Iyoobikka hizgi zaarides; 
«Ha7ikka ta wozinay camo qofaninne zuuzunththan kumides; gencecan ta woossiinkka iza kushey ta bolla deexxida mala dees. 
Izi dizasota eridaakko ay mala dosazinaashin; gede izi dizaso gakkidaakko ta ay mala ufayettaneeshin; 
ta maganaa ta izas shiishshanakkoshin; ta mishaza maarara ta izs shiishshanakkoshin. 
Taas imettiza zaarozakka ta eranakkoshin; tana izi ay gaanaakko ta eranakkoshin. 
Histtiin Xoossi ba gita wolqqara tana pirdandeshaa? Akkay; ta gizayssa izi ezgana. 
Heenkka suure asi izara marshettana; taas pirdiza Xoossay mernaas tana naxa kessana. 
«Gido attiin ta arshey mokkiza bagga biikko heen izi deenna; arshey wulliza baggaka simmiko iza demmanawu dandaykke. 
Izi gidikko pudehan ba oosaa ooththees; tani gidikko iza beyanawu dandayabeekke; duge bagga simmadakka iza demmanawu dandayabeekke. 
Izi ta tanggo ubbaa erees; tana izi paaccikokka tani worqqa mala geesh gida dishin izi tana demmana. 
Ta tohoti izi dosiza ogetara beettes; baleththon hadirsika ushachchika giikke. 
Tani iza azazotappe ke7ikke; iza qaalaakka ta miza qumappeka aaththada ta wozinan naagadis. 
«Izi barkka bana danday dees; izara eqettanay deenna; izi ba dosidayssa ubbaa ooso dandayees. 
Ta bolla izi qoppidayssa ubbaa polana; hayssa misatiza daro qofati deettes. 
Hessa gishshas iza sinththan eqoy keehi tana keehi yashshees; ta hayssa qoppada yayyadis. 
Xoossi taas wozinay daaburana mala ooththides; Ubbaa Dandayza Xoossay tana daganththides. 
Girdi gida dhumay ta ayfeta goozikkoka; sakkanna dhumay ta haasayontta mala tana diggibeenna.
