1 kaPetru 2:21-25

Ngokuba nabizelwa khona lokho, ngokuba uKristu wahlushwa ngenxa yenu, enishiyela isibonelo sokuba nilandele ezinyathelweni zakhe. “Ongenzanga isono, akufunyanwanga nankohliso emlonyeni wakhe,” owathi ethukwa, akaphindisanga athuke; ehlushwa akasongelanga kepha wakunikela kuye owahlulela ngokulunga; yena owathwala izono zethu emzimbeni wakhe emthini, ukuze kuthi sesifile ezonweni siphile ekulungeni, oyena imivimbo yakhe naphulukiswa ngayo; ngokuba beninjengezimvu ezidukileyo, kodwa manje seniphendukele kuMalusi noMbonisi wemiphefumulo yenu.
