21 UMatha wathi kuJesu, "Nkosi, aluba ubukhonapha ngabe umnewethu kafanga. 22 Kodwa ngiyazi ukuthi lamanje uNkulunkulu uzakunika loba yini oyicelayo."
23 UJesu wathi kuye, "Umfowenu uzavuka njalo."
24 UMatha waphendula wathi, "Ngiyazi ukuthi uzavuka futhi ekuvukeni kwabafileyo ngosuku lokucina."
25 UJesu wathi kuye, "Mina ngiyikuvuka kwabafileyo lokuphila. Lowo okholwa kimi uzaphila loba engafa; 26 njalo lowo ophilayo ekholwa kimi kasoze afa lanini. Uyakukholwa lokhu na?"
27 Waphendula wathi, "Yebo Nkosi, ngiyakholwa ukuthi unguye uKhristu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu, ozabuya emhlabeni."
