NgokukaMarku 2:18-28

Abafundi bakaJohane nabaFarisi babezila ukudla; beza bathi kuye: “Yini ukuba abafundi bakaJohane nabafundi babaFarisi bazile ukudla, kodwa abafundi bakho bangazili na?” UJesu wathi kubo: “Abayeni bangazila yini, umyeni esenabo na? Bese naye umyeni bangezile. Kodwa zizakufika izinsuku, lapho umyeni ezakususwa kubo; yikhona-ke bezakuzila ngalolo suku. Akakho othungela isiziba esingakashukeki engutsheni endala, funa okusha okubekelwayo kuklebhule kwendala, kwande ukuklebhuka. Futhi akakho othela iwayini elisha ezimvabeni ezindala, funa iwayini liqhumise izimvaba, lichitheke iwayini, nezimvaba zonakale; kodwa iwayini elisha lithelwa ezimvabeni ezintsha.” Kwathi edabula amasimu ngesabatha, abafundi bakhe baqala ukukha izikhwebu behamba. Base bethi kuye abaFarisi: “Bheka, bakwenzelani ngesabatha okungavunyelwe na?” Wathi kubo: “Anizange nifunde yini akwenzayo uDavide mhla eswele, elambile yena nababe naye ukuthi wangena endlini kaNkulunkulu enkathini ka-Abiyathara umpristi omkhulu, wadla izinkwa zokubukwa ezingavunyelwe ukudliwa muntu, ngabapristi bodwa, wanika nababe naye, na?” Wayesethi kubo: “Isabatha lenzelwa umuntu, umuntu akenzelwanga isabatha. Ngokunjalo iNdodana yomuntu iyinkosi neyesabatha.”
