1Baada ya kusema yale aliyotaka watu wasikie, Yesu alikwenda Kafarnaumu.

2Huko kulikuwa na jemadari mmoja Mroma ambaye alikuwa na mtumishi wake aliyempenda sana. Huyu mtumishi alikuwa mgonjwa karibu kufa.

3Yule jemadari aliposikia habari za Yesu, aliwatuma wazee fulani Wayahudi waende kumwomba aje amponye mtumishi wake.

4Walipofika kwa Yesu, walimsihi sana, wakasema: “Huyu anastahili afanyiwe jambo hilo,

6Basi, Yesu akaenda pamoja nao. Alipokuwa karibu kufika nyumbani kwa yule jemadari Mroma, yule jemadari aliwatuma marafiki zake wamwambie Yesu: “Bwana, usijisumbue zaidi, maana mimi sistahili uingie nyumbani mwangu.

7Ndio maana sikujiona nastahili hata kuja kwako; amuru tu, na mtumishi wangu atapona.

8Mimi pia ni mtu niliye chini ya mamlaka, na ninao askari chini yangu. Namwambia mmoja, Nenda!, naye huenda; namwambia mwingine, Njoo! naye huja; na nikimwambia mtumishi wangu, Fanya hiki!, hufanya.”

9Yesu aliposikia hayo, alishangaa; halafu akauelekea ule umati wa watu uliokuwa unamfuata, akasema, “Sijaona imani kubwa namna hii hata katika Israeli.”

10Wale watu walipowasili nyumbani walimkuta yule mtumishi hajambo kabisa.

11Baadaye kidogo Yesu alikwenda katika mji mmoja uitwao Naini, na wafuasi wake pamoja na kundi kubwa la watu waliandamana naye.

12Basi, alipokuwa anakaribia lango la mji, walitokea watu wamebeba maiti ya kijana mmoja, mtoto wa pekee wa mama mjane. Watu wengi wa mji ule walikuwa pamoja na huyo mama.

13Bwana alipomwona mama huyo, alimwonea huruma, akamwambia, “Usilie.”

14Kisha akaenda, akaligusa lile jeneza, na wale waliokuwa wanalichukua wakasimama. Halafu akasema, “Kijana! Nakuamuru, amka!”

15Yule aliyekufa akaketi, akaanza kuongea. Na Yesu akamkabidhi kwa mama yake.

16Watu wote walishikwa na hofu, wakawa wanamtukuza Mungu wakisema: “Nabii mkuu ametokea kati yetu. Mungu amekuja kuwakomboa watu wake.”

18Wanafunzi wa Yohane walimpa habari Yohane juu ya mambo hayo yote. Naye Yohane, baada ya kuwaita wawili kati ya wanafunzi wake,

20Wale wanafunzi walipomfikia Yesu wakamwambia, “Yohane Mbatizaji ametutuma kwako tukuulize: Wewe ndiye yule ajaye, au tumtazamie mwingine?”

21Wakati huohuo, Yesu alikuwa anawaponya watu wengi waliokuwa wanateseka kwa magonjwa na waliopagawa na pepo wabaya, akawawezesha vipofu wengi kuona tena.

22Basi, Yesu akawajibu, “Nendeni mkamwambie Yohane yale mliyojionea na kuyasikia: vipofu wanaona, viwete wanatembea, wenye ukoma wanatakaswa, viziwi wanasikia, wafu wanafufuliwa, na maskini wanahubiriwa Habari njema.

24Hapo wajumbe wa Yohane walipokwisha kwenda zao, Yesu alianza kuyaambia makundi ya watu juu ya Yohane: “Mlikwenda kule jangwani, hivi mlitaka kuona kitu gani? Mlitaka kuona unyasi unaotikiswa na upepo?

28Yesu akamalizia kwa kusema, “Nawaambieni, kati ya binadamu wote hakuna aliye mkubwa zaidi kuliko Yohane Mbatizaji. Hata hivyo, yule aliye mdogo kabisa katika ufalme wa Mungu ni mkubwa zaidi kuliko yeye.”

36Mfarisayo mmoja alimwalika Yesu kula chakula nyumbani kwake. Akaingia nyumbani mwa huyo Mfarisayo, akakaa kula chakula.

37Basi, katika mji ule kulikuwa na mama mmoja aliyekuwa anaishi maisha mabaya. Alipopata habari kwamba Yesu yuko nyumbani kwa huyo Mfarisayo, alichukua chupa ya alabasta yenye marashi.
