1: 0:00:00 (mesil, headache, fever, spirit comes inside pain kubi sindigee, skin sigarap/grilee, leg pain, skin pain, belly pain, diahorrea, skin cold sick, skin hot sick, ear pain, liver pain) 2: 0:00:48 (we don't know. We put some thinking and sickness comes. Our ancestors had this hevi, and we got their hevi, and we get the same sickness. If I ai gris things of a brother I get sick. If I steal something, or ground from someone sickness comes. If a brother has a hevi I support then - stand a post, I see this hevi. If I have disagreement with someone my bel will break and I'll have a hevi. If I leave good pasin hevis will come) 3: 0:01:50 (yes if I stand on poop a worm will get in and make me sick.) 4: 0:02:08 (yes, if I eat a sick pig I will get it's sickness. I could get it's sores or sigarap. I'll get it's sickness) 5: 0:02:32 (The leaders will tell me what to do. I confess to them and do as they say and we'll talk true. We get better and wanbel is there. We don't have doctors or medicine, this is the right way of doing it) 6: 0:03:15 (the man will talk and make things clear - confessing sin, or they will do as the leaders say and ask God for healing, that is the road. He gives his hevi to the leaders saying my bad thinking is like this, my bad deeds were like this, my worry is this it's all in the open now and I'm going to be ok.) 7: 0:04:05 (No I won't get his sickness. - he's referring to God as inda - we'll pray and ask God for wanbel and to finish the sick. We put it into God's hands)

1: 0:00:00 (cold sickness, hot head, stomach pain, fever, skin pain. skin pain gets big and kills people. Head pain hits us with sick) 2: 0:00:32 (if some of us have a hevi sickness comes. If we have bad behaviour sickness and pain come, head pain comes. If I don't have knowledge sickness comes. If I hit my sister? sickness comes. Leg pain is from not looking after legs. Stomach and spleen sickness is from doing a bad thing I shouldn't have done. These sickness get us and we die) 3: 0:01:19 (We don't know if we get sick from stepping on poop, but we do know that stepping on dog, pig or people poo makes our legs itchy) 4: 0:01:38 (It's like this if a pig is sick and dies people don't eat it. The pig's sickness might go to people and so we bury the pig. If it just dies, like it falls off a cliff or a stick shoots it and it dies we'll eat that) 5: 0:01:59 (if there's a big sick and the guy wants to get better we did bad behaviour, like using power, or taking things or just talking. We leave that kind of bad behaviour and become like children? We put the bad behavour under and the sickness will go and he'll get better. If go down and he goes down and we don't go with the hevi to the leaders our hevi will go bad the sickness will grow and we'll die) 6: 0:02:47 (if there's a sick person with us and he dies his sickness was bad. Our elders said that. A sickness like that we won't touch the person, just the strong people will bury them. The family won't touch them, they'll scatter)
