13 Minu kukolukila mu mbembu yi batu ayi mu mbembu yi zimbasi, vayi boti yisi ko luzolo, yidi buka gongo voti simbalu* yintula lusuku luphamba.
2 Ayi minu kuba nkhailu wu kubikula, wu kuzaba masuama moso manlongo, nzayilu yoso, mvandi minu kuba kiminu kilenda kuphanga kunanguna miongo ayi ku mitula va kibuangu kinkaka, vayi minu kukhambu ba luzolo, buna yidi mutu wuphamba.
3 Mvandi minu kuvana biuma biama bioso muingi kudikila bankaka, ayi minu kuvana luzingu luama loso muingi kuyinyemisa, vayi minu kukhambu ba luzolo, buna mamoso yimvanga masi ko nkinza.
4 Luzolo luidi mvibudulu ayi luidi mamboti. Luzolo luisi ko kiphala, lukinyemisanga ko ayi lukinangikanga ko.
5 Luvanganga ko mambu makhambu fuana, lutombanga ko mamboti mandi veka, lufika fuemanga ko, lusuekilanga ko nganzi.
6 Luyangalalanga ko mu mambu makhambulu masonga, vayi lunkuangalalanga mu mambu masonga.
7 Lunkuikamanga mu mambu moso, lumvingilanga mu mambu moso, ayi lunkindamanga mu mambu moso.
8 Luzolo lusukanga ko. Vayi nkhailu wu kubikula wala mana, nkhailu wu kukoluka zimbembu wala mana, ayi nkhailu wu kubaka nzailu wala mana.
9 Kibila tuidi mua ndambu nzailu ayi tumbikulanga to mua nkadu.
10 Vayi bo tuala baka nzailu yiduka, buna mua nzailu tuidi bubu yala mana.
11 Bo minu yiba muana kilezi, yaba kolukilanga buka muana kilezi, yaba tadilanga mambu buka muana kilezi, ayi yaba yindudilanga buka muana kilezi. Vayi bo yima konzuka, yibika zikhadulu zi bumuana.
12 Bubu tuisimmona ko buboti, kibila tuidi mu kutadila mu lumuenu luidi tutulu. Vayi kuntuala tuala mona buboti buka befu tuntalasana na mutu widi wufikama. Bubu, minu yizebi mua ndambu to, vayi kuntuala minu yala zaba buboti, dedi bo minu yididi wuzabakana buboti.
13 Zikhadulu azizi zitatu, ziawu zintatamana bubu: kiminu, mvibudulu ayi luzolo. Vayi luzolo lulutidi mu ziawu.
