge ngwa tunga ondjuwo ye kombanda yoruuwa. 25 Nombura ya roka tjinene, nomupupo au ya, notjivepo tje riveta nomasa mondjuwo ndji. Nungwari oyo kai wire ko, tjinga aya tungirwe kombanda yoruuwa.
26 “Nungwari auhe ngu ma zuu omambo wandje nga na ha kara nonḓuviro ku wo, wa sana nomundu eyova ngwa tunga ondjuwo ye meheke. 27 Ombura onḓeu ya roka, omupupo au ya, otjivepo tje riveta nomasa mondjuwo ndji, noyo ai wire ai hahauka okumanuka!”

Judging Others
(Luke 6.37Luke 38Luke 41Luke 42)1 Don't condemn others, and God won't condemn you. 2 God will be as hard on you as you are on others! He will treat you exactly as you treat them.
3 You can see the speck in your friend's eye, but you don't notice the log in your own eye. 4 How can you say, “My friend, let me take the speck out of your eye,” when you don't see the log in your own eye? 5 You're nothing but show-offs! First, take the log out of your own eye; then you can see how to take the speck out of your friend's eye.
6 Don't give to dogs what belongs to God. They will only turn and attack you. Don't throw pearls down in front of pigs. They will trample all over them.
Ask, Search, Knock
(Luke 11.9-13)7 Ask, and you will receive. Search, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened for you. 8 Everyone who asks will receive. Everyone who searches will find. And the door will be opened for everyone who knocks.
9 Would any of you give your hungry child a stone, if the child asked for some bread? 10 Would you give your child a snake if the child asked for a fish? 11 As bad as you are, you still know how to give good gifts to your children. But your heavenly Father is even more ready to give good things to people who ask.
12 Treat others as you want them to treat you. This is what the Law and the Prophets are all about.
The Narrow Gate
(Luke 13.24)13 Go in through the narrow gate. The gate to destruction is wide, and the road that leads there is easy to follow. A lot of people go through that gate. 14 But the gate to life is very narrow. The road that leads there is so hard to follow that only a few people find it.
A Tree and Its Fruit
(Luke 6.43-45)15 Watch out for false prophets! They dress up like sheep, but inside they are wolves who have come to attack you. 16 You can tell what they are by what they do. No one picks grapes or figs from thornbushes. 17 A good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot produce good fruit. 19 Every tree producing bad fruit will be chopped down and burned. 20 You can tell who the false prophets are by their deeds.
A Warning
(Luke 13.26Luke 27)21 Not everyone who calls me their Lord will get into the kingdom of heaven. Only the ones who obey my Father in heaven will get in. 22 On the day of judgment many will call me their Lord. They will say, “We preached in your name, and in your name we forced out demons and worked many miracles.” 23 But I will tell them, “I will have nothing to do with you! Get out of my sight, you evil people!”
Two Builders
(Luke 6.47-49)24 Anyone who hears and obeys these teachings of mine is like a wise person who built a house on solid rock. 25 Rain poured down, rivers flooded, and winds beat against that house. But it was built on solid rock, and so it did not fall.
26 Anyone who hears my teachings and doesn't obey them is like a foolish person who built a house on sand. 27 Rain poured down, rivers flooded, and the winds blew and beat against that house. Finally, it fell with a crash.
28 When Jesus finished speaking, the crowds were surprised at his teaching. 29 He taught them like someone with authority, and not like their teachers of the Law of Moses.
