Gbi ko lɛ, Zakaria yɛ sɔlemɔ shĩa lɛ He Krɔŋkrɔŋ lɛ eeshã tsofa-kɛ-ŋma ni bɔfo Gabriel ba eŋɔɔ. Zakaria tsui fã, shi Gabriel kɛɛ lɛ akɛ: ‘Kaashe gbeyei. Yehowa etsu mi ni mibakɛɛ bo sane kpakpa ko. Oŋa Elizabet baafɔ binuu, ni abaatsɛ lɛ Yohane. Yehowa ehala Yohane kɛhã nitsumɔ krɛdɛɛ ko.’ Zakaria bi lɛ akɛ: ‘Ani manyɛ mahe nɔ ni owieɔ lɛ maye?
