Lilomnawenu yini? Sayilandisela ngalawomazwi ^{▼▼ ngalawo-: Heb umlomo.}; ukwazi sasikwazi yini ukuthi izakuthi: Yehlani lomnawenu? 8 UJuda wasesithi kuIsrayeli uyise: Thuma umfana lami; besesisukuma sihambe, ukuze siphile singafi ^f, lathi, lawe, labantwanyana bethu. 9 Mina ngizakuba yisibambiso sakhe; uzambiza esandleni sami; uba ngingambuyisi kuwe ngimbeke phambi kwakho, ngizakuba lecala kuwe zonke izinsuku ^g. 10 Isibili uba besingalibalanga, qotho ngabe khathesi sesibuyile kabili. 11 UIsrayeli uyise wasesithi kubo: Uba kunjalo khathesi, yenzani lokhu; thathani okwezithelo ezikhethiweyo zelizwe ezitsheni zenu, liyehlisele leyondoda isipho, inhlaka eyingcosana ^h, loluju oluyingcosana, isinongo, lemure*, imkelu yepistakiyo, lama-alimondi; 12 lithathe imali iphindwe kabili esandleni senu; futhi imali eyabuyiselwayo emlonyeni wamasaka enu ⁱ liyibuyisele esandleni senu, mhlawumbe kwaba yisiphosiso. 13 Lithathe futhi umfowenu, lisukume, libuyele kuleyondoda. 14 UNkulunkulu uSomandla ^j kaliphe isihawu phambi kwaleyondoda, ukuze alikhululele omunye umfowenu loBhenjamini. Mina-ke, uba ngemukwa abantwana, ngiyemukwa.

15 Amadoda asethatha lesosipho, athatha imali ephindwe kabili esandleni sawo loBhenjamini; asukuma ehlela eGibhithe, ema phambi kukaJosefa. 16 Kwathi uJosefa embona uBhenjamini elabo, wathi kumphathi wendlu yakhe ^k: Ngenisa lamadoda endlini, uhlabe isifuyo, ulungise, ngoba lamadoda azakudla lami emini. 17 Indoda yenza njengoba uJosefa etshilo, lendoda yawangenisa amadoda endlini kaJosefa. 18 Amadoda asesesaba, ngoba engeniswe endlini kaJosefa; athi: Singenisiwe ngenxa yemali eyabuyiselwa emasakeni ethu kuqala, ukuze asijume ^{▼▼ asijume: Heb azigiqe phezu kwethu.} ehlele phezu kwethu, asithathe sibe yizigqili, labobabhemi bethu. 19 Asesondela endodeni eyayingumphathi wendlu kaJosefa, akhuluma kuyo emnyango wendlu, 20 athi: Mayuyu nkosi yami! Sehla lokwehla kuqala ukuthenga ukudla ^m. 21 Kwasekusithi sesifike endlini yezihambi, savula amasaka ethu, khangela-ke, imali yalowo lalowo yayisemlonyeni wesaka lakhe ⁿ, imali yethu ngesisindo sayo; siyibuyisile esandleni sethu. 22 Sehle lenye imali layo esandleni sethu, ukuthenga ukudla. Kasazi ukuthi ngubani ofake imali yethu emasakeni ethu. 23 Wasesithi: Ukuthula kakube kini, lingesabi. UNkulunkulu wenu loNkulunkulu kayihlo ulinikile inotho emasakeni enu. Imali yenu yeza kimi. Wasemkhuphela kubo uSimeyoni. 24 Indoda yasiwangenisa amadoda endlini kaJosefa, yawanika amanzi; asegeza inyawo zawo; yasinika obabhemi bawo ukudla ^o. 25 Aselungisa isipho ^p waze wafika uJosefa emini, ngoba ayezwile ukuthi bazakudla isinkwa lapho.

26 Kwathi uJosefa esefikile endlini, amlethela endlini isipho esasisesandleni sawo, amkhothamela emhlabathini ^q. 27 Wasewabuza impilo wathi: Uyaphila uyihlo yini, ixhegu elalikhuluma ngalo? Lisaphila yini ^r? 28 Asesithi: Inceku yakho ubaba isekhona, isaphila. Asekhothamela phansi amkhonza. 29 Wasephakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona uBhenjamini umfowabo, indodana kanina ^s, wathi: Nguye lo umnawenu omncinyane yini elakhuluma ngaye kimi ^t? Wathi futhi: UNkulunkulu kabe lomusa kuwe, ndodana yami. 30 UJosefa wasephangisa, ngoba imibilini yakhe yatshisekela umfowabo ^u; wadinga indawo yokukhala inyembezi; wangena ekamelweni eliphakathi, wakhala inyembezi khona ^v. 31 Esegezile ubuso bakhe, waphuma; esezibambile ^w wathi: Fakani isinkwa. 32 Bamfakela yedwa, lawo wodwa, lamaGibhithe, ayesidla laye, wodwa, ngoba amaGibhithe ayengedle isinkwa lamaHebheru, ngoba lokho kwakuyisinengiso kumaGibhithe ^x. 33 Asehlala phambi kwakhe, izibulo njengobuzibulo balo, lecinathunjana njengobucinathunjana balo; amadoda asemangala enye kwenye. 34 Wasewabela kulokhu okwakuphambi kwakhe ^y; kodwa isabelo sikaBhenjamini saphindwa kahlanu ^z okwedlula isabelo sawo wonke. Anatha asenatha kakhulu laye.
