Wathi eqeda ukukhuleka entabeni wabona kulomoya omkhulu eLwandle lweGalile. Abaphostoli bakhe babesesikepeni bezama ukugwedla kodwa umoya wawubathwalise nzima. UJesu wehla entabeni wasehamba phezu kwamanzi esiya esikepeni sabaphostoli. Abaphostoli besaba lapho bebona umuntu ehamba phezu kwamanzi. Kodwa uJesu wathi kubo: ‘Yimi, lingesabi.’UPhethro wathi: ‘Nkosi, nxa kunguwe sibili, tshono ukuthi ngize kuwe.’ UJesu wathi: ‘Buya.’ Yikho lanxa kwakulesiphepho, uPhethro wehla esikepeni wasesiya kuJesu ehamba phezu kwamanzi. Kodwa wathi esezafika kuJesu, wakhangela isiphepho. Wesaba waseqalisa ukutshona emanzini. Wamemeza wathi: ‘Nkosi nginceda.’ UJesu wambamba ngesandla wathi: ‘Yindaba uthandabuzile?

Bathi: “Ngempela uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu.”UJesu wayengaqalisi ukuthulisa umoya. Ngelinye ilanga uJesu wayelele esikepeni ngesikhathi esiya ngaphetsheya kolwandle elabaphostoli bakhe.
