5Yakobo kagendelela kulonga, “Wanago waidi wouwapatile hano Misili ning'hali sinafika, ni wanangu. Efulaimu na Manase wezakuwa wangu fana viya viweli Lubeni na Simeoni. 6One uhawa na wana wamwenga wengi, hawezakuwa wangu bule, uhazi wondawapate wizalawa kwa Efulaimu na Manase. 7Vinikalile nobwela kulawa Padani, Laheli kadanganika muna iisi ya Kanaani, siyo ugenzi mtali kufika Efulata. Nimuwanda baho hamgwazo wa dikulugumbi dihita Efulata, sambi yotangigwa Betelehemu.”
8Isilaili viyawawonile wana wa Yosefu, kauza, “Wabwanga wano ni welihi?”
9Yosefu kamwidika, “Wano ni wanangu, woyaning'hile Mulungu hano Misili.”
Yakobo kalonga, “Nikwenhusile habehi muladi nidahe kuwatemela mate.” 10Meso ya Yakobo yakala hayalola kwa ichimu cha ulala. Ivo Yosefu kawakwenhusa wanage habehi na tati yake, na Yakobo kawahagatila na kawanonela. 11Isilaili kamulongela Yosefu, “Sigesile bule kuwona chihanga chako kaidi, mbali humbe Mulungu kanogela mbaka kuwawona wanago.” 12Maabaho Yosefu kawasegeza wanage hana yamavindi ya tati yake na katumbala mavindi mbaka chihanga chake chidalisa hasi.
13Yosefu kaweka wanage wose waidi, Efulaimu kuna umkono wake wa kulume kusonhela mkono wa kumoso wa Isilaili, na Manase kuna umkono wake wa kumoso kusonhela mkono wa kulume wa Isilaili. Kawakwenhusa habehi nayo. 14Mbali Isilaili kayafosesaza yamakono yake, mkono wa kulume kawika mditwi da Efulaimu, ingawa kakala mdodo na mkono wake wa kumoso kawika mditwi da Manase yoyakale chaudele. 15Maabaho Isilaili kamtemela mate Yosefu kalonga, “Mulungu ija tati zetu Bulahimu na Isaka wakala fana viyolonda muna ugima wawo,
Mulungu yoyanidimile muna uugima wangu mbaka diyelo,
16Msenga wa kuulanga ija yoyanikombole niye muna yehile yose, yawatemele mate wabwanga wano!
Wezatangigwa wanangu kwa ludongo lwa welesi wa Bulahimu na Isaka na wongezeke kwa wingi muna iisi.”
17Yosefu viyawone kuwa tati yake kawika mkono wake wa kulume kuna iditwi da Efulaimu, hanogelwe bule. Ivo kawamha mkono wa tati yake kalonda kuusegeza uchanyha ya ditwi da Efulaimu, yawike kuna iditwi da Manase. 18Yosefu kamulongela tati yake, “Siyo ivo tata. Ino niiyo chaudele, mwikile mkono wako wa kulume muna iditwi jake.”
19Mbali tati yake kalema, kalonga, “Novimanya mwanangu, novimanya. Welesi wa Manase iviya wezakuwa wanhu wakulu. Mbali mdodo wake kezakuwa mkulu kufosa yeye, na welesi wake wezakuwa makabila makulu.”
20Ivo kawatemela mate siku ijo na kalonga, “Waisilaili wezasang'hanila mazina yenu kutemela mate, wezalonga, ‘Mulungu yakutende weye fana Efulaimu na Manase.’ ” Niivo Yakobo viyamwikile Efulaimu haulongozi wa Manase.
21Baho Isilaili kamulongela Yosefu, “Fana viya viuwona kuwa niye nahabehi kudanganika, mbali Mulungu kezakuwa na mweye na kuwasola kuwabweleza muna iisi ya wasaho zenu. 22Niye nikwing'ha weye siyo ndugu zako hanhu hotangigwa Shekemu na vinhu vonisolile muna yamakono ya Waamoli kwa upanga wangu na uta wangu.”
