6 Abeekubbemberi bʼe Sukosi ni bamukoba bati, “Mumalire okukwata oZebba nʼoZalumuuna kaisi tubawe ekyokulya?”
7 Awo oGidyoni nʼabakoba ati, “Kale, oMusengwa oweyatwezyesya okukwata oZebba nʼoZalumuuna, inywe twabakubbisya mawa agʼomwidungu nʼago agʼomukodolwa ni gabanyiira.” 8 OGidyoni nʼazwayo, nʼaniinaniina e Penweri, nʼabantu baayo nʼabasaba ekintu kinanyereekyo.
