28 Kwathi abathengisi bakoMidiyani+ bedlula khonapho abafowabo bamkhipha emgodini, basebemthengisela ama-Ishmayeli ngenhlamvu zesiliva ezingu-20.+ Amadoda la athatha uJosefa ahamba laye eGibhithe.

36 Ama-Ishmayeli afika laye eGibhithe amthengisa kuPhothifa isiphathamandla sikaFaro+ esasiyinduna yabalindi.+

4 Ngakho uJosefa wathi kubo: “Ngicela lisondele kimi,” basebesondela kuye.

Wasesithi: “Yimi uJosefa umfowenu elamthengisela eGibhithe.+ 5 Kodwa lingasolani futhi lingadani ngenxa yokuthi langithengisa; ngoba uNkulunkulu wangithuma phambi kwenu ukuze kulondolozwe impilo.+

20 Lanxa lalifuna ukwenza okubi kimi,+ uNkulunkulu watshintsha izinto zahamba kuhle ukuze kulondolozwe impilo zabantu abanengi, njengoba libona ekwenza lamuhla.+
