HJS, NgokukaJohane 4:1–4. Qhathanisa noJohane 4:1–2
AbaFarisi bafuna ukumbulala uJesu. Wenza imibhabhadiso, kodwa abafundi Bakhe benza eminingi.
1 Ngakho-ke kwathi abaFarisi sebezwile ukuthi uJesu wenza futhi wabhabhadisa abafundi abaningi kakhulu kunoJohane,
2 Bafuna ngokukhuthala okukhulu izindlela ezithile ukuze bambulale; ngokuba abaningi bamemukela uJohane njengomphrofethi, kodwa babengakholelwa kuJesu.
3 Manje iNkosi yayikwazi lokhu, nakuba yona uqobo ingabhabhadisanga abaningi njengabafundi bayo;
4 Ngokuba yabavumela ukuba babhabhadise abaningi njengesibonelo, bahloniphane omunye nomunye.
