1. Waza uYesu wathetha kwisihlwele nakubafundi bakhe, esithi,
2. Ababhali nabaFarisi bahleli esihlalweni sikaMoses.
3. Konke ngoko abasukuba besithi kuni kugcineni, ze nikugcine nikwenze; kodwa ze ningenzi ngokwemisebenzi yabo; kuba bathetha baze bangenzi.
4. Kuba babopha imithwalo enzima, esindayo, bayibeke emagxeni abantu, babe ke bona bengathandi kuyishukumisa nangomnwe lo wabo.
5. Yonke imisebenzi yabo ke bayenza ngokunga bangabonwa ngabantu; bawènze banzi amaqhaga abo ezikhumbuzo, bayàndise imiqukumbelo yeengubo zabo.
6. Kananjalo bathanda izilili zobukhulu ezidlweni, kwanezihlalo zobukhulu ezindlwini zesikhungu,
7. nemibuliso ezindaweni zembutho, nokubizwa ngabantu kuthiwe, Rabhi, Rabhi.*
8. Ke nina maningabizwa kuthiwe Rabhi; kuba mnye uMkhokeli wenu, uKristu; nina ke nonke ningabazalwana.
9. Ningabizi mntu ngokuba nguyihlo emhlabeni apha; kuba mnye uYihlo wenu, lowo usemazulwini.
10. Kananjalo maningabizwa ngokuba ningabakhokeli; kuba mnye uMkhokeli wenu, uKristu.
11. Omkhulu ke kuni makabe ngumlungiseleli wenu.
