Ikusolekesya kuli boobu kulibindeene ‘nkaambo banjibanji’ Jesu wazumanana, “bayooyanda kunjila, pele bayookakilwa.” Nkaambo nzi ncobayookakilwa? Wapandulula ategwa ‘mukamwini ŋanda anyamuka akujala mulyango amana bantu baime anze akukonkomona kabati, “Omwami, tujulile,” uyooamba kuti: “Nsimuzi nkomuzwa, amuzwe kulindime nywebo nyoonse nomucitazibi.” ’

Pele bantu bazwa “kujwe akumbo, akunyika akumabizi” inzya kuzwa kumasi oonse, “[ba]zookala mu-Bwami bwa-Leza.”

Kanjikanji ndali kuyanda kubungika antoomwe bana bako, mbuli nkuku mbwiifukatila twana twayo mumababa aayo, pele mwakaka. Amubone, iŋanda yanu mwiilekelelwa kiimwaikide.” Akaambo kakukaka Mwanaa Leza, cisi coonse cilisinganizidwe!
