1422:14 Kbl 22:18; 24:13; 1Bk 18:10, 15Naye Mikaaya n’ayogera nti, “Nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu, nzija kwogera ekyo kyokka Mukama ky’anaŋŋamba.” 15Bwe yatuuka awali kabaka, kabaka n’amubuuza nti, “Mikaaya tulumbe Lamosugireyaadi, nantiki tulekeyo?” N’amuddamu nti, “Kirumbe obe muwanguzi kubanga Mukama anakigabula mu mukono gwa kabaka.”
