UGenesise 39:1-6

UJosefa wehliselwa eGibithe; uPotifari, inceku kaFaro, induna yabalindi, umGibithe, wamthenga esandleni sabakwa-Ishmayeli ababemehlisele khona. UJehova wayenaye uJosefa, waba yindoda enenhlanhla; wayesendlini yenkosi yakhe umGibhithe. Inkosi yakhe yabona ukuthi uJehova unaye, nokuthi uJehova wakuphumelelisa konke akwenzayo esandleni sakhe. UJosefa wafumana umusa emehlweni ayo, wayikhonza; yammisa phezu kwendlu yayo, nakho konke eyayinakho yakunikela esandleni sakhe. Kusukela esikhathini eyambeka ngaso ukuba abe yinduna phezu kwendlu yayo naphezu kwakho konke okwayo, uJehova wayibusisa indlu yowaseGibithe ngenxa kaJosefa; isibusiso sikaJehova sasiphezu kwakho konke okwayo endlini nasensimini. Wakushiya konke okwakho esandleni sikaJosefa; futhi wayengazi ukuthi ayoba nasiphi ngaphandle kwesinkwa ayesidlile. Futhi uJosefa wayeyindoda ebukekayo futhi ethandekayo.
