Dzokeraiko nemari yamakadzorerwa iya yakaiswa pamuromo wetsapo dzenyu, zvimwe vangadaro vakakanganisa, 13mutorewo munun'una wenyu musimuke muende, mudzokere zvenyu kumurume iyeyo zvakare. 14Iye Aripagomo ngaakubatsirei, murume wacho agokuitirai tsiye nyoro abvume kuti Simeoni naBhenjamini vadzoke pamwechete nemi. Kana ndarasikirwa navana vangu ndarasikirwawo.”
15Varume ava vakatora chipo ichi nemari yakapetwa kaviri kuwanda, pamwe chete naBhenjamini, vakasimuka vakaenda kuIjipiti kwavakasvika vakaonana naJosefi. 16Kuzoti Josefi aona vaina Bhenjamini, akaudza mutariri wezvemba yake achiti, “Enda navarume ava kumba kwangu undobaya chipfuwo ugadzire zvokudya. Varume ava vachadya neni masikati ano.” 17Mutariri uyu akaita zvaakaudzwa naJosefi, ndokuenda navo kumba kwaJosefi.
18Varume ivavo vakatya pavakaunzwa kumba kwaJosefi. Vakati, “Taunzwa kuno nokuda kwemari iya yakadzoserwa mutsapo dzedu parwendo rwokutanga. Atiunza muno achida kuwana manzvengeredzero okutipomera mhosva achibva atisunga otiita varanda vake achibva atitorera madhongi edu.” 19Nokudaro vakaenda kumutariri wezvemba yaJosefi vakataura naye vari pamusuo wemba. 20Vakati, “Tapota changamire, takambouya kuno kuzotenga zvokudya 21asi takati tichisvika patakavata usiku, takasunungura tsapo dzedu, wanei mari iya yakanga yabviswa nomumwe nomumwe wedu iri pamuromo wetsapo yake yakangodaro nomwero wayo chaiwo. Zvino heinoi mari yacho tadzoka nayo. Asi hatizivi akaisa mari yacho mutsapo dzedu. 22Izvozvi totouya neimwe mari mumaoko kuzotenga zvokudya. Asi iya iya hatimboziva akaiisa mutsapo dzedu.”
23Mutariri uyu ndokuti, “Regai zvenyu kutambudzika. Musatye zvenyu. Mwari wenyu, iye Mwari wababa wenyu, ndiye chete akakuisirai mari mutsapo dzenyu. Mari yenyu ndini ndakanga ndaigamuchira.” Ipapo akabva avaunzira Simeoni. 24Mutariri uyu akapinda navo mumba maJosefi. Akavapa mvura, vakashamba tsoka dzavo. Akapawo madhongi avo zvokudya. 25Varume ivavo vakafanogadzirira zvipo zvavo vachimirira Josefi akanga anzi achauya masikati kuzodya navo. 26Josefi akazosvika mumba umu, varume ava vakandomugwadamira vachimupa zvipo zvavo. 27Josefi akavabvunza zvokumusha kwavo achiti, “Ko baba venyu vaya vamakati vakwegura vakadii zvavo? Vachiri vapenyu here?” 28Ivo vakati, “Muranda wenyu ivo baba vedu varipo zvavo, vapenyu vaya.” Vakagwadamira Josefi vachimuremekedza.
29Josefi akatarisa ndokuona Bhenjamini munun'una wake, buda ndibudewo naye akati, “Saka uyu ndiye munun'una wenyu wokupedzesera wamakandiudza nhai? Mwari ngaakunzwire nyasha mwanangu!” 30Pakarepo Josefi akanzwa mwoyo wake kurwadza pamusoro pomunun'una wake, akabva akurumidza kupinda mumba yomukati kundosvimha misodziari imomo. 31Akashamba kumeso kwake akabudamo. Akazvisimbisa ndokuti, “Pakurai zvokudya.” 32Vakapira Josefi zvokudya pake oga. Hama dzake dzakadyirawo padzo dzoga. VaIjipiti vaivamo vakadyirawo pavo voga, nokuti vaIjipiti pachavo vaiti kudya nevaHebheru, chinhu chakashoreka. 33Vakagara pakatarisana naJosefi vakanyatsorongwa namazero avo kubvira kudangwe kusvikira kugotwe zvokuti vakatotarisana vachishamiswa nazvo. 34Zvokudya zvaipakurwa zvichibva patafura yaJosefi. Asi Bhenjamini akapakurirwa zvokudya zvaidarika zvavamwe kakapetwa kashanu. Vakadya vakanwa vakafara pamwechete naye.
