The object of this parable is to show that God claims all that belongs to us as his property, and possesses an entire control over our persons and services; and, therefore, that all the zeal that may be manifested by us in discharging our duty does not lay him under obligation to us by any sort of merit; for, as we are his property, so he on his part can owe us nothing.
"Eshi hatu ka popyeni oshi li mouwa wedu lovakwashiwana aveshe, omo keshe umwe a hala edu lolukalwa, loku ninga mo okakunino, hano otwa pumbwa edu omo yo hatu dulu okutunga mo omatungo etu omolwouxupilo," osho Endjala a popya nomufindo.
