| 27. | Lizwile ukuthi kwathiwa kwabasendulo: Ungafebi. |
| 28. | Kodwa mina ngithi kini: Wonke okhangela owesifazana ukumkhanuka usefebile laye enhliziyweni yakhe. |
| 29. | Njalo uba ilihlo lakho lokunene likukhubekisa, likhuphe ulilahlele khatshana lawe; ngoba kungcono kuwe ukuthi kubhubhe sibe sinye sezitho zakho, lokuthi umzimba wakho wonke ungaphoselwa esihogweni. |
| 30. | Njalo uba isandla sakho sokunene sikukhubekisa, siqume usilahlele khatshana lawe; ngoba kungcono kuwe ukuthi kubhubhe sibe sinye sezitho zakho, lokuthi umzimba wakho wonke ungaphoselwa esihogweni. |
| 31. | Kwathiwa-ke: Loba ngubani owala umkakhe, kumele amnike incwadi yesehlukaniso; |
| 32. | kodwa mina ngithi kini: Loba ngubani owala umkakhe, ngaphandle kodaba lokufeba, umenza afebe, njalo loba ngubani omthathayo owaliweyo uyafeba. |
| 33. | Lizwile futhi ukuthi kwathiwa kwabasendulo: Ungafungi amanga, kodwa gcwalisa izifungo zakho eNkosini. |
| 34. | Kodwa mina ngithi kini: Lingafungi lakanye; loba ngezulu, ngoba liyisihlalo sobukhosi sikaNkulunkulu; |
| 35. | loba ngomhlaba, ngoba uyisenabelo senyawo zakhe; loba ngeJerusalema, ngoba ingumuzi weNkosi enkulu; |
| 36. | njalo ungafungi ngekhanda lakho, ngoba ungelwenze unwele lalunye lube mhlophe kumbe lube mnyama. |
| 37. | Kodwa ilizwi lenu kalibe ngelokuthi: Yebo yebo, hatshi hatshi; kodwa okudlula lokho kuvela komubi. |
| 38. | Lizwile ukuthi kwathiwa: Ilihlo ngelihlo, lezinyo ngezinyo; |
| 39. | kodwa mina ngithi kini: Lingamelani lobubi; kodwa loba ngubani okuwakala esihlathini sokunene, mphendulele lesinye; |
| 40. | lalowo ofuna ukukumangalela lokuthatha isigqoko sakho, mtshiyele lesembatho; |
| 41. | laloba ngubani okubamba ngamandla ukuthi uhambe imayili libe linye, hamba laye abe mabili. |
| 42. | Mnike ocela kuwe; njalo ungamfulatheli ofisa ukweboleka kuwe. |
| 43. | Lizwile ukuthi kwathiwa: Wothanda umakhelwane wakho, njalo uzonde isitha sakho; |
| 44. | kodwa mina ngithi kini: Thandani izitha zenu, libabusise abaliqalekisayo, libaphathe kuhle abalizondayo, libakhulekele abaliphatha kubi, labalizingelayo; |
| 45. | ukuze libe ngabantwana bakaYihlo osemazulwini, ngoba yena uphumisa ilanga lakhe phezu kwababi labahle, anise izulu phezu kwabalungileyo labangalunganga. |
| 46. | Ngoba aluba lithanda labo abalithandayo, lilomvuzo bani? Kabenzi njalo labathelisi yini? |
| 47. | Futhi uba libingelela abafowenu bodwa, lenzani okukhulu okwedlula okwabanye? Kabenzi njalo labathelisi yini? |
| 48. | Ngakho lina banini ngabapheleleyo, njengoba uYihlo osemazulwini ephelele. |
