45 UFilipu ufumana uNataniyeli, athi kuye, Lowo uMoses wabhala ngaye emthethweni, kwanabaprofeti, simfumene, uYesu unyana kaYosefu, lowo waseNazarete.
46 Wathi uNataniyeli kuye, Inako na into elungileyo ukuphuma eNazarete? Athi uFilipu kuye, Yiza ubone.
47 UYesu wambona uNataniyeli esiza kuye, athi ngaye, Nanko umSirayeli inyaniso, ekungekho nkohliso kuye.
48 Athi uNataniyeli kuye, Undazi ngani na? Waphendula uYesu wathi kuye, Phambi kokuba uFilipu akubize, uphantsi komkhiwane, ndandikubona.
49 Aphendule uNataniyeli athi kuye, Rabhi, wena unguye uNyana kaThixo, wena unguye uKumkani kaSirayeli.
50 Waphendula uYesu wathi kuye, Ngokuba ndithe kuwe, Ndandikubona uphantsi komkhiwane, uyakholwa na? Uya kubona izinto ezingaphezulu kwezo.
51 Athi kuye, Inene, inene, ndithi kuni, Emveni koku niya kulibona izulu livulekile, nezithunywa zikaThixo zinyuka zisihla phezu koNyana woMntu.
