Ngiyilethe kubafundi bakho, kodwa bahluleka ukuyiphulukisa.” UJesu waphendula wathi: “Maye, kinina, sizukulwane esingakholwayo nesiphambeneyo; kuyoze kube nini nginani na? Kuyoze kube nini nginibekezelela na? Yiletheni lapha kimi.” UJesu wayeselikhuza idimoni, laphuma kuyo; umfana wasinda ngaleso sikhathi. Abafundi base beya kuJesu bebodwa, bathi: “Kungani thina singakwazanga ukulikhipha idimoni na?” Wayesethi kubo: “Kungenxa yokukholwa kwenu okuncane. Ngokuba ngiqinisile ngithi kini: uma ninokukholwa okungangembewu yesinaphi, niyakuthi kule ntaba: ‘Suka lapha, uye laphaya,’ iyakusuka, ngokuba akukho okuyakunahlula.
