如果主今天回来，{先生J.L.B. Matekoni}想，他可能是一个机械师，他反映了。对于各地的机械师来说，这将是一个巨大的荣誉。毫无疑问，但是E会选择非洲：如今，以色列太危险了。实际上，对它的想法越多，他越可能选择博茨瓦纳，尤其是加巴隆。现在，对于博茨瓦纳人民来说，这将是一个奇妙的荣誉。但这不会发生，而且还没有任何考虑。主不会回来。不幸的是，我们有机会，我们没有做太多的事情。
(If the lord came back today, {Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni} thought, he would probably be a mechanic, he reflected. That would be a great honour for mechanics everywhere. And there is no doubt but that e would choose Africa: Israel was far too dangerous these days. In fact, the more one thought about it, the more likely it was that he would choose Botswana, and Gabarone in particular. Now that would be a wonderful honour for the people of Botswana; but it would not happen, and there was no point in thinking about it any further. The Lord was not going to come back; we had had our chance and we had not made very much of it, unfortunately.)
