36. Wathatha umntwana, wammisa phakathi kwabo, wamsingatha, wathi kubo:
37. “Othe egameni lam wamkela noko amnye wabantwana abanje, wamkela mna; nothe wamkela mna, akamkeli mna nje, wamkela lowo wandithumayo.”
38. UYohane wathi kuYesu: “Mfundisi, sibone umntu okhupha iindimoni egameni lakho, saza samnqanda ke, kuba engenguye oweqela labafundi bakho.”
39. Wathi uYesu: “Hayi, ngeningamnqandanga, kuba akukho namnye unokuthi enze ummangaliso egameni lam, aze andigxeke.
