Kepha uJesu wathi kubafundi bakhe: “Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Onothileyo uyakungena kalukhuni embusweni wezulu. Futhi ngithi kini: Kulula ukuba ikamela lingene ngentunja yosungulo kunokuba onothileyo angene embusweni kaNkulunkulu.” Sebezwile lokho abafundi bethuka kakhulu, bathi: “Pho, kungasindiswa bani na?” Kepha uJesu ebabheka wathi kubo: “Kubantu akunakwenzeka; kepha kuNkulunkulu kungenzeka konke.”
