Kadi pamutu pa kulongesha mu nsunagoga anyi mu bimenga, Yone yeye uvua uyisha mu tshipela. Bantu bavua balua bafumina ku Yelushalema ne mu Yudaya mujima bua Yone abalongeshe. Uvua ubalongesha ne: bivua bikengela balekele malu mabi bua kusankisha Nzambi. Bantu ba bungi bakanyingalala bua mpekatu yabu pakumvuabu malongesha a Yone, yeye kubabatiza mu musulu wa Yadene.

Nansha Bafalese ne Basadoke bena lutambishi bakalua pabu bua kumumona. Yone wakabambila ne: ‘Bidi bikengela nushintuluke ne nunyingalale. Kanuedi meji ne: nudi bantu ba pa buabu anu bualu nudi nudiamba munudi bana ba Abalahama to. Abi kabiena biumvuija ne: nudi bana ba Nzambi to.’

Uvua musue bua bayidi bende bamanye ne: bua kusankisha Nzambi bavua ne bua kunanga bantu nabu.
