Naizvozvo Dhavhidhi akaenda, iye navarume vana mazana matanhatu vaakanga anavo, vakasvika parukova Bhesori, pakasara vamwe vaakasiya. Asi Dhavhidhi wakateverera, iye navanhu vana mazana mana, nokuti vana mazana maviri vakanga vasara shure, nokuti vakanga vaneta kwazvo, vasingagoni kuyambuka rukova Bhesori. Vakawana muIjipiti kusango, vakauya naye kuna Dhavhidhi, vakamupa zvokudya, akadya, vakamupawo mvura yokunwa; vakamupawo chimedu chebundu ramawonde namasumbu maviri amadzambiringa akawomeswa; zvino wakati adya, mweya wake ukararamazve mukati make, nokuti wakanga asina kudya zvokudya, kana kunwa mvura, mazuva matatu nousiku hutatu. Dhavhidhi akati kwaari, “Uri waaniko? Unobvepiko?” Iye akati, “Ndiri jaya rakabva Ijipiti, muranda womunhu wavaAmareki; tenzi wangu wakandisiya, nokuti mazuva matatu akapfuura ndakarwara. Takanga tandopambara kurutivi rwezasi rwavaKereti, nokunyika yaJudha, nokurutivi rwezasi rwaKarebhi, tikapisawo Zikiragi nomoto.” Dhavhidhi akati kwaari, “Ungandiburutsira kuboka iro here?” Iye akati, “Ndipikirei naMwari kuti hamungandiurayi, kana kundiisa mumaoko atenzi wangu. Ipapo ndingakuburutsirai kuboka iro.” Zvino wakati amuburutsirako vakavawana vakapararira pasi pose, vachidya nokunwa, nokutamba pakati pezvizhinji zvavakanga vapamba, zvavakanga vatora kunyika yavaFirisitia nokunyika yavaJudha. Dhavhidhi akarwa navo kubva parubvunzavaeni kusvikira madeko ezuva repiri; kwakanga kusina munhu wakapukunyuka, asi majaya ana mazana mana, akanga akatasva makamera, ndiwo akatiza. Dhavhidhi akarwira zvose zvakanga zvatorwa navaAmareki; Dhavhidhi akarwirawo vakadzi vake vaviri. Vakanga vasina kurashikirwa nechinhu, kunyange chiduku kana chikuru, kana vanakomana, kana vanasikana, kana nhumbi; kana chinhu chipi nechipi chavakanga vatora; Dhavhidhi wakazvidzosa zvose.
