Ekkei chon nemenem, ra keran angei wiser usun chommong neich mi nom won ei rong ikenai. Ei poraus mi makk non ewe puken Matthew:
“Nge non ei atun ewe wa a towaweu non ewe noom, nge a nuponup ren ekkewe no pun ewe asepwan a kan pochokun.
“Nefinen kunok unungat me kunok wonu nesossor, Jises a fetato won ewe sat ren noun kewe chon kaeo.
“Iwe nupwen ra kuna pwe a fetato rer won ewe sat,… ra puchoruta ren ar nuokus.
“Jises a muttir kapas ngenir, ʻOupwe apinukunuk, ousap nuokus, pwe ngang ei.”
Peter a rong ena ponuen apinukunuk mi amwarar seni ewe Samon.
“Iwe Peter a kapas, ʻSamon ika pwe ennetin en ena, kopwe ereni ei pwe upwe fetano reom won ena sat.

A puchoruta, ʻSamon kopwe anisi ei.
“Iwe muttir chok Jises a eitieno poun o a amwochata i.”
