Mathewu 13:18-23

Ngakho-ke zwanini umfanekiso womhlanyeli. Nxa yilowo nalowo olizwa izwi lombuso, engaliqondi, omubi uyeza, ahlwithe okuhlwanyelwe enhliziyweni yakhe. Nguye owahlanyelwa ngasendleleni. Kodwa ohlanyelwe edwaleni, nguye olizwayo ilizwi, ahle alamukele ngentokozo; Kodwa kanampande phakathi kwakhe, kodwa uhlala isikhashana; kuthi sekuvele usizi nokuzingelwa ngenxa yezwi, akhubeke masinyane. Ohlanyelwe emeveni nguye olizwayo izwi; futhi ukukhathazeka kwalesi simiso sezinto, nokukhohlisa kwengcebo kuminyanisa izwi, libe ngongatheli. Kepha ohlanyelwe emhlabathini omuhle nguye olizwayo izwi, aliqonde; ethela isithelo, enye ngekhulu, enye ngamashumi ayisithupha, enye ngamashumi amathathu.
