24 Nasebahambile labafundzi baJohane, Jesu wakhuluma nalesicumbi sebantfu mayelana naJohane, watsi: “Ngesikhatsi nisuka niya ehlane, beniyele kuyobonani? Beniyele kuyobona umhlanga upheshulwa ngumoya yini?+ 25 Beniyobonani vele? Beniyobona umuntfu lowembetse tingubo letinhle?+ Anati yini kutsi labo labembatsa tingubo letinhle nalabaphila kamnandzi basetindlini temakhosi? 26 Kantsi vele beniyobonani? Beniyobona umphrofethi? Ecinisweni nabona umuntfu lomkhulu kakhulu kunemphrofethi.+ 27 Lona nguye lokwabhalwa ngaye nakutsiwa: ‘Ngitfumela sitfunywa sami embikwakho,* sona sitakulungisela indlela.’+ 28 Ngitsi kini: Kubo bonkhe labake baphila emhlabeni, kute ngisho namunye lowaba mkhulu kunaJohane, kodvwa loyo lomncane eMbusweni waNkulunkulu mkhulu kunaye.”+
