12:1	Panthawi imeneyo, Yesu anaturuka pakati pa tirigu wakucha tsiku la Sabata. Ndi ophunzira ake, kukhala ndi njala, anayamba kugawa tirigu ndi kudya.
12:2	Kenako Afarisi, powona izi, adati kwa iye, “Taonani!, ophunzira ako akuchita zosaloleka kuchitika pa Sabata.”
12:3	Koma adati kwa iwo: “Kodi simunawerenge zimene Davide anachita, pamene anali ndi njala, ndi iwo amene anali naye:
12:4	momwe analowa m’nyumba ya Mulungu, nadya mkate wowonekera, chimene sichidaloledwa kudya, kapena amene anali naye, koma kwa ansembe okha?
12:5	Kapena simunawerenge m'chilamulo, kuti pa Sabata ansembe m’kachisi amaswa Sabata, ndipo alibe mlandu?
12:6	Koma ndinena kwa inu, kuti wamkulu woposa kachisi ali pano.
12:7	Ndipo mukadadziwa kuti izi zikutanthauza chiyani, ‘Ndikufuna chifundo, osati nsembe,’ simukanatsutsa anthu osalakwa.
12:8	Pakuti Mwana wa munthu ali Mbuye ngakhale wa Sabata.”
12:9	And when he had passed from there, he went into their synagogues.
12:10	Ndipo tawonani, there was a man who had a withered hand, ndipo adamfunsa Iye, kuti amtsutse Iye, kunena, “Is it lawful to cure on the Sabbaths?”
12:11	Koma adati kwa iwo: “Who is there among you, having even one sheep, if it will have fallen into a pit on the Sabbath, would not take hold of it and lift it up?
12:12	How much better is a man than a sheep? Ndipo kenako, it is lawful to do good on the Sabbaths.”
