le cecmu cu se pagbu mi

corresponds to what I think the first sentence is trying for.

The "intent" (however sloppy) was
le cecmu cu gunma mi joi da    (unless I am the only component of the mass).
but I believe current thinking would make it
le cecmu cu gunma mi ce da

I don't think that the lu'i is required, and it seems odd with no type-conversion and only 2 "members" listed.
