27 Yeha, nina babhali, baFarisi, bahanahanisindini! Ngokuba nifana namangcwaba aqatywe ifutha, athi abonakale emahle okunene ngaphandle, kanti ngaphakathi azele ngamathambo abafileyo nokungcola konke.
28 Ngokukwanjalo nani ngaphandle okunene nibonakala kubantu ningamalungisa, kanti ngaphakathi nizele luhanahaniso nokuchasene nomthetho.
29 Yeha, nina babhali, baFarisi, bahanahanisindini! Ngokuba niwakha amangcwaba abaprofeti, nivathise amangcwaba amalungisa,
30 nithi, Ukuba sasikho thina ngemihla yoobawo, singe singabanga nabudlelane nabo ngegazi labaprofeti.
31 Ngoko niyangqina kwanina, ukuba ningoonyana babo bábulala abaprofeti.
32 Wuzaliseni kambe nani umlinganisela wooyihlo.
33 Zinyokandini, nzalandini yamarhamba, ningáthini na ukuwusaba umgwebo wesihogo?
