“NaHumeli niYa enHobeni niyaLabisa yini na? xana aliHlanga lo’liSikinyisiwaku himHeho na? 8Kambi naHumi niyaBona yini? anHunu lw’aYambaliki awsakuSuleka na?

‘Labisani! ndaHsuma axiHsugnwa xaNga ayakuHsangela, lw’atakukuBekisela anDlela emaHlwini yaKu’ (Mal 3:1). 11NdiHlela mfuhsi ndi’u kuNini Exikahsi kala’baBhelekeliwiki hibabaSati, akuTumbulukanga lwe’nKulu kunaYohane amBapatisi; kambi lwe’nThsongo emFugnwini waTilu u nKulu kunayene.
12Kutani, kuSuka eminKameni yakaYohane kukota kuBa wsowsi, amFumu waTilu waPhangiwa: la’baPhangaku bawuKuma hinTamu. 13Hikusa kuHsehsiwi hibaProfeta Hikwabu niNau kuKo’ kuTlhasa Yohane. 14Kutani, loku niHsanda kumuTekelela, Yene u Eliya lw’atakuTa. 15Lw’aka nitinDlebe takuYingela, aaYingele.
16Kambi nditaFanisa naYini abHanu baLowu nKama na? BaFana nibAnana, la’baThsamiki emiBangwini yakuBhuthsana, la’baBitananaku nibaKwabu, 17baku, Hiyimbelelili kuNini hiwsiNtololo, anikinanga; hiBhi kuNini aminKulungwani yanKosi, aniDjilanga.
18Hikusa Yohane aTlhasili, naangaDi, naangaNwi; kutani baku’ U nimaNdiki. 19GnwAna‐wamHunu aTlhasili, naaDa, naaNwa; kutani baku, Labisani! dji Gugu, niPopyi, aXaka djabaHlengisi nibaHoni! Kutani abuTlhali bjaKombisiwi himiTihsu yaBone.”

25Hilo’ nKama Yesu aYanguli, aku,
“NdakuTlhangela, Tati, Hosi yaTilu nimiSaba hikusa uFihli lewsi kula’babuTlhali nila’bakuTiba, uwsiPfuleteli kula’baThsongwani: 26hiWsone, Tati; hikusa wsiHsandekili xiwsowso emaHlwini yaKu.
27Hikwawsu wsiNyikeliwili kuMini hiTati: anga kone lw’aTibisisaku agnwAna, loku angaBi Tati: anga kone lw’aTibisisaku aTati, loku ange gnwAna, naYene lwe’aHsandaku gnwAna kumuTibekisa kuYene.
28Tanani kuMini, ni’ Hikwenu niKahsatekiki, niBindwaku ngopfu: Mini nditaniWisisa.
29TiTekelani aDjokwe djaNga, niDonda kuMini; hikusa ndiHsulili, ndi nimBilu yakutiKwahsamisa; kutani nitaKuma akuWisisa kamaHika yEnu. 30Hikusa aDjokwe djaNga adjiBindi, ninHswalu waNga wuHehukili.”
