²⁰ Iye anafunsa kuti, “Koma nanga inu mumati Ine ndine yani?”

Petro anayankha kuti, “Mpulumutsi wolonjezedwa uja wa Mulungu.”

Yesu Aneneratu za Imfa yake

²¹ Yesu anawachenjeza kwambiri kuti asawuze wina aliyense za izi. ²² Ndipo Iye anati, “Mwana wa Munthu ayenera kuzunzika kwambiri ndi kukanidwa ndi akulu a ansembe ndi aphunzitsi amalamulo, Iye ayenera kuphedwa ndipo tsiku lachitatu adzauka kwa akufa.”

²³ Ndipo Iye anawuza onse kuti, “Ngati wina aliyense akufuna kutsata Ine, ayenera kudzikana yekha ndi kusenza mtanda wake tsiku ndi tsiku nʼkumanditsata Ine. ²⁴ Popeza aliyense amene akufuna kupulumutsa moyo wake adzawutaya, koma aliyense amene adzataya moyo wake chifukwa cha Ine adzawupulumutsa. ²⁵ Kodi chabwino ndi chiti kwa munthu, kupata zonse zapansi pano, koma ndi kutaya moyo wake kapena kudziwononga iye mwini? ²⁶ Ngati wina aliyense achita nane manyazi ndi ndiponso mawu anga, Mwana wa Munthu adzachita naye manyazi pamene adzabwera mu ulemerero wake ndi mu ulemerero wa Atate ndi angelo oyera. ²⁷ Zoonadi, Ine ndikukuwuzani kuti ena mwa inu amene mwayima pano simudzalawa imfa musanaone ufumu wa Mulungu.”

Maonekedwe a Ulemerero wa Yesu pa Phiri

²⁸ Patatha pafupifupi masiku asanu ndi atatu Yesu atanena izi, Iye anatenga Petro, Yohane ndi Yakobo ndi kukwera ku phiri kukapemphera. ²⁹ Pamene Iye ankapemphera, maonekedwe a nkhope yake, ndi zovala zake zinawala monyezimira kwambiri. ³⁰ Anthu awiri, Mose ndi Eliya, ³¹ anaonekera mu ulemerero opambana akuyankhulana ndi Yesu. Iwo amayankhulana za kuchoka kwake, kumene Iye anali pafupi kukakwaniritsa ku Yerusalemu. ³² Petro ndi anzake anali ndi tulo tambiri, koma atadzuka, iwo anaona ulemerero wake ndi anthu awiri atayima pamodzi ndi Iye. ³³ Pamene anthuwo ankamusiya Yesu, Petro anati kwa Iye, “Ambuye, ndi chabwino kwa ife kuti tikhale pano. Tiloleni kuti timange misasa itatu, umodzi wanu, umodzi wa Mose ndi umodzi wa Eliya.” (Iye sanadziwe chimene amayankhula).

³⁴ Pamene Iye ankayankhula, mtambo unaonekera ndi kuwaphimba iwo, ndipo anachita mantha pamene mtambowo unawakuta. ³⁵ Mawu anachokera mu mtambomo nati, “Uyu ndi Mwana wanga amene ndamusankha; mumvereni Iye.” ³⁶ Atamveka mawuwa, anaona kuti Yesu anali yekha. Ophunzirawo anazisunga izi mwa iwo okha ndipo sanawuze wina aliyense pa nthawiyi za zomwe iwo anaziona.
