21 Ngakho-ke, kungani ningaqondi futhi nazi, ukuthi lowo owemukela izwi ngoMoya weqiniso ulemukela njengoba lishunyayelwa ngoMoya weqiniso na?
22 Ngalokho-ke, lowo oshumayelayo nalowo owemukelayo, bayaqonda omunye nomunye, futhi bobabili abayakhana futhi bbajabule ndawonye.
23 Futhi lokho okungakhiyo akukona okukaNkulunkulu, futhi akungubumnyama.
24 Lokho okungokukaNkulunkulu akungukukhanya; futhi lowo owemukela ukukhanya, bnohlala kuNkulunkulu, ufumana cukukhanya okuningi; futhi lokho kukhanya kuyakhula futhi kukhule kuze kube semini.
25 Futhi phezu kwalokho, ngithi kini, futhi ngikusho lokhu ukuze nazi aiqiniso, ukuze nixoshe ubumnyama phakathi kwenu;
26 Lowo ogcotshiweyo ngokuka Nkulunkulu futhi wathunywa, nguye lowo obekwe ukuba abe angomkhulu kunani nonke, nakuba engomncane kubo bonke futhi beyinceku yabo bonke.
