“Una nɔ mɛmba se a briŋ kol at kam na [di] wɔl, a nɔ briŋ kol at kam, a briŋ [wɔ].”—MATYU 10:34.
1, 2. (a) Uskayn pis wi go gɛt naw? (b) Wetin mek i nɔ pɔsibul naw fɔ mek wi gɛt tru tru pis? (Luk di pikchɔ nia dis atikul in taytul.)
WI ƆL want pis na wi layf, ɛn wi want fɔ avɔyd ɛnitin we de mek wi wɔri.
