15 Opo nee okwa tya kuvo: “Nye ohamu ti aame lyelye?”
16 Simon Petrus okwa nyamukula ta ti: “Oove Kristus, Omona waKalunga omunamwenyo.”

22 Opo nee Petrus okwe mu ifana po ndele ta hovele oku mu hanyena, ta ti: “Omwene, ino popya oinima ya tya ngaho; ito ka ningilwa nandenande oinima oyo.”
23 Okwa punguluka, ndele ta ti kuPetrus: “Inda konima yange Satana! Ove endangalati mondjila yange, molwaashi ito diladila ngaashi Kalunga, ndele oto diladila panhu.”
24 Ndele Jesus okwa lombwela ovahongwa vaye ta ti: “Ngeenge oku na ou a hala okushikula nge, ne lixupule ye mwene nokuhumbata omuti waye womahepeko,* ndele ta kala nokushikula nge.
25 Keshe ou a hala okuxupifa omwenyo waye ote u kanifa, ndele keshe ou ta kanifa omwenyo waye omolwange ote ke u mona.
26 Otashi kwafa shike omunhu ngeenge okwe lilikolele ounyuni aushe, ndele ta kanifa omwenyo waye? Ile oshike osho omunhu ta dulu okuyandjela omwenyo waye?
27 Osheshi Omona womunhu ote uya moshinge shaXe pamwe novaengeli vaye, nota ka futa keshe umwe she likolelela koilonga yaye.
28 Oshili ohandi mu lombwele kutya ope na vamwe vomwaava ve li ofika apa itava ka makela nandenande efyo fiyo osheshi tava mono tete Omona womunhu te uya mOuhamba waye.”
