2 Ke kaloku uYohane, eyive esentolongweni imisebenzi kaKristu, wesusa bababini kubafundi bakhe, wathi kuye,
3 Wena ungulowo uzayo na, silinde wumbi, kusini na?
4 Waphendula uYesu wathi kubo, Hambani niye kumbikela uYohane izinto enizivayo nenizibonileyo:
5 iimfama zibuya zibone, neziqhwala ziyahamba; abaneqhenqa bayahlanjululwa, nezithulu ziyeva; abafileyo bayavuswa, namahlwempu ayazishunyayezwa iindaba ezilungileyo.
6 Unoyolo othe akakhutyekiswa ndim.
7 Bakubon' ukuba bayemka abo, waqala uYesu wathi kwizihlwele ngaye uYohane, Náye niphuma nisiya kubona ntoni na entlango? Yabe iyingcongola na, izanyazanyiswa ngumoya?
