28 Mwinoona toovi? Aarivo mwinyi mmote aariina aana awe awiri. Khumweettela otule wa mwanzo khumuuza yoori: ‘Mwanaka, etta wakhole khaazi leelo omashapa.’ 29 Khujipu yoori: ‘Akeepu!’ Ila khuupuwela khulawa okhola khaazi etile ooziweeyo. 30 Paapa otule khumwettela mwanawe otule nkina khumuuza nkhama etthiipo amuziyeeyo otule nkina.
