28 Khona apho kuya kubakho ukulila nokutshixiza kwamazinyo, xa nithe nabona uAbraham, noIsake, noYakobi, nabo bonke abaprofeti, ebukumkanini bukaThixo; nibe ke nina nikhutshelwe phandle.
29 Babeya kuza bevela empumalanga nasentshonalanga, nasentla, nasezantsi, bangqengqe ebukumkanini bukaThixo.
30 Yabonani, bakho abokugqibela abaya kuba ngabokuqala; bakho nabokuqala abaya kuba ngabokugqibela.
31 Kwangaloo mini kweza abaFarisi abathile, besithi kuye, Phuma umke apha; ngokuba uHerode ufuna ukukubulala.
32 Wathi kubo, Yiyani nithi kuloo mpungutye, Uyabona, ndikhupha iidemon, ndifinyeze iimpiliso, namhla nangomso; ndithi ngowesithathu umhla ndifeze.
33 Kodwa ndimelwe kukuthi ndihambe namhla nangomso nangolandelayo; ngokuba akangekhe umprofeti atshabalalele ngaphandle kweYerusalem.
34 Yerusalem, Yerusalem, ebabulalayo abaprofeti, ibagibisele ngamatye abo bathunywe kuyo! Kufuthi kangakanani na ndathandayo ukubabuthela ndawonye abantwana bakho, ngohlobo esithi isikhukukazi siwabuthele ndawonye amantshontsho aso ngaphantsi kwamaphiko aso, anavuma!
