3 Ndipho hinyo ndugu kumi a Yusufu aphiya Misiri kpwendagula chakurya. 4 Ela Jakobo kayaruhusu Benjamini, mwanáo ndani mwenga na Yusufu, aphiye na nduguze, mana kala anaogopha sedze akaphahwa ni mai. 5 Phahi ana a Jakobo aphiya Misiri na atu anjina okala anaphiya kpwendagula chakurya, mana Kanani nako kala kuna ndzala.
6 Wakati hinyo Yusufu kala ndiye mkpwulu wa Misiri na kala ndiye aguziraye atu osi chakurya. Phahi nduguze Yusufu ariphofika, amgbwerera maguluni. 7 Yusufu ariphoona nduguze, waatambukira ela achidzihenda avi kaamanya, achigomba nao na usiru. Achiauza, “Mlaphi mwino?” Nao achimuamba, “Hula Kanani hukedzagula chakurya.”
8 Dzagbwe Yusufu waatambukira nduguze, ela aho taayamtambukira. 9 42:9 Mwandzo 37:5–10Iye watambukira ndosoze zoloha kuhusu nduguze na achiaambira, “Mu makachero mwimwi! Mkedzachunguza tsi yehu ili mmanye unyonje wa tsi yehu!” 10 Aho achiamba, “Hata bwana, swiswi atumishio hukedzagula chakurya. 11 Swiswi hosi hu ana a baba mmwenga. Bwana, swiswi sio makachero, hu atu aaminifu.” 12 Achiaambira, “Hata! Mwimwi mkedzalola tsi yehu ili mmanye unyonje wa tsi yehu.” 13 Achimuamba, “Swiswi atumishio kala hu ndugu kumi na airi a baba mmwenga akalaye tsi ya Kanani. Mwenehu wehu mmwenga tahunaye na chiziyanda akasala kaya na baba.” 14 Ela Yusufu achiaambira, “Kama nchivyokuambirani, mwimwi mu makachero! 15 Na hivi ndivyo ambavyo mundahakikisha kukala simwi makachero: Ninaapa kpwa dzina ra mfalume, kukala tamundauka hadi mdide wenu arehwe hipha. 16 Muhumeni mmwenga wenu akamuhale amrehe. Anjina mundatiywa jela hadi huhakikishe napho maneno genu ni ga kpweli. Na ichikala tamuna chiziyanda, phahi kama Farao arivyo moyo mwimwi mu makachero.” 17 Phahi Yusufu waatiya jela osi kpwa siku tahu.
18 Siku ya hahu, Yusufu waambira, “Mimi namuogopha Mlungu, na ichikala mundahenda dzambo ndirokuambirani sindakuolagani. 19 Napho mu atu aaminifu, mmwenga naasale mu jela, na anjina aphirike chakurya kaya kpwa atu enu agayao na ndzala. 20 Ela ni lazima munirehere chiziyanda wenu ili nihakikishe kukala mnagomba kpweli. Na ichikala ni kpweli sindakuolagani.”
Nao akubali kuhenda vira arivyoambirwa.
21 Chisha abisha nyo enye kpwa enye achiamba, “Kpweli hunatiywa adabu kpwa sababu ya hurivyomuhendera mwenehu wehu. Mana hwamuona vira arivyosononeka phohuvoya humrichire, ela tahuyamphundza; na ndiyo tabu hino huiphahayo.” 22 42:22 Mwandzo 37:21–22Rubini achiamba, “Dze! Siyakuambirani msimuhendere dambi yuya mvulana? Ela tamuyaniphundza. Sambi hunariphizwa kpwa sababu ya chifoche.” 23 Taamanyire kukala Yusufu anasikira gara agombago, mana kala achigomba naye na mtafusiri.
24 Yusufu wauka achendarira, chisha achiuya kpwedzagomba nao tsona. Wamuhala Simioni na achifungbwa mikono mbere zao.
Nduguze Yusufu anauya kaya
25 Yusufu walagiza magunia ga nduguze gaodzazwe chakurya, na chila mmwenga auyizirwe pesaze mwakpwe guniani na ahewe chakurya cha kurya njirani. Na gachihendwa. 26 Nduguze apandiza mizigo yao ya mtsere pundani na achiuka.
27 Ariphofika phatu phokala andalala usiku uho, mmwenga wavugula guniare ili amuphe pundawe chakurya, na achikuta pesaze mo mwakpwe guniani. 28 Achiaambira nduguze, “Pesa zangu zikauyizwa, mu mwangu guniani!” Maroho gaaguguta na achiuzana kpwa wuoga, “Ni shaka rani rino Mlungu?”
29 Ariphofika kaya kpwa ise yao Jakobo, ko Kanani, amsemurira mambo gosi gohendeka. 30 Amuambira, “Mkpwulu wa Misiri wahugombera kpwa usiru na achiuhenda avi hu makachero, hunachunguza unyonje wa tsi yao. 31 Ela swino huchimuambira, ‘Swiswi hu atu aaminifu, sio makachero. 32 Kukala hu ndugu kumi na airi, ana a baba mmwenga. Mmwenga tahunaye na chiziyanda wehu wasala kaya na baba hiko Kanani.’ 33 Halafu yuya mkpwulu wa Misiri achihuamba, ‘Hivi ndivyo ambavyo nindamanya kukala mu atu aaminifu. Mmwenga andasala phapha na anjina aphirike chakurya kaya kpwa atu enu agayao na ndzala. 34 Ela ni munirehere mwenenu wenu chiziyanda, ili nimanye kukala simwi makachero, bali mu atu aaminifu; ndipho nindakuuyizirani mwenenu wenu na mundakala huru tsi hino.’ ”
35 Ariphokala anakupula magunia gao, chila mmwenga wakuta mfukowe wa pesa mwakpwe guniani! Aho na ise yao ariphoona yo mifuko ya pesa agbwirwa ni uoga. 36 Ise yao Jakobo achiamba, “Mnalonda kunimarira anangu! Yusufu kapho, Simioni kapho; na sambi mnalonda muhale Benjamini. Chila chitu chinahendeka chinyume changu!” 37 Rubini achimuamba ise, “Ichikala sindamuuyiza Benjamini, olaga anangu airi alume. Nipha Benjamini nami nindamrinda na nindamuuyiza.” 38 Ela Jakobo achiamba, “Sindalavya mwanangu mkaphiya naye; nduguye wafwa na wasala iye tu. Achiphahwa ni utu uyi mo njirani nindafwa na mkunguru mana mimi ndipho ni mtumia.”
