Kupanda kutero tibalalikana pa dziko lonse lapansi.”
5 Koma Yehova anatsika kudzaona mzindawo ndi nsanja imene anthu aja ankayimanga. 6 Yehova anati, “Anthuwa ndi amodzi, ndipo ali ndi chiyankhulo chimodzi. Izi akuchitazi nʼchiyambi chabe cha zomwe akufuna kukwaniritsa kuchita. 7 Tiyeni titsikireko tikasokoneze chiyankhulo chawo kuti asamamvetsetsane.”
