«Mu ke fidisa ntumwa ya munu samu na kuyidikila munu nzila tekila mu kwiza. Na mpamukunu, Mfumu ke kwiza na Yinzo ya yandi, Mfumu yina beno ke na kusosa. Ntumwa ya ngwisani yina beno ke na kuvingila, yandi yayi ke na kukwiza.» Ni Yave, Nzambi ya Binwani, me tuba yawu.

BSB:
“Then I will draw near to you for judgment. And I will be a swift witness against sorcerers and adulterers and perjurers, against oppressors of the widowed and fatherless, and against those who defraud laborers of their wages and deny justice to the foreigner but do not fear Me,” says the LORD of Hosts.
