22 From ol stamba tingting we oli no save finis blong Lod bae oli gohed blong rol i go, kasem taem we evri promes blong hem oli mas hapen.

26 Mo i no gat wan we i mas talem se ol samting ia bae oli no kam, from i tru we bae ol samting ia oli mas kam, from Lod i bin talem samting ia; from aot long graon bae oli kamaot tru long han blong Lod, mo i no gat wan we i save stopem samting ia; mo bae i kam long wan dei we bae oli talem se i nomo gat ol merikel; mo bae samting ia i kam olsem wan dedman i stap toktok.
27 Mo bae i kam long wan dei, we blad blong ol sent bae i singaot long Lod, from ol sikret grup mo ol wok blong tudak.
28 Yes, bae i kam long wan dei we, paoa blong God, bae ol pipol oli tanem baksaed long hem, mo ol jos oli nomo klin, mo oli kam hae long ol hae tingting blong hat blong olgeta; yes, hem i long wan dei we ol lida blong ol jos mo ol tija bae oli girap long hae tingting blong hat blong olgeta, go kasem we oli jalus long olgeta we oli blong ol jos blong olgeta.

30 Mo bae i gat tu ol pipol we oli harem long saed blong ol wo, ol toktok olbaot abaot ol wo, mo ol graon oli seksek long ol ples olbaot.
31 Yes, bae i kam long wan dei we bae i gat plante doti samting long fes blong wol; bae i gat ol fasin blong kilim man i ded, mo stil, mo giaman, mo ol trik, mo ol fasin blong slip olbaot, mo evri kaen fasin blong rabis sin; taem we bae i gat plante we bae oli talem, Mekem samting ia, o mekem narafala samting ia mo i nomata, from Lod bae i sapotem olgeta olsem long las dei. Be sore tumas long olgeta olsem, from oli stap long konkon rabis ples mo long ol rop blong rabis fasin.
32 Yes, bae i kam long wan dei, we bae i gat ol jos we oli bildimap we bae i talem: “Kam long mi mo from mane blong yufala, bae God i fogivim ol sin blong yufala.”
33 O yufala ol nogud mo rabis mo stronghed pipol, ?from wanem yufala i bin bildimap ol jos long yufala bakegen blong kasem mane? ?From wanem yufala i bin jenisim tabu toktok blong God, blong mekem se yufala i mekem sol blong yufala i kasem fasin blong no save kam antap samtaem? Luk, yufala i lukluk long ol revelesen blong God; from luk, taem ia bae i kam long dei ia, we evri samting ia oli mas hapen.
34 Luk, Lod i bin soem long mi, ol bigfala mo gudfala samting long saed blong wanem we i mas kam i no longtaem, long dei ia, taem we ol samting ia bae oli kamaot long medel blong yufala.
35 Luk, mi toktok long yufala olsem se yufala i stap long ples ia, be yufala i no stap yet. Be luk, Jisas Kraes i bin soem yufala long mi, mo mi save ol wok blong yufala.

37 From luk, yufala i lavem mane, mo ol samting blong yufala, mo ol naes klos blong yufala, mo blong flasem ol jos blong yufala, bitim we yufala i lavem olgeta we oli pua, mo we oli nidim samting, olgeta we oli sik mo olgeta we oli gat hadtaem.
38 O yufala ol doti, yufala ol man we i gat tufes, yufala ol tija, we i stap salem yufala bakegen from ol samting we bae i roten, ?from wanem yufala i mekem tabu jos ia blong God i doti? ?From wanem yufala i sem blong tekem long yufala nem blong Kraes? ?From wanem yufala i no ting se praes blong glad we i no gat en i moa bigwan bitim harem nogud we i neva ded—from ona blong wol?
39 From wanem yufala i flasem yufala bakegen wetem samting we i no gat laef, mo gohed blong letem olgeta we oli hanggri, mo olgeta we oli nidim samting, mo olgeta we oli neked, mo olgeta we oli sik, mo olgeta we oli gat hadtaem blong pas kolosap long yufala, mo yufala i no lukluk long olgeta.
40 Yes, ?from wanem yufala i bildimap ol sikret grup blong yufala, blong kasem mane, mo mekem se ol wido oli mas krae long fored blong Lod, mo tu, ol pikinini we oli no gat papa o mama blong oli krae long fored blong Lod, mo tu, blad blong ol papa blong olgeta mo ol hasban blong olgeta blong krae long Lod aot long graon, blong pembak yufala wetem panis antap long hed blong yufala?
41 Luk, naef blong pembak i stap hang ova long yufala; mo taem ia i stap kam kolosap blong hem i pembak blad blong ol sent long yufala, from bae hem i nomo save gohed blong harem ol krae blong olgeta i go moa.
