NgokukaLuka 17:1-6

Wayesethi kubafundi bakhe: “Kungeze kwenzeka ukuba kungaveli izikhubekiso; kodwa maye kulowo ezivela ngaye! Kungcono kuye ukuba itshe lokusila ligaxwe entanyeni yakhe, alahlwe elwandle, kunokuba akhubekise abe munye kulaba abancinyane. Xwayani nina. Uma umfowenu ona, mkhuze; uma ephenduka, mthethelele. Noma ekonela kasikhombisa ngosuku, abuyele kuwe kasikhombisa, ethi: ‘Ngiyaphenduka,’ womthethelela.” Abaphostoli base bethi eNkosini: “Yandisa ukukholwa kwethu.” Yayisithi iNkosi: “Uma beninokukholwa okungangenhlamvu yesinaphi, beningasho kulo mthombe: ‘Simbuka, utshaleke elwandle,’ ubuyakunilalela.
