11 Dimi lambodjanga nto dia naka onto ɔmɔtshi ambɔnyɔla didjango nɛ, wayonya osembe oma lo luudu lande, ko mbohanɛ lɔkɔ, ndo luudu lande layonga nkomba k’anto tshɛ* l’ɔtɛ wa kɔlɔ kɛsɔ.
12 Nzambi lakasɔnɛ dihole sɔ+ dikambo dia lokombo lande kalanya nkumekanga tshɛ ndo onto tshɛ layonyiya lonya lande dia mɔnyɔla didjango nɛ ko nde ndanya luudu la Nzambi lele la Jɛrusalɛma. Dimi Dariyo kambodja didjango nɛ. Dialɛmiyame aha la ntshimbatshimba.”

16 Oma laasɔ, ase Isariyɛlɛ, ɛlɔmbɛdi, ase Lɛwi+ ndo anto akina tshɛ waki ntondo lo lɔhɔmbɔ wakasale osapwelo wa luudu la Nzambi la ɔngɛnɔngɛnɔ tshɛ.
