18“Yesi yesi oosuubila mu Mwana se akhalakilwa tawe, ne oyo okhasuubila tawe, aakhalakilwa khale, sikila se asuubila mu Mwana omuteelwa owa Wele tawe. 19Ne bukhalaki buli buri: Buwaanga bwecha mu sibala, ne babaandu basiima sisiilima khukhila buwaanga sikila bikholwa biabwe bili bimayaanu. 20Abo boosi bakhola bibiindu bimayaanu babiila buwaanga mala se bacha mu buwaanga tawe, sikila se benya bikholwa biabwe bimayaanu bibonekhe tawe. 21Ne kakhali abo bakhola kaali ng'ali beecha mu buwaanga nio buwaanga bwoole khukhwekesia buli, niko bakholile kali ke buriaani khu Wele.”

Lola luno yesi alikho abatiisia, mala buli mundu alikho amuloondakho.” 27Yoana aabakobosia ali, “Se aliio omundu onyala aaba ne sisiindu siosi siosi Wele ne akhamueleesie tawe. 28#Yn. 1.20 Enywe mwabeene muli baloli base nga naloma ndi, ‘Ese se ndi Kristo tawe, ne kakhali narumwa ebweeni wewe.’ 29Niye baakhiile niye omwene mwea; ne omusaale emangao arekeeresia, mala asangaala ne aulila kumumilo kwoyo niye baakhiile. Busangaafu bwase seesi bwichusibwa burio. 30Khukhwola niye atase khuuba omukali ne ese ndase khuuba omutiiti.”
