48 Konyima, Josefa tava mu tantere asi: “Tara si, oguho kapi vana wapa.” Makura Josefa ta twara vana vendi wovagara, Manase naEfurayimi kwaJakopo.
2 Makura Jakopo tava mu tantere asi: “Munoge Josefa ana wiza.” Israeli ta kondjo kupinduka makura ta hingire pombete.
3 Jakopo ta tantere Josefa asi:
“Karunga Munankondo nadinye kwa monekerere nge moRusu, mosirongo saKanani nokutungika nge.
4 Age kwa tanterere nge asi: ‘Ame ngani vhukisa ruvharo* roge ntani ove ngo kara muhoko gomunene. Ame ngani gava sirongo esi koruvharo* roge yipo ngasi kare sawo narunye.’
5 Vana woge wovagara vavali ava va retera mosirongo saEgipite komeho ni wize koge, vange. Efurayimi naManase ngava kara vange ngwendi moomu va kara vange oRubena naSimiyoni.
6 Nye vana ava ngo reta konyima zawo, ngava kara woge. Awo ngava va zigidisa komadina govakuru vawo ntani awo ngava gwana upingwa wawo moupingwa wovakuru vawo.
7 Apa na tundire koPadani, onane woge Rakera kwa dogorokerere mosirongo saKanani, aso sirongo saEfurata simpe ure, makura yipo na va vhumbikire monzira zokuza koEfurata ndi Beterehema.”
8 Makura Israeli ta mono vana vaJosefa wovagara, ta pura asi: “Wolye ava?”
9 Josefa ta limburura oguhwe asi: “Ava vana vange wovagara ava ga pa nge Karunga mosirongo esi.” Makura Jakopo ta tanta asi: “Va reta oku yipo ni ya va tungike.”
10 Israeli kapi ga vhulire kumona nawa morwa ukurupe. Josefa ta hedesere vana vendi pepi noguhwe, makura awo tava va ncumita nokuvalidingira.
11 Israeli ta tantere Josefa asi: “Kapi na yi gazarere asi ngani mona hena sipara soge, nye Karunga ga pulisira nge ni mone ruvharo* roge.”
12 Josefa makura ta gusa vana vendi ava va kere ponongoro daIsraeli, makura ta nyongamene Israeli.
13 Josefa ta kwata Efurayimi newoko lyendi lyorulyo, ano Manase newoko lyendi lyorumoho. Age makura tava hedesere pepi naIsraeli. Age kwa tulire Efurayimi korumoho rwaIsraeli, ano Manase kwa mu tulire korulyo.
14 Nye Israeli ta gusa ewoko lyendi lyorulyo nokulitura pomutwe gwaEfurayimi nampili ngomu ga kere munona. Ano ewoko lyendi lyorumoho ta li tura pomutwe gwaManase. Age ga divire eyi ga rugene, nampili ngomu ga yi divire asi Manase yige ga kere mbeli.
15 Makura ta tungike Josefa nokutanta asi:
“Karunga gousili ogu ngava karere omama Abirahamu notate Isaka,
Karunga gousili ogu ga takamesa nge ngwendi musita eparu lyange nalinye,
16 muengeli ogu ga popera nge momaudigu nagenye ngano a tungike vamati ava.
Ngano ngava va zigidise edina lyange neli lyomama Abirahamu ntani notate Isaka.
Ruvharo rwawo ngano nga ru livhukise pevhu.”
17 Josefa kapi ga yi haferere apa ga mwene oguhwe vana kambeke ewoko lyawo lyorulyo pomutwe gwaEfurayimi, makura yipo ga hetekerere ko kugusa ewoko lyoguhwe pomutwe gwaEfurayimi a li kambeke pomutwe gwaManase.
18 Josefa ta tantere oguhwe asi: “Tate kapisi yimo ngoso. Kambekeni ewoko lyeni lyorulyo pomutwe gwendi, morwa ogu yige mbeli.”
19 Nye oguhwe tava nyoka nokutanta asi: “Na yi diva munange, na yi diva. Nage nga kara muhoko ntani nga kara munene, nye nampili ngoso, mumbyendi nga kara munene kumupitakana ntani moruvharo* rwendi nga mu tunda nomuhoko.”
20 Makura ta twikire kuvatungika mezuva olyo pokutanta asi:
“Vaisraeli ngano ngava mu tumbure apa ngava litungika vene navene pokutanta asi,
‘Karunga ngano a mu ninke mu kare ngwendi Efurayimi naManase.’”
Yipo nye, Jakopo kwa tulire Efurayimi komeho zaManase.
21 Makura Israeli ta tantere Josefa asi: “Tara si, ame ntaantani ni fe, nye Karunga nga twikira kukara nove ntani nga ku tengwida kosirongo sozinyakurwetu.
22 Ame tani ku pe hena ruha rumwe rosirongo* kupitakana vakuru woge namumbyoge, eli na gusire koVaamoli norufuro ntani nouta wange wonkanza.”
