34 Abaho Yesu kalukema lunhu lwa wanhu na wanahina zake kawalongela, “Munhu yoyose yahalonda kunikweleleza, yaileme mwenyego na kuidikwa msalaba wake yanikweleleze.
35 Kwavija munhu yoyose yahalonda kuukombola ugima wake kowagiza, na munhu yoyose yowagiza ugima wake mbuli ya niye na kwa Mbuli Inogile koukombola.
