12 Ukuba ndinixelele izinto ezisemhlabeni, naza ànakholwa, nòthini na ukukholwa, ukuba ndithe ndanixelela izinto ezisemazulwini?
13 Akukho namnye unyukileyo waya emazulwini, ngulowo yedwa wehla ephuma emazulwini, uNyana woMntu, lowo usemazulwini.
14 Njengokuba ke uMoses wayiphakamisayo inyoka entlango (iNum. 21:9), umelwe kukuphakanyiswa ngokunjalo uNyana woMntu;
15 ukuze bonke abakholwayo kuye bangatshabalali, koko babe nobomi obungunaphakade.
16 Kuba wenjenje uThixo ukulithanda kwakhe ihlabathi, ude wancama uNyana wakhe okuphela kwamzeleyo, ukuze bonke abakholwayo kuye bangatshabalali, koko babe nobomi obungunaphakade.
17 Kuba uThixo akamthumanga uNyana wakhe ehlabathini, ukuze aligwebe ihlabathi; wamthuma ukuze ihlabathi lisindiswe ngaye.
18 Lowo ukholwayo kuye, akagwetywa; ke lowo ungakholwayo, uselegwetyiwe, ngokuba engakholwanga kwigana loNyana okuphela kwamzeleyo uThixo.
