²² Haciika mo i mana doona ka Paska bato din dumi haggoy za fondo kaakoy zamana ra kaŋ na fondo kaa Israyla se, sanda Israyla bonkooney jirbey kulu ra, wala Yahuda bonkooney wane.

²⁷Jehovha akati, NaJudhawo ndichavabvisa pamberi pangu, sezvandakabvisa Isiraeri; ndicharamba guta iri reJerusaremu, randakazvitsaurira, neimba yandakati pamusoro payo, Zita rangu richagarapo.
