25 Kwakulowesifazana owayesehlutshwe ngumkhuhlane wokopha+ okweminyaka engu-12.+ 26 Wayesehlupheke kakhulu* odokotela abanengi bezama ukumelapha futhi wayeseqede konke ayelakho, kodwa umkhuhlane wawulokhu uqina kulokuthi ube ngcono. 27 Wezwa imibiko emayelana loJesu, yikho weza wazithukuza phakathi kwabantu wasethinta isembatho sakhe sangaphandle+ engemva kwakhe, 28 ngoba wayelokhu esithi: “Nxa nje ngingathinta izembatho zakhe zangaphandle, ngizasila.”+ 29 Masinyane nje ukopha kwama, wezwa emzimbeni wakhe ukuthi wayesesilisiwe emkhuhlaneni lo owawusumhlukuluze kakhulu.
