| 7. | Kwasekufika iyezi labasibekela; kwaba lelizwi elivela eyezini, lisithi: Lo uyiNdodana yami ethandekayo; zwanini yona. |
| 8. | Njalo bahle bathalaza, kababe besabona muntu, kodwa uJesu yedwa elabo. |

| 30. | Basebesuka lapho badabula eGalili; wayengathandi ukuthi loba ngubani akwazi, |
| 31. | ngoba wayefundisa abafundi bakhe, esithi kubo: INdodana yomuntu izanikelwa ezandleni zabantu, njalo bazayibulala; isibulewe izavuka ngosuku lwesithathu. |
| 32. | Kodwa kabaqedisisanga lumutsho, besaba ukumbuza. |
| 33. | Wasefika eKapenawume. Kwathi esendlini wababuza wathi: Beliphikisana ngani endleleni? |
| 34. | Kodwa bathula; ngoba endleleni babephikisene ngokuthi ngubani omkhulu. |
| 35. | Wasehlala phansi wabiza abalitshumi lambili, wathi kubo: Uba umuntu ethanda ukuba ngowokuqala, uzakuba ngowokucina kubo bonke, lesisebenzi sabo bonke. |
| 36. | Wasethatha umntwana omncane, wammisa phakathi kwabo; wamgona, wathi kubo: |
| 37. | Loba ngubani owemukela omunye wabantwana abancane abanje ebizweni lami, wemukela mina; njalo loba ngubani owemukela mina, kemukeli mina, kodwa yena ongithumileyo. |
| 38. | UJohane wasemphendula, wathi: Mfundisi, sabona omunye ongasilandeliyo ekhupha amadimoni ngebizo lakho; sasesimenqabela, ngoba engasilandeli. |
| 39. | Kodwa uJesu wathi: Lingamenqabeli; ngoba kakho owenza umsebenzi wamandla ebizweni lami, njalo olamandla okukhuluma kubi ngami masinyane; |
| 40. | ngoba ongamelani lathi, ungowethu. |
| 41. | Ngoba loba ngubani ozalinathisa inkezo yamanzi ngebizo lami, ngoba lingabakaKristu, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Kasoze alahlekelwa ngumvuzo wakhe. |
| 42. | Futhi loba ngubani okhubekisa omunye walaba abancinyane abakholwa kimi, kungcono kuye ukuthi ilitshe lokuchola ligaxwe entanyeni yakhe, abesephoselwa olwandle. |
| 43. | Njalo uba isandla sakho sikukhubekisa, siqume; kungcono kuwe ukungena ekuphileni uyingini, kulokuthi ulezandla ezimbili usuke uye esihogweni, emlilweni ongacitshekiyo, |
| 44. | lapho impethu yabo engafi khona, lomlilo ongacitshi khona. |
| 45. | Njalo uba unyawo lwakho lukukhubekisa, luqume; kungcono kuwe ukungena ekuphileni uyisiqhwala, kulokuthi ulenyawo ezimbili uphoselwe esihogweni, emlilweni ongacitshekiyo, |
| 46. | lapho impethu yabo engafi khona, lomlilo ongacitshi khona. |
| 47. | Njalo uba ilihlo lakho likukhubekisa, likhuphe; kungcono kuwe ukungena embusweni kaNkulunkulu ulelihlo elilodwa, kulokuthi ulamehlo amabili uphoselwe esihogweni somlilo, |
| 48. | lapho impethu yabo engafi khona, lomlilo ongacitshi khona. |
| 49. | Ngoba wonke uzatswaywa ngomlilo; njalo wonke umhlatshelo uzatswaywa ngetswayi. |
| 50. | Itswayi lihle; kodwa uba itswayi lingelabutswayi, lizalivuselela ngani? Banini letswayi phakathi kwenu, njalo lihlalisane ngokuthula. |
