7 UFiliphu wamphendula wathi: “Izinkwa zawodenariyu* abangamakhulu amabili zingebanele, kube yilowo nalowo athole ingcosana.”
8 Omunye wabafundi bakhe, u-Andreya umfowabo kaSimoni Petru, wathi kuye:
9 “Kukhona umfana lapha onezinkwa zebhali* eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzana ezimbili; kepha kuyini lokho kwabaningi kangaka na?”
10 UJesu wathi: “Bahlaliseni abantu.” Kwakukhona utshani obuningi kuleyo ndawo. Ahlala phansi-ke amadoda, umumo wawo kungathi izinkulungwame eziyisihlanu.
11 UJesu wazithabatha izinkwa, wabonga, wayesezabela ababehlezi phansi, kanjalo futhi nezinhlanzana, njengokuthanda kwabo.
12 Kuthe sebesuthi, wathi kubafundi bakhe: “Buthani imvuthuluka eseleyo, kungachitheki lutho.”
13 Base bebutha, bagcwalisa iziqabetho eziyishumi nambili ngemvuthuluka yezinkwa eziyisihlanu zebhali* eyasala kwabadlileyo.
