If they steal, talk bad, talk behind backs, unfaithful to wife, if we do that and confess we'll get better. We'll behave then. Bad means they'll get sick and die.) 5: 0:03:40 (we're bad and we're good.

Steal food or a woman and you'll die.

A theif will eat all their food and things, and they'll have to confess. A good person's things will stay good and he'll eat and he'll give to hungry people. A good person gives us food, but a thief eats our food, later I'll go to my garden and be like "who took my food?" Stealing is really bad. I've taught my kids not to steal) 4: 0:04:04 (they'll be bad, a sickness will come and they'll need to make wanbel ) 5: 0:05:08 (lots, there's a few good people and lots of bad people. ) 6: 0:05:36 (I'm not going to say, I'm just here, others need to come and decide if I'm a good or bad man) 7: 0:06:04 (they're around. There are good people and bad people, there are thieves. The nambis people are bad. Lots are bad, some are good, the bad ones cut us with machetes, smoke and drink, we're afraid of them. We hobol can't say if we're good or bad. In Absokul some are good and some are bad. People everywhere, some are good and some are bad. IN England some are good and some are bad. Some white people are good and some are bad.)
