22 Athi uYesu kuye, Andithi kuwe, koda kube kasixhenxe; ndithi, koda kube kamashumi asixhenxe aphindiweyo kasixhenxe.
23 Ngenxa yoko ubukumkani bamazulu bufanekiswa nomntu ongukumkani, owafuna ukubalelana nabakhonzi bakhe.
24 Kuthe ke akuqala ukubalelana nabo, kwaziswa kuye omnye onetyala leetalente* ezingamawaka alishumi.
25 Kuthe ke ekubeni engenanto yakuhlawula, yathi inkosi yakhe, makuthengiswe ngaye, nangomfazi wakhe, nangabantwana bakhe, nangeento zonke anazo, kuhlawulwe.
26 Wawa phantsi ngoko umkhonzi lowo, waqubuda kuyo, esithi, Nkosi, khawundenze kuhle, ndokuhlawula lonke.
27 Yasikwa ke yimfesane inkosi yaloo mkhonzi, yamkhulula, yamxolela ityala elo.
28 Uphumile ke loo mkhonzi, wafumanana nomnye wabakhonza kunye naye obenetyala kuye leendenariyo* ezilikhulu; wambamba, wamkrwitsha, esithi, Ndíhlawule ityala onalo.
