Seni Kokkot mi Pin
Poun ewe Samon mi emwenikemi. Ren “kokkot mi pin,” I mi nom non tichikin manauemi pwan non ekkewe mettoch mi auchea non manauemi.

“Nupwen a tonong non ewe teninimw i a emon echik, iwe a apasa ngeni emon mwan: Kose mochen ngeni emon noun Kot chon angang mi tipetekison och mettoch pwe epwe mwongo?
“Iwe ewe mwan a apasa ngeni: “Ngang emon chon Nifai, iwe ua sinei pwe en emon soufosun Kot mi fel, pun en ewe mwan ewe chon nang a apasa usun me non ew nemwaswpwi: Kopwe etiwa.”

“Iei minne ewe Samon a kouno ne tumunur me ren an manaman mi amwarar me mi nap seni meinisin, pun ra fen turunong non ew nikinikin nukunukumang me anoninen.”
Met meinisin ewe Samon a tingorei kich esap pungun ifa usun pochokunach, ifa usun wenecharach, ika met kich mi sinei. Ekieki usun Saul i ewe Samon a akounoi me won ewe aan ngeni Damascus.
