Joni wakasandula wakati kuliboonse, “Imebo lwangu ndamubbabbatizya amanzi, pele kulumwi ulobuza ulanguzu kwiinda ndime, aboobo nsikonzyi nikuba nkwangununa misungo yansangu zyakwe. Uyomu bbabbatizya aMuya Uusalala antomwe amulilo.
17 Bhenebho bhashikamula nkubhato mmakono gabho, bhalipinga kubhata yalya yabho na peta, ngano bhakabhishe munngokwe na maashe gangali shindu nijoka pa moto gwangaimika piti piti.”

20 Kungai a Elode akuno bhalipunda kwitendekanya yangali ya mmbone, nigubhaatabhile a Yowana.
