Hapazovi nechinhu munyika muno chinokwanisa kutikurira.”7

“Aiva ani uyu Murume wokusuwa, wakaziva kurwadziwa kukurusa kwewafirwa? Ndianiko uyo Mambo wokubwinya, Jehova wehondo? Ndiye Tenzi wedu. Ndiye Muponesi wedu Mwanakomana waMwari. Ndiye Muvambi weRuponeso rwedu. Anodaidza, ‘Nditevere.’ Anoraira, “Endai, mundoita saizvozvo? Anoteterera, ‘Chengetai mirairo yangu.’

“Ngatimutevere. Ngatitevere muenzaniso Wake. Ngatitevere mashoko Ake. Nokuita kudaro, tinopa kwaAri chipo chehumwari cherutendo.”8
