Waandaye wa Heroti bari Filipo, yali omwami wa ebibala bia Iturea nende Tarakoniti. Lisania naye yali omwami wa esibala sia Abilene. 2 Munyinga cha Abasaayi abakhulundu, Anasi nende Kayafa, Yohana omusiani wa Sakaria yanyoola likhuwa okhurula khu Wele nali musichimi. 3 Mani wacha chimbeka choosi cha Yoritani na yelwacha ari abandu bekanile kho Wele ababeele obwoni bwabo. 4 Khuli kahandikwa musitabu sia omung'oosi Isaya kari:
“Omwoyo kulalanganga musichiimi:
‘Rekekha omuyila kwa Omwami,
lomba yingila yiiye yilunjikhe.
5 Yichusia amatikho koosi,
kwalasia ebiili nende ebikulu bioosi,
lomba yinjila yekanyakanya yilunjikhe,
miusia chinjila chahandalala chibe chimiufu.
6 Kho abandu boosi balengele obuhonia bwa Wele.’ ”
7 Wasungila lituli liali nelichile okhupatisibwa ni naye ari, “Enywe ba olwibulo lwa chikhilakhima, wina wamusungila ari mwilukhe esinyaasio sia Wele silechanga? 8 Okhubirira mubikholwa bienyu, mwechesie muri mwayekanila obwoni bwenyu. Mukhebaasia muri, ‘Efwe khubeele nende Aburahamu khuli papa wefu.’ Sikila emusunjila endi Wele anyala okhukhola amachina kano kaakwa abana ba Aburahamu. 9 Ehaywa yirekekhe okhurema emisaala nende emisi kiakio. Omusala kukharaakho amatunda amalayi ta kukharemwe mani kusukunwe mu mulilo.”
10 Abandu balia bamureeba bari, “Nono khukhole sina?”
11 Khandi wakalusia ari, “Omundu wuli nende chingubo chibili akabe yindala khu wukhali nayo ta, wuli nende esiakhulia yeesi akhole ario.”
12 Abasololi ba emirulo boosi beecha okhupatisibwa, bamureeba bari, “Omwechesi, khukhole sina?”
13 Wabakalusia wasunga ari, “Mukhasolola okhubira esikelo sia mwenyakha okhusolala ta.” 14 Abasikari boosi bamureeba bari, “Efwe nafwe khukhole sina?” Wabakalusia wasunga ari, “Mukhanuula yesi yesi chisendi khulwa okhumurikhirisia naho mumurekho ka akhakholile ta. Munyalikhe nende omurungo kwenyu.”
15 Abandu bali balindile okhulengela kalekholekha, barakikha okhwibaasia mumioyo kiabo niiba Yohana niye Kristo. 16 Yohana wasunga ari, “Esie endamupatiisianga nende amachi. Nebuchwa Omundu wuwo wulecha yinyuma wanje, wuli nende obunyali okhuukhila esie, wa esie ekholaana okhwinama hasi engangulule chiisia cha ebiraro biibie ta. Niye akhamupatiisie nende Roho Omutakatifu nende omulilo. 17 Wutilile esindu sia okhubisia yingano, ayibuusie khandi ayibunge musiachi, mani asambe omukhuchi nende omulilo kukhasimanga ta.” 18 Warumikhila chinjila chinyinji okhubatinyilisia nende okhubelwaachila likhuwa lilayi.
19 Halali Yohana wakondekhela omwami Heroti sikila yali wubukuule Herotia, mukha waandaye, nende amabi kandi koosi ka yali nakholile. 20 Halali Heroti watasa obubi khu mabi khulwa okhutiila Yohana mani wamura musiboe.
