Kana zvikasadaro imi neveimba yenyu navose vamunavo mungazova varombo.’
12 “Muri kuzvionera pachenyu, uye kana mununʼuna wangu uyu Bhenjamini, kuti ndini chaiye ari kutaura nemi. 13 Muudze baba vangu pamusoro pokukudzwa kwangu muIjipiti uye napamusoro pezvinhu zvose zvamaona. Uye muuye nababa vangu kuno nokukurumidza.”

21 Saka vanakomana vaIsraeri vakaita saizvozvo. Josefa akavapa ngoro, sezvakanga zvarayirwa naFaro, uye akavapawo mbuva yorwendo rwavo.
22 Akapa mumwe nomumwe wavo nguo itsva, asi akapa Bhenjamini mazana matatu amashekeri*makirogiramu angaita 3.5 esirivha nenguo shanu dzokupfeka. 23 Uye izvi ndizvo zvaakatumira kuna baba vake: Mbongoro hono gumi dzakanga dzakatakura zvinhu zvakaisvonaka zveIjipiti, nembongoro hadzi gumi dzakanga dzakatakura zviyo nechingwa nezvimwe zvembuva yorwendo. 24 Ipapo akaendesa hama dzake uye pavakanga voenda akati kwavari, “Musakakavadzana munzira!”
25 Saka vakabuda muIjipiti uye vakaenda vakandosvika kuna baba vavo Jakobho kunyika yeKenani. 26 Uye vakati kwavari, “Josefa mupenyu! Uye ndiye mutongi weIjipiti yose.” Jakobho akati rukutu; haana kuvatenda. 27 Asi pavakavaudza zvose zvakanga zvarehwa naJosefa kwavari, uye paakaona ngoro dzakanga dzatumirwa kwavari naJosefa kuti dzizovatakura, mweya wababa wavo Jakobho wakamutsiridzwa. 28 Uye Israeri akati, “Ndagutsikana!
