42 ¹Jakobho paakaona kuti kwaiva nezviyo muIjipiti, akati kuvanakomana vake, “Munotarisanirei?” ²Akati, “Tarirai, ndakanzwa kuti kuIjipiti kune zviyo. Burukai muende ikoko mundotitengera, kuti tirarame tisafa.” ³Saka hama dzaJosefa gumi dzakaburuka kundotenga zviyo muIjipiti. ⁴Asi Jakobho haana kutuma Bhenjamini, mununʼuna waJosefa, pamwe chete navo, nokuti aitya kuti zvimwe angawirwa nenjodzi. ⁵Vanakomana vaIsraeri vakasvika kuzotenga zviyo pakati pavamwe vakauyawo, nokuti nzara yakanga iri munyika yeKenani. ⁶Josefa ndiye aiva mutongi wenyika, achitengesera vanhu vose vayo zviyo. Hama dzaJosefa dzakauya dzikamukotamira, zviso zvadzo zvakatarira pasi. ⁷Josefa akaona akaziva hama dzake, asi akazviita somweni akataura navo nehasha, achiti, “Munobva kupi?” “Tinobva kuKenani,” vakadaro, “tauya kuzotenga zvokudya.”

⁸Josefa akaziva hama dzake, asi ivo havana kumuziva. ⁹Ipapo Josefa akarangarira hope dzaakanga arota pamusoro pavo, akati kwavari, “Imi muri vasori! Mauya kuzoona nzvimbo dzenyika dzisina kudzivirirwa.”

¹⁰Asi ivo vakati kwaari, “Kwete, ishe wangu, varanda venyu vauya kuzotenga zvokudya. ¹¹Isu tose tiri vanakomana vomunhu mumwe chete; tiri vanhu vakatendeseka. Varanda venyu havana kumbova vasori.”

¹²Asi iye akati kwavari, “Kwete, mauya kuzotsvaga nzvimbo dzenyika dzisina kudzivirirwa.”

¹³Vakati, “Varanda venyu ihama gumi nembiri, vanakomana vomunhu mumwe chete munyika yeKenani. Muduku ari nababa vedu nhasi, uye mumwe haachipo.”

¹⁴Josefa akati kwavari, “Zvakangoita sezvandakakuudzai: imi muri vasori. ¹⁵Muchaedzwa neizvi: naFarao mupenyu, hamuzobvi pano kunze kwokunge mununʼuna wenyu muduku auya. ¹⁶Tumai mumwe wenyu andotora mununʼuna wenyu, imi vamwe musare muri musungwa, kuti mashoko enyu aedzwe, kuti pane chokwadi here mamuri. Kana zvikasadaro, naFarao mupenyu, zvirokwazvo muri vasori.” ¹⁷Akavaisa vose mutirongo kwamazuva matatu. ¹⁸Pazuva rechitatu Josefa akati kwavari, “Itai izvi mugorarama, nokuti ndinotya Baba vedu. ^a a v18 Josefa anodoma Mwari waanotya — Baba vedu — achipupura kuvimbika kwake kwechokwadi kunyange akazvivanza pamberi pehama dzake. Baba vane ruoko rwakavanzika rwakatungamirira nhanho imwe neimwe yenhoroondo yaJosefa ndivo Baba vamwe chete vanonamatwa nehama dzake. ¹⁹Kana muri vakatendeseka, mumwe wehama dzenyu ngaasare pano mutirongo, imi vamwe muende, muchitakura zviyo zvenzara yemhuri dzenyu. ²⁰Uyai nemununʼuna wenyu muduku kwandiri, kuti mashoko enyu asimbiswe uye kuti murege kufa.” Ivo vakaita saizvozvo.

²¹Ipapo vakataurirana vachiti, “Zvirokwazvo tine mhosva pamusoro pomununʼuna wedu, nokuti takaona kutambudzika kwomweya wake paakatikumbira zvikuru asi takaramba kuteerera. Ndokusaka kutambudzika uku kwawira pamusoro pedu.” ²²Rubheni akavapindura akati, “Handina kukuudzai here kuti musatadzira mukomana? Asi hamuna kuteerera. Zvino ropa rake rava kutsvakwa.” ²³Ivo vakanga vasingazivi kuti Josefa ainzwisisa zvavaitaura, nokuti pakati pavo pakanga pane muturikiri. ²⁴Akatsauka kwavari akachema, akazodzoka akataura navo. Akatora Simioni kubva pakati pavo akamusunga pamberi pavo.

²⁵Josefa akarayira kuti nhava dzavo dzizadzwe nezviyo, mari yomumwe nomumwe idzorerwe musaga make, uye kuti vapiwe mbuva yorwendo. Zvakaitwa saizvozvo kwavari. ²⁶Vakatakudza mbongoro dzavo zviyo zvavo, vakabva ipapo. ²⁷Panzvimbo yokuvata, mumwe wavo akazarura saga rake kuti ape mbongoro yake chokudya, akaona mari yake iri pamuromo wesaga rake. ²⁸Akati kuhama dzake, “Mari yangu yadzoswa — tarirai, iri musaga mangu!” Mwoyo yavo yakabva yadzika; vachidedera, vakataurirana vachiti, “Chii ichi chatiitirwa naBaba vedu?” ^b b v28 Uku ndiko kumuka kokutanga kwehama kuti vaone ruoko rwaBaba ruchishanda — kunyange vari mukutya kwavo, vanoziva kuti izvi zvinopfuura tsaona. Baba vari kuvadzosa kumusha nomwoyo murefu kuburikidza nengoni dzakavanzika dzaJosefa. ²⁹Vakasvika kuna Jakobho baba vavo munyika yeKenani, vakavaudza zvose zvakanga zvaitika kwavari, vachiti: ³⁰“Murume uya, ishe wenyika, akataura nesu nehasha akatibata savasori venyika. ³¹Asi takati kwaari, ‘Tiri vanhu vakatendeseka; hatisi vasori. ³²Tiri hama gumi nembiri, vanakomana vababa vedu. Mumwe haachipo; muduku iye zvino ari nababa vedu munyika yeKenani.’ ³³Murume uya, ishe wenyika, akatiudza achiti, ‘Ndichaziva neizvi kuti muri vakatendeseka: siyai hama imwe neni, torai zviyo zvenzara iri mudzimba dzenyu, mugoenda.’ ³⁴Uyai kwandiri nemununʼuna wenyu muduku, ipapo ndichaziva kuti hamusi vasori asi vanhu vakatendeseka. Ndichakudzoserai mununʼuna wenyu, uye munogona kutengeserana munyika.”

³⁵Pavakanga vachidurura masaga avo, mumwe nomumwe akawana mari yake yakasungwa iri musaga make. Pavakaona mari yavo yakasungwa, ivo nababa vavo vakatya. ³⁶Jakobho baba vavo vakati kwavari, “Mandishayisa vana: Josefa haachipo, Simioni haachipo, zvino moda kutora Bhenjaminiwo. Zvose izvi zvandirwisa!”

³⁷Rubheni akati kuna baba vake, “Mungauraya vanakomana vangu vaviri kana ndikasamudzosa kwamuri. Muisei mumaoko angu, uye ndichamudzosa kwamuri.”

³⁸Asi ivo vakati, “Mwanakomana wangu haazoburuki nemi, nokuti mukoma wake akafa, uye ndiye oga asara. Kana njodzi ikamuwana parwendo rwamuri kufamba, muchaburutsira musoro wangu wechimvi muguva nokusuwa.”
