19:2	Naye akawaambia, “Baada ya kuamini, mmempokea Roho Mtakatifu?” Lakini wao wakamwambia, "Hatujasikia kwamba kuna Roho Mtakatifu."
19:3	Bado kweli, alisema, “Basi umebatizwa na nini?” Wakasema, "Kwa ubatizo wa Yohana."
19:4	Kisha Paulo akasema: “Yohana aliwabatiza watu kwa ubatizo wa toba, wakisema kwamba wamwamini yule ajaye baada yake, hiyo ni, katika Yesu.”
19:5	Baada ya kusikia mambo haya, wakabatizwa kwa jina la Bwana Yesu.

16:29	Wanafunzi wake wakamwambia: “Tazama, now you are speaking plainly and not reciting a proverb.
16:30	Now we know that you know all things, and that you have no need for anyone to question you. Kwa hili, we believe that you went forth from God.”

16:32	Tazama, the hour is coming, and it has now arrived, when you will be scattered, each one on his own, and you will leave me behind, peke yake. And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
16:33	Mambo haya nimewaambia, so that you may have peace in me. Katika dunia, you will have difficulties. But have confidence: I have overcome the world.”
