You can put {na'e bo} before the sumti:
na'e bo tu ba zukte lo selgu'a ca lo bavlamdei
tu ba zukte na'e bo lo selgu'a ca lo bavlamdei
tu ba zukte lo selgu'a ca na'e bo lo bavlamdei
But instead of {na'e bo lo selgu'a} and {na'e bo lo bavlamdei} you can
just say {lo na'e selgu'a} and {lo na'e bavlamdei}.
And instead of {zukte lo selgu'a}, just {gunka}, at least in the first
and third cases:
na'e bo tu ba gunka ca lo bavlamdei
tu ba gunka ca lo na'e bavlamdei
