Iye yatuma lusango kuli Eliya ngwenyi: ‘Hamene, yena mufwa ngwe chize afwanga aprofeta a Mbale.’ Eliya yevwa woma unji, chocho yachinyina mu puya. Iye yalemba ngwenyi: ‘Yehova chishi kuhasa nawa. Ngweche ngufwe kwami.’ Ni kuhonga cheswe, Eliya yapomba mushi lia mutondo.

Haliapwila ayo kanafupu kungushiha.’

Yako hanga utongole Elisha asalakane mu chihela che.’ Hohene, Eliya yaya ni kulinga yuma yize Yehova amulwezele. Shina wakufuliela ngwe Yehova makukwasa muze mulinga yize iye makutuma kulinga?
