Ishe, Yayiro, arhacir’imanyire bufumu buhi akac’ihumirekwo ly’amubuka. Asengerera Yezu mpu amufûmize oyo mwana wage. Yene mwana agwêrhe.

Ababusi bage barhangâla bwenene: Yezu afûla oyo mwana nyere! (Marko 5:22-24, 35-42; Luka 8:49-56, NWT) Kurhangira olo lusiku erhi bakalabîrekw’oyo mwana nyere, banarhânye ebi Yehova abajirîre kugerera Yezu.
