13. Ke kaloku uPilato, ebabizele ndawonye ababingeleli abakhulu, nabaphathi bamaYuda, nabantu, wathi kubo,
14. Nizise kum lo mntu, ngathi ngophambukisa abantu; niyabona ke, ndimncinile mna emehlweni enu, andafumana tyala kulo mntu, kwezo zinto nimmangalele ngazo;
15. kwanoHerode, kuba ndanithumela kuye. Nanku ke kungekho nto ifanelwe kukufa, yenziwe nguye.
16. Ndothi ke ngoko, ndakumbetha, ndimkhulule.
17. Ke kaloku, ubemelwe kukuthi abakhululele umbanjwa abe mnye, imithendeleko ngemithendeleko.
18. Bankqangaza ke ngokuphela kwabo, besithi, Msuse lo, usikhululele uBharabhas,
19. owayethe, ngenxa yesaqunge esithile, esibe senziwe phakathi komzi, kwanokubulala, waphoswa entolongweni.
20. Waphinda ngoko uPilato wathetha nabo, efuna ukumkhulula uYesu.
21. Ke bona bamana benkqangaza, besithi, Bethelela emnqamlezweni; mbethelele emnqamlezweni.
22. Uthe ke yena okwesithathu kubo, Kuba enzé bubi buni na lo? Andifumananga tyala lakufa kuye; ndothi ngoko, ndakumbetha, ndimkhulule.
23. Bamxina ke bona ngezandi ezikhulu zamazwi, becela ukuba abethelelwe emnqamlezweni; aza ke eyisa amazwi abo, nawababingeleli abakhulu.
24. Usuke ke uPilato wagweba ngelithi, masenziwe isicelo sabo.
25. Wabakhululela ke owayethe ngenxa yesaqunge nokubulala waphoswa entolongweni, lowo babecela yena; wamnikela ekuthandeni kwabo uYesu.
26. Kuthe ke xa bamrholayo, babamba Simon uthile, waseKirene, obevela emaphandleni; bawubeka phezu kwakhe umnqamlezo, ukuba awuthwale emva koYesu.
