Gonne ga ke tsietse, ga ke dire boaka, 12 Ke itima dijo gabedi mo bekeng, mme ke naya Modimo di tsa bosome jwa dilo tsotlhe tse ke di bapalang.’
13 “Mme mokgethisi yo o bosula a emetse kwa kgakala a sa batle go lelala kwa legodimong fa a rapela, a ititaya sefuba ka kutlobotlhoko, a goa a re, ‘Modimo nkutlwela botlhoko nna moleofi!’ 14 Ke a lo bolelela, moleofi yo, e seng Mofarasai, o ne a boela gae a itshwaretswe! Gonne baikgantshi ba tlaa ngotlafadiwa mme ba ba ingotlang ba tlaa godisiwa.”

27 A ba fetola a re, “Modimo o ka dira se batho ba se ka keng ba se dira!”
28 Mme Petere a re, “Re tlogetse malwapa a rona ra go sala morago.”
29 Jesu a fetola a re, “E, mme botlhe ba ba dirileng jaaka lona, ba tlogetse lolwapa, mosadi, bomorwarraagwe, batsadi kgotsa bana ka ntlha ya Bogosi jwa Modimo, 30 ba tlaa duelwa gantsintsi ka lobaka lo, le go amogela botshelo jo bo sa khutleng mo lefatsheng le le tlang.”

Mme fa re tsena koo dipolelelo-pelo tsa baporofiti ba bogologolo ka ga me di tlaa diragala. 32 Ke tlaa neelwa Badichaba go sotlwa le go kgwelwa mathe le go gagautlhwa mo go tlhabisang ditlhong, 33 ke tlaa itewa ke bo ke bolawa. Mme ka letsatsi la boraro ke tlaa tsoga gape.”

39 Mme bontsintsi jwa batho jo bo neng bo eteletse Jesu pele jwa leka go didimatsa monna yo, mme a goela kwa godimo a re, “Morwa Dafide nkutlwela botlhoko!”
40 E rile Jesu a goroga fa lefelong leo a ema a re, “Lereng monna yoo wa sefofu kwano.” 41 Hong Jesu a botsa monna a re, “O batlang”? A kopa a re, “Morena ke batla go bona!”
