Inkosi y akwa-Israyeli yathi : Mthatheni uMikhaya , nimbuyisele ku -Amoni umbusi womuzi nakuJowashi indodana yenkosi,

Khona uPilatu wathi kubo : Mthatheni nina , nimahlulele ngomthetho wakini. Bathi kuye abaJuda: Asivunyelwe ukubulala umuntu,

Bathi bembona abapristi abakhulu nezikhonzi , bamemeza bathi: Mbethele, mbethele esiphambanweni! UPilatu wathi kubo : Mthatheni nina, nimbethele esiphambanweni, ngokuba angifumani cala kuye.
