Chapter 39

1 Ke kaloku uYosefu wahliswa wasiwa eYiputa. UPotifare, umbusi wakwaFaro, umthetheli wabasiki, umYiputa, wamthenga kumaIshmayeli, abemhlisele khona.
2 UYehova waba naye uYosefu, waba yindoda enempumelelo; waba sendlwini yenkosi yakhe, umYiputa lowo.
3 Yabona inkosi yakhe ukuba uYehova unaye, ukuba zonke izinto abezenza, uYehova ubezenza zibe nempumelelo esandleni sakhe.
4 UYosefu wababalwa emehlweni ayo, wayilungiselela; yamenza umveleli wendlu yayo, neento zonke ebinazo yazinikela esandleni sakhe.
5 Kwathi, ukususela ekubeni yamenza umveleli wendlu yayo neento zonke ebinazo, wayisikelela uYehova indlu yomYiputa lowo ngenxa kaYosefu. Yabakho intsikelelo kaYehova ezintweni zonke ebinazo, endlwini nasezindle.
6 Zonke izinto ebinazo yaziyekela esandleni sikaYosefu, ayakhathalela nanye into ebikuye, ingesiso isonka esidlayo. Ke uYosefu ebemhle isiqu, emhle imbonakalo.
7 Kwathi emveni kwezi zinto, umfazi wenkosi yakhe waphosa amehlo akhe kuYosefu, wathi, Ndilale.
8 Wamangala, wathi kumka-nkosi yakhe, Yabona, inkosi yam ayikhathalele nto ikum isendlwini, nezinto zonke enazo izinikele esandleni sam.
9 Akukho bani mkhulu kum kule ndlu; ayinqabisanga nento le kum, nguwe wedwa, ngokokuba ungumkayo; ndingathini na ke ukwenza obu bubi bukhulu kangaka, ndone kuThixo?
10 Kwathi, nakuba ebethetha kuYosefu imihla ngemihla, akamphulaphula yena ukuba alale ecaleni lakhe, nokuthi abe naye.
11 Kwathi kuloo mihla, wangena endlwini eya kusebenza umsebenzi wakhe; kwaye kungekho nanye yakumadoda endlu endlwini apho.
12 Wambamba ngengubo wathi, Ndilale. Wayishiya ingubo yakhe esandleni sakhe, wabaleka, waphumela phandle.
13 Kwathi, akubona ukuba uyishiyile ingubo yakhe esandleni sakhe, ubalekele phandle,
14 wabiza amadoda endlu yakhe, wathetha kuwo, esithi, Khangelani, usizisele indoda engumHebhere, ukuba idlale ngathi; izile kum, isiza kundilala, ndakhala ngezwi elikhulu;
15 yathi, yakuva ndiphakamisa izwi, ndikhala, yayishiya ingubo yayo ecaleni lam, yabaleka, yaphumela phandle.
16 Wayibeka phantsi ingubo yayo ecaleni lakhe, yada yafika inkosi yakhe endlwini yayo.
17 Wathetha kuyo ngokwaloo mazwi esithi, Size kum isicaka esingumHebhere, esi usizisele sona, ukuba sidlale ngam;
18 kuthe, ndakuliphakamisa izwi lam, ndikhala, sayishiya ingubo yaso ecaleni lam, sabalekela phandle.
19 Ithe, yakuweva inkosi yakhe amazwi omkayo awawathethayo kuyo, esithi, Senjenje isicaka sakho kum, wavutha umsindo wayo.
20 Inkosi kaYosefu yamthabatha, yamfaka entolongweni, kuloo ndawo apho amakhonkxwa okumkani abekhonkxwa khona, waba sentolongweni apho ke.
21 UYehova ubenoYosefu, wamthobela inceba, wenza ukuba athandwe ngumphathi wentolongo.
22 Umphathi wentolongo wawanikela kuYosefu onke amakhonkxwa asentolongweni, ukuze zonke izinto ezisukuba zisenziwa khona, abe nguye ozenzayo.
23 Umphathi wentolongo akakhathalelanga nto isesandleni sakhe, ngenxa yokuba uYehova ubenaye; zonke izinto ebesakuzenza, uYehova ubeziphumelelisa.
