Pali miyambo inanso yambiri imene anailandira ndipo akuitsatira, monga kuviika mʼmadzi makapu, mitsuko ndi ziwiya zakopa.*)+ 5 Choncho Afarisi ndi alembi amenewa anamufunsa kuti: “Nʼchifukwa chiyani ophunzira anu satsatira miyambo ya makolo, koma amadya chakudya ndi manja oipitsidwa?”+ 6 Iye anawayankha kuti: “Yesaya analosera zolondola zokhuza anthu achinyengo inu, mogwirizana ndi zimene Malemba amanena kuti, ‘Anthu awa amandilemekeza ndi milomo yokha, koma mitima yawo aiika kutali ndi ine.+ 7 Chilichonse chomwe amachita pondilambira ndi chopanda pake, chifukwa amaphunzitsa malamulo a anthu ngati kuti ndi malamulo a Mulungu.’+ 8 Mumanyalanyaza malamulo a Mulungu nʼkumaumirira miyambo ya anthu.”+
