| 20. | umwami akarakara akakubaza ati ‘Ni iki cyatumye mugomba kwegera umudugudu mutyo murwana? Mbese ntimwari muzi ko babasha kubarasa bahagaze ku nkike?’ |
| 21. | Akongera kukubwira ati ‘Harya ni nde wishe Abimeleki mwene Yerubasheti? Si umugore wamuteye ingasire yihagarariye ku nkike, akamutsinda i Tebesa? Ni iki cyatumye mwegera inkike mutyo?’ Nuko uzamusubize uti ‘Erega n’umugaragu wawe Uriya w’Umuheti na we yarapfuye.’ ” |
