Mani'zanti Mofo Nanekee 22
1 Vahe'mo'ma knare kagi'ma kami'zamo'a, rama'a fenoma ante'zana agatere'ne. Hagi vahe'mo'ma kagri'ma kavesigante zamo'a, goline silvanena agatere'ne.

7 Feno vahe'mo'za zamunte omne vahera, kegava hunezamantaze. Hagi zagoma nofi'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za zago'ama nofi'ma haza ne'mofo kazokazo eri'za vahe nemanize.
The rich rule over the poor. And the borrower is servant to the lender.

so that I might reveal to you, firmly and with words of truth, in order to respond about these things to those who sent you.
22 Zamunte omane vahe'mokizmi zana ohanareho, na'ankure zamagra zamunte omane vahe mani'naze. Hagi zamunte omanesige'zama atupama hu'nesaza vahera, keagarera zamavarenteta zamazeri havizana osiho.
Do not act with violence toward the pauper because he is poor. And do not weary the needy at the gate.
