32Petulo na weyawe nawadotwa ni ntongo, mna niyo wenuka nakuwona ukulu wa Yesu na wantu waidi wachimale naye.
33Wadya wantu weze wamwase Yesu, Petulo amgamba, “Zumbe, utana wani uno wihano! Nachizenge mahema matatu, dimwenga dyako, dimwenga dya Musa na dimwenga dya Eliya.” Hamanyaga vitendese chiya akutamwila.

59Amgamba mntu mtuhu, “Nitimila.” Mna yudya mntu agamba “Zumbe, ndakunileka nuye hamhambe tate.”
60Yesu ahitula, “Waleke wabanike wahambe wabanike wawo. Wite ukalonge Useuta wa Chohile.”
61Mtuhu naho agamba, “Zumbe, nahutimile, mna ndakunileka nite halage kukaya kwangu.”
62Yesu amgamba, “Yoyose akukonga kutoza jembe niyo ajendeleza kusinya kunyuma hakuwagila ko Useuta wa Chohile.”
