Ngakho uma uDemetriyu kanye nezingcweti zabakhandi besiliva benendaba nomuntu, zikhona izinsuku zokuthetha amacala , bakhona nababusi ; mabamangalelane.

Amakhosi omhlaba aqhelile , nababusi bayihlanganyel e iNkosi noGcotshiweyo wayo.

ngokuba asibambene negazi nen yama, kodwa sibambene nemibuso , namandla, nababusi bezwe balobu bumnyama , nabawomoya bobubi emkhathini.

Kepha ngaphambi kwakho konke lokho bayakunibamba, banizingele, banikhaphele emasinagogeni nasematilongweni , baniyise phambi kwamakhosi nababusi ngenxa yegama lami.

UPilatu wabizela ndawonye abapristi abakhulu nababusi nabantu,

Abantu bema , bebukela; nababusi bamklolodela bathi : Wasindisa abanye; kazisindise yena, uma enguKristu okhethiweyo kaNkulunkulu.

ukuthi abapristi abakhulu nababusi bethu bamkhaphela ukunqunyelwa ukufa, baze bambethela esiphambanweni.

Zonke izikhulu zezifunda , nawothulasizwe, nababusi, nabenza umsebenzi wenkosi, babasiza abaJuda, ngokuba babehlelwe yingebhe ngoMoridekayi.

Ngokuba bazithathele amadodakazi abo , bona namadodana abo, kuze kuthi inzalo engcwele isixubene nabantu bezizwe ; izandla zezikhulu nababusi yizona ebeziphambili kuleso siphambeko.
