Ninga Mudazilembera Mateu 14:1-36
14 Pa ndzidzi unoyu, Herodhi ntongi wa Galileya, abva pinthu pikhacita Yezu,+
2 mbapanga anyabasa ace: “Unoyu ndi Juwau Mʼbatizi. Iye alamuswa muli akufa, na thangwi ineyi iye asakwanisa kucita pirengo pyenepi.”+
3 Herodhi* akhadamangisa Juwau mbamuikhisa nkaidi thangwi ya Herodhiya nkazi wa Filipi mʼbale wace Herodhi.+
4 Herodhi acita pyenepi thangwi Juwau akhampanga: “Mwakubverana na mwambo, si pyadidi tayu kuti iye akhale nkazanu.”+
5 Herodhi akhafuna kupha Juwau, mbwenye akhagopa mwinji wa anthu thangwi iwo akhaona Juwau ninga mprofeta.+
6 Mbwenye pa phwando yakukumbukira ntsiku yakubalwa kwa Herodhi,+ mwana wankazi wa Herodhiya abvina pamaso pa anthu adacemerwa pa phwando ineyi, Herodhi mbakomerwa kakamwe.+
7 Natenepa iye adumbira kuti anampasa pyonsene pikhafuna iye kuphemba.
8 Penepo, mwakubverana na pidampanga mai wace, ntsikana alonga: “Ndipaseni nsolo wa Juwau Mʼbatizi mu mbale.”*+
9 Mambo atsukwala, mbwenye thangwi ya kudumbira kudacita iye pamaso pa anthu akhadya na iye,* atonga kuti ntsikana apaswe nsolo wa Juwau.
10 Natenepa, atuma munthu toera kuenda kagwanda nsolo wa Juwau nkaidi.
11 Nsolo wa Juwau wabwereswa mu mbale mbuperekwa kuna ntsikana, penepo ntsikana aukwata mbaenda nawo kuna mai wace.
12 Buluka penepo, anyakupfundza a Juwau abwera mbakwata manungo ace mbaenda kaaikha munthumbi; pidamala iwo aenda kadziwisa Yezu.
13 Pidabva iye pyenepi, Yezu abuluka penepo na mwadiya mbaenda ku mbuto yakutali na anthu toera akhale ekhene. Mbwenye mwinji wa anthu pidabva iwo pyenepi, abuluka mʼmizinda yawo mbantowera na miyendo.+
14 Pidawambuka iye, aona mwinji ukulu wa anthu, iye aabvera ntsisi+ mbawangisa atenda onsene pakati pawo.+
15 Mbwenye pikhadoka dzuwa, anyakupfundzace abwera kuna iye mbampanga: “Kuno ndi kutali na anthu, pontho dzuwa ikudoka, pangani mwinji wa anthu umwazike toera uende mʼmamidzi ukagule okhene cakudya.”+
16 Mbwenye Yezu aapanga: “Iwo nee asafunika kuenda; apaseni imwe cakudya.”
17 Iwo antawira: “Ife nkhabe cinthu cinango pano kusiyapo mikate mixanu na ntsomba ziwiri.”
18 Yezu alonga: “Ndipaseni kuno.”
19 Iye aphemba anthu toera akhale pantsi padzulu pa tsanga. Buluka penepo, iye akwata mikate mixanu na ntsomba ziwiri, ayangʼana kudzulu mbacita phembero,+ pidamala iye kugwanda-gwanda mikate, aipereka kuna anyakupfundzace, anyakupfundza aiperekambo kuna mwinji wa anthu.
20 Natenepa anthu onsene adya mbakhuta, iwo agumanya mapindi adasala mbadzadza pitundu 12.+
21 Anthu adadya akhali amuna 5.000, kusiyapo akazi na anangʼono.+
22 Penepo, mwakukhonda dembuka, Yezu apanga anyakupfundzace kuti akwire mʼmwadiya toera atsogole kuenda kuntunda unango wa bara mu ndzidzi ukhapanga iye anthu toera abwerere kwawo.+
23 Pidamala iye kupangana mwinji wa anthu, Yezu akwira paphiri ekhene toera kuphembera.+ Pidadoka dzuwa, iye akhali penepo ekhene.
24 Pa ndzidzi unoyu, mwadiya ukhali kutali kakamwe na ntunda, iwo ukhamenywa kakamwe na mabimbi thangwi akhaenda kunabuluka mphepo.
25 Pa ndzidzi unalira madzongwe akumalisa,* Yezu aenda kuna iwo mbakafamba padzulu pa madzi.
26 Pidamuona iwo mbakafamba padzulu pa madzi, anyakupfundzace agopa kakamwe, mbalonga: “Ndi masomphenya!” Iwo akhuwa thangwi yakugopa.
27 Mbwenye mwakucimbiza Yezu aapanga: “Pfulikani! Ndine pano, lekani kugopa.”+
28 Pedhru antawira: “Mbuya, khala ndimwe, nditawiriseni ndibwere kuna imwe na padzulu pa madzi.”
29 Yezu ampanga: “Bwera!” Natenepa, Pedhru abuluka mʼmwadiya mbafamba padzulu pa madzi kuenda kuna Yezu.
30 Mbwenye pidayangʼana iye condzi, Pedhru agopa. Pidatoma iye kulirima akhuwa: “Mbuya, ndipulumuseni!”
31 Mwakucimbiza Yezu afuthula nkono wace, aphata Pedhru mbampanga: “Iwe munthu wa cikhulupiro cakucepa, thangwi yanji wapenula?”+
32 Pidamala iwo kukwira mʼmwadiya, condzi cathowa.
33 Buluka penepo, anyakupfundza akhali mʼmwadiya anʼgodamira mbalonga: “Mwandimomwene, imwe ndimwe Mwana wa Mulungu.”
34 Iwo awambuka bara mbatsama ku Jenezareti.+
35 Anthu a kweneko pidadzindikira iwo Yezu, aenda kadziwisa anthu onsene a pisa pya cifupi, penepo iwo abweresa anthu onsene akhabva kupha.
36 Anthu akhadembetera Yezu toera iwo akhuye kwene basi nkhomo ya nguwo yace,+ penepo onsene akhaikhuya akhawanga.
