Ngakho kuyini? ixuku limele ukubuthana, ngoba lizakuzwa ukuthi ufikile.
Ngakho yenza lokhu esikusho kuwe: Sinamadoda amane anesithembiso phezu kwawo;
Bathathe, uzihlambulule kanye nabo, ube necala kubo, ukuze baphuce amakhanda abo, bazi bonke ukuthi akulutho lokho abakubikelwe ngawe; kodwa ukuthi lawe uhamba ngokufaneleyo njalo ugcina umlayo.
Mayelana nabezizwe abakholwayo silobile, saphetha ngokuthi bangagcini okunje, kuphela ukuba bazigcine entweni ehlatshelwe izithombe, nasegazini, nasekokuklinyiweyo, nasebufebeni.
UPawuli wasewathatha amadoda, kusisa ezihlambulule kanye lawo, wangena ethempelini, ukutshengisa ukuphela kwensuku zokuhlanjululwa, kuze kunikelelwe umnikelo wawo wonke.
Kwathi sezizaphela lezonsuku eziyisikhombisa, abaJuda beAsiya, bembona ethempelini, badunga ixuku lonke, bambamba;
ememeza esithi: Madoda akwaIsrayeli, sizani! Lona nguye umuntu ofundisa bonke ezindaweni zonke okuphambene nabantu, nomthetho, nalendawo, futhi engenisa namaGreki ethempelini, wayingcolisa le ndawo engcwele.

Kwathi uPawuli esezangeniswa enkambeni yamabutho, wathi enduneni yenkulungwane: Ngingakhuluma lawe yini? Yathi: “Uyakwazi ukukhuluma isiGreki na?
