46 Ke kaloku babephikisana ngokuba nguwuphi na omkhulu phakathi kwabo.
47 UYesu ke, ezazi iingcamango zeentliziyo zabo, uthathe umntwana, wammisa ngakuye,
48 wathi kubo: “Othe wamamkela lo mntwana egameni lam, wamkela mna; nothe wamkela mna, wamkela lowo undithumileyo; kuba oyena mncinane phakathi kwenu nonke, ngoyena mkhulu.”
49 Wavakala uYohane esithi: “Mhlekazi, sibone umntu ekhupha iindimoni ngegama lakho, saza samnqanda, kuba akakulandeli kunye nathi.”
50 Ke uYesu wathi kuye: “Sanukumnqanda, kuba ongachasananga nani ungakuni.”
51 Yakusondela imihla yokuba uYesu anyuselwe ezulwini, wazimisela ukuya eJerusalem.
