7 Washumayela wathi: “Emva kwami kuyeza onamandla kunami, engingafanele ukuba ngikhothame ngithukulule umchilo wezicathulo zakhe.
8 Mina nginibhapathize ngamanzi, kepha yena uzakunibhapathiza ngoMoya oNgcwele.”
9 Kwathi ngaleyo mihla kwafika uJesu evela eNazaretha laseGalile, wabhapathizwa nguJohane eJordani.
10 Wanele ukukhuphuka emanzini, wabona izulu livuleka, noMoya ehlela phezu kwakhe njengejuba.
11 Kwavela izwi ezulwini, lithi: “Wena uyiNdodana yami ethandekayo; ngithokozile ngawe.”
12 Masinyane uMoya wayesemqhubela ehlane.
13 Wayekhona ehlane izinsuku ezingamashumi amane elingwa nguSathane; wayendawonye nezilwane; izingelosi zamkhonza.
