Munye kuphela omuhle, kodwa uma uthanda ukungena ekuphileni, gcina imiyalelo.” Wathi kuye: “Miphi na?” UJesu wathi kuye: “Yile: Ungabulali, ungaphingi, ungebi, ungafakazi amanga; hlonipha uyihlo nonyoko; wothanda umakhelwane wakho njengalokhu uzithanda wena.” Insizwa yathi kuJesu: “Konke lokhu ngikugcinile, pho ngisasalelwe yini na?” UJesu wathi kuyo: “Uma uthanda ukuba ngopheleleyo, hamba uthengise ngempahla yakho, uphe abampofu, yikhona uyoba negugu ezulwini, bese uza ungilandele.” Kuthe insizwa seyilizwile lelo lizwi, yahamba ilusizi, ngokuba yayicebe kakhulu.
