UJesu waphendula, wathi kubo: “Noma ngizifakazela mina, ubufakazi bami buqinisile, ngokuba ngiyazi lapho ngavela khona nokuthi ngiyaphi; kodwa lina kalikwazi lapho engivela khona lalapho engiya khona. Nina nahlulela ngokwenyama; mina angihluleli muntu. Nokho uma ngahlulela, ukwahlulela kwami kuqinisile, ngokuba angingedwa, kodwa mina noBaba ongithumileyo. Nasemlayweni wenu kulotshiwe ukuthi ubufakazi babantu ababili buqinisile. Mina ngingozifakazelayo, noBaba ongithumileyo uyafakaza ngami. Base bethi kuye: “Uphi uYihlo na? UJesu waphendula wathi: “Anazi mina noBaba; uma beningazi mina, beniyakumazi noBaba. UJesu wawakhuluma lawo mazwi ngasebhokisini lomnikelo efundisa ethempelini; ngoba ihola lakhe lalingakafiki.

UJesu wathi kubo: “Lokho enganitshela khona kwasekuqaleni. Nginokuningi engingakusho nokwahlulela ngani; kepha ongithumileyo uqinisile; futhi ngikhuluma emhlabeni lokho engikuzwile kuye.

Khona uJesu wathi kubo: “Nxa seniyiphakamisile iNdodana yomuntu, khona nizakwazi ukuthi nginguye nokuthi angenzi lutho ngokwami; kodwa njengoba uBaba engifundisile, ngikhuluma lezizinto.
