25. Wathi: “Uyayithela.”Esengene endlini uJesu wamandulela, wathi: “Usho ukuthini, Simoni? Amakhosi omhlaba athatha kubaphi intela nenkokhiso, kumadodana awo noma kubafo, na?”
26. Wathi: “Kubafo.”UJesu wayesethi: “Ngakho-ke amadodana akhululekile.
27. Kodwa-ke ukuba singabakhubekisi, yana elwandle, uphonse udobo, ubambe inhlanzi ephuma kuqala; wothi ukuba uyivule umlomo, uzakufumana imali; yithathe, ubanike, usithelele mina nawe.”
