The First Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians 2: 1-5

2:1	Ndipo kenako, abale, when I came to you, announcing to you the testimony of Christ, I did not bring exalted words or lofty wisdom.
2:2	For I did not judge myself to know anything among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
2:3	And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and with much trembling.
2:4	And my words and preaching were not the persuasive words of human wisdom, but were a manifestation of the Spirit and of virtue,
2:5	so that your faith would not be based on the wisdom of men, but on the virtue of God.

The Holy Gospel According to Luke 4: 16-30

4:16	Ndipo anapita ku Nazarete, kumene adaukitsidwa. Ndipo adalowa m’sunagoge, monga mwa chizolowezi chake, pa tsiku la Sabata. Ndipo adanyamuka kuti awerenge.
4:17	Ndipo anapatsidwa buku la mneneri Yesaya. Ndipo pamene anali kumasula bukhulo, anapeza malo pamene analembedwa:
4:18	“Mzimu wa Ambuye uli pa ine; chifukwa cha izi, wandidzoza ine. Wandituma kuti ndilalikire osauka, kuchiritsa kusweka kwa mtima,
4:19	kulalikira chikhululukiro kwa amsinga, ndi kuona kwa akhungu, kumasula osweka mu chikhululukiro, kulalikira chaka chovomerezeka cha Yehova ndi tsiku lakubwezera.”
4:20	Ndipo pamene adapinda bukulo, anabweza kwa nduna, nakhala pansi. Ndipo maso a anthu onse m’sunagogemo anam’yang’anitsa.
4:21	Kenako anayamba kunena kwa iwo, “Pa tsiku lino, Lemba ili lakwaniritsidwa m’makutu anu.”
4:22	And everyone gave testimony to him. And they wondered at the words of grace that proceeded from his mouth. Ndipo iwo adati, “Is this not the son of Joseph?”
4:23	Ndipo adati kwa iwo: “Ndithudi, you will recite to me this saying, ‘Physician, heal yourself.’ The many great things that we have heard were done in Capernaum, do here also in your own country.”
4:24	Kenako anati: “Ameni ndinena kwa inu, that no prophet is accepted in his own country.
4:25	Zoonadi, Ine ndinena kwa inu, there were many widows in the days of Elijah in Israel, when the heavens were closed for three years and six months, when a great famine had occurred throughout the entire land.
4:26	And to none of these was Elijah sent, except to Zarephath of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow.
4:27	And there were many lepers in Israel under the prophet Elisha. And none of these was cleansed, except Naaman the Syrian.”
4:28	And all those in the synagogue, pakumva izi, were filled with anger.
4:29	And they rose up and drove him beyond the city. And they brought him all the way to the edge of the mount, upon which their city had been built, so that they might thrown him down violently.
4:30	But passing through their midst, he went away.
