Indeed, without an illustration he would not speak to them; that there might be fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet who said:  I will open my mouth with illustrations. " (Matthew 13:34, 35) "The prophet" quoted by Matthew was the composer of Psalm 78:2.
Matewu i tsalile lezvi: "A nga wulangi nchumu ka vona ahandle ka mufananiso; kasi ku fela ku tatiseka lezvi zvi nga kanelwe hi muphrofeti, aku: Ndzi ta vhulula nomu wa mina hi mifananiso; ndzi ta humesela a timhaka ti fihlilweko hi kusanguleni ka tiko." - Matewu 13:34, 35; Lisimu 78:2.
