Kupitila mu lushomo lwabo muli njame, Lesa nakabalekelele bwipishi bwabo kwambeti bakabeko ne musena pakati pa bantu basalwa bakendi Lesa.’

Ndashoma kwambeti paliya cintu nacikaba cimo ca bintu ibi mbyobalabula kunyumfwa, pakwinga makani awa aliya kwinshikila mu musena wasolama.” 27 Amwe Bami ba Agilipa, “Sena mwashoma maswi abashinshimi bakulukulu? Ndicinsheti mwashoma.”
28 Popelapo Mwami Agilipa walepusha Paulo, “Sena mukacindi kang'anowaka obe ulayeyengeti ngaunsandula kuba muklistu ayi?” 29 Paulo walakumbuleti, “Mukacindi kang'anowa nambi cindi citali, ame ndapailinga kuli Lesa kwambeti amwe, pamo ne bonse balanyumfunga maswi awa lelo, ngababeti ncombele, uku nteko kwambeti ne njamwe musungwe ncetani ishi sobwe!”
