Ma Ria lahenda nara, sama leoꞌ ao-inan fo Ria ator a. Ana tao na lahenda nara boe-boe tea-mepeꞌ, pake Manetualain kuasa Na. No ria na, ara dadi sama leoꞌ uaꞌ ma duiꞌ, fo nanaheke nahereꞌ de ratulu-rafaliao esa no esa, losaꞌ ao-ina katemaꞌ esa bisa noi-tao no malole.[f]

20 Emi mate sama-sama moo Kristus so. Boe ma emi ta nanahekeꞌ moo kuasa maiu-mahatuꞌ nai dae-bafoꞌ ia soꞌ. Ubeaꞌ taon, de emi bei tuka maroo dae-bafoꞌ a atoran rupa-rupa nara?
