⁸Siikhu moote Zakariiya aari okhola khaazi yoohaakhimu wa tiini Nnyuupa wa Nnyizinku Yeruzaleemu, mwaasa yoori yaari zwaamu ya khuntti yawe okhola khaazi yaya etile.

⁹Nkhama etthiipo aazowereliyeeyo attunkhulu a tiini, ye aathawuliwe nkatthi wa nasipu yoori asala akhoza ovupa puuro ttakatthiifu ya Mbwana.

¹⁰N'oofiya wakathi wookhoza ovupa, atthu ooshi apale aari vaje aari ovira alompaka.

¹¹Aphano nlayikha la Mbwana khunteela Zakariiya nkhono-nlume vaalitaari onkhoziwaavo ovupa.

¹²Wakathi ye ooniyeevo nlayikha ntthile, khwiiya wooshanka na wa woova channu.

¹³Nlayikha khumuuza yoori: “Ohoove Zakariiya! Nnyizinku asiila lompa yawo; muukhaawo Elizabeeti onteela ompattha mwaana. Weeyo onteela ontthaja nzina la Yaahaya.

¹⁴Ye onttela wiiya furaha yootuveliwa wawo, atthu a waatta anteela ofurahela ovokoliwa wawe,

¹⁵maana ye onteela wiiya nttunkhulu mmakhono wa Mbwana Nnyizinku. Khanteela onywa viinyu wala onywa vitthu zoohapala. Onttela wiiya wa wiitaazaniwa Rooho Ttakatthiifu ari mwiirukulu wa mamaawe.

¹⁶Onteela owaatana atthu awaatta a Ezirayeele wa Mbwana Nnyizinku aya.

¹⁷Onteela operekhiwa ti Mbwana na onttela wiiya wookhomaala na woowahi nkhama napiyu Aliyaasi, yoori azukulise rooho za apaapa eeyane osiilana na aanaaya, na yoori awaazukuluse anamakhijili eettettise haakhi, toowo phi anttelaavo ozukulisa rooho zaya yoori ampokherele Mbwana ataaka.”

¹⁸Aphano Zakariiya khuuzela nlayikha ntthile yoori: “Kinteela ohakikhi toovi etthu yaya eto? Miiyo kooluvala na muukhaaka ooluvala.”

¹⁹Khujipu nlayikha liraka: “Miiyo ki Jipiriilu, kiniiya vamote na Nnyizinku, akiruma yoori kite kiwuuze hapari epi zooshapweya.

²⁰Wiiya khukhupaleeni mattakhuzi apa kiwuuziyeezo, onttela wiiya woohittakhuli mpakha siikhu zinttelaaye orettikhana vitthu epi. Zinteela orettikhana wakathi aya otthuupo.”
