NgokukaMarku 3:1-5

Khona wabuye wangena esinagogeni.* Kwakukhona lapho umuntu onesandla esishwabeneyo. Bamqaphela ukuba uzakumphilisa yini ngesabatha, ukuze bambeke icala. Wathi kumuntu onesandla esishwabeneyo: “Sukuma, ume phakathi.” Wayesethi kubo: “Kuvunyelwe ngesabatha ukwenza okuhle noma okubi yini, ukusindisa umuntu noma ukumbulala na?” Kepha bathula. Waqalaza ebabuka ngokuthukuthela, edabukile ngobulukhuni benhliziyo yabo; wayesethi kulowo muntu: “Yelula isandla.” Waselula, saphiliswa isandla sakhe.
