Dlulisela

UJehova wayenaye uJosefa, waba ngumuntu onenhlanhla; wayesendlini yenkosi yakhe yaseGibithe.

Yashiya konke okwayo esandleni sikaJosefa; yayingazi lutho olwayo, ukudla eyakudlayo kuphela. UJosefa wayengumgembeleza, eyigeza.

Umlindi wetilongo wanikela esandleni sikaJosefa zonke iziboshwa ezazisetilongweni; konke ezazikwenza khona nguyena owayekwenza.

Inkosi kaJosefa yamthatha, yamfaka etilongweni, indawo lapho iziboshwa zenkosi zaziboshwa khona; waba khona etilongweni. Kepha uJehova wayenaye uJosefa, wamupha umusa, wamenzela ububele emehlweni omlindi wetilongo.

Kwathi emva kwalezo zinto umkankosi yakhe waphonsa amehlo kuJosefa, wathi: “Lala nami.” Kepha wala, wathi kumkankosi yakhe: “Bheka, inkosi yami ayikwazi enginakho endlini, inikele konke okwayo esandleni sami; ayinkulu kunami kule ndlu; futhi ayingigodlelanga lutho ngaphandle kwakho kuphela, ngokuba ungumkayo; pho, ngingenza kanjani lobo bubi obungaka, ngone kuNkulunkulu na?”

Kwathi ngosuku lumbe engena endlini ukuyokwenza imisebenzi yakhe, kungekho lapho phakathi noyedwa owendlu, wambamba ngengubo yakhe, wathi: “Lala nami,” kepha washiya ingubo yakhe esandleni sakhe, wabaleka, wagijimela phandle.
