1 Bafike oko kuYesu abaseYerusalem ababhali nabaFarisi, besithi,
2 Kungani na ukuba abafundi bakho basigqithe isithethe samanyange? Kuba abazihlambi izandla zabo, xa badla isonka.
3 Waphendula ke yena wathi kubo, Nani, kungani na ukuba niwugqithe umthetho kaThixo ngenxa yesithethe senu?
4 Kuba uThixo wawisa umthetho, esithi, Mbeke uyihlo nonyoko; wathi kanjalo, Omthethela okubi uyise nokuba ingunina, makafe ukufa.
5 Ke nina nithi, Othe kuyise nokuba kukunina, Iselingumnikelo kuThixo, into onge uba uncedwa ngayo ndim, úkholisile: akasayi kuba sambeka uyise nokuba ngunina.
6 Niwuphangile ke igunya umthetho kaThixo ngenxa yesithethe senu.
