Omasanekero wovimariva ovingoldo
(Mt 25:14-30)11 Novandu ngunda amave puratene komambo nga, Jesus wa hungira komurungu ne ve serekarerere omasanekero. Eye wa ri pokuhita mOjerusalem, novandu otji yave tjangovasi ouhona wa Ndjambi u ri pokuya. 12 Nu otja tja nai: “Pa ri omurumendu ngwa zire monganda ohona, nu arire tja i kehi rokokure a kazikwa okurira ombara, tjazumba a kotoke. 13 Nu ngunda e hiya ya, wa isanene ovakarere ve omurongo ne ve pe auhe otjimariva otjingoldo na tja ku wo: ‘Ungureye na vyo nga tji mba kotoka.’ 14 Nungwari ovandu vehi rawo ve mu tondere, notji va hinda ovahindwa ve mu tezere nu ve katje nai: ‘Omundu ngwi katu nokumuvanga kutja a rire ombara yetu.’
15 “Nungwari omurumendu ngwi wa kazikwa okurira ombara, narire tja kotoka. Tjimanga a rakiza kutja ovakarere ve imba ka yandjere ovimariva ve ye komurungu we, a tjiwe kutja auhe wa ungura pu pe ṱeki pi notjimariva otjingoldo. 16 Omutenga weya a tja: ‘Muhona, potjimariva ihi tjimwe otjingoldo tji we ndji pere mba munina po ovimariva omurongo ovingoldo.’ 17 Omuhona wa tja: ‘Okokuwa, oove omukarere omuṱakame. Ove tjinga awa ṱakama mouṋa ouṱiṱi, nambano otjinga ame ku ziki u honaparere ovihuro omurongo.’ 18 Nomukarere outjavari weya a tja: ‘Muhona, potjimariva ihi tjimwe otjingoldo tji we ndji pere mba munina po ovimariva vitano ovingoldo.’ 19 Nu ku ingwi eye wa tja: ‘Ove mo honaparere ovihuro vitano.’
20 “Omukarere omukwao outjatatu weya a tja: ‘Muhona, otjimariva tjoye otjingoldo tji mba horekere merapi, otjo hi, kambura. 21 Ami mba tira ove, tjinga au nombeze. Ove u kambura ihi tji tji he ri otjoye, nu u konda mbi u ha kunine.’ 22 Omuhona arire tja tja ku ye: ‘Me ku pangura nomambo wotjinyo tjoye omuini, mukarere omuvi. Ove iyo tjiwa kutja mbi nombeze, nokutja mbi kambura ihi tji tji he ri otjandje, nu mbi konda mbi mbi ha kunine. 23 Nokutjavi tji u ha twire ovimariva vyandje mondjuwo yomapwikiro? Nu ami tji mba kotoka, nu tji mbe kevinana mombwiko, mbi munine po otjimariva otjitjoziwa.’
24 “Tjazumba omuhona arire tja tja ku imba mba kuramene mbo: ‘Mu yekeye ihi otjimariva otjingoldo tje na tjo, nu mu tji yandje ku ingwi ngu novimariva ovingoldo omurongo.’ 25 Nungwari owo va tja ku ye: ‘Muhona, eye u novimariva ovingoldo omurongo nu!’ 26 Eye wa zirire a tja: ‘Me mu raere, auhe ngu notjiṋa, ma wezirwako komeho, nungwari ingwi ngu hi notjiṋa, ma yekwa nangarire ihi otjiṱiṱi tje na tjo. 27 Nambano imba ovanavita na ami mbe hi nokuvanga kutja mbi rire ombara yawo, ve eteye nguno, mu ye okuvezepera komurungu wandje!’ ”
Omahitiro wa Jesus mOjerusalem

Ke kutureye nu mu ke ete nguno. 31 Nu tji pa ningi omundu ngu me mu pura kutja mamu tjitire tjike nao, mu raereye kutja Muhona me ke hepa.”
32 Nowo va ya, nu ave kavaza avihe avi ri otja Jesus pe ve raerere. 33 Nu ngunda amave ke kutura, oveni vako arire tji va tja ku wo: “Okasinona mamu ke kuturire tjike?”
34 Owo va zirire ave tja: “Muhona me ke hepa.” 35 Nowo ve ke eta ku Jesus. Tjazumba otji va yara ozombanda zawo kombanda yokasinona nave vatere Jesus okukekavira. 36 Nu eye ngunda ama kavire, ovandu va yara ozombanda zawo mondjira.
37 Nu Jesus tja vaza popezu na Jerusalem, pomarandatero wondjira kOndundu yOmiṋinga, otjimbumba otjinene tjovemukongorere arire tji tja utu okuhivirika Ndjambi nokumutanga neraka enene mena roviṋa avihe ovinene owo mbi va mwine, ave tja: 38 “Ngai tangwe indji ombara ndji mai ya mena ra Muhona! Ohange meyuru nondatero ku Ndjambi wOkombandambanda!”
39 Ovafarisei tjiva motjimbumba va hungira ku Jesus ave tja: “Muhonge, raera ovakongorere voye kutja ve mwine!”
40 Jesus wa zirire nai: “Ami me mu raere, owo tji va mwina, omawe maye ravaere.”
Jesus ma riri Jerusalem
41 Jesus tje ere popezu notjihuro, nu tje tji muna, we tji rira 42 a tja: “Andakuzu ndinondi ove wina wa tjiwa imbi mbi mavi ku pe ohange, nungwari ovyo nambano vya undikwa kove. 43 Omayuva maye ya ovanavita na ove tji mave ku yumbu orumbo, ave ku kovere nave ku pamisa kominda avihe. 44 Owo mave ku nyono okumana puna ovature voye. Nu move kamaave isa ewe nangarire rimwe kombanda yekwao, ove tjinga au ha zemburukire oruveze Ndjambi ndwe ya okukuyama!”
Jesus ma i kondjuwo ya Muhona
(Mt 21:12-17Mk 11:15-19Jhn 2:13-22)45 Jesus wa hitire mondjuwo ya Muhona na utu okuramba imba mbaa ve randasanene mu yo, 46 ama tja ku wo: “Kape tjangerwe nai are: ‘Ondjuwo yandje mai isanewa kutja ondjuwo yongumbiro.’ Nungwari eṋe mwe i isa po ondimba yovapunde!”
47 Eyuva arihe Jesus aa hongo mondjuwo ya Muhona. Ovapristeri Oviuru nozonongo zomambo novanane votjiwaṋa aave vanga okumuzepa, 48 nungwari owo kave mwine omuhingo mbu va sere okumuzepa na wo, otjiwaṋa atjihe tjinga aatji puratene ku ye nonyuṋe.
1 And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. 2 And, behold, there was a man named Zacchæus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich. 3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature. 4 And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way . 5 And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchæus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house. 6 And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully. 7 And when they saw it , they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner. 8 And Zacchæus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold. 9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. 11 And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear. 12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come. 14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us. 15 And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds. 17 And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities. 18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds. 19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities. 20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin: 21 For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow. 22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow: 23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury? 24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds. 25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.) 26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him. 27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
28 ¶ And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem. 29 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, 30 Saying, Go ye into the village over against you ; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither . 31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him ? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him. 32 And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them. 33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt? 34 And they said, The Lord hath need of him. 35 And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon. 36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way. 37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen; 38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest. 39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples. 40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
41 ¶ And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it, 42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes. 43 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, 44 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation. 45 And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought; 46 Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves. 47 And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him, 48 And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.
