It is understandable, therefore, that many modern versions of the Bible (e.g. the N.I.V.) rarely use the word 'soul', translating it instead as 'you' or 'the person'.
Kwa hiyo nafsi au Roho ni'wewe’ au mambo yote yanayomfanya kuitwa mtu. Inaeleweka, basi, ya tafsiri tulizo nazo Afrika ya Mashariki (U.V) inatumia neno'nafsi’ mara nyingi badala ya neno'Wewe’ au'Mtu’.
