Ngeci, zemeni busunga na kwoloka.’

Nange njiya.” 22 Co banu babangi na baka-mafuti ba nzili bakaija na kushakezeka Yehova wa maswalale mu Jelusalema na kulambelela Yehova ngwabo abazibile ngozi.’

23 “Yehova wa maswalale ngwendi: ‘Mu matangwa owo, banalume 10 ba kutunda ku bindaka byoshe bya baka-mafuti bakakwatelela ku mukanjo, eyo, bakakwatelela manene ku mukanjo* wa kaJuda oku bendeka ngwabo: “Tushaka kuya neni, mwafwa tunazibi ngwabo Njambi ali neni.”’”
