23 Naizvozvo zvakafanira kuti mifananidzo yezvinhu zviri kumatenga inatswe nezvizvi, asi zvinhu zvekudenga pachazvo zvinatswe nezvibairo zvakanaka kupfuura izvi.

24 Nokuti Kristu haana kupinda panzvimbo tsvene yakaitwa nemaoko, iri mifananidzo yezvechokwadi, asi wakapinda kudenga pachake, kuti ikozvino aonekwe pachiso chaMwari pachinzvimbo chedu;
