4 Tangua aphangi’a Yozefe amonele egi sh’awo wakhalele muzumba Yozefe muavula guabalega ene, akhalelego luko gumuzumba. Akhalelego nji gumuzuelesa nu gisemo.
5 Lusugu lumoshi, Yozefe walotele nzoji, wayiwambelele aphangi’enji. Uvi amuhagele luko umbalagaji wakola mukunda nu ndaga yene.
6 Waawambelele egi: “Vuenu nzoji ngalotshi.
7 Tuakhala mujitshiga itungu ya mbuto hakatshi na katshi dia dihia, gitungu giami giazuga, giamagana mu molu, uvi yenu yagijieta, yafugama gutuama diagio.”

11 Aphangi’enji akhalele gumuvuila giphi, uvi sh’enji wabambele ndaga jiene mu mutshima.
12 Aphangi’a Yozefe ayile mudisa shitu jia sh’awo mu temu, hehi nu dimbo dia Shekeme.
13 Gungima Isalele wawambelele Yozefe egi: “Aphangi’aye adi mudisa shitu hehi nu dimbo dia Shekeme. Ngudi mutshigina gugutuma gudi ene.” Yozefe wamuvutuile egi: “Gima ndo.”
14 Isalele wamuwambelele luko egi: “Ngabuba, nda utale gula aphangi’aye adi muabonga, utale nji gula shitu jidi muabonga, uze unguwambele.” Yozefe wakatugile gu baba dia Hebrone, wayile gu khanda ya Shekeme.
15 Muthu mumoshi wa mumonele muya nu guwenda mu temu. Wamuhudile egi: “Itshi udi mukamba?”
16 Yozefe wamuwambelele egi: “Ngudi mukamba aphangi’ami. Ngabuba nguwambele, gui ayi nu gudisa shitu?”
17 Muthu muene wazuelele egi: “Akatuga gale haha. Ngaavui muzuela egi: ‘Tuyenu gu Dotane.’” Hene Yozefe waalanduile, waasangele gu Dotane.
18 Aphangi’enji amumonele muza gualeha. Uvi gutuama egi ahete ha fundo diakhalele ene, ayile giphungi ha gumushiya.
19 Azuelele egi: “Talenu, mulotshi wa nzoji muene yowu muza.
20 Izenu tumushiye, tumumbe mu wina wa meya, mbatuzuela egi shitu yabala ya mu foto yamushiyi. Tutale gula nzoji jienji mbajimutaganesewa.”
21 Tangua Ribene wavuile ndaga eyi, wakambele luholo lua gumuhuluisa ha mago awo. Wazuelele egi: “Tumushiyigo.”
22 Wazuelele luko egi: “Tumonyigo mahatshi. Tumumbenu mu wina edi dia meya didi mu mavu a luselenga, uvi tumutshitshigo gubola.” Wakhalele mutshigina gumuhuluisa hagula a muvutule gudi sh’enji.
23 Tangua Yozefe wahetele ha fundo diakhalele aphangi’enji, amukatudile lopho dienji diabonga diasudigile muene,
24 amumbile mu wina wa meya. Mu tangua diene, wina wene wakhalele wa gituhu; wakhalelego nu meya mukatshi.
25 Gungima akhalele hashi ha gudia. Tangua atuphuile meso, amonele musunga wa enya mungenda wa enya Ishemayele muza gu Gileade. Shamo jiawo jiakhalele mubata uhafu wa ladanume, nu maji a balesame, nu izula ya mitshi ya vumba diabonga, akhalele mubulumuga gu Ejipitu.
26 Yuda wawambelele aphangi’enji egi: “Gubonga gutshi mbatuheta gula tuashiya phangi’etu, gungima tuasuega ndaga yene?
27 Tumudigenu gudi enya Ishemayele, tumutshitshigo gubola. Udi phangi’etu, tudi n’enji mahatshi* amoshi.” Aphangi’enji amuvuidile.
28 Tangua enya mungenda a enya Madiana ajile mubalega hehi nawo, aphangi’a Yozefe amuzolele mu wina wa meya, amudigile gudi enya Ishemayele mu makuta 20 a utadi wa siliva. Athu ene ayile n’enji gu Ejipitu.
29 Havutugile Ribene gu wina dia meya, gasangelego Yozefe mukatshi, watawile milele yenji.
30 Wavutugile gudi aphangi’enji, wakalugile egi: “Mona watota! Henyaha itshi ngutshita?”
31 Gungima ashiyile khombo ya mulume, azudile lopho dia Yozefe, adimbile mu mahatshi a khombo yene.
32 Atumine lopho diene gudi sh’awo, azuelele egi: “Tuamona lopho edi. Ditale muabonga gila didi dia mun’aye nga ndo.”
33 Yakoba watalele lopho diene, wakalugile egi: “Didi lopho dia mun’ami! Shitu yabala ya mu foto yamushiyi! Yozefe wamuangewa itshinyi-itshinyi!”
34 Yakoba watawile milele yenji, wasudigile sagi* mu mbunda, wadidile mun’enji masugu avula.
35 An’enji agasue a mala nu a akhetu akhalele gumuwalagana, uvi muene wakhalele mutuna. Wakhalele muzuela egi: “Mbangulandula gudila mun’ami uu nu tangua mbangufua!”* Yakoba walanduile gudila mun’enji.
36 Enya Madiana adigile Yozefe gu Ejipitu gudi Potifale. Potifale wakhalele nu ufumu wavula mu inzo ya Farao, wakhalele nji fumu wa masuta anyi akhalele mubamba Farao.
