Nlayo iwoyu nkulukugwi ndilo dama lamakahwa. 8 Nenguba ndimukwalila nlayo ntshwa, malebeswa awo anobong'wa munli ne mu muli, ngobe zhalima lopinda, ngono tjedza tje malebeswa tjotjipenya kale.

Ha mmwe eda shango, aatoda Tate. 16 Ngoti tjimwe ne tjimwe tjimu shango; njemulo dze mbili ne njemulo dze mesho ne kuzwida mubutjilo, akutodwa kuna Tate, koga ngekwe shango. 17 Shango inopela ne njemulo dzayo, koga iye unothama kuda kwe Ndzimu unotjilila tjose.
