uYosefu uchazela uFaro amaphupha
1Kwathi, kwakuzaliseka iminyaka emibini, uFaro waphupha, wambona emi phezu komlambo; 2nanko kunyuka, kuphuma emlanjeni, amathokazi asixhenxe atyebileyo, etyebile; ayesidla edlelweni. 3Ndabona kunyuka, kuphuma emlanjeni, amanye amathokazi asixhenxe emva kwawo, emabi, enqinile, ehluthi; wamisa nezinye iinkomo elunxwemeni lomlambo; 4asuka amathokazi amabi, anqinileyo, awadla amathokazi asixhenxe amahle, atyebileyo. Waphakama ke uFaro. 5Waphinda walala, waphupha okwesibini, wabona iziqhamo ezisixhenxe zikhula eludizeni olunye, zityebile yaye zintle. 6Nantso ke, kubonakala imitya ezisixhenxe ngasemva kwayo, engcakacileyo, ivela lulophu lwasempumalanga. 7Zaza iibhokhwe ezisixhenxe ezinqinileyo zazidla iinkunzi zeebhokhwe ezisixhenxe neebhokhwe ezichumileyo. Wavuka uFaro, O, liphupha. 8Kwasa umoya wakhe wakhathazeka; wathumela ukuba kubizwe zonke izazi zaseYiputa, nezilumko zakhe zonke; uFaro wazixelela iphupha lakhe; kodwa akubangakho namnye ubenako ukuyicacisa kuFaro. 9Wathi umphathi wabangcamli kuFaro, Ndiyasikhumbula namhla isono sam. 10uFaro wayenoburhalarhume kubakhonzi bakhe, wandibeka elugcinweni lomthetheli wendlu yabasiki, mna nomthetheli wabapheki. 11Saphupha iphupha ngobunye ubusuku, mna naye; elowo waphupha ngokutyhilwa kwephupha lakhe. 12Kwaye kukho kuthi umfana ongumHebhere, umkhonzi womthetheli wabasiki; saza samxelela, yaye wasichazela amaphupha ethu; wachazela wonke umntu ngephupha lakhe. 13Kwathi, njengoko wayesixelele, kwaba njalo; Wandibuyisela emsebenzini wam, wabeka umnxeba kuye. 14uFaro wathumela ukuba kubizwe uYosefu. Wazicheba, wanxiba iingubo zakhe, wangena kuFaro. 15Wathi uFaro kuYosefu, Ndiphuphe iphupha, akwabakho mntu ulityhilayo; ndikuve usithi uyaliqonda iphupha ulitolike. 16uYosefu wamphendula uFaro, wathi, Andinguye; uThixo uya kumphendula uFaro ngoxolo. 17Wathi uFaro kuYosefu, Ephupheni lam, yabona, ndimi elunxwemeni lomlambo; 18nanko kunyuka, kuphuma emlanjeni, amathokazi asixhenxe etyebile, etyebile; ayesidla edlelweni. 19Ndabona kunyuka amanye amathokazi asixhenxe emva kwawo, emabi, emabi kakhulu, emabi kakhulu, endingazanga ndiwabone kulo lonke ilizwe laseYiputa, ngenxa yobubi obubi kuwo; 20amathokazi angamarhoqorhoqo, anqinileyo, awadla amathokazi asixhenxe atyebileyo. 21Bakuba ke basidla, akwaziwa ukuba bayidlile; kodwa babesebabi njengakuqala. Ndiye ndaphakama. 22Ndabona ephupheni lam, ndabona iidumba ezisixhenxe ziphuma mcingeni mnye, zichumile, zintle; 23Nanko kuvela iinkozo ezisixhenxe ngasemva kwazo, ezomileyo, ezingcakacileyo, ziqhutywa lulophu lwasempumalanga. 24Asuka amathanga angcakacileyo, awadla amathangazana asixhenxe alungileyo; kodwa akukho bani unokundicacisela. 25uYosefu wathi uFaro, Elinye iphupha likaFaro: uThixo umxelele uFaro oko aya kukwenza. 26Amathokazi asixhenxe alungileyo yiminyaka esixhenxe; nemithambo esixhenxe elungileyo yiminyaka esixhenxe; iphupha lilinye. 27Amathokazi asixhenxe angamarhoqorhoqo, anyukileyo aphuma emva kwawo, abeminyaka isixhenxe ezelwe; nemitya esixhenxe engenanto, evuthuzwe lulophu lwasempuma, iya kuba yiminyaka esixhenxe yendlala. 28Lilo eli ilizwi endalithethayo kuFaro lokuthi, oko aya kukwenza uThixo, uya kukubonisa uFaro. 29Yabona, kukho iminyaka esixhenxe yendyebo ezweni lonke laseYiputa; 30Emva kwaleyo kuya kubakho iminyaka esixhenxe yendlala; ilityalwe yonke indyebo ezweni laseYiputa; nendlala iya kulidla ihlabathi; 31Ayiyi kwaziwa inala ehlabathini, ngenxa yendlala eya kulilandela; kuba kuya kuba nzima kakhulu. 32Ngoko ke, laphindwa kabini iphupha likaFaro; kungenxa yokuba lo mbandela ucetywe nguThixo, yaye kungekudala uThixo uya kuwuzalisekisa. 33uFaro makakhangele indoda esisilumko, esisilumko, ayimise phezu kwelizwe laseYiputa. 34Makenze le nto uFaro, alimise abalawuli ilizwe, athabathe isihlanu selizwe laseYiputa iminyaka esixhenxe yendyebo. 35Mababuthe konke ukudla kweminyaka yendyebo ezayo, yokudala ingqolowa phantsi kwesandla sikaFaro, bakugcine ukudla emizini; 36Oko kudla kuya kuba ngumxhesho welizwe ngeminyaka yosixhenxe yendlala eya kubakho ezweni laseYiputa; hleze ihlabathi litshabalale yindlala. 37Lalunga loo nto emehlweni kaFaro nasemehlweni abo bonke abakhonzi bakhe. 38Wathi uFaro kubakhonzi bakhe, Sinokumfumana na umntu onje, onomoya kaThixo? 39Wathi uFaro kuYosefu, Ekubeni uThixo ekwazisile zonke ezi zinto, akukho bani usisilumko, unengqondo, njengawe. 40Wena uya kuba yingangamsha yendlu yam, bazimase bonke abantu bam ngokwelizwi lakho; kusetroneni yodwa endiya kuba mkhulu kuwe. 41Wathi uFaro kuYosefu, Yabona, ndikumise phezu kwalo lonke ilizwe laseYiputa; 42uFaro wawukhulula umsesane wakhe esandleni sakhe, wawufaka esandleni sikaYosefu, wamambathisa ilinen ecikizekileyo, wafaka umxokelelwane wegolide entanyeni yakhe. 43Wamthabatha kweyesibini inqwelo abenayo; Badanduluka phambi kwakhe, besithi, Qubudani; wamenza umphathi welizwe lonke laseYiputa. 44Wathi uFaro kuYosefu, NdinguFaro; 45uFaro wamthiya uYosefu igama lokuba nguSafenati-paneha; wamnika uAzenati, intombi kaPotifare, umbingeleli wamnye, ukuba abe ngumkakhe. Waphuma uYosefu, waya kulo lonke ilizwe laseYiputa. 46uYosefu ebeminyaka imashumi mathathu ezelwe, ukuma kwakhe phambi koFaro, ukumkani waseYiputa. uYosefu wemka kuFaro, walicanda ilizwe laseYiputa. 47Umhlaba wavelisa ngendiphane ngeminyaka esixhenxe yendyebo. 48Wakubutha konke ukudla kweminyaka esixhenxe eyayikho ezweni laseYiputa, wakubeka ukudla emizini; ukudla kwamasimi ekupheleni kwemizi ngemizi, wakubeka khona. 49uYosefu wayihlanganisa ingqolowa yam, kunye nentlabathi yolwandle, yaninzi, wada walishiya inani; ngokuba lingena nani. 50uYosefu wazala oonyana bababini, wabazalelwa nguAzenati, intombi kaPotifare, umbingeleli wamnye, ingekafiki iminyaka yendlala. 51uYosefu wamthiya owamazibulo igama elinguManase, ngokuba wathi, uThixo undenze ndakulibala konke ukwaphuka kwam, nayo yonke indlu kabawo. 52Owesibini wamthiya igama elinguEfrayim, ngokuba uThixo wandihambisa emhlabeni weembandezelo. 53Yaphela ke iminyaka yosixhenxe yendyebo ekhoyo ezweni laseYiputa. 54Yaqala ukufika iminyaka yosixhenxe yendlala, njengoko wayekuthethile uYosefu. Yabakho indlala kumazwe onke; ke kulo lonke ilizwe laseYiputa kwakukho isonka. 55Lafa lonke ilizwe laseYiputa yindlala; abantu bakhalela isonka kuFaro; Wathi uFaro kuwo onke amaYiputa, Yiyani kuYosefu; yenza loo nto uyixelelwayo. 56Indlala yaligubungela lonke ihlabathi; uYosefu wazivula zonke izisele, wathengisa ngamaYiputa; yaba nkulu indlala ezweni laseYiputa. 57Lesuka ilizwe liphela, leza kuthenga ingqolowa kuYosefu eYiputa; ngokuba ibinkulu indlala kumazwe onke.
