ubuheruka, bamuhundagajeho imyambi igihe yari ahagaze imbere yabo abinginga. Abayuda
bari baranze kwemera kwinginga k’Umwana w’Imana; bityo rero kujya inama na bo no
kubinginga byabateraga gusa kurushaho kwiyemeza kwihagararaho kugeza ku iherezo.
Umurava wa Titus wo kurwana ku ngoro y’Imana ntacyo wagezeho, kuko Umurusha

Kutava ku izima kw’abategetsi b’Abayuda n’amarorerwa yakorerwaga muri uwo mujyi

Abasirikare bari barakaye bajugunye ibishashi by’umuriro mu byumba byari bibangikanye
n’ingoro y’Imana, maze bicisha inkota abantu benshi cyane bari bahahungiye. Imivu
y’amaraso yamanutse ku ngazi z’ingoro atemba nk’amazi. Abayuda ibihumbi byinshi

bisobanura ngo : « Icyubahiro gishize kuri Isiraheli ”
“Titus yabonye ko adashobora guhosha uburakari bw’abasirikare; yinjiranye mu ngoro
n’abakuru b’ingabo be maze bitegereza uko iyo nyubako yari iteye imbere. Ubwiza bwayo
bwarabatangaje, maze kuko ibirimi by’umuriro byari bitaragera ahera, agerageza ubuheruka
gukora iyo bwabaga kugira ngo batayisenya, nuko asohotse arongera yinginga abasirikare ngo
bahagarike inkongi y’umuriro bawubuze gukwira hose. Liberalis wari umukapiteni
w’umutwe w’abasirikare ijana yagerageje guhatira abasirikare be kumwumvira akoresheje
