18Kwathi lapho abantu bonke besizwa ukuduma lokukhala kophondo, lalapho bebona imibane lokuthunqa kwentaba bathuthumela, bema khatshana;Heb 12:18, 19

19bathi kuMose: Khuluma lathi wena, sizakuzwa; kodwa uNkulunkulu kangakhulumi kithi funa sife.

20UMose wathi ebantwini: Lingesabi; ngoba uNkulunkulu ufikile ukuba alilinge, ukuze limesabe, lingoni.

21Abantu bema khatshana; kodwa uMose wasondela emnyameni omkhulu lapho uNkulunkulu ayekhona.
