¹⁶Mweni davajoveshi vandu vatangalili va Isilaeli na Bambu wawu Chapanga.

¹⁷Damuwombeli Bambu, kandi daghavi na mfuki na liwovi kucha Eliya mbuyi wa Chapanga. Davajoveshi pamu kandi vatati na vana, davawuyishi vandu vaveli na lukilu vavi na hoshu sha nyanyi kucha vandu vampikanisha Chapanga, davagoli vandu vayitandili kumuyanga Bambu.”

¹⁸Sakaliya amudashili makungu, “Dandivi na chiganu liki kwa afi? Nenga gogola nahau na mdala wangu kagogola.”

¹⁹Makungu kayangula, “Nenga Gabulieli ndumindumi wa Chapanga, ndi yandumili nyisi kavawombela achi chilongu cha nyanyi.

²⁰Kujumila ng'odu filongu fyangu, ponopa dawuvi ngadeta, mbaka lijuva lila afi dafigoleki na dafibwituki kwa chipindi chaki.”

²¹Na vandu vala vamvetileyi Sakaliya vakayikang'anikeyi, “Mbona kayikala nendu mula munyumba ya Chapanga?”

²²Pafumili panji kalemwa kudeta nawu vandu vala, akalangusheyi kwa mawoku hela na vandu vakacheyi Chapanga kamlangusha chindu paghaveyi munyumba ya Chapanga.

²³Chipindi cha kuyanga kugola chichuku cha kunyumba ya Chapanga payipelili, kawuya kayaki.

²⁴Pambeli Elisabeti mdala wa Sakaliya kapata yinda ayikalili pakaya myesi muhanu, kayidetela,

²⁵“Ponopa Bambu kang'onela lusungu, kang'ushila soni shangu kwa vandu.”

²⁶Mwesi wa sita wa yinda ya Elisabeti, Chapanga kamulayisha Gabulieli makungu ayendi Nasaleti mumbwani ya Galilaya.

²⁷Avelili na filongu fya kumuwombela mdadala muyenji litawa lyaki Maliya, nondi ya Yosefu, wa lukolu lwa Mutwa Dawudi.

²⁸Makungu kamuyendela na kumujambusha, “Hawije! Bambu kava na yuwi, kakugayila usangi!”

²⁹Maliya papikanishili filongu fya makungu kasisima munu kayihola, “Filongu afi fina mana liki?”

³⁰Makungu kamuwombela, “Kotoo kutila Maliya, Chapanga kakugayila usangi.

³¹Daumleli mwana mlulumi na yuwi dawumkemi litawa lyaki Yesu.

³²Mweni daghavi mkomi na dakemiwi mwana wa Chapanga Mkomi, Bambu Chapanga damugoli ghavi Mutwa kucha Dawudi mbuyi mundu.

³³Daghavi mutwa wa lukolu lwa Yakobi jola na wutwa waki daupeli ng'odu!”

³⁴Maliya amdashili makungu, “Milandu ayi dayivi wuliwuli, kunu nenga ngalihela kutang'ana na mlumi?”

³⁵Makungu kamuyangula, “Mfuki Mng'alili dakusunukili na liwovi lya Chapanga mkomi dalikugubiki kucha lisisi, ponopa mwana ang'alili dawoneki dakemiwi, mwana wa Chapanga.

³⁶Loli, hata Elisabeti mlongu waku vandu vadetili aweshi ha kulela, ponopa kana yinda ya myesi sita na mweni mgogolu nawula.

³⁷Kwa hela chindu Chapanga chalemwa.”

³⁸Maliya kayangula, “Nenga ndumindumi wa Bambu, chigoleki kwa nenga nga wudetili.” Pambeli yula makungu kawuka.
