1Mi tingting gen long olkain pasin i no stret, ol manmeri bilong graun i save mekim. Ol man nogut i save daunim planti manmeri, na ol dispela manmeri i krai nogut tru. Tasol i no gat man bilong helpim ol. Na gavman tu i no helpim ol. Long wanem, strong bilong gavman i helpim ol man nogut tasol.

2Mi ting olsem, ol man i dai pinis ol i laki tru. Long wanem, ol i no gat hevi olsem yumi man i stap yet long graun.

3Tasol ol lain manmeri i no kamap yet long graun, ol i win tru. Long wanem, ol i no bin lukim ol pasin nogut ol man i save mekim long dispela graun.

4Na tu mi bin lukim narapela pasin. Ol man i save hatwok tru na ol i wokim olkain gutpela samting. Tasol as bilong dispela i olsem. Ol i ting long ol wantok i gat biknem na planti samting. Na ol i mekim planti wok bilong kamap wankain olsem ol wantok. Dispela em i longlong pasin tru. I olsem man i ran i go bilong holimpas win.

5Ol man i save tok olsem, man i sindaun nating na i no mekim wok, em i longlong man. Na strong bilong em bai i pinis na bai em i dai.

6Tasol mi ting, mobeta yumi gat liklik samting tasol na yumi bel isi. Nogut yumi mekim planti wok oltaim, olsem man i ran i go bilong holimpas win.

7Mi lukim narapela pasin i no gat as bilong en. Dispela pasin i olsem.

8I gat man i stap wanpis tasol. Em i no gat pikinini na em i no gat brata, tasol oltaim em i save wok wok, na em i no save malolo liklik. Em i gat planti samting, tasol em i ting dispela i no inap. Em i no save ting olsem, “Bilong wanem mi hatwok nating na mi no gat taim bilong amamas? I no gat man bai i kisim ol dispela samting bilong mi.” Pasin bilong dispela kain man i rabis tru na i no gat as bilong en.

9I no gutpela long man i stap wanpis. Sapos tupela man i stap wantaim, em i gutpela. Sapos tupela man i poroman long wok, orait bai wok bilong tupela i kamap gutpela moa.

10Sapos wanpela i pundaun, orait narapela i ken litimapim em gen. Tasol sori tru long man i stap wanpis na i pundaun. Bai i no gat man bilong helpim em.

11Sapos tupela i kol, orait tupela i ken slip wantaim, na bai tupela i no kol moa. Tasol sapos wanpela tasol i stap, olsem wanem bai em inap hatim skin bilong em yet?

12Sapos birua i pait long wanpela man, ating birua inap winim em. Tasol sapos birua i pait long tupela man, ating em i no inap. Sapos ol i tanim tripela string na wokim baklain, orait dispela baklain i no inap bruk kwiktaim.

13Wanpela rabisman o wanpela kalabusman inap i kamap king bilong kantri bilong en. Tasol taim dispela king i kamap lapun, na sapos em i no larim ol man i givim gutpela tingting long en, orait em i rabis king. Em i no winim wanpela yangpela man i sot long ol samting, tasol em i gat gutpela tingting na save.

15Mi tingting long taim dispela lapun king i dai pinis bai wanpela yangpela man i kisim ples bilong en na i kamap king. Na bai olgeta manmeri bilong graun i bihainim dispela nupela king.

16Em bai i bosim bikpela lain manmeri moa. I no inap man i kaunim ol. Tasol em bai i dai, na lain manmeri i kamap bihain, bai ol i no tingim ol bikpela samting em i bin mekim. Dispela tu i no gat as bilong en. I olsem man i ran i go bilong holimpas win.
