All who came [before me] are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.); Nĩ kĩ gĩtũmĩte ndegwa cianyu cieherio o kweherio ta ihaatĩtwo biũ? Itiigana gwĩtiiria, nĩ ũndũ Jehova nĩwe waciingataga; (Why has Apis Apis : the chief god of Memphis; the black bull honored as an incarnation of the god Ptah and, later, of the god Osiris. fled?)
