Depois ita harii uma aas ida, nia tutun too iha lalehan, para ita bele hetan naran boot. Nunee ita sei sai nasaun boot ida, para ita la bele namkari.”

5. Depois NAI Maromak tuun mai haree sidade ho uma aas nebee sira halo nee.

6. I Nia hatete, “Ema sira nee hotu rai ida, i uza lian ida. Saida mak sira halo agora nee, foin komesa hakat ida. Aban-bainrua, se sira hotu hamutuk hanesan agora nee, sira hakarak halo buat saida deit, bele.
