Example: NO rĩrĩ, ariũ a Ithe witũ, ha ũhoro wa mahinda na ciathĩ-rĩ, mũtirĩ na bata mũtinde mũkĩandĩkĩrũo. (Concerning times and seasons, brothers, you have no need for anything to be written to you. Mt 24:36–45.); Nake akĩmera, Ti ũhoro wanyu kũmenya ciathĩ o na kana mahinda marĩa Ithe witũ atuĩte na wathani wake mwene. (This echoes the tradition that the precise time of the parousia is not revealed to human beings; cf. Mk 13:32; 1 Thes 5:1–3. He answered them, Mt 24:36; 1 Thes 5:1–2. “It is not for you to know the times or seasons that the Father has established by his own authority.)
