31 Aya ni amagambo y’umwami Lemuweli akubiyemo ubutumwa bukomeye, mama we yamubwiye kugira ngo amwigishe:+
2 Umva mwana wanjye!
Mwana wanjye nibyariye.
Mwana wanjye nasabye Imana nkongeraho n’isezerano.*+
4 Lemuweli we, ntibikwiriye ko abami banywa divayi.
Ibyo ntibikwiriye rwose ku bami,
Kandi ntibikwiriye ko abayobozi babaza bati: “Inzoga yanjye iri he?”+
5 Kugira ngo batanywa maze bakibagirwa amategeko,
Kandi bakarenganya aboroheje.
6 Ibinyobwa bisindisha mubihe abagiye gupfa,+
Na divayi muyihe abafite agahinda kenshi mu mutima,+
7 Mubareke banywe kugira ngo bibagirwe ubukene bwabo,
Kandi ntibongere kwibuka ibibazo bafite.
