27Wabaphendula wathi: “Senginitshelile, kepha anezwa; nifunelani ukuzwa futhi na? nithanda ukuba ngabafundi bakhe nani na?
28Base bemthuka, bathi: “Nguwe ongumfundi wakhe; kepha thina singabafundi bakaMose.
29Siyazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu wakhuluma kuMose;
30Umuntu waphendula, wathi kubo: Kungani kulokhu kuyisimangaliso, ukuthi nina anazi lapho avela khona, nokho uvule amehlo ami.
