Maria na Martha
38
Ikawa Yesu na wanafunzi wake walipokuwa wakienda Yerusalemu, akaingia kwenye kijiji kimoja ambapo mwanamke mmoja aliyeitwa Martha alimkaribisha nyumbani kwake.
39
Martha alikuwa na mdogo wake aliyeitwa Maria, ambaye aliketi chini miguuni mwa Bwana akisikiliza yale aliyokuwa akisema.
40
Lakini Martha alikuwa akihangaika na maandalizi yote yaliyokuwa yafanyike. Martha akaja kwa Yesu na kumuuliza, “Bwana, hujali kwamba ndugu yangu ameniachia kazi zote mwenyewe? Basi mwambie anisaidie.”
41
Lakini Bwana akamjibu, “Martha, Martha, mbona unasumbuka na kuhangaika na mengi?
42
Lakini kunahitajika kitu kimoja tu. Maria amechagua kile kilicho bora, wala hakuna mtu atakayemwondolea.”
