FIGOLI 26:24 85 FIGOLI 27:224 Pauli pafikili apa mukuyitasha kwaki, Festu kalakala,

“Pauli! Kuna lukwali! Kusoma koseku, kukutaya lukwali!”25 Lakini Pauli kadeta, “Mkomi Festu, Ndiva na lukwali

28 Agilipa kamuyangula Pauli, “Ukwihola kucha kwachipindi chidokwa hela dawugoli ndivi Mundu yindimju-milili Kilistu?”

29 Pauli kamuyangula, “Ngumuluva Chapanga kwachipindi chidokwa awu chitali, yuwi weka hela ha, ilakwa vosi yivambikanisha nalelu vavi kucha nenga lakiningajila mingongola.”
