intambara cyangwa gutotezwa bakambukiranya inyanja ya Atlantika. Uko ni ko hakurikijwe

Kugira ngo bagere ku cyo bifuzaga, “bashimishwaga no kunguka duke baheshwaga

ubuzima bubagoye bwo mu butayu, bakavomerera igiti cy’umudendezo barira kandi babira
icyuya kugeza igihe cyashingiye umuzi kigahama muri icyo gihugu.”
Bafataga ko Bibiliya yose ari yo shingiro ryo kwizera, isoko y’ubwenge, n’ishingiro
