Aale oyabe omwa mugalama wange Agali, amo mwiye ni nsunaku eibyaire.”

Nakwikiriirye okwingira omumwe era atyanu olwʼokubba amaite ati ali kida, ali kumbityangamu amaiso. Aale oMusengwa atulamule nze na iwe.”
6 Neye oIbbulaamu nʼairamu oSalaayi ati, “Agali omugalamawo ali mu bwezyebwo. Omukole ekyobona ekisaanira.” Era awo oSalaayi, nʼatandiika okumubitya bundi, era Agali nʼamwirukaku.

12 Era yalibba wʼekinabbiri nga tafugika ooti mpunda wʼomu kigona.
Yalibba mulabe wa buli muntu,

Era yalibba wa bulabe
