21 Opo nee Petrus okwe uya, ndele ta ti kuye: “Omwene, olungapi ndi na okudimina po omumwatate oo ta nyono kwaame? Mbela olwoikando ashike iheyali?”
22 Jesus okwa tya kuye: “Ohandi ku lombwele, halwoikando ashike iheyali ndele olwo-77.
23 “Onghee hano, Ouhamba womeulu otau dulu okufaafanifwa nohamba oyo ya hala okuvalula oikolo novapiya vayo.
24 Eshi ya hovela oku i valula, omwa etwa omulumenhu oo a li e na oikolo yayo oitalenti 10 000.*
25 Ndele molwaashi ka li ta dulu oku i shunifa, omwene waye okwe mu lombwela opo ye, omukulukadi waye, ounona vaye noinima aishe oyo a li e na i landifwe po, opo a fute.
26 Onghee omupiya okwa wila poshi ndele te mu linyongamene* ta ti: ‘Lididimikile nge, ohandi ka futa oinima yoye aishe.’
27 Omwene womupiya oo okwe mu kenukila nokwe mu kufila po oikolo yaye, ndele te mu efa a ye.
28 Ndele omupiya oo eshi a ya pondje, okwa mona omupiya mukwao umwe, oo e na oikolo yaye yeedenari 100, okwe mu kwata noku mu ponda, ta ti: ‘Futa oinima yange aishe oyo u na.’
29 Onghee omupiya mukwao okwa wila poshi ndele ta hovele oku mu indila, ta ti: ‘Lididimikile nge, ohandi ka futa oinima yoye.’
30 Ashike ka li a hala, ndele okwa ya nokwe mu tulifa modolongo fiyo osheshi a futa oikolo yaye.
31 Eshi ovapiya vakwao va mona osho sha ningwa po, ova uda nai neenghono, ndele tava i va ka lombwele omwene wavo ashishe osho sha ningwa po.
32 Opo nee omwene wavo okwe mu ifana ndele ta ti kuye: ‘Omupiya ove omukolokoshi, eshi wa lilila nge onde ku kufila po oikolo yoye aishe.
33 Mbela naave kwa li u na okufila onghenda omupiya mukweni ngaashi ame nde ku fila onghenda?’
34 Opo nee omwene waye okwa handuka, ndele te mu yandje kovakeleli vodolongo fiyo osheshi a futa oikolo yaye aishe.
35 Tate womeulu naye ota ka ungaunga nanye monghedi ya faafana ngeenge keshe umwe womunye ita dimine po omumwaxe tashi di komutima.”
