21 Zvichakadaro, vanhu vakanga vakamirira Zekaria vakashamiswa kuti akanga atora nguva yakareba kudai seiko ari mutemberi.
Ka lobakanyana kokoano ya batho kwa ntle ba bo ba letile Sakarea go boa, ebile ba gakgametse gore ke eng fa a diegile.

Mme Marea a re, “Ke motlhanka wa Morena e bile ke batla go dira sengwe le sengwe se o se batlang. A sengwe le sengwe se o se buileng se diragale.” Hong moengele a nyelela.
39 Panguva iyoyo Maria akagadzirira ndokukurumidza kuenda kune rimwe guta romunyika yezvikomo yeJudhea,
Morago ga malatsi a se kae Marea a itlhaganelela kwa makhubung a Judea kwa motseng o Sakarea o neng a nna mo go one, go etela Elisabetha.
