Abigisha inyigisho ziyobya

1 Mwuka w’Imana avuga yeruye ko mu minsi y’imperuka bamwe bazimūra Kristo, bayoboke inyigisho ziyobya zikwizwa n’ingabo za Satani.

2 Bazaba bayobejwe n’uburyarya bw’abanyabinyoma bafite imitima ihuramye, ku buryo itakibashinja ibibi bakora.

3 Bazabuza abantu gushakana no kurya bimwe na bimwe kandi Imana ari yo yabiremye, kugira ngo abayoboke bayo basobanukiwe ukuri babirye bayishimira.
