16Kakala kosulukila kuja maganda gawadile nguluwe, lakini kuduhu munhu yamgwelele kinhu chochose cha kuja.
17Abaho kagelegeza na kulonga, ‘Tatangu kana wasang'hanaji wengi, woja mbaka wosigaza na niye hano nofa na nzala!
18Nosegela na kuchola kwa tatangu na kumulongela, Tata, nimtenda Mulungu nzambi, na vivija nikutendela gweye nzambi.
19Sifaya kukemigwa mwanago. Nhende kamba imoja wa wasang'hanaji zako.’
20Avo kafunga mwanza wa kubwela kwa tatake. “Viyakalile yang'hali kutali, tatake kamona. Kamonela bazi mwanage, avo kamkimbilila, kamuhagatila na kamnonela.
21Mwanage kamulongela, ‘Tata, nimtenda Mulungu nzambi, na vivija nikutendela gweye. Sifaya kukemigwa mwanago.’
22Lakini tatake kawakema wasang'hanaji zake. Kawalongela, ‘Lopoleni! Galeni kiwalo kinogile mumvaze. Mvazeni pete mkidole chake na vilatu mmagulu gake.
23Abaho choleni mumgale bofu da ng'ombe dinonile mudichinje, wose tuje na kudeng'helela!
